“This world that was our home for a brief spell never brought us anything but pain and grief; its a shame that not one of our problems was ever solved. We depart with a thousand regrets in our hearts.” ― Omar Khayyám

We are no other than a moving row of magic shadow-shapes that come and go.

“To wisely live your life, you don't need to know much Just remember two main rules for the beginning: You better starve, than eat whatever And better be alone, than with whoever.”

"Good friends beware! the only life we knows Flies from us like an arrow from the bow, the Caravan of life is moving by, Quick! to your places in the passing show.”

This fic now has an epilogue!

Go on, give it a whirl

It’s shipping, but it’s Dr. Gurathin/Murderbot/Asshole Research Transport: so it’s a ship ship! Also there’s Ship (who indulges in shipping)

It has original art, and also poetry from The Rubáiyát of Omar Khayyám and The Tempest, and even a quote from Anakin in Attack of the Clones (bonus points for spotting that!)

VII.

Come, fill the Cup, and in the fire of Spring

Your Winter garment of Repentance fling:

The Bird of Time has but a little way

To flutter—and the Bird is on the Wing.

A jug of wine A leg of lamb And thou! Beside me Whistling in the darkness

“Invoke Often! Inflame thyself with Prayer!” --Aleister Crowley Supplication by mendezmendez

The Moving Finger writes; and, having writ,

Moves on: nor all thy Piety nor Wit

Shall lure it back to cancel half a Line,

Nor all thy Tears wash out a Word of it.

Up from Earth's Centre through the Seventh Gate

I rose, and on the Throne of Saturn sate,

And many Knots unravel'd by the Road;

But not the Knot of Human Death and Fate.

There was a Door to which I found no Key:

There was a Veil past which I could not see:

Some little Talk awhile of ME and THEE

There seemed---and then no more of THEE and ME.

Then to the rolling Heav'n itself I cried,

Asking, "What Lamp had Destiny to guide

"Her little Children stumbling in the Dark?"

And---"A blind Understanding!" Heav'n replied.

With Earth's first Clay They did the Last Man's knead,

And then of the Last Harvest sow'd the Seed:

Yea, the first Morning of Creation wrote

What the Last Dawn of Reckoning shall read.

--The Rubáiyát of Omar Khayyám, 1913

"Affection, love, understanding - these are the foundations of life. We write with love the poem of adolescence. With the music of love, we orchestrate the great song of existence. And you, faced with tenderness, impervious to feeling, learn this truth: Life is Love, and nothing else!"

(Rubáiyat)Omar Khayyám)

“When Allah created me, he knew that I would drink a lot of wine. So if I didn't, the omniscience of Allah would stand on its head.” ― Omar Khayyám, Rubaiyat De Omar Khayyam...
