They Should Invent A Grief That Doesn’t Define You In New And Strange Ways For The Rest Of Your Life

I LOVE WILL BYERS I LOVE WILL BYERS I LOVE WILL BYERS I LOVE WILL BYERS I LOVE WILL BYERS I LOVE WILL BYERS I LOVE WILL BYERS I LOVE WILL BYERS I LOVE WILL BYERS I LOVE WILL BYERS I LOVE WILL BYERS I LOVE WILL BYERS I LOVE WILL BYERS I LOVE WILL BYERS I LOVE WILL BYERS I LOVE WILL BYERS I LOVE WILL BYERS I LOVE WILL BYERS I LOVE WILL BYERS I LOVE WILL BYERS I LOVE WILL BYERS I LOVE WILL BYERS I LOVE WILL BYERS I LOVE WILL BYERS

the thing that’s the most wild to me about any demographic of men thinking they are ontologically incapable of misogyny is that not even women are ontologically incapable of misogyny. you can be extremely marginalized and still be able to leverage misogyny to your advantage if there is even one woman or girl who ranks lower than you do in the gender hierarchy.

you would think everyone would learn this having been a child and seeing how the most marginalized girl you knew was treated at school. kids with almost no legal power at all can get away with assaulting a disabled girl, a black girl, a poor girl, a gay or bi girl, a trans girl, a girl from a family with a targeted faith practice in her country, an immigrant girl, a nonverbal girl. the social ladder people climb is girls who are collectively selected as Okay To Abuse.

suguru with glasses? I REPEAT...WITH GLASSES?! suguru doesn't even know what is happening, poor soul. gojo is enjoying himself way too much in this one. sporty one showing the bookworm how it's done 😌🤲

I just wanted to start off by saying that i love your story and i think you’re a really great writer, i cant wait for the next chapter. even though i don’t like troy lol, i really liked how we can also gain insight on his situation and seeing how it relates to byler (specifically mike). i think it was an interesting creative route to take.

my question was just going to be about how often you update. do you like to update periodically or whenever you finish the chapter?

genuinely just curious, this isn’t meant to come off as rushing you or anything.

hey there! i am so glad you are liking the story. it's been one that i've been meaning to write for a while, and after sitting on it for a few months (i started it back in april) the full picture of it really came together and i was able to start writing it again.

i am glad you've liked the creative choice! that makes me happy. and yes, troy isn't necessarily likable, nor was it my intention for him to be. i wanted to keep his personality something that was recognizable from canon, but i also wanted the character i have written not be one note or everything revolving around him be black and white. i wasn't interested in having him be a one note villain. in this story we see that yes, he is will's villain, and we think he's mike's villain at first, until we are given more information. but yes, like, i didn't write him with the intention on making people love troy haha. more so, to be able to empathize with the horrible situation he deals with and that yes, the way he is, is a normal response to that. even if it makes him ulikable. the thing about people in our life who are assholes and we don't like, doesn't mean that abuse they might have suffered is any less real or valid. and that was what i was trying to explore here a little bit. (and how it relates to mike and his pain too.)

it seems I've been updating at least once a week pretty regularly. i generally am a person who posts after I've finished writing each chapter and done some edits. i have to story all outlined, so it's really just getting the words on the page at this point. but yes, i write each new chapter after the next, i don't have them pre-written. so it's kind of when i finish them. i will say i won't be updating any other stories of mine until this one is finished. it's just a very specific headspace that i don't want to get out of and try to write something else. i feel bad for those reading the pact, lol, as i've started a chapter for that and left it sitting, but it's just how it's gonna have to be for now. 😅

but yeah! i updated yesterday, and should have another update by the end of the week. :) i expect there to be 10ish more chapters and an epilogue. and I expect the story to be complete by the end of the month or shortly into november. <3

anyways, thanks so much dropping in my inbox! <333

OMG can you draw momo with maka clothes (form. Soul eater if you know the name?) I LOVE THE COLOR

I ended up mixing everything a bit 🙂‍↕️

if you don't do anything else today,

Please have a moment of silence for the people who were killed instead of freed when news of emancipation finally reached the furthest corners of the american south.

have another moment for the ledgers, catalogs, and records that were burned and the homes that were destroyed to hide the presence of very much alive and still enslaved people on dozens of plantations and homesteads across the south for decades after emancipation.

and have a third moment for those who were hunted and killed while fleeing the south to find safety across the border, overseas, in the north and to the west.

black people. light a candle, write a note to those who have passed telling them what you have achieved in spite of the racist and intolerant conditions of this world, feel the warmth of the flame under your hand, say a prayer of rememberance if you are religious, place the note under the candle, and then blow it out.

if you have children, sit them down and tell them anything you know about the life of oldest black person you've ever met. it doesn't have to be your own family. tell them what you know about what life was like for us in the days, years, decades after emancipation. if you don't know much, look it up and learn about it together.

This is Juneteenth.

white people CAN interact with this post. share it, spread it.

I’ll say this here but Bakugou loudly and proudly declaring that he’s here to step in and take care of things when Deku can’t do it all on his own and Deku watching all of this with pure awe and wonder in his eyes as the leaves pass in the wind like he is all the countless stars in the sky??? Like he is the reason for living??? Like he is a thousand beautiful arrows and Deku is the target??? Like he is a part of every corner of Deku?? Like he is the Sun that rises after the moon??? LIKE THIS??? THIS IS LOVE. and he LOVES Bakugou so much. And when the time comes when Bakugou and Deku reach eachother and cross all the words and answer all the age old questions? THEN WHAT??? WHAT HAPPENS THEN??? WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THEY EXCHANGE WARM SMILES AND GENTLE HANDS??? WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO??? JUST CURL UP AND DIE KNOWING THAT BAKUGOU WILL ALWAYS BE DEKU’S HERO??? BECAUSE OH MY GOSH BAKUGOU IS HIS WORLD AND I WILL COMBUST.

"I like byler but it not being canon wouldn't ruin the story for me"

Well good for you. I would never watch Stranger Things again. Not only because I am petty but also because I spiteful
