it is bad in here guys

too many ships about love and devotion and soul mates yadda yadda yaddda and while that is fine and well that is not what grabs me. They would not have 2 kids and a house and a marriage and go to couples therapy. they would not die for each other. rhey arent even in a relationship w each other. they would probably get high and fuck nasty on a couch for a couple hours though and I think that's beautiful

they probably cant love me back in a human or even mammalian sense, but my goldfish with their smooth pea-sized brain have learned to trust that i will make them better when they are sick. i feel like crying about this often

Maybe Princess the tarantula never had anything resembling what we as humans know as emotions, but she still came out of her burrow and up to the glass when we’d talk to her and used to stare at the drawing I’d tape to her terrarium. Maybe she couldn’t even comprehend what we were, but she knew we were there to take care of her. And even if she never showed that sort of curiosity or trust we’d still love her.

Idk if Munchie the praying mantis felt love for me, but I do know he trusted me enough to climb onto my hand when offered and was comfortable with allowing me to carry him places despite me being absolutely massive in comparison to him. So that's close enough in my book.

i am argued with FREQUENTLY that reptiles don’t feel love and I still don’t understand how a snake trusting me to carry it around out of the safety of its burrow and play with it though i am twelve times its size is not some kind of love

i delude myself into thinking i am a gerardcoded gerardgirl. i am wrong, and always have been wrong i know myself i see myself in frankey yero
