"One night he lost even more heavily than usual." —— JOHNATHAN SMALL, The Sign of Four

                         he would stumble into the streets, the strings keeping his limbs up and stiff cut loose for the night.

                                                                      he was too late.                                                                       too --- slow.            he hadn't been able to save kratides.

                                          the walls support him and he slides onto the ground, eyes colder than steel and emptier than his chest.

                             a dismal sky that was coloured with grey watched him.

     " -- Basil."

     He pauses, and for the barest moment he is not entirely certain what to say. He is aware, of course, that he was supposed to have had dinner with the painter the previous evening, and more aware still that he had, quite without notice, abandoned these plans in favor of going to the club with Lord Henry.

     Sometimes he cannot help himself; Lord Henry says the most wonderful things and is endlessly intriguing. Basil often says nothing at all, and when he does speak, it is nothing that particularly lingers on the mind.

     He chooses not to mention the skipped dinner, and instead he offers up the most amiable of smiles, brilliant and beautiful.

     "How long it's been, Basil! You must tell me what you are working on."

" You are cute but we are not going to be a thing."

Send one for my muse’s reaction.

     —- ∰  ”Do you mean like a thing-thing or like a friend-thing?.”  Where did he get this idea from? perhaps the fact that she was too affectionate was sending the wrong signals.  ”But I don’t want a thing-thing.  I think of you as a brother and I wouldn’t date, that even sounded nasty.  Are we clear now?.”

Oh, how good-hearted and pure Mr. Hallward is! How I crave to be his friend! At times, I am under the impression that he is deeply hurt but how could I ever be his friend when everyone seems to be seeking the next scandal, lesser people find so much amusement in gossip! And the worst of all is that majority of this gossip is just lies. And how upsetting it is, to be considered so much less than a man. Why, I believe I have as much of a brain as they do! After all, I am a princess and I should be able to befriend whoever I want. However, no one is aware of that here and I must keep it thus. Home -- back home it was different. Back home I don't think I would even seek his friendship, for I had never conversed with one who was so much less than a lord. And yet I am glad, for this man turned out to be much more in spirit than some lords I had been unfortunate enough to meet.

           ' what's it like to be alive? ' ( his voice seemed to echo through   the half-empty room of the quiet house. there   was a small moment of peace for   the soul-keeper, in which he   could rest, his arms were aching   but there was still a smile on   his face, even if it was faint.           he knew it was probably best           to leave the artist alone           when he was at work, but he           couldn't help himself, it was           a question he had been dying           to voice for so long--- )

Put a ❤ in my inbox, and my muse will confess something they think is cute about your muse!

     —- ∰   “How easily you seem to get embarrassed over simple things, and then you get that blush.  I bet you thought I hadn’t noticed or at least you were hoping I didn’t.”

Cuddle

Send me ‘cuddle’ for my muses reaction to yours suddenly sitting next to them and wrapping both of them in a blanket.

     —- ∰   “Please, tell me this is not some sort of trap to make me watch one of those awful movies that you like.”
