“He Holds Me As Though I’m The Only Solid Thing In The World.” —Jude About Cardan, The Queen

“He holds me as though I’m the only solid thing in the world.” —Jude about Cardan, The Queen of Nothing

“The odd curve of her ear was what he had noticed first. A roundness echoed in her cheeks and her mouth. Then it was the way her body looked solid, as though meant to take up space and weight in the world. When she moved, she left behind footprints in the forest floor. Because she didn’t know how to glide silently, to disturb no leaf or branch. He felt smug to see how bad she was at even such an easy thing. It was only later that it disturbed him to think back on the shape of her boot in the soil, as though she was the only real thing in a land of ghosts.” —Cardan about Jude, How the King of Elfhame Learned to Hate Stories

aka a love story summed up in two quotes <3

idk I think mocking the whole ”I was a gifted child” thing is funny but I do also think that it’s an understandable phenomenon because there are many people working in soul-crushing corporate jobs who miss being in elementary school and learning for the first time that you’re good at something & being told that your thoughts matter and have value. and then growing up and realizing none of it matters under capitalism unless it’s profitable. idk. I miss my stories being picked out to be read in finnish class

i’ve barely ever drank almond milk but the term soothes me a lot. i think i like the way the words feel better than i like the actual drink. also i know moon milk does not exist, but it sounds equally good. also blender bottle. glacier. groundswell. ashplant. cylinder. and the phrase swisher sweet is pure poetry. i’m not synesthetic and sort of disappointed at this, but there are many words i’d like to eat or else hold in my mouth like marbles.
