The Sport of Namo

by WaywardDesertKnight

One way in, two ways out, that is the way of the Halls of Mandos. The easy way out, have a loved one speak with the master of the Halls. But for most the second way is the only way. For two who shaped the fate of Middle-earth, this is that way. One wants to see his family again, the other can never leave. They'll come out wiser and more understanding of one another, since one cannot kill the dead, right?

The Song of Achilles - Madeline Miller

A Hundred Golden Urns

by righted21

Thetis had granted my wish at last. After the hundredth sun and the hundredth moon, her voice no longer echoed hateful scorns. The salty reminiscence of the sea nymphs no longer felt hostile. Like a pooling blood in my chest, something warm engulfed my non-body.I did not know where I was going, yet somehow my tongue found the words to name it.Achilles and I were going home.

Tanabata

by PunishedPyotr

There is a doctrine about the nature and place of the mind which is prevalent among theorists, to which most philosophers, psychologists and religious teachers subscribe with minor reservations. Although they admit certain theoretical difficulties in it, they tend to assume that these can be overcome without serious modifications being made to the architecture of the theory. ... [the doctrine states that] every human being has both a body and a mind. ... The body and the mind are ordinarily harnessed together, but after the death of the body the mind may continue to exist and function. Such in outline is the official theory. I shall often speak of it, with deliberate abusiveness, as "the dogma of the Ghost in the Machine."Gilbert Ryle, The Concept of Mind (1949)

flashbacks (a memory of you)

by lady_blanche

The last words he said to her were ‘Move on, Maka. Don’t let me stop you.’ And then he’d smiled that stupidly sweet smile, the one that would look scary to any other, full of sharp teeth, but Maka knew it was filled with love. Maka had always known, it just took her time to realize it. But by then it was too late, wasn’t it?
