gods bow at her feet & the seas part at her will but she is no saint. she is beautiful & powerful but she is a monster.

𝐑𝐎𝐒𝐄𝐒. true romantic. loving the classics. pricked fingers. perfect makeup done to impress. bruises easily. beloved but unknown. soul as old as time. overused and under-appreciated.

𝐃𝐀𝐈𝐒𝐈𝐄𝐒. clean linens. youthful naivety. family. wide-open spaces. running barefoot. moving towards instead of away. trying to forget about death. sun blindness.

𝐒𝐔𝐍𝐅𝐋𝐎𝐖𝐄𝐑𝐒. standing tall. strong roots. a home to always return to. warm summer air. holding onto lost hope. belief in growth. painted overalls. split ends.

𝐁𝐋𝐔𝐄𝐁𝐄𝐋𝐋𝐒. the end of spring. determination for the truth. cold and cautious. moonlight on windowsills. the taste of ice. unnecessary shyness. quiet belief in the extraordinary. complicated morals.

𝐃𝐀𝐅𝐅𝐎𝐃𝐈𝐋𝐒. mom friend. sweets. the smell of baking. riverbanks. leaving behind a toxic situation. being happy with your reflection. believing in luck. moving in a pack.

𝐈𝐑𝐈𝐒𝐄𝐒. sour candies. unappreciated elegance. valor. crystals projecting rainbows on white walls. unintended organization. old royalty. refusal to bow. learning a new language for the fun of it.

𝐋𝐈𝐋𝐈𝐄𝐒. secret poison. perfect handwriting. crisp consonants. pressed and ironed sheets. open windows. infinite persistence. thick skin. colder hands.

𝐋𝐈𝐋𝐀𝐂𝐒. fleeting and fair. strong but delicate. radiating good vibes. the beauty of falling apart. the joy in being scattered. soft fabrics. whirlwind romance. keeping the door open.

her kisses brush away the traces of summer warmth and the memory of love. ( Gellert closes his eyes and accepts them, always accepts them, because this is what he wants. it takes seven years to shed your whole skin. in three more, she will be the only one he has been touched him. a strange thought. ) 
blind, eyes still lost in darkness, he reaches forth, fingers entangling in her hair, and the present and past intermingle and superimpose. the texture is not right ( too soft ) and neither is the thickness, but he doesn’t care.
( ‘I want you to love me’, he says, through lips that do not lie, or at least not about this. he does, he does, he does. he wants her to love him, him and him alone, with a desperate kind of greed, an endless sort of abandonment and selfishness and everything in-between. to love him as if nothing else mattered, nothing else existed beyond them and The Cause he carried forth into the world. ––––– but does he love her? his obsession. a good question. was there any such a love that smelled of powder and smoke and ashes? ashes, ashes, and we all… . .)

           “ promise me, ” he murmurs, the words brushed against her mouth, feverish and pressing. he brings her closer, as if he cannot bear them ever being apart ( his obsession with her was— ) “ promise me that you always will be by my side. ”

  𝐒𝐇𝐄'𝐒 𝐁𝐈𝐍𝐃𝐄𝐃 𝐁𝐘 𝐍𝐀𝐓𝐔𝐑𝐄 𝐓𝐎 𝐑𝐄𝐌𝐀𝐈𝐍  with him,  with any person who earned the loyalty of the elder wand ----- but isn’t he different ?  doesn’t he sit aside from the rest of them,  alone in his own special category ?   (  yes,  he desn’t fear her as the others have.  yes,  he saved her from the dirty grasp of gregorovitch.  yes,  he doesn’t mind this form,  this human form,  he knows she’s just as powerful.  yes,  he is kind and gentle and sweet.  yes,  yes ---  )   

 she’s binded by nature,  but doesn’t she truly love him ?   (  her understanding of love is limited,  but she supposes this is what it is.  yes,  this must be the love that the mortals were always blindly searching for.  )   yes,  clearly yes,  he gives more purpose than the rest have :  purpose and warmth and affection and safety.  should she dare say it :  he’s given her a home,  not with him,  but gellert himself.  he is her home.

   “ i promise,  gellert,  i swear it, ”     she hums,  fingers delicately tucking a darling blonde lock behind his ear,  thumb caressing his jaw,  lips still grazing his in the ghost of a kiss as she speaks.     “ i promise,  ‘til death do us part and even after then,  i’ll still love you ---- ”

    𝐏𝐋𝐀𝐂𝐈𝐃 𝐄𝐗𝐏𝐑𝐄𝐒𝐒𝐈𝐎𝐍 𝐑𝐄𝐆𝐀𝐑𝐃𝐒 𝐇𝐈𝐌 ;  so young,  so unaware of the extent of those oddities.  he’s wiser than most,  more mature.  mature.  she almost scoffs at the thought.  maturity only seemed to come with some horrible,  harsh reality one was forced to line up toe - to - toe with,  demanded to grapple with at too young of an age.  mature.  the description seems irrelevant in its definition when he sits besides her,  she who has seen nearly a thousand years of crazy things,  as he calls them.

    (  maybe she was one of them.  not an oddity,  but an abomination,  a bloody flesh wound on the world,  meant to stain it forever.  albus never views her as such,  but she can’t help but think ---------- . . .  she knows they whisper about her,  the students.  she’s a rarity to them,  a ghost,  someone -- something that breezes through the hallways so ethereal and regal and silvery that they wonder if she’s alive at all.  just inhuman enough to peak the interest ;  just ghostly enough,  sighted so sparsely,  footsteps unnaturally silent ------  )     “ does it phase you ?  when they say things ? ”

𝐕𝐔𝐋𝐍𝐄𝐑𝐀𝐁𝐈𝐋𝐈𝐓𝐘 --- 𝐈𝐒𝐍’𝐓 𝐓𝐇𝐀𝐓 𝐀𝐋𝐋 she’s ever wanted ?  to be vulnerable with someone,  and for them to allow the same ?  to be able to accept someone’s gentle touch and not flinch away when the gesture has been returned ?  and yet,  even the smallest admittance of vulnerability --- if that’s what this is,  or is it a command ?  she almost isn’t sure --- scares her.   

she looks up at him,  doe eyes bright with alarm that she blinks into submission.   (  it feels like she’s been slapped ----- has she not proven her loyalty ?  her devotion not to his cause,  but to him ?  )   a kiss is pressed to his cheek,  to his jaw,  his chin,  the lovely corner of his lips.     “ i do,  you know i love you. ”     to his lower lip,  to his jaw.     “ i do love you. ”
