“you don’t start anything you can’t finish. you’re not the person who buys the stationary bike as part of a new year’s resolution, then uses it as a coatrack for three years. you’re not the kind of woman who only works hard when it feels good, or only shows up when it’s convenient. if someone insults one of your clients, those fancy kid gloves of yours come off, and you carry your own pen at all times, because if you’re going to have to write anything, it might as well look good. you read the last page of books first—don’t make that face, stephens.” he cracks a smile in one corner of his mouth. “i’ve seen you—even when you’re shelving, you sometimes check the last page, like you’re constantly looking for all the information, trying to make the absolute best decisions.”

@storyseekers event 14: book to read to understand me

like - okay, I dated this girl who was an artist, right? and she’d do figure drawing where she’d draw the negative space around a person first, and then fill in the person. and that’s how I’m trying to look at it. maybe I don’t know what fills it in yet, but I can look at the space around where I sit in the world, what creates that shape, and I can care about what it’s made of, if it’s good, if it hurts anyone, it makes people happy, if it makes me happy. and that can be enough for now.

Fernando Pessoa, The Book of Disquiet

[bookhappened]

Yadriel was drawn to him like a moth to a flame.

[ID: Three still images in black and white. Each is overlaid with a gif of snow falling and a quote from Cemetery Boys by Aidan Thomas.

Image one: A cemetery bathed in grey light. There is one skeletal tree, bare of leaves, and the clouds obscure the sky. Only the tops of the graves are visible. The quote says “Is Yadriel your friend?”.

Image two: A blank white background with the silhouette of two hands. The hands are blurred, ghostly, and reach for each other. The quote says “the words burned”.

Image three: The silhouette of two boys. Their noses touch as they lean in, one boy’s mouth parted in anticipation. The quote says “’Mi querido!’ He snapped viciously”. END ID]
