//So my dumb ass has been MIA for a while. I'm going to chalk it up to a fickle muse and lack of confidence in my writing. I'm going to try my best to be more active. And here's to hoping my writing actually improves.

Lydia walked holding her husband's arm, frequently glancing back to make sure Catherine was still there. On days where Catherine wanted to be more independent, Lydia was always on edge. Especially when the streets were this busy. Typically Catherine walked in front of them, but to avoid her getting trampled, she was behind them today.
She gripped Alexander's arm tighter, her attention shooting to the crowd, "I have no idea, but whatever it is must be something big. I mean, if a man who dresses as a bat and a clown fighting in the street is just a normal thing, then this many people..." her voice trailed off, "I don't know, but maybe we should have Catherine walk between us now?" she turned to look back at Catherine and stumbled, stopping in the middle of the sidewalk, "Alex? I-I can't see her."

It was mid-afternoon in Gotham, and the streets were as busy as ever. One of the more popular store chains was having a big sale, and big sales meant big crowds, and plenty of deep pockets to go around. 
Crow never took more than she needed at any given moment, but right now she needed a lot. She hadn’t eaten in at least twenty-four hours, and if she could get her hands on some money, she’d be able to afford enough to tide herself over for at least the next few days.
She hid among one of Gotham’s many alleys, turning a gear on her prosthetic leg. Everything was in check, all she needed to do was wait until the right mark showed up. 
Leaning against her cane, she scanned the crowds. Her eyes locked on a group of people chatting excitedly among themselves. A few of them had cameras, and one was taking pictures of the aforementioned store.
Tourists; excited. Distracted.They might have money to pick, but they were quite far away. She’d have to wait for them to come nearer the crowded entrance, but they did seem like her best bet at the moment.
She could wait- after all, she had all day. It wasn’t like there was anything or anyone to distract her.

Lydia sat down next to him, "Normally, I would. But, Alex is sleeping. And since I can't sleep, I don't want to wake him up. It's no one's fault but my own that I can't sleep." she paused, "Honestly, I didn't know if anyone else was awake. But it's nice to have someone to talk to."
"Can't sleep?" ~Lydia
Tumblr media
“…I don’t really sleep at all anymore, it feels like.”  And yet he was constantly tired… just not tired enough to sleep.  That was something that had always confused Peter about vampires, even during his film career.  When they retired to their coffins to apparently hibernate for years upon years, did they do it because they needed the rest?  Because they felt safe enough to hunker down in their castle fortresses for years?  Because they were bored or satisfied with the day’s conquest?  Why would they even have to consider it, being the physically superior beings to humans in almost every way thanks to their occult spirits?  No doubt all of these had answers that he was overlooking, what with his head feeling as though it had been stuffed with cotton and his eyes rubbed over with petrol jelly…
“But you don’t need to lose sleep over me, my dear.  You should keep your husband company.”

//I'm making this post as an explanation. My depression and anxiety have been kicking my ass lately. And some days it's not so bad, but as a result, I haven't had the mindset or energy to write for any of my rp blogs. And I wanted to apologise. Hopefully I'll get that energy back soon, but just know that I'll probably be a bit slow on replies and the like for a bit longer. I appreciate all of you for putting up with me. ❤

Me: I need a library card, but I just moved so I don’t have an ID with my address or any mail with it.
Librarian: -slides me a blank library postcard- Write your address on this like it would be mailed to you.
Me: Sure?
Librarian: -takes it back- Great! Now we have mail with your address on it!
Me: …does it really work that way?
Librarian: the rules don’t say it DOESN’T work that way. Here’s your new library card!

Did my letters not satisfy you? They evoke pleasure and pain in equal measure.

But I have nothing to give you. My hands are empty. Not empty now.

I still have yet to experience fall, but dang if it isn’t such an aesthetic
This style is incredibly nice to draw with…just wanted to unwind because this week has been terribly stressful, and sometimes one would just like wellenore drinking coffee on a fall afternoon. And as simple as the background is, I really liked how it turned out.

"I was arrested for theft. But, it's not all bad. I wouldn't have met Alexander if I hadn't been arrested." she hesitated, "I wanted to call you when I got my phone call, but I was scared. My fear got the better of me, and I didn't want to risk being disowned by someone I cared about."
"Remember me?" ~Lydia
Tumblr media
“Lydia, my dear, of course I remember you,” Peter beamed,bending over her hand and pressing a kiss to the back of it… noticing a ring onher finger with white and blue stones. Well, well, well, how time did fly… it seemed only yesterday she was ascared university student sleeping on his couch and devouring his bookshelves.  “You seem to be doing very well for yourselfthese days!”

Lydia leaned back in her chair, "Well, the man I loved almost died during a job, and I hadn't told him I loved him yet. And that was when it really hit me that I was tired of running. That I didn't care about people knowing who I was. I realized I'd rather give back everything I'd take than lose him." she straightened, then took a sip of her tea, "Of course, it wasn't easy, I'm not saying it was. But it's the truth."

“How did you get out? I feel so caught in the cycle that the end is quite possibly a dream, and nothing more. I almost miss the small breaks I could capture before having to run away again, like some jackrabbit during a hunt.”
