my-own-heroJust stumbled upon your blog and I love it already! Aahhh, Nikita's season finale was just way too much for me to handle. Incredible would be an understatement. I just can't believe I have to wait for 1242328 months before season 3 ):
Awww, thank you! (Thanks for following too! <3 ) And I KNOW, RIGHT? As far as season finales (on the brink of cancellation - so freaking glad that didn’t happen!) go, it surpassed everything I expected and fell right into beyond epic territory. I still can’t believe everything that happened… well, happened. And I’m really impressed with the initiative the writers took too. I mean, how many shows only at the end of its second season will decide to kill off major characters, and do it in a way that the characters die simply because they have run their course, and not for “dramatic effect”. And those characters were so essential too, but I never felt like they were killed off for the sake of being killed off, but because the writers know what they’re doing, and where they’re taking this story. Haha, sorry for gushing. I actually feel like rewatching all of Nikita all over again, even though it’s just ended and there are still SO MANY months to go waiting for season three! (HOW WILL WE SURVIVE?)
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 1 // behind the scenes.
↳ I’ll follow you into the dark - Jilly.
for today-is-pi.
I’m sorry I can only write sad stuff D:
I still think we should just disapparate, James”, Lily said, as they finished packing up the rest of their clothes. Outside, the Potters could hear the song of kids playing, laughing and running around with not a care in the world; if only they knew what could be lurking in the shadows…
chill went down her spine and she hugged Harry tightly, feeling his heartbeat against her chest. He was calm - much more calm than any child would be under so much pressure. While they’ve been ruining around all day grabbing all they could reach, Harry had stood still in his playpen, watching in utter silence. Only now Lily had wrapped her arms around him, just to make sure he wouldn’t leave.
“You know we can’t.” James’ voice broke. He leaned against the wall, that pressure over his chest taking control once again. “Last time they were onto us five minutes later. And we can’t risk disapparating with Harry with us.”
When he heard his name, Harry tilted his head even so slightly, his hand clutching Lily’s. Downstairs, they heard the sound of the door unlocking.
“Maybe it’s Sirius”, James said, more hopeful than he should be. They had been waiting for Sirius and his bike for the last couple of minutes, but so far there was no sign of his old friend.
For a moment it occurred to James that they may have gotten to Six first - Bellatrix had been on the hunt for his little cousin for a couple of months now and she wasn’t trying really hard to hide it. ‘Please God, let them not have reached Sirius’, James whispered under his breathe, as left the room, the wand on his hand. He was still hoping it was the right Black (or Remus - or even Peter), but luck wasn’t on his side.
“Lily, take Harry and go! It’s him! Go! Run! I’ll hold him off!” He yelled, running downstairs, the wand ready. He knew it would only gain them a couple of seconds; he knew there was little to no chance of getting off alive.
But he wouldn’t go down without a fight.
“It’s this dumb thing that Ross made up ‘cause he was trying to fool our parents. It’s a way of giving the finger, without actually having to give it.”
If he could learn to love another, and earn her love in return by the time the last petal fell, then the spell would be broken. If not, he would be doomed to remain a beast for all time. As the years passed, he fell into despair and lost all hope. For who could ever learn to love a beast?
BEAUTY AND THE BEAST (1991)
“That being said, I do hate it when the fans hate Mamoru without looking at his awesome manga!counterpart. It’s rather unfair to him that the most popular media of Sailor Moon shines such a bad light on him. I really wish people would see him not as the cold, weak, and utter useless jerk he is in the anime but as probably one of the strongest characters in the manga—he’s seen his woman fight countless enemies and he’s been holding her hand the entire time.
And if anyone ever doubts his love, look at the Infinity Arc when he thinks Usagi killed herself. That ‘jerk’ held his future child and cried for the woman he loved when the world was crumbling all around them.”

Top 20 Cory and Shawn Moments (in no particular order)
“But we stayed together for the kids.” → It’s Not You, It’s Me
"Today defies explanation, but for me, life has never been explainable. It's been a lopsided, illogical, messy affair, where answers are in short supply, but maybe that's the way it is for everyone. Sometimes the fairness is all bunched up in one place, and all the injustice is bunched up in another, and sometimes it is all bunched up in the most improbable ways, but whatever you get, wherever you are, there are still moments that pin you to this world when you'd rather float away. Small, in-between moments, where there is magic and purpose and design and they are so perfectly beautiful they ache. Like all the in-between moments of today. Maybe the good guy doesn't always win. And maybe fairness doesn't always land where it should. But today felt good, deliciously and wonderfully good... And sometimes that's enough."
