Notes from the Mind Palace
I’m not the kind of person you understand in one sitting. Most people meet me and think they’ve got me entirely figured out within the first five minutes. They see someone loud, expressive, fast-moving, a little chaotic, and a little sharp around the edges. They look at the alternative clothes, hear the heavy music, and assume that the outer shell is the whole story. They don’t realize that’s just the surface tension. It’s the glare on top of dark water. The real story runs underneath, miles below the noise, quieter, stranger, and far more deliberate than anyone outside ever gives me credit for. If you only look at the velocity on the outside, you miss the gravity on the inside.

Memory of Limerence
I used to think memory was a kind of proof, something solid enough to hold up like a photograph and say, This is what happened. But memory is less like a photograph and more like a rumor you tell yourself until you believe it. Nothing taught me that faster than the night he and I both swear we remember, even though our versions don’t overlap in any meaningful way.
