“Mankind's true place is to dwell in primordial chaos from where it originally sprung from."”

*shakes bag of kibble* COME GET Y'ALL'S FOOD Cahara x gn!reader warnings: injury mention other than that it's just some bittersweet fluff 💜

“S-sorry, I’m just…” you said softly, voice shaking as you let the sentence hang unfinished in the air.

Scared, Cahara knew. He understood why – these dungeons would be terrifying enough empty – too many sleepless nights (days? It was hard to tell now) spent running from hulking guards and things that looked human but refused to die even after their heads were cut off. It would wear anyone out.

You’d held out this entire time, moving ever forward using nothing but pure willpower to continue. It reminded him of the flowers he’d seen back home, growing through stone paths and buildings. A slow but unstoppable force from each flower, each leaf, adding to the pressure that would eventually crack those stones in half. You were strong – powerful – in your own quiet way, Cahara knew that. Admired it. Unfortunately….even as tough as you were, you weren’t built to endure this place. No one was.

“I know,” he said with a sad smile, extending his arm to you, “C’mere.”

Cahara barely had time to blink before you’d launched yourself into his lap, trembling arms wrapped around him as tight as they could go. He froze for a moment; startled by how quickly you’d moved (he sometimes forgot you could be so fast) his arms finally coming up to pull you in closer.

He hummed softly to you a while, a song from when he was young, lightly rocking the both of you as you tried to relax in what he hoped was a safe room. The two of you had gotten separated from Ragnvaldr and Enki one, no, two a few days ago and had been running since. You were visibly exhausted and Cahara worried you wouldn’t be able to run much longer.

With any luck, one of them would spot one of the markings Cahara had left around the dungeons, coded messages meant to guide them to one hiding place or another. Hopefully they’d find the right one. He huffed a quiet laugh into your hair as he pictured Enki angrily decoding each message they find, spurring Ragnvaldr onward so he could scold the two of you for getting so lost. That was one angry rant he’d be happy to listen to, he decided, as long as it meant you were all back together.

Cahara hugged you a little tighter, relieved that you seemed to be getting some rest. He tried - and failed - to stop his wince as he adjusted the bandages covering the mangled, bloody stump of his right wrist, one simple phrase repeating in his head.

“I’m scared too”

i know this is a jervis account but i just watched the long halloween movie and

he is my babygirl

and he's such a passenger princess

the obvious double standard with which we as a society treat amab nonbinary people and trans women who don't fit the level of feminity that they're expected to is actually disgusting.

tshirt that says i enjoy overdramatic and slightly silly science fiction but sincerity is a must at all times.

scully whispering “oh my god” in paper hearts when roche tells mulder that he just wants to see his face when he finds samantha’s body is one of the most affective small moments of the series. scully so rarely lets anything slip, so rarely speaks from a place of emotion rather than rationality, so rarely doesn’t have her words carefully chosen when she does.

but it’s just SO CRUEL!!! it’s just so cruel. and all mulder can do is sit there silently. it’s scully that jumps up and screams. i love the way she goes over to the door and just opens it and stands there, waits firmly for mulder to quietly follow her. she just gets him out of there without directing a single word towards him.

liberals AND republicans hate him! local senior citizen won't stop killing bigots with this *one weird trick (*mastery over magnetism)

he has the pure terror (and lust) in his eyes that can only be caused by fernando alonso

Tintype of a doctor and his patient, c. 1870s

Chuger dump #5 🧡 it might be out of my system now...

Thinking of the whole discourse in hotd around who should be queen/king..like going back to even the beginning like Visenya should have been the main monarch or Rhaena daughter of Aenys should have been his successor and then Aerea, Rhaenys, Rhaenyra and on and on for every case and like, on principle I agree. But like each time it bitterly reminds me that even if its progress it's still within the confines of a feudal monarchy that has authority over the masses through their violence and like...it's kind of a a "yeah we get to have female tyrants now, gender-inclusive feodality" cause at the end of it yeah you did replace a bad law by a better one with good opportunities for change but ultimately...it's still firstborn child of an hereditary dynasty taking control and being 99% of the time relatively detached from the intererests of the people they rule & very much incentivized to keep their own power, priviledges & dominion standing.

I think a lot of TB fans are mad that Alicent is "morally grey" in the way the wish Rhaenyra was, and that she's still doing "morally grey" better than her anyway, despite being a lot less morally grey and a lot more morally... fucked over and backed into a corner where she has to to do morally questionable things to keep her and her children alive... but I digress. I think they hate that Alicent is everything that they preach about when talking about Rhaenyra, while they shit on her with the very next breath.

this isn't even to say that Rhaenyra isn't morally grey, or that being morally grey makes her unlikable. she is, very truly, a morally grey character, and she can be very interesting when viewed as a flawed character with flawed decisions that aren't the best.

this also isn't to say Alicent's perfect, it's to say her hand being forced left and right, being made into a wounded animal that snaps at any hand that comes near it after years of being alone, hurting, neglected, and used, makes her a whole lot more complicated and morally less than grey.

on a reasonable level I can recognise how the change in men's fashion changed with the beginning of 1800 due to the ideals of the French revolution and later colonialism changing the general view of gender and of nobility. On a personal level, however, I hate it

A trans woman will make a post saying

- "Trans men do not face the same type of discrimination that trans women do, and to use transmisandry/transandrophobia to describe what discrimination they do face is just co-opting feminist language without actually thinking about what it means."

And transmascs everywhere will just fucking shit themselves to death in rage throwing around baeddel like a slur.
