* please [hold on], captain.

i fucking LOVE imagining dark as like an actual horror entity and what entails with that

i love the hot suave guy we have rn but GODD ive got so many ideas like you never truly see his face, you only ever see it in brief reflections- he’s unable to be photographed or recorded because any camera distorts him

his aura suffocates a room and he LITERALLY GREYS OUT THE COLOR AROUND HIM

not to mention how he’s literally designed to make you uncomfortable— with the constant ringing and the shifting colors

i think he’d also make the room either uncomfortably hot or cold depending on whos piloting the body— and what about extremes when he loses his temper— scorching footprints into the floor or giving people frostbite if he grabs them while angry?

And mirrors, his best friend and worst enemy— they’re the only thing you can see his face in (other than puddles and other reflective surfaces) but every time he gazes directly at himself they shatter

smoke pours out of his mouth when he commands and his personality is cold and detached unless he wants something from you, then he’s sickeningly sweet and no matter how nice he is you always feel that awful pit in your stomach knowing that once he has what he wants its back to barely acknowledging you

his shadow never fits his body— always misshapen, too tall or too short or too many eyes or not the right body at all- did it just move?

Because of his history with Wilford (and wil’s colorful and saturated personality) wilford is immune to dark’s vibe killer aura and doesn’t seem to notice that Damien isn’t exactly human— he’s more like something pretending to be human and learning more every day, mimicking breathing or certain habits or gestures

If his aura cracks the ringing goes up to a deafening shriek

But everything changed in an instant. The war in Gaza destroyed our home, my office, and my livelihood. In a matter of moments, our lives were turned upside down, and we were forced to flee, leaving behind the only life we knew.

Now, my children and I are refugees in a new city, trying to find a way to rebuild from nothing. We have lost not just our home and possessions but also our sense of security and hope. My children ask me daily when we can go home, but I have no answer for them. The war has taken everything from us.

I am reaching out for help because I believe in the kindness and generosity of people. With your support, we can start to rebuild our lives. Donations will go towards finding a safe place for my children, securing basic necessities, and eventually, rebuilding a new future for us all.

Your contribution, no matter how small, will make a huge difference in our lives. Please help us rebuild after this unimaginable loss. Together, we can restore hope for my children and give them the chance to heal and thrive.

Thank you for your kindness and support.

Sincerely,

Eman

I'm Anas Basil, a recent high school graduate with dreams of pursuing a degree in e-business management and building a career. However, due to my family's financial hardships, I enrolled at Khan Younis Training College (KYTC), affiliated with UNRWA. Sadly, the war has turned the college, once a beacon of hope and education, into a shelter for displaced families, stripping it of its educational purpose.

I completed high school with a 93% average, filled with excitement about continuing my education and securing a job to support my family. But like so many others, the war has shattered those dreams.

My younger brother, Ahmad, is 14 years old and currently in the third grade of preparatory school. We’ve always called him "Doctor of the Future" because of his intelligence and natural talent in mathematics. Unfortunately, due to the ongoing war, he has been deprived of schooling for the second consecutive year. In addition to his academic abilities, Ahmad has a passion for football and used to win tournaments.

Our Life in Displacement: The war forced our family to flee to Rafah, where we lived in a tent for several months. Each day, my brother and I would wake up to fetch water, gather wood, and light a fire to prepare food. Survival became our daily task, but we never gave up hope. The conflict affected us deeply, but it did not extinguish our dreams of education and a better future.

🚀 How Your Donation will Help us:

We are seeking €29,000 to help Ahmed and me leave Gaza, continue our education. More importantly, it will allow us to support our family, who have been deeply affected by the harsh conditions and skyrocketing costs of living due to the ongoing war in Gaza.

We've outlined how your donations will make this possible. You can find all the details in the campaign link below.

👉 Donation link: 🔗https://gofund.me/32e5e95e

Your contribution will not only help us escape the war-torn reality we live in but also give us the opportunity to rebuild our futures.

Every donation, no matter the amount, brings us one step closer to our goal.

With deepest gratitude, Anas & Ahmed
