It's Funny - The Scene With Marisol And Eddie Playing Happy Family Over Ice Cream Was Less Believable

It's funny - the scene with Marisol and Eddie playing happy family over ice cream was less believable to me than Eddie meeting Shannon's twin and sleeping with her. He's just decided that they don't know each other well enough to live together - but he's letting her get close to Christopher? What? But it paralleled the flashback scene where Eddie and Shannon were in bed (sex having always been their escape from reality), romanticizing what putting their family back together was going to be like ("Santa says mommy can come home!" Is the Easter Bunny going to comfort Chris when she leaves again?).

In both cases, Eddie is pulling these women closer in order to pull this picture perfect family back together. And this becomes especially apparent when the flashback to Shannon cuts and Eddie and Marisol are left sitting alone in this small, dark space, the vibe wildly different without Christopher there. They still have nothing to say to each other- this fact of their relationship hasn't changed since 7x05. Marisol is Kim - Eddie is playing out his dead relationship with Shannon with both women and he's going to be in for a rude awakening when reality hits - twice!

Old dreams die hard, specifically dreams that you come up with when you're young and naive and the world is full of possibility, dreams that you carry to war and that keep you going in brutal circumstances. More than Shannon herself, Eddie can't give up on what they were supposed to have.

Which makes it SO painfully ironic that Eddie's dream family is actually RIGHT THERE in front of him if he just reaches for it. The warm family scene in Buck's loft was such a deliberate contrast to both the flashback scene with Shannon and the second scene with Marisol. Shannon is dead and Eddie is just wasting time with his current gf - that's the cold, hard truth he's going to have to face soon. But it's also true that Eddie and Chris know Buck well enough to have pizza on the way when Buck's experimenting in the kitchen. And maybe that's how Eddie's dreams might still come true.

‘destiel is queerbait’ ‘destiel is canon and therefore not queerbait’

wrong. destiel defies regular definitions of canon and queerbait and in fact it’s both because of the sheer chaos going on in that writers room,, like one writer was doing heartfelt canon destiel, another one was only doing destiel for the bit, another one was doing queerbait destiel, another one was doing unrequited destiel, another one was actively trying to undermine someone else’s work and view of the pairing, and I could go on

-Waiting-

Didn’t I told you to wait? yes, wait patiently. You don’t have to be perfect, you can’t be but be patient with yourself.

I have seen how things changes so quickly each passing day. It’s like in a moment, I watched this kid walking in front of me and after a few blinks an old man passed away. The world is a place of constant change, nothing stays the same.

Of course, eventually some thought there are things that until now they haven’t had any changes over the passing of time but some changes doesn’t have to be obvious. They just happen even before we notice them.

So to you my friend, dear heart, dear self, be patient. Your season is not yet here, summer may burn your skin or change the color of your eyes.

Maybe, those storms has hardened your heart but soon when even a leaf won’t fall from the tree, right when you’re about to close your eyes, you’ll be quickened and all you have to do is take a step forward because finally, you discover your purpose.

Everything will fall into place and all you have to do is follow where light & love leads you. But for now, stay objective, keep trying, believe, pray, do what’s necessary, just don’t compromise. You’ll get there, satisfied, healed, loved, fulfilled, mattered and accomplished. Don’t worry, my dear, you’ll finish well.

poetic beauty

the poetic beauty  i believe in  is a  writer’s naked voice describing the world in the only possible way, originality,  emptying  the one  brain like popcorn on the stove,  bubbling up,  rising  into the clouds through a skylight,  into the stars like the  eyes of a child,  into the unending night  and back again to a toaster,  to a  lightswitch,  to a  fan you  keep on for more than air, 

it’s the  greatest thing  we ever made,   and someday we’ll unmake  it,  with a look,  we’ll say:  jesus,  do you  remember  when language made us mad, crazy, gone like a bat in the daytime?

yes yes yes we remember, 

they were  disastrous,   letters, words, lines were a plague disguised,  they were poison in  the cake,  tsk tsk tsk no, 

it’ll be a great act,  we’ll shame ourselves,  the old us,  

but when  nobody’s watching, in bed when the outlights are on and  the inlights are off, 

we’ll  pull a book of poetry  from under the  pillow, 

we’ll finger the soft pages and  our eyes will glow  like burning diamonds,   the words the words the words will dance like peacocks,  irresisitble in the  hopeless expanse,  the hopeful warmth of a blanket,  tomorrow,  there’s that, and  yesterday  too,  but the  words have both  by the legs, 

the words in your head are killers,  are lovers,  are  the flight of a  flightless creature tasting the sky. 

when faced with the decision to write a poem or not write a poem,  i’m not sure how to  justify the  latter.

Young Adult vs. New Adult

What’s the Difference, Anyway?

So many people seem to think YA and NA are the same thing, or NA is YA but with the sex. Have a bullet list from someone who’s tired of seeing them lumped into the same category.

Young Adult

the target audience is 12 to 18 years old

the protagonists are usually kiddos that still live at home and need their parents’ signatures on official documents

themes commonly work with personal relationships on an emotional level, and do a lot of coming-of-age/coming-into-ones-own-identity

sex, swearing, and violence are all watered down for a younger audience

New Adult

the target audience is 18 to 30 years old

the protagonists are of the moving-out age and can start making the big decisions on their own

themes commonly encompass the overall lifestyle shift of taking on adult responsibilities, moving away from home, and dealing with the consequences of the aforementioned big decisions

there is potential the sex, and the swearing, and the violence

These are incomplete lists, but the point is please, please, please stop equating these two different, but equally valuable, genres.
