“Did you think that rats do not have hearts? Wrong. All living things have a heart. And the heart of any living thing can be broken.” - Kate DiCamillo, The Tale of Despereaux
“There are those hearts, reader, that never mend again once they are broken. Or if they do mend, they heal themselves in a crooked and lopsided way, as if sewn together by a careless craftsman.”
terrifying monstrosity: who could possibly love me when I am a terrifying monstrosity me, stretched out on the table in front of them with a rose between my teeth: well
I kind of wonder how Carol and Therese get to the point where Carol is doing Therese’s makeup on the floor of the McKinley motel. I like to think that it’s because while they’re there Therese makes some not-so-subtle comment about how she’s never loved the color red more than when she sees it on Carol’s lips. Carol laughs off the comment and asks Therese if anyone’s ever properly shown her how to do her makeup. And Therese admits that no, no one really has. And then in That Voice™ Carol says “here, let me show you.” Therese tries to hide how excited she is at the suggestion but inside she can’t wait for the excuse to be so close to Carol, and it’s everything that she can do not to smile ear to ear as Carol gently holds her and brushes against her lips and her lashes and her cheeks as she does Therese’s makeup for her.

Where a bunch of lesbians show up and teach you basic home maintenance skills, show you how to build things, what to shop for at places like Home Depot, nail care, and setting higher standards for your dating partners.
