i like when fiction treats love as a more complicated force and not something that is inherently pure or redemptive. portray it as flawed and complex as any other human impulse. give me love as prejudice, love as possessive stasis, love as addiction, love as blindness, etc.

did perfectionism ever truly protect you from harm or neglect as a child though. ultimately. Lol

[greelin]

[REALLY NORMAL AND WELL-ADJUSTED VOICE] well you never know maybe it COULD have saved me. if i ever actually achieved perfection. it could have happened then. if i was actually ever enough. Which i was not

"Does this"—you show your tattoo—"not mean anything?" "It's just a tattoo. Just ink on skin," she answers, lips pursing.

A wonderful and amazing commission I received from @microplaid of Noa (my mc) and Seven! Specifically from one of my favorite moments in chapter four of @infamous-if

i have a personality flaw that always positions me on the side of characters who are hiding everything and refuse to accept help. like do NOT confide in people. confiding in people is the enemy. REAL winners lie and lie and continue lying until they ruin every single thing theyve got going for them & didnt fix a single goddamn thing. keep digging grandpa youre almost there

What's on your mind? Can I have a little peek inside? How are we on time? It comes in ripples but my love is blind

i love it when characters are unfair, actually. i love it when they’re uncouth and cranky and hypocritical, i love it when they have cognitive dissonances, i love it when they make good and bad choices for the wrong reasons. i love when they’re short to anger and hard to understand. i love it when they’ve destroyed themselves for nothing but can’t even see either part of it yet. i love it when they’re messy and selfish and bad at communicating. i love it when they get convinced of their own ego and stuck in a feedback loop regarding their own warped paranoia. i love it when characters actively make their lives unknowingly harder for themselves. i love it when characters don’t know they’re in a story. i love it when characters are like real people

ok so its a pretty good story but you know what would make it better? a liar. a character who lies. maybe two.

"what if they fucked" WRONG. what if they ruined each other's lives irreparably. what if there was nothing left but a smoldering heap. what if everything that brought them together twisted and corroded and ripped them apart. and then they fucked.

youre stuck to me like some gum on my shoessss

When the character makes selfish decisions fully knowing it's the wrong choice. and then it causes them and everyone else pain and disaster and ruins everything 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

Does anyone want to get matching tattoos and immediately have an unsalvageable falling out

well-written women who narratively suck are like crack cocaine to me. hello shitty little woman do you need some crumbs of love that you've clearly never been given? lol
