Idyllic Fairytale

-Jessica @adrowningophelia

“I don't remember clouds when we were young. Were there any, my dearest Mina? Just beyond the horizon, perhaps? Or was it all seashore and sandcastles? Such a thought is naive, I know. But aren't memories always that?”

“You can't change who you are, no matter who you save or who you love.”

“Natural grace, unschooled by society... That's the greatest gift, isn't it?”

“Postscript. Your father loves you very much and will do anything to save you. But I love you in a different way. I love you enough to kill you.”

“I think Mr. Gray, there are tremors around us, like the vibrations of a note of music - hidden music. Some may be more attuned to them than others... What do those people do? Those who have been chosen?“

“Do you believe there is a demimonde, Mr. Chandler? A half world between what we know and what we fear. A place in the shadows, rarely seen but deeply felt. Do you believe that?”

 “No one is going to hurt you. No one is ever, ever going to hurt you.”

The problem with time, I've learned, whether it's those first two weeks I got to spend with you, or the final two months I got to spend with him, but eventually time always runs out. I have no idea where you are out there in the world, John. But I understand that I lost the right to know these things long ago. No matter how many years go by, I know one thing to be as true as it ever was - I'll see you soon then.
