“the one that is extinguished will shine brighter than the comets flying over the planet”

I was out this this cute girl and I think we were really hitting it off, then she asked what kind of comics I make. I told her, and then as she looked at them on her phone, recognition came over her face.
Her: "oh...OH MY GOD... ARE YOU THE BIKE CUCK GUY???"
Me: "Y-yeah..."
Her: "HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!"
Her: "WAIT, HOLD ON, I GOTTA SHOW MY FRIENDS THIS."
She asked the people at the table behind us if she could borrow one of their phones for a second to pull up something on the browser. Then she held their phone somewhat in front of hers and took a photo of me along with it.
I never asked for the photo so here is my approximate recreation of what I think it looked like:
She was busy texting seemingly all of her friends as we finished our meals and stood up, when I decided to pipe up again.
Me: "Um, y-you know wh-what would make the happiness in the world increase..."
She looked up from her phone with a sly smile.
Her: "What?"
Me: "I-if...if we k-- um, kissed..."
Her amused smile slowly descended into an absolutely indiscernible neutral expression.
then, after a pause
it rose again into a smile
Her: "You... are so cute. Close your eyes. I have a surprise for you."
I closed my eyes tight, and gently puckered my lips, bracing for a kiss.
Then she slapped my ass so hard that there is still a palm print on it.
Here’s a dump of random things for procreate, wips and sketches
WHOA!!!!! i love my friends' ocs
I think the most radical thing the hunger games does is tell young people that the most revolutionary thing you can do is have unconditional love for humanity. Katniss throughout the entire series is guided by a deep sense of compassion for the people around her. It is what causes her to volunteer, to bury rue, to mercy kill cato, its why she tries to save peeta, why finnick telling her to remember who the real enemy is works, and even though her compassion for the larger world falters when peeta is kidnapped, it comes back when she visits hospitals and asks for mercy for other victors and ultimately, it is love and belief in a better humanity that makes her kill coin. Through it all, she maintains an unfaltering belief in the fundemental goodness of humanity, which is diametrically opposed to dr gaul's and snow's worldview. Peeta is even more unwaveringly compassionate
So the series tells young people that the most revolutionary thing you can be is compassionate. Let compassion drive your politics. Let yourself believe in the fundemental goodness of people. And i think that's deeply important in a world that touts the superiority of pure reason or logic, to allow yourself to be guided by something as emotional as compassion. Katniss everdeen tells us that your politics should be rooted in compassion in a world that thinks detatchment or cynicism is intelligence and i think thats v cool
You know how it is. You were hit by a truck or fell from a great height, and now you're trapped in a fantasy land! Quick, spin this wheel to find out what you've reincarnated as!
Remember to show this to all your friends :)
