“If more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world.”
I’ve lived a long life. And I’ve seen a few things. I walked away from the last great Time War. I marked the passing of the Time Lords. I saw the birth of the universe and watched as time ran out, moment by moment, until nothing remained. No time, no space. Just me! I walked in universes where the laws of physics were devised by the mind of a madman! And I watched universes freeze and creation burn! I have seen things you wouldn’t believe! I have lost things you will never understand! And I know things, secrets that must never be told, knowledge that must never be spoken!
I was at a busy cafe for lunch today and the small table next to me sat girl and a guy in, what I guessed, was their early twenties. The girl was reading a magazine with a coffee in hand and the guy was going through some class notes with a highlighter in hand.
It struck me beautiful that these two people were going about their reading with such intensity at such close proximity. The table was covered in paper to the point of overhang and it was like, to them, that everything outside of it didn’t exist.
I spent most of my lunch trying to figure out if they were a couple or not. They didn’t talk or look at each other but I felt something powerful in how comfortable their closeness seemed.
At one point the girl changed position and accidentally knocked the guys leg. He smiled, still looking at his papers, and gently kicked her back. A small game of footsie began and I saw two people who quietly, but deeply, loved each others presence.
I want something like that one day. I hope everyone finds it one day.
![“The deluminator. It doesn’t just turn off lights. I don’t know how it works but Christmas morning, I was sleeping in this little pub, keeping away from some Snatchers, and I heard it. A voice. Your voice, Hermione. You said my name. Just my name. Like a whisper. So I took it, clicked it and this tiny ball of light appeared. And I knew. It flew towards me, the ball of light, right through my chest and straight through me. Right here: [he touches his heart] and I knew it was going to take me where I needed to go.”](http://24.media.tumblr.com/2a2726d4cf5efbf6ba5f0c8ce6e81b10/tumblr_mhio40AqlT1s4srqeo1_500.jpg)

The other day I had a dream that I had a dragon egg and it hatched whilst I was at the cinema. It then proceeded to fly around the room and I had to try and catch it. I also had a dream Aragorn and I were an epic team defeating orcs around my high school. My fandoms are starting to infiltrate my dreams.
