One day I will learn not to get so emotionally invested. I will stop being drawn to broken characters, who sacrifice themselves without thought because they have no sense of self worth, who drown themselves in guilt whether its warranted or not, who believe everyone will be better off without them, who have nothing left to give but give it anyway. The ones who hide behind anger, or smiles that never reach their eyes, the ones who are shattered but hold the pieces together as long as they can, so the ones they care about don't see. One day, but certainly not today...because it's that type of character that hollows out my insides with a perfect kind of ache I can't let go...
I posted this on tumblr after Derek Hale feels happened, but felt like it needed repeating because I love far too many characters that make me cry...it can't be good for my health...
...and yes it's almost 2am (which is my excuse for not being able to find sad gifs for sherlock, Dean & Cas) and I have to work tomorrow, apparently one good nights sleep in a row is all I get at the moment.
edit: also...is it sad that typing up this post was apparently more important than pulling the blanket that fell off my feet 20minutes ago back into place, and now my toes feel like icicles? Yes?...okay then...
