“When the lambs is lost in the mountain, he said. They is cry. Sometime come the mother. Sometime the wolf.”

Blood Meridian (1985) — Cormac McCarthy

Literally me (pls someone save me from myself)

in the most literal sense, i need to be embraced by the judge’s immense and terrible flesh. i need to push my face between his man tits, feel his big ol arms & his dainty little hands wrap around me, and just be swallowed by the darkness of his black oilskin coat. or he could just be half-naked like usual, idgaf. him crushing my spine is a need methinks.

When discussing Micah's introduction, a lot of poeple talk a lot about him looking like a villian, and he does, but personally I am a lover of the fact you are immediately greeted with his ideals. He is not hiding it, he is not even trying to justify himself. You are just immediately greeted with the fact that he is not too fond of the others.

"Huddled around a fire waiting for daddy to put food on the table" is certianly a memorable line that sets the tone for who he is and how different he is from Arthur. There is a very distinct contast between the two that is just immediately handed to you, which I find to be fantastic writing.

Today's vibes are grooming, incest and abuse 🥰

i plan on rereading blood meridian cause i haven't stopped thinking about how both the judge and dutch tried getting the kid and john to view the world through their lens, and how both the kid and john denied them their vision. like there's something about monsters seeking companionship and thinking they've found it, they've found the perfect protégé, someone who has the capacity to view their vision of the world, etcetera etcetera. a companion of the dark gift. someone who shares the same dark pleasure.

the way dutch says, "you never had the stomach for this." / "you never could see what i see, john. you were too scared." something about how he says, "come closer i've got surprise for you." something about how he says, "you always were a bad liar, john."

and how the judge tells the kid, "come here if you're not afraid" and "you came forward to take part in a work. but you were a witness against yourself. you sat in judgement of your own deeds. you put your own allowances before the judgement of history and you broke with the body of which you were pledged a part and poisoned it in all its enterprises. hear me, man. i spoke in the desert for you and only you and you turned a deaf ear to me." something about how the kid says, "lies, lies by god lies." and the judge says, "think again."

the parallels.. o(<

rraaaaahhh!!

As long as it's for the right cause, there's nothing wrong with playing dirty

read an essay about the idiot and it’s making me have a lot of thoughts . one of the reasons he might’ve stayed with the judge could be because being wirh the judge guarantees him some semblance of safety sure the judge may be hurting him but if he isn’t with the judge hes going to die alone and in pain in the desert so he doesn’t really have a choice if he wants a chance to live

Chapter 14 - The Judges Dogma

...just gave me an idea for my ASU 👀 Ty :D

I vaguely remember having a dream about The Judge placing his belly on top of my bare back (I was butt naked and bent over a red, queen-sized bed in a red-walled room), then giving me aggressive backshots.
