#i do miss spooks

[thisbluespirit]

For @pers-books for the fanfic kiss meme, for Harry/Ruth + #8 in secrecy.

***

Their kisses are secret, like everything else.  (We’re made of secrets, you and I.)

“Harry,” she says, before she leaves his office.  They’re standing together at the door. She lays a hand on his arm, and his head lifts; she sees the query in his eyes.   (Is it an emergency, a traitor in their midst, or is it this thing between them?)

Ruth shivers, dares to lean across, to kiss him, behind the door, in the blind spot where no one can see – maybe, if they’re quick enough – and pulls away before she departs, clutching files to her chest.  Her lips curve into an equally secret smile.

They meet on benches; they talk shop and pretend they're a couple.  He kisses her right out in the open, a lie and a truth entwined together; kisses her so hard Ruth can barely breathe.

They like it like this.  Too much.  It can’t end well. 

They’re casual acquaintances, running into each other on the street.  The grid is compromised.  What else can they do?

She gives him a memory stick by sleight of hand while they exchange quick, public how-are-yous, and then, when he starts to move on, she grasps his coat. She shoots him a wicked look, and leans in to kiss his cheek in farewell.  They brush against each other more they should as they pass on; she this way, he that.

It’s not normal.  It’s not safe.  Neither of them could do it any other way if you paid them.  Her heart dances.  Next time, it says.  Next time.

(We’re made of secrets, you and I.)

Send me a ship + kiss here!

something something glammike thing where annoying ghost hunters come to the pizzaplex and ask questions about william and the MCI and the hauntings and some influencers rent the place from time to time for that sweet sweet fazclout and this really peeves glamfreddy because Michael knows firsthand that this isn't something you really want to poke about (maybe for the fun of it, and CC's personal suggestion, Glamfreddy makes a snide comment about biting the ghost hunters lol)(they probably know what it means lmao)

Hallo, about the WIPs ask game. Could you share a bit of "covert eyes"? Please. Cause I haven't look into it until now.

And I am exitet to your other writing updates.

Covert Eyes is basically Lucas North spying on a young woman named Amy who he becomes a bit obsessed with. But his job and romantic history begin to cause problems and pull Amy into his world.

I’m up to chapter 22, and Amy has gone missing. She now works for MI-5 after being recruited, is engaged to Lucas, and has told her parents what work she does. But Lucas now faces potentially losing her again. The poor woman has already nearly lost her life once through her love for Lucas.

Dun dun dun……

I’ve decided to finally get off my ass (/nm) and color this beautiful bitch /aff

[theemperorsfeather]

Opened the drapes in the bedroom (they cover a patio door and giant glass window) and the cat almost immediately stared outside and made that creepy little "I want to murder you extra hard" sound so I looked out expecting birds or a squirrel or - most likely - some other cat that desperately needed to be chased off, but it was the local doe and two mostly-grown fawns chilling about 20 feet away.

Running From Your Past

You have a past you'd prefer not to think about, but boy oh boy does it like to think about you. A bad parent, an old enemy, a job that ended in disaster. No matter how far your run or how well you hide, it will find you eventually.(yikes)

tagging for any of these games; @eimiiko @princesstooru @shinixgami @peskyfirefly @mizurei @lovejar​ @amanegi​ @inumakishake​ @tevinterspirit​​ @eludesu (feel free to ignore as always <33)

read horrorstör in 4 hours it wasn’t particularly scary but it was still interesting and the panopticon appearance made me think of the magnus archives haha

i did like the images featured and the way it was designed (i read it as an ebook and i suspect a physical copy would be cooler but it was still neat), and i could feel the way it was set up like a liminal space and the horror it was meant to invoke but it personally didn’t connect with me to spook me or make me feel horror (except about capitalism. but. you know. what’s new). i feel like it has potential to be redone as a good horror movie though tbh, if done right you could really nail the feeling of liminality and horror quite well. but overall not a bad read, just no particular strong feelings for it
