i looooove characters who are sacrificial lamb coded. characters who have never lived for themselves. characters born to be a tool, a weapon, a sacrifice, all of the above. a character raised by the heroes to save the world, at any expense, even their own health, even their own life. a character raised by the villains to end the world, at any expense, even their own health, even their own life. characters who are denied personhood so they can be used as tools instead. characters who never even had a chance to be people because they were shaped into something else from the moment they were born. characters who were born to die.

The deep sea is a haunted house: a place in which things that ought not to exist move about in the darkness.

The most heartbreaking, bitter sweet truth is - it will always be you. I will continue to love you from afar, quietly. I will cheer you on, and hope that you find everything you've ever wanted, even if I'm not part of it. We will never speak again, and my name will never pass through your mind, and I will learn to be okay with that. As long as you're happy. As long as you find everything you have ever wanted. I will take all my pain, swallow it down, and nestle it in my rib cage, hidden from the world. I will not burden anyone else with this ache. It is mine to carry, for all of my days. And that is okay.
dear you - love, (ds)
