During the fall leading up to my fifteenth birthday, I came very, very close to committing suicide. Today I turned twenty-five. I had that fifteen year old girl I almost wasn’t sit down with me for a metaphorical conversation.

[Fifteen Speaks to Twenty-Five] Leah Saint-John

Are you alive

Yes

Does it hurt

Yes

Are you glad

[instead of an answer there is a helpless look]

Is it all still green

Especially in June

Do you still love it

Especially in June

What colour is our blood

Garnet

It’s thickened

Yes

Is it a sickness

Yes

What does the garnet make you think of

Mouths God’s mouth The inside of His eye sockets

Are you happy

Sometimes

Is it enough

Sometimes

Are you lonely

Yes Garnet Like God

Did it get better

Yes No Yes Yes

Are you living

Yes Almost

JJK Faerie AU: Compendium

Fair Traveler, I should tell you that it isn't advised to walk too deeply in this forest. Fair Traveler, please heed my word when I tell you to stay on the marked path. Fair Traveler, please ignore the amused whispers in the wings of the trees. Fair Traveler, don't give your name to anyone asks. Fair Traveler, there's a price to pay for believing in magic.

Fair Traveler, you've been warned ー

Here be faeries.

cw. faerie au, 💋 is 18+

pairing. jjk x reader

notes. i'm obsessed with faeries, so i'm making it your problem too. other characters coming eventually but there are a few i have planned well in advance. just a collection of faerie-related fics/drabbles. cw will update as needed.

BANSHEE ー the messenger of death. Female faeries who wail, keen and scream to alert dullahan when the death of an individual is near.

"I had kissed Death's hand and the moon and the stars one by one."

Gojou Satoru

you look beautiful in death's colors in which seelie prince satoru becomes a hypocrite

your love, like birth and death in which you hope a misguided prince realizes his affection towards you is misplaced gratitude whereas satoru finds himself proposing once more

HUMAN ー tragically ordinary, surprisingly innovative. The folk are clever so mortals must be twice as clever to avoid their tricks.

"The rhythm of the rain, The dust of the moon."

Fushiguro Toji

? (hint: Unseelie Lord Toji)💋

SELKIE ー a shapeshifting faerie who switches between human and seal by use of their coat. Should one take their coat, they are bent to that individual's will.

"In the ocean, In the breathing of dales & In the song of every nightingale."

Okkotsu Yuuta

? (hint: You're content with your mortal husband)

House Plant

Be a gift and stand right here:

for decoration,

for sunless spots.

Terrarium homes,

Terrarium habits,

a happy soul mixture— I mean,

soil mixture, and roots—

Soil and roots.

so so so so often I will misread a line of a poem and then when I read it the correct way I'm disappointed because it's not as good.

In this workshop we looked into folded forms and how to fold a form and be able to have it stand without using any other support. We started by making paper planes and get use to the folds to create interesting lines, I made the piranha plane which took a couple attempts but finally got one I was happy with and love the form and how it does resemble something floral. After this I started to develop my own folded form and took some of the original folds from the paper plane and then repeated it to make it visually pleasing. After this I decided to write a poem relating to my index brief by talking about my day to day and what it is like when I go for a walk, In the poem there are many signs pointing towards something that is more understanding like warm drops resembling sweat and cold meaning rain. I wrote the poem in hopes you would be able to visually something that is quite unique to what you think a walk could tale.
