I’ve always thought it’s charming how Pearl dances all the time, when walking, gesturing… even when she’s all alone. Seemingly just for the pleasure of it… dancing just for herself.

[id: screenshot of a tiktok that’s captioned ‘getting to the point in hyperfixations where you imagine them doing every mundane thing you’re currently doing’. the comment section is open slightly so we see a reply from an account named 'transspock’ that says 'Damn I’m drinking water… I bet Spock drinks water……’ this comment has been liked by the creator of the tiktok. /end id]
i think a lot about how it is such a common experience to withstand our deepest pains and sorrows on our own and never even shed a tear, then, the moment someone offers us comfort, we break down completely
sometimes being offered tenderness feels like the very proof that you’ve been ruined

it surprises me, how a gesture so small can feel so very big. how sometimes you don’t realize the nervousness or sadness you were holding deep inside until the touch of someone you love lets it all out of you, like your entire body is exhaling
