[OOM: You got your head all tangled up but if I could only make you care--
Small warnings for language, and brief references to homosexuality and violence. It's like the end of the movie but minus the music and with some extremely fuzzy cosmology but such is life, even afterlife]Hansel doesn't know whether he's supposed to be an angel or some kind ( Read more... )

Not a very good one, but not exactly a bad one either--it's a feeling of restlessness, maybe; she's waiting for something that she doesn't know what it is and so isn't sure how or even whether she'll know when it arrives. If it arrives ( Read more... )

[Some time ago, before a long stretch of mun-absence, this happened.
