For the greatest tragedy of all

The boy was persistent, but Hades didn’t mind it.
Young hearts were more likely to fight for their 
answers. If only he wanted to give them away…
❝ —— One day you will take a bite of the REAL
world &&. then you will now the answer without 
having to ask questions. For now your works
speak of only light;— without any darkness. ❞

image

                   “What if chose not to let
                    this ‘darkness’ bleed into
                    my words? One does not
                    have to speak or act a certain
                    way after  d i f f i c u l t i e s.”

❝ —— Why so eager to know what the future might hold? ❞
Blunt answer might be far from what the other would desire,
&&. yet it is what Hades chooses to offer in return.  ❝ I might
have my own tools; yet one needs to grow to see their beauty. ❞

image

          Disappointed by the lack of answer,
          he fought the urge to frown && decided
          to ask another question instead.

                   “And what is your
                    definition of grown?”

❝ Your young age transpires in your work;—
one needs a soul more bitter to hold more
depth in his work. If there ever comes a day
when you escape your optimism, I might be
able to provide inspiration of a… different nature. ❞

image

                   “And how are you
                    exactly going to
                    do that?”

          The artist asked carefully,
          curiosity apparent in his
          tone.

❝ A bit too bright for my taste;— after all,
I am a man of taste a bit more obscure.
What is your inspiration?

image

                   “Many things. Mostly
                    Forrest Gump &&
                    Vampire Weekend
                    on repeat though.
                    Don’t tell the curator.”

❝ —— I would ask if the paintings are yours,
but seeing the same pastel palette covering
parts of your face is more than enough.  ❞

                   “You have an eye for
                    colour then. I was
                    working on a companion
                    piece.”
