LEVEL FOUR of the faceless ship, after new york's tenuous god is challenged to the ring & a wolf howls in her stead. ╱ SALOMÉ + SAINT ( @warystares )
in the moments after salomé's name is called, their face remains passive ⸺ skin smooth and taut as the water over a scrying pool. a lack of ripples. the reflection of knowing. salomé understands the impulse to fell a god, which is why they see it coming — why she does not falter even when saint volunteers in her place.
it's human nature to tear down the temple, and it's the impulse of the rabid dog to sink its fucking teeth into the intruder.
"do you know why you aren't named after any particular saint, my little wolf, and just the idea of one?" stilled in the snakepit of bare limbs, their bodies stand only a breath apart. the room grows jagged with the call of hungry, demanding men, and she makes no effort to raise her voice. "because i am not any one god, i am all of them. and you were made to answer my call, in whatever form i take. ⸺ now you fight in my name," her voice lilts, a single octave higher, the ring of near-sweetness in the scent of blood. fingers slide idly over the line of a torso. her hum, the sound of ringing ears. "are you going to lose?"

"Can we have that contact with God all the time? All the time awake, fall asleep in His arms, and awaken in His presence. Can we attain that? Can we do His will all the time? Can we think His thoughts all the time?... We do not think of one thing. We always think of the relationship of at least two things, and more often of three or more things simultaneously. So my problem is this: Can I bring God back in my mind-flow every few seconds so that God shall always be in my mind as an afterimage, shall always be one of the elements in every concept and percept? I choose to make the rest of my life an experiment in answering this question."
~Dr. Frank C. Laubach
