did you have any insp for the recent warm-up? :0

GRINS. YES I DID!!!!

mutuals can tear my flesh open and bury themselves inside my remains to survive the winter -> i forget where i originally saw it but there was a post circulating a while ago about this and its stuck with me since then!! i think its neat ^_^

mutuals can sink their canines into me and learn why we named dogs after them -> dogs are part of the canidae family and are part of the order carnivora + dogs are usually seen as mans best friend and the post is about mutuals (friends), so itd only be fitting to use mans best friend for it (i was actually going to use wolves, based off of their ferocity and the fear associated with them, but i felt dogs fit better ^_^) + im a sucker for dog motifs lol

mutuals can entangle their fingers with mine as they watch the life drain from my eyes -> loosely based off of kondrakis death in yesterday where clef sits down next to him and (literally) watches the life drain from his eyes!! i always liked that part and i wanted to incorporate it into something :-)

mutuals can make me bleed out and watch me turn the same colour as the snow falling around us -> theres a part in this house has mold in it where icebergs brains/blood drip into snow during a blizzard and that imagery haunts me :-)

mutuals can steal my coat from my corpse and be unable to decipher if its just to survive the cold or if they wanted something to remind them of someone who is now nothing other than a memory -> this is also inspired off of something in this house has mold in it!! specifically the part where clef sees kondraki and kondraki comments on him having his coat :-D

mutuals can tie me down like a lamb and slit my throat to drink my blood like a fine wine -> this is based heavily on two stories from the bible!! the part of being tied down like a lamb is based off of abraham tieing down isaac to an alter to kill him before a lamb appeared to take his place, and the part of drinking blood like a fine wine is inspired off of jesus telling the disciples to drink the wine at the last supper and allow it to serve as his blood ^_^
