Greece legalized same sex marriage today, and someone under one of the announcement posts commented, “Congrats to Achilles and Patroclus. This is what they would have wanted” and now I’m on the floor.

"Whatever we did—or, more crucially, did not do—it seemed that so long as we did it together, our individual sins might be abated. There is no comfort like complicity."

Had to make a presentation for my creative writing class and I liked these slides enough to post them ehe :)

"You were the one who wanted to save the world,” he said, quietly. “I just wanted to save you."

one thing about me is if i love something i’m going to collect as much of it that i possibly can. my favorite book of all time is A Separate Peace my John Knowles and i wanted to share my current collection of different covers/editions + related things.

I'M SORRY the quality kinda looks like dogwater in pic 1 (have no idea what happened) 🙇‍♂️🙇‍♂️

But ahh!! Here are some doodles!! I was thinking of doing a few for Bullet Train as well~ :")) YEAH I was pleasantly surprised by how good the story was. Is the movie accurate to the novel or completely different? haha

Oh!! And also!! There's a third book in the series and it's called The Mantis. It's pretty interesting as well!! You should definitely read it if you have time!! It's quite different from BT and TA since it's centered on 1 character: Kabuto (who is honestly very wholesome despite his career choice lolol)

Thank you for reading!! I hope you liked the posttt :DD Have a good day or night!!

Are you fine or do you think about this scene: Ludwig comes back. "Go and see another doctor, Ludwig," I whisper to him. "I'm sure this fellow doesn't know his job. He hasn't any brain." Ludwig makes a tired gesture and we go down the stairs in silence. At the bottom, with averted face he says suddenly: "Well, good-bye - "

I look up. He is leaning against the railing and his fists are clenched in his pockets.

"What's wrong?" I ask, rather startled.

"I am going now," he answers.

"Well, give us your paw, can't you?" I say mystified. With trembling lips he protests: "But you mustn't touch me now, now I've -"

Shy and slim there he stands by the railing - just as he would lean against the parados, with sad face and lowered eyes. Ach, Ludwig! Ludwig! what rot will you say next? Not touch you! you old fathead, you silly ass! touch you? there, I touch you, a hundred times I touch you - it has hurt me so, blast it! now I am blubbling, damned fool! and I put my arm about his shoulder and press him to me, and I feel how he is trembling - "Ach, Ludwig, that's all bunk, and anyway, I may have it myself, for all I know. You just keep calm now, and that goggle-eyed old snake up there will soon put you right again." But he trembles and trembles, and I hold him fast.'

Yeah… it’s been a year but I still think about these two.

My latest obsession. Finally read this book and I loved it so much! Even if it kept me crying for two days and gave me an existential crisis.

"The past is weird. I mean, does it really exist? It feels like it exists, but where is it? And if it did exist but doesn’t now, then where did it go?"
