“This is not what the door’s for—slamming you up against, opening your legs with my knee. And it isn’t leaving, the thing I keep doing with my shoes still on, or in the car in the driveway in broad daylight after waving goodbye to your neighbors again. But my body’s a bad dog, all dumb tongue and hunger, down on all fours again, tied up outside again, coming when called but then always refusing to stay. I know what I’m trying to say, but it isn’t talking, the thing that I do with my mouth to your ear, even though we got the orifices right. To leave I would have to put clothes on, and they’d have to fit better than all of this skin. To leave I would have to know where to begin: like this, pressed up against the half-open window? Like this, with my foot on the gas? If seeing is believing then why isn’t touching knowing for sure? I just want my nerves to do the work for me, I don’t want to have to decide. There’s blood in my hands for fight and blood in my legs for flight and nowhere a sign. Believe me, I’ll leave if you just let me touch you again for the last last time.”

I’ve been rereading your story. I think it’s about me in a way that might not be flattering, but that’s okay. We dream and dream of being seen as we really are and then finally someone looks at us and sees us truly and we fail to measure up. Anyway: story received, story included. You looked at me long enough to see something mysterioso under all the gruff and bluster. Thanks. Sometimes you get so close to someone you end up on the other side of them.

fascinating that when you tell people "you have to learn the rules to break them" when talking about drawing/painting etc everyone nods and agrees but the second you say "you have to read books if you want to write better" there's a horde of contrarians begging to be the wrongest people ever all of a sudden

Hi, I have fantastic news! I've set up an inprnt shop!

For the @codywanfirstkissbingo, I had "butterfly kiss" on my card.

I wanted to do a close up of lashes brushing against cheek but it was a nightmare and it ate all my remaining time until the deadline.

I turned it on its head later on by... putting in butterflies 😆

A great deal of thanks, again, to the mods of the bingo: @lttrsfrmlnrrgby @dontbelasagnax and @notthestarwar.

And @thesunlikehoney who asked after that particular WIP. (So many left... T_T)

Cody: Count Dooku really seems to hate us Obi-wan: Maybe he's homophobic Cody: We're not a couple, General Obi-wan: We're not? Rex: You're not?
