Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before. - Edgar Allan Poe
“I love you not only for what you are, but for what I am when I am with you.”

Finally im seeing questions with the exact amount of niche absurdity that i want
Remember, remember
The fifth of November
The gunpowder treason and plot
I know of no reason
Why the gunpowder treason
Should ever be forgot.
But what of the man? I know his name was Guy Fawkes and I know in 1605, he attempted to blow up the Houses of Parliament. But who was he really? What was he like? We are told to remember the idea and not the man. Because a man can fail. He can be caught, killed and forgotten. But 400 years later an idea can still change the world. I have witnessed firsthand the power of ideas. I’ve seen people kill in the name of them and die defending them. But you cannot kiss an idea, cannot touch it or hold it. Ideas do not bleed. They do not feel pain. They do not love. And it is not an idea that I miss. It is a man. A man that made me remember the fifth of November. A man that I will never forget. - V for Vendetta.
my love language is just relentlessly annoying somebody and giving them lil' trinkets i think are pretty.
But then something happened. It happened to me just as it happened to you.
is goodness measured in intent or action? what happens if you do good but you don’t mean it?
Your smile lights up my world more than the stars light up the night sky.
you are beloved, the essence of stardust, no matter how muddy your shoes or heavy your heart
