lars had loneliness carved onto him for as long as he could remember. some would say he was born with it. some would call it an heirloom, legacy of the ice in his veins. winter was desolation, so why would his child not be the same by extension? born alone, born lonely, the hollow existence he’d led thus far had been as familiar as it was predestined. or so he thought.

then the camp rewrote it all. amongst the other godlings, he was suddenly not alone. the new company felt like a reshaping of who he once was, a reformation of what he previously believed himself to be, and the change hurt. the act of carving out the old parts of him for new ones to replace them hurt.

but lars had learnt that to be loved was to be changed, even through the pain.

what he had now was worth a thousand icy agonies. friendship, camaraderie, and that one word he was afraid to say but felt whenever simon was around, they were all worth it. so the moment lars saw a scruffy new face in the mess hall, dining all by themselves, it was as though he had stumbled upon his own past self.

that past self had been so achingly lonely.

he felt his throat constrict itself full before he was walking over. not sauntering with ease but rather marching like a man towards the gallows, heavy footfalls that the other picked up on. lonely eyes met lonely eyes. he clenched his jaw and, after a pause, sat down unceremoniously in front of the man. “don’t make this more painful than it has to be,” the northman replied gruffly. “you’re new. can tell from how you’re lazing out here and eating dinner. most guys mostly spend their days sleeping out their wounds.” green as summer grass.

“been on your first quest?” lars asked.

it had dawned on him a long time ago that although he was rarely ever really alone, loneliness was still something that desperately clung to him. like nettlesome barnacles on an old hull. like the vague nostalgia from an old memory that couldn't be entirely remembered no matter how he tried. he wasn't sure when the feeling started, or if he had been carrying it around since he was born. but it shouldn't matter much anyway : figured out that loneliness was what you made of it ! more time for himself, more time to learn some new fishing knots, more time to go out to the lake and fish, more time to build new ship models, more time to read, more time... more time... more time... he could probably make all the plans in the world, read all the those stupid self-help books, tell himself whatever he needed to hear. but it still wouldn't change that at this very moment, he felt like a fucking loser eating alone while he watched everyone else talk to each other as if they had already spent an entire lifetime together. but it shouldn't matter much anyway, he thought to himself once more. everyone here must have felt like a fish out of water at some point. and this loneliness couldn't be anything special. he kept his head down for a moment, focused on finishing his meal or else he'd stuck in introspection. but his loneliness must have developed its own gravitational pull ────── didn't even notice someone enter his orbit until they were too close, until the other demigod casted a shadow over him. “ let me guess... the welcoming committee finally found me ? ” he deadpanned, looking up from his food to meet the other man's gaze. head tilted to the side, fiore quickly realized that the man before him probably wasn't cut out for a greeting party. he had one of those faces built for brooding in a corner rather than giving out over-enthusiastic tours. “ if you're looking for a place to sit, feel free. plenty of room. just be mindful of the ghosts keeping me company. ” impassive, almost impossible to tell that he was only joking if it weren't for the slight quirk of his lips after. @coldheartxd

Romeo could hear his phone going off in the distance. Wherever it was, he didn't know. Nor did he care.

It was Saturday night, and the last thing Romeo wanted was for anyone to kill his buzz. The week had felt especially long, what with his family coming down on him like hail, and he needed this. Needed it. And to think it was only the first week of December! Or was it the second week already?

Either way, Romeo loathed December.

Not only was it a month of 'holiday and good cheer' — something he'd never been particularly keen on joining, but the 31st marks his own birthday. Or what his father deems as "yet another reason to reflect on life". That had been the nicest way he's reminded Romeo of what little he's accomplished compared to his brother, Giovanni, without so many words. But oftentimes, he forgets to be nice at all.

"Hey man, are you gonna get that?" Aurelio asked from across the coffee table.

Romeo looked up from the powdery substance he was cutting with the sharp razor in his hand. "Huh?"

"Your phone," clapped Dante from beside him, chuckling heartily like it was the most obvious answer despite the loud music blaring from the speakers and drowning every other noise out.

"Fuck it. If it's important, they'll call again," Romeo muttered, brushing it off without a single care. Then, tightly rolling a dollar bill in his hand, he leaned forward to snort a line of cocaine. Inhaling deeply, he flicked the improvised straw onto the coffee table so he could lean back on his plush leather couch to bask in the drug and all its glory.

"What time is it?" He mumbled, eyes closed as he sipped lazily on his beer.

"Nine something," said Aurelio. "Nine forty-seven."

"We should get out of here," Romeo replied, downing the rest of his drink yet making no other move forward.

"Let's just finish this and we'll go," Dante suggested, taking a hit of coke for himself. "Where did you get this shit anyway?" he asked, rubbing at his nose as he sat up. "It's so fucking clean."

"I have a guy," Romeo answered simply, almost bored.

"A guy? Who's the guy?"

"Why the fuck would I tell you? You're just going to tell everybody and before you know it, this shit won't be exclusive anymore," Romeo muttered selfishly.

"Okay then," Dante retorted. "If it's only you who can get this shit, then get more of it."

Romeo rolled his eyes from beneath his closed eyelids. "Don't worry, fucker," he assured his friends. "Next week. I'll make sure to have it by then." Finally sitting up, Romeo took a deep breath and exhaled, running his hand through his hair. "I'm going to need a lot of it if I've to see my family for the fucking holidays."

[nicola-fiore]

I know what Lorenzo must be thinking: I'm crazy.

I saw it in his eyes when I first sought help to cover my tracks at the beginning of this year. I knew it was an impossible ask, to keep something so huge from our father, but I needed to leave Italy. I had spent too long there grieving for all the things I've lost. And I knew, deep down, that if I didn't leave then, I would've ended it all.

Italy no longer felt like home. It hadn't felt like one in a long time. It had become nothing more than an inescapable cage, a graveyard of nightmares on a loop.

I saw it in my brother's eyes again, the same "are you crazy?" look, when he came to my New York apartment days ago, breaking rules we've set in place, just to ensure I knew what I was doing.

I know he means well. I do. But this, on top of my overbearing father, is exactly why I couldn't take it anymore. The straw that broke the camel's back.

Because I do know what the hell I'm doing. And I'm not crazy for it.

Gio is my home, and I don't know how else to fucking explain it. I love him. I loved him then, I love him now, and I will always love him. Six years has not diminished any of it. If anything, time away has only intensified how strongly we feel for one another. Contrary to popular belief, Gio and I, we're so much bigger than a summer fling gone by. We are deeply entwined in each other's souls that no distance, time or death can keep us apart. A love like ours doesn't come very often, if at all. It's a love meant for the stars, so that our children and our children's children can look up one day and believe that standing by your love is the only way to stand.

And hell be damned if anyone tries to prove me wrong again.

[spiralailani]

who? @drystan-fiore where? One of the bars Fiore works at

Usually, Lailani avoids meeting Fiore while he is working. There is a subtle aftertaste of deceit that floats all around the young elvhen, but she is far too polite to address it most of the time. It’s harder, when she sees him at work, the edge is something she should prod and poke until it unravels and she understands the why and how. Fiore’s emotions are strange, to say the least, but they never feel dangerous. Not when she is around him. More importantly, the little thread of the Veil wrapped around her fingers never tugs when she notices the oddness. It is not a secret she is meant to unravel. Not for now. So Lailani leaves the oddness alone, content on the knowledge the Veil would let her know when it is necessary for her to act, and when it is not. 

“Evening, sunshine,” she calls out with a warm smile as she slips into the establishment and heads towards Fiore. “Come up with any new questions, or shall I tell you the story of another of Mythal’s triumphs?”

[envyscaled]

The idea of ruling anything had never appealed to her. It was all appearances, stress, and decisions she was certainly not cut out for. The life of sitting on any sort of throne all day just sounded boring when there was so much more to living. And abandoning those responsibilities that weighed on her shoulders finally gave her the happiness she had wanted back then. "Oh, come on. Can you imagine me ruling anything? I have siblings, they'll do just fine." They were the ones constantly fighting over the throne anyways, bickering and whining. If anything, she gave them the chance they so wanted.

She did manage a laugh, however, giving a shake of her head. "No, no, I meant like...people that I knew before. I have friends but only since I came on land and no merfolk. I think some of them are still intimidated by me if they know who I am." Her status wasn't exactly secret. It just...didn't come up often. Quite possibly the only lies she told were with clients to make them think she was interested but that was just part of the job.

The water was refreshing, Liliana resisting every urge to just jump into the water. Perhaps later, closer to the end of the party when fewer people would care. "But life here is good. I'm a dancer actually over at Danse Macabre. I get to do what I want and don't have to care about people judging me. But, I have a better question for you." Setting her glass down, Liliana leaned in, lips pulled into a grin, "How do you come to a party then just sit by the pool by yourself?"

"So runaway bride?" She'll know what he meant—he hopes so anyway. It's strange to see royalty acting so casual, but they're people too after all. Running away from her responsibilities though, he looks a bit down on that considering his work as an Emissary, but with her, he's just a funeral home owner. Though, he's aware not everyone is cut for that kind of work and maybe, it's better that she left for someone else to take over eventually and wants to be doing it. "A different approach to ruling can be good and push forward a nation in the right direction. But someone who doesn't want to lead shouldn't. So I'm sure you made the right call."

"Liliana." He repeats. It's too much for him to use any more familiarity with her at this point. "That's good. And how do you find your land life?" He can do small talk. His daughter would've like Liliana for sure.

He sits back once she's settled—it'll take some time for him to not let etiquette dictates how he acts around the woman. "No friends? That's impossible." She has the type of personality that attracts people, but maybe it's harder for someone like her to welcome people closer. "I'm glad I could offer some—comfort?" He says unsure of the right word to use in a situation like this, because he's never had to deal with something like this before. "I hope no one from your kingdom has found you."

Lucia Pescador Quando si allarga l'aria

Erbari e altre storie

Francesca Alfano Miglietti

Rondinella Press, 2019, 100 pagine, 250 22x15,3cm,

euro 25,00

mostra NonostanteMarras, Mlano dal 29/05/2019 al 30/07/2019

In mostra un centinaio di disegni che compongono multiformi installazioni. La sua ricerca, in continuo movimento ed in continua evoluzione, ferma nell’istante prima della loro fine immagini di alberi, fiori, paesaggi, vasi, uccelli, ma anche abiti, ventagli, piatti, valigie, piccole scatole e tazze da thè. Pagine strappate e rimesse insieme, pellicole fotografiche, vecchie pagine di archivi, vengono utilizzati da Lucia Pescador per riscrivere e risignificare il mondo degli elementi e delle storie, attraverso il disegno e la calligrafia minuta.

I temi che affronta Lucia Pescador sono di carattere universale: la natura, la storia, la memoria, il tempo, il senso della caducità delle cose. Si appassiona al disegno e si lascia affascinare e stupire dalla contemporanea presenza della solitudine di fronte ad un soggetto, sia esso un luogo o un individuo o un fiore, e questa dimensione poetica è sempre espressa dalle sue opere, una bellezza che ci viene incontro, e ci conduce in un luogo di ricordi personali e di altre coincidenze, oniriche, intime, sentimentali, che creano un tipo di memoria intermedia e poetica. La bellezza viene declinata dall’artista in una calligrafia in cui paesaggio, cielo, movimento, alberi, fiori, foglie, erba, uccelli riescono a sollecitare lo spettatore, attivando sensazioni ed emozioni profonde che dal molteplice riportano all’unitarietà e viceversa.

Pensieri Perduti

Tutto mi riporta all'Estate, ogni cosa che incontro, ogni cosa che ascolto, non c'è nulla che trattenga il mio pensiero all'inverno! Basta un fiore rosso pieno della sua passione per riportarmi nell'intensità di sensi che mi ribollono dentro come quando sto con te!

a crumpled stick of gum that'll surely get forgotten & ruin his pants in the wash

keys to his home with the keychain lisanna gave him ♡

a mini flashlight or glow stick because he's a child

snacks for lector

probably trash . . .

flower ( a snack )

08. wallet

fiore's equivalent of a credit card that's abused on a daily

guild & citizen identification cards that he refuses to show anyone

next job flyer & address

a tiny pressed flower ( for decoration & sentimental reasons, not a snack )

a scale of weisslogia he keeps with him always, that somehow survived aggressive time travel

a small folded note from a someone special

photo of he, lector, rogue, & frosch ♡

emergency contact numbers that he's too lazy to put in his phone

🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 — pleaseeeeeee

ask and ye shall recieve

01. Chelia looooooves sweet treats. However her baking skills ? Not too hot. She can bake a killer cookie, but that's about it.

02. While Chelia has a very good understanding of human anatomy and function, she's nowhere near a doctor level in her FT verses. Wendy is the true doctor among the pair. Her healing is physical only - wounds, breaks, fractures etc. Poisons, illnesses and internal ailments aren't her forte.

03. Chelia was raised outside of Fiore - she only returned the country once she was finished with her schooling in her attempts to find Sherry & Lamia Scale. She was raised in Bosco by her mother, and later schooled there too.

04. Chelia's deadly sin is pride. Being mentored by Lyon, she inherited his pride after seeing his confidence in her and her skills at an impressionable age. However, she's taken it too far - she's now arrogant, and her self esteem is based off of her own perception of her strength. To beat her is to humble her, sure, but it's also to break her.

05. She's a natural performer. Yes, she bares her emotions openly... but she also uses them to her own benefit. She wears her heart on her cheek, not on her sleeve.

A selection of the daily letters (sent but undelivered) to Gio Fiore:

26 August 2017

Dear Gio, I'm writing you this letter because even as summer's ended, my father has yet to give me back my phone and laptop. So I hope that, somehow, this gets to you. Papa, Enzo and I are back in Milan. It's only an hour's drive away from Laglio, but it felt like it went on forever. The whole ride over, I couldn't stop thinking about you, and why you didn't show. You promised last night you'd come see me off but there was no sign of you at all. No call, no text, not even a note. Have I said something last night that's offended you? Or maybe done something to push you away? Whatever it is, please tell me, so I can make things right. I miss you so much already, but love you even more. I hope to hear from you soon. Yours always, Nicola xo

01 September 2017

My dearest Gio, It's been a week since I've seen or heard from you, and every day, I miss you more and more. It's another few days until school starts, but my father's announced at dinner tonight that we'll be moving all the way to the other end of the country — far, far away from you, to his hometown in Palermo, Sicily. At first I didn't understand why he would be pulling me out of school my senior year, but eventually, he came clean. It's to protect the baby, he said. But I don't know if I can fully believe him. Something in me feels like it might have more to do with not letting anyone in Milan know that his teenage daughter is with child. I wish you were here. More than anything. Love always, Nicola xo

Tesoro mio, Palermo is beautiful, not unlike Laglio. It's sunny here most of the time, and I spend my days taking walks. My doctor here said it's good for both me and the baby. But I get tired often. That's to be expected, she said and I just nod along. I don't tell her that I don't really sleep well at night. I'd hate for it to somehow reach my father's ears. Everyone here knows everybody. But it's okay, I don't really mind the walks. I don't know anyone else here so walking passes the time. I've attached our address at the back of this letter, in case you can come and visit. I hope you do. I miss you terribly. Until then, Nicola xo

My darling Gio, I had an ultrasound appointment this morning. Our baby's heartbeat is getting stronger with each visit. I wish I could somehow send you a snippet of it but I've no way to send it to you. My father has given me back my laptop, for school, but there's no internet in the house. We should appreciate nature more, he said. As if me taking my daily walks isn't enough. Still, I'll keep the audio file for when I can send you things online again. Thinking about you Nicola xo

Cuore mio, This letter's a little bulkier than usual. I found this cute birthday card the other day and thought you might find it funny. I've also attached a photo of me and baby. As you can see, my bump's more noticeable now. I hope you're celebrating your special day as wonderfully as we had planned it should be. I'm sorry I'm not there to personally wish you a happy birthday. But please know that I'm thinking of you always. Happy birthday, my love. May you have many, many more to come. Love you forever, Nicola xo

My love! We're having a boy! I just got back from another ultrasound check and was told that we're having a boy! I've included a snapshot of him in the envelope. It's a little hard to see but I promise, it's there! Haha! I know it's late but perhaps this can serve as my late birthday present. :) Wish you were here, Nicola xo

Dear Gio, Felt our son kick for the very first time just now, and the first thing I thought of was to tell you so you could feel it, too. That is, until I remembered that you're not here. Oh well, at least you'll know when this gets to you. Better late than never, I guess. Goodnight for now, Nicola xo

Dearest darling, I hope you're keeping warm there in Laglio. When my mother was still alive, she used to tell me of how the winters there can get quite cold. So, please don't forget to wear your jacket. And gloves. And a hat! I'd hate for you to ever get sick, especially during the holidays. I wish we were spending Christmas together but hearing from you would be more than enough for me. Either way, I wish you and your family a very happy holiday season. And I hope you receive everything you've wished for. Merry Christmas, amore mio. I love you. Forever yours, Nicola xo

Love of my life, I hope that by the time this reaches you, it'd be New Year's Eve, so that in a way, I'm there with you when the new year rolls around. As the year slowly comes to a close, I find myself torn. Saying goodbye to this year feels like bidding you — and our memory together — a final farewell. But as much as it pains me that we won't be starting 2018 like we wanted to, in three months' time, our son will be here. And I can only pray that you will be with us by then, too. Please never forget how much I love you. Until my last breath, I am forever yours. Your Nicola xo

Extra Virgin Pizza

Rocket Ham, ordered from Extra Virgin Pizza. Roughly 12 inches in diameter, featuring tomato, prosciutto de parma, robioka, scamorza, whatever "rocket" is, fior di latte, olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Basically a salad stuck on top of limp dough with prosciutto on top. $32 SGD.

Skip it! The pizza was structurally unsound, falling apart and a real annoyance to try to eat. You can get better pizza for a better price on the island.

Location: 7 Holland Vlg Wy, #01-03/04 05 One, Singapore 275748
