Archetypal Movements of Water

Circulating Systems and Spiralling Surfaces

— from Sensitive Chaos by Theodor Schwenk

Wherever water occurs it tends to take on a spherical form. It envelops the whole sphere of the earth, enclosing every object in a thin film. Falling as a drop, water oscillates about the form of a sphere; or as dew fallen on a clear and starry night it transforms an inconspicuous field into a starry heaven of sparkling drops.

We see moving water always seeking a lower level, following the pull of gravity. In the first instance it is earthly laws which cause it to flow, draw it away from its spherical form and make it follow a more or less linear and determined course. Yet water continually strives to return to its spherical formIt finds many ways of maintaining a rhythmical balance between the spherical form natural to it and the pull of earthly gravity. We shall be discussing this play of movement with its rich variety of forms in the following chapters. A sphere is a totality, a whole, and water will always attempt to form an organic whole by joining what is divided and uniting it in circulation. It is not possible to speak of the beginning or end of a circulatory system; everything is inwardly connected and reciprocally related. Water is essentially the element of circulatory systems. If a living circulation is interrupted, a totality is broken into and the linear chain of cause and effect as an inorganic law is set in motion. The cycle through the solid, liquid and gaseous phases may be counted among the best known circulatory processes of water. Rising from oceans lakes and rivers, it circulates with the air in the great atmospheric currents round the earth. Where it enters cooler zones, for instance when rising to pass over a mountain range, it contracts into clouds and falls back to earth as dew, rain, snow or hail. But only a small part—a little more than a third of the precipitation—finds its way towards the sea in streams and rivers. The rest dissolves again into the atmosphere and continues on in the great wandering courses of the low pressure areas or other air currents. In this way water completes a circulation [..]

my favorite quotes from we are okay <3

"We were nostalgic for a time that wasn't yet over."

"We were miraculous. We were beach creatures. We had treasures in our pockets and each other on our skin."

"I wish her more happiness than can fit in a person. I wish her the kind of happiness that spills over."

"I listened to the same heartbroken song the entire bus ride home, because it was still a summer when sadness was beautiful."

"She peels an orange, separates it in perfect halves, and gives one of them to me. If I could wear it like a friendship bracelet, I would. Instead I swallow it section by section and tell myself it means even more this way. To chew and to swallow in silence here with her. To taste the same thing in the same moment."

"I was afraid of my loneliness. And how I'd been tricked. And the way I'd convinced myself of so much: that I wasn't sad, that I wasn't alone."

"I was okay a moment ago, I will learn how to be okay again."

tropes that i love that aren’t really tropes but they make my heart go wowiuddbkslsksdij:

- when two people have been best friends for so long and are the oblivious affectionate type that act like a couple without being in a relationship. everyone else can practically see the feelings

- when one of them is in a relationship and it’s great but it’s still differentTM than how it is with that one person in their life that they can’t really label. like when you like your partner but do you love them the same way you love that person??? :’)

- growing into LOVE. growing into a relationship that may not have worked in the past but you love each other enough that you are trying again

- any and every love language incorporated...like words of affirmation? physical touch??? quality time????? give me them ALL

- there’s something so special about healing and forgiveness

- pet names give my heart palpitations

- i think the running theme is just people who love each other and cherish each other in the right way? like having a strong foundation that only grows stronger as time goes on. it’s not about love at first sight, it’s about what has always been there and has fortified into a truly ride-or-die bond that has me on the floor

An almost year in the life of Sirius and Remus's first year as a couple replete with art and tangled sheets, and containing the following: filled sketchbook pages from people lost and people found, terrible biscuits from an excellent therapist, mismatched music records, expensive hot chocolate, a lost brother, photographs (some invasive and some invoking terrible memories), a reckoning with the past, a promise of the future, and yet another ridiculously over the top Halloween party. (57K)

24. Le Mot Vagabond by ironicallyinternational

(It all starts with Peter Pettigrew dying twice.

First, Peter kills Wormtail (discreetly), and then Sirius kills him (less discreetly).

Losing a friend is never easy, even amidst the ravages of war, but losing the last of your childhood alongside him is far worse.)

War is a complicated, messy thing. The Marauders have their fucked up shit to deal with, but they also have each other, and that counts for a lot. (151K)

With nowhere else to turn--his parents in prison, his home a crime scene--Draco reluctantly accepts and becomes a tolerated, if not welcome, member of his schoolyard rivals' and wartime adversaries' family of choice. As pages of the lunar calendar turn and the summer wears on,Draco and the others begin to see each other in a different light. (139K)

29. Stealing Harryverse by copperbadge

(works 12)  

On a dark night long ago, Sirius Black took a wrong turn and never found Peter Pettigrew. Instead of Azkaban, Sirius settled down in Little Whinging to keep an eye on his godson, and hired Remus Lupin to run his bookshop for him. Then one day when Harry was eight, Sirius found out how the Dursleys treated him, and stole him away.

Stealing Harry is an alternate universe version of Harry Potter's life before his time at Hogwarts. It is the story of Harry's family: Sirius and Remus, Ted and Andromeda, Nymphadora, Neville Longbottom, and even Severus Snape, all banded together against a newly powerful Peter Pettigrew who is still searching for a way to resurrect Voldemort.

Laocoon's Children follows Harry through his time at Hogwarts as he develops a very different group of friends: Hufflepuff Draco Malfoy, Ravenclaw Padma Patil, and Gryffindor Neville Longbottom, strange companions for a Harry who was sorted into Slytherin -- the house of his beloved Professor Snape.

This universe ends in Harry's third year, and is partially incomplete. As it is not likely to be finished, the last story in the series is a group of notes I made on where the story would have gone and how it would have ended. (443.3K)

30. All the Young Dudes by MsKingBean89

(4 works)

LONG fic charting the marauders' time at Hogwarts (and beyond) from Remus' PoV - diversion from canon in that Remus's father died and he was raised in a children's home, and is a bit rough around the edges. Otherwise canon-compliant. 1971 - 1995 (557K)

31. Crow Rides A Pale Horse  by tb_ll57

(4 works)

The note pinned to his collar read 'Harry J Potter - please accept'. The Dursleys had left him with nothing else but a pillow sack with half a sleeve of McVities biscuits, a mealy apple, and ten pounds. (618K)
