I have a Novel Idea for u all, hear me out:

Stop making fucking assumptions abt other ppls fucking relationships.

Stop insisting u know more about someone elses attractions and dynamics with others then they do, why the fuck would you ever think you do??

Stop going on random ppls posts talking abt how they experience attraction or gender or lack thereof and Telling Them "ah yes, you are obviously This Thing!" "Theres a word for this!! Did u know? Its this!!"

If someone is genuinely feeling lost about themselves and they find terms and have the whole "WAIT THERES A WORD FOR THAT??" its great, but. Coming across the words urself, or someone else telling you after youve Explicitly Asked "is this like. A thing or am i just like weird and wrong" is. SO MUCH DIFFERENT, than

"I use x term bc it works to describe my experiences, but everyone keeps Yelling at me about this, and insisting i use This Term or That One, or that i Obviously Am Wrong and dont experience things the way i do" and getting responses "theres a word for that! Its this!"

Like??? I get it, u wanna help, maybe uve recently discovered the terms and ur like. Rly excited!! And ur just trying to help!!! But,, look at it like this, ive seen Labels get compared to this before and i think its a great analogy:

"As any cat owner will tell you, theres a world of difference between getting in the box yourself, and being Put in the box"

If you genuinely think, that the person hasnt found "their box" and u think u have it, maybe just?? At least ask first, if they even want that kind of feedback? Bc sometimes ppl arent necessarily Questioning, rather theyre Venting abt labels, and honeslty, the last thing you want when ur venting abt how frustrated you are, with the way your labels or lack thereof are received, is Yet Another Person throwing more labels at you unprompted.

drabble | screw homework tho

The news had reached him at a slow and leisurely pace. Satou was hospitalized. His girlfriend had pushed herself into another episode and had to rest for a week under careful observation.

So in contrast, his arrival was not slow or leisurely. When he arrived at her room he was breathless... Not as panicked as when he’d read the message, but certainly exhausted. There had been a lot of stuff to do before he came to visit her. A lot... Thinking-wise, and doing-wise.

Seeing her sitting in her hospital bed with classic Anime Mom Hair reaffirmed all of the tough choices he’d made.

“Shugo!” She was ‘alone’ when he arrived. It was no secret that Mikale was lurking up and down the hallways, ready to step in if Shugo didn’t actually get there in ‘five minutes’ like his texts had promised. Her cheeks were paler than usual, giving her a sickly apparance... As if the numerous machines she was attached to weren’t clue enough.

Yet somehow, the room he was entering felt very homey and warm. Shugo set his bag down in the chair Mikale might have occupied before, then welcoming himself to sit on the edge of the bed with her.

“Hey. Sorry for taking so long.” He smiled weakly, feeling his nerves tie up. His mothers had been oddly okay with his choice... His real concern was how Satou would see it. “You should have told me you were renting a hospital room and throwing a party.”

“If you didn’t get told then it’s because you weren’t cool enough to come.” Satou teased softly, “Thanks for ruining my party.”

“You’re welcome.” Shugo laughed, “You feeling any better?”

“Of course I am!” She pouted, “Everyone is overreacting! I just got overly emotional because Leon is stupid.”

“Satou...”

His tone wasn’t actually scolding, but Satou understood it as such. “... I guess getting tazed was bad for me after all.”

“You guess.” Shugo sighed. If he’d been more careful and maybe actually around then she’d have never been kidnapped. She wouldn’t be single-handedly taking care of their friends and family either. His gold gaze scanned her expression, watching as the childish pout switched to a more mature, knowing expression.

“So what are you afraid to tell me?” Her voice was soft now. Well... It wasn’t like he could keep it a secret for very long.

Shugo breathed in-- “I dropped out of school.” --and then waited.

She was silent. Satou’s eyes went wide and her expression began shifting. At first shocked, then confused... thoughtful, then knowing.. understanding... and finally, brimming with tears. “B-but... How do nerds live without school, Shugo?”

pfffffff. He scowled. “We find new ways to live.”

“But you like school.”

“And I love you.” Shugo reached out to gently pinch her cheek... then released his grip to work on wiping those silly tears. It was hard, given how his hand was still suffering from permanent nerve damage.

 “I’m sorry. I didn’t realize how lonely you were... No, I did. I just ignored it, telling myself that once I graduated I would make up for everything I’d put you through. But you don’t deserve to wait that long.”

“Sh-Shugo...?” Satou hiccuped. Of course she’d cry. She always cried these days and he really wished he wasn’t a reason for more tears. “I-It’s okay. You’re worth waiting for...”

“And you’re worth that times a thousand.” He admitted, “I wanted to finish school so I could support ‘us.’ So it’ll be a while longer before that can happen...”

The way Shugo’s voice trailed off hurt them both. They tried to be optimistic about it, but with her sitting in the hospital and both of them understanding her medical charts, optimism was pretty damn hard. She knew the other reason Shugo was leaving school... He didn’t want to waste what little time she probably had left.

She leaned into his hand, smiling regardless of the sad horizon. “But we’ll be together until then, right?”

Shugo didn’t hesitate this time. Instead he leaned in to kiss her lips and then pull her into his arms. “I love you, blockhead.”

“Yeah... I love you too, darling.”
