About: Heather. 29. Graduate student/complete bum. Bookworm. Whovian. Storm lover. Avoidant, but still love people. Recently moved back to Sweden to study a masters program in history at Uppsala University. I reblog a lot, mostly things that I find awesome/thought provoking/funny, but I have a strange sense of humor so your results may vary.

You said “I love you” like it was an apology

stephaniehartwig:

You said “I love you” like it was an apology.

It was as if your brain and mouth couldn’t quite agree on whether to say that or “I’m so fucking sorry.”

Because you’d come to discover that love was an aching sort of happiness. Broken and somehow whole at the same time, and it makes you feel undeserving and small.

“Fan fiction is what literature might look like if it were reinvented from scratch after a nuclear apocalypse by a band of brilliant pop-culture junkies trapped in a sealed bunker. They don’t do it for money. That’s not what it’s about. The writers write it and put it up online just for the satisfaction. They’re fans, but they’re not silent, couchbound consumers of media. The culture talks to them, and they talk back to the culture in its own language.” —

This is probably the best, non-judgmental description of fan fiction I’ve ever heard of in main stream media.
