  1. Summary

    here is a list of things.

     

    Emotions you don’t understand upon viewing a sunset.

     

    Lost pets, found. Lost pets, unfound. A secret lost pet city on the moon.

     

    Trees that see. Restaurants that hear. A void that thinks.

     

    A face half seen just before falling asleep. Trembling hands reaching for desperately needed items.

     

    Sandwiches.

     

    Silence when there should be noise. Noise when there should be silence. Nothing when you want something. Something when you thought there was nothing.

     

    Clear plastic binder sheets. Scented dryer sheets. Rain coming down in sheets.

     

    Night. Rest. Sleep. End.

     

    or, the one where philza minecraft, a burnt-out architect looking for a fresh start, moves into a haunted house and ends up with a family — and the man who’s hunting them.

  4. Summary

    okay, and stop me if you’ve heard this one: a middle aged politician with wings, his child president, a traumatized and sarcastic teenager who lives for chaos, the cottagecore amnesiac ghost of a terrorist, and a reclusive anarchist pig walk into a cabin in the woods.

    and the first guy thinks to himself: “i am going to love the HECK out of all of them.”

    Bookmarker's Notes

    it is my curse and burden to share with you one of the best pieces of fiction i've ever read, period. the writing style is simultaneously hysterical and yet enough to hold all of the pain and terror that hides beneath it - much like kirk himself!! laugh out loud funny and made me cry more than once. i would die for this bones kirk friendship. at one point they do karaoke to you may be right by billy joel. downloaded to my kindle.

    tldr - the one other person on spotify that has a playlist for this fanfiction, we are to be wed at dawn.

    Summary

    This series is meant to feel a warm hug after a long hard cry. It’s about realizing and coming to terms with pain, fear, and grief. It’s about healing in community. It’s about living with, and despite, trauma. It’s about the power of authenticity and honesty and and doing better. It’s about breaking cycles and creating peace. It’s about choice. It’s about healthy relationships. It’s about the I share parts of me in you and you share parts of you in me and we make each other better for it. It’s about true safety, true connection, and truly unconditional love, even when the best of humans are imperfect.

    It’s also pretty funny, if I do say so myself. I hope you enjoy it!!!

    Bookmarker's Notes

    sometimes you read something, and you can feel it making you gentler, kinder, more understanding of the world and your past and your place with others.

    sometimes that thing is an unfinished batman fanfiction.

    one of the best works of fiction i have ever read in terms of found family, trauma informed parenting, adoption, dissociation, trauma, service animals, ptsd, growing up and growing into yourself. how can i ever read a different batdad, this is the only one ever. briefly delves into horror and it packs a PUNCH. was in the dms with my friend crow every few chapters having a fucking realization about each of our childhoods. fics i talked about in therapy.

    tldr they gave my blorbo ebola. read this fic

    Summary

    ‘Dick makes his way over to the stairs, glancing around furtively to make sure no one notices Arthur coming up with him, and doesn’t even register Jason coming down the stairs towards them until he’s right on top of them.

    “What are you doing?” he asks and Dick jumps about a mile in the air. So much for not looking guilty.’

    Dick trusts too easily, so Jason has to have his little brother’s back.

    Summary

    “Tim,” Bruce started. The conversation felt as if it was moving in slow motion, and Tim’s hands shook. He forced himself to meet Bruce's gaze— in a fucked up way, like pressing down on a bruise, he wanted to see what Bruce looked like when he finally said it, finally said he was a —

    “I know you’re transgender.”

    — dragon. Wait, what?

    -

    or, three times Tim thought someone figured out he was a dragon (and one time they actually did)

    Summary

    "Thinking about putting on one of the suits made Tim feel warm all over, happy like he didn’t remember ever feeling, but it flitted away the second Tim thought about the after. Going downstairs to see Bruce and Duke and Cass. Heading to the actual gala and seeing Dick and Babs. Reintroducing himself to his family.

    It all made Tim nauseous."

    Tim's trans and comes out to his family. Eventually.
