I know it’s haha funny to laugh at dutch and call it discount english or what-have-you, but I stopped finding it funny a long, long time ago. There’s so much active distaste for a language that has every right to exist and be found beautiful, but it’s hated by people who don’t speak it and native speakers who do. Why would you call any language lesser than? Any language better than another? There’s so much beauty to be found in each language, so many different ways of life and seeing the world, so many different words and sayings and ways to love that you can’t find in another. Dutch is no different, and it deserves to be appreciated, not driven into the ground and disregarded as a worn piece of clothing that’s served its purpose
im choosing to be ✨delusional✨ and believe that when jamie is having his makeup or whatever touched up during the shoot, he’s making light convo with the person. like he knows them and he’s asking them how they’re doing. idk but the idea of jamie tartt being on good terms with people around him for no reason other than to be nice is something that can be so personal-
I like to think that TWSA was written for kdj while SSSSS-grade Infinite Regressor was written for yjh
Mainly just because it seems. Kinder. Idk how to put it. One part of common webnovels is that the protagonist WILL always be okay and they will succeed (unlike twsa which was 3149 chapters of hell) and I just like to think that this novel was just a little gentler and just a little more optimistic
That one Percico fic by ImHalfSickOfShadows where Nico falls into the fountain of Hebe and when Percy holds him, Nico cries quietly and bitterly and Percy is like “that much pain has no business being on a baby’s face” and—
of all the times to be separated from the family she’s found. Imogen’s arms are turning red, she’s being called back to Prodathos—
It looks like proof to me. You fucking saved us. You saved all of us. And we’re gonna save her, too. That’s proof that you can fucking do it. That’s some hero shit, man.
it feels so good, she’s had a taste of the satisfaction of her fate—
Well Imogen, I wish my family didn’t have to die for her brighter tomorrow.
It was all leading to this, she fits here, she doesn’t need to feel alone anymore—
I don’t mind being your better half!
It feels so right, this is where she’s supposed to be—
You’re my tether, Laudna.
Maybe that’s what all of the Exultant look like, maybe that’s who she’s supposed to become, she wants to be there, she needs to be there, that’s who she is, that’s where she belongs, she—
"I love you with my whole soul, and I will always love you," he confided to me. "You are my life. I have hated you for that and love you now so much that you've been my instructor in loving. And believe me when I say you will survive this, and that you must for all of us. You will survive this because you always have and you always will."
I couldn't answer. I knew I loved him more than words could say, but I couldn't respond.

Something i absolutely love about robin, how she is in the crew, is that
Like
She's their little princess, she's their mother/big sister, she doesn't have to do anything, they can count on her, everyone can be hard working and panicking and needing help and she'll be in the cabin reading or drinking a tea they made for her, they'll run to protect her at all cost, they'll cry asking for her help without hesitation
They can count on her and will do so, and she's not forced to do anything in any way, she is just out there enjoying life with them while having all the freedom and light hearted life and time she may never had, she doesn't have to worry about anything and she know that in the case it's unavoidable they can count on each other with full trust on everything (except that one franky technique back on thriller bark)
