If by one sight alone, I could divine The secrets of the sisterhood we share It is: your face by torchlight, soft like mine Smoke-smudged, pine garland woven in your hair Your dancing body pressed up close and hot Joy in the gifts the goddesses can bring While the soil breathes out the stench of rot Where next year's life from last year's seeds will spring How else can I describe the sacred hours The mysteries of our own holy days But: slaughter is the thing that brings forth flowers And every flower, at the last, decays I sing praise to the queens of death and growth In my ear you whisper, "Why not both?"
I wrote a sonnet for the second day of two-bees escapril; the prompt was "thesmophoria".
You are a person who covers your counter space in clutter and inadvertently makes a shrine to a long forgotten god who shows up to thank you.
"I like your stupid face. It’s so stupid. It’s so… I like it. Can I touch it?"
"You're all I ever wanted. I'm sorry I can't say it sober."
"I can't wait for the room to stop spinning, so I can focus on your face again."
"I would love to hear those words in any other place than this bathroom, holding your hair back."
"You're cute. And a bit blurry. But definitely always so cute."
"I think I love you." "And I would love to answer you accordingly, but I think I would appreciate it more when you’re actually able to understand my answer."
"Don't tell my sober me that I told you I love you. It was a secret."
"I…I want to give you my heart. It belongs to… to you. How… how can I give it to you? I don’t want it anymore." "Let’s wait until tomorrow with the surgery."
"Oh I'm dreaming of you again. If I wouldn't be dreaming and if you would be really here, then I would tell you I love you."
"I love you. But that's a secret. So I won't tell you about it."
"You're drunk." "Yes. And hopelessly in love with you."
"I'm seeing you twice. Oh, now I can give all my love to even more of you."
"Say that again after two coffees at least and I will be yours."
"You're so adorable. I want to pick you up and never let you down."
"I've always loved you. But I will never tell you."
"This is not a dream, I think. In my dreams we're usually kissing."
"I’m not drunk. Can a drunk person do this?" "You’re not doing anything." "But… I sent you my love. Did you… did you not get it?"
"Can you keep a secret? I am madly in love with you. But psshh."
"I fell in love with you." "No, you fell down the stairs. You should really learn to hold your liquor."
"You're so perfect. How can anyone be so perfect? Maybe you're just a dream."

In the spirit of encouraging people to comment on fanfics while also making it easier to do so, I feel obliged to share a browser extension for ao3 that has quite literally revolutionized the comment game for me.
I present to you: the floating ao3 comment box!
From what I've seen, a big problem for many people is that once you reach the comments at the bottom of a fic, your memory of it miraculously disappears. Anything you wanted to say is stuck ten paragraphs ago, and you barely remember what you thought while reading. This fixes that!
I'll give a little explanation on the features and how it works, but if you want to skip all that, here's the link.
The extension is visible as a small blue box in the upper left corner.
(Side note: The green colouring is not from the extension, that's me.)
If you click on it, you open a comment box window at the bottom of your screen but not at the bottom of the fic. I opened my own fic for demonstrative purposes.
The website also gives explanations on how exactly it functions, but I'll summarize regardless.
insert selection -> if you highlight a sentence in the fic it will be added in italics to the comment box
add to comment box -> once you're done writing your comment, you click this button and the entire thing will automatically copied to the ao3 comment box
delete -> self explanatory
on mulitchapter fics, you will be given the option to either add the comment to just the current chapter or the entire fic
The best part? You can simply close the window the same way you opened it and your progress will automatically be saved. So you can open it, comment on a paragraph, and then close it and keep reading without having the box in your face.
Comments are what keep writers going, and as both a writer and a reader, I think it's such an easy way of showing support and enthusiasm.
im not waiting to see the whole event story its so cute and i love them
(rbs appreciated!)
Izutsumi in a traditional persian dress!! Her ears poking from under the veil is so cute to me
Sort of talked about this in my last post but ! I really want to see more persian representation in media, specifically animation. Really disheartening when most of the "popular" animated movies taking place in west asia are about war, revolution or just generally orientalist D: Hopefully one day that'll change !!
But till that happens >:) ill make my own representation
here in the storm, i found peace in you
The opposite of a mansion murder mystery where everyone present is a bounty hunter who really wants to take credit for the murder and the detective has to find out who really did it
