all stories are about love in all forms or what the lack of love causes people to do. i speak only the truth. i am correct.
Vladimir Nabokov, letter to his wife Véra, Letters to Véra (ed. Brian Boyd & trans. Olga Voronin)
[Text ID: “I love you. Without end.”]
New idea: instead of writing the fic, you come over to my house and I tell you the entire plot while I pace my tiny kitchen. There’s a cup of tea, warm in your hands. The words don’t stop and the affection never leaves your expression.

celtic mythology: selkie
"Peppered throughout Celtic folklore are stories about seal people, also called selkies who are said to be cursed with a constant longing for what they do not have: when they are swimming in the water as seals, they yearn to be on land, and when they walk on two legs as a human, they long to be in the sea. They can transform from one creature to another by shedding their sealskin, and alternatively, putting it on again."
