HEY, WEDDING POST
You step into an unfamiliar dimension, a place with the same strange, starry skies as the circus you know well. This is the domain of Dusk, the realm where symbolism and emotions reign over even nature itself, but that is not important. What is important is the manor on the hill, and the celebration inside the giant ballroom in the center. The roof is a dome of crystal clear glass, the walls are lined with windows and vines covered in flowers. They’ve basically got the whole classic set-up, altar and everything, here, because I have literally no idea if the circus even has a church in it. House church it is, I suppose! I really hope our unclear lore didn’t accidentally cause blasphemy. If there is a church, I’ll probably redo this description.
ANYWAYS!
It’s beautiful. Also, the snacks look handmade in the best possible way. No, there are no alcoholic drinks. The room is lit mostly by candles and the stars themselves.
[OH BOY HERE WE GO.
Same rules as before:
No crashing the wedding until the vows are over. All asks with crashing vibes will be left unanswered until then.
This is, at least until the crashing, an actually wholesome, normal event. Pls no Tw: suggestive or tw: gore or anything along those lines.
I have no idea how a wedding works, feel free to correct me ;-;��
That’s pretty much it, feel free to spam me with asks.]

Favourite writers?
I have so many and not enough time to read!! Actually this may sound absurd but lately I’ve been thinking that the concept of a “writer” is so steeped in modernity when really it’s not the name of the simple humans who spin the fables who are important.
We remember not the human authors of the Egyptian & Tibetan Books of the Dead, the Bhagavad Gita, the Kabbalah, the Quran, the Epic of Gilgamesh, the Bible etc. But instead we remember the content of these higher texts and that the human is a humble vessel for greater and sacred ideas which transcend beyond the petty ego and flesh.
But sorry my crazed pedantism aside, I do have certain authors I love returning to time and time again. I like the Brontë Sisters, Aldous Huxley, Flannery O’Connor, Raymond Chandler, Nathanael West, Dostoevsky, Kafka, Hemingway, Sylvia Plath, the Marquis De Sade (he’s fucked but his writing style is flowery), Oscar Wilde, Percy & Mary Shelley, Lord Byron, Homer, Voltaire, Nietzsche, Amrita Pritam, Rene Guenon, Goethe, Jim Thompson, Schopenhauer, Faulkner, Philip K. Dick, Emily Dickinson, Sappho, Catullus, Euripides, Orwell, Suetonius, Shakespeare, HG Wells, Tennessee Williams, James M. Cain, Poe, Camus, Bret Easton Ellis, Malcolm X & Jim Morrison.
I know it’s a weird list but I tried to include only authors who I’ve read several works by and whose works actually moved me as a human being and English major 💗 I enjoy all types of books but my fave genres within fiction are noir detective, philosophical, gothic romance, science fiction & horror novels.
