Is Not Love by HarraArial, literature

Literature

Is Not Love

For what is love, if but conditional? Can it still be called love if someone says "I love you if. . . ." Is it still love? But I am most certain that I would still love you. Even if you shatter me once again, a thousand more times. I do believe I would still love you, even if love meant pain, even if love meant separation. I do believe I would love you even if love meant death. In fact, especially if it meant death. Is not love, but the dying of two hearts, which resurrect themselves into one? Is not love me turning to you, and proclaiming: "I might be broken, but so are you. And in our brokenness, we come together, and we are whole"? Is it

Dance of Death (Pt. IV)

"You know, Little Wizard," Tarael began to speak once more, having sat us both down on the sofa. It was strange, he guided my motions as if I were on puppet strings, but somehow, I did not believe he was controlling me. No. I wanted to go where he lead me, but was that out of fear, or out of genuine desire? Unfortunately, I had no way of knowing, nor did I necessarily want to. "You've done a wretched thing to me, do you know this? You've stirred up the old feelings I used to have as a living man. The warmth in the heart that one has when they see something beautiful, the tenderness that fills the eyes. Of course, I have neither a heart, nor w

Dance of Death (Pt. III)

Well, my skill in analysis wasn't without fail, at least. I now knew what Tarael was, which would make it easier to understand what he wanted. Liches sought power, and control, and it was no secret that they often wanted to use the control on everything around him. Part of me wondered if he had control over the inhabitants of the graveyard. He didn't strike me as a necromancer, but I couldn't take chances. "You are very bright, little Wizard. Not many would have guessed to ask for my phylactery, let alone know what one is." He ended his words with a slight drop in pitch, clearly... angry about that little fact. "I am indeed a Lich, and judgi

Dance of Death (Pt. II)

Please don't scream, what a simple request, and yet how hard I had to fight to heed it. My very bones shook with the need to scream, to let out my startle, my fear, my anguish. I didn't even know what stood behind me, but I knew that he was sentient, and aware of himself. After all, he knew how to speak, and knew enough that I would be scared. Don't scream. But what about the please? Did that make him a civilized man? "D-Drychteri?" I finally spluttered, eyes horrifically wide, entire body shaking. His hand did not move, and he himself was painfully still. How was he able to do that? To stay so still in such cold conditions? Then I realized

Dance of Death (Pt. I)

Darkness surrounded me, and the cold air ripped through my robes. Even squinting, I could not see further than a few feet away from where I stood. This sort of night was the worst, when the moon would not even light the way, and the stars themselves seemed adamant to not shine their beautiful, twinkling lights. It was at this time that the gruff voice of Brunius, one of my traveling companions, echoed in my head. "I dun' like it when yer goin' out on yer own, 'Arra. It's dangerous ah nigh', an' even worse in those graves! What if ya run into a ghast or somethin'?" "So be it then, Herr Brunius. I know how to deal with ghasts. Besides, I know

The Cracks Begin to Show: Making Flawed Characters

First of all, I freely admit that what I say isn't gospel. I am a total amateur at art and writing. I've learned everything that I know via the internet and a few books. It's just that I appreciate all of the tutorials here on dA that have helped me out, and I want to put a little bit of my own methods back in. I've run across an odd myth about fictional characters here on good ol' deviantART: If my character isn't a Mary Sue then I've definitely written a good character. Sadly, this is not so. A Mary Sue (see here for more) is just a specific kind of bad character. Not all bad characters are Mary Sues. It would be like saying that sinc

There may be better ways to write, and my advice may not fit your type of story. Please use common sense when applying the ideas expressed below. Thanks for reading! Do you remember the Big Bad Wolf? He destroyed the Three Little Pigs' houses and ate them (or only chased them, depending on the rendition). He ran to Little Red Riding Hood's home and devoured her grandmother.

Hey, SEX WARNING, Y'ALL~ 8D

0 min read

So, at the request of my dear friend(s) (name(s) ommitted to protect the identities of the accused), I have been "Asked" (Begged, ordered, et cetera) to finish writing and subsequently publish one of my lemons for the world (namely them) to see. SO! For those of you who don't know, a lemon is a fancy-schmancy term for a sex story. Or, yanno, a story that has sex in it. Also known as an "Erotica Novel", ... but that implies some amount of artistic merit. My writing isn't THAT good. The moral of the story being: "Dance of Death", or whatever weird title I decide to give this thing, DOES CONTAIN SEX. On top of that, it contains sex with an UND

1) Put your iTunes on shuffle. Give me the first 6 songs that pop up. --- ... I don't have an iTunes, if you can believe it. 2) If you could meet anyone on this earth, who would it be? --- Too many people to count! I guess right now, I'd love to meet Sarah Brightman. 3) Grab the book nearest to you, turn to page 23, give me line 17. --- Inspenct what you expect. Stuff doesn't just happen because you expect it to happen; you have to make sure it happens by inspecting the progress. 4) What do you think about most? ---  Waaay too many things-- right now? Sewing. 5) What does your latest text message from someone else say? --- Not al

I Got My First Today

0 min read

My first somewhat-extreme harrassment, that is. A bit of background. For those who don't know, I'm pretty heavy into Subculture. While Goth, and Lolita mostly hold my heart, I've also a soft spot for Steampunk, and a lot of other things that don't really fit into an established subculture. So, naturally, I sort of look as strange as I am, fluffy dresses, generally modest dress, skull and cross jewelry, and, of course, my chain. You see, my mother gave me a chandelier chain a few months ago. She was just going to throw it away, and figured I'd have SOME use for it. Of course I did, and I still cherish it deeply. One way I do this is I usuall
