It was a thing of my love, that blood.

The Bandaged Shoulder - C.P. Cavafy - Greece

Translator: Edmund Keeley and Philip Sherrard (Greek)

He said he’d hurt himself against a wall or had fallen down. But there was probably some other reason for the wounded, the bandaged shoulder.

Because of a rather abrupt gesture, as he reached for a shelf to bring down some photographs he wanted to look at, the bandage came undone and a little blood ran.

I did it up again, taking my time over the binding; he wasn’t in pain and I liked looking at the blood. It was a thing of my love, that blood.

When we left, I found, in front of his chair, a bloody rag, part of the dressing, a rag to be thrown straight into the garbage; and I put it to my lips and kept it there a long while— the blood of love against my lips.

edit post nov 2023: I GOT THE HELP I NEEDED THANK YOU SOSOOSO MUCH

dramatically sprawled out on the floor

so i gotta move for the third time in that many years. unfortunately between health problems and the General State of The Economy, I have been unable to find work to be able to save any money. i have no choice but to leave the entire state. i thankfully have somewhere to go, however I need help getting there. i've been trying to do the math to get what I need to its lowest amount possible, but even that is still at least $2.5k.

after this move, i should be able to get things more stable and I might even have a couple job prospects lined up in that area, but right now I'm really scraping the bottom of the barrel funds wise and desperately need help.

if you're able to spare anything, i've set up a goal through kofi so i can track it publicly. i have trouble asking for help but i really need what help i can get. thank you, so so so much.

The 'brother' she talks to is merely a puppet controlled by 'strings' to remain upright or move around. Mua claims it responds back to her, yet no one has heard anything from the puppet at all. Just felt a heavy and chilling presence coming from it— moreso if one looks at its 'eyes'.

A Karkat who isn't out to his friends about his blood color yet has to go to John to get patched up because all humans bleed red and thus John wouldn't think it's weird that he does too.

question but is it homoerotic to patch up your fellow friendleader so tenderly when he trusts no one else to and also linger your touch but only slightly subtly so as not to alert him to your pining gaze?

Ik that these aren't super popular, but they are what I can make to shill my favs, so!!

Whump from L/R!!

Including clips for both Rowe and Jack!! (Which is hard considering that Jack is the one who NEVER get whumped)

IF YOU KNOW, YOU KNOW SPOILER WARNINGS UNDER CUT MAJOR SPOILERS!!!!!

Jack is the blond and he is my favorite!! That's obvi by the way that he never gets whumped ^^ My faves never do, sadly :( He's a slightly stoic sweetheart who's always kind, keeping his emotions in check cuz of childhood trauma!! Rowe is the brunet!! He's a class clown, silly ass who talks a lot and does disguises. Both are from a spy anime called L/R: Licensed by Royal(ty). Short, would reccomend!!

No GIFs of Noelle because I'm not comfortable with that ATM. She's a child, for context.

Check out the show!! Its short and cool and spy fiction!!
