When did it suddenly become cool to hate everything? It's a growing problem, especially in the entertainment world, and no one benefits from an increasingly hard to please, pessimistic audience.
Artist's Comments
Day 7:
I hear white noise in the background and imagine the hills as you describe them. I see the empty plates, the screaming corporals, the blisters on your hands. I draw spiderwebs on my thighs with my fingernails and confess to counting down the days. I can taste emotions, and you know this. Yours, right now, are like sea water and baked dirt on my tongue. Or are those mine? I listen intently to the stories. A knee injury, a sleep-in until seven, all the little things that could go wrong exploding into a myraid of huge problems. You tell me about free-falling, obstacle courses, and I recollect pine trees and a view of the ocean. I laugh at the mashed-potato conspiracy, though I don't think that was entirely appropriate. I pick up something in your voice that I know you didn't want to show. I fumble for those millions of words that a simple hug would have conveyed in meaning. I had a terrible urge to apologise, though I don't know why. We repeated the phrase shit happens though we knew it wouldn't stop the shit from happening. A quarter of the way through now, my soldier. Hang in there. Good luck. Less-than-threes to keep in your coin-purse, because you have no spare pockets. -- This ID will be deleted at the beginning of next month, because I will be happy again then. PS: I'm not giving him his shirt back. |

And I put the link there because I know you haven't been keeping up with your f-list on LJ. :3 If you go to mine, I've been putting drabbles and writing up. Under the tag 'fwee' is writing along similar lines to this.
And comment on something, please. XD I'm lonely~

And a fractured smile to fix in my spare time.
I mean, it's obviously you, but for a moment, it was entirely unrecognisable.
It's... I don't know how intentional, or how flukey it was, and frankly, I don't care, but this is an amazing photo. Somehow, everything thing in it has just fallen together into a compositional mindblower. The colours of it are just.... oh, I can't quite say how the sigh escapes my lips. So discrete, so subtle, almost lost to the world of greys, but still there: green greys and blue greys and red greys. Gorgeous. Stunning.
I love the angles of it, I love the perspective, I love the position of each and evey thing within it. It is... striking. It is amazing, and the backstory behind it enriches it beyond words.
Please, I beg you, don't delete it. Even if you are happy again, even if you feel embarrassed over it. It is a beautiful photo, and a beautiful story. It makes my fingers itch, like I want to paint it, to recapture some of it in some way that makes it more relevant, more personal to me. I know I can't really do it, but it's really struck a chord. It is actually... a beautiful photo. I'mma gonna favourite it, and I'mma gonna hope that it won't disappear from the world, because damn, it's hard to make magic with photos, but somehow, likely carelessly, without painful focus, have hit the mark. It is actually, honestly, stunning.
