i have waited
(crowley pov poem - warning for suggestive content!)
-
I have waited for you, angel
As woman, as man
As both, sometimes
Red-lipped and hard as anything
Or a drag of lace under gathered breeches
Dew-flecked with my cloudbursts of want
I have waited as neither, a blank page
Fluttering in the breeze from the open window
While you dip your pen in your inkwell
I have waited for you, angel
As a young girl shuns the sunshine of an August afternoon
To sit by the phone until it rings three times
Or, indeed, until darkness falls at last
I have waited for you like an old man
Longing for a death which refuses to come
He sits on park benches and wonders
How he must endure the commotion of life
Just when his soul has found quiet
I have waited for you, angel
As an ocean wave
Which suddenly knows it shall dissolve into foam
Crashes harder than intended on the sand at the prospect of it
I have waited for you
In taverns, coffee houses, glittering ballrooms
In bookshops, in bookshops, in bookshops
On faded rugs and felt-covered armchairs
I have waited with the patience required to finish a Tolstoy
And the hunger that stabs as one devours a great mystery
I have waited for you, angel
Under the stars on a clear night
Thighs trembling around my own crooked fingers
I have waited for you, also
In the solace of my bedchambers
Twisting silk sheets across my chest
So they might soothe the ache beneath my ribs
I have waited for you, angel
In the lodging rooms of country inns
Even as I land face first on a bed of straw
And bend my knees before a brooding stranger
I have waited for you, angel
At the courts of countless monarchs
Arching my back like a good mistress
As one man pulls at the string of my corset
And another knocks over his silver chalice
I waited for you, angel
In a Soho pub over bottles of Talisker
A book by my side, kept as a souvenir
I waited for you, again
One elbow leaning on the Bentley
My glasses fogging up as you retreated one last time
I have waited for you, angel
Since before the stars began
Since the world was merely a funny idea
Which made cherubs giggle and archangels whisper
I have waited for you, angel
For years beyond counting
I can wait a little longer
You know where I am

#executive dysfunction#shitpost#every day I get stuck in waiting mode for SO LONG and SO MANY TIMES#that one time I tried adhd meds it fixed it but then I. was like no I am going to be scared and not continue taking it <3#and also. I simply did not like the psychologist and did not want to have to go back#so. rawdogging the world <3#man if I could start a task right now...then you'd see...then you'd all see....

I'm turning 30 this month, and for some reason have become suddenly interested in material possessions. like what if,,,,,,,,my couch was nice. what if my sheets were nice. is this what happens to you??
#this bougie furniture store was having an extreme New Years sale#and it sent me out of my mind#like......wait......I could have that?? I could have NICE coffee table and NICE chair??? really?#a good chunk of my savings mysteriously disappeared shortly after.

i have such a love for characters who descend into madness or villainy out of deep, deep empathy. characters who fundamentally cannot cope with the cruel realities they find themselves in and blow up about it in spectacular fashion. fallen angel type characters with tears of outrage in their eyes. characters who break before they bend, and break so badly they splatter blood all over their noble ideals. every variation on it gets me so good
#getou suguru#kaneki ken#abyss twin#i know there are others who im not thinking of rn#feel free to reblog with more examples#aphelion.txt#tropes#WAIT I REMEMBERED MORE#jaina proudmoore#dimitri alexandre blaiddyd#phosphophyllite#i just spent like half an hour trying to find this on tv tropes but it must be. Too specific of a thing i have in mind bc#I just kept finding similar and related but too broad categories#despair event horizon. fallen hero. well intentioned extremist. etc etc etc#like specifically i'm talking about when the character's EMPATHY is the CRUX of the problem. sosooo crunchyjuicytasty#edit:#also just know that i am reading every tag on this post#and enthusiastically scribbling down the names i dont recognizr#so i can check out their series later#edit 2 wow this post blew up 🫡 godspeed fellow villain likers#the amount of people tagging this as 'me lmao' is concerning to me#wwx#how did i fucking forget this was also yllz era wwx

the pretend plot of bg3: you've gotta get these tadpoles out and stop a giant floating brain with delusions of grandeur
the real plot of bg3: in order to date us (the party) you must defeat our seven evil exes: a half-demon warlock patron, the literal goddess of magic, a vampiric lord, an insane cult leader , an archdemon, the goddess of darkness, and finally, the Trauma
