Henry had worn a mask all his life and his mother’s death had only hardened it. Made it harder to take off, made him suffocate more than ever.

But someone had to be the strong one. The grief had captivated them all, but it held their father captive like no one else.

It had fought him down, made him numb, had taken him away from them. Sometimes it was like he, too, had left them.

But someone needed to be there for the family, now that their mother wasn’t there anymore. Made sure to provide for them, made sure their father didn’t forget to eat, make sure Aiden got to still be a child.

He was only eight. Someone had to be strong for him, be there for him where their parents couldn’t be anymore. One because she was gone, the other because he was lost.

And so that someone had to be Henry. Life had to go on, no matter how much it hurt.

And the mask, well crafted over the years, well nurtured and strong, like the grip it had on him, helped him do it.

Without it, he would’ve crumbled. Under the loss, the pain, the responsibility. But it held its very own weight and one day, that weight grew too heavy.

The mask started to crack and all he wanted was to take it off and throw it away. And one day, he did.

He left, mask left lying in the grass, in the garden of his childhood half lived. And he was so glad, so relieved that he got rid off it that he forgot to bury it in the ground and instead, unbeknownst to himself, passed it on to his brother.

Imagine a scene where the main four are walking through the woods and Talon and Aiden are walking behind each other and the one who's in front pushes a branch out of the way and it accidentally snacks the person behind him (I'll leave it up to you who's in front and who gets accidentally smacked XD)

YES! Talon would be the one in the front and he’d do it on purpose (or rather because he simply doesn’t care)

I got my tiny crumb of Benvolio x Mercutio also, even though it was really tiny

The Romeo and Juliet musical was so good. Like SO good. It made me so happy, I’m still high from it. Best thing that happened to me this year, I swear

Talon: Aiden keeps trying to convince me to shower together to “save water and do good for the environment”

Aiden: I’m a biologist. I care about our planet

Halea: you care about seeing Talon naked

Aiden: as if I need an excuse for that, I could just ask and he’d do it, he can’t resist my convincing charm

Talon: Aiden!

Maya: gross. But also my question is, does Aiden succeed with convincing you to shower together?

Halea: I don’t think he needs much convincing tbh

Talon: …

Maya: Talon?

Talon: ……yes he does

Taiden from the outside is so funny cause there’s this very intimidating tall guard guy who looks like he will kill you of you annoy him but then he leans his head on Aiden’s shoulder and looks at him like a lovesick puppy and those images do not align xD

“I don’t know,” I said. It seemed to me like that was the motto of my life.

Bro I feel you 😭 also again, kinda Aiden coded

The book I’m currently reading has this quote that sums up (older) Aiden’s thoughts about death pretty well 😭

“This is the hardest part. Not dying. That is easy, because it’s inevitable. The hardest part is having the feeling that I leave you alone.”

Aesthetically pleasing photos I took today 😌

Spiritually, I think I’d fit in quite well in Berlin. Mentally, it confuses and scares me

Jamie absolutely drank out of the mug where he cleans his brushes in at least once during a stressful phase in his art studies

Aiden: C'mon... what's wrong, buddy?

Ákos: Can we check for monsters in the closet?

Talon: Monsters don't live in closets, they live inside of us

Aiden:

Talon: ...I said that out loud?

Ákos: 😭

Aiden: Talon, stop being edgy in front of the kids

Talon: says the one who said “existence is a prison” when you dropped your apple pie in front of my six year old nephew

@bunnymermaidsblog in my head that’s Jamie xD

One thing about me is that I love to clutter up my buildings in the Sims, which is why it’s a huge delight to work on the apartment of my kinda chaotic artist Sim/OC Jamie

Like hell yeah let’s make it messy

[writerfae]

Not me having a down day and my mom telling me i should be happy because I’m on vacation now. So what, I’m not allowed to be sad now?

How to better close off my birthday than with burning my arm on the stove 😫🤡
