catra trying to relate to glimmer by saying “haha adora and i would ALSO have sleepovers in the horde :)” but catra’s self definition of sleepover was clearly far off because while glimmer meant that she adora and bow would occasionally grab their sleeping bags and camp out in the same room catra’s sleepovers in the horde meant sleeping on the same bed with adora.... every night

road trips are like "which hard truths am I gonna come to terms with while staring out this window"

no one tells you how much of life takes practice. not just writing, painting, running, singing, etc, but practicing how to make friends. how to make the right ones. getting practiced at how to be a good friend, a good sibling, a good person. practice identifying when people haven’t earned that. learning to recognize your right to rage and, eventually, how to offer mercy. so much of life is muscle memory, and i’ve begun to realize there are so many more parts of ourselves to flex and stretch and strengthen than those we’re taught in anatomy lessons
