In Finland, It Is Illegal To Kill A Bear When It’s Hibernating. If You Ask A Hunter Why That Is, A

Sometimes in life, you find a special friend. Someone who changes your life just by being part of it. Someone who makes you laugh until you can’t stop. Someone who makes you believe that there really is good in the world. Someone who convinces you that there really is an unlocked door just waiting for you to open it. This is forever friendship. When you’re down and the world seems dark and empty, your forever friend lifts you up in spirit and makes that dark and empty world suddenly seem bright and full. Your forever friend gets you through the hard times, the sad times an dthe confused times. If you turn and walk away, your forever friend follows. If you lose your way, your forever friend guides you and cheers you on. Your forever friend hold your hand and tells you that everything is going to be okay. And if you find such a friend, you feel happy and complete because you need not worry. You have a forever friend, and forever has no end.

Random and important (not really)

Have you ever stopped and thought about the word “try”? Like on one hand trying is a way to encourage someone (”at least you tried”) and on another it can be like...”you tried...but you failed” the one word that makes one feel so high but also so low...

Stay Gold; Yoongi fanfiction

You sit inside a run down house, it’s leaking and smells of rotting wood. The world is submerged in blackness. it’s a time just before sunrise. The world is drowned in the darkness of the night, it feels almost heavy; the air is moist, it has been raining. No stars peek out on this night. As you feel the hopelessness weigh down on you; the urge to cry suddenly becomes very strong. That’s when you hear the soft fall of footsteps. A familiar face steps into the faint glow that lights up your world; your best friend Yoongi walks in. He doesn’t say anything but reaches out and gently takes your hands, you relish the feeling of his roughened hands against yours, the pads of his hands are ever so slightly roughened because of typing, playing piano and work. Though, no amount of work could make his touch ungentle. 

You both walk out the front of the door, savouring the quiet and peace as you climb a little hill. You stand for a while, enjoying the breeze. Yoongi takes out his headphones and hands you a bud, the sun peeks over and gives the earth a rosy flush. You both stay there for a long while, savouring the music, enjoying each other’s companionship and leaning into each other as you feel the warmth radiating off each other’s bodies. 

Maybe life hurts sometimes, maybe it brought you down. But here, in your little spot would be where a small part of you always belonged. Yes, you thought as you watched to sun turn gold in the sky, life can be rough but having a best frined really helps. On cue, Yoongi turns around and smiles, just a small soft and genuine smile you return the smile, your worries and stress fading away as you think. “Yes, there is no where else I’d rather be”.

Sea caption with a few quotes made by yours truly ;) 

i tried don’t come at me!

I lost my best friend 3 years ago- not lost as in dead but lost as in we only text each other on our birthdays now. Movies and books don't tell you that a friendship dying is like the sinking of a ship, you try to get higher and higher and hold onto the rails and unanswered texts, the captain tries to steer it to safety and salvage pieces of two broken hearts until you're left with memories of what once was. We were friends for a decade and knew each other's diaries by heart, I still remember her phone number and the way she took her coffee. Seeing her in streets is like breathing in a scent you forgot you knew but it immediately takes you back to a summer in '07.

Movies and books also don't tell you that friendships don't just end after one fight or incident, it's like the rusting of a bridge, the slow decay of flesh and bones and secrets. It took weeks, months- until one day I woke up and I realized I hadn't thought of her in a while. And I wrote a poem that day and I titled it 'The dying of a best friend' and I put all my love for her in a tiny box with my half of the matching pendant of a dolphin we had and stored them in a corner of my heart under the heading Grief. Where else can one hide unspent love?

It's been 3 years since I lost my best friend, lost as in I still carry our secrets in a tiny box but we only text each other on our birthdays.

BTS fantasy headcanons 4/7

Hoseok (Hobi)

Fourth member to be recruited into BTS coven

Raps with Yoongi

A literal ray of sunshine

Changes colour of EVERYTHING he can…

Has so much fun in Yoongi’s lab

Like. 

Yoongi has a laboratory that he and Joonie built.

Everyone goes into it

Hobi loves the lab bit...there he experiments endlessly with the chemistry and science

If he’s not there

He’s probably watching romantic movies with the makanes

A sprite (asian)

When caught for 7 days. They bring good luck (going over limit causes permanent BAD luck)

The BTS coven just keep him in a super big cage

It’s not even a cage, it’s like a mini mansion located inside the BTS coven mansion.

The maknaes move the TV nearer to the cage just for that week so they can have movie nights

Super interested in mundane things

Loves Harry Potter

Likes his accessories 

There’s usually an explosion per day coming out of his “Sunshine Lab”

In which Hobi usually emerges drenched in colour

Jin immediately dumps a bucket of water on him and tells him to “go dry” in the sun

Hobi is working on a “Sope” (his and Suga’s ship name) that the members can use…

Occasionally changes the water colour in the bathroom so that the members shower in green, red, purple or blue water..there are a plethora of colours of course

Sometimes he will just change the lighting in the house itself so members (especially Yoongi) wake up to rainbows dancing across the room

“JUNG HOSEOK WHAT DID YOU DO TO MY ROOM?!”

Yeah that’s probably Yoongi…

Hobi will also put some cute lil fairy lights in his lab...don’t ask me how they don’t get damaged

Also slips little chocolate bars under Yoongi’s door when he’s working late to show him someone cares

SPAMS hardcore

Fascinated with mundane technology

“Wait so only one type of phone can bend...even then it’s not able to bend except in the middle? Wicked!”

I mean, after being used to Tae’s super high tech that he installed in BTS coven, it’s no wonder they marvel at mundane tec

Sweet tooth and softie for Jin’s cakes, brownies etc

Smile is so beautiful like it legit a heart
