* OPTIMISTIC !

❛            yeah    ,        yeah    i’m    listening    greg    .            you    really    are    the    riddle    master    .           ❜            his  mouth  tastes  bitter  ,        smile  strained  as  his  hand  tightens  its  holds  on  greg’s  .          wirt  can  feel  the  clamminess  building      /      tongue  like  lead  and  heart  becoming  heavy  alike  the  water  that  seemed  to  seep  through  every  breath          (      ‘    boy  ,        you  have  it  backwards  !          it  is  you  to  blame  !    ‘      )  .          it’s  hard  finding  a  response  to  your  younger  step  brother  speaking  of  his  near  death  .          it’s  even  harder  realising  it  is  through  negligence  ,        selfishness  and  own  self  -  pity  that  led  to  it  .          wirt  feels  sick  .

the    sensation    of    cold    flakes    freezing    his    face    ,        the  pugnet  scent  of  oil  and  sulphur  and  the  blurred  sight  of  leaves  keeps  darkened  edged  memories  a  consistent  flicker  in  the  corner  of  his  eyes  as  he  nods  slowly  ,        feigning  interest  .             ❛            it  was  pretty  brave  of  you  standing  up  to  the  beast  though  ,        but  just  .           just  don’t  mention  it  to  mom  though  ,        ok  ?          it  could  be  our  ,        uh  ,        secret  .           ❜

❛  heck yeah  !  i’m the riddle master  !  jason funderberker thinks so too  ,  right buddy  ?  ❜     the frog sitting atop his kettle croaks     (  he assumes that’s an agreement  !  )     then hops off  .  the truth is  ,  it’s not a memory he enjoys  .  sometimes it’s as though he still hears that operatic voice  ,  singing as he wanders through the woods in search of solutions to impossible puzzles  /  singing as the cold stings his skin  ,  but even knowing it was an act of self sacrifice he wouldn’t give up  .  not until wirt got home  .  in reality  ,  he’d been terrified  .  should children have to fear death so much  ,  at such a young age  ?  until that day it’d been nothing but a concept  .  one might call it the worst day of his life  .

------  but not gregory  ,  he’ll speak of that day as though he were a hero having the time of his life  .  like he said  ,  he’s the riddle master  !  focusing on the few positives of that day  ...  it’s all he’ll do  .  for wirt and his worries  ,  and for himself  ;  it’s his optimistic nature  ,  after all  !  the bad parts can stay in his dreams  ,  because that’s the place they refuse to leave  .     (  and when they’re only in his dreams  ,  they can go unmentioned  .  )

❛  and then  ,  and then  ---  wirt  !  are you listening  ?  ❜     he’s bouncing on his heels  ,  grin wide as he recalls his creativity being put to the test  .  he tells a tale of what was almost his death in a positive manner that contrasts his brother’s own  ,  but can one blame him  ?  after all  ,  wirt missed what he thinks was by far his proudest moment  ---  in all nine years of his life  !     ❛  where was i  ?  oh yeah  !  so after i brought him the honeycomb he told me to put the sun in a cup  !  i thought it was impossible but then i saw that the sun was setting  ,  so i put the cup down so the sun would fall into it  !  i’m the riddle master  !  you think so too  ,  right wirt  ?  ❜

01 .   i post a lot of ooc on my blogs because writing is a hobby and my activity is sporadic,  and since this is my blog i’ll post as much ooc as i want.   if that’s not for you,  cool,  don’t follow.

02 .   i’m mutuals only,  that’s self explanatory.

03 .   i’m open to basically anything  —-  original characters,  crossovers,  aus,  multi - muses,  etc.   but not genderbent / cisbent muses.   i’m highly selective with duplicates,  but i do follow them.

04 .   i won’t be shipping on this blog since greg is really young.

05 .   triggering themes may appear on this blog,  but i will do my best to tag everything properly ! on that note,  i ask that you tag :  nsfw*,  flashing images  /  gifs,  abuse,  and csa  /  rape.

* if you don’t tag your nsfw with the general nsfw tag,  i will unfollow immediately.

06 .   i’m pro - callouts and if you aren’t,  i’d rather you not follow me.   i will call out abusers  /  racists  /  etc and if that makes you uncomfortable,  i really could not care less.

07 .   i’m pascal,  or flynn.   i don’t mind being called either !   anyway,  i’m 16,  trans   ( he  /  him only please ! ),  and bi + polyam.   also,  i’m mentally ill and autistic so please be patient with me.   i can also be kind of overwhelming at times,  so sorry if i come on too strong !!   lmk if something i do bothers you and i’ll stop.   i’m pretty bad at taking hints.   if i’m not here you can find me on my twitter,  or my nanami chiaki.

anyway,  thanks for reading all of this !!   sorry if i sound rude in these,  i promise i’m pretty chill !
