happy thoughts | chapter 11 | chapter 11/?

She was always doing that, Jane realized. Turning inward and turning away. Running. "Peter," Jane began, lifting the drawing from the desk, "this—this is impressive. I had no idea—" "Y'never asked," he said, spine straightening. He held a shirt and a pair of dark sweatpants. His gaze met hers—unabashed that she had caught him drawing her. A dare instead. She lowered her eyes first. It'd never occurred to Jane to consider what Peter studied. She'd only judged if he deserved to be there. "I know," she admitted. "What do you need? Anything." He only shook his head, brow furrowed as if she had pained him.  "Keep it," he murmured, brown eyes darkening. "Was jus' practice.'" Jane nodded, fingers tightening on the thick paper, and left the room. She closed the door with a quiet click. And now, she sat on the couch, sipping from the water that he never touched. If he had, she thought, she wouldn't drink from it.

I'm still working on chapter 12. But I realized I never posted a graphic for this chapter. <3

i love the part of making art where you feel like you need to go missing

The specific comedy of being a writer at a party. someone asks what you do. you say you write. they say "oh what kind of thing." you try to explain. their face does something. you can see them calculating how long they have to stand here. you start using shorter words. they say "oh cool like a blog?" and you say "sort of yeah" even though it is nothing like a blog. you have surrendered. you take a sip of your drink. you spend the rest of the night thinking about a character who goes to parties and hates them. you drive home and write for two hours. the party was actually great.

Oh my emotions these days by Eloise Klein Healy

[calypsocanyon]

‘cause, baby, i’ve never seen brown eyes look so blue.

•

so, for the past two weeks or so, i have been rereading The Shades of London by @maureenjohnsonbooks. and, as an adult, the ending of The Madness Underneath is so much more heartbreaking, bc you realize just how young these characters are.

especially stephen.

anyway. i drew *that* scene.

and i am sorry for all the fanart spam. life has been tumultuous lately, and apparently returning to my fandoms from 10+ years ago is self-soothing.

tell me all the time not to worry

and think of all the time i’ll

i’ll have with you.
