The Gold (Shipped) Standard saturation + 2 colors: A Chapel in the Hospital (Peccadillo Parlour)
Name: A Chapel in the Hospital
Story: Peccadillo Parlour
Colors: The Gold (Shipped) Standard (saturation), Electric Sky #15 (Mercury & Solace), Newsprint #15 (More than once I've wakened with tears down my cheeks. I have had to think whether I was crying or whether it was involuntary like drooling.)
Supplies and Styles: calendar page (National Healthcare Decisions Day), brush (16.4.24 inalienable); miniature collection, plein-air, saturation (the gold (shipped) standard), silhouette, triptych
Word Count: 668
Rating: mature
Warnings: Depression, alcohol abuse, sex talk, drug abuse, smoking, overdose, rehab, rich assholes, unresolved relationship, a parent with trouble remembering her kid's pronouns (but she means well).
Summary: A series of texts and searches on the phones of Henry Sharpe and Phyllida Francis.
Note: Fall Out Boy is sort of on the outskirts of my mind palace but that lyric truly slaps.
Mods, could I have a tag for the color "the gold (shipped) standard"?

Did you go to the club?
No, driving home.
You could've slept it off at my place.
Your calendar said Alfred's coming by at lunch. I didn't think he needed to find some hungover sod in his mum's bed.
Alf loves you, Henry.
...
..
He's a good kid.
They.
?
Alf's a they/them now, Henry, didn't you know?
Sorry. Alright. Good for him.
Them.
Next time, stay and see him, alright?
Them. Poop! It's new for me too.
Drive safe.

Phyl darling --
I am high. I just realized I never told you I didn't do it myself. I bet you think I did. I've let you worry for nothing and I'm sorry love.
I wasn't being very smart that night but I didn't mean to take that much, I promise. I'm not that bad. I'm alright. Don't worry.
I bet you worried and didn't say a thing. Fuck you're so sweet. Marry me Phyl. I want to eat you out so bad right now.
I'm mailing this right now, or I'll "forget" to when I'm sober. I love you. I love you.

I got your postcard Henry
You're awful
What postcard?
[image3.png]
Oh fuck
I've been so mad at you. You need to get high to tell me you didn't try to off yourself?
I love you, Henry. You need to tell me these things.
So should I be ordering wedding rings or
Henry
You know I'd want to pick my own ring
And I know you didn't mean it
It's alright
I'll be for you whatever you want me to be
Alright?
...
I want you to be happy.
I want you to be happy too.

I don't know if I can do this. I couldn't quit smoking.
And now I look like a wanker
This is a place for wankers, Phyl.
I don't know if I can do this either
And you often do look like a wanker, Henry. Walk it off. You always do.
I'm not letting you go so easy.
I know, love.
Maybe you should.
...
Tell me about New York.
- XIV -
Invite me.
What?
Invite me to your parents' house. We'll spend a week there. You know you need a buffer.
I do need a buffer, but you've got things to do.
Invite me.
Come with me, love.
I miss you.
Good boy.
I will.

Hey
I read Alf's book, like they asked.
Tell them...
good work. No notes.
I have some suggestions for publishers if they're still looking to diversify genres.
Tell them yourself.
It'd be weird texting your kid without involving you.
Are you two free on Saturday?

(btw, if the character texting this is actually British rather than just in London, they would not search for: where to buy rubbers central london because I'm betting they don't want stationery! (rubbers in Brit English = erasers in US English, not condoms.) If they are American, then lol. I hope they had fun with the accidental drunk stationery acquisitions. XD)
