Martial IV.4 // Studying with your darling on holiday in Italy

[reznikxvs]

oh to be at boarding school in england with your tightly-knit circle of friends who share your interests and aesthetic preoccupations - to have illicit adventures behind your stern teachers’ backs as you escape into the nearby forest with your lover - to give your friends special nicknames which reflect your love of culture, your aspiration to something beautiful and dark - to sprinkle bits of the languages you learn and love into your conversations, a way of speaking that brings you all closer. everyone else in the school is slightly in awe of you and your cabal, but you brush off their rude stares with your air of confident mystique.
