i think it is very depressing that like every aesthetic people try to emulate are of people doing things but they themselves are incapable of being somebody that does things… the mall goth 2005 aesthetic revived in 2022 but nobody goes to the mall to be annoying and weird and nobody lets themselves be cringe… the cottagecore aesthetic but nobody knows how to raise gardens or live self sufficiently … the dark academia aesthetic but nobody actually reads books…. The obsession of looking like you are a type of person who does something without actually doing anything … the Instagram effect
Thanks so much for your ask! It’s a question I keep getting ;)
I think Nick would be very classically romantic. He’d take his date out to a restaurant, or a similar establishment, and insist on paying for everything. He’d hold open doors like a gentleman, and make smart conversation, but politely attempt not to stare during the lulls in the chatter. If his partner caught him staring, he’d tip his fedora lower and change the subject. I can definitely see wine and candlelight being involved, but he’d want to go somewhere nice and quiet… somewhere where you could focus on the sound of each others voices. If it happened to rain on the way to the next destination (his place, his partner’s place?) he’d offer up his trenchcoat so his date wouldn’t get soaked to the bone. Maybe if the radio was on, he’d be persuaded to slow dance into the wee, small hours of the morning. 💘
I wish I was a Hellenic pagan so my path could be ✨ aesthetic ✨but no I keep having random norse gods or local spirits battery ram their way into my occult life like it's Black Friday and my spiritual practice is a flat screen TV.
Hello white mutuals. Before you is a charcuterie board with 15 different types of cheese. If you manage to go 12 hours without touching the cheeses you can leave this room. Good luck.
