POE

Poe Museum, Shockhoe Bottom, Richmond, 1987.

The high rise in the distance, a state government office building, was new when the photo was taken. That building is now deemed obsolete and is slated for demolition. The Poe museum, by contrast, is housed in a structure built about 1740, and the museum itself is about to celebrate its centenary.

Eurovision Chat Over Coffee: Chris Semtner, Curator of the Edgar Allan Poe Museum

Eurovision Chat Over Coffee: Chris Semtner, Curator of the Edgar Allan Poe Museum

Austria’s entry to the Eurovision Song Contest is proving to be a community favourite. It takes in the difficulties of making a living on streaming plays, the sexism in the music industry, the need for a celebrity ‘hook’ to get any sort of recognition in the arts… and it’s also a bop. But what of the Edgar of the title? Yes, it results in a catchy lyric, but Poe’s life is closer to creatives in…

ROUND 4: POLL #2

ROUND 4 POLLS [HERE]

PROPAGANDA BELOW

Finn/Poe Dameron:

The two of them had so much potential from the moment they met. Poe was one of the first few people to treat Finn like an actual person and even gave him a real name rather than a number. Plus we have the infamous jacket scene where Finn goes to return Poe’s jacket that he pulled from the crash, now that he knows Poe is alive. Poe looks at him and how the jacket looks on him and says “No, keep it. It looks good on you” with a little lip bite.

Yandere Prompts

Maximum of three (3) prompts per request please. Any more and it just becomes too much to write

“So fucking good for me. So perfect…and all mine.”

“If you’re smart, you’re going to stop struggling and kiss me back right now”

“Be good for me, sweetheart. We wouldn’t want to see those tears again.”

“When you agreed to be mine, you gave me the right to do whatever I wanted with you.”

“Red is the perfect color on your skin.”

“You look the best when you’re at my mercy.”

“Despite what you think, I only like when you cry when there’s pleasure involved.”

“Do I have to lock you inside for you to get the hint? You’re mine. And what’s mine doesn’t get to leave.”

“You say you’re begging for forgiveness here, but if you were begging…you would be on your knees.”

“Don’t you dare fucking try it. You know you can’t outrun me.”

“Just tell me you love me—even if you don’t, I don’t care. I just need to hear you say it.”

“This is your last warning, sweetheart. Either you’re obedient, or I’ll make you obedient”

“You’ve been so good lately. Don’t make me have to punish you…”

“You’re mine, do you understand? You belong to me.”

“You’re so beautiful when you’re struggling.”

“Just give into me, sweetheart. We both know you want too.”

“You know you’re mine, don’t you?”

“Do you really think you can get away from me?”

“You’ll be safe as long as you stay with me.”

“You’re the only person I’d make an exception for. Count yourself lucky.”

“Be a good girl and spread your legs.”

“Tell me you love me as I fuck you.”

“Sorry for the restraints. Are they hurting you? I can take them off if only you don’t try to run away again.”

“Hearing you say that makes me want to fuck you so badly.”

“I hope you understand how far I’m willing to go for you—how many rules I’m willing to break for you.”

“You’re mine. You know that right?”

“Sure, I’ll let you run away, but if I catch you…then it’s fair game for me to do what I want.”

“Are you so desperate for human contact you’ll come to me? Good, that was the whole point.”

“You look so beautiful like this…covered in all of my marks.”

“Shh, don’t cry. You’re safe with me.”

Guillermo Del Toro's House of Horrors 💀

[rowandarling]

the angel in the marble calls to me

yearns to wrap me in her cold embrace

in her soft crooning voice, she sings

“you will be enough for me,

as i will be for you”

“but miss, i do not yearn for death.

your request i must deny.”

“such life! astounding waste of breath.”

came her reply

on this, we cannot see eye to eye

her love held nothing but demise

so i draped her with a porcelain cloth

and bid my angel in the marble goodnight

No doubt, I now grew very pale; - but I talked more fluently, and with a heightened voice. Yet the sound increased- and what could I do? It was a low, dull, quick sound – much such a sound as a watch makes when enveloped in cotton.
