Lara Pulver (Irene Adler in Sherlock), Michelle Dockery (Lady Mary from Downton Abbey), musical theatre, cute animals, Shetland, Gillian Anderson etc. Obsessed with THE EXPANSE lately! "Sky sparkling with diamonds" is a line from "Uncle Vanya" - a play by Chekhov, in which both Lara and Michelle (and many of my other favourite actors) had played. Weirdly fitting for The Expanse obsession. My Irish Dance side blog is www.sky-dance.tumblr.com.

Clarice left an indelible mark on me. I wanted to escape so many times from her presence, embarrassed by my infidelities. But when we were on the council I could never, since she held my hand firmly. I had lain for an hour with my lover Lucrezia Donati, and Clarice knew it. But she looked at me with her sweet face full of impenetrable sweetness and broke all my defenses. It made me feel guilty, a real brute, an unworthy man despite my name. “Where has my love gone? “- she whispered to me in her throne.   ”I’m not worthy of you or Florence, Clarice" -I used to answer her- “I have nothing to offer you, to any” and she told me “You have a whole world to protect,  a world full of artists, of which the humanity can hardly believe that there can even exist, Lorenzo, not a single woman, nor to one city, protect this world with me. ” But little by little her company was for me the sweetest honey, and her words captivated me to the point that I could not be separated from her bed, neither by night nor by day. She made me the man who i finally was, and anything in this world can be compared with her, not for me”
