All a poet can do today is warn. - Wilfred Owen

I am merely a 29 year old Ace floating through space, with a B.A. in History, an M.A. in WWII History, and a love for WWI poetry! (They/them). A few of my interests are: History, WW1 poets, 1917 (the movie), The Outsiders, (most of S.E. Hinton's other books and their movies), Puppy Bowl, It’s Me Or The Dog, Gorillaz, How To Train Your Dragon, The Bad Guys, Team Fortress 2, and Rocko's Modern Life!! ///// Feel free to ask anything! ///// (ART TAGS: aph shy art, aph shy artblog.) ///// (Tags for things I’ve written: aph shy, aph shy rants, aph shy ask, aph shy wwi book, aph shy dragon book, tponl, the principality of new london, aph shy interests, aph shy headcanons & aph shy abroad rants!) ///// (Old tumblr blogs whose posts have been moved here: grassholmandalaska, artblogmorelikeartbog)/////(Icon: My cat Ittus aka Itty Bitty!)

<3Rest In Peace Mason<3

Rest in peace Mason. His full name was Smokey Mason McCormick. Mason was 17 years old. He died Sunday, October 19, 2025 at 2:00pm. 

These were some of the last pictures I took of him. Mason has always been elegantly photogenic, so here are my favorites from his last sink photo shoot.

Mason was an avid water connoisseur, with his favorite waters being from a local Mexican restaurant, the sink, and any cup you left unattended. Mason also had a refined palette, with a fondness for tuna, scallops, and the occasional bite of Lunchable ham. 

After all of these years with him, it will be hard without him. 

Goodnight Mason. I love you. I wish I could still give you your three kisses on the forehead, and tell you I’d see you tomorrow. Rest well my sweet kitty. You will be eternally loved and missed.
