Snumple Update
This is certainly not the news I wanted to bring to anyone. I just received word that Xenia’s body was found. I don’t have any other details, save that it wasn’t a crime. Given everything, I believe suicide is most likely.
This is obviously devastating to her family. Hell, it’s pretty fucking upsetting to us. I don’t have any clever words. I’ve been expecting this result since I first heard from her brother, though obviously you hold out some small measure of hope until hope runs out.
This is a tremendous loss for us. What do you say to ease that? I wouldn’t even know where to begin. I’d ask only that we all treat each other with kindness and understanding. Everyone will have to grieve and process in their own way, Some may want to talk. Some may never want to say a word. Anger, sadness, and everything in between is valid.
If you’re feeling particularly struck by this, please seek out help. We don’t need to lose anyone else. And love each other. There can never be too much of that in the world.
I will miss you, Snumple. I will miss you so much.
Pokemon: The Force Awakens 6/?
If you know of Team Rocket Executive Kylo’s past, it’s in your best interest to never speak of it. Early in his career, his team included a Pangoro. A cocky Grunt pointed out how similar it was to his father’s Ursaring. There are two rumors for what happened next– that he killed it, and that he didn’t have the guts to kill it and let it go. Believers of the latter had best not speak too loudly. More than one Grunt has had their Pokemon killed when Kylo overheard.
(If anyone has realized that Kylo’s mother, the Champion, also carries a Gyrados, they’ve kept it to themselves.)
Kylo is determined to master Mega Evolution. Though he’s acquired only one Mega Stone so far and conventional rules allow only one Mega Evolution per battle, he plans to have a whole team of Mega Pokemon. Team Rocket makes their own rules, and if Kylo can be strong enough to handle six Mega Evolutions, he deserves to use them. He will be the world’s most powerful trainer. He will.
I feel the call to the light
and I’m following it
So after this post and Doc’s comment, the image of Haruka’s post-TFA nightmare stuck in my head. HAD TO DRAW IT DESPITE NOT BEING ABLE TO DO IT JUSTICE.
So awhile back, someone (I think it was rosepetalrevolution) brought up a musical talisman arc/adaptation of 110.
And even ignoring the perfect hilarity of Eudial trying to sing a song into Haruka and Michiru’s answering machine, I’ve been thinking a lot about how amazing it would be.
Just imagine. Michiru breaks free in the cathedral and sings about protecting Haruka. Maybe a line or two about how she brought her into this mess but she won’t let it be the end. She keeps getting cut off by Eudial’s missiles, represented by the stage going dark and flashing red lights while the violins play more intensely.
Then the final line, “Haruka, I won’t let you die!”
And Eudial shoots, the entire stage goes black and silent.
The lights fade back in. Haruka stares at the talisman.
The pause is a few beats too long; it seems like the song is over. But then, against the silence, Haruka sings, “That’s not fair, Michiru. Going into your own world like that.
But I’ll follow you.”
She wrestles the gun from Eudial and knocks her out in the fight. Usagi runs in just in time to hear the second shot, but all that’s left on the stage now are the two talismans.
I’M ALWAYS A SLUT FOR THESE AND I’M SICK TODAY SO ENJOY ME ASKING FOR LIKE FIVE OF THEM. firstly, “things you said too quietly”
“Haruka.”
It’s like you can’t find the breath for more words. That’s kind of funny in a way that you wouldn’t find funny at all if I could point it out. And the look on you face isn’t funny. I can’t reach out to comfort you. But someone who wasn’t us would smile at the irony of you being unable to breathe while I’m here with my chest ripped open. I wish I could make you smile again, Michi, just one more time. I can’t find the way to make words either. It’s like I’m drowning; I feel water in my mouth, and though I know I’m not moving, something is dragging me down.
“Please no.”
I almost don’t hear you. I think the water’s in my ears, starting up into my eyes. Everything is muffled. I want to say something to you, but if I open my mouth now I’m sure I’ll go under. I always joked about drowning in you. Now that’s another thing we can’t laugh at.
You grab my hand. Your skin is warm and dry, like we’re not in water at all. I can feel your pulse at your wrist. It’s nice, Michi, but it’s too fast. It makes me feel like I should be scared. Maybe I should be, but I can’t focus on anything but you. But even you’re starting to blur.
You’re very close now. I feel you more than I see you. Your lips on my forehead, hair all around me. Your breath is warm, even underwater. Maybe you really are a mermaid.
“Haruka…” you whisper. I can’t hear the rest of what you say. Speak louder, Michi. The water is taking your words. Are you swimming me up to the surface, or is this goodbye?
