THIS IS HOW YOU LOSE THE TIME WAR by Amal El-Mohtar and Max Gladstone
I want to be a body for you. I want to chase you, find you, I want to be eluded and teased and adored; I want to be defeated and victorious—I want you to cut me, sharpen me. I want to drink tea beside you in ten years or a thousand.

↳ “But when I think of you, I want to be alone together. I want to strive against and for. I want to live in contact. I want to be a context for you, and you for me.

i want to be a body for you. i want to chase you, find you, i want to be eluded and teased and adored; i want to be defeated and victorious—i want you to cut me, sharpen me. i want to drink tea beside you in ten years or a thousand. flowers grow far away on a planet they’ll call cephalus, and these flowers bloom once a century, when the living star and its black-hole binary enter conjunction. i want to fix you a bouquet of them, gathered across eight hundred thousand years, so you can draw our whole engagement in a single breath, all the ages we’ve shaped together.
