I felt the need to share this-
More Nightwish of course. They are amazing for fractured fairy tales, aren't they?

Bring me home or leave me be
My love in the dark heart of the night
I have lost the path before me
The one behind will lead me

Take me
Cure me
Kill me
Bring me home

- My fall will be for you -
My fall will be for you
My love will be in you
If you be the one to cut me
I will bleed forever

I loved this, it feels like it suits Ashe so well. Darien's being a pain to write - I've only tried one chapter from his POV so far - since I haven't quite got my finger on him actually being in love with her. But Ashe's obsessiveness is...more fun. More dark. "Take me/Cure me/Kill me/Bring me home" makes me want to write the death scene, where Darien shows up to take Ashe back to Veirea and be his queen, and then Ashe drowns herself.

*swoons*

I've noticed that Darien looks fairly obsessed himself from Ashe's POV sigh. I blame her inobservingness. And my failness.

Also:
shut up ok Nightwish is DARK FANTASY STUFF YEAH BE QUIET

Sweet little words made for silence not talk
Young heart for love not heartache
Dark hair for catching the wind
Not to veil the sight of a cold world

WHY CAN'T I KILL SOMEONE ALREADY???
