sometimes i think about narnia and i vibrate out of my skin like...
you walk into a world you cannot understand, frozen and dying, and it is you who thaws it. you who kills the witch, you who breaks the stone table, you who slays the wolf. it is you who is crowned and it is you who wails for two worlds when the wardrobe doors shut behind you.
your skin never sits quite right and your teeth are too dull. there are wars in your bones and decades in your eyes before you can reach the telephone on the wall.
you are king. you are queen. they won't let you read the newspapers at breakfast.
it calls you back from beyond a train and from within paint. begs with bloody palms and salt-crusted cheeks. takes from you all that you can give - and sends you back.
you watch your sister fade.
you are a child twice and an adult once. and when you stand in your home again, with crushed bones and the smell of coal still in your nose, you watch them sneer at your sister.
your sister is the sun above you. she is, beautiful and stone-cast, alive in a world you could never stomach. she smiles, still, and stretches her skin over human bones.
she is no longer a friend of narnia. do you tell them it is her who has to bury you all and the stars that are falling from the skies in shards?
“Fuck you, my child is perfectly fine!”
Me, not being able to live without daydreaming about my emotional support goth villain:

anyone who thinks they’re in bucky barnes’s arms instead of going to therapy clap your hands

Gáttir allar áðr gangi fram um skoðask skyli, um skyggnast skyli, því at óvíst er at vita hvar óvinir sitja á fleti fyrir
— Translations — Within the gates | ere a man shall go, (Full warily let him watch,) Full long let him look about him; For little he knows | where a foe may lurk, And sit in the seats within.
-Translated by Henry Adams Bellows
At every doorway, ere one enters, one should spy around, one should pry around, for uncertain is the witting, that there be no foeman sitting, within, before one on the floor.
-Translated by Olive Bray
At every doorway before you enter, you should look around, you should take a good look around — for you never know where your enemies might be seated within.
-Translated by Jackson Crawford
Regarding each opening, before proceeding, it pays to be cautiously hesitant; one can’t know for certain where possible assailants may be lurking in the rooms ahead.
-Translated by Douglas Dutton
Have thy eyes about thee When thou enterest Be wary alway Be watchful alway For one never knoweth When need will be To meet hidden foe in the hall
-Translated by Lee M. Hollander
All door-ways, before going further, should be looked to; for difficult it is to know where foes may sit within a dwelling
-Translated by Benjamin Thorpe

i was so scared for him
the soc specific part of the grishaverse fandom is the only part of the fandom that i think actively ships all the canon ships. leigh bardugo wrote three romantic relationships that were so powerful it killed any chance of discourse. amazing.
