and the silver lining seems so dim when it hurts

Summary:

David stared at the letter in his hand, reading it through once again, but there it stood, just a short few sentences. Nothing changed no matter how many times he’d read it, and he found himself feeling… Numb.

Based on a tumblr prompt: "If you don't hug me right now I think I might fall apart."

Info:  1.6k | General | Established Relationship; it’s sad guys

Notes: David gets some sad news and needs to be comforted by Matteo. I made myself sad reading it but also it’s so nice that David has someone who can help him and who he can share this with.

Sneak Peak:

David sat on Matteo’s bed, on the same spot where he had finally opened the letter that had arrived the day before. He had postponed opening it on purpose: he had gathered up his things and rushed over to Matteo’s to spend the evening and night there, pointedly trying to think of anything and everything that wasn’t the letter burning in his pocket. Matteo had been quick enough to call him out on it, and David had promised to deal with it first thing in the morning. It hadn’t been as easy as it sounded, his nerves proving to be too much to actually open the goddamn thing right after he opened his eyes after a restless night, and he had ended up psyching himself up all morning. He had told himself over and over again, that whatever it was that the letter brought was something he could handle.

An obvious one, SKAM 😊

Yay!  My origin story!! Thank you! 💜

1. The first character I fell in love with: Isak.  It was a weird one - I started with s3 and after seeing all these gifs of ‘soft, fluffy’ Isak I was, I’ll admit, very confused about who this sarcastic little ‘asshole’ Isak was.  But it intrigued me and it really wasn’t long before I fell for him.

 2. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now: Probably Chris B.  I don’t usually like the ‘funny’ sidekick who isn’t tiny, and so I was quite ‘meh’ at first but gosh if I don’t love her so much now.

3. The character everyone else loves that I don’t: Noora.  It’s not her fault but I just can’t stand what happened to her character and her development because of the William thing, and the way her story overtook s4, and I just can’t separate it from how I feel about her.  

4. The character I love that everyone else hates: I don’t think there is one?  

 5. The character I used to love but don’t any longer: Again, I don’t think I have one.

 6. The character I would totally smooch: Wow, this is so repetitive haha.  I’m waaaay too old for these characters so I 100% wouldn’t smooch any of them.  Now if I was pretending I was their age, then probably Sonja or Eva.

 7. The character I’d want to be like: Even.  He’s just so lovely, such a wonderful ball of light and positive energy and the fact that it comes from such a difficult place gives it so much more.  I’d love to be the person who can be that resilient after difficulties.

 8. The character I’d slap: Vilde.  Again, this isn’t her fault but wow her development in s4 was so bad, and I really disliked where she went and how she regressed.  I’d just really really love to slap some sense into her.

 9. A pairing that I love: Evak.  Of course 💜💜

 10. A pairing that I despise: Noorhelm.  Exactly the type of relationship I dislike the most and in a series like this it stands out even more.

Hi! Say, do you have any favourite words or some great quotes to share? I also want to know when was the last time you laughed so much it felt like it'll never stop? 😊

Hi! 💕 Ah, thank you for asking! I love this Thirsty Thursday idea. Have some fave words: 

“Things need not have happened to be true. Tales and dreams are the shadow-truths that will endure when mere facts are dust and ashes, and forgot.”

Neil Gaiman, The Sandman, Vol. 3: Dream Country(via ghostowlattic)

This is my favourite quote. Or at least one of my top ten (I mean, there are lots of brilliant quotes out there). Anyway, this has been a fave for ages, and I think it was the first quote I posted here on Tumblr. 

💕

The last time I laughed so much it felt like it would never stop? Wow. That doesn’t happen a lot. But I did laugh a lot this Christmas, and I did totally get the giggles on New Year’s Eve. To be honest, I can’t recall what it was about. It was the most relaxed New Year’s Eve we’ve ever had, though, I can tell you that.

I just love how you described our lovely bad boy David making it so he's the most available option for Matteo to collapse on any time. I feel like as much as he likes to ensure it's him Matteo chooses to latch himself onto, Matteo also gravitates towards him most of the time because David wrapping a hand around him, pulling him half on his lap, and whispering in his ear makes Matteo feel really secure and cared for at all times 💛

matteo will for sure crash into david if he sees him in the room! the only time he doesn’t if he’s far away and in the middle of the conversation that matteo doesn’t want to interrupt. then he’ll wait until david comes over to say hi and latch onto him, and david will wrap an arm around him for their own private hellos. but yeah, matteo secretly loves all of it

hey a quick question will we ever recover from what happened today?? do we even want to recover???? bad buddy really came through like a goddamn sledge hammer

ALJDKAKDKSKDKS i don’t think we’ll ever recover, my friend. there’s just NO WAY i’ll forget this day, this feeling, this episode.

and i don’t want to! i want that to be the standard! i want gmm to fucking see the impact of real good acting and representation, the magnitude of its power.

i want to witness a better world, i want to be living proof that it’s possible. and this, today, feels like possibility

and isn’t that just amazing when art gives us hope? even in such hopeless times???

so YES, bad buddy came to change the game and i hope it really does!!! ❤️💙

[tanrak]

are we ready for bad buddy tomorrow??? like, idk if I'm ready but i also want the new episode right this second, you know?

alskaksksks i’m not ready as in “mentally and emotionally prepared for what’s to come” but absolutely ready as in “i’ve waited long enough”

so YES, i understand you. we NEED bb first, deal with the consequences later 🤣🤣🤣

it’s fine tho! we can do this! we’ll survive!! 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼

Druck memories 4 and 9 😊

💜 Thank you for sending some asks!

4. Which clip have you rewatched most?  This is so hard to work out haha.  First because I don’t tend to watch in clips anymore and second because I tend to rewatch all of it all the time (apart from s2 because I refuse to watch it at all). I’ve definitely seen episodes 1-5 of s3 more than any others because I used to do full rewatches of the season to date while it was still airing.  So it’ll be one of those clips, I just don’t know for sure which one.

9. Which clip made you very emotional?  Tooo many to count.  But let’s do a ‘best of’ haha: bad emotional - ‘Outing’ and the final clip of s3 episode 5 (’I’m not into you’ just really really upset me in a bad way).  Cathartic emotional - the ending of s3, the Abiball clip.  Warm fuzzy emotional - David’s secret and the Sunday morning of s3 episode 10.  This is all very s3-centric, I know, but while I really enjoyed s1 and 4 and Hanna is one of the lights of my life, I just didn’t get emotional in the same way.  The connection isn’t the same to those seasons.
