HER NAME IN THE SKY.

Hannah wants to sit up off her towel and look across her friend's lined-up bodies, frozen in time beneath the sky, and she wants to pull Baker out of their midst, out of time, and walk with her along the shoreline, following the infinite ocean, nothing moving on the whole green earth except for the two of them and the water and the sky.”

anybody else a fan of these rlly niche oneshot fics that r simultaneously a little moody and angsty while being exceptionally tender and sexy. they’re always like 20k words and absolutely nothing happens plot wise except feelings stuff. and they always have a title (like this)

someone finally put it into words. yeah. being socially alienated is upsetting but it is an entirely unique feeling to look that alienation and say “actually, no. i’m the one rejecting you. i have my own space full of the other people you alienated and it’s even better than what you have going on.”

the sense of belonging you can gain from a group of socially alienated people coming together feels so much like a rebirth that it may as well be one.

I miss screaming and fighting And kissing in the rain It’s 2 a.m. and I’m cursing your name I’m so in love that I acted insane And that’s the way I loved you
