if you lose it all, you will find it taller and that you’re surrounded by the wall
standing at the wall // the pretty reckless

[txt] it’d be rude of me not to, wouldn’t it? [txt] since you set it up for me so nicely ;) [txt] though now that i’m sensing your impending return, i might consider relocating [txt] for the record, you’re hardly my favourite anything
[txt] i should start charging you rent. [txt] christ, nothing gets past you. what gave you that idea? [txt] oh my, is that you flirting??
[txt] it’s your favourite blonde xoxo [txt] are you still living in my fucking house??

the fact that this bitch is still alive in my head.
fs.
wow, it’s been quite a while since I’ve even come near this website, at all.
i thought about maybe finally putting chey to rest because her muse has been so fickle for so long, but as soon as i logged back in i lost the heart to do it
she’s too important to me and i can’t lose that
might revamp, might just start writing to myself
we all know why i’m back here
we all know why chey has woken up
@imbalanceofpower it’s all for you xoxo

“An interesting assumption to make,” he said coolly. He grinned to deflect - not a particularly charming expression. “Think I could make a good politician?” A personal joke. Maybe was dangerous. Yes even more so. “Maybe, then. The accountant lifestyle pulling you in? Do you think you’d survive quitting?”
“ and i don’t think i’m wrong. ” there had to be more than just this, more than the value of their kills. everything was changing, but they were not far enough into the conversation for that yet. “ you’re certainly argumentative enough, ” she scoffed, knowing that this exactly how he would have taken this. “ i might. although you don’t seem to have a lot of faith in me. ”

Huh. “Not this job.” For many reasons. “Look at me. What would I even do?” If she could see him behind a desk, they were going to have issues. “No, I’m in this till I die. Why? Are you thinking about handing in your notice?”
she shouldn’t have been surprised, in fact she wasn’t really. but it was still odd to hear. “ i’m sure there is more to you than just this. ” she was thinking too much and had now said too much. good one, chey. but when he asked her back, she just shrugged, looking away from him. “ maybe. ”
“ d’you ever think you’ll quit? ” the question comes out of nowhere, spoken out into the silence that had fallen quite comfortably between them. “ like... for real. just pack up, stop working, stop killing. ”
@epiitaphs // for seb!
