Mirkwood television series with a soundtrack by Ethel Cain, Hozier, and Halsey.

And The Lumineers, for folksy whimsy.

all jokes aside, I think that haruka would be pretty quick to forgive majima for the whole kidnapping thing back in yk1. partly cause we know majima, who he is as a person, and how he feels about kids and whatnot, so I think it’s safe to assume he made it as clear as possible she was safe at the time and that he wanted kiryu to come and find her as much as she did. but moreover, one of haruka’s number one philosophies, despite all the shit she’s been through, seems to be that people are fundamentally good and thus almost always deserving of compassion and second chances. don’t get me wrong swooping in and taking her off the street was a stupid and reckless idea and I’m not saying it wouldn’t have freaked her out/hurt her emotionally or anything– but. (especially considering all the things she’d find out soon enough that majima does for kiryu– how many times he saves kiryu’s life and risks his own to do so, how he helps kiryu in his own weird ways, etc) I think she’d be much quicker than the average person to accept an apology and see through his persona scarily well to tell he’s got a much bigger heart than anyone really knows and deserves/needs a lot more compassion than he’s been given in his life. I really honestly think she would not hold a grudge, especially if she got at least one heart to heart with him, and would be capable of bonding with him if given the chance

#rambling #hope this made any sense hdghsg #it just sorta hit me cause of playing her in y5 and being able to really get a better read on her character and her morals and all that #they have like. actually a Lot of potential bond-wise and it’s a fucking tragedy we don’t get to see them really interact let alone have #any sort of deep conversation…….hhhghdhgh……..#anywho. yeah also was thinking about it because I think sometimes haruka gets mischaracterized in fandom as being alot more of a #cute-but-secretly-cold-hard-badass type of gal when. like. she’s not.#she’s resilient and can hold her own and is badass in her own way but she’s not cold in the slightest and her ability to empathize/#sympathize with people and forgive people and etc is Quintessential to who she is as a person #haruka #majima #long post

Me @ Netflix if they cut Foxglove and Hazel or A Game of You or yassify any of the girls

#sandman season 2 #a game of you #fucking bullshit man this comic say what you want in not saying there's nothing to criticize but christ #where else even today do you get queer women characters this un-polished and prettied up #to still be appealing looking to cishet men who are allowed to be messy and Problematic without #being punished by the narrative. And Wanda god she's a nerd she's a scene gal fashion wise she's everything #Barbie is desperately recovering any sense of identity at all and it's so compelling. I don't even trust netflix to do them justice #at this point but if the lesbians the fandom was least likely to find Palatable background extras aka the most human ones #are cut? If Wanda is yassified if Barbie is cut? Because we have to streamline everything and cut off everything that made #sandman unique to pull as many bucks as possible? Yes I AM going to take that #personally actually. It kinda does feel like a slap in the face. Queer women and women in general were the core fanbase of the comic for ye #but if they say fuck us when it's time to make $$?? Then fuck them right back. Bye #We don't need yet another time that if queer women aren't looking like models #they're not fit to be seen according to executives and audiences alike #also it goes without saying that if h0b g*dli*g gets one second more screen time than is necessary #I'm gonna chew my way thru Netflix hqs walls #Has he not taken over enough. The fandom is already insufferable about him #and I'm so fucken tired of it we DON'T need more #yes I know this is all fears and speculation. I WANT to be wrong. You don't know how happy I'll be if i have to eat my own words #But until then I'm so nervous

I expect nothing and still I am let down /ref

but fucking also

The one friend who’s being awful? She is literally dropping shifts at her job to hang out with her boyfriend, and she will not plan anything with any of her actual friends.

Lovely damn job, you have successfully pushed away the girl you claimed was your best friend, and wowie, she sure hasn’t forgiven, and she’s not willing to go back.

#Hi yea no that gal is me. I’m pissed. 80$ is the price of her friendship. But for someone who is not doing well money wise #Hate to see what she would try for if her best friend was rich #But oh fucking well I don’t wanna plan her wedding only to plan her divorce #She’s dug her grave #Refuses to listen to friends or common sense #And now she’s gotta lay in the grave she dug #And I’m gonna help shovel the dirt on top of her #Notable changes in myself these last handful of weeks. No longer taking any shit. I was far too nice.#And people took that for granted.

Scars and bruises - a SWTOR short

Her master’s skin tans easily, so much so she jokes that Tatooine wanted to turn her as red as her fiery hair, but so too does it apparently easily bruise. They are strolling the path leading to Kallikori village on Tython, revelling in the survival from the Planet Prison, when Kira sees it properly – a long, deep purple bruise swelling on her master’s cheek.

“Master, what happened to your face?”

Daefi turns her head as they walk, brow furrowing in confusion.

“You mean, ah..” with one hand she gestures to the whole left side of her face where the tan skin bears deep burn scarring, a remnant of her pre-Jedi youth. “This?”

“No, you told me about that, Master, I meant this bruise.” Kira lifts a hand too, channelling a little Force healing as she points to the injury. Daefi touches it too, and for a moment her shoulders tense and the corners of her mouth droop. Then it passes, and she relaxes again, waving a hand to move a fallen tree from their path.

“It was a blow from the Emperor, on board Darth Angral’s ship.” She says. But though Daefi’s voice is calm her words pass through Kira like an icy chill and she stops in her tracks. Deep in her mind, the healing hollow where that depraved voice used to whisper shudders, and when she clenches her palms they are suddenly sticky with sweat. “Kira?”

“I did that.” Kira whispers, her mind reeling all over again and her gaze fixing on that bruise. “I did- ”

“Kira.” When Daefi speaks like this, her voice seems to tremor the ground itself. Certainly it snaps Kira out of her trance and she blinks, looking up at her master. Daefi has stopped too, a pace or so ahead of her onetime-padawan, and gazes down at her with green eyes that are far too piercing and luminous to be entirely human. But her expression isn’t pinched with severity or furrowed in anger, and she moves those two paces back to Kira and lays her hands on her shoulders, her head tilting and her voice soft as the air once more. “You did not do this, Kira. The Emperor did, and it is nothing.”

“Yeah but-”

“No-one holds you culpable, least of all me.”

“Still, I…” Kira’s throat feels very tight all of a sudden, and she looks away from her master’s all-seeing gaze and towards the lush mountains and waterfalls that feed Tython with the Living Force. “I’m sorry.” She mutters at last. Daefi’s hands, their palms as roughly scarred as her face, squeeze her shoulders.

“You have nothing to be sorry for. You are strong and courageous, and have overcome trials of a magnitude few Jedi will ever face.”

Kira looks back up at her master in time to see the gentle smile cross her face. “I’m very proud of you, Kira. I hope I say that enough.”

“Well they didn’t knight me for nothing, huh?” Kira shrugs, the storm clouds retreating and clearing her mind. Daefi lowers her hands from her shoulders.

“Indeed they did not.” With a smile that Kira can’t help but return, Daefi gestures up their path, to the village and the help they had promised there. “Shall we?”

“Lead the way, Master.”

#i love my swtor gals #my jedi knight is baby #wise baby #but baby #kira carsen deserves the world #the emperor can go do one #swtor #swtor jedi knight #swtor fic #kira carsen #angst with a happy ending #SWTOR: Daefi
