#104 degrees

Hold Me

[marieslocket]

Dear Beloved,

I've been really fond of this song recently. This is a staple song for me during the summer time, but I've found myself playing it on repeat in the early months of spring. I hope when you listen to this song, you fall in love with me as if I was the girl drinking hot coffee in the blazing sun of a June afternoon. I don't think I'll ever feel the same way I did back then.

SHE ASKED ME WHAT I WANTED AS IF ONE EVER REALLY KNEW AND I SAID DULL DOMESTICATION FREE FROM PRESSUE TO PURSUE

[musimood]

Current Mood:

She says, "I love this song"

Then turns away and tracks the clouds

The driver curses with conviction

While "Heavy Metal Drummer" plays us out

104 Degrees

~

I remember my white flannel

nightgown with the little

pink rosebuds on it

How I burned with fever

How I ached for you

How I begged for you to touch me

How gently you held me

(You were so afraid you’d break me)

How you came to understand

How very much I needed you

To validate me

To help me lose myself in

something besides pain

~

I remember the precise moment

when your hands said yes

Your eyes, your mouth

Affirmations of the flesh

The flannel whispered as

you drew it above my thighs

The little rosebuds bloomed

I clasped you tightly to me as

we trembled with release

~

I remember how you rocked

me as I branded these

words into your skin:

See, my sweet baby?

I did not break

~

moonflower you mean so much to me

104 degrees by slaughter beach, dog but its moonflower best friends soul mates running away together

"She asked me what I wanted As if one ever really knew And I said, "Dull domestication, free from pressure to pursue Another love, another touch, another tired conversation" And then she shut her novel sharply And proposed a new location And at once I applied"

*tries to find a line from brat that hasn’t been used to caption a selfie uhhhhh*

You always say, "Let's go out" so we go eat at a restaurant

A follow up to a previous ask about a headcannon I had about Leo having cold as a PTSD trigger.

Sick traumatized turtles get blanket burritoed for their safety (and to keep Donnie’s migraines at bay).

Due to its getting really hot outside, im starting to think of yandere boys, using it against their darling. Something tells me that Child gonna be extra annoying about it, clinging to his darling like a koala, despite that the literrally melts from all this extra heat.

(sorry for my bad english btw m(._.)m)

It’s sooooo much funnier with the idea of a Natlan/Sumeru darling, because I feel like Ajax cannot handle hot weather, like have you seen where he comes from? Warm is fine, sure, but actual sweltering, blistering heat, inescapable? It’s torture. It was inconceivable to him until he actually experienced it.

As with most mild inconveniences, though, he takes full advantage of the situation to gain you attention and doting, by being as overdramatic and needy as possible. He’s literally dying. His body isn’t adjusted to the heat, have some pity, you have no idea how horrible this is for him, it’s way worse for him than it is for you. He’s grown up in a cold environment, so, uh, the heat feels even worse on a physical level. That sounds scientifically plausible.

The man is USELESS in this kind of heat. Moping, groaning, whining, laying on the couch or floor as close to naked as you’ll allow for casually roaming the house. Can you please bring him a glass of water, since you’re getting up anyway? No he can’t get it himself, he has to conserve his energy in case something important happens.

But yes, this does not stop him from clinging to you. You try to point out that this will only make him warmer, but that’s different, you see, body heat and air heat are different, because they just are, everyone knows this, shut up about it, you’re saying too many words and he’s too tired to listen anyway…

a misconception I see a lot- and have even believed myself! -is, "well, women in western history could only wear all those layers because there was no climate change!"

which is. not really the case, as far as I can tell?

obviously this varies from era to era, but I was looking into historical temperatures here in Boston from the earliest consistent records (1893) and I was surprised to see several 90+-degree days most summers throughout the 1890s (fahrenheit)

now, I am not at all a climate-change denier. extreme heat has been getting more likely and more frequent the world over- I'm fully aware that I'm posting this during what some scientists are calling the hottest July on record globally. that being said, the idea that our ancestors NEVER had to deal with the temperatures we're facing now is factually incorrect for many of the areas worldwide where the clothing we're talking about was worn (and most scientists aren't saying that, I know! this is a pop history commentary, not a scientific one)

the fact is that, in most of the western world, yes, our ancestors did wear That Clothing in These Temperatures. less often and for shorter periods of time, most years, but...it happened! and they found ways to deal!

wonder whose hand that is
