natasha’s well aware of her pessimistic outlook on life. it’s safe, keeps her in a rut that she can only look up out of. and being kind to people she doesn’t know ( barely knows, whatever, the difference is nothing these days ) doesn’t make her life any easier. but then poe’s like a bright ray of sunshine that blinds even her cruelest ambitions. he’s kind in the face of a life that would break a lesser person. and it confuses her. “ talking to you is like talking to a brick wall, ” she grumbles, mirroring poe’s body language by leaning against the opposite wall. 

“ so then where does that leave you? ” she asks, turning to look away to avoid his gaze. “ you’re kind. in the face of things that could steal everything from you. you’re good, and don’t bother arguing with me about that. does that mean you make life more difficult for yourself for no reason than other people’s lives? ”

it’s not that he doesn’t understand where she’s coming from. he very much does, actually, he’s just chosen not to fall into it. and it was an active choice on his part. to see the worst of the galaxy and refuse to give in, be the man that he could be if he decided to stop fighting for the light. “i’ve been told that before. my papa used to say that fighting me was almost never worth the trouble cause i was so stubborn.” it was that same stubbornness that allowed him to remain hopeful, kind, in the face of this. 

a shrug. she said not to argue on that point and though he’s never been totally confident that there is one point of goodness, one place where he can stand and say yes, now i’m good he’ll concede to that point. “i guess.  but i wouldn’t say other people’s lives is no reason. i don’t mind fighting, i’ll fight a war for other people if it means they’ll be safe.”

“ it’s cute that you’re trying to pick out girls for me, ” sara leans over and drops her hand on poe’s shoulder in a more buddy-buddy show of appreciation. while taking someone home for the night would be nice, she’s really just enjoying spending time with something who isn’t trying to ruin her dating life. namely her entire merry band of misfits. “ she’s both hot and looks like me, though. so you’re getting warmer. ” sara spins on her bar stool and waves at the bartender, nudging poe with her shoulder. “ wanna get wasted and dance with people whose names we don’t know? ”

@inspiredflight // cont

“i’m gay but i have eyes, i know when a woman is hot.” a shrug and a grin but he meets her rejection of the woman equally as good naturedly as he’d given it. it was nice, being out, having fun, he tried not to think too much about how his cat was almost certainly waiting up for him. she’d be fine. probably. or he’d come back to an anxious cat and a destroyed planet, really it was up in the air. “yeah, that sounds good, but i’m not holding your hair back if you drink too much.” even that’s a joke because, yes, of course he would do that if she needed.

my heart goes out to syrians right now, the last thing you need is useless attacks meant to strong arm radical leaders while simultaneously harming innocent lives. this was completely avoidable and not at all necessary in the slightest what syria needs is aid, financial and otherwise, to help them achieve stability. refugees need to be saved and protected, not bombed and threatened.

here are a list of charities you can donate to to help syria and its people:

save the children

u.s. fund for unicef

islamic relief usa

international rescue committee

the white helmets

syrian american medical society

doctors without borders

“Look, your heart is in the right place. Just– be more CAREFUL, next time, alright?”

@spideyaunt

that is very kind, very good, and very genuine advice. that will almost certainly be ignored. “yeah, i’ll keep that in mind.” he looks down at his feet for a long moment before looking back up with a charming grin on his face. it’s advice his parents would love for him to take, advice most people would, but taking it slow or being careful had never set very easily on his shoulders. sometimes people thought he had a death wish. he didn’t. never had. he just refused to sit still when there were things to be done and he was capable of acting.

"do you need some space?"

@mcckings

“yes. no. i don’t know.” 

he isn’t used to this yet, the way his breathing catches and it feels the word is falling down around him, it happens and will probably happen for the rest of his life. doesn’t mean he’s going to learn to carry it. right now that seems impossible. “i need water.”

[crownedpilotarchive]

i do not want to die who i am. i’d like to live long enough to be someone else.~

@oceansburned

he wishes, desperately, that he could take that thought from his mind but he knows he can’t, everyone has their burdens and as much as poe might want to sometimes he cannot take everyone’s on his own shoulders. so he presses his lips to grog’s shoulder and wraps his arms around the man’s waist, pulling him into a hug. “i like who you are.” it’s the truth but he knows that sometimes grog doesn’t, so he doesn’t fault him for wanting to grow and change. “i just want you to be happy, so i’ll do whatever you need to help.” 

after a moment poe forced himself to pull away. “i’ve seen you change, i’ve watched it happen, you aren’t the man you were the first time you showed up on one of our bases.”

          returning to the force had been like stepping into the warm embrace of an old friend, familiar and consuming and welcoming. once again, his light flared and burned within him, wrapping around him and providing a degree of  peace  he’s not felt for years. and yet … he could not still his unease about the days to come, nor the restless visions that plague his nights. touching the force in rest aids his initial drift into slumber, but the force is not quiet, and he’s fallen out of practice in suppressing its voice.           raising a brow, luke meets the gaze of the pilot, fixing him with  a look.   ❝ young man. ❞   his tone is serious, instilled with the practiced authority of both a jedi master and former general, but the glitter in his eyes is meant to soften it somewhat.   ❝ you’re an exceptional commander and an even better pilot, but don’t  think for a moment that you’re capable of getting  ME  to do something I don’t  want  to do. ❞   the corners of his lips twitch upwards and he gives his head a light shake. exhaling, he allows the last traces of authority to seep out of his tone, and his voice is  softer  when he speaks next.   ❝ I may not have to stay up with you, but I’m not likely to sleep anytime soon. so since we’re both going to be up anyways, would you like something to drink ?? I could use a mug of hot chocolate, myself. ❞

there have been times where poe thinks of asking his father questions about what war does to you, about the ways it takes you and chews you up and spits you out because he knows that kes has seen enough of it to have answers. but he doesn’t, won’t put him in the position of reliving those parts of his life unless he has no choice. so he finds his own ways to deal. mostly that comes in the form of working. not the worst coping mechanism around.

he tries, fails mostly he’s almost certain, to suppress a grin at the older man’s tone. “yes, sir, of course, sir.” his tone is a mockery of what he would use with someone actually reprimanding him but he hopes that luke won’t mind. poe has a lot of respect for people that have earned it, and this man certainly has, but that doesn’t mean he’s got any plans to bend over backwards for him. “i could use some caf, if you’re offering.” and some food, probably/ so he forces himself away from the desk he’d been working over. “lead the way.”
