whatever souls are made of, yours and mine are the same (insult)
reading about a character who is way too similar to you and having an outside perspective on the situation:
aight so romeo confessed his love for juliet after knowing her for like 2 hours?? dude i can't even text “hey” to people i've known my entire life?
My toxic trait : I find it so offending when the person I hate, picks up one of my interests or starts listening to that one underrated artist I love. It's like sharing your room with the cousin whom you absolutely detest for some reason.
:) pain
kissing your lover’s forehead as they’re dying in your arms
being forced to watch the love of your life move on with someone else, you’ve gathered enough courage to tell them you want to be with them, only to catch them holding hands with someone else
our family won’t approve of our relationship but we have to stick together, until one day you question if the relationship is even worth all this secrecy and i can’t believe that you’d doubt us even for a second
i’m finally ready to be with you, but you’ve finally moved on from me, and i’m too late
we can’t be together but let’s make the most of the night before we have to go our separate ways, maybe watch the stars as we talk about how we would have gotten married, how many kids we would have had, if the odds had been in our favor
coming home to find your lover cheating on you, throwing all their things out the window and cursing them out of your life, wondering how they could do this to you ‘’you can’t claim to love someone, and then go and do what you just did.’’
being forced to kill your lover, because only one of you are going to survive, and your lover insists they couldn’t live in this life without you ‘’just promise me you’ll be happy. promise me you will be.’’
it’s been months since we broke up and i just found one of your old sweatshirts in my wardrobe and it’s making me miss you
we haven’t seen each other in years but reunite at a mutual friend’s wedding, things ended badly between us and we both know it’s better to avoid each other but of course we’re seated at the same table, opposite each other
we’re broken up, you’re over at my house to pick some of my stuff out, and neither of us know how to act, so i just let you inside, you grab your things, and leave as quickly
you’re over at my house to pick some of your stuff up, and as you load the last of your things into your car, you head back to my front door door to say goodbye, and somehow… we wind up in bed
being forced to kill your lover, but you can’t do it, so they take your hand, and help you press the knife into their chest, while the antagonist watches your every move, making sure neither of you try to run
having to watch your lover die, as you’re restrained by the antagonist, unable to fight your way out of their grip, yet your eyes are glued on your lover’s
having to say goodbye to your lover, who’s moving across the world, kissing them goodbye one last time before they board the plane. during your last kiss, your lover says they didn’t think you would make it to the airport but ‘’i couldn’t let you leave without saying goodbye.’’
two character’s dying together, laying outside in the cold, rain, holding hands
a love triangle in which, lover #2 recognizes how toxic lover #1 is for the main character ‘’one of you will end up killing the other. whether that’s physically or emotionally, one of you will end up killing the other. there’s no dimension in this world where the two of you end up happy.’’
accidentally catching your ex or the person you’re in love with getting frisky with someone else, and having to pretend like it doesn’t bother you
going to your lover’s house to apologize for something you did, but instead of being let in, you get the door slammed in your face ‘‘why are you here?’‘ ‘‘i’m here because i love you, and because i want to make things right.’‘ ‘‘well, i don’t want you here, so go away.’‘
one character, with trust issues, gets drunk one night and spills how insecure they are in the relationship ‘’you don’t. you don’t love me. you only love me when it’s beneficial.’’ or the partner is caught cheating and the character drops those words
your lover telling you that they don’t love you anymore, or that they’ve found someone else, and as you pack your things, you find a photo of the two of you together, from a time when you were happily in love
unrequited love, in which i just poured my heart out to you, telling you i love you and you said that you don’t feel the same way, and then you leave, and i’m standing here, not sure what to do, i can’t even cry that’s how shocked and heartbroken i am
‘‘you’re the worst thing that has ever happened to me. no, listen to me. you’ve destroyed me.’‘
a break up in which, one person doesn’t have any feelings for the other anymore, while the other one is still head over heels in love with them ‘’but that doesn’t mean that our love wasn’t real. doesn’t mean that you didn’t love me enough, or that you weren’t loved. you were. you’ll always be.’’ ‘’just not in the way i love you.’’ ‘’no.’’
promising your lover that you’ll make it home in time for your anniversary, but something comes up and you’re late, which screws up all your plans for the evening, and instead of celebrating your anniversary, your lover goes to bed, and barely utters one word to you the next morning
it’s toxic, and we’re not good for each other, and ‘’i love you so much it’s killing me.’’
begging your lover to open the door so you can talk things through ‘’i know you’re in there. [character], please, open up.’’ but as they won’t, ‘’at least let me say goodbye.’’
a character using their last bit of strength to kiss you goodbye, before they close their eyes for the last time
two characters are about to kiss, but pulls away last second when one character says ‘’this isn’t right.’’ and the other replies with ‘’you wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t.’’
‘’you said you wouldn’t break my heart, and then that’s exactly what you did.’’
‘’i don’t want to listen to a single word coming out of your mouth.’’
‘‘we can’t be together. it’s too dangerous. you understand that, right?’‘
one character, who’s either been brainwashed or cursed by the antagonist into trying to kill their lover, has their lover pressed up against the wall, a knife to their throat, having tried to convince their lover to kill them instead, before they hurt them, in which their lover says ‘’go ahead. do it. if you’re telling the truth, if you’re so convinced you’ll kill me, do it.’’ and the character stares at their lover, who then says ‘’if you weren’t in control, you would have done it a long time ago.’’ and it then leads to the character slowly gaining back control, breaking the curse or whatever. alternatively, if you’re related to the devil himself, you could have the character kill their lover, and then right after they’ve killed them, they snap out of it, dropping the knife to the ground, in pure shock as they watch their lover’s dead body fall to the ground ? you guys wanted angsty prompts it’s not my fault also i’ve done this to my own character welcome to hell
i might make a part two

my copy of wuthering heights arrived and the previous owner left some notes behind
can we PLEASE make friendship love stories a thing????
I’m talking centre of the plot, big gesture, chasing-after-them-in-the-rain-to-make-a-dramatic-love-confession, “you are my person”, platonic soulmates love stories.
I want love stories written like love stories, about platonic relationships.
my dreams show me what i really want. it's you.
why it's still you after all this time?
i’m going to sleep & not waking up until i'm in my mid twenties and in the arms of my lover who reads poetry to me everyday while we watch the sunset and i'm completely at ease and safe and warm

*There are a lot more learning websites out there, but I picked the ones that are, as far as I’m aware, completely free and in my opinion the best/ most useful.

My parental issues made me a little too attached to this fictional character part 5789
Nuwanda wakes up every day and proudly declares "fuck gender, fuck authority, and above all, fuck me."
I hate it when people expect me to be on my best behaviour all the time. Bitch, I was up late crying over a book character and I have a million assignments to submit. I'm not in the mood to listen to you or give validation
is it FUNNY BUT ONLY TO YOU AND A FEW SELECT MUTUALS?
is it USELESS?
is it a COMPLAINT?
will it KILL YOUR FUTURE CAREER?
WAIT GUYS I JUST NOTICED SOMETHING
okay so during the “i’m being chased by walt whitman” scene, when cameron comes in talking about his homework, charlie is already playing the drums in the back. so now i am left to assume that charlie was playing the drums while cameron was trying to do his homework and aiejjwiakejjr i honestly love their dynamic a lot
that last one was to far
don't mess with the dps fandom, we're like 8 and will cry if we see snow.

Charlie Dalton would have been standing underneath the bridge making a TikTok before being knocked out by the deskset.
i love this
yr locked in a room alone with three adult men but you feel perfectly safe. who are they
i love the fact ethan auditioned for neil and robert did for todd bcoz that was both of their irl personalities. and I love how peter weir (was it him?) decided they should play their opposing characters because todd becomes confident by the end and neil dosent have the strength or hope to stay on; so what I’m trying to say is their irl personalities come out by the end of the movie and that makes it all the more better and more realistic.
want
I decided this would be fun. So reblog with a new word and see how long we can make it.
The starting word is…
Lady
Oscar Wilde. That's all.
Professor: *puts an Oscar Wilde quote on the board and asks us to say whether or not we agree with it and why*
Me, choking back tears at having to say this: I...agree with Oscar Wilde
i had already given up on doing astrophysics and then this shows up to me and basically i'm back into wanting to do this major, even if i don't like math. :) good luck to me i guess.
going to class and your professor talking fondly about the "wonderful feeling after the elevator cable snaps while you're in it"
said professor then proceeding to play a rock song
on most days only expect 2-5 students in class even though we have 13
where did the others go?? nobody knows, maybe they were abducted by aliens
speaking of aliens
your other professor pausing class to talk about what would happen if we met them
and getting mildly upset that an asteroid is no longer headed towards earth
cats

nobody in the department sleeps
don't be alarmed when your professor goes to the group chat at 3am to talk about whatever

your professor saying odd things like
"this is just some weird image of two people about to die- but anyway, spacetime"
the astronomers of the school are also the astrologers
setting up in the lounge reading people's birth charts and astro cards
having to sneak through the back of the building because our id cards never work
sitting in the observatory with the lights off waiting for the professor to get there
planning to bring your hallmates to the planetarium to impress them
did i mention the cats?
meow
why do we have things that glow?

idk might make a pt. 2 or not
I love that Donna Tartt wrote this cautionary tale about how we shouldn't let our hubris rule us and how literature can bend our minds, and all of us are like "You know what I wanna do? Throw a bacchanal"
