Alright kids say it with me
My thoughts don’t make me a bad person
My feelings don’t make me a bad person
My thoughts, feelings, and impulses only exist inside my head, and none of it matters unless I act on it
Nobody can see my thoughts or emotions
The only things anyone can see and judge me on are my actions
There’s no such thing as a thought crime
thank u
You can have harmful beliefs and harmful impulses and harmful urges and not be evil. You can make yourself aware that these things are harmful and take steps to correct yourself and not be evil. You can walk around with the urge to kick puppies all goddamn day and as long as you are capable of redirecting that impulse to something benign then it doesn’t matter. I don’t know how else to say this
i hope that someday there will be no more advertisements ever again

Not Her, You
Beth had been hanging around way too much lately.
She wasn’t part of the team. She wasn’t even part of the case. But ever since she stopped by that one time to “drop off something,” she’d been popping in with coffee, jokes, smiles… and a suspicious amount of perfume.
It wasn’t like she was doing anything wrong, not technically. But you weren’t blind. Or stupid.
The way she leaned over Aaron’s desk just a little too far. The way she laughed like she was starring in a rom-com. The way she touched his arm when she “just had to show him” something on her phone.
You hated it.
What made it worse? Aaron didn’t react. Not in the way you expected. He didn’t push her away, didn’t glare, didn’t correct her. He just let her talk. Let her hover.
Your stomach flipped every time you caught her trying to get close.
He wasn’t paying attention to her—but he wasn’t stopping her, either.
And that? That made your blood simmer.
You sat at your desk, trying to focus on the file in your hand, but your eyes flicked up—again—to see her standing beside his office door, laughing at something she thought was funny. He gave her a closed-lip smile, polite, unreadable.
You stared at your page. You didn’t see a single word of it.
A few minutes later, a shadow passed your desk. You didn’t even look up until a mug slid into view—your favorite one. The one only Aaron used when he made coffee for you.
You blinked.
When you looked up, he was standing right there. Still in his suit, tie loosened just slightly—only ever around you. His expression was unreadable to most, but you saw the shift. The softness. The knowing in his eyes.
“Office. Now,” he said quietly.
You followed him up without a word, past a very confused-looking Beth, and stepped into his office. He shut the door and turned the blinds—slow, deliberate. When he turned around, his arms crossed loosely over his chest.
“You’re upset.”
You scoffed, folding your arms to match. “Gee, what gave it away?”
He raised an eyebrow, waiting.
You bit your lip, then finally muttered, “She keeps trying.”
Aaron nodded slowly. “I’ve noticed.”
You blinked. “You have?”
“I’m not oblivious,” he said. “But I’m not interested in her.”
“Yeah, well, she’s not exactly subtle.”
He stepped closer. “And neither is your jealousy.”
You rolled your eyes. “I’m not jealous.”
“Yes, you are.”
Silence.
You sighed. “Okay, fine. I just don’t like it. I don’t like the way she looks at you.”
“You think I don’t notice the way I look at you?” he said gently.
Your breath caught.
“She wants my attention,” Aaron said, stepping into your space. “But she’ll never get it. Because the only person I see—in every room, every briefing, every second—is you.”
You looked up at him, heart stuttering. “You could at least tell her to back off.”
Aaron smiled then—small, but wicked. “Oh, I will. But I figured bringing you into my office right in front of her was a better start.”
You blinked. “Wait, that was—on purpose?”
He leaned in, voice low, possessive. “Of course it was.”
You smirked, but tried to play innocent. “That’s kind of mean.”
“She crossed a line,” he said. “I don’t share.”
Your heart fluttered.
“You want me to make it even clearer?” he asked, voice dropping.
You swallowed hard. “Aaron—”
He tilted your chin up and kissed you. Not soft. Not casual. Slow, steady, intentional. The kind of kiss that left no room for questions—not inside the office, not through the glass, not to anyone watching.
When he finally pulled back, you whispered, “Message received.”
He smiled again, brushing a thumb over your cheek. “Not for you. For her.”
From that moment on, Beth never lingered again.
And you never doubted where Aaron’s attention really was.
peaceful windows 🌸✨

SCROLL BACK IT'S ART
They really should start college at like 24 or something. Idk. I just feel like I wasn’t able to think right ab the future or make decisions when I was younger. I guess that’s that prefrontal cortex they told me about
Long story short I couldn’t find a stable enough job with my first degree so I went *back* to school at 24 and honestly it was a great idea
killatrav: Had some adventures this offseason, kept it 💯

OMG IT'S MR. FLUFFY PANTS!
i love re-consuming media i used to love when i was younger. like wow! child me still is in me i am holding her hand and keeping her safe and doing her favorite things with her!!!!
I’ve been doing this a lot lately actually because stuff from when I was little comforts me when my anxiety gets bad lol. Also been watching some cartoons that I never really saw the first time around and it’s a good time, would recommend 👌
i want someone to look at me and go, yeah i need her picture in a heart-shaped locket around my neck expeditiously
