A gryphon made of stars

"The last thing you see as your body begins to immolate and burn is a gryphon made of stars… bearing on its back a young boy holding a journal."

“Laerryn, another First Knight of Avilir in this very chamber once told you ‘I’m here for you no matter what you need.’”

Mylis: Mylis will go up to Cae. “I am gonna apologize in advance. They’re gonna probably take me, so… don’t worry about me.” And I’m just gonna keep following [the rest of the party].

Cae: Before you have a chance to, I grab and say, “you’re not allowed to die for me, either. Or anyone.”

Mylis: “Just don’t do it again.” A tear comes down her face.

Ori: *meme voice* Emotional damage!

A JL Batman identity reveal fic where Bruce Wayne is openly dating Superman

Some of the Justice League walk into a lesser used room to find Batman and Superman making out

The members that walked in are like "Superman TF are you doing you got a boyfriend?!?"

And before they can say anything about Batman being a homewrecker, Batman turns his attention from the Leaguers back to Superman, now acting like a scandalized Brucie Wayne(like turning his head and putting the back of his hand to his head), being like "Gasp! Superman how could you! You told me you cut that Wayne Himbo off! Did you dare to try to have us both at the same time?!?" Clark, for his part, is caught between a look of embarrassed horror and laughing really, really hard.

Diana is probably there, in the know, laughing her ass off as she should, the absolute QUEEN.

Eventually Bruce starts laughing almost has hard as Diana, the rest of the Leaguers there are Traumatized™ for life.

Bruce then calls a full League meet, explaining vaguely how the circumstances of getting walked in on happened, some of the people who weren't there start to say something about how Batman could come between Superman and Bruce

He quickly shuts them up by mentioning that he is, in fact, Bruce Wayne

Then we get chaos as it fades to black

Whatever you do do not think about Cellbit on those last moments in Purgatory.

Do not think about how he was the only parent to see Richarlyson, the only one there because all the others are in no condition to help. Don't think about how he promised his son he would save him, how he took that responsibility to himself because he was the only one there, because for most of his life Cellbit only caused destruction and pain but for once he wanted to bring good news, he wanted to be able to save their son.

Don't think about Cellbit's despair as the earthquake began. Don't think about how even when everyone was screaming for him to go, to run, he couldn't. Don't think about how Cellbit would die a hundred times before he ever gave up on his son, before he left Richarlyson behind like he has been left so many times.

Don't think about how for a moment he felt hope when Etoiles screamed that he had Richarlyson, how that hope was quickly snatched away when his son was ripped away just like all the other children.

Don't think about how Cellbit ran with absolutely no intention of ever getting on that boat.

How he ran because he has learned during Purgatory that there are people who care about him, who love him, and who would waste precious time trying to convince him to go, would refuse to even get into the boat without him and that was unacceptable. Don't think about how Cellbit couldn't save his son but he would try his hardest to save the rest of his family.

Don't think about Cellbit urging Foolish to run, about making plans with Mouse to make sure they wouldn't realize his true intentions, don't think about Cellbit checking if he could see who already made it into the boat, checking the messages on his communicator waiting for the confirmation he could stop.

Don't think about Cellbit stopping close enough to see the boat, with no intention of ever getting closer.

Don't think about Cellbit taking the last moments before the explosion to say goodbye to his husband. To say he loves him one last time. Don't think about how Cellbit waited until seconds are left because he could never condemn Roier to his self destructive path, because he would bleed and die and suffer a hundred times over but he would never wish for that for Roier, how he loves him too deeply, how he knows his husband and knows that he would choose the suffer and the unknown at his side and Cellbit could not allow that.

Don't think about Cellbit looking at the boat and praying Bagi made it. How he thought about the letters that that little boy wrote, about the love which he put into his memories, about how she never gave up on him, how she clung to hope and love even when he tried his hardest to push her away. Don't think about Cellbit realizing in those last moments that he loves his sister, wishing they had more time.

Cellbit, watching the boat start to move and feeling relief for a brief moment.

Cellbit praying for the first time in his life that all of his family made it. Begging to a deity he does not believe in that they are all safe, that Roier will have the rest of their team to help him, that they will have each other's back like they have in the last weeks.

Don't think about how Cellbit embraced the explosion when it began.

Don't think about how Cellbit had absolutely no clue that most of the people he desperately wanted to be safe weren't. Don't think about how even the ones who made it to the boat would gladly jump out of it for him.

Don't think about how Cellbit realized in Purgatory that he is loved.

Don't think about how Cellbit realized in Purgatory he is not worthy of that love.

Ro you okay? The red lightning thing seems to have your attention.

Thinking about the implication that Gillion is the one who has constructed his trial makes things all the more fucked up.

When the donjon uses the word "sin", it is pulling from Gillion's own interpretation of what a sin is: and what Gillion sees as a sin is his inability to bear pain. In the sun temple he confesses that he doesn't want to be the chosen one, that he feels he can't bear the responsibilities and that makes him sinful. In the end of the trial, he confesses he hates the elders, he hated the failure, he hated waking up in the morning and that makes him sinful. Gillion feels sinful for wanting to be normal, for being abused, for feeling depressed and even suicidal. When the donjon interrogates Gillion for his sins, Gillion is judging himself harshly from a very flawed view of what sin is.

His "wrath", his "pride", his "impulsiveness". Although Gillion has these flaws, the ways in which he identifies them in his past is such a worrying sentiment. He puts blame on himself that he killed humans in the first case, even if he couldn't have known better. He puts blame on himself that he was self absorbed in the second case, even if he couldn't have known better. He puts blame on himself that he attacked a navy officer in the third case, even if he couldn't have known better. When Gillion reflects on his past and projects his own failure onto it is so deeply troubling - he's weaponising his own hindsight against himself. His sin is hating the elders and it's a sin because what happened must have been a fault on his part. Gillion didn't say that it was the elders fault he failed, just that he hated the elders for waking him up TO fail. THEY didn't fail him, they WATCHED him fail. There's a difference between these two sentiments.

And what we also need to bring up is that even if Gillion tried his best in each case, it still wasn't good enough. There's a reason why Charlie had to make wisdom saves just to see if Gillion felt what he did was right. No matter how far he comes he still doubts himself.

I think that there's good reason why the trial didn't have a resolution. Gillion's trial still did little to trump his fear of his abusers, it still did little to make him feel confident. He still has to physically prepare himself in case he failed because the pain of failure still overwhelms him. And you know even if Gillion says that he doesn't need their validation, Gillion still constructed his own trial and bore it in the hopes he wouldn't be guilty. How can Gillion resolve his own trial when he's still bearing so much emotional baggage? Even if he had recieved his verdict, would it really have resolved anything? Chances are it only would have made Gillion worse in one way or another.

The way Gillion held himself was amazing in some regards, but the fact is that Gillion constructed his own trial because he judges himself as a screwup. He WAS banished, he WAS guilty. This trial was a judgement of his current state rather than him at ALL forgiving himself for what he did. This trial is not enough to forgive him of his past, only to see if he "will no longer be destined to ruin that of which you touch". No longer be destined - which doesn't mean he WON'T, just that he's no longer "destined". And oh boy the fact that for all this time Gillion has felt that he was destined to fail? That he's been waiting EVERY day for him to ruin everything around him? Everything he touches? To ruin Jay or Chip or to fuck something up the next time he tries to help like the chosen one he's meant to be?

Dear deities above, why did the donjon have to be a reflection of Gillion's inner conflict. That's so messed up. It's not healthy for Gillion to continue to deal with all this alone; he's already dealt with everything alone for so long. How I wish for someone, ANYONE to tell him that it's not his fault...

"Flip a coin."

Im listening to prime defenders finally and so far 2/3 of grizzly’s pcs ive seen in different campaigns / one shots have given me brand new identity crises so how worried should i be about dakota doing the same?

GREG HUFFLEY!??! GREG HUFFLEY??!! IN GENSHIN!?!?!

Cae: I go over to Azu and am like, “can I… sit here?”

Azu: “Sure.”

Cae: Does Kani come over and put head on my lap or anything?

Azu: Kani’s just gonna flop over on you.

Cae: I’m going to be, just, awkwardly fidgeting, scritching Kani’s ears, not reealllyy making eye contact with you, but I, uh…

Azu: Azu will just be looking out at the field.

Cae: “I’m sorry you got left behind. I know… how much that sucks… and I’m sorry…” *long sigh* “the last time we really talked, I was… kiind of an asshole… and I… don’t want to die leaving things that way. So… I’m sorry.”

Azu: “Eh, we can all be assholes sometimes. And what just happened wasn’t anybody’s fault except the forest.”

Cae: “Still… sometimes things happen… that reeaallllyyy suck… and it’s nobody’s fault…”

Azu: “Exactly”

Cae: *more absent/distantly* “It was nobody’s fault…” and I just kind of… turn my attention back to petting Kani.

Azu: He won’t move but he’ll kinda curl his tail around you, as kind of a comfort thing. Kani is upside down, rolled onto his back.

Cae: I slap toe beans with Kani. Slowly start to smile.

How do you need to be loved?

Carefully, like a gentle rain on dry Earth.

You've been left beaten down and by someone you really trusted and loved, so now love doesn't come easy for you. You want it to. You want to love and be loved, but you're not sure you remember how. So you need someone else to take the lead. They have to be gentle and sweet and patient. They have to watch out for you, and make sure youre doing okay, because most days you feel a little fragile, if not totally shattered. But someone will come along who will put those pieces back together again.
