《it's archaic》dear you

❝dear one, who
drinks in the night sky
like a venom from prison
and is lost and held back
by the shackles of it's own mind.❞
dear you,
it is the art that you make that tells me how sorrow is leaking through the pot-holes of your heart; it is always the art that gives you away. and i was thinking to myself, how does someone so wonderful not know about their own magic and enchantment?
that is when i had decided to write to you. all of you. to the way you smile, down to the way you breathe. this is a letter to you and your being.
you call yourself out for every little thing, like the crook of your lips, the size of your hips, the curve of your face, the spots on your hand, the lines on your forehead, the rough tips of your hair, the shape of your waist— most of these things feel like flaws to you, as if a ship-wrecked wanting to sail but let me be the one to tell you, if not for these things that you think are your misfits, what will make you so beautifully different and so marvellously you?
i have seen that you hurt yourself multiple times and then go tell your friends that they were looking so pretty that day. i have seen you breaking inside yet trying to console someone else. i have seen the tears make a pattern of heartbreak all over your face but you hide it so well behind a smile, a facade for the ones you love, so that they don't find you crying.
i see you brutally breaking your own bones and then weaving the seams of a little girl's dress; you think your voice is the darker rumbling of the rain but you still hold that softeness in the midst of all your hurt and pain.

your art is not just what you create, it is also embedded in all the little things you do- the music you listen to, the colours you choose to paint with, the pictures you save and the pictures you delete, the food you eat, the things you say, the friends you have and the friends that didn't stay— all of it has an essence of you. and your art is a glimpse of that essence.
dear you, i need you to know that you are worth a thousand stars that glimmer in the night sky & you are worth the millions of hardships you go through every day, & you are worth the moon’s attention, & you are worth every bit of the life you want to live so desperately.
you are worth it all.

Body Modifier: Energy Required
Aria ate a fish. [Energy: 2] Finished, he ate another fish. [Energy: 2] ... [Energy: 3] Without realizing it, he had finished 5 fishes. He felt a little bloat, he lay down with a full stomach, occasionally burped. Even though he didn't want to be a big lump of meatball, he still had to keep eating. At least until he found another way to accumulate energy. After all, if he didn't take advantage of his advantages, wasn't that stupid? His mind then drifted imagining which one he would use the energy for. Should he use it on his eyes, so it shot a beam of laser, like a certain bespectacled mutant? Should he use it on his bones, so it regenerated infinitely, like a certain character from an anime? Should he use it on his brain, so he became a genius, like a scientist with a bald head? Or should he use it on his vital organ, so that he became the manliest person in the world? While he was imagining things, suddenly his ears felt pinched. "Ouch!" "Didn't mom already say you can't play with fire, you brat?!" There he realized, knowing that no matter what he chose, he was still a child in front of his mother.
