For mine, Peter is picking off where he left off on Wednesday (QueerBlogWed) in Unwilling to Be Yours. Dealing with an unseen hostile presence, which seems to emit from a painting on the Navel’s wall…
It was hard to say what its subject matter was. Sometimes, I could make out the faint form of a boy, or was it a man?
Whomever he was, he got lost in all the colors in the painting.
The most dominant hue was a cold, whitish silver. I reminded me of bone, a knife, or a spider web, intermingling, yet somehow separate. Somehow hinting at sinister secrets the artist chose to taunt and terrify the viewer with.
None of these objects remained still or static.
Christopher: (frowning) It doesn’t look like that.
Peter: (for once, not bothering to be charming) Not to you it doesn’t.

Oh, it is. You’ve met it another prelude, seen through very different eyes. 🙂

Intriguing painting. Seems to unnerve Peter a bit — I wonder why he sees what he sees in it and others don’t.

What an interesting piece of art. I love works where people see different things. Proves very reflective of individual personalities, I think.

Oh, that was foreboding; ;like something out of the corner of your eye that you can’t quite follow, and you’re afraid to look at it full on 🙂 Great imagery ❤
