one thing i liked better about my experience with tumblr as my main platform is that i never had to deal with drama

but i was also never part of any communities on here, i just posted my fanart without engaging too much

twitter has so much drama in communities though, and i hate drama man, i avoid it at all costs. but since my friend and i are owners of a community server with 100+ members at this point- I have to actually deal with drama and people.

It is nice having a group of lovely people, and I love all my twitter oomfs, but it gets really annoying having to deal with all the pettiness and drama over there.

i can't block people i dont like because so many of these people will put you on blast for blocking them, or even unmooting sometimes.

it doesnt really matter too much in the grand scheme of things obviously, but it can be very tiring. i dont think i was built to lead communities, i just want to goof around and make friends and block people i dont like.

idk, little rant sorry mooties ik ur gona read this lik girl whatchu on abt

idk man i just got home from work and have to deal with a weirdo in my server

anyways i'm done

Dying twice feels right Coffined between two lifetimes neither fully lived.

Remus’s heart was stuttering. He was inches away from Sirius’s face. His eyes were locked with Sirius’s stormy greys. Sirius’s mouth parted, and his chest heaved, but he didn’t push Remus away. 

Remus dipped his head slightly, giving Sirius a chance to move. Sirius didn’t, but neither did Remus. He’d started panicking. What if he kissed him and Sirius didn’t want him to? What if he kissed him and Sirius told McGonagall or Dumbledore what he’d done, and his dad had to come get him? 

Sirius must have noticed the sudden change in his demeanour because his hand came up off the bed. He brushed his fingers through Remus’s hair and brought his head down towards him, closing the gap between them.

Sirius’s lips were soft and gentle. Remus couldn’t believe what was happening. He’d never kissed anyone before and somehow Sirius was his first. They broke apart and Remus froze again, waiting for Sirius’s reaction. 

“Come here,” Sirius whispered. Remus lay down on the bed beside him. Sirius rolled his lips inside his mouth and bit down as he awkwardly wrapped his arm over Remus’s waist. Their eyes met again and they both laughed softly. 

Sirius’s fingers began to gently draw patterns along Remus’s side. “Well, that was different,” Sirius chuckled. “A good different.” He clarified when Remus tensed up. “I think I’d quite like to do it again.” Sirius smiled at him before he leaned forward and pressed his lips back against Remus’s.

Their second kiss was better than their first, now that the nervousness had gone. Remus relaxed and let Sirius take over. It was wonderful until Sirius’s hand dipped beneath Remus’s shirt and Remus leapt away. 

“Sorry,” He said, horrified at his reaction. “Erm, I’ve never had. What I mean is, no one's ever. Erm.” He screwed his eyes closed, trying to figure out what to say, when the cabin door burst open and a chattering James and Peter came in. They paused to take in the scene before them. 

“You two alright?” James asked them. Remus panicked again and ran into the bathroom, locking the door. 

“Guys, can you give us a minute?” He heard Sirius mutter to James and Peter through the door. The cabin door opened and closed again. Remus breathed out a sigh of relief. He’d be alright in a moment. 

Sirius knocked on the bathroom door. 

“Hey, Remus, you don’t have to be confined to the bathroom any more, James and Peter have gone.”

Remus unlocked the door and felt so embarrassed. Sirius was trying really hard to hold back his laughter. “Why on earth did you think the best course of action was to hide in there?” 

“I panicked,” Remus said, his face flushing hot and red. Sirius nodded. 

“Yeah, I guessed that.” He chuckled and gave Remus his best smile as he took his hand and led him back to the bed. “Come on, let's have a chat.”
