some winter academics bois?
brown, out of fashion sweaters that provide more memories than warmth so you wear them anyways
classics( i mean wilde and wilde only) tucked in to read on public transport
a thermos of coffee and sometimes tea and sometimes just water
second hand books that serve only as props
notebooks, planners, and schedules
tea rings on the surfaces
coffee stains on offwhite shirts
layered clothing to avoid cold but still at the end of the day your bones ache for something warm, something closer
stark contrast of mild green leaves against faded bricks
every surface you touch is cold including your cheeks
scribbles in the margins
shorthanded words on notes and not understanding them later on
sighing and then watching it materialize in the air before it moves and you move on too
rubbing hands together but feeling cold anyways
