I wish it was easier to get to the DLC levels in the wild hunt 😭 I just want to feel the feels I felt when I was going through Olgiard’s plot line and that spooky house and I want to be able to visit Regis in his crypt and go to Toussaint

I’m sick of life treating me like I go around kicking old ladies in their chins.

one of the things about being an educator is that you hear what parents want their kids to be able to do a lot. they want their kid to be an astronaut or a ballerina or a politician. they want them to get off that damn phone. be better about socializing. stop spending so much time indoors. learn to control their own temper. to just "fucking listen", which means to be obedient.
one of the things i learned in my pedagogy classes is that it's almost always easier to roleplay how you want someone to act. it's almost always easier to explain why a rule exists, rather than simply setting the rule and demanding adherence.
i want my kids to be kind. i want them to ask me what book they should read next, and i want to read that book with them so we can discuss it. i want my kid to be able to tell me hey that hurt my feelings without worrying i'll punish them. i want my kid to be proud of small things and come running up to me to tell me about them. i want them to say "nah, i get why this rule exists, but i get to hate it" and know that i don't need them to be grateful-for-the-roof-overhead while washing the dishes. i want them to teach me things. i want them to say - this isn't safe. i'm calling my mom and getting out of this. i want them to hear me apologize when i do fuck up; and i want them to want to come home.
the other day a parent was telling me she didn't understand why her kid "just got so angry." this woman had flown off the handle at me.
my dad - traditional catholic that he is - resents my sentiment of "gentle parenting". he says they'll grow up spoiled, horrible, pretentious. granola, he spits.
i am going to be kind to them. i am going to set the example, i think. and whatever they choose become in the meantime - i'm going to love them for it.

there are, of course, so many reasons to love gideon as a person. but her taking a moment to -- in the middle of a life or death situation -- mentally give 'a private prayer of thanksgiving for service rendered' to her rapier and knuckleknives as she's dropping them even though they've all this time kept her from her beloved longsword that she's finally about to pick up again... is one of the Most reasons for me personally

my delulu behavior has grown stronger ever since soobin got instagram,, enjoy some boyfie!soobin thoughts <3
boyfriend!soobin who holds you close as the two of you watch a movie, glasses slipping down his nose as he drifts off every once in a while,, his chin rests against your shoulder while his long fingers gently trace the soft skin of your stomach under your shirt...his own stomach suddenly growls, and you look back to find him with a sheepish smile before he's asking if you want to go to the convenience store down the road
boyfriend!soobin who refuses to let go of your hand as the two of you stroll along, the road dotted with a few people despite the late hour,, a couple of night owls, the two of you...he greets the cashier with a polite smile before he's pulling you towards the aisle that shelves various brands of cup ramen, grabbing one for each of you and a few other snacks for good measure,,, outright refuses to let you pay, quickly sliding his card across the counter before you can even protest — just let him take care of you, hm?
boyfriend!soobin who stands nearly hip to hip with you as the two of you slurp up the savory noodles, staring out the windows to people watch, making up stories about the people who pass by — who they are, where they're headed, what they're going to do,, it's a habit the two of you have picked up, tucking it between the typical conversations you share...it's a special form of intimacy, quiet and soft, just like him <3
boyfriend!soobin who drags you to a nearby park to mess around, his tall, lanky form standing in direct contrast with the child-size play structure that he bumbles about..you giggle when he tries to go down the short slide, getting stuck halfway,, he pouts and makes grabby hands at you, indicating that he needs help..rolling your eyes playfully, you do, and his bright smile that you adore returns ^^
boyfriend!soobin who pulls you into a sweet, slow kiss in the middle of the dimly lit park, hands wrapped around your waist as his plush, heart-shaped lips mold against your own..he smells like warm, soft cotton, of vanilla with an undertone of citrus, the skin of his jaw warm and soft beneath your fingertips as you try to eliminate the space between your bodies, both of you trying (and failing) not to smile into the sweet kiss
boyfriend!soobin who conveys his love with tender, gentle touches and whispered words of adoration,, a certain kind of fondness colors his gaze as he looks over at you — something that he saves only for you — smiling as you happily swing your bag of snacks with the hand not engulfed by his,, he loves you so much that he think he might burst, his chest tight as he realizes just how lucky he is to have found such a beautiful, loving partner that sees him and accepts him as he truly is, faults and all <3333333
