Halbrand in his armor + his dirty grimy face

WIP WEDNESDAY

In which Halbrand is a recently disgraced priest, Galadriel writes smutty romance novels, and they spend several days crossing the country by train to make it home in time for Christmas.

She makes him feel covetous. Sinful in his very existence. She makes him feel like the kind of man he'd been told he could never escape becoming - lecherous and lustful, falling easily to the wiles of the more dazzling sex.

And then he thinks he doesn't mind so much. If she is to be the proverbial stumbling block in his path, then he is already on his knees. Already, he has fallen below concerns of what is righteous and true. He looked at the thousand little sins of his life and thought, "So what?" and also, "What else?"

Because if he is going to turn aside - and he has, and he will, and maybe he will never stop looking at the choices before him and weighing the path of happiness corporeal against the path to happiness eternal and finding eternity wanting - he wants it to matter.

He'd left his pulpit under an avalanche of a thousand little lies, but now it seemed he needed something more. A declaration of intent on the road into darkness. If he intends to cast aside all he knew and all he once craved, to go in a blaze of glory seems fitting.

And she would be glorious, pinned beneath him with skin or ivory and hair of gold and lips like the bud of a rose. She would be worth the final nail in his coffin, a fitting footnote to a fall from grace.

The devil wears pastel and calls him darling in a voice that sounds like summer rain and makes temptation beguiling. No better than Adam, he'd lick the juice of the fruit from her skin, suckle the promises from her breast, join her in devastation until he forgot the face of God.

Poll: i’m curious as to how others dry clothes. In europe its very common to air dry clothes outside. Yet in the usa i hear dryers are most used yet the weather seems like it would do a good job and be better for environment.

How do you dry your washing/laundry?

Outside on a line (when weather allows)

On a airer/clothes horse inside

In a tumble dryer
