The sun will always rise and dogs always be happy to see you

Bear religion probably fucking rocks. You're a fucking bear, you're the deadliest thing on earth, once a year an endless supply of salmon just flings itself up the river to gorge on and then you nap for 3 months.

The most delicious food in the world is protected by tiny demons who can defend it from everyone except you. Your natural armor is thick enough that you can just eat the damn hive while they buzz around you. God's chosen animals right there

love the idea of bears being the chosen species actually. having a near death experience and glimpsing heaven and realising it's just full of bears, no humans at all, humans not ensouled actually, humans an accidental byproduct of God's plan for bears

it is important to cling to wonder btw

many people grow up and forget what it feels like to be a child. we must remember this. we have to remember what a joy it is to play. to learn. to build connections. to grow. to experience. we must hold onto the things that awe us. we are changed by what we love

Realised strange nerd is an anagram of transgender and my life suddenly got better

Getting high on open window air

did… did you know u can do whatever you want *shaking, trembling, sweating buckets*

i think in a modern au Gale wouldn’t be allowed to have most forms of social media purely because he’d get so horribly ragebaited. teenage Gale bitches about a dumbass take to Tara one too many times and she straight up bans him from it. even in adulthood he’d only have like a GoodReads account and a thriving LinkedIn. eventually Astarion learns about why he doesn’t have social media and immediately begins sending him the most irritating takes/videos/comments he can find just to see his blood pressure skyrocket

the horrors persist but so do books, art, hot chocolate, winter nights, the moon, the sea, the stars, sunsets, literature, libraries, cats, flowers, stories, love and the wistful feeling you get when you finally return home
