Beauty is a fairy; sometimes she hides herself in a flower-cup, or under a leaf, or creeps into the old ivy, and plays hide-and-seek with the sunbeams, or haunts some ruined spot, or laughs out of a bright young face.

-- George Augustus Henry Sala

I don't know where this came from, but it wouldn't leave me alone until I wrote it out. Have more Heinrix and Visenya angst!

I need help. These two make me sick. Someone come get me!

They lay in each other’s arms, spent and content, their breath still hot on one another’s skin as desire gave way to pleasant euphoria. Visenya kissed at the hollow of his throat, and Heinrix pulled her close, tangling his fingers in her hair and resting her head below his chin. His mind was in freefall, dizzied and overwhelmed by the sheer impossibility of it all. That Visenya was even alive - that she'd survived the Dark City was a miracle in itself. But for her to be here, with him...it was an outcome Heinrix had not dared to hope for, even in his most pitiful of fantasies. And now, his brain struggled to reconcile what his heart felt. "I missed you," Visenya murmured, voice drowsy as she began to drift into sleep. "When I was there, on nights I couldn't sleep...I tried to remember the sound of your voice. It helped..." Heinrix squeezed his eyes shut and pressed his lips to her brow, swallowing down the miserable noise that wanted to rip its way out of his throat. Guilt wrenched tightly in his chest, and while he knew her words were not intended to harm, they hurt all the same. Because rather than being there to prevent her pain, he was here in the aftermath, trying to mend what he had allowed to break. "I'm here now," Heinrix whispered, pressing another series of kisses against her skin - a sequence of promises to never be so negligent again. It wasn't good enough, but it was all he had. "You were there, too..." she mumbled, sounding halfway submerged in dreams, far too willing to let his mistakes go unanswered for. He clung to her as she fell into a deep sleep, faintly activating his biomancy in order to monitor the rhythm of her heart and the tension in her body. It was only after Heinrix was certain she had fully given over to rest that he permitted himself to come undone - tears stinging the corners of his eyes as he set his jaw and grit his teeth, determined not to wake her. Determined to suffer this condemnation alone. For the first time since Visenya's disappearance, Heinrix wept - quiet and shameful. Overwrought with emotion, his body strung out on the chemical residues of countless stims, he let all of the misery and manic turmoil of the past weeks crash down on him like a wave. It threatened to drown him, to pull him under and suffocate him in the torment of his failure. Instead, he held fast to Visenya as the storm in his heart churned and howled - finally able to withstand the devastation now she was safe in his arms.

....i reversed it

So if I see a bunch of people I follow unintentionally posting misinformation or AI 'art' on here, because it usually does happen in waves, I generally will make a post about it trying to remind people to check their sources. (I didn't with the colorful moon photos, because honestly I have been too tired and lazy) I never intend to come across as an asshole, and unless I am actually angry about it, I try to inject humor and lightheartedness into the post, but this is me, and I know it falls flat, and I inevitably upset someone. I guess making a public post is bad and I just shouldn't say anything? But I always want the most people to see it, and I'm sorry, but I am not going to message ten people and tell them something they posted was 'wrong'. That feels incredibly aggressive and personal, and I don't really have the energy for that. (Like, I'd message someone if I actually thought something they posted was dangerously bad, but I've yet to see that happen.)

I also think it is incredibly important to check your sources in other areas of the internet, not just Tumblr. Blindly sharing things is how people fall for scams and even just things like false outrage. Now does everyone have the time to check everything they post? Of course not, but if you have the time or the energy to check the source link, or read a few comments, that can help. (And I have most definitely shared misinformation without realizing it too, so I am not trying to say I am immune to this)

The only thing I will be an asshole about on purpose is not crediting artists. I know there are a million blogs that share art here without credit, so really the fault is on them, but bless the people who do a reverse image search and provide a link back to the artist.

I also see people in the Silmarillion fandom using art from artists I love to make memes without credit, and that is just awful, and even if you repost those, shame on you honestly. I think this is actually worse than using an AI photo for your meme. Like even if you are too much of a jerk to ask the artist for permission, at least credit them. The last few I have seen, the artist is even here on Tumblr, so that's why I am extra angry about it. I am very sure other fandoms do this too, so the same thing applies, but I am not really adjacent enough to notice it like I do with the Silm fandom. I do get that it sucks you don't have screenshots or whatever to make your content from, I feel you, but artists deserve credit.

(And I am a little sorry for being a huge asshole on the last one, I am really good about getting on my soapbox, but then wanting to shrink and hide for a week afterward. Just think about sources and credit where you can, ok?)
