it was far too late for them to be out, especially with needing to be at the shop early tomorrow. but they hadn’t been able to stay cooped up in their house any longer. cress needed to be outside, had always liked going for a run in the short period of dusk before night fell on the city. she'd stopped running as much in the past few months. but it had been a long day and she instead found herself with hands stuffed into the pockets of her hoodie and sitting on a bench in the dark. her gaze was riveted on the stars above, though unfortunately dimmed by the lights of the city they resided in.

“you know, my mom told me when i was a kid that by the time we’re seeing the stars, they’re all dead,” she stated rather simply as she heard footsteps nearing her. as a child, cress had always loved the night sky, had made up her own constellations and everything rather than learning any of the real ones. "that's not quite true though; it's more like we're seeing backwards in time instead." although she'd believed anything her mother had said when she was young, she'd learned in her teen years that her mother was infinitely flawed and nonsensical.

“i’m sure there's some kind of lesson there somewhere that i never bothered to learn," cress added with a small laugh.

“As a child she was described as having the eyes of a half-tamed creature, being drawn to the unnatural, with a penchant for improvising tempestuous fairy stories.”

— Patti Smith, in her Introduction to Wuthering Heights

i'm no cactus expert, but i know a prick when i see one.

aesthetic : a charming smile turning feral, covering mirrors to avoid your own reflection ( or perhaps so you stop seeing things ), staying up all night to see the sunrise just to make sure it still comes up, longing for the irresponsibility of childhood when you didn't know what you know now, burying your past six feet under, wishing on every stay in the night sky, a matchstick heart waiting to burn, flowers growing back with thorns, a face straight out of myths, the smell of honeysuckle and freshly cut grass lingering when you leave, sarcasm was always your best friend.

◟✧⡀ ( kassius nelson. demi woman. she/they. ) … there’s a figure off in the distance, do you see it? wait is that … CRESSIDA 'CRESS' KING ? how long have they been standing there? if that’s really them, i believe they’re TWENTY-SIX. do i know them? no, but i hear they’re CHARISMATIC and SANGUINE, but also OBSTINATE and CAPRICIOUS. i do know that they’ve been in the City for TEN YEARS. it’s crazy that they’re just standing there … shouldn’t they be working at GARDEN OF EDEN as a GARDENER? maybe they’re off today, i couldn’t tell you. hope they get moving soon. i’m starting to feel like PERSEPHONE is peering over at me …
