To buy a potted plant is to admit both faithlessness and need. To water the plant, perhaps daily, perhaps once in a while when you remember and the leaves start to droop, is as close to love as it gets.
any/any(/any). A girl in a bikini is like having a loaded gun on your coffee table- There's nothing wrong with them, but it's hard to stop thinking about.
graceland. charlie/briggs. In a perfect world, you could fuck people without giving them a piece of your heart. And every glittering kiss and every touch of flesh is another shard of heart you’ll never see again.
loose lips sink ships l jenny/blair, jenny/blair/nate (mild blair/serena, blair/nate) l i tried to resist! but this called for a house of cards au, and i'm a sucker for blair in positions of power. ah, and also, i. kinda forgot to put porn in it. sorry.Jenny Humphrey is made up like a raccoon and whenever Blair holds a press conference she stands far to the right, where she can't see anything and can hear even less. Afterwards she writes blunt, nervy articles that no one reads in her column in the Huffington Post; Blair thanks the heavens they don't, because what Jenny writes is much too often true

Blair meets Jenny in a hotel three times a month. At first they sit in the lobby, drinking expensive liquor Jenny can't swallow: Blair smiles at her and gives her information and instructions on how to write it down; Jenny frowns and heckles but ultimately does what Blair wants her to. In august, when the lobby is overrun by tourists, they go up to the room. Blair fucks Jenny with her face against the glass, overlooking the city

As a rule, Blair doesn't regret things. She's made mistakes, though arguably less than almost everyone on the Hill, but she's not interested in dwelling on them, or talking about them. Which doesn't really explain why she doesn't distract Jenny with a shiny new scoop the minute she asks, "You knew my step-sister, right?"
Blair dislikes playing dumb, too, even though she's really good at it; sometimes it seems like the only thing her mother taught her. "Yes," she says.
The wind is brisk and cold and they're walking without looking at each other, the cold sun slanting over Jenny's cheek and making her look sickly, even younger than she is. "What happened?"
When Blair does look at her she's narrowing her eyes to see Blair, backlit by the winter light. She looks greedy, the perpetual greediness not only of the journalist but of the twenty-five year old girl. Careful, thinks Blair, who makes a point of heeding her own warnings, most of the time; that's dangerous"It doesn't look good for a politician to be seen with someone like Serena
