Guy freezes his hair and it stands tall.

"I think we should eat the giant worm at the center of the earth. This would solve many problems."

"Sounds like poor circulation to me. A nervous issue, perhaps." It was not something he experienced much, in any case. He sometimes forgot to still his innards before settling in for a long sit, and that seemed to replicate it as near as he could tell. No harm done.

"Eh, better to get used to it. Most things rot."

"I didn't mean the rot feels still. The rot hurts. It's numb and prickly." She spoke with a sickly knowing. Even people that have once died, be it heart attack, drowning, hypothermic shock.. they could never truly speak to the pain.

The body must forget to move forward. Hel had no such instinct.

"Of rot?" Hel half laughed, "Creature after my own heart.."

"And were they?" He, too, dropped a pair of strawberries into the communal basket, one perfectly plump and the other shaped oddly like Beleg's nose.

"Smell ripe to me."

"Somewhere safe."

In his stomach.

Beleg picked a berry and placed it in basket, as if he had been doing that all along.

"Well... I had to double check they were ripe."

[nykrose]

"On the south side." The same side they liked to lounge on in the cold months. Let the sun grace them with what warmth and light she could spare.

"We could go on an adventure," he leaned in, conspiratorially. "A quest."

"I think we ought to bring some potted plants in. Evergreen. Or, maybe some of those exotic, equatorial types that grow year round. It will snow soon."

"I like the snow."

Beleg tapped his fingers against his arm, thinking. He loved the winter flowers, the hellebores and wintersweets. But it would be nice to have something inside the house too.

"That is is a good idea, though. Perhaps a few different kinds, by the windows."

001. under the mistletoe, placed sneakily above a doorframe. 002. in front of the fireplace, cuddled up under a blanket with a hot drink. 003. in a mountain lodge, snowed in from a heavy snow storm. 004. on an ice rink, careful to dodge the bustling crowd that stumble and rush past. 005. at a busy dinner table, food piled on the centre and family chaos ensuing around the house. 006. at a quiet dinner for two, an intimate meal and magical moment for a special couple. 007. standing in front of the christmas tree, decorating it with an assortment of baubles, lights and tinsel. 008. lifting up a smaller frame to put on the finishing touch on the christmas tree: the tree topper ( a star, an angel, or something else! ) 009. setting out the snacks for santa and his reindeers. don't forget the milk and cookies for christmas hardest workers! 010. in the kitchen making the deserts for the big day, and perhaps even making a mess too! 011. in the dining room building a home: a gingerbread home! decorate the home and make it one fit for a little gingerbread man. 012. at the mall, waiting in line to sit on santa's lap and spill your christmas gift wishes. will you be deemed naughty or nice? 013. sitting down with some company to wrap all the christmas gifts, preparing for the big day. 014. sitting down to exchange and open gifts, anticipating what gift you may get. is it something cool or just another pair of socks? 015. out on the streets doing christmas carolling, blessing the streets with the sweet voices of heavenly haromies. 016. in the snow rolling a big ball to build a snowman, bringing it to life with makeshift features and wrapping it up with a warm scarf. 017. in the trenches of snow forts, amidst a war of a snow fight! who will win? 018. falling into soft snow to create snow angels, flailing wildly on the ground. 019. traversing the treacherous conditions of icy pavements. will you laugh as they fall or lend them a hand and go down in solidarity? 020. jamming out to a christmas song, and inflicting the pain of holiday songs on someone else.

last night was a grim vision of what is yet to transpire

What I do for fun is far worse than creating horrors. But that’s for my free time, not everyone else.

every time I need to make a decision I flip a coin it falls in my mouth and I choke till I hallucinate the answer

"The Swimmer" Short animation thing I made a while ago.
