i get so sick (of myself) by oceanofchaos summary: The thing about Eddie and Hen bonding is that he might not want to admit it, but Buck’s jealous. He’s achingly and overwhelmingly jealous. He’s jealous of Eddie. He knows how it sounds, he knows what people think. He hasn’t even tried to raise it with Maddie, because she’d laugh at him and she wouldn’t believe him, and she’d ask if he was sure he wasn’t jealous of Hen. It really isn’t that. Hen is special. Hen’s always been there for him, always been a steady and constant support like no one else. The thing that no one seems to understand is that he lost Eddie months ago. ----- Episode tag to 9x5 Día de los Muertos, in which Buck really truly is jealous of Eddie, not Hen. relationships: buck/eddie, buck & eddie, buck & hen additional tags: buck has abandonment issues jealousy episode tag 9x05 dia de los muertos tag emotional hurt/comfort sometimes you simply need to argue it out post ep 9x05 angst with a happy ending first kiss

I was lucky enough to avoid an online funeral during the height of the pandemic, and have been unlucky enough to have to attend one now, and I can safely say I never fucking want to do that again

A disclaimer I never thought I’d have to make, but if you want to come into the comment section of my fic to argue over who is in the right/wrong, buck or eddie, I have exactly as much patience for it as they would have, which is to say absolutely none.

Genuinely crazy how often we end up having the discourse around queer actors playing queer characters. How many more people have to be outed in the name of queer representation? How have we not learned and grown as a society??

it’s St Lucy’s day, so you know what that means — time for the best John Donne poem
JOHN DONNE (1572-163I) A Nocturnall upon S. Lucies Day, Being the Shortest Day Tis the yeares midnight, and it is the dayes, Lucies, who scarce seaven houres herself unmaskes, The Sunne is spent, and now his flasks Send forth light squibs, no constant rayes; The worlds whole sap is sunke: The generall balme th'hydroptique earth hath drunk, Whither, as to the beds-feet life is shrunke, Dead and enterr'd; yet all these seeme to laugh, Compar'd with mee, who am their Epitaph. Study me then, you who shall lovers bee At the next world, that is, at the next Spring: For I am every dead thing, In whom love wrought new Alchimie. For his art did expresse A quintessence even from nothingnesse, From dull privations, and leane emptinesse, He ruin'd mee, and I am re-begot Of absence, darknesse, death; things which are not. All others, from all things, draw all that's good, Life, soule, forme, spirit, whence they beeing have, I, by loves limbecke, am the grave Of all, that's nothing. Oft a flood Have wee two wept, and so Drownd the whole world, us two; oft did we grow To be two Chaosses, when we did show Care to ought else; and often absences Withdrew our soules, and made us carcasses. But I am by her death, (which word wrongs her) Of the first nothing, the Elixer grown; Were I a man, that I were one, I needs must know, I should preferre, If I were any beast, Some ends, some means; Yea plants, yea stones detest, And love; All, all some properties invest, If I an ordinary nothing were, As shadow, a light, and body must be here. But I am None; nor will my Sunne renew. You lovers, for whose sake, the lesser Sunne At this time to the Goat is runne To fetch new lust, and give it you, Enjoy your summer all, Since shee enjoyes her long nights festivall, Let mee prepare towards her, and let mee call This houre her Vigill, and her Eve, since this Both the yeares, and the dayes deep midnight is.
