The kitchen smells of instant noodles and fried potatoes.
On the windowsill — a tin can instead of an ashtray.
Night. Silence.
Someone is awake.

A new soup has appeared in the cafeteria. We don't know what it is. The cooks don't know either. If you try it and survive - report to the department.

What would the students from "Convergence" post?

What's worse: losing a fight, or seeing boredom in someone else's eyes?

The parade ground is empty.
Only the wind chases a dry leaf across the asphalt.
And a crack in the asphalt — small, unnoticeable.
For now.

Gym No. 2 — in the basement.
Instead of ventilation — two small windows and hope for a draft.
Light only above the ring.
Everything else drowns in gray half-darkness.

Loquieman's "Sunny Side" (Солнечная сторона) has been living in my head as very Svyatoslav-towards-Aglaya coded — the "tired of endless wars, want someone to come home to" kind of line. Ironic, since she's the one causing the wars.

sometimes I get the urge to write a character based on the girl from Ace of Base's "All That She Wants." or just... live like her, honestly. lol — is that still a thing people say, or am I just old now.

[C. Caretta @c_caretta]

morally grey characters resonate because they're the peak of feelings people keep hidden.

I stumbled upon a photo from last winter. A rainbow and snow...

drawing and writing pull from the same place for me. this one's unrelated to Convergence, just what came out today.

A well-built plot isn't about what happens. It's about how much silence you can hold before something finally does.
