Summary
Ever look in the mirror, wishing you were someone else?
Sure you have, probably.
Born in a different body?
Perhaps.
Now, has someone inspired a visceral sort of envy in you? A brand of covetous admiration you can't quite put your finger on? An inspirational need that simultaneously makes you uncomfortable and shines a light on just how unwell you fit in your own too taut skin... -

Summary
I watched, observant from afar, outside but within me
Waged a war upon my conscience, anger in that particular, heated colour
Fracturing pieces, stowing away, amassing truths
Regaling my own self with tales whilst lying outwards
Cracking my teeth on bitten brass bullets,
That sharp, metallic tang, pushing me, into me
Gazing still upon my friend without ever living inside the distance,
The millimetres between a warm finger-splay... -

Summary
Poem partially inspired by my original characters. Archaic language is used (ie.: thy, thee, thou, etc.), so if that's not your thing, take a pass on this. I don't like giving too much info on my poems, as I prefer to leave it up to reader interpretation.

A Love Like Blood by DesMotsComme_Violence (P0ETICA), poetica (P0ETICA)

Summary
This started out as an amorphous idea that slowly took shape... then went off the rails.
A post-canon, character-driven McReid series/original AU showing their "adventures" through the years, mainly meant to explore their relationship in a way that is authentic to who they are (while I also attempt to breathe more life into Geoffrey).

Summary
“So what you’re saying to me right now,” Ed took a sip of his chamomile, perfectly hot and sweet and bitter with rum, “is that you’ve never done drugs.”
Stede sat up straighter and made a solemn schoolboy face over the lip of his teacup. “That is correct. I have never done a drug.”
“Okay, don’t,” Ed waved his hand. “Don’t make it singular.”

“Bad at… what?” he mumbles, eyes now fully open and alert. “I don’t follow.”

Summary
Ed hasn't been doing well.
“Is it time, then? I’ve atoned for my sins, and now you’ve come to haul me off to the afterlife?” Ed whispers, not looking up. He feels a hand press softly onto his left knee, and the ghost says, “I rather think I have to atone for my own sins, my dear.” Ed whimpers, drawing further into himself, and whispers, “You’re not real. You’re dead. This isn’t real.”
