clinging onto sin [hiatus]

white woman from the source material played by a black woman on screen who was the first love interest

“Consider: Instead of killing a black woman so that a white girl can replace her and raise her children, we kill the white man. Yuri-ify Eloise's season, too. Fuck it, EloisexMarina endgame for s5, why the hell not. Think about the absolute power move that would be back-to-back lesbian bridgerton seasons”

since u asked i will go ahead and link my lbxd review which gets at my complaints at some length! lol

pet peeve that happens more often than you would both think and want

HAPPY PRIDE! 🌈

The torturer stepped back instinctively. Not out of mercy. Out of surprise. The prisoner laughed. Not loudly. Worse than loudly. Softly. Like he had just remembered a private joke older than civilization.

“You still think pain is a language,” he said.

Another blow. This time across the mouth. Teeth cracked. Blood sheeted down his chin in long ribbons.

The interrogator hissed through clenched teeth. “Tell me where God went.”

The prisoner turned his head slowly. There was blood in his smile now.

“There are organisms,” he said, “living beneath Antarctic ice that have never seen the sun and have still learned how to eat.”

The room had gone very still. Somewhere in the dark, machinery groaned.

The interrogator grabbed him by the jaw hard enough to bruise bone.

“You think this makes you immortal?”

The prisoner spat a clot of red onto the floor between them.

“No,” he whispered.

“I think it makes you temporary.”

The torches flickered.

For one impossible second, the interrogator became aware of his own pulse. The heat in his veins. The soft wetness of his eyes. The damp animal electricity inside every living thing. The prisoner watched realization bloom across his face and smiled wider, blood running between his teeth.

“You cannot threaten a creature from the dirt,” he said, “with returning to the dirt.”
