    “do me a favour, chris, and don’t show initiative. unless it’s to advocate for the president’s agenda next week, i don’t want to see you on newsnight. i don’t want to see you on cnn or capitol beat. can we be clear on that? i get that you're the new guy around here but leave putting out the house fires to other people for now.”

❛  it'd be great to find a place we could escape sometimes. ❜
it is five thirty in the morning . the cat is screaming , because it has awoken to find it's bowl is ( most likely not ) empty . consequentially david too begins to fuss , a quiet upset starting that heugh can hear from within the nursery past the slurry of what dreams he's being wrenched from sloshing in his ears as he struggles to parse what exactly is going on . he's not alone in that he wakes at this unwanted hour , the shape of chris underneath the toss of their bedsheets morphing their landscape with groggy , shifting legs just beginning to remember themselves , knocking against heugh's calve . none of this should be happening , and they should still be sleeping . he's about to look up beginning symptoms to stockholm syndrome . but the familiarity in chris' fingers as they slide over the breadth of his chest to feel over the make of it's sternum , though , does help to warm him over some , sober him of his sleep's dreary . it's silly . it makes him feel like a boy , how warm he is in his belly . how ridiculous love could be . " it'd be great to find a place we could escape sometimes . " " not too late . you still have time to get out . " " if it isn't this it'll be something else . i might as well stay . " a pat to his chest comes . heugh rumbles . he might as well .

you’d be surprised what even a good man like him is capable of in the right situation.
❝   i would be surprised. that's not really something i want to consider. ❞  there's a slight wrinkling between her brows, above her nose, like she'd caught the scent of something distasteful. and she has, in a way. she turns from phillip without any real dismissal in the action, more looking to reconnect to her previous preoccupation, a draft of some speech she's meant to give reaffirming her position on tax reform. it swims before her gaze, and she gives it a moment of genuine effort before sighing, placing it back down on the desk and glancing back to him with a look of shallow reproach on her face.
❝   christopher's a nice boy. let's not speak anything unsavory into existence, shall we? ❞

“yeah, no, that’s . . .” she says nothing, then, for what seems like a long time, dark eyes lifted from the screen of his phone, the corner of her lip pulled between her teeth in order to chew it rather than having to actually voice an opinion. instead, she looks to try and suss his out from the setting of his features, the silence having hung long enough to be pointed. “um. yeah. that’s . . . it looks cool.”

“excuses-moi,”
Tumblr media
he’s in the city. he hates the city. he hasn’t been since his strange arrival to america, nearly two-hundred years after his near-martyrdom.
“the trains—“ he still doesn’t get cars. it’s all a learning curve. he’d rather be back upstate, isolated in nature, a place where time feels slow, easier to process. “they are underground, yes?”

recommend and review a book.
i’m so bad at reviewing books mikel why would u do this to me
BUT.   six of crows duology by leigh bardugo!    it’s one of my favorite books and definitely one that i’ll carry with me forever methinks.    it’s plopped into the YA genre but it’s not a YA in my eyes <3    i mean,   it is ............. but it doesn’t follow any of the formulas that we’re familiar with and cringe at in a YA.    it’s found family in a world that encourages cruelty,   in a world where love and patience and gentleness and comfort are seen as weaknesses and flaws for survival.    it mixes fantasy and crime in one bundle,   and it’s executed well.    it’s got a sexy heist plot in which six lil dum dums attempt the impossible for $$$$$$$.    each of the characters have their own backstories that are intricately woven into each other and the plot,   and there’s a unique display of how trauma presents itself and how a person lives with it,   and how it affects their relationship with the world.    the dialogue is well written,   the vibes are immaculate,   the level of detail put into the methodology of various crime aspects are Chefs Kiss   ( like,   picking a lock etc etc ).   I JUST RECOMMEND IT.    READ IT!!!!!!!

     𝐡𝐞 𝐡𝐢𝐭𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐦𝐚𝐭 𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐝     ---     enough to make his ribs shudder and spook out the air in his lungs in a heady huff , teeth clacking at impact . he lets out a long groan , a bristly thing he can feel scratching all the way up , smacking at the top of his mouth all dried up in the upset of the match . heugh’s grinning despite that age old complaint rearing up it’s ugly head from the spine’s this and that . he’s landlocked . chris has him this time .     “     fuck you . i want a do over .     “

𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰 𝐦𝐞 𝐛𝐞𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐧 𝐚𝐧𝐲𝐨𝐧𝐞, 𝐜𝐥𝐚𝐢𝐫𝐞.  i don’t do anything without thinking about it first. 
i don’t really believe that you always think first, with me.

"i'm not dignifying it with a response, chris, i won't." she's leaning over the table as if it's a battle map and the weapons of choice are a resounding round robin of hit pieces about her being a lefty shill. that's what the latest fox news hit piece is saying, all because they caught her having lunch with aoc.

" -- logan joy, san francisco chronicle. chris, can the president comment on the length of time between her being put under anaesthesia and the v.p. stepping up? there are sources saying it was seven hours before the twenty-fifth was invoked. why the wait? who was in charge? "
