Sometimes I remember my solo Daenerys blog & I just miss that time tbh. Tumblr rp felt so different back then...

Gotta love when the heat triggers the muscles my neck pain which then triggers my migraine which then triggers my nausea.

God, life sucks right now. Mom's cancer is in her brain now too, meaning she needs radiation asap and we can't go to Italy next week because she runs the risks of seizures or strokes if she gets on a plane. Every time life should be kind, it fucks us over these days.

My upstairs neighbor is going to drive me insane one day. My God, I can handle a lot living in an apartment building but the way that woman stomps around her apartment like an elephant is just absolutely ridiculous. Every fucking night, the entire fucking knight. Sit the fuck down, woman.

there was a time when riley might have argued with him ( hell , he still wants to ) - because he hates feeling like he has to be protected. it's not the same as when his mom or sister coddle him , he knows that. FELIX'S RIGHT. this is a world he doesn't understand & isn't supposed to be a part of , but it still stings just a little. he's felt nothing but fragile on and off for the last twenty years and this doesn't help.

that being said though , he tells himself he's going to try and do as he's told. even if the thought of something happening to felix ( or luka ) scares the shit out of him. he sits down at the kitchen island , raking fingers through his curls. "okay. i get it , i do. i just...i don't want anything to happen to you or my brother. this shit is so fucking messed up."

HE'S ALREADY BEEN MADE AWARE OF HOW VINDICTIVE HECTOR COULD BE ( and he really doesn't want to think about what waits in store for felix or luka , if that asshole gets his hands on them again ).

"you were supposed to be safe here."

[handgrenadebrains]

"I'll be really blunt here, Ri: it's a lot more likely that something will happen to us if we're trying to stop you from being a hero or saving your ass. You're a liability, and that's just objective truth." Eyes lock on Riley, because he can tell he's still fighting the urge to protest and he needs to make it clear to him that he's dead serious. Civilians in this sort of situations are just... never good. Before, he'd barely think twice about it but now it terrified him. Because it's Riley. He can't take a single risk, not anymore.

"Let us do what we do, okay? We will keep you and each other safe and you need to trust us that we will." He reaches for Riley's hand again and squeezes it, hard. "Look at it this way: you're the star on the ice here. If there was a life or death situation where we for some reason needed to play and win a game of hockey, I'd follow you blindly because I know that's your world and you know to get us a win better than anyone."

riley had spent his whole life feeling out of place , even when surrounded by his family. NOW ; it all made sense but it was still a lot to get his head around. every memory now felt tainted by what he hadn't known. he knows if his dad was still here , he'd be telling him to focus on the positives. that was always harvey's way. it's nice. having a brother. A BIT WEIRD ; sure , but he wouldn't change it. sure , there were somethings he wishes he could go back and fix. one being that luka hadn't grown up safe and loved like he had ( and riley hated that , hated that his younger brother had to suffer ).

"honestly , not sure how much weirder things can get." a rough chuckle leaves the former hockey player as he reaches down to brush fingers through lucky's fur. lucky had gotten used to luka , even if he still did a double take here and there when seeing them in the same room ( riley had to admit that sometimes when he looked at luka's face , it was a bit eerie. like seeing himself in the mirror ).

when luka speaks , there's this tiny bit of guilt inside riley that only seems to grow. "you should have had that chance too , y'know that right? what happened to you wasn't fair. if i could go back and change that , i would. i get what you're saying - and i appreciate it but....i really wish things had been different for you."

There's a part of Luka that wonders what he would've done if he'd known about Riley sooner. He remembers times as a teenager where he'd thought of running away, of just taking off and never looking back. He never actually went through with it because where would he go? He had no one out there. He could've survived on the streets, but he was just too scared. Now, he finds himself looking at Riley sometimes and imagining a world where he'd known about his existence, ran away from their father and found a home with his brother. It was probably wishful thinking, though.

He shrugs lightly at Riley's words. "There's nothing you could have done, Ri. Dad was smart enough to cover his tracks and I was completely under his influence. You'd have been a teenager running against a brick wall. And there would have been repercussions for that, trust me." As he looks at his brother, he smiles. "One out of two having a good life is a better result than most."

Even after the multiple surgeries in Wakanda, Bucky suffers from chronic pain from the prosthetic. Most days are manageable, but there are days he can hardly breathe because the pain in his shoulder and chest is so severe due to the extensive nerve, muscle and bone damage. However, he refuses to take painkillers as the feeling of being under the influence of them reminds him too much of the times he'd be drugged for brainwashing or before being put in cryostasis.

“ y'think  you  could  .  .  .    maybe ,  uh ,   train  me  up  with  one  of  those ?    i - i  just  wanna  be  useful ,    if  i  can't  be  the  sentry  then  i  wanna  help  somehow ,   if  i  need  to . ”         @handgrenadebrains

[handgrenadebrains]

Eyes travel from Bob to the gun in his hand and back. It wouldn't be the first time he's trained someone, no questions asked. This feels different, though. He slowly shakes his head. "There are other ways to be useful that don't require guns."

Hi Florentina, do you have a rules page for your blog I could read? Thanks :)

Hi! I don't. I firmly believe that all the usual "rules" of tumblr rp all boil down to "don't be an asshole, be a decent human being" so I find it unnecessary to spell them out over and over again. (And if you need me to tell you explicitly not to harass me or godmod or whatever for you to not do that shit, then you're probably a bit of an asshole.)

It also used to give me a shitload of anxiety going over everyone's rules pages constantly out of fear of "doing something wrong" and I don't want to put that on other people.

So no, no rules page. But if you insist on a rule, there's one: I assume that if you're here, you know how this game works and we can have fun together. If your behavior causes me to not have fun anymore, you get blocked. A simple code I intend to live by.
