I Want To Angst, So Let's See...

i want to angst, so let's see...

"go to sleep, or else you'll be tired tomorrow."

"go to sleep," if read in the correct tone, is such a soft and loving statement.

"or else you'll be tired tomorrow." the quiet care. the thoughtfulness.

How to use this to angst:

add a pet name. e.g. "little one, sweetheart"

show, not tell the emotions/implications listed above. (the "quiet care" mc doesn't recognize until it isn't there anymore, the yearning, etc.)

make this a sweet memory amidst a bitter life.

make the person who said "go to sleep"

*drumroll*

ded

holy fuck.

Update: she's dry sobbing

So my sister just found out that AO3 will be down for 10 hrs in the near future and proceeded to make the most horrendous vocalisation of grief that should never come out of a human's mouth, comparable to that of a manatee getting a colonoscopy, and my mom heard her all the way across the house and, palpably concerned, asked her what was wrong.

She was like, "nothing."

Now that the time is right I will let you go. I may wish for you to stay, but I wish more for you to be happy. Goodbye, my love.
