you are the apple of my eye

I will give my love an apple without e'er a core, I will give my love a house without e'er a door. I will give my love a palace, wherein they may be And they may unlock it without e'er a key.

close up under the cut

My head is the apple without e'er a core. My mind is the house without e'er a door. My heart is the palace, wherein they may be And they may unlock it without e'er a key.

(Traditional English folk song)

For @fistfuloftarenths and Rosa (I hope we get to meet her soon!)

Last 6 Lines

I was tagged by @graysparrowao3 !

These are the last 6 lines of a fic I just finished that will be out in a few days. The fic is NSFW, the lines are not.

I'm going to tag @beesht @redroomroaving @coreene @captainsigge

Working title: Barrel & Bugger

Sal flopped onto the barrel next to Gale, smoke lazily billowing around his head.

"You really had to eat a boot? Without even salt?" he asked.

"Indeed."

Another inhale, and Sal offered the smoke to Gale. "Think you need this more than me."

Salazon is such an adorable little wizard, playing pretend in his rogue leathers. He can keep them on when we go at it.

[sharess-festhall]

I want to make Salazon a whimpering mess. Just so out of it he accidentally sets off the smoke powder.

I told Fisto I think he probably smudges the sigils sometimes cus he's rushing, tries to read them later and can't tell if he drew the symbol for fire or frost. Bugger.

wizard who's too lazy to name things properly and so can't ever find the incantation she's looking for bc her spellbook is full of spells called shit like 'aaaa1' and 'asdfghjk'

In which Rosafieri is not able to procure noblestalk in the Wide, and must descend to the Lower City and the apothecaries there.

As any wizard might, she also drops in at the bookstore, and meets someone else's servant.

Someone else's badly trained and badly clothed servant.

That's where it starts. The beginning of the beginning.

Who in the Zhentarim would have their license (and who definitely SHOULDN'T have one?)

Rugan HAS to have one. that's like half of his usefulness at this point. That man has NO stress, while Olly would probably be SWEATING trying to drive safely. But if Bellar or Garias takes the wheel Rugan's suddenly white knuckling it.

Sal definitely does and is probably a very nervous driver too, hates driving, his whole body aches once he's off the car. He would drive one of those smaller cars, I just don't see him in a big car…

Garias should not have one.

Karad and Jarg definitely have them.

Bellar probably got one the instant he was eligible but he's an absolutely shit driver and no one wants to ride with him, a menace on the road, gets terrible road rage.

Brem is a disturbingly safe driver to protect the merch.

Olly is probably training for his license right now and Rugan is basically backseat driving the whole time. Rugan tbh feels like he'd be very chill teaching someone how to drive. Almost got in a crash? "Oh lad nothing even happened" or "I've done worse" or "So long as Zarys doesn't catch you is the important bit.".

Zarys can drive but she'd rather die before she's made to teach anyone.
