madsillustrated // "Guard Down."

[silver-trees-and-promises]

A glimpse of something silver through the trees... a figure who moves with the grace of a butterfly.

Ah, strange to see someone in this forest.

Hm? Guardian, me? No, young cookie. Not anymore... that title belongs to another.

How am I here? To tell the full truth, I am uncertain... nor am I certain if one can truly call what happened "revival".

I am... not certain how this all works, so do your best to be patient with me. I am unsure what exactly I am supposed to write...

Ah, I do have a few things you may want to know.

I have not returned to the Faerie Kingdom since returning... I spend most of my time learning magic that I previously had either no time or no need for.

(NEW LORE!) I am lucky enough to be engaged to Silent Salt, mi luna, the night to my day... I cannot wait for eternity together.

My wings do not work very well. I can fly, but it hurts if I try to do so for too long. A consequence of not using them enough, I assume.

Since I began my travels, I have seen many white butterflies near me... I believe they are a symbol of rebirth or visiting spirits, but I am unsure why they follow me.

Now... we must cover a... less interesting, but more important topic.

Do NOT interact with me if you support the discrimination against any orientation, gender, race, or religion, or any other -isms.

Now with all that out of the way...

Faeries give flower crowns to people as a courting ritual, a fancy flower crown is the equivalent of a proposal.

Elder Faerie's hair is really soft and faintly smells like the air after rain.

When he cries, little purple flowers called faeries' tears grow where his tears land. Some people say these can soothe heartbreak, but that's not true. They do, however, make a good tea that reduces anxiety.

This man's main form of coping is ignoring his feelings until they explode. The personification of "I can't be sad I have a lot of adulting to do".

He loves classical music and plays piano, but he also listens to some of this for the feels.

I Let my Guard Down

You had me thinking a lot baby, when I should have just been busy loving you. It was all sweet talk. It was too sweet though, stupid me, right? I should have known all along. I should have known better. I was in denial, I didn't want to see it, I liked the fantasy, so I decided to live there for a while. 

I was gambling all along, and my young years were always at stake, I was ready to give them for you baby, I had my doubts, sure, but I had faith too. 

Now I wish I had never let my guard down.

Letting down your walls and being vulnerable is terrifying
