im my own personal post-canon for hs, hal gets a body bc he wasnt yeeted into a fucking sprite, so he gets to experience the world once again like he was able to when he was dirk. but he has also diverged from dirk in a way that he is a distinct entity, and decides to keep the name hal to signify this. and he gets to do whatever the fuck he wants

Something that always really resonated with me in The Perks of Being A Wallflower was the line right near the end when Charlie says "there are people who forget what it's like to be 16 once you turn 17" and maybe it's just because I was 16 the first time I watched the movie and I felt like nobody ever listened to me because I was young, but I promised myself I would not forget what it was like to be 16, or any age that I had been, and that I would extend the respect and understanding that I so craved to others. And I forget to do that sometimes, but whenever I play the perks soundtrack on vinyl (cause I'm a 2014 hipster in my spare time) that speech plays into the last track and I hear it and remember that I need to do that. So anyways if you're 16 and you feel like nobody ever listens to you or remembers what being 16 felt like I'm sorry. I promise I do. Relish in the good parts while you have them and know the bad will be over soon 💚

You do not reply
A god content to die,
If only I would not pray
Oh if only I would not stay
Would not believe.
As long as I shall breathe
I shall call your name
A flickering, still burning flame.
You do not reply
And I do not stop loving you.
It is not out of principle
But something astrophysical,
A binding beyond time or space
A force immune to decay, to waste.
Kindness begat love and the kindness stayed
Even as you left.
All the love that was from you cleft
Could not be removed from me
Was mine to keep, to be.
Even as you left, as you waned meek
My god is still mine to keep.
Now you can do no good for me
Have not the power to break brutality
Not the voice to even speak.
I do not stop calling into your silence
I do not stop loving you.

the thing that really pisses me off about a lot h*ikav*h discourse is that quite frankly a lot of the arguments for them (and tbh any ship) being romantically involved... sounds like shit you do with a good friend you care about to the point of sacrificing some of your perceived personal comfort for?
like it also feels like it hinges on alh*itham not being capable of compassion unless he's in love with the person which.... ?? and it all just irks me in a way that i'm rolling my eyes at both the people yelling that "they have to be lovers" and the people yelling that "you shippers are idiots"
