short folk-but-also-modern!pogrog comic part 1, inspired by this song ;A;

[ EN text: oh how high is the sky, the starry sky/ do you still love me, darling?/ if i didn't love you, i wouldn't even look for you/ this muddy, cobbled street i wouldn't tread for you/ ask the geranium flower/ how many beautiful nights i've spent with you ]

“Can you, hurt me please?” Tadej pants as he feels Jonas’s gentle grip on his hips. “Wait, not hurt. I forgot the word. Uhm. Do you know what I mean?” Jonas stops. “Hurt... you?” Fuck. Yeah, his English is definitely not Englishing.

HI BELOVED DIDI <3 <3 <3

snippet from a r63 pogrog fic - set in 2021 TDF after stage 7 :-) more under the cut, I couldn't narrow down to just a few sentences...

The perennial problem. All the time, Tadej wants too much. All the time, she is hungry: for sex, for sweat, for race wins. For finding the limit – whatever it is that day – and dragging herself past it with white knuckles and clenched molars. 

Primoz tips her head to the side and watches Tadej’s face as she tells her. “I’m abandoning. Day after tomorrow, I think.”

Tadej’s eyebrows fly up. “Why? Because of the crash?”

Primoz smiles neutrally. “Because you’re going to beat me. No point, then, is there?”

Tadej pouts, disappointed at the prospect of going through the motions without a sparring partner. “But—”

Primoz is mean, but she’s not heartless. She puts Tadej out of her misery. “Jonas will GC now, I’d bet anything on it.”

Tadej blinks at her, not yet recognizing the name. “Who?”

“Vingegaard. Jonas. She’s the rookie, on her first Tour. She did well on the TT.”

Tadej snorts. “And so you think she’s fucking GC-ing?”

“Yes, I do.”

“I don’t even know which one she is.”

“The Dane. Blonde hair, smaller than me. Giant blue eyes.”

Tadej’s brow remains furrowed for a moment, and then she remembers. “Ah! Yes, right.” The corner of her mouth twitches. “She’s cute.”

“They’re all cute, Tadej,” Primoz corrects her, taking a long drink and wishing it could be something stronger.

“What would you call her, then?”

Primoz dips her little finger into her beer glass, just to break its smooth surface. “Corruptible.”

Tadej blanches at that, gaze dropped to the table like something heavy. “Oh.”

“A bit like you, I think,” Primoz adds placidly.
