Pattern Stories

When I saw him again after everything he put me through, I thought maybe we could talk - really talk - and finally let the truth breathe. Instead, I walked straight back into the same twisted dance we always did: his questions that weren't questions, his apologies that never existed, and the gaslighting that felt rehearsed. One moment he kissed me; the next, he made me feel delusional for wanting closure. And just when I thought we were alone, he made sure we weren't. He wanted witnesses. He wanted an audience for my hurt. He wanted me craving him again - and he knew it. This chapter is about seeing the patterns I once excused, the games I once thought were love, and the version of me he tried to convince the world I was. It's the moment I realized he didn't come for peace, or truth, or healing. He came to watch me break. But this time, I didn't.

In a world where desire is a labyrinth and truth wears a mask, Velvet Nocturne invites you past the velvet curtain-into a carnival of obsession, illusion, and erotic undoing. Lark is a legendary haunted body painter. She has a shadowy past. Then she receives a strange and cryptic invitation one day- "Paint your way out of the dream." And thus begins her descent into Nocturne-an underground surrealistic wonderland housing a secret psychological game, each gruesome level of which lays Lark bare, emotionally and sensually. There she meets Vale-the cold steel-eyed architect of the game. Cool and cruel with the charm of control, Vale has shaped her world to be unbreakable. She never invited Lark. And yet she cannot seem to delete her. The erotic trials dissolve the line between performance and truth as Lark and Vale become adrift in a push and-pull of dominance, vulnerability, and forbidden intimacy. Each challenge-the room of mirrors, roulette of secrets, marionette's dance-rips apart the thin veil of their identities and asks: Do they fall in love or is the game rewriting them?

It's all a cycle

Ooh she an artist It's bad but I'll get better

Hey guys! This is the tutorial making an interesting pattern called Wave or Moire. And of course, I got help from Adobe Illustrator.

A black fox watches from the shadows. A song plays, uninvited, with lyrics that know too much. For Ellie, a coastal escape was supposed to be a break from her past-not a descent into its whispers. As the sea reveals patterns it shouldn't, Seabird starts answering questions she never asked, Ellie finds herself chasing echoes her father left behind. From the cliffs of Whitby to the secrets of Smuggler's Bay, something is waiting. Something that sees her. And it's been waiting a long time.
