"I never imagined anyone could love me. The concept seemed so irrational. I never believed in love."

"I can never imagine not loving you." He lightly kissed her shoulder. "To me, that is irrational."

[sweeetnothingss]

these dating apps are stupid. where is my academic rival who 3 years later of meeting me, confesses in a love letter, that I'm the fond object of all their desires and the keeper of the key to their heart? where is the lover who builts a fire just to keep me warm? where is the person who secretly reads my favourite books and gets so invested in them just because they observed my bright enthusiasm about them? where is the person who lays in the grass with me to discuss an impromptu script while also talking about our general interests and knows that in the end we're gonna end up with each other? where is the person who gives up the opportunity to have an iPod in exchange of a teapot that contains lil inside jokes we've had going on since years? where is the person who runs to the station just to take me to the place which captures the most enchanting sunrise before i leave the city forever? where is the person who sings their favourite songs with me in a train with a shared earphone? where is the person who saves their dirtiest jokes for me while i save a seat on every table for them? where is the person who after knowing my flaws and fears, says yes to running away with me? where is the person who would come out of Eden to open the door for me if they knew i were there? where is the person who makes me realise that our joy is so bright I cannot see anything beyond it? where's the person who'd choose to hang out with me in every universe? who's going to take me to the lakes where all the poets went to die? where is the bestfriend who looks at me in the eyes and says "this thing we're doing here, me, you- i just want you to know I'm in. I'm all in." and means it!?

There's nothing quite like the bond between a girl and her comfort show—whether it concluded long ago, aired before she discovered it, or was tragically cut short.

I’m just sayin they’d be best friends.

these characters exist on some sort of a spectrum, but I have yet to figure out what exactly that spectrum is

Oh, Happy Day! Just got this selfie of My Lord and Master, Mr. Tobias Menzies from one of the Team!

She went to see him in the play "The Hunt" at St. Ann's Warehouse, Brooklyn, New York. She's letting me post it with my watermark on it. She said he was so nice, very handsome, and taller than she expected! Of course he was. ❤️😍

Imma pretend baby was looking at me that way, all smiley-eyed, looking adorable. 😍

I woke up being Tobiazed and I'm smiling from ear to ear. Let's see if I get any more deets about the encounter and/or the play. Like I told my friend, I'd forgotten she was going to see him. Had I remembered, I would have given her some "instructions" 😉.

Off to try to tame my racing heart...

“‘What big teeth you have,’ the girl said next. To which the wolf answered, ‘the better to eat you with.’” Vincent snarled and seized her shoulders.

Heat flared low in her body at his touch. Lydia shivered as she looked up at him. A trick of the moonlight made his teeth appear sharp and deadly. A gasp tore from her throat as he lunged forward. For a moment it seemed he was going to bite her.

She wanted him to.

Instead, his lips caressed her neck as he whispered, “Then the wolf swallowed her whole.”

Liquid tremors wracked her form. She reached up to cling to his shoulders, to beg for more. Vincent stepped back, leaving her to grasp at the air.

Shielding her embarrassment at her reaction, she managed a small giggle. He’d only been telling a story, after all. “In the version my mother told me, the girl got away.”

“Yes, that would be best.” His voice sounded rough. “She should get away.”

Wood Engraving Wednesday

ANNE DESMET

English printmaker Anne Desmet (b. 1964) is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Painter-Printmakers (RE) and the Society of Wood Engravers (SWE), and is only the third wood engraver elected to the Royal Academy of Arts in its entire history. This engraving, Brooklyn Bridge: New Day (2015) pays homage to one of her major influences, British artist Edward Wadsworth (1889-1949) and is printed from the original block in 2020 Vision: Nineteen Wood Engravers, One Collector, and the Artists Who Inspired Them, printed in 2020 by Patrick Randle’s Nomad Letterpress at the Whittington Press in Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, in an edition of 340 copies for the 100th anniversary of the Society of Wood Engravers. Of her wood engravings, Desmet writes:

Many of my engravings are in evolving series to suggest time, change, metamorphosis and evolution. My Brooklyn Bridge (2015) series of seven prints charts nights and days of snowy weather I experienced in New York in 2014. The bridge's complex engineering structure and viewing angle with a vanishing-point perspective reflect my appreciation of Wadsworth's emphatic compositions. . . . I offer . . . Brooklyn Bridge: New Day . . . in homage to Wadsworth. Wordsworth described 'gradually being able to evolve something of printmaking . . . which in my opinion is very suitable for an expression of form and structure' . . . . I too find print techniques admirably well-suited to express 'form and structure' and, in particular, to architectural themes . . . which have preoccupied me these last three decades.

Ann: You think my judgment’s clouded because I like Shiho a little bit? She's my best friend!

Makoto: You just doodled your wedding invitation.

Ann: Oh no, that’s our joint tombstone.

Makoto:... Oh

Nicky, absolutely done with Pepper Ann and Milo: I am offended. I am angry. I am very tired. So I'm gonna take a nap, but when I wake up, oh are you both in for it.

Milo, after she leaves: I'm actually shaking what do we do-
