Something nobody prepares you for is that the better you get at writing the harder it becomes. beginners write freely because they don't know enough to know what's wrong. then you learn. and suddenly you can see every single flaw in real time as you're making it and you have to write anyway while your own brain is in the corner going "that's a weak verb. that transition is lazy. you've used that word three times." getting good at this is mostly just getting better at ignoring yourself.

I really am just living for the hope of it all

studying history is like. here's to another beautiful day of not being pregnant and of having no obligation to ever be. thank you women who fight for abortion and contraception and independance from men for another beautiful day of not being pregnant and of having no obligation to ever be

ok im back on my “why would you make raoul abusive to justify shipping christine with other characters” bullshit because like. you dont need to. christine can be unhappy in a relationship even if the other person is great and really loves her. like. she can feel guilty that she doesnt reciprocate this intense love for a man who tried to save her life but ended up almost killed and so she probably feels like she owes him for putting him in danger. he can be nice and considerate and gentle and she can still resent him/not feel the same/be hung up on another character. she can lay in his arms at night telling herself she loves him but knowing that she’s lying to herself. I think that’s infinitely more compelling than “oh he’s a rich asshole and can’t make her cum”
