Proust - Tumblr Posts
can you imagine Andrew coming back from reliving weeks of abuse with Proust and one of the first things he sees is Neil waiting for him with his eyes and part of his face bruised and with medical tape on his cheek and when they get to the car, Neil wincing when he has to bend to get inside and sit and then flinching when Nicky grabs his wrist and it’s a feeling he knows all too well and off of his meds, he starts to realize he doesn’t just care about Neil because it’s convenient, he cares because Neil is the only thing that makes him feel alive, and the fact that the only thing that makes him feel at all again cannot take a single step without clenching his teeth in pain, the fact that the only thing that makes his life worth something was nearly taken away from him because of him and, most importantly, for him makes Andrew realize that no matter how beaten up Neil comes back to him, Neil will always come back, and Andrew will always be waiting for him
Just sniffed grenadine and got a VICIOUS sense memory. During a heat wave I used to sneak it outta the cabinet and put it on rough crushed ice from the fridge for "snow cones." That was the summer I read Anne of Green Gables. I just got my first American Girl Doll. I OFFERED HER SOME TOO. I gotta sit down. I gotta sit down.
