《Ink & Tears》Aromatic Memories
Advertisement
Damn that burnt stick
Crisp and crumbling
Brittle to the touch
Aromas freeing memories
Smoky and pungent
A cacophony of images cascading
Damming my mental stream
Unable to decipher or sort
I have hit a bottleneck
I have become catatonic
Frozen in the present
From fearing the past
That damn burnt stick
Must I always fear you
Am I to always be in withdrawal
When will the devil free me from his shawl
So the past can be in the shadows
And my future in the light.

Let's Invade A Fantasy World!

But of course, the pesky humans wouldn't have any of it, and crushed him before he can even land his ship. Now almost all of his survival supplies are gone, and he doesn't know where he is.

8 90✓THE WAR DIVIDING US|| TodoBakuDeku Au
{TodoBakuDeku World War II Au} Home. After these past few years Izuku wasn't entirely sure what that word meant . . . what it truly felt to have a home. You can have four walls, and a roof over your head- but what was the real definition of 'Home'? The answer to this seemingly easy question is nothing, there is no real answer- because there are no real homes. At least not for a Japanese-American caught in the backlash of World War II.Being in an Internment Camp wasn't so bad at first. But as the hours dragged on, so did the minutes, which turned into days, weeks, and inevitably years. The Military guards watching them, with fierce and intense eyes- waiting for someone to slip up, make a wrong move. New soldiers come in every month like clockwork- replacing a few of the old ones. This wasn't new.But when Izuku met them . . . those two boys would change his life forever.

For as long as Remus could remember, his side of the Imagination was different than Roman's. Remus found his side harder to control, more unstable. Every morning he would wake up with no recollection of the dream he had dreamt, but his subconscious had taken control of the Imagination in his sleep and had placed him inside of it. One day, he wakes up in the arms of Janus.---6/12/21 - #1 in Roceit9/14/21 - #6 in Intrulogical2/3/22 - #1 in Demus
