Can’t stop thinking about how attack on titan is not a romance but how its narrative hinges upon the most devastating love stories I’ve encountered in fiction.
How Ymir and Historia cling to each other under the burden of a crown they didn’t ask for.
How Eren, the definition of an “attack” protagonist does anything and everything for Armin, who shrinks away from violence (despite having to become the embodiment of war).
How Erwin gave Levi the sky, and it is a debt that Levi knows he can never repay.
How subtly yet thoroughly they work Moblit into every scene, a step behind Hanji, cautioning them and supporting them, so that you don’t even notice him until he’s gone.
How Mikasa’s “Akerbond” to Eren goes so much further, so much deeper, because he exhibited such raw, unfettered inhumanity in the name of protecting her when she was a child, when he barely even knew her, and that is all she knows of love.
How Connie feels like he’s lost half of himself with Sasha gone.
How much Carla loved her son.
How much of an impact Marco made on Jean.
How Armin could eat Bertoldt’s love for Annie and have it latch onto his own admiration of her.
How Marlowe thought of Hitch as he was dying.
How Reiner keeps going for the kids he has to mentor.
How Falco put himself between Gabi and danger over and over again.
How violently Sasha’s family mourned but how reverent of her spirit they were to forgive her killer.
Idk man I just think for a show that started off as kids fighting giants and turned into “my war crime is worse than your war crime”, it is driven almost entirely by unique, poignant and thoroughly convincing love stories.
We are going out of the woods only with 1989 (Taylor's Version)
If they all go away, so will all the hatred. Everyone who was trying to kill us will be crushed flat, leaving behind nothing but flat emptiness. The thing all those people overseas feared the most has come to pass. And it’s all because they decided we were devils and tried to kill us. So this is something they brought on themselves. Just the consequences of their own actions. Right?

𝗗𝗲𝗳𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗝𝗮𝗰𝗼𝗯 is one of the books that I wanted to read for a long time but it never happened until now when appletv released the mini web series. And I promised myself I will watch the series after reading the book what is happening right now. I loved the book and no, till now It's not finished, I just reached the knife scene and long way to go!!! For me the book is a little bit more descriptive than I prefer like the narrator ( Andy Barbar) thinks a lot in his mind.
I love recommending books to people but most of them are not interested at all. So, I'm asking to the people's of book community to recommend me new books or your favorite books. And Did anyone like the miniseries? Was the adaption good? Let me know !

The life is crazy, messy, chaotic & what not but I'm still sailing because small moments like this makes life and all the hard work paid off! Hope you've a good day and wishing you a very good week ahead. ☺
Here's a picture of pretty sky from my roof! Enjoy and also Happy Pride Month :)
"Name one hero who was happy"-
Heroes are warriors whose hands are painted red with the blood of thousand of innocent people. Maybe that's why they turned mad. Maybe that's why they never got a happy ending.
I don't care if people ship Jonsa, but stop stealing content from Jonrya and somehow making it about Sansa when it's actually about Arya. And stop lying about Jon and Sansa's importance to each other.
Jon and Sansa rarely think about one another. Sansa thinks about Jon one time while pretending to be a bastard, and that was only after someone else brought him up. And that was the first time she thought about him since AGoT.
Jon, on the other hand, hardly thinks about Sansa either. It's Arya that he misses even more than Robb, and Arya who misses Jon the most out of all her siblings.
Jon compares Ygritte to Arya, not Sansa.
Jon wants to kill Ramsay for being betrothed to Arya, not Sansa.
Jon sends Mance to find the grey girl on a dying horse which was supposed to be Arya, not Sansa.
Jon was willing to forsake his vows to the Night's Watch for Arya, not Sansa.
Jon's favorite person in the world is Arya, and Arya's favorite person is Jon.
