#atticus finch

Atticus Finch (To Kill a Mockingbird): Quiet moral authority, unshakeable integrity, and a man who stands up for the vulnerable. He’d dismantle Zade with words first… then, if needed, ensure justice is served the old-fashioned way.

Gilbert Blythe (Anne of Green Gables): Patient, supportive, and the definition of healthy devotion. He’d look at Zade’s version of “romance,” decide it was an abomination, and make sure it never happened again.

Mr. Knightley (Emma): Straightforward, respectful, and the king of calling out bad behavior while still being a gentleman. Zade would not survive one of his pointed lectures, let alone the follow-through.

Peeta Mellark (The Hunger Games): Soft-spoken, genuinely kind, and the opposite of possessive toxicity. He’d clock the stalking and manipulation immediately and protect the woman involved with quiet steel and zero dark-romance vibes.

Samwise Gamgee (The Lord of the Rings): Loyal, pure-hearted, garden-loving, and fiercely protective of the people he cares about. He’d see Zade’s behavior, call it what it is, and go full “you’re not touching her” hobbit rage with a frying pan and zero hesitation.

Steve Rogers / Captain America (MCU): Embodies respect, consent, and “I can do this all day” protectiveness. Zade’s entire personality is everything Steve fights against. One shield throw later and the problem is solved.

Ted Lasso: Relentlessly optimistic, kind to a fault, and allergic to toxicity. He’d try the “be a better man” speech first… then, when that failed spectacularly, the football (and the rest of the team) would get involved.

one of the best christmas presents ever!

my dad surprised my brother, boyfriend, and me all with tickets to see nine inch nails in jacksonville!

i remember how cold it was that night standing in line waiting for the doors to open. i was so excited to finally see the band that has so much history for my family. nothing will top the feeling of hearing them play head like a hole and my brother and i turning to each other because it used to be my dads ringtone for the LONGEST time. i even joked with him and asked if he was going to pick up the phone.

they put on an amazing performance and i couldn’t be more grateful for my dad in creating this memory for my brother and i. without him i don’t think i would have ever been this passionate about music.

10+ years later, im rereading the book for my summer book club and atticus reminds me SO much of emmrich volkarin. the manners, the intelligence, the sound morals and kindness???

Shrine update of my darling :3

I got a tattoo today whoops
