I think he was scared he was feeling weak like the last grasp on the only thing he held control over was slipping

so he pushed the dinner off the table he yelled at her over the stupidest shit like how many sentences are in a paragraph who really overcooked the spaghetti

but thermodynamics also applies to emotions and they don’t leave the room even when you do

in that way the halls creak with stepping feet every doorknob has a tremble voices echo through the halls though you were too young to understand them

every memory has an anchor or a bouquet of flowers the thermodynamics of emotions never damper but even if you promised to never pick them up again they linger in the corners of your mind with a measurable temperature

emotions are the conservation of energy and it doesn’t leave the room even when you do

it clings to all the surfaces we touched like our dinner on the floor though it knows not who really overcooked it

Cottage house

And maybe I can help you

Build your cottage house

that you always dreamt about

Living alone might sound ideal

But maybe it won’t be that bad

with me in it too

And like in your dreams

when a big man comes to kill you

Maybe I can be the one to save you

or maybe we can

Fight together

Or maybe die together?

#cottage house #cottage #dreams #poetry #confession #gone ahead

tails is still a kid so i like to imagine his developing predator instincts lead him to hunt sonic for sport sometimes, like what kittens do with their mothers. like sonic will go to the workshop to see what tails is up to and as soon as he walks in the door he's been tackled to the floor. or when they were first together on westside island sonic had to teach himself to override his "curl up and stab whatever is attacking you" instincts because the kid following him around had a tendency to jump him at random

#classic sonic breaking into a sweat when he realizes that tails is gone and the bushes ahead of him are rustling weirdly #sonic the hedgehog #miles tails prower #redposts

someone else could write it better than me but i love how the fucked up nasty shit you can make harry do/say/be in disco elysium isn't just like, random stuff caused simply by the player having free will and control over him but they're parts of who he is and who he has been

you're not a tabula rasa. you're a sudden shock of blank pages in a big, aged, damaged book and sometimes the paper you're trying to write a better man on is torn and you see something through the gaps nobody needed to see ever again. and it's just there now again, back to the surface

#sorry for some reason i feel like i write about DE better in tags than the post. idk why. TAG ESSAY AHEAD.#the gap between tags is a nigh irreplacable form of punctuation #to me #anyway #the one that really got me thinking was how failing an authority check can make you call kim a racial epithet #even if you've played a vocally anti-racist harry up to that point #that line feels like the underbelly of a calving iceberg you were never meant to see #floating to the surface as the whole thing turns and rights itself #the joyous moment is over. the celebrations end #you stop dancing and you step outside with kim #you can profusely apologise #but that thing #that piece of harry before he forgot everything #it doesn't come out of nowhere #nobody just randomly blurts out something like that #it crests the surface #and then it's just... gone again #under the waves #disco elysium #dibi

Hope that helps!

listen here my dear sweet anon

first of all, there is no forewarning needed here that these are mostly from early LO, early LO is what I'm dying to recapture so you already struck gold and you can stop digging (or don't, because holy shit finding this in my inbox was like christmas for puff round 2)

second, i hope you're happy choosing this timeline where you're my new bestie because goddamn this is COMPREHENSIVE

and third (and most importantly) how in the flying FUCK did you know about some of these

like it's clear at this point rachel uses a lot of the kyle webster brushes, i kinda figured that out ages ago and it was just a matter of figuring out which ones she uses which you've done me the solid of putting together for me

but the ghibli background set?? the brushes that are exclusive to the newest episodes ??

either you've just become the champion of being the most hyperfixated on old LO orrrrr you know something we don't and there's a reason you're using the anon tag-

#i will mention btw there are some i couldn't get thru my usual download sources #the winter 2019 fall 2021 and spring 2022 set #thankfully they only contain one brush each all of which are from the newer episodes as labelled #but i'd still like to nab 'em so if anyone has any leads or can share these brushes with me pls lmk in my asks <3 #everyone thank our almighty anon for passing on these resources #i've gone ahead and updated the brush pack post which now includes almost all of these as a background brush set #lore olympus critical #lo critical #anti lore olympus #lore olympus redraw

there is a very specific image in my head of early-mid 20’s iwaizumi hajime

#iwaizumi x reader #and he’s the guy taking on an internship in his senior year with minimum load for his classes #bc he’s planned it all out since starting college #you see him in parties because he has the time & he works so hard it’s only right he plays hard too #every time you lock eyes he gives you a small smile #there’s an air about him that isn’t cocky but isn’t too shy; a comfort that settles into his skin like he’s sure of who he is #—of what he wants & it definitely isn’t hauling up his drunk friends and a few acquaintances up his car #but some of them are your friends and you’re helping him so maybe it isn’t so bad #he drops you off with your roommate and you rarely see him after #until you spot him at some bar (again) and he’s wearing a tight fitting polo (it’s his uniform you later notice)#it’s a year or two after your graduation and when you lock eyes across the room there’s something so familiar yet wholly different #he’s confident now & maybe a little flirty too when he tells you he’s working as an assistant to shadow one of his mentors #you catch up for the rest of the night and your friends have long since gone ahead #he still knows what he wants and it’s to bring you home—not that way (not yet); you’re a little suspicious because #you know there’s /something/ but he drives you home like a gentleman. without really trying anything (and maybe part of you wishes he did)#it’s iwaizumi though and he knows what he wants—to ask you out properly (one he’s been thinking about since chance encounters in uni)#and he’s hoping that when he asks you can tell just how much he likes you #hajime #i want him so bad im crying #there is a whole workd of backstory to this but i got lazy typing it #shotorus.bubble

honestly happily surprised; I ran for 20mins straight ! I think that’s the longest continous stretch I’ve ran as an adult ever !! Like usually my warm up is 10mins straight so that was a double today!

#I think I could’ve gone longer but it’s leg day so didn’t wanna push it too far bc then the rest of the workout would suck #it was on the treadmill tho yeah so obv a lot easier than running outside #but still was nice #maybe being a little scared for ur safety truly is the best preworkout lmao #(I walked to the gym at around 4am & some (drunk) dude ahead of me kept stopping & turning to look at me and wait but I switched #to the other side of the street and I don’t think he noticed bc on the next time he turned he kept looking around like confused (dude was #out of it) so it was all good just a little bit like do I turn around or keep going situation)#(bc he might’ve just been on other things & paranoid tbh)#anyways not a big deal the point was that I got some adrenaline and boii did that make the running so easy #maybe I should always listen to some idk horror things before/while running #maybe that ’’zombies run’’ app was onto something #march 2024 #2024

still not over that post by a british user who was like. wdym there are predators in north america, we hunted ours to extinction.

there's something deeply sick about a culture that grinds the land it lives on down to a nub, and is shocked and horrified by the evidence of other lands retaining at least some parts of the ecosystems that are thousands of years older than us.

#like culturally there is something broken there that was exported globally #genuinely i am feeling grief over this which i think is in part due to like. you don't even know what you're missing out on!#ive gone hiking in the winter and come across coyotes.#ive gone backpacking and found grouse and snakes and heard about bears #up ahead on the trail #the world is so full of life #and it aches to come across these lifeless wastelands #like. these are your kin!!!#about me

I wonder as the years pass if love loses some of its shining brightness only to trade it for an unbreakable foundation and a profound depthness.

you can't carry it with you if you want to survive (Nimona 2023) - Chapter 2 (Preview #2) (New)

(Note: this is not the finalized draft; anything featured is subject to edits or deletion)

Preview #1 (Updated 01/21/24)

Crouched beneath the desk, scanning the floor for one last stray budget document, a sudden, sharp chime rang from his pocket, startling him so badly he jumped and banged his head into the underside of the drawer. Eyes watering, he settled back onto his haunches, bringing his phone to his ear with one hand and rubbing the back of his throbbing head with the other. “This is Ambrosius,” he said, vaguely noting the late hour and the unfamiliar number, but primarily relieved that his words hadn't emerged as a slurred, incoherent mess. “Sir Goldenloin?” At the unfamiliar woman’s voice, Ambrosius narrowed his eyes, confused. “Yes?”

At his reply, the woman's sharp sigh of relief crackled the receiver, her voice straining with tears. “Thank Gloreth. I am so, so sorry, sir, I know this isn’t exactly protocol and it’s late and I'm not technically supposed to have your cell but I didn’t know what else to do and I–”

“Hey, whoa–” Ambrosius’ eyebrows shot up in alarm as he hoisted himself to unsteady feet. “Who is this? Are you hurt?”

“No! No, sir, I’m just–” The woman’s voice hitched with a wet sniffle. “I’m sorry. This is Officer Laurel, sir, reporting from the Starcrest hotel over on Willowbrook. The patrolmen's guild has received reports of a disturbance, sir.”

His stomach lurched. It could be a coincidence—the Cynarian workers weren't scheduled to arrive at the Starcrest until next week, why would there be any trouble now? And yet, apprehension flooded him as fleeting images of the angry, fearful faces he'd seen in the crowd earlier that afternoon raced through his mind.

“What kind of a disturbance?”

“Around 2100 hours, a group of five young men were witnessed breaking and entering the lobby of the hotel and have begun vandalizing the property. One witness believes she saw one carrying a bat. Sir, they—” Her voice wavered. “We suspect they’re a group of knight-cadets, sir.”

Drawing in a sharp breath, Ambrosius pinched the bridge of his nose, struggling to keep his frustration from bleeding into his tone. “Where are you exactly? Are you in the lobby?”

Silence, followed by a sheepish sigh. “I’m in my squad car, sir. I’m– I gave them a stern warning, but I’m not a knight, sir, I'm just a meter maid! I’m not even authorized to carry a baton!” Her voice dropped to a whisper. “I’m pretty sure they’re inebriated, sir.”

Understanding surged through him with a jolt. “You’re alone? Where’s your backup?”

“I, um, am the backup, sir. Captain says we’re stretched real thin and–” She let out another shaky sigh. “He said the kingdom comes before a bunch of foreigners, sir.”

Ambrosius clenched his jaw as he grappled with his escalating anger towards the captain, the cadets, but most of all, himself. Of course. The patrolmen’s guild had been spread thin for months. He’d known that. He just hadn't thought to do anything about it until it had already been far too late to take any meaningful action.

He’d need to take care of this before it grew into something he couldn't handle. He could argue with the patrolmen’s captain and demand they send proper authorities to take care of this, but that could just make things worse. On top of wasting time, he might just receive a gaggle of meter maids and other ill-suited ilk, and Gloreth only knew how things would spiral from there.

The involvement of the knight-cadets ensured that news of this incident would be plastered everywhere by tomorrow morning. It could hand Ambrosius’ detractors even more fuel in their campaign against him, and that wasn’t even mentioning what Ambrosius would do if the Starcrest's belligerent executive officer, after receiving word of this, decided to rescind their agreement. He would have nowhere left in the whole damned kingdom willing to give the Cynarian workers a place to sleep.

It would unravel everything he's been building towards. Six months of late nights and skipping meals and suffering the unfathomable growing gulf between him and Bal, and he’d be right back to where he started.

No, this required a delicate touch; better to take the initiative and get as far ahead of the situation as he could than risk leaving it to someone less capable. It would grant him much more control over the fallout, and, besides, Ambrosius had never been very good at sitting back and watching someone else do his job for him.

Never.

“Let me take the lead, Director,” Todd had said, eyes glittering with malice. “I’ll make it hurt. I’ll make it–”

“I’ll do it.”

The words had spilled out before Ambrosius had a chance to consider them. Not that it would have made a difference. He knew, with a fierce, burning certainty, that there didn’t exist a world where he didn’t, at that moment, assume command. The agony of taking the lead himself paled in comparison to standing aside and allowing Todd, cruel, bloodthirsty Todd, take charge of Ballister's manhunt in his stead—even if the difference amounted to little more than having to choose between carving his heart out or just driving the knife clean through his chest.

No. Ambrosius had never been very good at sitting back and watching someone do his job for him. Not when he couldn't live with the consequences.

He could still hear the patrolwoman’s sniffles over the receiver. “Officer?”

She hiccupped. “Yessir.”

“Officer, I need you to call your captain and let him know what’s happening. Confirm there’s no other patrolmen or knights else available to assist.” He doubted it would manifest anything useful, but he still had to do things properly. “Keep me informed of any changes at the scene, alright?”

“Yes, sir.”

“Stay calm,” he said, reaching over to grab his messenger bag. “I’m on my way.”

A shuddering gasp broke the receiver’s pitch. “Thank you, sir. Really, sir, I don’t know what I would have– I’m sorry, I know this isn’t exactly standard procedure–”

“None of this is your fault.” If Ambrosius had a better handle as to the goings-on of his own damn kingdom, perhaps none of this would have come to pass in the first place. This was his mess, it was only fair he cleaned it up. “Stay where you are. I should be there in about 20 minutes. Maybe 30.”

“Thank you so much, sir. I’ll keep you updated just like you said. Those boys won’t be able to sneeze without me letting you know, sir.”

Ambrosius chuckled. “Let’s not get carried away, Officer.”

“Yessir! I won’t let you down. Officer Laurel, out.”

He hung up the phone and brought it back to his ear just as quickly to phone a cab. With his car on the way, he grabbed the liquor bottle by its neck and shoved it into the back of the dark, dusty cabinet.

Glancing down at his phone again, he pulled up Ballister’s contact ID, thumbing the side of the screen. Taking a deep breath, he started typing.

Hey Bal

Something came up. Shouldn’t take more than an hour

I’m sor–

But he deleted that part. After the things said that night, Ballister deserved to hear any apology from his own lips, not from behind a screen.

Instead, he said,

I love you

The response didn’t take long.

Okay. Just keep me posted

I love you too

With a weary sigh, he pocketed his phone and slung his messenger bag over his shoulder. The cab wouldn’t arrive for another five minutes—just enough time to brew a hot, sobering cup of black coffee.

#nimona #goldenheart #fanfiction #fic #and we're back!#the PLACES this fic has taken me #let it be known i am not exaggerating when i say i have 30k words of scrapped content for this thing #and yes ive also gone ahead and tweaked the first preview if anyone wants to give it another look #nothing too major but it flows much better now
