an aesthetic that will never go out of style: making others feel loved, needed, and important

❛ Everyone’s immortal until they’re not. ❜

eyes perhaps too perceptive, too old for the young face that holds them, regard the other with a solemn sort of understanding. with loss as a constant bedfellow, it is hard to remain soft. even she, who loves so freely and so fully, has not quite kept at bay the creeping despair. at times it abates, can be pushed aside, but none are free of this burden. none who lead this life truly are.

the life of a shinobi can be both fleeting and terribly short, often cut to the quick with tragedy and suffering. this is the underlying truth of it all: to serve it to give fully of oneself, even after death. there is no room for fear of it or indecision.

tenshi-no:

It wasn’t that Sakura herself was scared, more apprehensive than anything; but she had to put a cap on her wildly beating heart so as to not worry Hinata. She was a brave girl, extremely brave, but she knew how easy it was to get worked up off someone else’s emotions. “You’re too nice.” The young girl mused, a shake of her head as nimble fingers moved to flip her sweater’s hood up. “Unless of course we make them take a shower with their clothes on, and then make them walk around town.” A hard laugh as she notched her head in indication that she was going to start walking, the forest looming threateningly before them; dark and eerie with the night wind howling wildly.

As she slowly picked her way over broken tree branches, and crunching leaves Sakura recalled a time where seemingly terrifying dares such as this one didn’t bother her; a time where she was stupidly brave if nothing else. Now she was old enough to know there was more than ghosts and ghouls creeping in the shadows, things more sinister than the supernatural. “Or we can make them run a few blocks totally naked.” Sakura grumbled, bottom lip pulled between her teeth as she cast Hinata an amused glance over her shoulder, “Definitely fair if you ask me. They’re forcing us to trespass, we should force them to be publicly indecent.” 

The city street lights have long since faded behind them, Sakura pulling out her phone to turn on her flashlight app. The forest was just that; a forest with trees, animals, and fungi. She had to remember that. The sound of chattering and smaller night creatures could be heard, the caw of a bird and the rustling of their own feet adding to the tempo. No strange noises present to cause worry. Nonetheless the further they walked the farther back Sakura fell until she was side by side with Hinata, their shoulders just brushing and offering her a familiar comfort.  

a grimace crosses delicate features: for a terrifying moment she imagines the boys streaking, naked as the day they were born.  ❛   they would be really cold, i-it’s fall, sakura ...   ❜ she answers charitably before the rustle of a bush reminds her of where exactly they are. suddenly, all of her thoughts of mercy fly out the window. she shivers from more than the chill, though even her thick sweater isn’t enough to quite protect her from the october air. 

she’s never been superstitious, but of course the boys would choose the weekend before halloween for this stunt. hinata tries to ease herself with the thought that everyone must to this to their friends at one time or another, and nobody’s died or gotten lost ! it’s just a ... highschool rite of passage, and at least she isn’t doing it alone ! having sakura at her side is a comfort at the very least.

❛    a-actually, that sounds like a good idea.    ❜ her smile isn’t exactly mean, but it is somewhat of a grimace. child’s tales, but the konoha strangler is said to be out in these woods to this very day ! she supposes that if she wasn’t a little tipsy she wouldn’t be very afraid at all. nighttime is calming in the way the day isn’t; everything is still and quiet and beautiful in the moonlight. maybe if the trees were less crowded and the ground less muddy from recent rain, it might even be a pleasant stroll in a large group. 

but now ...  ❛    i didn’t really dress for ... this.    ❜ sneakers aren’t the most impractical of shoes, but hers are a rather pure white. or they were until a few moments ago.

A DARKER SHADE OF MAGIC / A GATHERING OF SHADOWS by v. e. schwab sentence meme.

❛  I’d rather die on an adventure than live standing still.  ❜

❛  After all, you can kill people, but you cannot kill magic. Not truly.  ❜

❛  Impossible. What a useless word, in a world with magic.  ❜

❛  Everyone thinks I have a death wish, you know? But I don’t want to die – dying is easy. No, I want to live, but getting close to death is the only way to feel alive. And once you do, it makes you realize that everything you were actually doing before wasn’t actually living. It was just making do. Call me crazy, but I think we do the best living when the stakes are high.  ❜

❛  You have two faces. One you wear for the world at large, and the one you wear for those you love.  ❜

❛  Everyone’s immortal until they’re not.  ❜

❛  It is as it is. It cannot be undone. So please, be grateful, and be done with it.  ❜

❛  The thing about freedom? It doesn’t come naturally. Almost no one has it handed to them. I’m free because I fought for it.  ❜

❛  I know you can do this. I know you can hear me. Stay with me. Listen to my voice.  ❜

❛  Maybe you just got a taste of what it really means to be alive. You almost died. So now you know what it feels like to live. To fear for that life. To fight for it. And once you know, well, there’s no going back.  ❜

❛  You made a mistake. Everybody makes them. Even me. I’ve made many. It’s only fair that you made one.  ❜

❛  I did only what I had to do. If I could have given my life for yours, I would have.  ❜

❛  A kiss for luck. Not that I need it.  ❜

❛  I know. I know what and who you are. What will you do? Kill me?  ❜

❛  Why am I the only one in this fucking world to be held accountable for my actions?  ❜

❛  Aren’t you afraid of dying?  ❜

❛  I’m sorry. For whatever happened to you. For whoever hurt you so deeply that you see things like friends and fondness as weapons instead of shields.  ❜

❛  You know so little of war. Battles may be fought from the outside in, but wars are won from the inside out.  ❜

❛  Between the two of us, we’ll tear the whole world down.  ❜

❛  I am going to cut that smile off your face.  ❜

❛  It hurts. More than dying ever did. There are days when I feel like I deserve this.  ❜

❛  Death doesn’t scare me. Not nearly as much as the idea of wasting a perfectly good life in fear of it.  ❜

❛ You’re always so eager to slash and stab, why couldn’t you have stabbed him.  ❜

❛  Which is it, huh? You’re angry at me, or worried about me, or happy to see me? Because I can’t keep up.  ❜

❛  Wouldn’t it be amazing, if we got away with it?  ❜

Since her fear did her no good, she ceased to be afraid.

  “You want to hear about extreme? Hinata, I can’t feel my legs, or my arms. I don’t think I can feel my stomach either, look – ow, nevermind, I can DEFINITELY feel my stomach.”

  Using the last of her energy, she flipped over onto her back, sighing in relief as the world finally seemed to stop spinning. “Why did we think it would be a good idea to try Lee’s regime for a day?”

[softheartes-blog]

there’s nothing she can really argue about all that: she’s never felt like she’s trained this hard in her entire life ! a few hours of it is grueling enough. how lee and gai manage this all day, every day is beyond her.  

 ❛     well. i think i do feel a bit stronger !    ❜ a bit of diplomacy. in truth, she is suffering just the same. if less vocal about it. 

❛     and i think i g-grew to respect him a bit more from this too ! he trains s-so much harder than anyone else.     ❜

             “And just what exactly are you doing up and about after hours, Miss Hyuuga?”

[softheartes-blog]

the light at the tip of her wand is quickly muffled beneath her robes. too late, as she’s already been caught, but the instinct moves her before thought does. the warm tip of it, lightly pulsing with the soothing familiarity of her magic, is almost accusation against her side. she shouldn’t be up this late  ━━   and certainly not wandering around the school. 

especially, well. she had wanted to see the forest.

❛     i  just  ━━  uhm !    ❜ how does she explain that she wanted to search for night-blooming shrubs but didn’t think she’d be allowed to do so ? never a rebellious child, the concept of getting in trouble for being caught as she is now terrifies her.  ❛     p-please don’t tell my father !    ❜
