What Studying Literature Feels Like

With the way Tanjiro is stupidly determined to be “buddies” with Genya and Inosuke, I’m going to go out on a limb here and say he’s got a type and it has everyone a little concerned

eli literally only had sufferings almost all his life... abusive father, mother killed herself, unhealthy relationships, victim of SA, tried to kill himself, victim of tortures... he literally cant catch a break T_T

If you have written bad fanfiction clap your hands

guys did anybody read v. e. schwab's newsletter

what do you mean she's watching hannibal for victorious research purposes???

listen. i know it's not 2014 anymore and i know it's just a throwaway line and that the russo brothers didnt intend for marvel action blockbuster captain america the winter soldier to become the tragic gay love story that never was but man. having steve say "it's kind of hard to find someone with shared life experience" in a conversation about romantic relationships right before the bucky reveal is so cruel. it's not just about steve and bucky obviously having the shared experience of being "out of time," it's the fact that they've both been stripped of their humanity in opposite directions. steve is a legend, he is an american hero and a national icon before he is a human being the same way that bucky is a weapon and a killing machine before he is a human being. steve knows that anyone who falls in love with him in the 21st century fell in love with captain america first, and that's just not him. but then the one person who knew him first and knew him best and loved him (not captain america, that little guy from brooklyn) so much he died for it is alive, impossibly. and it's a miracle because he's back and it's horrific because he's back under the worst possible circumstances. but to steve, the winter soldier is worth tearing the world apart for because he's always been bucky first. they find each other and suddenly they're human again. and maybe, despite it all, being "out of time" becomes a blessing, because in this century they'd finally be allowed to love each other the way they've always wanted to. like real people do.

like. no. the captain america trilogy isn't about two queer men traumatized and alienated by war and modern life rediscovering and reclaiming their humanity through their love for each other. but. i mean. it couldve been

I love the unverified leak of a Will kissing Mike's forehead in the hospital. Like bylertruth3r, I think it would be a callback and reversal of their s2 roles, with Will at Mike's side this time. With Mike being asleep, since Will is convinced Mike doesn't like him it would be his ONLY chance to physically show affection to him. :'(

Also, what if Mike ends up in the hospital defending Will? (And what if it's from homophobic bullies)? Then I think the writing would be on the wall about Byler endgame =D And OF COURSE Will would want to kiss Mike after that!

And what if Will walks away, and we end with Mike OPENING HIS EYES TO SEE IT WAS WILL. He was awake during the kiss!
