#IWillRememberAddie ♡

She is all that's left, a solitary ghost hosting a vigil for forgotten things.

Oh, this moment is the loveliest nod to Howl! ♡♡♡

They are Orpheus, she is Eurydice, and every time they turn back, she is ruined.

She has seen buildings fall and rise, cities burn and be remade, the past and present blurred together into a fluid, ephemeral thing.

[He] has asked for the truth, her truth, and so she is telling it. In pieces, fragments tucked like bookmarks between the movement of their days.

When you live long enough, even madness ends.

Memories are stiff, but thoughts are freer things. They throw out roots, they spread and tangle, and come untethered from their source. They are clever, and stubborn, and perhaps -- perhaps -- they are in reach.

For someone with nothing *but* time, you are always in a hurry.

Perhaps I have been too merciful.
