#make it sad

[evyltalks]

"As I stand on the precipice of my destiny, I cannot help but mourn the lost potential of a different life, a life where love and happiness were an option. This tear is the last vestige of my humanity, a silent lament for the boy I once was and the man I will never become. It is a testament to the tragedy of my existence, a final goodbye to the dreams that will never be realized.

Standing here, on the brink of darkness, I reflect on the cruelty of fate. The family I was born into, the burdens I inherited and bore every day, the path I was coerced into walking, all conspired to bring me to this moment. I am haunted by the faces of those I love, their unfulfilled hopes and broken dreams, echoing the hollow promises of a future stolen by shadows. I wonder if, somewhere in another life, I might have found redemption, might have forged a different path away from this abyss.

But now, as the darkness gains ground, I realize there is no turning back. I am unable to move. The choices made in fear and desperation have sealed my fate, and all that remains is this single tear, a symbol of everything I have lost and everything I will never become. This is my requiem, my last act of rebellion against the powers that have condemned me, my silent cry against the impending doom.”

(This is a redraw of something I did more than a year ago. I’ve been wanting to redo it for a long time since I loved the concept, but I thought I could revisit it while leaving more to the viewer’s interpretation. So, I hope you like it !!)

[vaseflowerstt]

if they’re gonna kill Henry that shit better be as devastating as possible if his death is cheery and celebratory I’m turning my tv off then and there give me angst give me sadness if you’re gonna kill my favorite character. I want him to die by the hands of either El or Patty and I want him to say the most depressing shit before he dies. “I’m glad it’s you” (arcane reference 💔) just give me SOMETHING (gonna regret this in the foreseeable future)

"Isn't it lovely, all alone? Heart made of glass, my mind of stone Tear me to pieces, skin to bone Hello, welcome home..."

John watched as you hovered over a strange flower on the planet surface, visor inches from the vibrant petals as you examined it closely.

"What is it?" he knelt beside you, his enormous frame still looming over yours.

"Proles Ardor, first discovered by Angela Griggs in 2162," you ran a gloved hand along one of the velvety leaves and smiled, "Data suggests that the leaves produce a strong neurotoxin that can cause death in seconds when the plant feels threatened."

"Charming," John felt the corners of his mouth pull into a smile as he watched your fingers run along the scarlet petals.

"It's amazing that it can thrive, even on this planet," you produced a glass vial from your rucksack and tweezed off a small conical flower, placing it carefully inside the tube before capping it, "Diamonds in the rough."

"Just like you," the Spartan rose from his crouch and you followed suit, placing the vial into your bag with a chuckle.

"Like me?"

A beautiful flower next to a sharp, deadly weed.

---

"John?" Cortana's voice echoed in the Spartan's earpiece and he shook his head to clear it.

"Are you alright? Your vitals spiked for a moment."

"I'm fine," John glanced down at the photo he clutched in his armored hand-

"Just a memory."

Also, here’s what I want from Halbrand:

I want him to just be one of the nine riders.

Not the Witch-King. 

Maybe he’s the one who flew on the Fell Beast over the marshes. Maybe he’s the one who almost found the Hobbits on the road. Maybe he’s the one who has a torch thrown into his face by Aragorn. He’s just...one of them.

“You would choose me? Over your brothers, over your home, you would choose me?”

Nesta was trying and failing to put up her mask, the one that protected her from the world when all else failed, but even without it Rhaenys would have understood the meaning behind her words.

Over a year in Illyria, and she still didn’t think she was worth loving. That she was worth fighting for, worth dying for. She’d come so far, done so much good for others, had bled for strangers without thinking twice about it. And she still didn’t believe she would ever be someone’s first choice. It went unsaid,

’You would choose someone who’s own family wouldn’t choose them?"

Somehow, Rhaenys heart still managed to hurt for her, and she silently prayed to the Mountain Gods and the Mother for more time. A year, a week, an hour. She would take anything and spend it all making sure the fae cradling her broken body never doubted herself like this ever again.

“I would choose the woman who was willing to face ten Illyrian soldiers alone to protect a group of children no one else cared for. I would choose the woman who, before she hands me a drink, tastes it to make sure I would like it.”

She took in a shaky breath and reached up her hand to press tenderly against Nesta’s cheek. Blood smeared across pale, flawless skin, but there wasn’t a thing in all of Prythian that could make her beauty any less.

“I would choose the woman who snorts when she laughs and buries her nose so deep into a book sometimes, she doesn’t move from her spot on the armchair for hours. I would choose the woman who fights for another war she never had to step foot into because it was the right thing to do.”

Rhaenys’ thoughts were sluggish in a way she hadn’t felt in a long time, tongue tripping over itself in her haste to speak everything she wanted to get out. She was fairly positive that she was talking nonsense at this point, but it didn’t matter. If she was going to die, she would die with love on her lips and a certain female in mind. It was a better death than her first one.

“I would choose you, Nesta Archeron, because you are my home.”

If feel like Oda is one day going to just get so angry with everyone begging for Zoro's backstory that's he's just going to drop the most heartbreaking, gut-wrenching Arc for our swordsman. One that makes Sanji's childhood seem like a mildly traumatic event, one that has all the maxed out ratings on the How Fucked Up Was Your Childhood ™

Everyone will read/watch it and will be left shell shocked.

And Oda will stand above us all, like God after sending down the floods, and will say-

"You all begged for this,"
