Whether in new tv shows or books of old
From the Ballad of Bo and Ro
To the scar that adorns Prince Zuko
Or the endeavors of messrs Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot and Prongs
And the sweet mockingjay as it sings its fateful songs.
There’s a story behind Davy Jones and his cephalopod physique,
As well as one behind Melinda May and her fighting technique.
There’s a story behind the pistol shot in the sky, and the shot thrown away,
And one of no requiems with nothing to say
One behind the metal staples inside Dabi’s face
One from Nik Malikov and Hannah Donnelly, locked in an embrace.
There’s a story behind every katana that slices through demon flesh
And one from Leo Valdez, a new life, starting fresh.
There’s a story in the sewers, with a shadow that lives inside
And another as the twinless Traveler wakes up in Teyvat, eyes wide.
A pink haired Telepath, who just wants to draw
An Inator-loving, divorced pharmacist who’s not afraid to break a law
Navier Trovi, contently stroking her Queen
Hawkmoth in his room of butterflies, unseen.
Every single person, real or not
Lives a life, does what their taught
They all share their sorrows, their joys, their dreams.
Because in a small way, they think and feel, like you and me.
In all entirely I’m not sure why I wrote this (I was bored)
But I just did it, started to remininse (I apologize if this shows up on your dashboard)
Anyways if you know like 5 references in this random poem then you’re already a friend of mine
And if you can, reblog this, if you have the time ;)
