#seasonal depression is so real.

i feel like death.

[wren-kitchens]

this is too short for fancy formatting have some dredge hermitcraft inspired by @/were-changing-cake-vaults’s fics and gem’s dredge theme for her base!

(there will be another fic out today/tomorrow depending on your timezone btw I just speedran this HLFHD)

gem avoids mirrors.

recently, she’s been finding herself unnerved by the appearance her reflection in windows and water and mirrors. she’s sure it’s fine—that her brain, addled by too little sleep, is beginning to warp her vision just the slightest bit and it’s manifesting in some kind of- anxiety over her self image. but- y’know, for the time being, gem thinks she’s gonna stop looking too hard at her reflection. just to keep her anxiety down, y’know. the new season really- it can get to you a bit, so- it’s just the new season. she’s fine.

but- there’s been.. a couple occasions. gem would be alone in a room, or stood in silence at the edge of the river, and she hears a kind of.. whisper coming from the reflective surface. there’s no doubt in gem’s mind that it’s just her tired ears playing tricks on her.

she’s never checked to see if it was, though.

“hey, gem.”

“yeah?”

“how many reels until I get mending?” 

gem snorts and glances over at grian for the first time since she arrived at his dock- and feels something in her chest sink a little. 

it’s not that- there’s nothing immediately wrong with him that seems to explain why gem feels this strange dread. something about the flecks of red and purple in his otherwise void-black eyes makes gem feel like she wants to run the other way and never look back, but- somehow, it’s familiar. almost comforting, bizarrely.

“did- are you okay?” grian’s voice cuts through gem’s thoughts and she realised that she zoned out. his eyes are scrunched ever so slightly in concern, and gem can see her reflection in them. she’s- gem doesn’t think she’s wearing glasses right now.

grian is still watching her, and gem has missed at least three bites on her rod. “i’m- when was the last time you slept?”

“why do-“ grian starts to say, but his attention is pulled away by a tug on his rod. gem watches as his eyes light up, as he grabs the rod and hauls the catch up onto the dock, watches as it is decidedly not a book, but a regular old codfish-

that’s not a regular cod.

before grian can even finish his startled mutter of “what the hell is-“, gem has lurched across the dock and grabbed the aberrant fish. she doesn’t remember making the decision to do so, but in a moment, the cod is sliced open—it’s three heads laying limply on the wood. in her hand is an old handkerchief—slimed with the innards of the cod. 

gem’s breathing is thick and fast, and she can just about hear grian’s asking what’s wrong over the rushing in her ears. a figure in the water catches her eye: a woman with black, circular glasses, a neat green dress and a purple shawl. the woman walks towards her from beneath the waves and speaks:

“I see that artefact you extracted.“ her voice reverberates inside gem’s mind, sounding as if she’s speaking from underneath the water. “come to me when the moon is at its highest. bring the artefact.”

gem feels herself shaking as the woman disappears, unable to tear her eyes away from where she stood. 

next to her, grian fishes up a mending book.

Can't wait for Atsushi to enter his depression era in the next episode

[welcometogrouchland]

See, on the one hand, I feel bad saying season 3 Luz is my "favourite" Luz era, because what I really mean is that I loved how far they were willing to take her character progression and how much of a risk it was to take this incredibly plucky and cheerful protagonist and launch her into full blown depression. I love every era of Luz from her bright, goofy, Paddington Bear-ass presence in season 1, to her still whimsical but fundamentally guilty and stressed progression in season 2, to the kid fighting to just stay alive in season 3, not because of any monsters or baddies or other supernatural threats. But because she genuinely wishes she wasn't alive right now (and they make that as explicit as they can with network restrictions and whatnot).

On the other hand I will never feel bad for calling season 3 Luz my "favorite" Luz era bc toh was brave enough to show it's protag turning (close to) 15 years old and immediately acquiring depression and I've never seen anything that's felt more true to my life. She Is My Holden Caufield
