This was intended for valentines but it took me a fair bit longer than expected!! However, my partner told me that the Roman celebration of Lupercalia happens on the 15th!!! (A very early kind of pagan valentines, altho quite a bit bloodier and frantic) So that was the perfect excuse ...

I wanted to do a lil teeny painting with Jones and Xue, another character from the 1930’s story!! They’re friends but never hook up in said story, I just had a craving to draw them together, I can dream 💞

A quick little Horatius, longing for Rictus, knowing he won’t ever have him. Also oranges 🍊

"Apologize to one another, now," the man said, and, staring from one to the other, it was Rictus who finally bowed his head and shoved his lower lip forward.
"'m sorry, Hor."
Horatius, sniffling, wiped his eyes and nodded.
"Sorry," the dark-haired ...

Do you remember our first time? Trying out something foreign and scary, something which shouldn’t be spoken of, lest your father find out. In this way, even you don’t talk about it afterwards, as if it never happened. Not with me, in any case.

It's always a tug-of-war with Jones, never a straight conversation. Pure mischief, mischief and degeneracy, and booze and cigarettes, that's what the blond is made of. Unlike me, Rick thinks. So unlike me.

They loved each other. Or at least, that’s what they told themselves in lieu of being clueless as to what love felt like. Even if what they had was so far from it, something entirely different perhaps. Maybe that was the only way they could possibly love at all.

He wore it more often than not these days. Lewis usually asked to see it when he came by the MacAllistair estate anyway, (checking if he’d been good?) so why take it off at all?

He digs the nail of his thumb into the thick skin and starts peeling it. Horatius finds himself glued to his seat, his mouth dry. Water, wine, anything, he thinks. But there is no respite, no vessel big enough to contain that which he needs to quench his thirst.
