yall when lemony snicket was like “I will love you as a drawer loves a secret compartment, and as a secret loves to make a person gasp...I will love you until all such compartments are discovered and opened, and until all secrets have gone gasping into the world. I will love you until all the codes and hearts have been broken and until every anagram and egg has been unscrambled” and then when he was like “I will love you as we find ourselves farther and farther from one another where once we were so close that we could slip the curved straw and the long slender spoon between our lips and fingers respectively” and then when he was additionally like “I will love you no matter where you go and who you see, no matter where you avoid and who you don’t see, and no matter who sees you avoiding where you go”......that shit was CRAZY
