....oh wow. The imagery in this is quite incredible. I have a very vivid set of paintings in my mind now and they are awesome and more than a little creepy.

[wizzard890]

Yes.

I am secretly a very visual person, and if I had any artistic skill whatsoever I would probably never write again.

[pyrrhiccomedy]

Oh, my God, this is so fucking vivid! I am just...sitting here, mouth agape.

You are brilliant.

(And this is very creepy.)

[wizzard890]

I am so glad you think so. ♥

I always have to make an effort, to bring the creepy.

Oh my fucking god, Emily.

I love this, and I want to play in this world with you so very much.

This is not where ships come to die. It is where ships come to sleep.

I want to wake them up. The metal-armed children and the leper miners and all the horrors of the desert-dead, in armor that sussurates with dessicated flesh and drier sand, marching in defense of a Jerusalem that may not be capable of being saved...

Swooning. You are making me swoon.

...This probably says something Unfortunate about me.

So like either of us needs ANOTHER giant original project.

But, um.

If you want. I want.

JESUS FUCKING CHRIST.

This is terrifying and gorgeous and my god the things you do with words and the way the momentum in this gets mechanized and weighted down...

If I do not sleep tonight, this is YOUR FAULT. YOUR FAULT.
