I saw this on Instagram and just had to share with you.

Tony death sequence and farewell was not blatant, or big but simple, calm. Surrounded by the people who accompanied him on his journey people who loved him and that he loved back. But the thing that hurts me the most is that the last words he said were the name of his love one “Pepper.”
Despite the suffering and the energy that was leaving his body second by second as soon as he saw her, he smiled and struggling he whispered one last time her name. With all his strength in the last moment and breath he whispered her name.
It breaks me thinking about his initial words in the movie “When I drift off i’ll dream about you. It’s always you.”
Before he died the last face he saw was hers and Pepper despite being devastated by pain she put on a brave face, smiled one last time at the man she loved and whispered “You can rest now” in a sweet way, calm and peaceful making it clear to him that everything would be fine only to make him pass away in a more serene way possible and then when Tony left she collapsed. Pepper knew him better than anyone else and in his last moment she gave him what he needed the most she gave him peace.
The calmness of that scene, the delicacy of all her words and consideration “You can Rest Now” that ’s what breaks me and it’ s the thing that will haunt me forever.

All you do is yell at each other, you’re not friends. No, we’re f a m i l y.
This is probably the most real quote ever. I’m not sure if my family has ever been together without yelling at some point.
I’d been meaning to make a rec list for a while, but now I’m finally getting around to it! I’ve read or started to read most of the books on this list, and I own 95% of them. If I haven’t read it, but someone has recommended it to me, I’ve included it. I know that there are books I’ve read or have been meaning to read that aren’t on here because my memory is shit and I never write anything down. Titles link to Goodreads.
An asterisk (*) indicates a book I haven’t read yet. A pound sign (#) indicates a book I haven’t read yet, but which others have recommended. A tilde (~) indicates a book I’m in the process of reading and would recommend up to the current point (aka “I don’t know if this book has a terrible second half, but so far it’s good”). Italics indicate a personal favorite.
