all goofing aside I genuinely don't understand the urge to reimagine Taylor Allison Swift as a secretly queer icon when the pop music scene(TM) is like. literally overflowing with women who actually like women. Gaga and Kesha and Miley and Halsey are right there. Rina Sawayama and Hayley Kiyoko and Rebecca Black and Kehlani and Victoria Monét and Miya Folick if you're willing to get slightly less top 100. Janelle and Demi for them nonbinary takes on liking girls. like what are we doing here. like I'm not even saying you can't enjoy Taylor but why would you hang all your little gay hopes on her.

#op i am in love with you #the tumblr experience

Choose Your Own Adventure!

Carter's still looking at him, and Barnes knows, no matter how hard he tries not to know, that Carter would kiss him back if he were to lean in, press their mouths together.

Indulge.

He can't. He can't afford to add this to the equation here- between the veins and the weather and the world turning to shit, between however he might be feeling or however Carter might be-

It wouldn't be fair. To any of them.

Barnes turns his head to the sky, the stars swimming above him, and takes a deep breath.

He's good at waiting.

Choose Your Own Adventure!

"What's a specialler occasion than this? We cleared quarantine, the rain's let up just enough to see some stars. And there's just the two of us, don't even need to share it four ways."

Barnes hesitates, torn. Yeah, tonight's not a bad night for it, but Barnes doesn't know if he'll come across a rum this good again. He holds it in his hands, eyes running over the bottle as he considers it, and then the bottle's gone.

"Too late," Carter says, biting down on the cork and pulling it free. Barnes laughs, the weight of decision lifting off his shoulders, and reaches for the bottle. Carter lets him take it, have the first drink.

"Where'd you even get this, then?" Barnes asks, handing the bottle over. Carter grins wickedly, winks.

"Some things are best left to the imagination," he says, taking a hefty swig. He's- he's not even savouring it, just aiming to get as pissed as possible.

"Hey!" Barnes nudges him, and Carter relents. "Leave some for the rest of- leave some for me."

Carter hands it back wordlessly. A rare moment of quiet from him. The neck of the bottle is warm from Carter's grip, and when Barnes takes a sip he can almost taste where Carter's been.

Hm.

Maybe he's feeling the alcohol more than he thought he was. He glances at Carter, fully aware how bloody red he gets when he's embarrassed, but Carter's leaned back now, gazing up at the stars.

"Thank you, for this," Barnes says quietly, adjusting himself to get more comfortable. The rum tastes like long nights on the open sea, like crew crowded together, like the first night docked in a new port. He closes his eyes, and without the input from his vision he can imagine the wind in the trees as the sound of distant waves, the press of Carter's arm into his as any crewmate. He blinks his eyes back open, and the swirl of stars above them both threatens to overwhelm him.

Carter shrugs with one shoulder, feeling for the bottle. His fingers press into Barnes's as he tries to take it, and after a moment of resistance, Barnes relents. "You deserve to let go sometimes, too," Carter says. "Indulge in something for once in your life, eh?"

Barnes feels his heart pick up, the blush crawl back over his cheeks, down his neck. Maybe it's the alcohol or maybe it's the night, or maybe it really is the reflections of the stars he can see in Carter's eyes. Indulge.

He's not so good at that.

Carter's still looking at him, and Barnes knows, no matter how hard he tries not to know, that Carter would kiss him back if he were to lean in, press their mouths together.

Indulge.

#aauuughhh this is a good one #somebody help him!#rqg

Kind of hilarious to me how poorly the title "Mob Psycho 100" localized to English-speaking areas. To someone whose first language is English, it scans as:

Mob (Yakuza, Mafia)

Psycho (violent person with "crazy" behaviors)

Thus: a particularly violent member of organized crime.

But in Japanese it scans as:

Mob (background characters in crowd scenes in manga or anime)

Psycho (short for psychic)

Thus: a psychic who looks/acts like someone you'd never pick out of a crowd scene in a comic.

This is my first time relistening to the entire Dover/Channel Crossing, and oh boy has it been a wonderful, painful, bittersweet time.

Seeing Zolf struggle with his faith and his cult hurts now. And I know it gets much worse for him before it gets better, but it does get better for him. He finds another avenue for his faith, one that fits him better. One that allows him to save so many of his friends (and ultimately the world) on his terms. (And seeing the faith Hamid and Sasha put into him by joining him on the crossing).

Seeing Sasha make so many friends is so so wonderful. She’s got that awkward but genuine charm that draws good people in. And she does go on to connect with and help so many people (even though we only see a small part of that).

Seeing Barnes is so nice, and getting to know him as the straight laced commander is fun. All of the interactions with him are tinged with the knowledge that he will come back, for good and for painful. He genuinely wants to be friends with Sasha, and they would have been such good friends I think. But they never meet again. She would’ve loved the Carnes and Barter Barnes and Carter team up.

#ughhhh #just constantly thinking about the possibilities of sasha making it out of rome and connecting with all these people #rqg

Choose Your Own Adventure!

Barnes sits up, attention focused on the edge of the roof above his window. Carter sure is taking his sweet time.

He watches the edge of the roof for a moment longer, then gets on his hands and knees and crawls over.

"Carter?" He says quietly, and springs back away from the edge as Carter's head pops up, all wide eyes and eager grin.

"Take this," Carter says, and he's swinging a backpack over the eave and into Barnes's hands.

"Uh-"

"And move over so I've got room, c'mon."

Barnes rocks back on his heels, enough so that Carter can scramble back up, take his pack and scoot back up the roof. The bag clinks with the telltale sound of glass bottles jostling together, and Carter dives right in.

"Couldn't find it at first, thought maybe you'd already gotten to it for a moment. But then I was like, c'mon Carter, Barnes wouldn't do that, y'know?" He pulls a bottle out by its neck, and it's dark out here on the roof but Barnes can see enough, could recognise that silhouette anywhere.

"You didn't," he says fondly, and can feel his cheeks burn with it. Only ever the best stuff with Carter, and he knows how to treat his team. Barnes takes the bottle from him, examining it slowly.

"Go on, then. Rum's only as good as it is when you're drinking it."

Barnes's grip tighten involuntarily, just for a moment. "Don't wanna save it for a special occasion?"

Carter scoffs and he makes to swipe it, but Barnes pulls away. Carter's hand rests on his thigh for balance, just for a second, and then he's able to support himself again. "What's a specialler occasion than this? We cleared quarantine, the rain's let up just enough to see some stars. And there's just the two of us, don't even need to share it four ways."
