Morbidly Yours

by Ivy Fairbanks

“The way you make the world more colorful. I don’t think I realized how much I needed it until we met. Not just your job, you. There’s so much sadness in this world and you seem to always be spreading joy through it.”

“Who are you, and what have you done with Callum Flannelly?” “Lark, I’m more myself with you than anywhere else.”

We show our partners the ugliest parts of ourselves, and we tell them the truth even when it hurts, because that’s what intimacy is.”
