“What makes you happy?”
Vic looked up at the stars. “Home. The forest. Out here, I feel… small. Like I could get lost and no one would ever know.”
“Pish posh,” the Coachman said. “Your friends would know. And I doubt they’d allow it, not even for a moment. Perhaps you’ll be lost at some point, but they will find you.”
“That,” Vic said, voice barely carrying above the wind. “That’s at least a part of my happiness, I think. Knowing I’d be found.”
In the Lives of Puppets, by TJ Klune
The thing about Katara is that she was angry.
She was angry that the Fire Nation killed her mother.
She was angry that her father left them.
She was angry that she was the only Waterbender left in the south pole.
She was angry that the only person her age was her brother, who constantly disregarded her interests and her role in the tribe.
She was angry that what little waterbending she knew, had to be self-taught and how she struggled with that.
she was angry that a twelve year old instantly picked up what had taken her a long time to learn.
she was also angry that her tribe wanted to kick that twelve year old into the wilderness over a mistake.
she was angry over the earth-benders the fire nation had captured and put into a metal box.
she was angry.
And she knew she was angry.
Because she knew her own anger, she was the first to empathize with Aang when he got angry.
And it was because of it she could tell Aang forcing himself to lock his emotions up was not the answer.
Because she knew her own anger, she kept herself under control in the dessert, when everyone else was a mess.
Her anger empowered her. where anger was a tool of self-destruction for firebenders, for her it was what helped her push forward.
It was her anger that freed Aang.
It was her anger that helped her stand to Pakku.
Her anger was her strenght.
She was angry. And this was neither a mistake, nor a writing flaw.
“Come on, don’t sell yourself short. If anything, sell yourself tall and get it altered later.”

Everything Everywhere All at Once (2022)
Part Three of Not-So-Secret Secret Admirer!!! Part One. Part Two. AO3 Link.
Eddie doesn’t know what to get Steve next. Well, he knows what he wants to give Steve, but he’s pretty sure a mixtape would be a dead giveaway. But it’s four days after the second gift, and he needs one for tomorrow.
He groans and flops down on his bed. What’s vague enough that doesn’t scream Eddie Munson is your fake secret admirer? He could get cupcakes or something, but that’s kind of dumb and not personal enough. Plus, he wants to see Steve get flustered again. It feels nice to know that he can do that to Steve Harrington.
Because it’s Steve, and he doesn’t seem easily wooed, as he’s always the one doing the wooing. Eddie is glad to be giving Steve a break for once because he’s a great friend. A great friend who happens to get butterflies when he sees his other friend get giddy from his anonymous gifts.
Eddie flails his arm out to grab his pillow and scream into it – instead, he hits his bedside table and hears a large clattering noise. The universe is against him tonight.
Eddie groans and rolls to the side of his mattress to check if anything important fell besides his deodorant. He sees a few abandoned hair ties and an empty soda can but nothing of value. Until he’s slightly blinded by a gleam of silver.
He reaches out and grabs the small object, fingers wrapping around the cool metal. It’s the ring he keeps on his nightstand, far too large for any of his fingers but also with a simple design carved into the metal that is almost too pretty for Eddie to be putting it on a chain to wear around his neck.
It’s not anything too sentimental besides the fact that Eddie has had it for years now after spotting it at some yard sale and immediately swiping it – blame his father for teaching him that trick. He stares at it for the first time in a long time fully taking it in. He has the absurd thought that it would look pretty on Steve.
It would look pretty on Steve. He’s scared he’d hate it and wear it only when Eddie is around to see it. But if it’s from his secret admirer, Eddie doesn’t have to worry about Steve’s politeness. He laughs and clutches the ring to his chest thinking of a cheesy note to write Steve as he drifts off.

The next part of the Steve joins Hellfire AU! Tentatively calling this 'A Fox in the Hen House' Read from the start here. Also.....over a hundred of you wanted to be tagged so I'm going to tag in the replies after 50!! If you want to be tagged let me know. I also was wondering what we think of me putting this on ao3? I really want to keep these as super short chapters <2000 words a piece, so it feels silly to put it on there, but if you guys want it I'll try it! Anyway story time
------
Steve laughed right in Eddie’s face when he found out exactly what Hellfire was a club for.
“I’m sorry,” He struggled to say between giggles, “I swear I’m not laughing at you, I- I- I swear,”
“Sure looks like you are,” One of the boys at the table said with a glower, the rest giving Steve equally unimpressed looks. Only Eddie remained neutral, staring at Steve with one raised brow.
“Care to clue the rest of us in?”
Steve shook his head trying to stuff down the completely inappropriate reaction he just had. The irony was still choking him, and he had no idea how to explain why exactly he found the whole thing so funny.
“The kids I babysit- holy shit they’re never going to let me live this down- they’re obsessed with dungeons and dragons. They hang out at my house, and they like to play their game there, cause I let them stay up later than their parents would, and they’re always trying to get me to play with them,”

no one asked but this is the post that inspired this! thank u immensely for the luv <3 number 1 comment was wondering what steve’s bids were & from his pov, so without further ado…enjoy — part one here!
—
Begrudgingly, Eddie has to admit that Robin might be right.
It’s impossible not to be looking for the bids since he brought them up to her. Even though Eddie was fully expecting to tell Robin to suck it, maybe even wager what little money he had against this working out, Eddie can’t help but watch for them in every interaction. And fuck, she’s right.
They’re little, but they’re there.
The first one Eddie would’ve missed if he wasn’t looking for it. Actually, that’s a lie; Eddie does miss it, until Robin points it out, the nosy bitch. It’s minuscule and honestly, it just seems like Steve asking his opinion — which friends do all the time! It’s why Eddie brushes right over it.
“Okay, be honest,“ Steve had said, walking and talking as he entered the living room where Robin and Eddie were sprawled across the couches. They were both waiting on him, the three of them set on heading out to the drive-in to catch a film.
Eddie can’t fathom why Steve felt the need to change his outfit for it, but when he returns, he gets it. It’s not quite the usual polo Eddie had grown to like on Steve, this one hanging a little looser, the colour a bit darker than Steve’s usual choice, the sleeves a little shorter — almost midway to a muscle tee.
Steve’s fingers fiddle with the distressed collar of the shirt, smoothing invisible wrinkles and fussing over nothing. He swishes back his floppy hair with a flick of his head. “It’s a new shirt, I know it’s a little different - but what do we think?”
He says we but he’s looking at Eddie.

— mister, you’re a real magician. because you made me really believe in magic. — thank you for helping my magic succeed.
the first season of Russian Doll was like everything you do matters kindness matters people need people it’s important
the second second of Russian Doll was like there is nothing you can do to change the past we are the women who came before us you need to face what is in front of you even if it hurts

IMPORTANT BTS QUOTES TO GET YOU THROUGH HARD DAYS
RM
“You would think that you are always worrying more than others, thinking that you are the weird one. Consider it as something like, branches of your young days? If you think of it like the process of a tree growing up, later on, it will be an experience. Of course, it will hurt. It will be hard. You will go through all the pruning, chopping and cutting, and it will hurt. But after those times, I’m sure you will become a great, great tree.”
“Everyone suffers in their life. There are many sad days. But rather than sad days, we hope to make better days. That’s what makes us live. That’s what makes us dream.”
“If you want to love others, I think you should love yourself first.”
“I believe that there’s no improvement if you have an inferiority complex and victim mentality.”
“Why is there no opposite word of loneliness? Could it be because people, until they die, have no moments of not being lonely?”
“I know they talk like you’re too naive, you’re too young but eventually fools change the world. I believe that. So let’s believe in ourselves more”
“Life is more beautiful knowing we’ve taken a loan on death. Even light is treasured more when there is darkness.”
“I hope the tendency to belittle individuality or a person’s unique way of expression will change. I think how people do their hair or what they wear are up to a person’s taste. Hair and clothes? Aren’t the things totally unrelated to what a person actually needs to philosophize over?”
“There are two ways to change the world. First, being revolutionary. Second, looking at the world positively. I want to do both. I’ll do both.”
“The sea is cold and dark, but if you must become a wave for someone, I hope you can become a kind wave.”
“True revenge is to be strong. To survive. To protect.”
JIN
“Just because others are having difficulties, doesn’t mean that yours get any less difficult. So, whenever you’re having a hard time, tell others that you’re struggling. Ask them to understand and comfort you. Please be sure to say that.”
“Don’t sacrifice too much for others and treasure yourself more“
“Your presence can give happiness. I hope you remember that.”
“The pain you’ve been feeling, Can’t compare to the joy that’s coming.“
“The only time you should ever look back, is to see how far you’ve come.”
“Just because the past didn’t turn out the way you wanted it. Doesn’t mean your future can’t be better than ever imagined.”
“I also get depressed. I just try to stay positive for you guys.”
“You are really the only one who needs to acknowledge your efforts.”
“People succeed when others say negative things.“
“‘I love you’. That’s a nice thing to say.”
“I think pride is good for nothing.“
If we all gather our embarrassment together, it’ll become confidence.“
“Good influence becomes bigger when it’s shared.“
“Everything becomes a bad thing when you think negative. When you think positive, it becomes better. That’s what I believe.”
“When something doesn’t work out, instead of scolding yourself, say, ‘Okay, this happened this time, so next time I’ll do better. It’s okay’. There’s even a saying that failure is the mother of success. This time will be a stepping-stone for the next success. If something works out, you should say ‘Indeed! Indeed, I did well. I’m a good person, I’m really the best’. With this mindset, I hope you all love yourself a lot more.”
SUGA
“Those who don’t have a dream, it’s okay, it’s okay if you don’t have a dream. You just have to be happy.”
“Age and gender, nationality and religion, what language you use - all of that isn’t important to me.”
“In the end they’ll judge me anyway so whatever.”
“Life is tough, and things don’t always work out well, but we should be brave and go on with our lives.”
“The dawn before the sun rises is darker than anything but don’t ever forget that the stars you want only rise in the darkness.”
“The higher you climb, the colder it gets. The brighter you shine, the more shadow you cast.”
“Anxiety and loneliness stay forever. And how you choose to make peace with them, that needs a lifetime of consideration.”
“I really want to say that everyone in the world is lonely and everyone is sad, and if we know that everyone is suffering and lonely, I hope we can create an environment where we can ask for help, and say things are hard when they’re hard, and say that we miss someone when we miss them.”
“The compass needle always shakes right before pointing to the exact way. Life is the same.”
“No one taught me how to be satisfied and how to be happy. The road, you will know the path when you walk on it. The mountains, you will know how rough when you climb up. The person, you will know that person when you interact with them, you can see through their mind. When a long lifetime has passed.The darkest is right before the sunrise. The water is the noisiest right before its boiling point. So happiness doesn’t come without knowing anything. It always comes after the time of enduring pain.”
JHOPE
“A warm smile is the universal language of kindness.”
“It doesn’t matter how bright my personality is, I’m still human. I do get stressed.”
“Don’t ever make decisions based on fear. Make decisions based on hope and possibility.”
“Stop comparing. I am just me.”
“It’s hard but it’s as if I’m addicted to basking in your love.”
“When things get tough, look at the people who love you! You will get energy from them.”
JIMIN
“Know that the pain will pass. And when it does you will be stronger.”
“Once your heart is moved, it will develop to something better and positive.”
“Silence is golden. Don’t waste time.”
“I thought the phrase ‘Love Yourself’ would mean extra special to people who are harsh on themselves, like me for instance.”
“Sometimes it can get so hard by pretending that it’s ok.”
“Actually I didn’t love myself before…I’ve drunk alone in the room and thought badly a lot. When I gave a hard time to myself I felt I could grow. At that moment I realized that I have to believe in myself…and think of good things.”
V
“Don’t be trapped in someone else’s dream.”
“You can’t just come into someone’s life, make them feel special, and then leave.”
“When things get hard, stop for awhile and look back and see how far you’ve come. Don’t forget how rewarding it is.”
“I have learned to look back and appreciate my times of trial, as they are also what made me.”
“Unless you open up and share your feelings. No one will understand what you are going through.”
JUNGKOOK
“My wish is for you to move on from relationships that aren’t equal. You deserve to be loved.“
“Effort makes you. You will regret someday if you don’t do your best now. Don’t think it’s too late but keep working on it. It takes time, but there’s nothing that gets worse due to practicing. So practice. You may get depressed, but it’s evidence that you are doing good.”
“Whenever ARMYs miss us, you can come to us. If you have to go or if you want to go, it’s okay for you to leave us. But always remember this. I will always be here “
“We should try to respect and understand each other. We need to be considerate of others. Only then we can understand each other and get close to each other and become one.“
“We have been lucky. But we worked for that luck.”
“Don’t be stubborn, and don’t be too vain. As I’ve lived, I realized there is nothing useful of pride.”
“Don’t do anything you don’t like to do. Just do whatever you want.”
“Hard work will get us somewhere.”
“Don’t lose the people beside you because of your mistakes and wrongs. And live [your life] to the fullest.”
“I can’t tell you to gain strength no matter what, but I do wish that within the hard times you face, you can find things that makes you happy.”
There are many life lessons to gather from BTS’ words. The seven boys might be young but they have been swimming in a harsh and heartless adult world. They matured early and without a warning given. This took me an eternity to gather. But I made this post aiming that some of you will find hope in these words or maybe just a feeling of comforting, like a pat on the back. Hope you liked it ^^ By @mimibtsghost
