“The thing about grief is that you can't quiet it. It lives in the corners of your mind, looming, jumps out when you least expect it to remind you of your loss.“

😭

“We hold each other close, breathing in tandem, hands curled together as the versions of us made of flesh tangle, and this Julian of my dreams does not once demand his sacrifice.”

“I'm starting to understand why characters in postapocalyptic TV shows are constantly sleeping together in dire situations; knowing the truth about Julian doesn't stop my urge to trace a finger down the tense muscle in his neck.”

AMEN

“I snatch my gaze back. I feel like a live wire, exposed and poised to spark. I don't think anyone has ever looked at me the way that he does, with such naked adulation that it makes me squirm. It's a reverence reserved for miracles and gods. I'm too small, too human, I think, to
be regarded with such worship.”

Really enjoying the writing in this one along with the sense of dread woven in lol

Delilah WUT ARE YOU DOING

I’m flying through this and the banger is just 🤌🏻

"i'm having vivid fantasies about what amounts to my boss because he's interested in grass. i should've gotten laid before we left."

this is taking me out in the best possible way.

“Because there was really no argument to be made, was there? She had abandoned Shane as thoroughly as the Dreaming God once had.”

I love when characters so so deeply understand abd see each other

“You’re my type”

SCREAMING lol

“It was SUCH a Temple of the White Rat solution: Take two problems and use them to fix each other. Marguerite would have been ugh awe if she wasn’t ready to scream.”

Oh yeah we’re so back. 🤭

“I curl in on myself, tucking my face into my hands, regret bitter in my mouth as I allow myself to cry.”

😭💔

Ahhhhhh getting nervous about how we’re gonna wrap everything up!

Also the dressing room? 🫦

“…and it's only later, when we step out, when Jacob wraps me in a towel, giving me another to wrap around my hair, that I realize it.
Perhaps we were too exhausted, wrung out from last night, but neither of us reached for pleasure in this moment.
There was only comfort. Ease.
And care.”

OOP

“THATS BECAUSE I COULDNT STAY AWAY”

Ahhhhhhhh! These two and this story have me by the throat (and Naima Kumar has become an auto buy author).

“She wonders at how change comes in like a thief in the night, dismantling our sense of self one bolt and screw at a time until all that's left of the person we think we are is a broken door hanging off a rusty hinge, waiting for us to walk through it.”

Mmhmm I’m absolutely totally fine. 😭

Someone better have a damn good apology coming!!!!

Lolololol really enjoying the hijinks of this one as well as the SPECIFICITY of the characters and their responses to one another (also to the spicy scenes)

LETS GO!

Love when we start with an *ahem* bang and also that shit was 🤌🏻

“He kissed her. Not just because he wanted to distract her— because he had a suspicion that she might need it in a second-but because he simply couldn't not.
Here was Ruth, and she was his, and therefore, he kissed her.”

“Ruth couldn't quite believe her own daring, but she wasn't complaining about it. Turned out, everything was easier when you opened your mouth and words came out, and you didn't cut them off halfway.”

“The sound of her name on his lips was easier to handle than the adoration in his eyes. Shed have to get used to the latter, she thought. But she was kind of looking forward to doing so.”

🥹😍🙂‍↕️🥵

“There was a moment of disturbing tension, when the cat’s cradle of unsaid words and pent-up frustrations between them seemed dangerously close to coming loose. Ruth had no idea what it would mean, if that did happen. She understood very little about the distance between her and Hannah.”

Is there anyone else out there doing it like Talia?!
