prompt 21; childe

prompt 21: “I love you - I am at rest with you - I have come home” - Dorothy L. Sayers

anon ask

“and where is home for you now, tartaglia?”

her words are chilling; planting an icy flower that blooms in his chest and freezes the blood in his veins. he thinks of the letters he carries in his breast pocket, and of a silver ring that no longer decorates his finger. he thinks of promises broken, and of apologies shared; of soft sand and delicate seashells; of wretched hopes and traitorous dreams. 

he thinks of home, and he thinks of you.
