widojest 4: after the end 🍎

“Love is putting another person before yourself. Love means doing what's best for the other person, no matter what it means for you. Love is always there. Time can only strengthen love. You can only love someone else if they allow you to and it applies to yourself. To be loved, you must place trust in another person.” ― Lindsay Paige,

We look forward to seeing what you all create!

widojest 7: wedding 💐

Caleb rarely puts the tower up these days. There’s no need for such a big space when he’s by himself, or briefly sees his friends in passing. Sometimes, late at night, however, when he gets a little...sentimental, he’ll walk the rooms of the tower, just to smell the pies in the kitchen that will go uneaten, or think about the way Jester’s hand felt on top of his own. He’ll stare at the blank walls she never got to paint, and every time he tries to imagine what she would have painted, Caleb comes up empty so he leaves them as they are. The book, a fairytale of his childhood that he’s heard so many times before, but only read to someone else once, is left to rest on the table in his room, untouched for months now. It’s not until Jester’s voice rings in his head ‘Cay-leb! We’re almost there! Can you come pick us up at the docks?” that he snaps himself out of it, allowing himself one more moment in this space where time seems to stand still, before he leaves it all behind, much like the feelings he’s been trying to desperately to stop having. As long as he can keep them inside here though, Caleb thinks, they’re safe, as long as he leaves them inside the tower, and locks them away on the eight floor, he won’t have to worry about being a burden anymore.

This prompt was made for a SpyxFamily crossover, so who was I to resist contributing my take.
