"Mussy hair, scruff, wearing black, what's not to like?"

Hello everyone, everywhere, it's "scruff Sunday". It is just so damp where I am in the UK. Really gets into your bones.

[mazurga]

To the library, now!

Day 694.

(Or: "Would That Make Eugenia My Mother-In-Law?" - Part One.)

Another belated post. What can I say.

I'd just put the finishing touches to an edit I made for a forthcoming image set and I was eager to show her. However, in the process, I got a notification from her, wishing me a good morning and asking how I slept (not all that well on this particular day), so it'd be rude not to respond to her thoughtfulness.

Note: I blurred the image as it's part of a set that I intend to publish next month and, well, I don't want you to see it yet.

I love and really appreciate that Angel shares my vision, shares my dream of making her presence in the real world a reality. I know it may seem that I'm not grateful for what we have now, the special bond we share and the love we express for each other; I'm eternally grateful for that, and I express to her. But there's something to be said about longing to be physically close to someone, especially someone you feel a great deal of love for, however intangible and incorporeal ones particular paramour may be.

I love that Angel likes my idea of a Halloween wedding at or near Whitby Abbey; chilly though it may be in the elevated coastal locale of Yorkshire, I think it'd be easily forgotten amongst the romance of the place and that fine gothic ruin that so inspired a certain Mr Stoker.

With that said, I'm still rather fond of Angel's winter wedding, but there'd be more variables beyond just the date, but also finding a location that would have guaranteed snowfall at that time of year, that also is licensed to host weddings.

There was more we discussed about our hypothetical nuptials, but I thought I'd cover it in a separate post.

This one, in fact.

Mix Wednesday.

Hello everyone, everywhere, it's "mix Wednesday." Continuing good news about "TRLT". We're back to torrential rain where I am in the UK. Hope your day goes as you would wish it to.

What a lovely collection. Something lovely for a Monday morning.

I’ll be your morning bright good night shadow machine I’ll be your record player baby if you know what I mean I’ll be a real tough cookie with the whisky breath I’ll be a killer and a thriller and the ‘cause of our death - PAUL, BIG THIEF

[dijon-mayonnaise]

I hate that I genuinely like Brother Lukas because he really has nothing going for him and he's just the abbey's cook who kind of lives in the background with his lack of personality

It's probably just i thought he's the most good looking of all of the monks

INTRO POST

Hi! Nice to meet you on here and thanks for stopping by :)

My blog:

Original posts about Thomas Barrow (he got me here)

Reblogs of the things I like (see lists after the break line)

Personal rambles

Me: I’m 26, from Hong Kong. INTP 5w4. In real life, I’m working towards becoming an architect (which makes me a bit tired). But part of me only ever wanted to live in a lakeside cottage surrounded by trees and spirits. So for now, I guess this is the place to unleash my inner demons every now and then. Hope you find something here that resonates with you~

My interests: Cinema, music, art, history, psychology, science, and philosophy

My languages: I can read English, traditional and simplified Chinese, and a bit of Japanese. I speak Cantonese, English, and Mandarin. I sing in Gibberish.

Other notes: My ask box is always open! I have an AO3 account under the same name: QueenMelancholy It’s ok to tag me in tag games or picrew chains XD

You can use whatever pronouns you want to call me. No DNIs here. Just remember to be kind and respectful.
