Cirque Noir

I accept you, demon.
I will not cover your mouth.
If it be man I love, apple laden and foul
or if it be woman I love, sick unto her blood
and its sugary gasses and tumbling branches.
— Anne Sexton

does anyone have cigarettes to spare

So given that I'm from Ireland it's no secret that I am pasty as fuck so I figured while we're here in this glorious heat I'd take full advantage of it.

Nobody likes having legs that could in Lord of the Rings summon aid for Gondor.

What I neglected to take into consideration was a) I'm pasty as fuck b) just because there's cloud it doesn't mean the sun is any less intense and c) freckles really like the sun so... I am now a cross between sunburned and very freckly.

Fun times.

The level of excitement some of you show for a red light district I'd think you were all virgins and nuns.

The secondhand record stores here are quite amazing though. Anyone think they've found the best wine bar yet? It's the best place to look for dinner.

for those of you who didn't come out on friday
i brought some fun drugs, if anyone wants to partake

Been away for so long that I'd almost forgotten how the time leading up to a move affects me.

I'm lucky if I stay human and I don't shift into my hound form.

Guess only time will tell.

shop is going to be closed for a few days
if you were interested in a piercing, it's going to have to wait
i am having a creeping feeling that we're going to be moving soon
if you don't see me for a few days, i'm fine

Hello, it seems like I've chosen a bit of a solemn time to join you all here?

Even so, I'll introduce myself. My name is Tae Seong-mi, and I've come to you from Korea. I'll be working as a costumer, so I hope to meet nearly everyone! Finding the Cirque Noir here was very exciting, as I had heard rumors about it before but didn't know when it would come close enough for me to actually become a part of. I hope to be friends with everyone, and will be in your care from now.

Ummmm Also, if anyone is available to talk about specific dietary needs or what happens to corpses... please reach out to me.

Thank you very much!

why haven't we caused any trouble yet?

So... what did I miss? And more importantly, did anybody miss me?

It's been a while.

PICTURE: NIALL MURPHY
PIERCING: FRANKIE @ BLISSED
MODEL: BLISS @ BLISSED

Frankie was so gentle as she pierced my thighs and threaded this pretty ribbon. Niall was an absolute gentleman as he posed me and took this beautiful photo. I'll forever say you better come to me for tattoos, but if you're not going to Frankie for piercings and Niall for photoshoots - you're fucking mad.

Okay, who wants to unwrap me?
😘

Beauregard took a sneaky opportunity to eat an entire loaf of bread's worth of toast. Somehow I feel like Grayson is to blame for this.

someone let me stab them
i'm bored and hungry

do you have anything fresh

[ leon ]

what are you doing later

do any of you ever wonder why the letters in the english alphabet are in the order that they're in? i mean like, the letter 'j' was one of the last letters added and yet it's the 10th letter in the alphabet. why is that?

There was this movie called Fear that came out in
1996 - I was way too young when I
first got to watch it. But I
am watching it again now
and I forgot all about
the rollercoaster.

I feel claustrophobic.
Anyone want to go to
an onsen with me?
