Grief is the ghost of love...

"Most times, a ghost is a wish."

""I loved you completely, and you loved me the same," she said, "that's all." And this was the point I wanted the most to make. That at the end of our life, if we can say this about each other, the rest doesn't matter. It’s the love that stays."

“I'm in the hallway again, I'm in the hallway. The radio's playing my favorite song. Leave the lights on. Keep talking. I'll keep walking toward the sound of your voice."

"you can’t take loved away. time and death and mistakes take people from you, but nothing and no one can take back that love... everything changes irreversibly with every second that passes, but nothing and no one can change the fact that i was loved and i loved back... you can’t take it away from me. i was loved. i was loved."

"At the root of every ghost, a yearning. A tug, in which a living person reaches so fervently toward something absent, that the absence becomes bodied. As anyone who has known loss understands full well, lack is not in fact, an absence at all. It is a presence. A person we love dies, or leaves, or changes, and a gap forms. It takes on their shape. Mimics their movement. Echoes their voice like a mockingbird. We feel this gap take up space, filling every place our lost one once was, and now isn’t. It reflects in mirrors. Flickers in candle flames. A phantom."

I love how you display creepy stuff. With uncanny expressions, body horror, and even setting. The ship the survivors on must be so chilly and old, you could hear footsteps from one end of the ship and night terrors of your neighbor. Properly delightful.

thank u I try very hard! I think horror is one of those things that are insanely hard to nail so I'm super duper glad

#Me when people feel dread from anything I do or say: do you prommy 🥺#Horror is so special to me. If I can do it justice I'm happy #not an art #The ship is cold and damp and out in the middle of nowhere where it's safest... no lights but the stars and moon sometimes #Maybe they need to occasionally black out all electronics to escape detection. And it's just pitch black.#Everyone bunks up with their roomies to wait ut out but the rooms dont have bathrooms or kitchens.#You need to go out so you wake u9 your roomie and you go out into the absolute pitch hand in hand #Maybe a glow stick between you something that can't be seen by other vessels.#A third pair of footsteps joins you. You dont see anything and you cant turn on the lights so you just hold tighter and keep moving.#Is the ship lurching or are you experiencing some sort of vertigo? Is the groaning and creaking just the framework?#Are you SURE whose hand is in yours?#To quote the haunting of hill house: god; god; whose hand was I holding?

“Don't do it, Eleanor told the little girl; insist on your cup of stars; once they have trapped you into being like everyone else you will never see your cup of stars again; don't do it; and the little girl glanced at her, and smiled a little subtle, dimpling, wholly comprehending smile and shook her head stubbornly at the glass. Brave girl, Eleanor thought; wise, brave girl.”

- Shirley Jackson, The haunting of Hill House.
