Only one person in the world had ever truly loved me—or so I thought.

Kate Stevens, from Bride of Brutal Hearts

It’s a very good fandom tho

if you want to take me down i will latch onto you like the parasite you see me as in your decrepit eyes until we are both six feet in the ground

If you woke up one morning as a literal dog, would you consider that a good thing?

That is such a hard question because in theory: YES. That is the dream ✨

Realistically however... I have concerns. Can I communicate reliability to my loved ones that it is me? I think I could probably manage that. I would then be dependent on my friends and family though. Am I just a dog forever? I can't take myself on walks. Does someone have to pick up my poop? I like being independent, I am currently very financially secure but a dog can't work -- which is part of the appeal in theory. However. We do live under capitalism. Someone has to buy me my slop. So uhhh...

As much as it breaks my heart to say... I would certainly make the most of it and have a lot of great experiences but... unless I can shift back and forth between human and dog (in which case we are going back to the YES)...

No.

I would not consider waking up as a dog tomorrow a good thing 🥲

...

I would absolutely love being my friendos' emotional support dog. But not full time. Dogs can't write fanfic either. I'd be so bored so quickly...

"Little girls grow up thinking knights in shining armor actually exist. But they don’t. And if those valiant heroes ever did bless this world with their chivalrous deeds, I imagine, just like Christ’s apostles, they were destroyed by envy on the battlefront."
