i really thought we’d get the same answer for some reason because i felt connected to your answer. but eh this kind of makes sense

See, to me. It’s just wasting your breath which is why i often don’t bother with telling people the whole story. Because they didn’t ask for it. ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

Takes away the charm, y'know 💅🏻

Also, yes you can absolutely tag me in whatever. I try my best to reply based on my availability at the moment 😙🫶🏻

not happy with this one but i had an idea bye

tabito karasu didn't grow desperate waiting for you, when you began dating his best friend.

he didn't need to count the days until you two broke up, or beg for you to come back. karasu didn't even realise he was waiting.

the day you and otoya broke up, it didn't even take you an hour to take his initial out of your bio and replace it with a bird emoji.

a black bird.

so you unblock karasu, pinning his contact to the top of your list and typing out a message that almost seemed like muscle memory.

"guess who's single again?"

but that seemed too casual. maybe you were jumping too fast? and otoya probably told karasu about you with some made up lies, as if he ever knew that his best friend wasn't just an acquaintance of yours.

you exit your dms with him and toss your phone aside, staring at your ceiling as if it would give you an answer.

send the text, or don't send the text. send the text, or don't send the text. send the text, or don't—

ah, fuck it.

you grab your phone again, from wherever the hell you threw it, dusting it off and unlocking it to send that damn message.

but, to your surprise, the lock screen had a notification on it. your heart nearly skips a beat; no, don't get too excited. the way your fingers pressed the notification immediately, though, really betrayed your earlier thought.

a message. from a certain somebody.

"saw ya typin'. bored of him already?" reads the first message. followed by a close second, one that has you grinning to yourself.

"welcome back, darlin'."

thanks for tagging me, @aelyosos!! 🩵

Do you gender trans people correctly even when they're being absolutely terrible people? Do you refuse to use the r-slur against someone who suicide baited you but is neurodivergent? Do you refuse to snark at a mentally ill person who is being genuinely unpleasant, "go take your meds!"

Do you allow members of marginalized groups to be terrible people without judging their entire demographic for it? One of the most invisible yet vital forms of privilege is the right to be terrible people as an individual rather than as a group. Do you acknowledge that there are bad people in every group, that it doesn't make their group less worth fighting for? Or do you shake your head if you happen to get mistreated by some who belong to a group and insist the entire group is awful and not worth your allyship?
