“The Biggest Risk We Take In Life Is Opening Our Hearts To Love.”

I just finished The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue by V.E. Schwab and all I could think about was "why does this feel like a darklina AU?" Anyway, I loved it. Beautiful. Would 100% read a novella about Luc and Addie playing cat and mouse for centuries.

i want to get a master's degree i want to take a cake decorating class i want to dance i want to sing i want to write and remember how to think i want to swim i want to be free

this year will be wonderful. you will meet new people who will feel like sunlight. someone out there will be lucky enough to meet you. you will see breathtaking views. you will learn so much knowledge from your studies and gain so much wisdom. there will be bad days but you will heal and start again in the morning. you will discover what makes you happy. you will fill up journals with scribbles and messy drawings. you will feel low and make mistakes but they will help you become a stronger person. you will pick up new things that give your life meaning and you will pour your heart into it. you will find songs that speak to you more than anything else in the world. you will grow. this year is waiting for you and it’s beautiful.

THIS. IS. BEAUTIFUL.

saw a photo of this sculpture and instantly thought of the manuscript party in ninth house by @lbardugo so… did this little 2hr drawing. feeling absolutely bananagrams. 

I love this man.

Omg not ben saying he's the one who also improvised the "are you sure" I??? Lmfaoooo the way he's carrying darklina on his back if it wasn't for him I'm sure we wouldn't have gotten most of the little things we love about them love that for us but also it just makes me even more convinced that they had and have no intention of further developing darklina and although he's going to be doing the most, actors can only do so much in the end it's the writers who have 99% of the creative control so it's a loosing game when the creator hates your characters' and ships guts

God did he also improvise that??? Ben will not rest until he adds verbal consent to all of his sex scenes even if he’s a villain. Bastard does it with Billy Russo too. Someone stop him (but don’t, I love it).

Ben actually has a pretty large amount of creative control over the Darkling it seems. He was able to get book lines in there, clearly they let him do a lot of improvisations. He got to expand on the character’s emotions a lot. So I’m pretty sure he’ll keep fighting for the Darkling’s humanity until the very end and I love him for it

Gotta love how Darlington went from being called the golden boy of Lethe to gentleman demon to Alex's demon boyfriend to Alex's demon consort

(oh and even better, the last two with no argument at all from Alex)

Good morning! I’m salty.

I think we, as a general community, need to start taking this little moment more seriously.

This, right here? This is asking for consent. It’s a legal necessity, yes, but it is also you, the reader, actively consenting to see adult content; and in doing so, saying that you are of an age to see it, and that you’re emotionally capable of handling it.

You find the content you find behind this warning disgusting, horrifying, upsetting, triggering? You consented. You said you could handle it, and you were able to back out at any time. You take responsibility for yourself when you click through this, and so long as the creator used warnings and tags correctly, you bear full responsibility for its impact on you.

“Children are going to lie about their age” is probably true, but that’s the problem of them and the people who are responsible for them, not the people that they lie to.

If you’re not prepared to see adult content, created by and for adults, don’t fucking click through this. And if you do, for all that’s holy, don’t blame anyone else for it.

Crying rn

It's midnight and I'm thinking about Alex sleeping peacefully in darlington's arms on his narrow bed. She no longer has to worry about her boyfriend coming home home high on drugs and a fight breaking out because she knows that by the time he returns from a ritual it's going to be late and she will be half asleep but that's okay because she will still feel him sliding into the bed with his hair still damp and he will turn off the lamp she left on before giving her a little kiss on the forehead. She will always turn around and find him reaching for her in his sleep and then he will kiss her shoulder before relaxing again. If she wakes up when he arrives at home, there will always be midnight kisses as he tells her about all the things he had to do and how insufferable all the people were. She can always count on him coming home early on date nights. She will always wake up to fresh flowers by her side on Sundays and Darlington will be on the phone with her mom so she can tell him to how to cook Alex's breakfast exactly how she likes it.

This is me in therapy lol

*covered in blood & in visible distress* i just need to write a list
