The pen indeed is mightier than any sword

Greetings, fair one. Here in Verona Beach, Crowley and I lounge in the heat of midsummer, with nightly dreams of your arrival. Although we don't know the exact times yet, my blood feels the stars themselves sing of your imminent arrival. Crowley says you'll be flying to arrive here, and I'm not one to disdain the occasional broomstick, but I don't think even the highest-calibur witches ever truly mastered long-distance air travel. Teleportation is far more practical an investment, I'm sure you'd agree. Perhaps you can explain when I see you.

Time is fickle. Cruel, even. When I am deep into my studies of the arts, it flows as if it flees from me, the hours falling away like sand through my fingers. And yet it barely moves at all as I await your arrival, every heartbeat counting the long, lingering seconds, putting me in stasis no matter how I writhe.

Our time apart has already been far too long. How am I to wait any longer?

I suppose the common tactic to make time cooperate is to distract oneself, to untether the mind and let it flow freely through ideas and idle chatter. Thus did "media" and "videos" become popular. So, here's one that Crowley pointed me to recently. He enjoys bobbing his head to the beat. Any beat, really.

Cutting Edge Technologies

Many young people here seem entranced by the love magic rituals put on by musical performers, particularly those in the "k-pop" arts. When grace, rhythm, and masculinity come together, it can be irresistably powerful, especially if you haven't protected your psyche from their attack.

The sword depicted in this video seems to have a darker aura than I would have expected, given his energetic weapon-form. Perhaps he has secrets, but they are not mine to pry loose.

I don't know if I've said this explicitly, but I don't mind if you wield other weapons, whether it's this "lasersaber" or others. I know what we have is special because... how could it not be? The bond between us could not be replicated by any other two people. I know this to be true in my bones, with the same certainty that I know I must drink when I am thirsty.

I am yours and you are mine, but our love is not to be locked away and guarded; it is to be celebrated and shared, if we so choose.

Kitfox Allies With the Green Man?

As you likely know, the Green Man is one incarnation of life and death... but in these modern times, I suppose even one as powerful as Him turns to capitalism's power, as He has opened a store! To sell "video games"!?

Apparently you can buy various Kitfox products on discount presently, which gives the Green Man some kind of tithe in the process. I cautioned Kitfox to be wary when making dealings with powerful entities, but they ensured me the contract was fair and legal, even regarding their Lucifer-related products. I hope they are choosing wisely.

In any event, my heart aches with every word, and Alice requires my assistance with preparing a poultice. So I bid farewell, and hope to see you in my dreams tonight.

Dulce periculum,

Rowan Blair
