       Baking is simultaneously relaxing, nostalgic, painful and bittersweet. It brings back memories of a simpler time, a time when you didn’t have to really be thinking too much and you knew what was miracles and never really gave a second thought to daymares. You used to bake pies: green slippery, soporific pies that about ate out your thought matter and chased away daymares for as long as you were indulging. If you just hadn’t run out, you think you’d be fine with the way that went on. Your thinkpan slowly rotting away never bothered you much before you had to actually get on with dealing with it and then you weren’t really all up and being cognizant of whether you wanted the sopor back and the hole bigger, big enough to drown in, or if you wanted to attempt to plug that wretched black abyss back the fuck up. Karkat made the decision for you and you’re not sure if you think it’s the right one.
