not that you didn’t deserve it

Two eridians and their wet dog

bobby, barely holding it together himself, sees hen about to burst into tears and immediately takes her under his arm, shoving aside his terror and grief to comfort her. eddie beelines to a shell-shocked chim, needing to comfort, needing camaraderie. but his jaw is clenched, his chin wobbling violently, he's shaking his head desperately to keep the roaring waves of terror at bay. so bobby grabs him too, pulling him close, allowing eddie to lean on him too. it doesn't matter that bobby feels like he's about to shatter right there, it doesn't matter that it feels like his heart is being dragged away from him on a hospital stretcher, what matters is that his team is falling apart and he has to keep them together.

Chris really hates to disturb his peace, but he's kind of boiling inside. "Abuela doesn't think you can be gay at my age." He wants Dad to tell him that he misunderstood, that Abuela said something wrong, but he knows. He gets it, the looks and the words and the saying without saying, and it hurts. It hurts that someone he loves so dearly can think these things about other people he loves. "I..." Dad swallows and clears his throat. His hand is tight around the steering wheel, but the hold on Christopher's arm is light enough to feel how his hands are shaking. "I didn't know this was something you were going through right now." "Not me, Dad. You." Or sometimes growing up means you start to see the people you love in a different light.

for a male player, no. the grandmas are constantly whispering about you

it’s just simply a lyrical and emotional masterpiece and I’ve been extremely normal about it for more than a year now.

this is so important.
