It Is DONE. I Am SAD But Fulfilled. If This Doesn’t Make Anyone But Me Cry I’m Going To Yeet Myself

Repost if at least three of ur GAYTPs is in here

P/s: There should be a looot more, but imma lazy

I was looking through my texts w/ some of my friends and found this gem.... who can relate?

i am not a destiel fan i am a destiel survivor

So I had a little think about this scene. And how Obi-Wan seems to always return people’s lightsaber to them however he loses his own often and it hit me…

Obi-Wan Kenobi doesn’t care about his own life, he genuinly doesn’t care and therefor losing his own weapon doesn’t matter if its just him alone against something. It only matters as long as he can protect someone else but the weapon that is his life?

It doesn’t matter. Obi-Wan doesn’t think his own life matters.

But to Cody, that life matters. So he always returns it to Obi-Wan.

Fictional characters might not be real, but our relationships with them are. 

Studies show it’s difficult for our brains to distinguish between our familiarity with characters on TV and our personal relationships with real people. The effect is so strong that just thinking about watching your favorite TV show can make you feel less lonely.

Rise Dragon Riders

I need to know that the Inheritance Cycle fandom is not dead yet. Please reblog so I can know that there are still people out there who remember and cherish these books. I CANNOT BE THE ONLY ONE LEFT

Hear me out, it’s not accurate but fuck off, Thanos snaps and Bucky is gone. But ya’ boy Winter isn’t. Winter who doesn’t give a fuuuuuck about the people he’s with; afterall, these are the people that Bucky connected with, not him. He does dig the new arm though.

Everyone, that survived anyway, is treating him with kiddy gloves. Until Tony-Fucking-Stark crash lands a spaceship into Wakanda territory and is the only one who reacts to the Soldier. (“What the fuck is this? Barnes minus the actual Bucky? Great.”). And Winter likes it. He likes the standoffish attitude, and obviously can’t take a hint, so he sticks to Tony like a shadow while they’re trying to figure out how to do this whole “un-snap” thing.

When Tony finally snaps and demands to know why the fuck Winter is following him 24/7 the answer is simple. “You treat me like me, not some broken toy missing a piece.”

that feeling when you’ve been reading all those gentle soft happy fanfics where everyone is gay and in love and it’s not a big deal and their friends all support them.

and your favourite superhero couples and detectives and kings and warlocks are just domestic and happy.

and then you emerge into the real world and it’s just not like that.

you walk into your job in the morning and know that if anyone knew, you’d be out the door. kids use the word ‘gay’ as a slur and it might be silly but it makes something hurt inside your chest. you look at your mother and think of the words she’d use to cut you with if you told her. the disgust on her face. you have your family around you and you know it could all be shattered in a minute and it would be you who’d done it.

everyone assumes your straightness. people look at you strangely when you use ‘they/them’ pronouns when asking what their fiancé’s name is, bcs you don’t want to make the same mistake that others make with you. you file forms with spaces for the mother’s name and father’s name and wonder how you’d fill them out if you had a partner and a child. you work with children and wonder what they have to hide about themselves.

and then, sometimes, you go home and read some more fanfic. maybe you write some, or draw fanart if that’s your thing. that’s the best thing, that we’re dreaming about a better world. maybe we’re not famous or published or earning money for what we do. but writing and reading fanworks like this helps a heck of a lot of people, including me, feel happy and comforted and like it’s possible that they might belong one day. that it gets better.

thank you, everyone who creates fanworks where being gay is simply treated as normal. your work is healing and wholesome and full of heart and goodness. and much as i may love the canon, it’s not the canon - it’s the fanworks that are a safe haven to retreat to and recover and heal.

WHY EVERY WRITER SHOULD READ FABLEHAVEN

It’s not because the writing is flawless because, let’s face it, Mull is wonderful at many things but he has no voice or style.

BUT

EVERY. WRITER. CAN. LEARN. FROM. HIS. VILLAINS.

Name one perfect villain. Voldemort? His weakness was arrogance and also breakable items. Galbatorix? Boring. The Ring of Sauron? Is that even a thing? Idk but it’s boring as well. Darth Vader?? Wasn’t he actually a good guy gone wrong? Idk guys I don’t watch these movies sorry.

BUT THE SPHINX

Fucking flawless villain.

He plotted and schemed for millenia. Literally. He was patient and cunning and always about fifty steps ahead of his enemies. He had no weaknesses.

Best of all, his ultimate plan was not to rule the world or achieve immortality or whatever. It was just to make the world a better place, and honestly, it might have worked. He had a whole system set up in advance, he had everything prepared to control the demons. The scariest part? He was so NOT power hungry that he was 100% willing to put his plan down and walk away if the demons were not willing to cooperate. After /thousands/ of years of preparation, he was totally fine with doing that. Because he wasn’t crazy. He was totally logical, totally reasonable. It’s almost terrifying how cunning and intelligent he was.

And he didn’t even hold anything against his enemies. He respected them, he never underestimated them. He played to their strengths and weaknesses perfectly so he could get exactly what he needed from them. They didn’t even realize that they had. (*cough*the dragon betrayal*cough*) and he promised amnesty to them should his plan ever come to fruition. He wanted them on his side and he totally understood that they never would be.

In fact, the only thing that caused his downfall was something he would not have had an iota of control over. I don’t want to give too many spoilers because ~read the books~ but if it weren’t for a betrayal that he never could have seen coming because it was literally in the makings for longer than he’d been alive, his plan would have totally succeeded. He had ALL the cards and he didn’t let his guard down even then. And once the betrayal happened, he joined forces with his enemies to bring down the demons.

The good guys NEVER would have succeeded without the Sphinx.

That’s. What. Makes. Him. A. Perfect. Villain.
