mini-playlist: le déluge → the song of achilles // madeline miller  

there would be a storm tonight. the rain would be soaking, filling up the earth till she burst her seams. it would gush down from the mountaintops, gathering strength to sweep away what stood in its path: animals and houses and men.

he is such a flood, i thought.

something i was thinking about

If someone were to ask me what I could binge hours upon hours of, clearly, I’d say Hunter X Hunter. It could be either the 2011, 1999, or even the manga, but I can say that I most definitely can watch hours worth of people analyzing the characters and the impact their backgrounds and walks of life play on their emotional, physical, and mental states.

Through those videos, I can understand the characters better and understand how they got there, with those specific motives and drives for what they do on a more in-depth level.

Another thing that I get from the videos is understanding not only the true impacts certain ways of life, habits, trauma, and issues have on the psyche of the characters and those around them, but it also helps me to understand the show waaaaaayyyy better.

Little side note, I notice that it also seeps into my life. The impact this show had on me didn’t entirely occur to me until I binged people analyzing the world and characters. I, for once, truly learned something that has stuck with me for longer than most other things have.

hi! do you have any hurt/comfort fics where gon is the one being comforted?

All righty, this took a hot minute because Killua is infamous for being the comforted party in hxh hurt/comfort fics XD but I tracked down a handful that focus on Gon’s inner struggles!

Please mind the tags, since hurt/comfort fics tend to have darker/more triggering themes. <3

worse sights than this by Quintessence ( T | 2,049 | 1/1 )

Be strong, saith my heart; I am a soldier; / I have seen worse sights than this.

“It had to be fair, you know? I knew that from the moment I saw Kite’s body, torn apart and sewn back together over and over again. I had to do some sort of penance for that. I had to make up for what I’d done. I had to. I needed pain. A lot of it. Maybe enough…”

Gon takes a deep breath.

“Maybe enough that I wouldn’t make it out in one piece.”

In which things long unspoken finally come to light.

whatever a moon has always meant by Quintessence ( T | 2,871 | 1/1 )

“That’s what I’m trying to tell you,” Killua says, firm but gentle.  “You’re not slowing down.  If you let yourself rest properly, you’ll actually be more efficient.  I think you should take the rest of the day off, get as much sleep as you want tonight, and pick things back up tomorrow.”

All at once, tears gather in Gon’s eyes, and he begins to tremble, so violently that Killua can see it from across the kitchen.

“What right do I have to that?” Gon all but shouts, his voice breaking.  “People are being hurt and I’m one of the few people who can actually do something about it, so what right do I have to relax?  The people who are in trouble aren’t getting to relax!  Not even for a moment!  Why should I get that luxury?”

In which Gon tries to carry the weight of the world on his shoulders, and stumbles under the load.

these things don't just fade away by burbs ( T | 5,246 | 1/1 )

Gon, if possible, becomes more reckless.

the one that you want by poeticlump ( T | 3,110 | 1/1 )

“I-I just . . .”

“You just what, Gon.” His soft white hair was disheveled, sneakers coated in fresh city grime, and he looked like he wanted to scream—in a way that only Gon could recognize. His stance was composed, cold, calculated; with Killua it was all in his eyes.

But for one of the record first times in his life, Gon had no words. For the first time, he didn’t want to be honest. He didn’t want to be straightforward. He was sick of telling everyone in the world exactly what he felt and wanted. Some things, some things were sacred. Some things Killua wouldn’t understand.

He wouldn’t understand that Gon wanted him to himself.

It’s Alright by orphan_account ( T | 2,527 | 1/1 )

Gon keeps smiling, assuring Killua that he's alright despite the evidence contrary. Killua has to find a way to help him before it's too late.

less than half myself by lxonardo ( T | 6,020 | 1/1 )

"You know you don’t have to figure this out alone, right? We can do it together, so pl—”

“But I really don’t know. I don’t want to burden you—” Gon trembled, grabbing the slide door to keep himself steady. He shut his eyes tightly, suddenly his eyes growing heavy with tears building up. “I don’t know why I’m feeling like this all of a sudden.”

Within a split second, Killua rushed to his side, gentle arms embracing him in a hug. Gon was shaking, and he circled his arms back around his waist, resting his temple on his shoulder. His gut was telling him to get away and you’ll be hurt again, and it was growing louder. But Gon chose to ignore it, because he was safe and Killua wouldn’t do anything to hurt him. Killua was, if anything, a safe haven to him; it made no sense that he would subconsciously fear him, especially when he’s been with him for so long.

I think that one of my favorite things about Hunter X Hunter is the way Togashi makes us think that Gon would’ve never been able to beat the chimera ants.

I’m pretty sure that older Gon(the one who killed Pitou) is actually stronger or just as strong as the chimera ants themselves.

The reasoning behind why I think this is just that Gon was young, and he still kept his training from that age, not the older versions training/skills, and since we didn’t get to see more of adult Gon using the abilities/skills he learned, I think that Gon might’ve actually been able to fight the ants from the beginning if it were to happen years later.

I have a orange cat plushie that's named Kitty Soft Paws(after Kitty from the old Puss in Boots movie ofc) tho i just call her Kitty.

I've had her for years, and at first she was all brand new but now, her legs have no stuffing, the beanie toe pads have fallen out, her fur is completely matted, her scent pack is on its final stretch of smell after all these years, but shes still Kitty👍 (despite the fact shes literally falling apart, shes still the stuffed animal i love and will continue to cuddle with :DD)
