being young and having grey hair is hot hello beautiful what’s got you so tortured
thought of this immediately and was delighted to discover it’s the same op
remember to be scared all day so youre not caught off guard when it happens
need That character absolutely delirious with fear. recoiling from everything. unable to parse what's happening around them, their mind stuck in fight or flight. shaking and hyperventilating. completely unconsolable even as they're wrapped in a crushing hug.
galaxy brain addition thank you
love when stories inflict unspeakable horrors onto a person for no real reason. its not karma. its not payback. its not a lesson. its not your fault. no ones even out to get you in particular. youre not the chosen one or special or anything. it just sorta happened and you were there. sorry man
is THIS your man? [shows an image of a malnourished injured exhausted man with big sad eyes looking up at the camera with blood smeared all over his face and mouth. and he is visibly trembling]
heartwarming: this guy is so nervous he's about to throw up
touch-starvation needs to be written with emphasis on the starving part. you are hungry to be touched. so hungry that even the very taste of it makes you nauseous. it has been long since anything has ever touched you, ever fed you - that your body has grown more used to that gnawing emptiness more than anything else. it's better for you to be held, to eat but it makes you sick to try. you know
Love the concept of Bad Thing that provides protection from Even Worse Thing. This villan has dibs on killing me someday, so they’re not going to let anyone else do it. Person has a permanent illness that’s super hostile to any other type of infection. Lawful evil tyrant absolutely PISSED at chaotic evil invader killing their subjects. Person has been cursed by the gods but the curse supersedes all other hexes and magical ills. This shit absolutely charges my batteries.
top five most important things you can give a character. 1. bisexuality. 2. autism. 3. so much negative rizz it loops around into irresistibility. 4. so many bad events. 5. a coping mechanism that’s cute and silly provided you don’t think about it too hard
there really are few emotions i find more compelling in a story than "you should be afraid of me. please don't be afraid of me"

God announces plans to play His "Cruelest trick to date!"
theyre pinning my wings to a cork board tomorrow
ITS ALL A BLUR, THE PERSON YOU ARE AND THE PERSON YOU WERE.
i'm aware how this makes me sound but there is nothing more compelling to me than a person's response to fear i will analyse that shit frame by frame
