"Rosemary"

My ears perk up, a familiar croaky voice breaking my concentration. We're usually both asleep by now, but I was up working on my project. We had been sleeping together for nearly a year now, but he had affirmed me that it wouldn't be a problem for him.

I turn to him. He was standing in the doorway, his eyes sunken and tired. He was wearing his same battered wifebeater, and just some underwear: his normal sleeping garment. His wrinkles were highlighted by the dim light coming from my laptop screen.

"Duke? Are you okay?" I call out. His face lowered, and he scratched the back of his head.

"I was just thinkin'. Layin' in bed without you..." He paused, as if he shouldn't be saying anything right now. "It made me think how much I need you in my life. I don't want anything to help to you."

I invite him to sit with me, patting the cushion beside me. He takes the offer, coming into full vision. I could see his eyes are wet, and he's shaking a little.

"What happened at the lake..." He says it in a murmur, but it's enough to make my heart beat faster. I almost forgot about the lake. I peer down at my wrist. The bruise had nearly healed, being just a pale yellow now, but the memory was fresh in my mind again.

"I just wanted to apologize.... for everything." He takes a pause every so often, like he's trying to find the words to say next. His voice is shaky, contrasting his usual iron-tough nature. His eyes were darting to place to place, everywhere but me. "Me and Janice have been talking, about how I should tell you this."

I cup his cheek in my palm, running over his large scar. "Duke, you can tell me. Please, you mean so much to me."

His amber eyes finally meet mine. He takes a deep breath, in and out. "Rachel... my last wife."

His breathing erupts again, his eyes turning into a flowing fountain. He falls into my shoulder, sobbing. He wraps his arms around me, holding me as if he's afraid to let go, like I'd be washed away into nothing.

"It was all my fault. It's my fault she died. It should'a been me. I used to wish every day it was me instead of her. I used to just put that shit in my body, hopin' to some damed god it'd make the pain go away. I used t'see her all the damn fuckin' time."

He had more scars than you could see. No matter how many times I've explored his body, taking note of each blemish and scab, taking note of all the roads his wrinkles lead; there was still scars deep down.

"I saw in her that lake. I haven't seen her in so long, but I saw her in that lake."

I freeze. Thoughts start running through my head, trying to process everything I just heard. I don't recall anything but us two at the pond, and I've always had the ability to feel nearby spirits. And he's been weening off the drugs ever since we met.

But now my focus is on him himself. I run my hand through his tousled, slicked back hair. "Baby, it's-" and now I'm crying. "It's okay. It's not your fault."

"I just don't want to lose you. You mean too much to me."

"I'm not going anywhere."

He peers into my eyes, his breathing growing steady. He falls into my arms, letting himself go limp again, allowing me to bear his weight.

"I love you Dukey."

"I love you too, Rose. I won't let anything happen to you."

I decided my project can wait. We slept together in the living room that night. We covered ourselves in the blankets we drape around the chairs.

We held each other close. I could hear his breathing as I fell asleep. It was much more steady than before. And even though I could hardly see him, I can tell he looked a lot more comfortable.

These organizations supporting KOSA going through while claiming they want to help marginalized kids are actually so disgusting to me. The posts they make about Nex is just virtue signaling & words when their actions say let’s make things worse for these children.

I’m gonna be 100% honest, they should keep that kid’s name out of their damn mouths so long as they support KOSA. Like actually fuck you & eat shit. Actions speak louder than words, traitorous scumbags. You don’t care, you care about your stakeholders more.

Your organization can only thrive & exist so long as there’s a problem to donate towards solving. Of course you would support KOSA, you need a problem to keep existing in order to look like the good guys & solve it. Just go mask off & call us slurs & your “customers” at this point, it would be less disgusting than covering it up behind kind words.

Honestly, I think that people having an issue with Viv donating 5k to Lackadaisy isn't because she donated, it was the manner of the announcement itself. I've been a fan of her work for a while, but posting about it and outright showing the amount she donated on her Twitter... even as a fan of hers the manner of it really rubbed me the wrong way, particularly because she posted a pic of the donation. It almost felt as if she was showing off.

If she had just posted saying something along the lines of "We at Spindlehorse donated to help fund Lackadaisy! It's a fantastic indie project that really needs more love, go support them if you can!" and left it at that (maybe having a link to the Kickstarter but even that text alone could have worked) with no clarification on the donation size, that would have been fine. I don't think anyone would have had issue with that.

As it was, outright showing the donation amount seemed less "Support Lackadaisy, they're awesome!" and more "Look how much I donated!"

Anon you literally just admitted people are doing pic related

the finale was bullshit for a lot of reasons but one thing i feel like we gloss over is that series finale Sam would be an absolute dog shit father.

[draw-you-coward]

me realizing retrospectively that i didn’t just “randomly” turn my roza series into a romance because it actually largely pivots around trahearne’s death (even when it’s not directly stated) and how the fallout of it is the centerpoint of roza’s trauma and trust/abandonment issues
