Tide & Temptation

The ocean moans beneath me,

a slow, aching rhythm,

waves licking at the edges of dawn,

pulling night’s whispers into its depths.

Gold spills delicately across the ocean,

tracing warmth along my skin,

soft, deliberate, knowing,

like fingertips following the curve of a gasp.

I let go.

Let the hush of the tide take me,

let the sun slip between my parted lips,

let this moment, bare, breathless

wash over me, drown me sweet.

Nothing else exists.

Just the pulse of water, the sigh of sky,

and me

undone in its hands.

Sweet surrender 💛

The warm glow of sunset kisses the top of Devil's Tower, standing tall against a pastel sky. Below, a field of frost-touched grass adds a layer of tranquility to this serene landscape.

Lena losing her patience and furiously berating Gwen for potentially endangering the staff members of the OAIR is quite literally the opposite of how Elias ran the Archives.

Elias used the Archival staff—as well as his Archivist—as pawns that can be readily replaced as needed. His patron offered them minimal protections at best (the Archivist’s privileges notwithstanding), and even then, he would never actually intervene to save any of them if they were in danger, much less take precautions to protect them at their headquarters. They are used as bait, as sacrifices, as currency, as objects. The listener knows, eventually, how easily he could discard them if his plans called for it.

But Lena. This episode showed us that Lena keeps her entire organization running through keeping her subordinates hidden, safe, and unnoticed by the Externals. It’s quite clear through her conversation with Gwen that such a safety risk has never happened before.

As far as we know, Lena has successfully kept all of her employees alive, watched them come and go, bemoaned the turnover rate, and then got them to look the other way while they documented and dutifully filed the horrors.

But most impressive of all, she’s kept her real work hidden from her subordinates, and her subordinates hidden from her real work—a feat Elias had no interest or desire to accomplish.

Talking to the moon, and I'm not alone.

Her light spills secrets across the night,

A quiet keeper of dreams unspoken,

Where the edges of silence blur into the infinite.

Loving this beauty on the open water 💛
