John Watching Arthur Get Sick Is So Heartbreaking To Me

john watching arthur get sick is so heartbreaking to me

arthur was probably always so.. big to john, taller, broader, bigger. he can run while carrying deer, lasso wild horses, fight men twice his size, an unstoppable force.

he'd probably of thought that there was nothing that could truly stop arthur, that in his eyes, he would always be his big brother, a man could intimidate those around him with his mere presence, casting a wide and tall shadow on those near him, on john.

so imagining john seeing this, mountain of a man, unable to walk without crumbling to the floor, coughing up blood, getting weaker, thinner, smaller, something john likely never thought would be feasible - i often wonder what would have gone through his head, would he deny what he was seeing, burying his head into the sand, not accepting what was right in front of him?

if arthur had let him see, let him know, like he had with charles, that he was dying, would it have changed anything? would he have fought harder, on top of that hill? would he have insisted on getting arthur help, so that he could get through this and survive, refusing to believe that his brother was dying - til he was forced to accept the inevitable?

or did he know, and that there was no changing arthurs mind - knowing that arthur had accepted his death the moment he learned he was sick? that on that hill, that would have been the last time his big brother would ever cast his wide and tall shadow ever again?

"If you use em dash in your works, it makes them look AI generated. No real human uses em dash."

Imaging thinking actual human writers are Not Real because they use... professional writing in their works.

Imagine thinking millions of people who have been using em dash way before AI becomes a thing are all robots.

man, throwing down his sword in outraged disgust: No! This is not what I signed up for! There are limits to how low even someone such as I is willing to sink.

me, pausing in the middle of loading another hostage into the trebuchet: Dude I asked you what you want to do, and you said that you don't care, and that you're down for anything for as long as we're hanging out.

Next installment of Lord of the Rings AU: It's Fine, Everybody's Fine is Aragorn's coronation, at which Boromir W E E P S:

Next Installment Of Lord Of The Rings AU: It's Fine, Everybody's Fine Is Aragorn's Coronation, At Which

I think in a circumstance where Boromir lives, or even just in interacting with Faramir in canon, Aragorn would be very aware of the optics of striding in out of the wilderness to take a throne that the line of stewards had been fighting and dying for in his absence (Thorongil cosplay aside). Cool thing is, in this AU, seeing the king's throne filled and experiencing Gondor at peace for the first time in living history is more than Boromir EVER hoped for.

The day the White Tree sapling blooms, Aragorn wakes up Faramir and Boromir like a six-year-old on Christmas:

And then there's that FIRST SUNRISE over the Mountains of Shadow, when day breaks over a defeated east that's clean and clear and Boromir WEEPS AGAIN because he NEVER THOUGHT he'd see such a thing and YES this is a THIRST TRAP why do you ASK

Hell yeah I gave him a tattoo, it's the seven stars of Gondor plus a coastal rockrose that grows in sandy soils along the Mediterranean because I figure that's like Dol Amroth in honor of HIS MOM because I LOVE SYMBOLISM

during occasions where Batman is really needed and Dick and Bruce are both unavailable for some reason, they have to call up Jason because he's the only other one of the bats that will properly fill out the suit. Bruce hates these occasions. Not because he doesn't want Jason to be Batman, but because Jason uses these opportunities to fuck with Batman's reputation as. much. as. possible.

while in the suit, he referred to 'himself' as the JLA's sugar daddy on live TV, and Bruce is still having to deal with it to this day. one time Bruce threatened Jason that he couldn't have guns on him while Batman, and Jason proceeded to leave his guns at the cave only to show up to the fight brandishing multiple giant water guns which he shot at police officers and nobody else. he flexes his arms and does 'sexy superheroine' poses every time he spots a camera aimed at him, even if he's in the middle of fighting somebody. he acts like he's best friends with the Flash. every. time.

Bruce wants to die inside. Dick quite honestly finds it fuckin hysterical, and he keeps trying to get into accidents whenever HE'S supposed to be Batman so that Jason has to do it instead.

Bruce tries to bribe Jason with money. Jason accepts the money. Jason does not stop. Bruce does not get his money back.

a door that says "TL4J AU comic by @kazoosandfannypacks"
the door bursts open, featuring an angry-looking ahsoka tano. she screams "HAVEN'T YOU PEOPLE EVER HEARD OF THE JEDI CODE?'
Cal Kestis, Luke Skywalker, and Ezra Bridger look up from their seats on either edge of a couch and relaxing on a beanbag chair, respectively.
Cal asks "what do you mean?" while Luke mutters an "uhhhhh" and Ezra confidently says "nope!"
Ahsoka glares. "Literally just look at you guys!" she says
she points at Cal (who, it should be noted, is wearing a slightly different hairstyle and poncho than in his last panel) and says "YOU MARRIED A NIGHTSISTER!"
Luke glances away, whistling, as Ahsoka points at him and yells "YOU FELL IN LOVE WITH A SITH ASSASSIN!"
She then points at Ezra Bridger, who is unmoved from his comfortable slumpling in hia beanbag chair as she yells "AND HE'S DATING A MANDALORIAN!"
Ahsoka then yells, with her words covering the whole panel, "AM I THE ONLY JEDI IN THE GALAXY WHO HASN'T FALLEN IN LOVE WITH ONE OF OUR ORDER'S SWORN ENEMIES?"
"You???" Cal asks, notably again with a different hair and outfit, "didn't you have a thing for that Separatist senator's son?"
The panel features a close-up of Ahsoka's face, as Luke and Ezra share a word-bubble from off screen that says "WHAT?" and Cal's word bubble clarifies. "Yeah, back in the Clone Wars! What was his name? Lex? Lax? Lux?"
Ahsoka, sweating, looks away nervously. "Uh, nevermind. Forget I mentioned anything. Carry on."

Brought to you by the unhinged thought of "what if merrical, skyjade, and sabezra were all canon in stealingpotatoes' The Last 4 Jedi AU?" (Credit for the au goes to stealingpotatoes, but I'm not gonna tag her because I'm pretty sure she doesn't ship sabezra.) Anyways, here's a comic about it. I don't think Ahsoka, the galaxy's biggest lowkey canon anidala shipper, would genuinely react this way, but I thought it was a funny scenario to draw out.

Bonus: original concept sketch of the second panel:

A 5Ɨ7 index card featuring a drawing of ahsoka, kicking a door open, head back, mouth open, screaming, her pointy teeth and bugged eyes obvious.
