And finished this. On the same day (more or less) as I started it. Number three soon

Two very pretty china bowls with a cream glaze with gold and black decorative glazing—the decorative motifs are abstract roses

In this house we adore Kalr Five—because actually getting that much joy out of your tea bowls when everything around you is [gestures to the collapse of civilization] is eminently timely and relatable
On that note, I like these bowls—note the roses

Who only ever loved once?
Who ever said “I will never love again” and kept their word?
Not I. #AncillarySword #AnnLeckie

You can admit the error and resolve never to repeat it, or you can refuse to admit error and throw every effort behind insisting you were right to do what you did, and would gladly do it again. #AncillarySword #AnnLeckie

Can you even imagine what it’s like to know that nothing you can do will make any difference? That nothing you can do will protect the people you love? That anything you could possibly ever do is less than worthless? /
And yet you do it anyway. #AncillarySword #AnnLeckie

Memory is an event horizon,
What’s caught in it is gone but it’s always there. #AncillarySword #AnnLeckie

And the longer you don’t see it, the harder it becomes to see it, because then you have to admit that you ignored it all that time. #AncillarySword #AnnLeckie

Life is unpredictable, and we are not always the people we think we are. If we’re unlucky, that’s when we discover it. When something like that happens, you have two choices.

Here is the soldier
So greedy, so hungry for songs.
So many she’s swallowed, they leak out,
They spill out of the corners of her mouth
And fly away, desperate for freedom.
