I'm going to asphyxiate xdddd
An authentic experience of me, reading the Silmarillion for the first time, trying to imagine what Melkor looks like:
Me: If the Ainur can choose how their fanar appear, then I bet he'd go for something physically intimidating... Tall, then. Most likely wierdly white-gray pale, too...
Me: Long, dark hair... Dressed in black robes, ooh! What if they pool at his feet when he stands, so it's kind of like he's emerging from a puddle of darkness... and... hmm.
Me: Why does this sound... familiar? W-who does it remind me of...?
Me: ...wait.
I am so sorry.
I'm pretty sure it's like that when I send screens/talk about story/lore to my friends xd
Bleebus Blorbus the Flesh-Rending Giraffe is a metaphor for childhood neglect and toxic relationships, which is very fitting how its E.G.O. Skin-Eater went to Tom Sawyer. Skin-Eater Tom Sawyer synergizes really well with Ten-o-Clock Flash Mob Office Fixer Tom Identity for Bleed and Rupture damage and may also give her ties to The Hat Man in her upcoming Canto.
If you somehow wound up on this one, please consider heading on to the sideblog, which is actually being updated:

I don't know, maybe I'll start doing something here in the future?
writhing, decaying in endless cycles
roles reversed, crumbling in dust enough to cave in the lungs of titans. don't force me to breathe anyway, it's pointless in the grand scheme of cigar marketing. all for standing outside and watching the rays of sun stretch their limbs and lie down for the evening but the true beauty comes when all the pawn shops facing east are religiously nocturnal.
a hopper of trains, we can be out of here, we can be slugs happily avoiding the minefield of saltshakers set up to watch us perish. a tale as old as grandfather's medals, tears stinging eyes, hometown roaches feasting on nuclear Thanksgiving; part the lips and caught the tongue trembling common knowledge. that the boxing gloves hooked on the wall have touched their fair share of tender cheeks and retiring will only cause the maroon to solidify.
nap away the wrongdoings of foreign-feeling nausea. spin the story like a top on the evening reporter's desk laden with load-bearing ash-pokes the size of his ideals surrendering to keyboard gestures of love and floundering reputation.
“Wonderful” is how I’d like to respond
When someone asks about my day
But lately I've found there's nothing around
That appeals to my sense of play
I need something new to believe in
And I suppose it must be myself
There's nothing else to be done
And little more to say
But I've got to get out of the hole somehow
And I'm doing it starting today
Ephemeral blooms
Dress the portico pallid
Yesterday's resolve in soft translation,
Have I always dreamt of fervour
Have I always ached for more
I meet the teasing loss
From where it lingers,
Self evolved lament
It will often be a season
The curious untethered
Reaching out for loves return

I don’t need therapy. I need my husband (archive of our own) to return from war (the server is currently down) and come home to his devoted wife (an ao3 user who was in the middle of reading a gay sex scene). it’s been almost two years (20 minutes) since he (ao3) has been taken from me
The music’s still playing as her feet walk out to the sea At the fringe of a lifetime, as her lips whisper to the breeze Does the world turn this calm or’s it the slow rush of the sea Follow me out here Follow me deep
