Tw: Self Harm Scars

tw: self harm scars

idk, something that's been rattling around in my brain since an anon asked about it. i never could find a full scene to fit it into but oh well.

///

Elphaba brushes a thumb over the scars, the catch of her nails against the rough, raised skin sending shivers down Galinda's spine. She holds her breath on instinct, anxiety tangling in her chest in a way that makes it hard to fill her lungs with air.

"You know," Elphaba starts, eyes still tracing the lines on Galinda's fair skin. "In some ancient Ozian cultures, scars were seen as a badge of honor. A signal to everyone else that the bearer was strong enough to survive something that could've killed them."

Elphaba glances up, her emerald eyes shining as the corners of her lips tilt into the gentlest of smiles. She keeps her gaze locked on Galinda's as she lowers her head to press her lips to the marks.

"I don't think you're disgusting, Galinda," Elphaba whispers, crawling back up the blonde's body to press another kiss to her lips. "I think you're a survivor."

Reblogging so I don't lose it

Hindus, please do not take Mahabharata and Ramayana lessons from serials. Read the actual scriptures.

Books I’ll recommend for Mahabharata and Ramayana that were written after a lot of research and reading are -

You can read these if you don’t have the time to read the scriptures.

Everytime I watch Avengers or any MCU movie where Tony and Steve interact I’m like, Tony. Tony. He’s 26. Why are you picking fights with someone almost two decades younger than you. Tony you know he’s incapable of walking away from a challenge, oh my god

In Eternally Yours, there is a rule in the shared Upland-Thropp house. Elphaba knows it, Peaches and Liir know it. The only person who doesn’t know is Galinda. That rule is very simple:

If Galinda (Miss Upland) is asleep, excluding fire or bodily injury, DO NOT WAKE HER UP!

It doesn’t matter what time it is, what day it is, or any other circumstance. If Galinda is asleep, she is to be left alone until she wakes up.

That being said, Galinda falling asleep on Elphaba is like having a bomb strapped to her chest. On the rare occasion it happens, she can’t move, she can’t talk. She can’t even breathe too deep or Galinda might wake up. And if that happens, it’s unclear when or if she’ll get back to sleep in the next twelve hours. Elphaba can only pray during these moments that the kids stay occupied and that no one rings the damn doorbell.

"If you are so committed to being perfectly lawful that you can not see the value of breaking a law to defend yourself or others, then you are not good. You are obedient."
