The mystery is, you can eat fear

Tags: canon-compliant, self-sacrifice for the good of the group
Prompt:

Sweetheart, you look a little tired
When did you last eat?
Come in and make yourself right at home
Stay as long as you need
Tell me, is something wrong?
If something's wrong, you can count on me
You know I'll take my heart clean apart if it helps yours beat
(...)
I know exactly how the rule goes
Put my mask on first
No, I don't want to talk about myself
Tell me where it hurts
I just want to build you up, build you up
Till you're good as new
And maybe one day I will get around to fixing myself too
(...)
I don't even know where to start
Already tired of trying to recall when it all fell apart
I just want to love you, to love you, to love you well
I just want to learn how, somehow, to be loved myself

— Sleeping At Last, Two

[angeltide]

Characters/Ship: Any
Tags: canon-compliant, a good old blend of admiration, envy, and insecurity

Tags: canon-compliant, finding solace in another person (whether that be a fellow member, or a friend outside)
Prompt:

Can you really love with a broken heart
In the cold rain?
I'm giving it a try, I'll let it fly
You can count me in

So when the night falls, I’ll be on your side
These eyes don’t lie
'Cause my defeated heart’s got nothing to hide
It's my only vice

— Carole & Tuesday, The Loneliest Girl

Characters/Ship: Any (sunshine x reserved/grump)
Tags: meeting someone who changes your entire outlook for the better
Prompt:

But you had to come along didn't you?
Rev up the crowd
Rewrite the rule book
Where do I go when every no turns into maybe
So what do I do with this?

This sudden burst of sunlight
And me with my umbrella
Cross-indexing every weatherman's report
I was ready for the down slide
But not for spring to well up
This feeling calls for everything I can't afford
To know is possible now

— Vienna Teng, Stray Italian Greyhound

'Cause I, I know places we can hide
I know places, I know places
— I Know Places, Taylor Swift

Our secret moments in a crowded room
They got no idea about me and you
There is an indentation in the shape of you
Made your mark on me, a golden tattoo
— Dress, Taylor Swift

Tags: survival show
Prompt:

Oh, I couldn't stop it
Tried to slow it all down
Crying in the bathroom
Had to figure it out
With everyone around me saying
"You must be so happy now"

Oh, if you keep reachin' out
Then I'll keep comin' back
'Cause if you're gone for good
Then I'm okay with that
If you leave the light on
Then I'll leave the light on

maggie rogers - lights on

[staygame]

Characters/Ship: any
Tags: complicated friendships, unresolved friendship tension
Prompt:

I have never fought gracefully with women. From the earliest, I felt any misstep on my part carried an elephantine weight. Both shame and pride would burn in my stomach. I was a wretched friend, I would think to myself. No, I was obviously misunderstood. Regardless, I was going to lose her.

I was going to lose her—that was always my fear. My trespass didn’t matter. It was less what I’d done wrong than my paranoia and neediness that would inevitably weary my friend. I would take her departure as a bitter loss, but also as a personal failure. In my adolescence, when my heart thumped to the rhythms of social acceptance, foundering in friendship seemed like the biggest of all recipes for disaster.

—from the art of loving and losing female friends by rachel vorona cote (tw for self-harm at source)

[hyojungss]

Characters/Ship: any
Tags: that pre-confession/denial stage
Prompt:

Gilbert, to be sure, was still faithful, and waded up to Green Gables every possible evening. But Gilbert’s visits were not what they once were. Anne almost dreaded them. It was very disconcerting to look up in the midst of a sudden silence and find Gilbert’s hazel eyes fixed upon her with a quite unmistakable expression in their grave depths; and it was still more disconcerting to find herself blushing hotly and uncomfortably under his gaze, just as if—just as if—well, it was very embarrassing.

-- anne of avonlea, l.m. montgomery

Sunday Song by Hatchie

I ruin you and save you

[hyojungss]

Characters/Ship: Any
Tags: moral ambiguity, love that seems somewhat irrational at least on a surface level
Prompt:

Good and evil people are not clearly distinguished. Good and evil coexist within one person. Even if one seems good, greed and temptation always exist together inside. We simply try to resist from being captivated by evil.

"in front of my mother and my sisters, i pretend love is cheap and vulgar. i act like it's a sin- i pretend that love is for women on a dark path. but at night i dream of a love so heavy it makes my spine throb- i dream up a lover who makes love like he is separating salt from water."

and you realize the person who loves you isn't the one you thought it would be,
and you don't trust him to love you in a way
you would enjoy.
