a reminder that i am not always aware of what is happening in the rpc, behind the computer, or what someone may be doing — please never hesitate to let me know if i have been unknowingly interacting with someone known to be toxic, harmful, dangerous, or someone who is doing inappropriate behaviors that i may not see. (sometimes i do not see posts due to timezone differences, or i am simply not online.) this blog is & always will be a safe space above anything else, & i will always try to make my mutuals (& myself) happy & comfortable. always.

gracie said amelia would be the type to accidentally come across a hellhound (probably near a graveyard or crossroad), not have to sell her soul, & just have it as a guardian that comes around at night sometimes ......... could u imagine coming to her porch & seeing this giant raven-black hound with piercing scarlet eyes sitting near her as she reads under the moonlight

[everlament]

amelia's inner thighs are very sensitive . . . . nip at the skin there, bite, leave marks; she will squeal & squirm & may even tear up if you tease her too long :/

also! her breasts are very sensitive as well . doesn't mind them being squeezed roughly (not too rough, of course) or bitten.

would love lovebites / hickies in the shape of a heart <3

doesn’t mind a hand around her throat either — not choking or squeezing, but just there (if that makes sense) . do what u want with this information x

thinking of this excerpt & amelia .

she walks towards the audience & opens her mouth, trying to speak. there is a great humming noise.

she opens her mouth for the second time, attempting to tell her story to the audience. there is a great humming noise.

she closes her mouth; the humming noise stops. she has a tantrum of despair.

“What is a ghost? A tragedy condemned to repeat itself time and again? A moment of pain, perhaps. Something dead which still seems to be alive. An emotion suspended in time.””

— Guillermo del Toro, from the screenplay The Devil’s Backbone (Anhelo Producciones, 2001)

“So to talk about trees is to talk about our attachment to them. Our longing for them to be okay. To talk about trees then is also to talk about each other, the ways we are attached to what is living and how much we want it to go on doing just that for as long as possible. It is never only trees, but what binds us together, the trees, the roots, the eternal part of us that is both the seed and the tree.”

— Ada Limón, from Shelter: A Love Letter to Trees

amelia & the jewelry most important to her / most worn. (so if you want to talk to her about something but don't know what, just ask her about these & she'll light up!!)

𝓲. necklace with three bronze coins ━━━ all three coins are roman era in terms of antiquity; found when she & her family traveled to essex (england) & she explored the nearby bradwell-on-sea, where an ancient roman fort (othona) was once settled upon the shoreline. at first, each coin was gifted to each of her siblings: one for arthur, one for ana, & one for herself. when her siblings passed, all three coins were passed onto her & placed onto a necklace; she has worn it ever since.

(yes, i used the sims for reference...) wears it nearly every single day, only taking it off when bathing or sleeping. likes to rub her fingertips over the surface of the coins when thinking, stressed, or wishing to connect with her passed siblings. if she is in a place with heavy negative spiritual energy, it acts as protection from the other side to ground her (bronze is often used to symbolize the earth & strength). not just that: but three is a very powerful number in terms of manifestation & folklore (three wishes, three guesses, etc) & represents the past, present, & future. will possibly breakdown & wail if she cannot find this necklace, just a warning.

𝓲𝓲. protection ring ━━━ silver & handmade by a close friend who knows of her gifts, designed with the witch's knot. whenever she visits areas of heavy energy, or places where many tragedies occurred, this ring is worn to ward / banish negative energy, acting as a mini-charm of protection. if someone is with her, she will let them wear it to protect them before herself. otherwise, worn on her thumb.

𝓲𝓲𝓲. vintage key necklace ━━━ though one of her favorites, she only wears this when exploring graveyards or cemeteries; just feels right. the key itself is passed down from her paternal side, all the way from 1807. though it's a bit faded by time, it's made of pure bronze & heavier than it looks, but she likes to balance it within her palms to ground herself. she especially appreciates the small floral design & cleans it regularly. for some reason, many spirits seem to like it, too. (will comment on it, ask about it, tug at it. she's not sure why.)

𝓲𝓿. silver bracelet with various charms ━━━ starting out as a simple silver chained bracelet, it now holds almost all of the heart-shaped charms / trinkets she has found throughout her life, from childhood to now. some come from antique stores she has visited in her travels, while some even come from her great-grandmother, so she keeps this safe & polished.

𝓿. forget-me-not earrings ━━━ her favorite flower! (plus, the symbolism is very... her, from my point of view.) a birthday gift from her grandmother, it is decorated with pale blue glass flowers & freshwater pearls. she adores these.
