Beating Heart #5



"People only help you if they somehow can use you." He stared at the girl with the caramel hair. "I wonder what her end game is..."

"You really don't trust people, now do you?" Roxanne seemed to answer his thoughts.
"How did she-?!"
"I'm not a mind reader," she said slightly amused by his busted-face. "I just see it in your eyes and I noticed the-" she pointed at his arms. Ashamed, he pulled down his sleeves to hide his wrists. He felt a bandage. She nursed the new-?!
"I saw the blood. I hope you don't mind," she hesitated.
He shook his head: "No."

"Why is she so nice to me?" Storm couldn't seem to figure her out.

Beating Heart #7

"That was Benedict." The girl's hair jumped up with excitement. "He's the best detective in the whole wide world! One day, I'll be as good as he," she dreamed out loud. "I still need to learn a lot, though." "A detective? Why was I at a detective's place back then?" It didn't matter how hard he tried, all Storm remembered was that faceless shadow and that photograph... "Why do I feel I've forgotten something important?" He wanted to ask Roxanne about it, but she didn't act like they'd already met: why would she call him 'Storm', if she knew his real name?

Me: "Frank is bloody and he has a name. And Charles-" Publisher: -face palm- "Let me rephrase it: no one of your MAIN characters has a name." Me: "So?"

Counting the Stars

Source A dream so vivid when I woke up seems now so far away. How does a memory fade so easily? A voice, a touch, a smile… It all gets blurry so fast. You can try grabbing the moment, holding it closely in your arms and cherish it, but it will slip through your fingers, stretch its wings and fly away when you don’t pay attention for a second. That’s what moments do. They don’t last an eternity. They’re meant to leave. Instead of convulsively clinging on faded memories you should better focus on the present and cease the day. If you’re lucky your brain won’t delete the whole memory afterwards and if you’re not so lucky… Well, at least you’ve been happy for a while.
