Was it a happy fourth?
It had been a bad day as I was sitting there in my room when she walked in. She looked at me and smiled, and I returned the same, the best I could. I got up and quickly disrobed, for I owed her. I stood across from her, shifting back and forth, head lowers, as she slowly discarded her clothes. She reached out with her hand and took mine as we both lowered ourselves to the blanket on the floor.
She took both my hands and played back and forth with our fingers, as I tried to fake some enthusiasm, but it wasn’t fooling her. She slipped down into a sitting position, legs spread, as I put myself between them. She moved one of her legs over mine, and curved the other from the other side.
She looked at me and I could tell she wanted some us time, but she hesitated, took me by the shoulder and pulled me into her, my head down onto her shoulder in the crease of her neck. That’s when I knew that she could tell how I was feeling. She hugged me tight, and whispered to my ear, “It’s ok”. It was then I lost control collapsing more into her sobbing. And that’s how we spent our night of being together, as she held me and comforted me, and listened, nothing more. And when the sun began to light the horizon, we rapped ourselves in the blanket and slept. Never once did we separate, as she comforted me and held, till all the bad had left, and we were a peace with the world.
Hikaku, Izuna, Tobirama and Seto from Zealous Zetsu Zooms towards the Zenith
The fantastic @junsui4089 drew Hikaku, Izuna, Tobirama and Seto from Zealous Zetsu Zooms towards the Zenith and it is amazing!
Thank you so much for the beautiful artwork! I love it so much!
DID YOU KNOW I wrote some sad 616 AI Tony/post-SE Steve/real Tony emotional threesome/pining for the upcoming @stevetonyzine? A lil’ snippet.
Steve, Anthony Stark says. He clasps Steve’s hand in his like he is afraid he might be a mirage. Like it is the first and last time they have ever touched.
I am so glad to see you, he croaks, his eyes shining with tears.
Steve has explained that Tony’s god is an addict but it takes one to know one. Steve’s addictions are more acceptable: violence, loneliness, righteous anger. Tenderness, when he lets himself indulge.
Tony dials up his virtual BAC. 0.09%, 0.10%.
A nice start.
0.15%.
He is trespassing. He ramps his own opacity all the way down, flees to the back of the apartment, to the bedroom, out onto the fire escape. He imagines flight the way his database tells him God remembers it: thrilling, weightless, the closest thing to euphoria, frequently indistinguishable from oblivion. The sky claps; a streak of lightning jumps down somewhere to the north.
0.16%. 0.17%. He looks down. Imagines what it would be to fall.
If you would like to read the full piece and purchase the zine (we are now fully funded on kickstarter and hitting stretch goals!), you can pledge here.
When he isn’t in Camelot, everyone seems to know; everything loses its energy for awhile. People wonder if he is well, if his trip is fruitful. Each time he returns there is a mini celebration, people lining the streets to catch a glimpse of their triumphant prince. Somehow he always has a smile, a soft look, a word of encouragement - no matter how tired or battered. He smiles and the kingdom takes a collective breath, grasping at life.
I have the absolute best coven mates - Gray hand bound us books that she wrote for October. Each day is dedicated to a different part of rune lore and has information, a runic poem, and a daily exercise to further the study of runes. Apparently she patterned it after some weird Christian newsletter because “Heathens should get to steal from the Christians for once instead of the other way around.”
