On Hiatus

Going through some life stuff right now, so I’ll be taking a break from actively posting for a little while.

I’ll still be checking my inbox, so feel free to keep yapping- but please don’t expect my blog to be very active.

Have a lovely spring!

‘Numbers do not feel. Do not bleed or weep or hope. They do not know bravery or sacrifice. Love and allegiance. At the very apex of callousness, you will find only ones and zeros.’

‘Of course, he’d told her she was beautiful, too, all the time. If she hadn’t been, surely he’d never have come over to talk to her in the first place. Kaz wasn’t exactly one to look for inner beauty. Karou was, simply, lovely […] Beyond merely pretty, her face was vibrantly alive, her gaze always sparking and luminous, and she had a birdlike way of cocking her head, her lips pressed together while her dark eyes danced, that hinted at secrets and mysteries.’

2024 books - the secret history by donna tartt

There are such things as ghosts. People everywhere have always known that. And we believe in them every bit as much as Homer did. Only now, we call them by different names. Memory. The unconscious.

ya know, I’m getting real sick of tumblr putting a mature content warning on all of my moodboards. it’s never for anything crazy. it’s always for like… bare shoulders or something. apparently tumblr is like a Victorian prude horrified at the sight of ankles.

‘Let us lie here forever. Let us be buried as wild things are, by tooth and claw and worm. Let the grasses grow up through the sockets of our eyes. Let them find us in seven years or seventy, and let their brows furrow, because they cannot tell my bones from yours.’

“I think it is because Grisha do not suffer the same way the Saints suffer, the way the people suffer. But you have suffered, haven’t you, Alina Starkov? And I think … yes. I think you will suffer more.”

And, Savior save me, I wanted. Not with tenderness, but with a kind of fury: When you dressed for my funeral, I wanted you to see the marks I'd left on your skin; when you raised your cup in my name, I wanted the wine to sting your lips. And why not? Why should I go to my grave without a little pleasure, first? Why should you send me there without a little suffering, after?

❝have you heard of the legends of sleeping kings? the legends that heroes like llewellyn and glendower and arthur aren’t really dead, but are instead sleeping in tombs, waiting to be woken?❞ — the raven boys, maggie stiefvater.
