What you don't see is the line that we've been riding
What you don't know won't kill ya but it's trying so hard
And I've been feeling caught up
I lost the god that's holdin' me down
Took shape in the shade, my little wraith
Really your call though isn't it, doll?
If it's your verdict, who needs proof?
I'm going down
Tell me what you want, tell me what you need
Tell me how I'm supposed to know when all you do is tease
So I'll tell you what I want
Cause I know what you see
While I'm stuck here under you
Go ahead and bury me
There's one thing on my mind
And that's the hunger I feel inside
You will be mine
It's in my nature to be cold
And this wild thing ain't getting old
I can stalk you in the dead of night
I can hunt you by the purest light
There's no escaping when you're in my sights
'Cause i'm a perfect killer by design
I will eat you alive
'Cause i'm addicted to the prey
Do you wanna put up a fight?
Or do you wanna get out alive?
Everybody is picking a side and this can only end one way
Would you get the Devil this dance?
Would you be a part of his plans?
Now you got some blood on your hands
Well, this can only end one way
If you wanna go, this is how it goes
If you wanna roll, heads are gonna roll
If you wanna play, we can play all day
But we play, play dirty, play dirty
If you wanna live, gonna have to kill
If you wanna win, blood is gonna spill
If you wanna play, we can play all day
But we play, play dirty, play dirty

I'd be the voice that urged Orpheus when her body was found
I'd be the choiceless hope in grief that drove him underground
I'd be the dreadful need in the devotee that made him turn around
And I'd be the immediate forgiveness in Eurydice
Imagine being loved by me!
I'd be the last shred of truth in the lost myth of true love
I'd be the sweet feeling of release mankind now dreams of
That's found in the last witness before the wave hits
Marvelling at God
Before he feels alone
One final time
And marries the sea
Imagine being loved by m
I won't deny I've got in my mind now all the things I would do
So I'll try to talk refined for fear that you find out how I'm imaginin' you
I'm coming to get you
My heart is falling faster
Oh baby, I can't lose
My drum is beating harder
And when I break through
I know the world will wonder why
Baby, I was born a rebel child
She clips her wings to walk among the shadows
They say "did it hurt falling from heaven?"
Of all the deadly sins, she's like a seven
They say "did it hurt falling from heaven?"
Tell me, did it hurt?
She broke her halo clean in two, then turned the pieces into horns
Don't say that I didn't warn you
She'll break you like she was born to
Don't say that I didn't warn you
She'll break you just 'cause she's bored

I'm hungry like a wolf
I bleed like a wolf
I'm lost and I'm lonely
I hunger for you only
Don't leave me now, don't break the spell
In heaven, lost my taste for hell
Taste for hell
I'm hunted like a wolf
I feed, I feed like a wolf
I'm lost and I'm lonely
I hunger for you only
Don't leave me now, don't break the spell
Into the wild with me,
Into the wild
Under the stars
Pull yourself from the tar
Black lakes were glistenin'
Use your hand to stop the ripplin'
Now we're still again, so we're setting fires
Burn the rest, crawl on the pyre
Watch the smoke fill the air
The dark ain't goin' nowhere I,
I'm waiting for the slow waxing and wane
I'm watchin' for that soft lunar decay
The night can't hide you
Or the dark that comes too
Sleep with me, worship me
Pray like I'm your god
Find the light in my voice
Treat us like It's blasphemy, pray we don't get caught
Let me be your only choice
Confess to me
I'll be your judge
Promise I'll condemn
Question your belief in me
I'll deny you of salvation
I'll be the reason you repent
Kiss me like I'm a conviction
Beg for divinity in my breath
Couldn't wait to see you from another side
I was on my way, you on my mind
So we, we talk it out again
I was hoping we could keep our love on side
Couldn't lose a friend, couldn't decide
We say we need talk again
So oh, I don't mind anytime of day is fine
Wishing that I'd never kept it bottled up
I was half alive so long
Now my love is lost
A lonely show
And I know it's sad to see you in another light to me still
I wait for your call but you're not there anymore
Listen, sad puppy breaks my heart, he gets to break yours too, so I'm not alone :D

What's worse, being wanted but not loved
Or loved but not wanted?
What's worse, hearin' what you wanna hear
Or hearin' what's honest?
Our love's misaligned
'Cause you're on my mind every night
I ignore the signs
And I don't know why
'Cause, baby, I saw the end when we began
You couldn't love the way I can
I tried to bargain with the stars
For more than half your heart
But you have more pieces of me than the desert has sand
And I have less pieces of you than I can hold in my hand
one could argue if this goes harder for Mer or Jacob, since she's so difficult to pin down
We are looking up to the sky, searching for a reason why
We are holding onto our hope, blinded by the smoke
But we're coming in like a hurricane
Heads down in the pouring rain
We'll fight till doomsday
When the world's in ashes
Lost to all the havoc
Raise our swords, and fight till doomsday
When the earth is severed
We will not surrender
In this war, we'll fight till doomsday
I wake in the night all alone in my head
Lost all focus
Left me breathless
Blinded by the light
Twin flames, two hearts
Can burn out in any second
And twin flames, two hearts
Can implode, live in the embers
Twin flames, two hearts on fire
We're burning together
We burn
We're burning together
I chase the high
I beat you at your game
There's no place to hide
There only is one way
I'll bleed you dry
This is my domain

WIP Whenever | Tagged by @adelaidedrubman @cassietrn and @direwombat
Stopping by this week with a little snippet from Jacob and Mercedes' winter drabble where she truly tests his patience. 🤍
"When, Isaac?", Jacob's question hung in the air, met by silence that made the cabin feel even smaller, especially with the storm raging outside. Dolos had refused to leave his side since he had walked into the house, appearing just as on edge as he was at the absence of his owner.
"I think,", there was a pause, his Chosen selecting his words carefully at the dangerous edge his voice carried, "40 minutes ago, sir."
The revelation caused his frown to deepen as the hand running over the canine's white fur froze completely, "Think? I need better than that, seeing how you didn't go with her."
"She insisted she could handle the drive back, and I had to take care-"
"Did I ask you for an excuse, soldier?", Jacob cut him off.
"No."
"What I thought."
The radio receiver clathered uselessly against the table as he pushed his chair back and hurriedly shrugged on his coat. Reaching her directly had proven unsuccessful. Sitting around while he knew without a shadow of a doubt that the ride back would have taken Mercedes less than how much time had already passed was out of the question, not with his worry only increasing by the minute.
Dolos was right on his heels, gaze meeting his when Jacob came to an abrupt stop in the small hallway, "Stay. I'm going to find her. Bring her home. She's okay."
He couldn't decide if he was assuring the dog or himself of that. But his words must have sounded convincingly enough to her companion, making him retreat to the living room.
"Goddamn it, woman, always so stubborn.", he muttered under his breath, a gust of wind trying to force him back inside the second he swung open the front door.
Cold bit at his face, but he ignored the feeling and pushed forward through the snow that seemed to have doubled in the last couple of minutes and was quickly covering the cabin's previously cleared driveway.
His mood soared as he sped off in the direction of St. Francis, the truck's wipers struggling against the mad flurry of snowflakes that swirled around until he could barely see the road, let alone any animal that might decide to cross it.
Months back, he probably wouldn't have thought twice about Mercedes getting into trouble let alone made it his problem, yet now no matter how much he tried to remain stoic and push down the raising emotions within him, he couldn't.
The white scenery gave way to a smudge of red on the path ahead of him.
A truck. Hers.
The sight caused him to slam on his breaks and jump out of the vehicle, the empty interior of the abandoned ride threatening to extinguish any hope he had about easily finding her.
Faint tracks led away from the passenger's side door, signaling she had headed off down a bent that ended nowhere safe, especially during a blizzard.
He cursed at the snow that slowed his movement, at the fact more was falling and covering her footsteps, and she was most likely lost in the middle of the woods with dusk approaching steadfast.
"Mercedes!", her name was drowned out by the whistling wind, a wolf howling somewhere far into the distance, his guard immediately rising up as he pulled a pistol out of the holster strapped to his thigh.
His eyes scanned ahead, clinging onto the remainders of her reckless detour that meandered around the looming pines.
A small figure that almost appeared as a mirage through the gale beating at his form had him rushing through the dense snow that would have almost been knee-deep for someone as tall as Mercedes.
His strides were determined as his sights set on the silhouette, and he called out her name again.
Jacob had no idea if she had somehow heard him over the persisting storm or had stopped on her own accord, but it gave him a chance to catch up.
His hands grasped her while he examined her from curls covered by a knitted beanie down to her coat that was failing miserably against the dropping temperatures and boots swallowed by the snow piles. Confusion swam in her dark eyes when they met his.
"Jacob.", her voice was barely audible over the howling wind, and whatever she said next got completely muffled into his chest when he pulled her into his embrace.
Her fingers clutched at his coat, body shivering against his.
"Come on before the storm gets any worse.", he commanded with a frown, hand wrapping around her to keep her close and help in navigating the terrain faster.
His thoughts were as chaotic as the weather around them, a blur of possibilities that only grew darker at the idea he could have been late.
Found her-
No.
"Keep moving. Come on, sweetheart. We're almost there.", whatever anger he felt at her foolishness dissipated at how weak she appeared, and before he could think twice, he scooped her up, arms wrapping around his neck as he carried her the way he had come from.
He moved with a new purpose, fueled by the promise of the warmth of his truck.
"You're so warm. So warm."
Mercedes kept her face buried in the crook of his neck, and soon enough, he broke through the treeline and onto the road.
Jacob pulled the door open, quickly depositing her in the passenger's seat before climbing in too and starting the truck.
"Do you know how worried I was?", the confession slipped past his lips, eyes remaining on the treacherous road ahead when all he wanted was to glance towards her and check on her condition.
"The truck died on me completely. I thought it would be faster to walk home before the storm gets any worse."
The dismissiveness to her statement paired with the way her teeth chattered only made his hold on the wheel tighten before he uttered out, "You get into any kind of trouble, you radio for help. We talked about this."
"Isaac... had his hands full already."
"I didn't mean Isaac, Mercedes. You radio me."
She crossed her hands over her chest, "I don't need you to come to my rescue."
"Well, if it ain't too late for that, sweetheart. Would you rather I leave you to wander off into wolf territory next time so you become their dinner? Makin' sure my future Judges are well-fed."
"You're such an ass sometimes."
"I'd take that as a thank you for saving you."
"Of course, you will."
A huff broke free before her gaze focused out of her window, and she settled for ignoring him.
Or so he thought until he snuck a quick look her way and caught her drifting off, head almost banging against the glass.
His arm shot out and landed on her shoulder to stir her up, "Hey, hey, stay with me. No sleeping."
Her eyes fluttered open at his gruff tone, dark gaze filled with confusion once more meeting his, "Jacob?"
"I need you awake, sweetheart."
Her hand was ice cold to the touch when Jacob grasped it in his, despite the heat blowing in the truck.
"Just wake me up when we-"
"I know you're thinking you're tired, but you're not, you're freezing, and sleeping will not help keep you warm, okay? It's only going to make things worse."
He expected Mercedes to argue again, instead, she gave him a curt nod before intertwining her fingers through his. Something about the simple touch stopped his frustration from rising up again.
The snow that had gathered over the short ride back and forth and white flurry on the other side of the windshield almost made him miss the turn leading up to the cabin.
"Stay in the truck.", he instructed as he parked as close to the house as he could and climbed out to get to her side. Jacob dreaded forcing her out in the cold once more, especially with how the wind cut through his clothes, but staying in the truck seemed counterproductive with how much the weather was worsening.
"I can walk.", annoyance was written all over her face upon sensing his plan when he pulled her door open.
"And I'm still going to carry you, so we can spare ourselves another useless argument."
Mercedes eased into his arms after giving him a dark look, and he set off towards the porch with a couple of long strides.
He pushed his way into the house, forcing the door closed with his foot to stop the cold from following them in before lowering her to the ground and kicking off his shoes.
Snowflakes had gathered into her blonde curls, and in another situation, he would have caught himself gawking if it wasn't for the visible shivers and her very flushed cheeks.
"Come on.", his hand grasped hers, and he pulled her along as soon as her boots were off.
Thankfully he had the forethought to light a fire before his call with Isaac so by then the cabin had warmed up, instead of greeting them with its own level of coldness.
Dolos let out a happy bark the second the two came into his view, rushing at Mercedes to nudge her leg with his nose in a greeting.
"Hey, baby. I didn't mean to worry you.", her voice dipped with sweetness as she addressed the canine, hand stroking his head for extra reassurance.
A curt nod from Jacob was enough to settle him back down by the fireplace.
At least one of you is listenin' to me…
He led her to their bedroom, helping Mercedes shrug off her coat before moving onto her jeans that were no doubt soaked through from her improvised trek.
"Ah, now I see…", she quipped from above as he crouched down and pulled at the material, hands landing on his shoulders for balance while his touch trailed down her cold skin. Her eyes shone with a playful gleam when they found his, "It was all a big ploy just to get me naked. So sneaky of you, Mr. Seed."
Jacob rose up, a frown still ruling over his features, "In bed, Mercedes."
"Bossy.", her shaky fingers worked on the buttons of her shirt that was as dainty as all the dresses she wore, "Forgot something, though."
Getting seduced by someone battling any level of hypothermia was certainly a first, but he had quickly learned to expect anything from Mercedes, even when she wasn't feeling at her best.
"We're not going there.", he warned as the garment came undone, a sliver of her white lacy bra teasing him underneath. Goosebumps spread over her exposed flesh when the shirt hit the ground, but she didn't let that stop her, reaching for the piece of lingerie next, "Enough, Mercedes."
"You're no fun."
He shook his head at her pout and forced himself to lift up the covers instead of taking a step in her direction and helping her take off what little covered her body. His own thoughts had taken the same route she had, but he knew fucking her like she wanted wasn't going to be helpful no matter how much it promised to release the frustration he was dealing with thanks to her stunt.
Head in the game, soldier.
"In bed.", he repeated when she remained standing up, clearly ignoring instructions to spite him.
"You gonna make me?"
Don't bite. Don't.
A grunt ripped free, "Or freeze your ass off."
Before he could fall right into the very obvious trap set up for him, he stormed out of the room, her soft laughter echoing behind him, "Yes, dad."
It was another attempt to rile him up, the same way she would throw in 'brother' every once in a while when addressing him in front of Joseph, having figured out how much he hated the word.
Jacob took a deep breath the moment he was on his own in the kitchen, opening and closing cabinets until he located everything he needed while he waited for the water to boil.
He quickly gathered a spare blanket Mercedes kept laying around in the living room for anytime she would fall asleep on the couch while waiting for him to come home.
A look through one of the small windows revealed what he suspected already: the storm wasn't letting up and he was truly lucky to have found her when he did.
"She's something else, isn't she?", he whispered to Dolos when he ambled into the kitchen, "But then again, she prefers to put me through those trials…"
His name sounded from the bedroom, making him tense up all over again with how she sing-songed it.
"Yes?", he hollered back and poured water into the mug she seemed to favor.
Honey as sweet as her tone followed suit, same one he had been licking off her body days back.
Don't go there.
He didn't want to read too much into the idea he had noticed what things she had made hers in the house that not that short ago had belonged to strangers.
"Just making sure you didn't flee into the storm to escape me."
With his quest essentially completed, he set off back to the bedroom, reminding himself he had to be strong.
"I have no idea what you mean."
"Mhm, sure you don't.", a smile was aimed his way when he entered, and a part of him was taken aback by the fact she had complied for once and actually crawled in bed as advised.
Her hands snuck out to grab the cup he offered her and cradled it between her palms, a sigh in content leaving her lips at the warmth it provided.
"Feelin' better yet?", he asked as he spread the knitted blanket over the sheets and took a seat at the edge of the mattress, watching her as she sipped the drink.
"Yes. And don't worry, I won't tell Isaac and the rest about your soft side. It would be our little secret."
His eyes narrowed at her loaded look, "No such thing."
"You made me tea. Just as I like it, if I might add."
A strange feeling appeared in his chest at the compliment.
Pride, as perhaps John might categorize it.
All he could do was stare while she drank her tea, then got up to leave when she placed the almost empty mug at the night stand, "I will be in the liv-"
"No."
He tried his hardest to read the expression she wore, "No?"
"I'm far from being warmed up completely, Jacob.", the way she bit her lip promised nothing good, same for her gaze traveling down his form, "And you were out there too… so, join me."
"I'm not fucking you."
The sharp reply won him an eyeroll, "I don't recall asking you to."
Your eyes sure did.
"I will be-"
"-joining me in bed as soon as you undress? Yes, sounds great. Get on with it. Or are you enjoying sitting around in your damp jeans too much to?"
Sitting around in jeans that he had trudged through knee-deep snow was inarguably far from the worst predicament he'd lived through, and he doubted she needed an actual reminder of it. He bit back the remark stating just that and headed for the door, her voice stopping him in his tracks and trampling over whatever self-control he had left within him.
"Running away from little old me.", she tsk-tsked playfully, "And here I thought you were strong."
"Mercedes."
"What?", an innocent smile met him when he spun back around and erased the distance between them.
"Remember what I said."
"Which part?", she let out a laugh at his narrowed look, "I'm a bit out of it."
He undid his jeans and pushed them down his legs with a sigh then shrugged off his shirt, "Very funny."
"I was about to ask if you had grown shy all of a sudden and want me to look away with how much time you were taking to undress."
Now down to his boxers, he slid under the covers and wasted no time in pulling her close.
"We're way past that, wouldn't you say?", Jacob muttered against her hair, placing a kiss on top of her head.
Her body temperature seemed to have improved significantly as she sank into his embrace and his hand wrapped around her waist on instinct. His fingers spread over her abdomen, the realization they found no barrier of clothing registering in the next second.
"You're completely naked."
Mercedes hummed in response, "Skin on skin, isn't it how it works, Mr. Survival expert?"
"I'm still in my underwear."
Her hand covered his, "A problem with a very simple solution."
"I'm not removing them."
"We shall see about that.", the words were paired with her backing into him completely intentionally, which she played off as getting comfortable, "So… you were already home?"
"Yeah."
Her scent he had grown so attached to invaded his senses, and against his better judgment, he breathed it in like Angels did with their next fix of Bliss.
"Why? Isaac said you were swamped with work."
"Just because."
She twisted in his arms to face him, giving him a solid confirmation she had gotten rid of her bra as well when she plastered her chest to his.
Her lips pursed at the excuse just as the lights in the room flickered, making him wonder how bad the blizzard was becoming, "Try again."
"I was worried."
"About me?"
"About you setting the house ablaze while trying to start a fire."
Fingers pinched his side, making him bite back an yelp at the surprise attack, "Asshole. You know I'm perfectly capable-"
"I was worried about you and Dolos, and getting stuck in the dark if the cabin loses power. Happy?"
Her dimples appeared at the confession, "So you came back."
"And you're lucky I did because who knows what would have happened if I hadn't."
"Natural selection taking its course, I believe, would be the term?"
Jacob gave her a dark look before rolling on top of her and cupping her cheek, "Don't even joke about it."
"Or I guess you prefer culling-"

(WIP) Music Monday / The rules: Post a song that is relevant to your WIP or inspires it. I’m also including the lyrics.
Prefacing the first one by saying it's not exactly THEIR ship song, but more of a Mer and Joseph dynamic song (ANTI-SHIP if you will) and how she sees him as an imposter, a fake that feeds on people, the real snake in the garden. Also can we talk about the album cover and how much it embodies Mer as aesthetic (esp side by side with her updated ship banner), then we have the actual album name that is Santa Sangre = Holy Blood.
Take you time, pretending she's your little concubine
You keep a secret in the darkest mind
You make her smile but she's screaming, yeah, she's screaming
'Cause you're greedy
You take what you want like you need it
Leave her bleeding
You're a snake in the Garden of Eden
[...]
(outro) You should be scared of me
Late night, it was your intention
Got a bible to swear on, well
Not satisfied, old temptation
Listen, I'm a keeper, baby
Honestly, all my life, all my days, always
Survive on your footsteps
Just a cold call away
Your light, oh, blinding me
Like a goldmine unfound
I'm a keeper, baby
That girls a problem, call the police yeah
She's a fire looking for gasoline
She'll steal your heart boy, piece by piece
And make you pay, oh, you better believe
Roaring like a river
Rolling like the thunder
Wild like a hurricane
Wilder than the rush of the flames
She's on Fire
She'll pull you in and never let go
She's dynamite, she's ready to blow
She'll make you never never say no
Taste of desire colors the room
Love makes you crazy, no way out for you
Told you once, told you twice
For what we have done we will pay our price
Watching the nightsky
Sin never tasted so-
I don't want your secrets
I just want your love
Don't ask me to keep it
'Cause I've had enough

The rules: Post a song that is relevant to your WIP or inspires it. I’m also including the lyrics.
In the loneliest night, I will stand by your side
I am not scared of the dark
Every nightmare leaves a scar
Come what may, I will hold you through the dark
Let me, feel the hurt that you carry
I can share in the pain, try to make it okay
I know the wounds I can see aren't the deepest
I swear not to run if you show me your demons
I am not scared of the dark
Every nightmare leaves a scar
Come what may, I will hold you through the dark
This is where the brave become breaver
This is how the battles are won
This is where the weak become warriors
This is where the heros are born
Used to spend my nights out in a barroom
Liquor was the only love I'd known
But you rescued me from reachin' for the bottom
And brought me back from being too far gone
You're as smooth as Tennessee whiskey
You're as sweet as strawberry wine
You're as warm as a glass of brandy
And honey, I stay stoned on your love all the time
I've looked for love in all the same old places
Found the bottom of a bottle always dry
But when you poured out your heart I didn't waste it
'Cause there's nothing like your love to get me high
Heartbreaker
Ain't afraid of her maker, no
Count your blessings
When the devil ain't got nowhere to go
Now she promised me her best
In a bloody satin dress
And i could see forever in her golden eyes
My baby told me lies, I swear i'm gonna die
But i ain't the one biting the dust tonight
Bad bandit
Got some bad habits
And you count your blessings
When the devil ain't got nowhere to go

Going all in
I'm no Angel
And no I don't fall quick
I'm just a live wire
And tonight
Let me move through you like a cathedral
Head underwater, make you a believer
I think maybe he'll kill me someday
Hold me down, baby, and choke out this fantasy
Love is a trap door that leads to a hole
I am a liar, and a thief and I know what I've done
The song is on the short side, but so fitting for them. Like ooof.
Keep talking so you won't see me coming
I know whatcha doing, you don't know who you fooling
I've been running all my life, you've been on the other side
Careful when you pick a fight, and who you're messing with
I used to listen, ask permission
Now I see differently
Set me up like dynamite
I got fire in my eyes
Ah, never back down, I'm a comeback kid
Ah, lost before but I never quit
Ah, look at me now, I'm a comeback kid
Ah, if you try to knock me down
What goes around comes back around

They better be concerned now 'cause it's my turn
And I'm only gettin' hotter
Take a step back or you might get burnt
'Cause I'm a fire starter
Yeah I rose from the trenches and the fumes, got defiance in my bones to the soles of my shoes
Got a thirst for breakin' the rules
You can try me but I've got a short fuse
They better be concerned now 'cause it's my turn
And I'm only gettin' hotter
Take a step back or you might get burnt
'Cause I'm a fire starter I'm a fire starter
Look out for my flames, baby
'cause I'm dangerous
I am a fire starter
Dear God, if I drown myself deep in this holy water
Will it wash away my sins?
I thought, You could help me make myself a better daughter
But it hasn't happened yet
I've taken more than my share of pain
Can't You hear me say Your name?
Can't You see I've got these angel wings
Sewed on to my back with black ribbon
I know You know it hurts my skin
I was just tryin' to get into Heaven
I've been dying to fit in
I know you thought you're in control
I pulled you too far in
And now I know, I know, I'm under your skin
And I'm, I'm
I'm your new religion

All we said is set in stone
Can't forget the words you spoke
Echoing through empty halls
How you haunt me
I always feel you on my skin
Together we bleed
But I won't heal so
Say you'll always haunt me
And in your arms, I know
Oh, I feel you close so
Say you'll always haunt me
One for your money
Two for the show
Three to get ready
Four, I'm gonna go
Raise your glass for the good times
Goin' out with a bang
With a bang, bang, bang
We choose to fight
What's left inside?
You're burning, you're breaking
Tearing me down 'til there's no more
It's hurting, it's changing
Stringing me out, dead on the floor
What's left of me?
You're burning, you're breaking
Tearing me down 'til there's no more
Who's insane?
You're to blame

I'm swimming with the sharks
I can't tell you apart from them, you can't tell either
Will we love or fall in deeper?
Tell me, darling, what's it you want?
As I know, I remain a danger to me, to you
Growing hotter by the moment, dear
And as the days turn idle, sweet on survival
I'm on fire waiting your arrival
I never expect to be sane without it
It's out of my control, you set the play in motion
Couldn't be a bigger ocean
Tell me, darling, is this what you want?
Cold in the water, cold unless you're keeping a disguise
All you could ask for never made its way into your eyes
So very clever, leaving me to wonder what you hide
the song is so very them ❤️
When his mind Is at sixes and seven
And the man yells "Great Heavens", that's when you know
And the Rosemary scent on a bed full of roses
And he still doesn't notice, that's when you know
When the flesh is no longer a painting
And his patience is draining, that's when you know
My fingers intertwined with his
His eyes do tell me everything
My lips are begging for your kiss
Like a whisper
Like the water
And poetry looks like my face
You know it's such a simple thing
You make me feel alive again
Nothing matters
We are lovers
Amarre = love spell. Enough said ❤️
We're picking up the pieces
Shotguns that we needed
Been trying to be patient, again
After all the time we wasted
You think we would be jaded
But oh, we love to taste it, again
Swore we couldn't, but boy we did
Thunderstorms on your horizon
Rolling like thunder
Gonna bring you to your knees

Ship edit | The Deceiver and The Wolf
“I wish you wouldn't look at me like that.”
“Like what?”
“Like you could love me.”
Eheh, look at me finally making an edit for these two... I'm so happy with how it turned out! I always mention what inspired me to create whichever graphic and this time it was a dress. :D It absolutely screamed Mercedes to me, same for the reference pose (this is sadly cut out from the final result because of proportions, but let's just say a thigh is on show all cheeky and Mer so would do that), a total sign to make a little something for them.
Two coloring as always, below I have another darker version of the teaser graphic (it so ended up as one corresponding with Mercedes: all colorful and soft, and the other: red and so coded for Jacob).

Cold sheets
But where's my love?
I am searching high, I'm searching low in the night
Oh, does she know that we bleed the same?
Oh, don't want to cry but I break that way
I've got a fear in my blood
She was carried up into the clouds, high above
If you've bled I bleed the same
If you're scared I'm on my way
Did you run away?
I don't need to know
But if you ran away
If you ran away, come back home
Just come home
I was lost until I find me in you
I saw a side of me that I was scared to
But now I hear my name and I'm running your way
All I feel is I get closer to you
It's my desire that you feed
You know just what I need
You got power (power)
Power (power)
You got power over me
I give my all know, can't you see
Why wont you set me free?
The constellations fill my eyes
It's in your eyes
It seems so ethereal
Oh I thought of you girl
Taught me like a Gemini
Nothing left to lose girl
You my paradigm
Oh I thought of you boy
Caught between my heart and I
Angel in a fistfight
You my paradigm
All that I want is
And all that I need is
You
Lay down your armor
I'll be with you night and day
I'm right in front of you
You, I've been trying to say it right
You, and put it on the line
Put down your gun and I'll put down mine
I need to know
Are we holding on for life?

I got lies, a million
Broke promises that I swore
Dilate my eyes, no whites
Low light under the door
And I know I walk this road alone
I don't know me anymore
Thought I was safe
Got a lock and key
From that evil chasing me, but
Look in the mirror in this motel room
And God, I don't know who I see
I don't need redemption
No, don't save me
Just wash me in your sea
C'mon baby, drown me like you do
Drown me like you do
Hate me like you do
Dunk me in your water
Make me lose my breath
And baptize me again
I get up Get my boots on
Put one foot down in the mud
And this town got nothing left
But the fight that's in my blood
Head to toe, usually I keep it casual
I'm practical
Dare to go
Would you turn the room diagonal?
Unnatural
'Cause she walks like a saint, floats like an angel
Sharp like a knife, under the table
Can't feel my face, I should have stayed home
I know what she's doing, she's a lethal woman
I came all this way just to feel this (pain)
Hallelujah baby, light it up, take your (aim)
Know that I'm coming to get you 'cause game recognizes game
By the way, what's her name?
You lay out your hand I'm seeing a flush
You try to hide it
I'm catching you blush
Yeah, poison
Want some danger
Looking handsome

Ship analysis | The Deceiver and The Wolf | template by @marissources <3 | John and Sabrina's / Calahan and Mary May's
"He asked me, you know. If I've seen anything about you two... I think he wanted me to tell him you're going to be okay."
"It doesn't matter, Sabrina."
"Are you sure about that?"
Mercedes shook her head, her dark eyes misting over, "It matters, but it shouldn't. I shouldn't care... but I do."
I planned to do the template for these two for a while and today I finally felt inspired to check it off my to-do list.
Different coloring under the cut <3
