The ability to make you say "Wow" is a thing worth coveting.

I am utterly, utterly fascinated by their faces. Also, the clothes and jewelry. Wow.

This reminds me of this singularly lovely blog:

Woolf and Wilde: Imagined history that involves "vintage photographs of men together (and sometimes women together) circa 1880 to 1950...[pairing] the photos with text to narrate what...the couples might be saying, doing, feeling."

I am such a bad person. I see this picture and I think: 1920's fucked up incestuous aristocrat twins. I am SUCH A BAD PERSON.

No, really, I want to write like NOVELS about them. And how they love each other endlessly and chip away at each other inch by inch while still being only calm in each others presence. Because to each, the only person in the world who wants the real them, the pith underneath the layers of glamor and conceit and cutting acerbity and lies is each other. Which makes it impossible not to also hate a little bit. How can you survive being around someone who wants all of you?
