‘do you know what a majority vote is?’ this doesnt have to be for freddie but thats easiest probably

MAJORITY VOTE.

              ‘  yeah  ,  ’  syd  stands  with                              her feet shoulder width apart, hands on her hips -- she’s balanced, strong. ‘why? that isn’t how things work, here. strangers don’t just get to walk in and ask for votes. it has to be discussed.’

@foundheroic  liked // from five !

       back when he was a kid  --  a real kid  --  he’d accepted that he’d be working with all sorts of authority figures in the future.    no one wants a hero who isn’t perfect and law - abiding running around.      it’s nice to see that his siblings hadn’t stuck to that any more than he had  ;  now, when he’s around anyone who seems like they might be important, he just gets antsy.    that isn’t going to stop him from acting like he belongs here.        “     i could go for a drink about now.    this city stresses me out.    you been around here long ?    ”

❝   no    use    talking    of    the    past,    it’s    passed.    set    out    walking    and    you    don’t    look    back.    ❞

          “     so, what kind of law do you do ?    ”     bad wording, there.    come on, eddie, you’re a journalist, you shouldn’t have this much trouble talking.    fact of the matter is, he always gets kind of edgy about legal authority figures.    if he’d ever gotten caught, his rap sheet would raise a few eyebrows.     maybe it’s only half him, but no one’s going to be worrying about arresting the alien in his body.    he tries for an easy joke, like he’s holding an interview.     “     i’m a journalist, we’re always looking for more connections.     and people tell me i should get more official sources.      ”

not to switch blogs mid sending these but for moritz, examine melchior

MORITZ: EXAMINE.

melchior is your best friend  –  well, you think that he is. sometimes you worry, but sometimes you worry about everything. he’s much more confident than you are, always questioning lessons, arguing with authority figures. he does all the things you only dream of doing  --  those things you keep inside your head, echoing over and over.

you worry for him a lot ; he’d probably laugh if you told him that, because he is confident, and he is unafraid. mostly, though, you just wish you could be him  --  that is, you wish you could have his bravery, even just the smallest smidge of it. you wish you could go along with his ideas, be more encouraging than you are. but you have a lot to lose, and your mind works against you, so maybe you’ll just be quiet again.

sometimes you worry you’ll lose him in the process.

“rest assured, you’ll go far.” aw

when we’re gone.

      he knows he should accept the compliment  --  denying things only makes both parties feel terrible  --  but talking about his future always leaves him feeling strange.    it almost feels out of his hands.    because it is, he reasons ; still, he smiles politely.     “    thank you.    i’m not looking for too much, really.     if i’ve helped anyone, i’ll consider my life a success.     ”

ok im 99% there was a scene where all of the kids were forced to get that umbrella tattoo. so if thats real and not me having paid little attention to the show, then: for five, examine tattoo

FIVE: EXAMINE.

you were scared to get it. you’re pretty sure all of you were  --  even so, you did your best to keep your chin up, to appear fearless. it wouldn’t do for your father to see your trepidation, not when he barely seems to respect you as is. you rub your fingers over the ink as if it’ll smudged ; it faded after decades of dirt and grime, but now, in this new-old body, it’s as fresh as blood.

out there, in the end of the world, it served as a bitter reminder of what was left behind. you struggle to take ownership for your own hubris  --  your dad was never going to let you do this, and so it is his fault that you took matters into your own hand. he only wanted to keep all of you in line ; the tattoos were not a symbol of teamwork but of the tight leash he held all of you under. 

you wouldn’t get it removed if you could ; sometimes, reminders are good.

for chihiro, examine fukawa!

CHIHIRO: EXAMINE.

you can relate to her in a lot of ways  --  really, most of the differences in your personalities only come about because you express your inferiority complex in tears and she expresses it in anger. you’ve wish you two got along better, but you also admit that doesn’t really mean anything ; you would like to befriend everyone, but your own fear gets in the way a lot. she does scare you more than the average person does, but that isn’t really her fault.

you’ve read a couple of her books  --  you were never big on reading novels, and she’s got way too many for you to ever get through all of them, but the ones you read were amazing! soft, and kind, and lovely  --  you like watching romantic movies, so it makes sense you’d like novels of the same caliber. her’s always make you cry, not because they’re depressing, but because they’re so beautiful.

you would love to live in such a perfect world,
