Every little thing that you have ever told him about you, stuck to his mind like glue.

Your voice would play over and over in his mind similarly to catching an ear worm from a catchy song.

Your slightly calloused hands were always cold while his were warm.

In his eyes, that meant you two complemented each other.

Fire and Ice.

In his eyes, the world was a dark place, but he didn’t see you as his light.

As his savior.

Leon saw the tiredness within your eyes, the dark circles that made you look slightly intimidating.

Oh, how he hated that. He would see glimpses of sparkles that would twinkle within your eyes, glimpses of heavenly light shining down on you whenever you smiled or laugh.

Happiness was such a perfect look on you in his eyes.

Just like you, he too suffered from the cruelty of the world. His eyes no longer shinning as bright and innocently as they use too. No longer filled with the hope and optimism that once made him feel invincible.

Now, he felt nothing but dread.

Dread of the future and dread of the unknown.

He has lost a lot of people close to him… but when his eyes laid upon you, he felt a pull and he couldn’t truly explain until he finally talked to you and once, he did, he realized that you two were kindred spirits and once came to that realization, he concluded that he couldn’t lose you.

He wanted to help you.

To save you.

He didn’t want you to continue to suffer in this world and to question your own existence because of said suffering.

Is this love? Obsession? Or him simply being empathetic? He couldn’t tell as he never put much deep thought about his feelings for you.

But if there was one thing he was positive about, was that you needed him as much as he needed you because in his eyes,

You’re just too important to him to just let die.

And if he must lock you away from this harsh world, then he’ll do it.

Your safety is his number one priority.

#I was writing and I ended up subconsciously writing about Leon 😭#your safety his is number one priority but his sanity isn’t #I’ve been on this site for years and I don’t believe I ever wrote a short fic about any of my fave characters before lol #yandere leon kennedy #yandere leon kennedy x reader #leon kennedy x reader #yandere resident evil #leon x reader #leon x male reader

Larian stop making useless fixes to things no one asked for and instead let me convince Squire to come back to camp with me so Isobel can be reunited with her pooch dammit 😭

#give Isobel her pooch back Ketheric doesn't deserve it #Squire and Aylin form the protect Isobel squad #i sure hope one of them can cast sanctuary on her sonce that's rule number one in any fight #isobel can make one of those knitted sighthound hoods for Squire with floppy little knitted ears #AUGH AUGH AUGH #Aylin: beloved your dog is scaring.... everyone #Isobel: nonsense #meanwhile Squire is making everyone book it with that thousand yard dead green stare #baldur's gate 3 #and you know.... fix the myriad of bugs #but priorities

back to thinking about that worst timeline princess AU concept where luz and hunter end up with camila in the human realm when camila hasn't met vee and doesn't know about the isles. & so camila thinks that the two of them have just been held captive together for years.

i'm mainly thinking about my 100% certainty that luz would develop a Crippling case of agoraphobia for..... very obvious reasons. double-checked the definition just now because i was like "i'm pretty sure it's no longer referred to as a fear of being outside??" and yeah -- it's a fear of being in environments where you'll be helpless or unable to escape if something goes wrong. which. well. you guys know what she's gone thru.

that combined with the general confusion and sensory overload of the human world.... i think luz would get Very Very Very Upset if she was forced to leave the house. and going anywhere without hunter especially is a non-starter. like one of u guys said a few days ago, the sheer LEVELS that her separation anxiety would ratchet up to.... she's basically following him to the bathroom whenever he gets up and sitting outside the door like a lonely cat. i don't even want to CONSIDER the kind of breakdown she'd have if she was made to go out with camila to, like, a completely normal therapy appointment.

#on hunter's end he isn't afraid of being in the human world by himself but #he IS afraid of luz being in the human world (too many unknown variables) (cannot protect her)#and is terrified of being separated from her. about as terrified as luz is of separation from him.#therefore he has functionally the same restrictions on Not Going Anywhere #mostly just thinking about camila trying to learn very very very fast how to help a daughter who is So Unstable #when obviously letting luz and hunter spend 20 hours a day sleeping and moving as little as possible is not sustainable #but ~traditional~ recovery methods like dragging your kid to doctor and therapy and group therapy appointments are. extremely likely to #retraumatize her. camila's number one priority is luz feeling safe and considering camila a safe trustworthy person #fuck any and all Tough Love advice. shes gonna let luz n hunter breathe & she's gonna fret horribly about it #i dunno. i'm migraine. this means i'm thinking about luz and hunter being clingy and crazy #toh #princess luz au #horrible mindscape trauma pals #princess luz au worst timeline #camila noceda

Winston saying "You're cold and I don't respect that" to Maggie I was like "this is heartbreaking and also confirms that Maggie is autistic"

#Not because she's “cold”#She's not #She's not cold #Her career and her interest are the number one priority and most important thing in her life #And she doesn't understand that it's not the same for Winston #So when Winston is like “you're my number one priority”#Maggie is like “wtf MY number one priority is my career and so should yours be”#To which Winston says “mcscuse me??? My CAREER????”#Grey's Anatomy

#your number one priority as an employer should be making sure your employees are happy and work is being done #how do people think its okay to start a meeting with ‘due to everyones paycheck not being certain next month’#like #fuck #thanks thats not putting any anxiety on to me at all #they started going on about redundancy #i think you don’t qualify for redundancy unless youve been there for 15 years #the oldest member of the team has been there for 5/6 years max #how is everyone in the team not meant to freak out exactly?#people have rent to pay #sorry besties im freaking out #mega sucks too because i was massively enjoying this job and finally found myself excelling expectations #like really i live month to month and i am not the only one #how are we meant to live?#i better start applying to jobs #this makes it soo much worse that i refused the other job offer i had 2 months ago because i was most likely going to get promoted soon here #noww theyre most likely shutting the entire business down #sheeeesh #update i was wrong #redundancy pay is if youve been employed for more than 2 years #so thats 4/9 team members that can get redundancy pay #ive only been there 8 months #but at least others can get redundancy pay for a couple of weeks

idk its just very frustrating to me that feminism has regressed. for so many reasons and sources. terfs, whatever brand of feminism is happening on tiktok. people using trans women as gotchas when they dont even care about trans women and their issues. its all so frustrating and it makes me angry

#elisey speaks #the last one makes me especially angry. its so backhanded and sinister #pretending to be an ally but you just dont care. its evil #and more and more people seem more concerned with terfs' hating men than transmisogyny #like. i dont know!! it frustrates me so much! i think your priorities are incredibly skewed!#this website can be sooo transmisogynistic so i am ending my rant with love transfems more than you hate terfs #protecting transfems should be your number one priority. and i am serious

hgs brainrot has returned due to tbosas .. speaking of hgs here’s an ask abt the hgs au: if things were totally different, and Wilbur were to be a 12 victor, what do you think a possible mentor-tribute dynamic would look like between him & Niki? I feel like it would be similar to Snow & Lucy in the way that he’s just going out of his way to cheat n help her

anon u have in fact struck jackpot because this is a concept i was spinning some thoughts abt before bee mentioned avoxes and we went OOOOH at that!!! so yes i have considered rainduo as a mentor-tribute dynamic and would love to talk about that concept too :]

so for this concept i think wilbur and niki would be close friends throughout childhood from 12, and then in their teens wilbur is reaped and, well, no one has particularly high hopes (he's a writer and a musician at heart, not a fighter) but through sheer trickery and dumb luck, he makes it to the end of the games. wilbur pulled some pretty fucked up tricks to win - when you can't use brute force, you have to use your brain - and partly due to the trauma of the games, partly due to his shame and survivor's guilt, he sinks into the capitol and relishes a new life there as a socialite. to him, the old wilbur died in the games and the new one has taken his place - to niki, and to his other friends in 12, whatever the games did to him made him into every vapid heartless capitol victor there is.

or. niki has her doubts. they all saw how horrible the games were, but surely there is some part of him left, some part that's hurting, even if it's buried deep?

anyway.

like og spin of the au, niki is reaped and this sucks - this time she does expect wilbur as her mentor on the train, and she expects some kind of warm welcome (maybe even an apology for leaving them so suddenly and silently? an explanation?) but she gets jack shit. wilbur is jaded and cruel and unrecognisable and niki entirely hates it. this is the part where i REALLY WISH we got some time of those two beefing with each other directly in canon (or at least interactions while niki was So Mad at him) but it's okay we fly blind. niki feels abandoned, lonely, thrown off of her kilter - she expected an ally in this place, but she doesn't recognise the person wilbur has become. she doesn't recognise his shallowness (...much), his ruthless advice for the arena, the way he doesn't seem to care for anything. she's scared and now she's lonely and it pisses her off - their mentorship is fraught. here are some thoughts from discord on that:

i tend to think of niki as a bit naïve before l'manberg or even doomsday - i think this is an au where this streak would come out real strong, and niki is stubborn that she can get through the games without losing herself. stubborn that she can stop things, that she can protect people. i don't think wilbur is cold enough (or, really, can bear to say aloud) to say that her odds in the arena are slim enough as it is, but he definitely tells her that she's making enemies and that her odds of survival dwindle with the more trouble she causes.

beyond that... hm. niki's trust in wilbur is almost unshakeable until nov 16, even when she outright says she doesn't recognise him anymore. i think she'd reluctantly listen re: don't burn down any buildings, but she would grow bolder each day she had to stay in the capitol. she gets more honest in front of the cameras. she makes more friends in training, and not the ones wilbur recommends. she throws barbs at him every time he makes one of those callous, cold-hearted comments about other tributes and rankings and odds. and besides, she's going in the arena this time, not him. she needs to practice her bravery.

it's like... she hasn't given up on him. she thinks the old wilbur is in there somewhere. (she is wrong. that is not how trauma works.) but she won't hold her tongue just because she

for extra angst points could definitely play up the whole 'feeling abandoned' angle between them as niki goes into the arena - probably due to how fraught their friendship gets leading up to the games. niki wants to focus on them and their friendship, wilbur has stringently cut off (almost) everything from 12 and refuses to let her in; he tells her to behave for the cameras, she tells him she never will. i think the last point in that screenshot would also make for a super tasty argument where niki feels wilbur has gone astray, that he's abandoned 12, and that he'll probably do nothing but sit on his ass and watch her die and he can't even bring himself to care about her anymore, can he? just more fodder for the arena. and honestly, i think wilbur would passively agree with most of that - he values niki's opinion, after all, even now, and if she says he's rapidly descending into a lost cause then she must be right. and it's niki, so she will be fine, and he goes to his bedroom that night and tries to pretend he is sleeping perfectly fine instead of feeling paralysed with fear.

okay now onto the games - YES HE SO WOULD. or at least i think he would go out of his way to help. as for cheating - he's a recent victor for 12 and i think he would value tommy (no doubt a link to him... i think they'd be in touch in this au also) too much to risk the punishment falling onto him as well. i get the vibes this is a games closer to 74th than 10th, so there are far fewer opportunities to cheat and the consequences of getting caught are higher. but schmoozing up sponsors? making stupid ass radio interviews or whatever to talk up niki's odds? sharing anecdotes from their childhood - some real, some entirely fabricated - across capitol airwaves to stoke their sympathy? 100%. with less to lose in this au, i think niki would be far less inclined to play nice for the cameras - i hope you starve, she spits at one of them, and wilbur appears on a talkshow two days later as she scrambles for survival in the arena to talk up how she always saved loaves from the bakery for the poorest mothers and children in 12. he borrows and begs and swindles to the point where it feels like cheating. but hey, this new wilbur is capitol-branded. he knows how to play the game.

if anything he probably sinks into the game a little too much. self-preservation is not his forte. probably wracks up a few heavy debts and favours to owe, but those are not priority until niki is out of the arena, alive. as long as she wins, and as long as the family he has isn't in danger, he will manage. wow it would suck if at some point those two goals became impossible to co-achieve. anyway

i kind of see niki's victory in the arena being similar to the one in the main au - if only because planning out an entire games is hard for meee >-< . she walks in bolder and braver for sure, and with a less strategic pick of allies, but they all get picked off and she spends a few weeks so terrified she can barely sleep and then she ruptures some fuel line and sets the arena alight with a fire that burns brighter and more ravenously than it should. but she wins, and she's airlifted out of a filthy, muddy creek she had resigned herself to die in, and wilbur barges his way through as many peacekeepers so that he can actually see her with her burnt skin and hair and unfocused eyes and trust that what was on the screens wasn't a fluke, and that they made it. and then it's just a matter of surviving the after.

i'm sure there are some other random quirks or tidbits i can think of re: this take on a c!rainduo hunger games au but these are my base thoughts!!

#can i just say whatever the hell lucy grey n snow had going on in part 1 made me so berko btw. like congrats ur my means to an end youre my #symbol youre my buddy? should we kiss? i'll get you out of here / don't make me leave these people behind #BRIDGING OFF OF THE TBOSAS DISCUSSION. i think the thing with crainduo (or at least how i like to depict them) is that they care about each #other extremely deeply and value each other... without being each others number one priority at all times.#i don't think niki plays priority with people she cares for like that; see her relationships with like wilbur and eret in lmanberg #even her friendship with and offering ponk a place to stay in her city after manberg even tho manberg hurt her #as for wilbur: his priority is tommy. like always. if it was just him on the line he'd do anything to get niki thru but it's not #asks #hunger games au #they would truly be such a nightmare in this au like. wilbur's self loathing is SO HIGH due to survivors guilt and trauma and mental illnes #he thinks that niki is So Good and Has It Together meanwhile he is So Bad #and is a mess that she cannot possibly rely on him. she can't possibly need him. she can't possibly want him around #<- and this shit is INGRAINED like. it's not even an active thought pattern anymore it is carved into his brain like a groove #and so shes like. do you even care whether i live or die??#of course he does. but this is the capitol. he cant be vulnerable in a way that matters #and that alienates niki further and this rage and heartbreak is building in her with nowhere to go. and in the arena she thinks it erupts #nah uh. i think its AFTER the area when she has to face wilbur again that she would go full screaming meltdown #ANYWAY !! i really like aus where they have this friction esp because i think like.. idk i think sometimes our views of rainduo are too ros #wilbur kind of forgets about niki sometimes because his self hatred is that bad. niki doesnt get wilburs mental illness and takes it both a #a burden/blame AND a direct rejection of her and her friendship #and they hover just outside of each others spaces anxious and angry and almost self flagellating. GOOD FOR THEM !#anyway Yes this did unlock something within me. thanks anon feel free to add on if u had more thoughts esp re: tbosas and such bc i had suc #a good time watching that movie

Personal venting incoming

So. My dad. He's completely forgotten two birthdays in my life: my 18th (which, yknow, left a lasting impression) and this year's (not a milestone, but after missing the one where I became an adult.. it stings).

Both times his excuse is the same: "I had a cold!"

Except I know for a fact he was up in the mountains skiing on my birthday this year. So it's not like that cold wiped him out or anything. He just. Forgot. My birthday.

No, there is nothing wrong with his memory.

And I can't say anything to him about it because right now I am relying on his monetary assistance to, yknow, pay rent, buy groceries, etc.

#personal #He tries to be a good dad sometimes #and then he pulls shit like this #if you have kids #NEVER forget their birthdays #even if you're sick #if you're divorced or separated with kids #never shit-talk your ex to your child #never use your child as a pawn to one-up your ex #YOUR CHILD NEEDS TO BE YOUR NUMBER ONE PRIORITY #if they're not they'll know #and it'll hurt them for the rest of their life #my relationship with my dad is so toxic #but I can't cut him off #and I still crave his love and approval #but I wish I didn't

Well hello there kind person, here to deliver a package. It's from a very tired girl with a love for cute things. Who is also making her life a bit more difficult by starting a fic rec blog hmm hmmm, but we will not talk about that. ANYWAY here is the package

🥺🐼🥺 you’re the best friend anyone can ask for. I love my little package, thank you so much. I love pandas 🐼 (did you know that I have a saved folder on my instagram named aaliyah that’s filled with only panda videos i want to send you but haven’t had the energy to actually send you? bc I do, they’re not many but the longer I don’t send them the more are gonna pile up)

I hope you’re feeling a bit less tired soon! get some rest and a break with the least amount of stress possible 🫂 maybe we both can find a branch and lay on it like this panda and hope our problems get lost in the jungle while trying to follow us

#also from your other tags: okay bit I’ll probably feel bad anyway #bc it’s my standard right now #feeling bad for everything I should do but don’t/can’t #but I do try to prioritize myself I promise #well my number one priority is eating but then it’s myself 😂

early s4 kenshiv was like. the only way we can have fun and fill the gaping holes in our chests is by recklessly blowing billions of dollars on trying to one up daddy and pissing him off by stealing pgn from him. no thoughts ignoring all problems just two girls having fun trying to kill dad 💘

#and they were right. pissing off your dad should always be your number one priority

muslims will act violently homophobic in a country that values gay rights and then act shocked when it reflects badly on their community

#non muslims pls don’t interract but i’m sooo mad i just need to rant #also prefacing this by saying obvs muslims are not to blame for racism and islamophobia in europe these things would still exist without #all the controversy but omggg #so this group of lgbt muslims planned an iftar for other queer muslims and they had to cancel it bc of the threats they received #and now ofc all the politicians are going on abt how they cannot accept intolerance and this behaviour is unacceptable in a society that #preaches equal rights for queer people #and like… was that not to be expected??? the very muslims who do shit like this will be the first to scream islamophobia but are you making #ANY effort #this meeting was not for you it does not affect you you don’t even have to think abt it but what makes you think sending threats of #physical violence during the holy month of RAMADAN is smth you should be doing #there is nothing surprising abt the far right (who don’t even support queer rights themselves) to jump on this opportunity to make sure #everyone knows that look!! those muslims refuse to adopt our good belgian values #and yk they’d find smth anyway but let’s avoid adding fuel to their fire by giving them real actual reasons to be concerned #and on the one hand it does feel like victim blaming bc marginalised groups shouldn’t be held responsible for the hatred targeted at them #and it’s not muslims’ fault but i’m just so tired like they really can’t help themselves #something so deeply wrong with muslims who make hating queer people their number one priority like… i don’t think you understand what your #beloved faith stands for #it’s just such a shame to have to start ramadan with this kind of discourse everywhere #exactly 0% of this is surprising i could’ve predicted this would happen exactly but it’s just so tiring on all accounts #you want to live your religion in piece without being targeted for it? what makes you think attacking other ppl wanting the very same thing #is a logical response? use your brain and spend some time doing dhikr instead of spreading hate on the internet what is wrong with you

one of the reasons I hate my manager is because he insists on doing everything in the fucking stupidest, messiest, least efficient way possible. one of the things he insisted on is that we wrap the holds at the circulation desk. I work at a very busy branch that gets a lot of holds and wrapping the holds is kind of a messy process involving many stacks of books and carts and sheets of paper. in short it looks bad for us to be doing it at the fucking circ desk and also it's bad customer service bc people don't want to interrupt us when we're busy. and then i brought up that it was easier and often times faster to just have one person dedicated to wrapping them in back and then shelving them. instead of whoever is on desk juggling helping patrons and wrapping holds. he said it was an Absolute Priority that we get the holds out as fast as we can. again despite this not being a faster method.

ANYWAY. I do the desk schedule so I always put him on desk at 1 like. okay you wanna do this stupid bass akwards shit? YOURE the one who gets to do it then <3 and I walk outside. and what do I see? my shithead manager ignoring a cart full of holds while he weeds dvds. and don't even get me started on the desperately slow and inefficient way he weeds. i could have weeded dvds in an hour and he's been working on it for weeks. anyway.

#OH ITS A PRIORITY? A NUMBER ONE PRIORITY? IS THAT IT?? BUT LESS IMPORTANT THAN YOU WEEDING DVDS?????#so idk how standardized software is across library systems but at mine we have a software #where we can pick a collection and set parameters and itll run us a list of what needs to be weeded.#ex: im pulling everything that has circed fewer than say 5 times in the last year #you print out the list. you pull the materials. you withdraw them. youre done.#my manager. goes to the stacks. takes an entire shelf of dvds off the shelf. walks over to the computer.#and looks up the bib record for each one. so he can look at the ytd circ.#it takes him an hour to do one shelf. he puts 90% of them back.#it makes me want to scream every time i see him do it.#carly.txt
