Fruits Basket is wild because the premise is "Haha! Wow! These Pretty Anime Men turn into Animals when theyre hugged and then when they turn back they're NAKED!!! 😳😳😳 ehe silly anime!" but then you watch it and its like. Every Character on this show is physically, financially, and emotionally controlled by one person with immeasurable wealth and power. the main characters stories revolve around their slow recovery from the trauma of physical/verbal abuse, sexual manipulation, and neglect. there's a love triangle that isnt even about Who Gets The Girl, but rather each individual's growth as a human being, understanding that they are worthy of love and compassion, that there are people in this world who will love them, unconditionally, and that they DESERVE to be loved. love EXISTS and nothing about them makes them unworthy of whole, unbiased love. that realization is a pivotal part of their healing and it's a central theme of the show that comes up for each and every character, whose own journeys follow that same thread of healing past wounds with compassion, love, and friendship.
and then they like. barely ever turn into animals.
It's all I know how to do.

Oh God if only this dating app would stop suggesting my ex boyfriend.

I finally realized it today, you are never going to leave her.
No matter how much I love you. No matter who I walk away from.
You are never, ever going to be mine.

You play slow and I wonder if you are drinking tonight
If you have drank enough to kiss her the way you kissed me
If you have drank enough to tell me you love me one more time

I dreamed of you last night; interspersed with the nightmares, weaving in and out of different kinds of terror.
I dreamed of finding the messages I sent, all the things I've been holding back, all the things I think but never say, I dreamed of finding them sent in my sleep, oh beg your pardon for my slip of the finger but I can't take it back now.
I was secretly disappointed to realize it was only a dream.
