As , the United States, potentially heads into another forever war I can only think of this quote.

Coming to tumblr from pinterest is like, wow, it's just like the screenshots said it would be like. I feel like a fantasy protagonist who's traveled to a land they only read about from manuscripts.

Unsure fingers folded the beak, her thumb slipping on the edge of the paper, leaving a smear of blood behind.

River ignored the stinging and focused on folding the tail, making sure to smooth out the wrinkles.

She remembered the lumpy origami rabbit Simon had given her back then, back before she'd left for the Academy (and changed and broke and - no, no, don't think about about it - ).

The body had been wonky, the ears uneven but it hadn't mattered. Not to her. Absent-mindedly, she wondered what had happened to it. They'd taken all her things, all her memories and all her dreams.

(Trampled underfoot, thrown away like a broken doll. It made her heart ache).

Folding the last foot, she cradled it in the clammy palm of her hand, careful not to crumple it. It wasn't perfect but ge-ge wouldn't mind.

Untangling her legs from the blankets, she stood up and silently made her way to Simon's room, avoiding the squeaking grate.

His door opened with a quiet whoosh, the noise barely audible over his soft snores.

Gently, she put the origami rooster down on his chest, feeling his heart beat-beat-beating.

"You weren't late," she whispered. He didn't answer her but she didn't mind. He didn't need to.

Quietly, River crept back to her own room, her thumb no longer stinging.

Author's note ->

I'm not dead! I promise! My theory of literature and creative writing portfolios are just trying to kill me.

Anyway, the reason why River folded him a rooster is because roosters can symbolize punctuality.

that's a happy ending, kindness in action can do some good here and there.

i don’t think people understand how much of life is grief. not just people dying, but losing the version of yourself you thought you’d become. grieving the city you had to leave. the friends you lost not in argument, but in silence. the summer that will never come back. the feeling that maybe you peaked at 12 when you were reading books under the covers and believing in forever
