true romance really is like. you were created to destroy me but we're mirrors of each other and now i'm the one who has to grieve you. your death drives me mad with the need to prevent my own but i can't. of course i can't. you couldn't, and we're the same, after all

People who hiperfixate on Epic of Gilgamesh, Iliad/Oddysey and The Bible are actually the coolest mfs out there. Like yess pleasee draw more Gilgamesh x Enkidu fanart, write more Achilles angst, call Jesus of Nazareth your babygirl, nothing makes me happier.
