WILFRED. D': Gauche though it is, I remember encountering this for the first time during A-levels. He's magnificent. [I still feel guilty for writing fic about him].

I mean. knife-skewed/decreptitude, for fuck's sake. WILF. :(

WHY CAN'T I RHYME LIKE HIM. AUGH. HE IS MAGIC.

Del Del Del I finally finished the FUCKING HEATHER SCENE. Only four more scenes to go. I would chew my hand off if it would get this finished faster.

I can't believe I suggested Arthur/Billy Prior before I even knew that Tom Hardy was the guy in your Billy icon.

Because he ... I don't know. Because for Wilf poetry was like THE ONLY THING THAT MATTERED. He didn't have everything else to concentrate on (I mean, let's face it, you pretty much are the Renaissance with boobs).

WOOOHOOOOO! Self-imposed fic-reading exhile ends soon? ALSO THE FIC. EEE.

...that is perhaps my favourite thing anyone has EVER SAID ABOUT ME.

The next scene is one I have been looking forward to writing, but it's proving incredibly tricky to join the disparate bits together. Although:

He was hoping that this would be uncomplicated, symbolic; this deep in anyone's dreams, everything can be a symbol one way or another. But when she lowers herself back onto the flats of her feet and the kiss breaks, they gaze at each other for a period of time that Arthur recognises as dangerous.

Ariadne's throat moves as she swallows.

"It's fucking alarming the way you look at people sometimes," she says. "Like you're taking them apart."

Have a look at my 'poetry by others' tag, I think there are a couple there? The Margaret Atwood one is not too long.
