In 1970, my mother's family adopted an intellectually disabled man named Horace. Horace was 56, and had been in an institution since 1921.
My uncle, who was 19, was working as an orderly at the institution where Horace lived. He only stayed a few months as the abuse he witnessed was too much for him. He had become friends with Horace and told him "I'll come back for you."
Horace replied "They all say that."
By that Christmas, Horace lived with my uncle and his family. My grandparents did the official adoption. Horace had never seen a Christmas tree, and that was his first real Christmas.
Horace died in 2010, at the age of 96. He laid down for a nap and just slipped away.
At least two generations of children grew up with him. He felt immortal to us. He loved Hot Wheels, pizza, cartoons and to talk to the portrait of my grandparents as he sat in his rocking chair.
He knew everyone's birthday. He loved unconditionally.
He had scars on his back from the institutions. If you asked him about that place, his face would screw up and he'd say "oh, it was a bad place. Bad place."
And for 40 years, he was safe, loved, and happy. He loved us in return.
No point to sharing this. But I still miss his laugh as he held a conversation with a portrait, whispering about his day to the people who had helped rescue him.

sick and tired of seeing these ace trainers brag about their super smart badass level 100 shiny mons.
This is Sol. She is a fucking idiot. She regularly forgets that she is a flying type and sits at the bottom of cabinets n such crying cause she doesn't know how to get up. I would die for her.
like not Kana because I think that Kana kinda represents the actual PC, but like if they had an older sibling. It would make that convo with their other kids much more interning than what they had in the game. Like if they had a unquie convo with the PC. wouldn't that be hella cool? Think about the possibilities! Depending on which route it is, it would be different!
If it was Conquest or Birthright, in like support convo C they would predict something that would happen 10 minutes later and every support convo from there there visions gets progressively longer and worse from there. And support convo A it they would see the deaths of either Xander & Elise or Ryoma killing himself/Takumi getting possessed or falling off the wall.
But in Revelations, the same thing would happen for C support, but for B & A it would be different.
For Support Convo B I think that they would predict an ambush that will happen in an hour and that helped save the group from completely dying.
And for support convo A it would give a little foreshadowing for the either the final battle or seeing the other dead royals.
I seriously wish that Nintendo went with the original idea for the game instead of fan service.
OP made this post unrebloggable but me and my bf made this meme in a fit of obsession and it had to be shared
