    Summary

    Red is blood. Red is flesh. But veins are blue, and so is the sea. Blue and red seem to oppose each other in kindness. To contradict each other while still holding hands. Fire and water. In an alchemical sense, blue is meant to represent the spiritual, the mystical, and the infinite. Rubedo- the Redness- is also the infinite; iosis; magnum opus. Success.

    That's what A.B.A is; success.

    A itemized collection of A.B.A's life experiences. There aren't many in the beginning, and those she can recall are tedious. Before she and her newlywed husband were assaulted by a dandy vampire, it'd mostly been a lot of surviving.

    Summary

    “Don’t tell me you mean to-!”

    “Don’t tell me you’re still clinging to your righteousness, you silly woman.” He frowns and swats her hands away. She collapses onto her haunches meekly like a scolded child, drawing back against the bookcase, exhaust returning tenfold. “There’s a reason you’re still haunting here. Anyone in her right mind would leave as soon as she had the chance- and a smart woman would not have come at all. You’re clouded with folly, and I cannot help you. Not in the way you need. Now leave me be, especially if you’re going to keep raising your damned voice. I’d have thought you more collected than this- a lady knight...”

    Summary

    Cahara’s never been particularly faithful, though he’d evidently grown up surrounded by countless icons and idols- an array of marble statues, bronzed and cold and all in varying stages of dress and monstrosity, staring down at his lonesome self with disapproval. Those gazes quickly grew inanimate and more distant still the longer he lived on the streets of Holy Jettaiah. He’s never been privy to smoking, either, but before he knows it, he’s already packed a small pad of tobacco into the bowl and lit a match against the grit of the stone wall.
    He takes a draw, stepping back through the doorway he’d entered through, intending to hang in the arch like a spectre in the early hours, staring at what scattered stars he can through the chalky sky, the heavy patter of fat raindrops spitting from above like little godless seeds to the earth- and like an old man he plans to ponder the great city of Rondon a jewel unearthed.
    And then he’s being clocked in the nose.

     

    Cahara meets Celeste, and resigns himself to become- if not a good man- a better one. It all goes downhill from there.

    Summary

    It's hard to let go of your first love, especially when you're stuck in a place like Talos, MN, and an honest man is hard to come by in the first place. But after twenty years of solitude and pining after their long-lost Catherine Earnshaw, Blódhundr wants to give love another try.

    Summary

    They're not quite themselves again, despite the best efforts of Lux and her team. Nobody really thinks that they ever will be. But sometimes, change isn't such a terrible thing; sometimes, you need to transform irrevocably before you can finally take your fate into your own hands.

    Summary

    “Ástin mín,” They correct him, their nose curling.

    “Ow-stin men,” He tries again, slower this time. Somehow he only makes it sound worse. They shake their head as he visually recites the words, mouthing around the consonants. They think he’s doing it to make them laugh, which they do, softly.

    “Here. Allow me.”
