Sucks to get invested in a piece of media, when the only person you know who likes it is someone you haven't talked to in years.

Bitch I know we fell out over something, but can I tell you my ideas and then we can go back to ignoring each other???

Missing places you’ve never been (and can never go to)

———

Sometimes when I’m reading,

I’ll come up for air from the pages,

And I’ll take in my bedroom,

Quiet, the window open,

The detritus of my life scattered hither and thither,

And I’ll sit for a moment,

Missing the world lying on the paper in front of me,

The colors, so bright and beautiful in my mind,

Lush greens and brick reds,

The shining blue jewel of a tropical sea,

Have faded to the eggshell pale light of my window.

I miss the city in the pages like a blitz child misses London,

It’s an aching hole in my chest,

Cramping and seizing on space that doesn’t exist,

I’m wishing for more time with people that aren’t real,

Places I can never go,

Save for following the black threaded pathway paved on a page.

Resisting the urge to drunk text my best friend's dad is not something I expected to do in my life but here I am, not wanting to wake him up over our mutual special interest.

That feel when you’re reading and...

At first you feel really bad for a character because yeah, maybe they were a bit of a jerk before, but now they’re actually dealing with the consequences of their actions and actually being humble!

But then they turn around and go right back to being arrogant so you don’t feel sorry for them at all.
