Getting there lol

“Strong, sweet, and true. Without speech, she spoke to him as no other could, straight to the heart, with her graceful, disfigured hands and her wide green eyes. Though he was often lost for words, she understood him as no other had ever done.”

there was no such enchantment laid. Is it so hard for you to comprehend, that such a man could love you, without the aid of the magical arts? Have you looked in your mirror?
Have you not seen your own strength of spirit, and your loyalty, and your sweetness? It took him but the space of a heartbeat to see these things.

I’m NOT okay Juliet!!! You better fix this!!

In that moment, he had not wanted to let me go. It's all right. It's all right, Jenny, he had said. But it was not all right. I lay in the darkness under the trees, and silently cursed the Fair Folk for the way they used and discarded us in their strange games, heedless of the damage they did.

Don’t do this to me. I’m distraught

Oof Simon <\3

"Do you hold a wild creature once it is healed, and ready to fly home?" asked Red.


Let her you love her! She’s thinks you are under a spell!! 3

I stared at him. Love?
Did you not know, until now, when you must say good-bye? Then he let me look into his mind. Pictures, no words… I too have said my farewells <\3

Omg Father Dominic ILY

“I’m her brother, you fool.”

Oh my gosh!! I’m sobbing.

“Like ghosts, like great, soaring spirits they moved across the sky, spread out in file behind their leader, long-necked, broad-winged, white as the crest of a wave, their wings beating in solemn rhythm. They circled the courtyard where we stood, and the eyes of the crowd followed their flight.
One, two, three, four, five. Finbar had always been the last to come.”

Ben!!! Are you getting Red as fast as humanly or magically possible?? ILY

And yet, I wanted him here now. I needed him here. In the darkness, if I sat very still, I could almost feel his presence by me, quite near, but not too near.
Didn't I promise to keep you safe, he would say softly. I have never broken a promise. Don't look so worried, Jenny.
And yet, he would be careful. Careful not to move too close. Careful not to fighten me. Waiting still. I am your shelter. Don't be afraid.
