I might have said you'll pay for the wild & reckless hour,

 pay in the currency of sweat and shiver,

   the future squandered, the course

 of years reconfigured, relinquishment so

complete it's more utter than any falling in love. Falling

  instead in flames, burning tiles spiraling to litter

 the courtyards of countless places that will

   never be yours, the fingerprints,

 tossed gloves & glittering costumes, flared

cornices & parapets, shattering panes, smoked out

  or streaked with embers, the tinder of spools, such

 a savage conflagration, stupid edge-game,

   the way junkies tempt death,

 over & over again, toy with it. I might have

told you that. Everything you ever meant to be, pfft,

  out the window in sulphured matchlight, slow tinder

 & strike, possession purely ardent as worship

   & the scream working its way out

 of your bones, demolition of wall & strut

within until you’re stark animal need. That is

  love, isn’t it? Everything you meant to be falls

 away so you dwell within a perfect

   singularity, a kind of saint.

-Lynda Hull, The Only World, from “Suite for Emily”

the other night i tried to make a curry and i got chilli burns all over my face, so i thought to myself ‘hang on, doesn’t milk soothe chilli burns? it does’ and i couldn’t google because i couldn’t see so i just had to blindly feel my way to the fridge and pour out a bowl of milk, and then plant my face in the bowl of milk, anyway at that point the rice cooker went off and triggered a power surge which turned my electricity off, which i didn’t notice at first because i had my face in a bowl of milk and when i did emerge from the dairy prison i thought i had gone blind with chilli burns. so no i don’t really cook much.

YAAAAAAAAAAAS KNITE.

Here’s a sneak peak of the new character design of Sen for the remastered version Knite. All the characters start out older in this new version of the story, and the entire plot will have a darker and more mature theme. I’ll be revealing more designs soon! And also posting previews of the next Fisheye Placebo chapter!

For those not familiar with Knite, you can read the super old version here http://yuumei.deviantart.com/art/Knite-Chapter-1-151132545

Because men with hard faces do violent things, because fanaticism seizes and shrinks minds, is no reason for the rest of us to abandon our songs. Maybe we need to sing them louder.

What do I say to a man who knows how I think and still sleeps next to me with the lights off? To a man who asks me the questions that help me find my way? . . . What do I say about us? Two words.

It's only after a man is dead and you take the trouble to piece together his meaningful moments and reflect on them that you can know him.
