“ CLOTHESLINE ” – fellow hollow | close your eyes, you’re not alone – you’re not alone as long as someone’s home.

“ SOMEONE TO STAY ” – vancouver sleep clinic | at the end of the day we’re helpless. can you keep me close? can you love me most?

“ HEARTBEAT ” – matthew mayfield | i come out of the blue and tell you i don’t know you but i can feel your heart beat.

“ SILK ” – dustin tebbutt | you’re one breath from my body; a satellite with stormy eyes, a heart that feels like running – but it’s all right.

Blair Blackwood was sent to Cheyenne to campaign for his father, offering James Blackwood’s considerable patronage to the leader in the Representative race. In exchange he practically bought a political mouthpiece for his father’s varied conservative interests. He won the man’s loyalty ( like always ) but the on the drive to the airport to fly back to California, his private town car was hit. The hired driver had been drinking and missed the red light. However, the garbage truck didn’t miss their car. The driver was killed on impact and Blair’s left arm was so damaged that reconstructive surgery was impossible, so it had to be amputated at the elbow.

His father blamed him for the accident ( just like his father would have with anything else that went wrong ), as if he had been the one to force the driver to drink. James paid the cost of his medical bills but when Blair started relying a bit heavier on his pain pills, he turned a blind eye. Blair stayed in Cheyenne, a ghost haunting the place his old life died.

He met Gwen when he was locked to a hospital bed for yelling at a nurse after being picked when a drug exchange went wrong and he got beaten for it. She came in once he calmed down, and he begged her to be released. Instead she convinced him to go into rehab and became the first person in Cheyenne to be on his side and want recovery for him.

When he relapsed again, she was the one to pick him up and drive him to rehab when he came down. Gwen was also the one waiting outside in the parking lot when he was released, itching for a fix. Her boyfriend was suspicious of him but Gwen was still the person he went to when he began injecting, when he became scared of the bleeding sores on his arms. She was the one who got him into a shelter when his father cut him off, she was the one to tell him the truth of things and not try to disguise it all under gold.

send me 📝 and my muse will reveal their thoughts about your muse.

his first impression — a kindhearted soul, someone genuinely in touch with her emotions. although the first time they really met was at apocalypse farms, he still recalls his run–in with her in the hardware store a few weeks prior, when she’d stumbled upon him, teary-eyed, while he belted out tunes from hair. from the moment they met, she seemed honest and open and sincerely friendly, and he was excited to see her show up at the garage.

his current impression — hands down one of the best people in cheyenne, and more importantly, one of his best friends. he’s beyond grateful to have her in his life, and he treasures her friendship deeply. she’s strong and passionate and hilarious, and after everything she’s done for him ( searching for paul in the pouring rain comes to mind ) he doesn’t know what he’d do without her.

what he likes most about your muse — her sense of humor — he’ll never forget the time he came back to the country club to find that she’d left a gift for him with ada in the form of a gaudy christmas sweater complete with jingle bells and cat appliques. how thoughtful she is, how much she cares for paul as if he were her own. her laughter. her enthusiasm.

what he dislikes most about your muse —  remember that time she b r o k e his hammock trying to get away from a moth? he does. ( and okay, no, he’s not nor has he ever been mad about it, but it’s slim pickin’s when he’s trying to find something he dislikes about her. ) 

what your muse is to him — a best friend. the sister he never had. 

a general opinion of their relationship — he loves luz to pieces, dude. like, i don’t even have words. he just cares about her so much, okay??

CAMMY—

It’s your turn to bring the donuts to the meeting tomorrow night, just thought I would remind you. Try to get Daylight Donuts, even if it’s out of the way. Or Dunkin if it’s not too out of the way but absolutely no Delectable Donuts, that place sucks. Us alcoholics are very particular about our donuts, I guess. See you tomorrow.

Also if some girl named Indiana starts trying to add you on all your social media, that’s my sister. Block her for me.

— F.

apocalypse.

CAMMY—

Hey, went out for a hike. I would have invited you but I didn’t want to wake you. If I’m not back by nightfall, lock the doors. If I’m not back by the next morning, go to the Springhill Suites and alert a man named Mason. See you soon.

But also if a man named Mason tries to come by the church, don’t let him in. Tell him to f*ck off, actually. Thank you.
