Top 5 things Eli loves about Robby (specifically taughtpain) and top five things he loves about Kelly

ask me my top 5 / top 10 anything ( in or out of character )

❛ putting me on the spot like that ?? damn. okay. robby . . . i love how he doesn't give up, even when shit gets hard. i wish i was more like that. i love his heart - he's one of the best people i know. i love that he could kick my ass, but don't tell him i said that. it would go to his head. i love that even though he's my boyfriend we still can tell each other to fuck off and not get offended. andddd. god, i love his eyes.

and then kelly . . . i love how strong she is, and i don't just mean as a fighter. she's always coming out of the other end of a tough situation with her head held high. i love that she's the voice of reason to mine and robby's level of stupid. i love that even though she's the voice of reason, she doesn't hesitate to go to bat for her friends and family. i love how she knows exactly how to talk me or robby down and get us calm. not many people can do that. and then, i love that soft little smile she gives to just us. it kind of makes my chest feel warm whenever i see it. ❜ @taughtpain

“No one’s ever really understood the need for violence.”

@taughtdamage

ㅤㅤScattered abrasions accompanying a late presence to class should be a glaring red flag, but that doesn’t detract from the sensei’s underlying sense of satisfaction with her augmenting progress thus far, sage eyes narrowing with the remark as the man takes a beat in quiet observation before patiently responding.  “In a perfect world, the use of mere spoken words would suffice in rectifying all our problems.”  A spark of defiance is present within the depths of his gaze, the smile in which he wears fading just a touch.  “But our world is anything but.”  He speaks from experience  (  the worst kind at the extreme end of a spectrum  ),  one that lingers in the memory of sinew and bone, comprising of laboured breath through an M17 gasmask as the nigh claustrophobic humidity of a jungle is plagued by chemicals engulfing and killing everything in its wake—

ㅤㅤㅤㅤNo. Words would never be enough despite it being a favoured tactic of compulsion of his, and while Silver would be remiss to completely disregard a silent yet unwanted cry for help, he knows that there are varied ways of processing emotions dependent on the problem at hand, some individuals better suited to certain options. The written word, a splash of violent crimson against fractured artwork, fingertips dancing along ivories, calming retreats in faraway lands with long discussions, a fist through a wall - every possibility can be entertained if one has the luxury of time and resources in tandem, something the elder had taken the fullest advantage of… until returning back to the fold.  “But within these four walls, we have no expectations for an alternative approach. All we ask is for you to efficiently channel your  rage  frustration. To not let it hold you back and give it purpose. Whether that’s with a foot or a fist is entirely your choice.”

ㅤㅤThere’s a faint chuckle at his own minor joke, but it’s quick to ease back, towering stance shrouding Kelly’s presence from some of the students in the midst of practicing.  “No one’s asking for tears, but a patient ear can be helpful if it’s needed. Something on your mind?”

❖ ⊱ @taughtdamage ⊱ "I had no say in the kind of person I became" - for Kwon

ㅤㅤㅤ❝ THAT'S  BULLSHIT  AND  YOU  KNOW  IT.  YOU  ALWAYS  HAD  A  CHOICE.  ❞  There  is  no  tact  in  his  words.  Why  sugar-coat  it?  He  knows  the  kind  of  person  she  really  is  inside.  She  was  a  cobra,  after  all.  A  lost  little  snake  following  the  wrong  leader.  JaeSung's  head  tilts,  his  eyes  studying  her  as  he  approaches.  ❝ You  did  what  you  did  because  it  felt  good.  You  like  the  way  your  hand  feels  when  it  curls  into  a  fist,  that  sweet  burn  when  your  knuckles  meet  skin  and  bone.  Because  it  feels  damn  good  to  have  somewhere  to  put  the  anger,  doesn't  it?  ❞  Doesn't  he  know  it  all  too  well?  This  deep  rage  that  paints  his  blood  the  brightest  red.  She  is  a  born  fighter,  just  like  him.  Stronger  than  many  in  his  dojang.  She  should  have  a  place  there  instead,  unbound  by  the  pathetic  tenants  of  mercy  and  peace.

ㅤㅤㅤ❝ People  like  you  and  I  were  born  for  violence.  We  thrive  in  it.  It's  in  our  blood.  Yet  you  act  as  if  this  is  wrong,  when  this  is  your  strength.  ❞  His  hand  raises,  fingers  closing  into  a  fist  before  her  view,  countless  faded  scars  left  from  a  lifetime  of  training.  ❝ Who  told  you  that  you  have  to  be  ashamed  of  it?  The  Miyagi-do  losers?  This  is  who  you  are.  If  you  have  to  change  to  be  accepted  by  them,  then  you're  blind  and  weak.  You  can  bend  yourself  to  fit  any  shape  they  ask,  but  you  will  never  be  what  they  want  you  to  be,  and  they  will  never  accept  you.  The  real  you.  ❞
