But Please Mention It Anyway?

When someone you love offers a bid for connection, you say yes every time. When someone sends you an article, a video, a funny post, it’s a bid for connection. They are trying to connect with you. When someone shares details about their day, their life, their thoughts, or their feelings with you, that is a bid for connection. They want to connect with you on a deeper level. They are trying to pull you into their world. If you love them, you say yes every time. Yes, even if the article they send is not particularly interesting to you. Yes, even if it means listening to them ramble about a game you don’t care about and think is stupid. Yes yes yes. And let’s hope they always say yes to your bids, too.

regulus would be the most insufferable person to do arts and crafts with. like its valentines day and the group gathers to make cards and have some fun, meanwhile regulus' running that shit like the navy asking you how hard can it be to draw a fucking heart?? have you ever even used scissors in your life?? just fold it in half and cut it!! ugh this is too much glitter!! what are you? savages?? guys what is this?? am i the only one who had four hours of calligraphy lessons everyday for six years? (he was). at some point he just says pass me the damn hot glue gun and makes all of their cards

safe to say they never did arts and crafts together again

To all the fic writers out there that are not currently writing. Either it's because of RL, health, writer's block or something has happened that have disheartened you. Thank you for what you've written, and don't ever feel pressured or stressed - fanfic should be something good for all of us; both reader and writer. You're more important than what you do, but thank you for what you've done!

Eye of a Rosier

"This cannot be messed around with, Pandora, it is not a toy chéri” her mother says in her smooth as silk voice, gently stroking circles into her cheek with her thumb, the long nail at the end of it poking her in the ear every now and then. Pandora's legs are tucked into her chest, covered by her nightgown. Her hair keeps falling in front of her eyes but it isn’t like she can see what is really here right now. Pandora is rocking backwards and forwards, trying not to crumble.

Don’t Panic is a command easier said than done, Pandora can feel the calm touch of her mother, the soothing voice to go along with it. But no matter how much she talks she cannot stop seeing the way in which her mother will die.

OR ; There is a curse running through the Rosier family, having been dormant for decades Pandora finds herself afflicted with the ability to see the death of whoever touches her.
