Clara Bauer, 47, first met Peter Brook, one in all the most influential theatre administrators of the twentieth century, when she was 19. He was in the viewers when she watched his play, Happy End, in Paris. Then years later, circumstances helped her get a job with him, as his director of manufacturing, working on reveals similar to The Man Who, Le Costume, Tierno Bokar, and The Tragedy of…

DAVID ARMS HIMSELF
1 Samuel 17:40 And he took his staff in his hand and chose him five smooth stones out of the brook, and put them in a shepherd's bag which he had, even in a scrip; and his sling was in his hand: and he drew near to the Philistine.
FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT OF FAITH
1 Timothy 6:11 But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness.

🌨️🧡💔 Malus
🌨️ - If this oc had a day free from all their responsibilities, how would they spend it?
She'd be gaming, probably, ideally trying out some title she's never played. But if she had access to one, she'd also be happy to hang out with Nucifera at an arcade, trying to show her how to break them open alongside actually playing Pre-memory wipe, a lot of her passion with games came from her modifying ditched arcade cabinets.
🧡 - Physical touch: good or bad for this oc?
Malus is incredibly touch starved, but her instinct to distrust and be openly hostile to others is stronger. She'd die for a good hug or cuddle, but loaths to admit it, much less to anyone not privledged enough to earn her trust and access to her personal space.
💔 - Does forgiveness come easily or with difficulty to this oc? Can they forgive others? What about themselves?
I think her main emotional problems come from her cagey-ness and not even giving others the chance to have anything to forgive for. She emotionally detaches herself from almost everyone, so it's hard to give forgivness to someone you don't even give two shits about. There's no betrayal if there's no trust to begin with. But, on the other hand, I can also see Malus being almost TOO forgiving towards the few positive relationships she has, she just has a knack for picking decent enough people that it hasn't posed a problem. Yet.
Forgivness towards herself is a different story, but she tries to drown out any residual guilt with the same apathy she directs towards the outside world.

Kat's beloved WIPs | Exclusive chapter sneak peek!
HEARTS OF STONE, Chapter I: Pride of Man
Thaeda moved her head aside. She wasn't a thing to calm men's frayed nerves whenever it suited them. "I'm half him and half a Sisterwoman, so I'm wicked half as much again. You better guard your tongue, ser."
The skin around his mouth stretched taut. He pressed his fingers firmer against her soft jawline. "Ted, you're not truly angry with me?"
If you were someone else, someone whom I didn't know like the back of my hand, you would long have a knife at your throat. At least she gave him a look like the edge of an axe. She said, "Perhaps I should be! For once. Would serve you well. Why did you call on me, you idiot, to cause problems? Or worse yet: to taunt me? You know I don't give pity easily."
"I don't want pity."
"What then? I won't have a grain of the wrath you feel. I didn't give it to you, so it's not mine to take back."
Marwyn nipped at his lower lip. Under his heavy eyelids his eyes wandered. "You must think me an utter son of a bitch," he mumbled.
"For the moment. So be done with this farce and tell me at once what's the matter and I might make a different impression of you," Thaeda said. She removed his hand from her face, squeezed it. She went to pour the wine.
What good remained there but the wine.
She filled two glass goblets from a side-table and offered one to him; took a deep drink from hers. The wine was warm as piss and the sweetness of the grape so overwhelming it left her tongue dry. Immediately she amended this with another sip, then with the cup she at last pointed to the cloak laid upon the bed. Her patience only stretched so far. "So. Is that why you and Father threatened to bring the tower down with your bellowing, and why you're being such an inconsolable rabid cunt?"
More (hopefully) soon on AO3!

You Are The Key To Everything
March 26th, 2024
Whatever it is that causes you pain, blesses you. If all you can see is darkness, find the light. Seek for it. I’m sure there will be other people who will help you in finding it. People who want what is best for you when you’re going through difficult times in your life.
Failure is the key to having a meaningful and successful life. With failure you will develop qualities in you that are not present yet and you will gain these qualities. They will be more developed as time goes by. All successful people had failures and these failures didn’t hinder them from achieving their goals. They became their stepping stones to reach their dreams.
When you are anxious or worried, be patient. Learn to wait… For everything. Patience is a virtue and having patience leads to a happy and contented life.
You are the key to everything that will open a new perspective. One that you haven’t seen that will make your life worth living.
Always remember that in every step you take, God is walking beside you. When all else fails, God will never leave you. He will always have your back. Keep your faith in Him and always walk with faith in God. I’m ending this article with a quote I’ve read on Pinterest: “And once the storm is over, you won’t remember how you managed to survive. You won’t even be sure, whether the storm is really over. But one thing is certain. When you come out of the storm, you won’t be the same person who walked in. That’s what this storm is all about. ~ Haruki Murakami”.
