it fits so perfectly im-
Clang. The Soldier drew the sword behind his head. Clash. The screams of battle faded into white noise. Slash. His opponent drops to his knees before him. Shaking hands drop an oranate sword, pressing against the bleeding open wound. With a dull thud, the unmoving corpse falls forward. Never to move, never to breathe, never to live again. The Soldier huffs a pant. The sounds come rushing back. Yells and grunts and battlecries - echoed by the clang of metal against metal against wood. The back of his wrist wipes his sweaty forehead. His armour is slicked with blood and dusted with dirt. Those same elements coated the blade of his sword. He hears more than sees his next opponent. He feels more than hears it coming towards him. A vibration on the ground, beneath his feet, shaking him. Drawing him to the present. He cussed himself, silently. Turned around and pointed his sword- A lithe shadow lands on him from the back of a speeding horse. Sends the both of them crashing to the ground. Panic seizes him. He struggles from underneath the assailant. He struggles to lift his sword. He grunts as he pushes himself free. Staggers to his feet and narrows his eyes. The lithe figure wears the garbs of an assassin. The glint of a hidden dagger confirms this. As do the stealthy way they move. The Soldier groans inwardly. Out of all people, assassins were the hardest to fight. Like grabbing carp with your bare hands. He lifts his sword up again. Angles the tip to point beneath The Assassin’s chin. To the life-vein he can just barely see. The sounds disappear. Not fade into white-noise, though. It disappears. Everything disappears. Just him. The Assassin. His sword. Beneath the visor of his helmet, the Soldier grins. “Make your move.” The Assassin darts forward. For if a shadow is the absence of light, then how quickly would a shadow move? Very fast, The Soldier finds. He just barely manages to lift his sword up. Block the fatal blow. Force the shadow to retreat. The Assassin does, briefly. Unperturbed, they come back. Shoves a palm towards his chest - a move that The Soldier just barely escapes. The Soldier staggers back a few steps. Places a hand to where he was nearly stabbed. Stares at the pacing, agitated shadow. Still, beneath his visor, his grin grows larger. Finally, finally, he’s found his match. This time, The Soldier moves first.

it’s really ironic for Cara Dune’s actress to be the epitome of what Cara Dune hates.
Cara Dune would beat the shit out of G*na C*r*no.
In this essay I thank you for coming to my ted talk
So remember The Mandalorian, my new hyperfixation? Remember that fanfiction? Yeah I gave it a lil’ update. No, I don’t plan on updating more - I didn’t even plan on updating this. No, I might not hold true to my word and might give it another update. I don’t know, I’m not in charge of the words.
Oh, also something I didn’t mention in the fanfiction itself, but all (both) chapters are named after songs I’d listened to earlier. Might’ve been obvious, I don’t know. The first chapter (and the name of the fic, now) came from this (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f2fCcggNkTs&ab_channel=KeatonHensonVEVO) And the second chapter came from this (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ar1grAdGkec&ab_channel=OhWonder-Topic) both are very emotional bangers, both songs I kept playing on loop while I wrote their chapters.
ok let's see what's been posted since I last watched youtu-
BARBIE?? SAID BLM?? WHAT HELL YEAH WHAT
When you let yourself go free in your narrative it gets to be really, really fun.
this is the same work as the ‘I didn’t want to be a wanted fugitive’ by the way. It’s the same. I am Enjoying Myself
fic writers for the mandalorian ! this vid ended up being pretty interesting analytically wrt din’s fighting style and what benefits him — i don’t agree w everything stated in it just due to differing opinions / analysis and ofc some things have changed because this vid was posted before s2, but regardless it’s still pretty useful for understanding his weapons (most helpful bit imo) + the way he fights
(+ anything u might disagree w or that has been removed from or changed in canon by the end of s2 is addressed and analyzed by many ppl in the comments! so thats useful too)
if anyone wanted to ask me why I like writing, I’d say that the people in my head need to be free. Because they do. Once I die, I’ll bring all the thoughts I ever had with me and none of you will know - none of you will be able to know what thoughts I had when I was alive. And I have worlds and communities and cultures inside my head and I don’t want to bring them down with me, I don’t want to be the only person who ever walked the streets or talked to the people or danced the cultures. The worlds I make may be filled with people - but they’re all me, and the streets are lonely. I guess I’d mostly say it’s because I want to share. I want to share the worlds, the lands, the realms I make. I want to share the stories I’ve told to myself so many times. I want to put my mark - however small - so that when I do inevitably die, I won’t bring this world I made down with me. I don’t want to walk the streets alone anymore.
please stay safe
Hi, I know you’re a big account so if you don’t mind, can you boost this? Somebody said this has been confirmed and I want people to be aware and stay safe.
* I’m sending this to some of the big accounts that I know in the POC Bnha community, so sorry if this continues to pop up for some people*
yeaa I heard about this too and ik some people might think this is a fear tactic, and it might be, but even my school is telling us to stock up and try not to go outside for a bit. so no matter what happens tomorrow, y’all stay safe out there. please
No one should scroll past this
If they can’t see that making business with terfs is a bad idea, then we’ll make them see.
If they can’t see that giving terfs a platform is a bad idea, then we’ll make them see.
If they can’t see that we do not want anything to do with giving profits to a terf, then we will make them see.
Hey, so they’re making a Netflix Harry Potter.
With that in mind, we’re all gonna remember that JKR is a terf who has literally been cited by legislators engaged in legislation that actively harms trans people, and we’re not gonna give her any more money.
That means not streaming the new show on Netflix, because regardless of how much influence she has on the production, she gets paid for it.
We’re gonna make the show flop. We’re gonna show Warner Brothers that we don’t forget (of course, how would we forget, it isn’t as if she’s stopped), and that their business association with terfs is no longer profitable.
It is NOT like Lovecraft, because Lovecraft is very dead and his works are in the public domain. By consuming Lovecraft media, you are not giving any money to old Howard.
