podcast ask meme: I AM IN ESKEW.

a selection of lines from episode 1: correspondence. modified slightly for rp purposes.

something has happened to me in the years since i was brought here.

people no longer frighten me. places frighten me.

other human beings are always a welcome sight.

i never shiver at the thought of a ghost, which is after all just like a person, just a little beyond a person, with thoughts and motives that are all too personal for my taste.

i swear, something else entirely was here the last time i walked here.

i have wandered stairways that fell so deep into the darkness that i swore i could look down and see the stars again.

how can i describe it to you ?

i don’t mean to put you off by coming here. it’s been a difficult few months, and the rain never stops, and i am so alone.

some of us find a way to endure here.

it’s peaceful up there. i’m alone with the rain on the windows and the moaning white radiators. 

this is something new. it feels like a step forward. like a proposition. 

they don’t sound at all like i imagined them.

i don’t remember sleeping that night. or the next.

i do recall messages of love both whispered and shrieking.

i know, of course, where i can find them. they’ve never been shy about telling me.

i’m much better now, by the way.

there’s a touch of sadness, in that.

i’ve lost something. a sense of connection, of purpose, of possibility.

something was crafted for me, by this city, and i didn’t have the strength to accept it.

dogs at the perimeter taken from the 2011 madeleine thien book.

someone found you and brought you to the hospital.

it’s funny. sleep feels like the last thing that i need.

hopeless! like trying to find a peanut floating through outer space.

every day, we woke on a knife edge and we ran along it.

don’t be scared. i’m going to fix everything. you don’t have to be scared of me.

yes. on my soul.

i had to add everything together. there was a cost to your happiness.

everything passes. even love. even grief.

how did you get this letter? explain it to me.

don’t cry. you’re here.

it was fucked up, it was unbelievable. it couldn’t be.

you’re my friend. why can’t you understand? i’m giving you this information because you are my friend.

you’ll never be ready. you never had it in you.

the world had grown too large for me, it was asking too much, too much.

see this? this is shrapnel.

don’t be upset. it’s no use being upset. what’s done is done.

everyone is searching. everyone is looking into every passing face and wondering if the next person along the road will be the beloved, the dreamed of. maybe this life is the dream.

you think you’re suffering now. you think you understand, but what do you know about pain? 

the undying are always the most wretched.

children become masters. the bread outgrows the basket.

please don’t do this. i take everything back.

what’s happening to you?

i looked at the world and i thought, “what now? what happens now?” i wasn’t angry. i just wanted to stand there and ask my question. i wanted someone to acknowledge me.

i thought you knew me! you said my name.

come and find us before we disappear.

all this suffering is for something.

but are peaceful days around the corner?

let me sleep a little longer.

only bodies have pain.

keep your peace, that’s what i wanted to tell you. just keep your peace for now.

only a dictator or an idiot would make that claim.

if you remember, will you come and find me?

wars always end. peace always ends. people get tired.

here is the answer: do you want to see?

it was just another war.

[theirtales]

gregory and the hawk   ∕   sentence starters lyrics taken from songs by the indie singer-songwriter from her album Moenie and Kitchi

‘ it’s bad to do what’s easy just ‘cause it’s easy. ’

‘ i want to do what pleases me, but i can’t. ’

‘ someday i’ll find the mind to mend it. ’

‘ it’s a step in the right direction. ’

‘ it’s a tough and final decision. ’

‘ where will i go when i’m feeling blue? ’

‘ you’ve nothing to hide. ’

‘ i’m always keeping faith. ’

‘ this is not the time for goodbyes. ’

‘ it’s too late. ’

‘ try as i might, i cannot forget. ’

‘ try as i might, i cannot love you less. ’

‘ for me, it’s about life’s little pleasures. ’

‘ maybe we both knew it at the time. ’

‘ there’s no sense in losing your mind before your time. ’

‘ it’s a fool’s game, and your game face is shameful. ’

‘ you’re a tireless one. ’

‘ you’ll be back burning when the morning comes. ’

‘ why’d you go and waste it? ’

‘ you’ve got a secret, but you won’t share it. ’

‘ your lips are like little stings. ’

‘ you ran like you never even knew me. ’

‘ fall into my arms again like you always wanted to. ’

‘ it’s harder to see the future so clearly. ’

‘ i’m a better friend. ’

‘ get lost in the rottenness of it all. ’

‘ you’re too much. ’

‘ get a hold of yourself. ’

‘ get over yourself. ’

‘ so you think you do no harm? ’

‘ a curse is what you make of it. ’

‘ i will greet you when someone feeds you sin. ’

‘ i will need you then.’

‘ when i look at my reflection, do i see myself? ’

‘ don’t you run away. ’

‘ some hearts, sometimes, leave blind. ’

I’M OFFICIALLY BACK AND MY MUSE LIST HAS BEEN UPDATED. SHOUT A MUSE ON THIS POST FOR A STARTER.

[theirtales]

wickedlehane:

Faith Lehane was never exactly anyone’s priority.

She accepted this fate a long time ago. Hell, it was a miracle and a half that she hadn’t screwed, stabbed, and staked her way out of having a single person willing to throw a glance her way while she stuck it out in the big house. It was her own fault, and her own choice, that she’d submitted to being legally held in a penitentiary, but that didn’t mean she enjoyed it. She was human too (well, more than human where it counted) and even surrounded by other broken women like herself, she was painfully lonely. Maybe even more so these days, forced to stay behind bars for the ‘greater good’. Not that the bars could really hold her if she got the urge to split.

It was a great surprise, then a relief, and then an emotional constant that Angel came to visit and keep her updated about the world outside. Updated on his friends and their lives (cuz, honestly, Faith didn’t really have any friends. Besides him). She loved those visits- lived for them, even. But Buffy’s visits were different. A little more distant. Fewer and farther between, and it always felt a little unspoken between them that Faith’s incarceration was more of a burden on Buffy than it was a weight off her shoulders. But then again, the brunette Slayer hadn’t been carrying her half of the destiny for some time.

Things were busy as ever in Sunnydale, so of course Buffy stopped visiting. Few months went by and even Angel got quiet. Visits were a privilege, not a right, the guards would remind her. Few more months went by and Faith was all but certain they’d both forgotten her entirely. Fine. She was adjusted to life in her prison blues by now. Had her favorite equipment in the weight room the other girls knew not to mess with when the Slayer came by to blow off steam. So what if Buffy never came back?

Except for when she did. No real warning. Guards said they’d processed a visitor request for Faith. First in months, and for good behavior, they were permitting a table visit. Did the petty part of Faith want to reject the visit? Yes. Did the lonely part of her want to permit it? Absolutely. Didn’t mean she wouldn’t bark about it, though.

“Hey, B- been a long time. Almost ran outta wall space to carve little tally marks counting the days between visits,” she said with sarcasm as Buffy was ushered to the table opposite the inmate. Faith had to keep her hands visible above the table- no touching- but other than that, five by five. Guards watching her like a hawk, but she’d been damn good at playing by the rules lately. Buffy seemed a little somber, so the brunette Slayer changed her tone. “You’re actually the first visitor I’ve had in months so… welcome back. You do something with your hair?”

Buffy wasn’t sure what brought her here. She always swore she’d never come. Something about too little, too late, but deep down, she knew she didn’t believe that. Forgiveness wasn’t impossible. Maybe those around her tried to suggest otherwise, but they didn’t get it. They didn’t understand the burden of being a Slayer. The hero. The Chosen One. No, that was a title specifically reserved for herself and, unexpectedly, for Faith too. Her second counterpart is so different compared to her first. Kendra had been.                  Stern. Authoritative. She’d believed in rules that even Buffy herself wasn’t sure she could follow. Faith was different. Faith was human and, while she might not admit it out loud to her friends, Buffy understood her. More than that, Buffy understood she could’a been her. Their lives were different, sure enough, but that wasn’t fate. That was luck. Buffy Summers was luckier than Faith Lehane. Not better. Just luckier.

That was her mindframe. Or at least, it was. Everything changed a handful of months ago. Thoughts suddenly weren’t important. Nothing was. Not the weather, not the apocalypse. Nothing. For one brief, short moment, Buffy Summers had been completely free.          It didn’t last long. Of course it didn’t. Prophecies never came to an end, not even in death. She soon found herself torn from a place that could only be considered paradise and pulled right back here, to Earth. To hell. 

So, here she was. In a place that’s both foreign and familiar to all, all at the same time. Memories are slowly starting to seep back in. Her father. Angel, Darla. The harvest. The Master. The Mayor. Kendra, Faith. Death after death, after death. Everything. The longer she stays alive, the harder it becomes to stay dumb and deep down, Buffy didn’t want to. She missed her fellow Slayer. There was a mutual respect between them that Buffy could never have with anyone else. Mostly because no one else could ever carry the weight they did. No, that pleasure was specific to them, even if they didn’t want it to be. 

‘ Hey, Faith, ’    the strawberry-blonde murmured, gaze focusing on her peer through the glass that separated them. Faith was angry. Understandable. A lot of time has passed and no one had bothered to keep the other woman informed. Why would they? Buffy’s visits had been a secret. They had no idea this bond was still there. No idea that Faith had lost Buffy too. The comment about her hair has a low laugh escaping and she shook her head in amusement.    ‘ Kinda. ’       Approval came without question because she knew. She knew Faith could handle this. No one else could. Not Xander, not Willow. Definitely not Giles. They thought she was in hell and Buffy would let them believe it for as long as possible, but not Faith. Faith was her confidant. She had been for some time now.    ‘ They didn’t really have hairdressers or salons where I’ve been. ’      Head tilted to one side, watching her fellow warrior close, attempting to gauge a response.     ‘ I died. Sorry. I would’ve let you know sooner, but. It wasn’t exactly on my to-do list. ’

𝒄𝒉𝒂𝒍𝒍𝒆𝒏𝒈𝒆 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝒂 𝒄𝒊𝒗𝒊𝒍𝒊𝒛𝒆𝒅 𝒔𝒐𝒄𝒊𝒆𝒕𝒚, 𝒖𝒏𝒘𝒐𝒖𝒏𝒅 ( 𝟏𝟗𝟗𝟖 )

𝒍𝒂𝒖𝒈𝒉 𝒕𝒓𝒂𝒄𝒌

you should have gone to the doctor

you have too many things to offer

running out of jokes for the audience

you have no one to drive you home

you can’t stand it to be alone

there’s only voices inside your head to keep you company while in bed

it’s no wonder that you’re not laughing with them

you scoff at the notion of a life without interaction

there’s no doubt

𝒎𝒆𝒆𝒕 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒑𝒍𝒂𝒔𝒕𝒊𝒄𝒔

i’m ecstatic to be alive

it’s my pleasure to ignore the lovely people at my door

you always know when they are around

i’m never gonna play again

they came to town and fooled around

𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒘𝒐𝒓𝒍𝒅 𝒊𝒔 𝒇𝒍𝒂𝒕

he was dethroned severely disowned

he battled the king and lost everything

i don’t know if i really want to try

i don’t know if i ever want to buy answers that are lies

he spent most of his youth faced with the truth

and once removed he connects the past

i wish life could be just as nice to me as it’s meant to be

𝒔𝒊𝒅𝒆 𝒆𝒇𝒇𝒆𝒄𝒕𝒔 𝒐𝒇 𝒃𝒆𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒕𝒊𝒓𝒆𝒅

when i hold my breath, your lungs collapse

it all comes back in a hated way

if i said the words, you could sleep now

if i said the words

can’t say the words

𝒘𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝒘𝒆𝒏𝒕 𝒘𝒓𝒐𝒏𝒈

she comes with high regard and she gets what she wants

take your sweet time

you’ve taken so long to make up your mind

it might take your whole life

the motive was not clear

a lack of common sense is where we are concerned

THEIRTALES HAS MADE A BRAND NEW GOOGLE DOCS INTEREST TRACKER THING !  Here’s the deal. I love sending memes. I love plotting, shipping, posting starters. I love everything, but being a multi-muse always makes it difficult to know which character or what fandom to use. I know I’ve made an interest call before, but the idea of having responses saved somewhere sounds a lot easier. So. If you’d like any of the above (memes, plots, ships, starters, etc.) with me, then please take five minutes to complete the interest tracker WHICH CAN BE FOUND HERE. It’ll be much appreciated. Your URL will then be added to THIS INTEREST TRACKER SPREADSHEET. Alternatively, I’m more than happy for people to go through the spreadsheet and add their own urls, but I know that’s a little more time-consuming. Love, love, love. All the love.
