"That's because you're stubborn." modern verse!

Wait a minute–– I’m stubborn? Megan turns to look at him from over the hood of the car, body paused in mid-drop to settle into the driver’s seat. Both hands appear, resting against the heated metal that she’s sure matches the current temperature of her blood ( which Jack has perfected in making boil. ) We came out to scout the place, Jack. SCOUT, no more. She glares, eyes narrowing into dangerous slits. And to be clear–– you are the last person who should be tellin’ me a damn thing about bein’ stubborn. Get in the car.

  • “The world is indeed full of peril, and in it there are many dark places; but still there is much that is fair, and though in all lands love is now mingled with grief, it grows perhaps the greater.”
  • “Deserves it! I daresay he does. Many that live deserve death. And some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them? Then do not be too eager to deal out death in judgement. For even the very wise cannot see all ends.”
  • “I will not say: do not weep; for not all tears are an evil.”
  • “Do you wish me a good morning, or mean that it is a good morning whether I want it or not; or that you feel good this morning; or that it is a morning to be good on?”
  • “I am glad you are here with me. Here at the end of all things.”
  • “Courage is found in unlikely places.”

  • “If by my life or death I can protect you, I will. ”
  • “I feel thin, sort of stretched, like butter scraped over too much bread.”
  • “It is not despair, for despair is only for those who see the end beyond all doubt. We do not.”
  • “You have nice manners for a thief and a liar.“
  • “It is useless to meet revenge with revenge; it will heal nothing.”
  • “Yes, I am here. And you are lucky to be here too after all the absurd things you’ve done since you left home.”
  • “Pay heed to the tales of old wives. It may well be that they alone keep in memory what it was once needful for the wise to know.”
  • “It is perilous to study too deeply the arts of the Enemy, for good or for ill.”
  • “I wished to be loved by another, but I desire no man’s pity.”
  • “The whole thing is quite hopeless, so it’s no good worrying about tomorrow. It probably won’t come.”
  • “Sorry! I don’t want any adventures, thank you. Not Today. Good morning! But please come to tea -any time you like! Why not tomorrow? Good bye!”
  • “How do you move on? You move on when your heart finally understands that there is no turning back.”

  • “I have passed through fire and deep water, since we parted. I have forgotten much that I thought I knew, and learned again much that I had forgotten.”
  • “Why must you speak your thoughts? Silence, if fair words stick in your throat, would serve all our ends better.”
  • “If you sit on the doorstep long enough, I daresay you will think of something”
  • “There’s some good in this world, and it’s worth fighting for.”
  • “On their deathbed men will speak true, they say.”

A DARKER SHADE OF MAGIC / A GATHERING OF SHADOWS by v. e. schwab sentence meme.

  • ❛  I’d rather die on an adventure than live standing still.  ❜
  • ❛  After all, you can kill people, but you cannot kill magic. Not truly.  ❜
  • ❛  Impossible. What a useless word, in a world with magic.  ❜
  • ❛  Everyone thinks I have a death wish, you know? But I don’t want to die – dying is easy. No, I want to live, but getting close to death is the only way to feel alive. And once you do, it makes you realize that everything you were actually doing before wasn’t actually living. It was just making do. Call me crazy, but I think we do the best living when the stakes are high.  ❜
  • ❛  You have two faces. One you wear for the world at large, and the one you wear for those you love.  ❜
  • ❛  Everyone’s immortal until they’re not.  ❜
  • ❛  It is as it is. It cannot be undone. So please, be grateful, and be done with it.  ❜
  • ❛  The thing about freedom? It doesn’t come naturally. Almost no one has it handed to them. I’m free because I fought for it.  ❜
  • ❛  I know you can do this. I know you can hear me. Stay with me. Listen to my voice.  ❜
  • ❛  Maybe you just got a taste of what it really means to be alive. You almost died. So now you know what it feels like to live. To fear for that life. To fight for it. And once you know, well, there’s no going back.  ❜
  • ❛  You made a mistake. Everybody makes them. Even me. I’ve made many. It’s only fair that you made one.  ❜
  • ❛  I did only what I had to do. If I could have given my life for yours, I would have.  ❜
  • ❛  A kiss for luck. Not that I need it.  ❜
  • ❛  I know. I know what and who you are. What will you do? Kill me?  ❜
  • ❛  Why am I the only one in this fucking world to be held accountable for my actions?  ❜
  • ❛  Aren’t you afraid of dying?  ❜
  • ❛  I’m sorry. For whatever happened to you. For whoever hurt you so deeply that you see things like friends and fondness as weapons instead of shields.  ❜
  • ❛  You know so little of war. Battles may be fought from the outside in, but wars are won from the inside out.  ❜
  • ❛  Between the two of us, we’ll tear the whole world down.  ❜
  • ❛  I am going to cut that smile off your face.  ❜
  • ❛  It hurts. More than dying ever did. There are days when I feel like I deserve this.  ❜
  • ❛  Death doesn’t scare me. Not nearly as much as the idea of wasting a perfectly good life in fear of it.  ❜
  • ❛ You’re always so eager to slash and stab, why couldn’t you have stabbed him.  ❜
  • ❛  Which is it, huh? You’re angry at me, or worried about me, or happy to see me? Because I can’t keep up.  ❜
  • ❛  Wouldn’t it be amazing, if we got away with it?  ❜

Santa Clarita Diet starters

          The brunette looks up and over her shoulder from where she stands at the guest bathroom sink, hands rubbing furiously under the hot tap. The water’s murky as it circles the drain, the mud under her nails will be a bitch to get out. ( As always. ) Hazel eyes sweep over John slowly in assessment, silence filling the immaculate white tiled space between them once the water’s shut off. Palms are dragged along the legs of her jeans as she turns, the bite of counter’s edge muted by the denim as she leans back to get comfortable.

          In her past life, had she been in John’s shoes, the silence would have driven her insane, but now? Now it’s a saving grace. There’s a hell of a lot more on her plate than one would think possible. At the base of her skull the beast chuffs one good time and she concedes, teeth finding the inside corner of her lip briefly. Talk me through it, what you’re feelin’. Because to knowingly consent to hunting and killing someone is somethin’ you can’t come back from.

          The girl sighs as she climbs the library’s stone steps, one hand adjusting the strap of her backpack over her shoulder as the other keeps the phone pressed to her ear. I’ll have a venti Caffè Americano; sugar and an extra shot of espresso. Thanks, you’re the best.

          He hasn’t offered but that doesn’t stop her from making the request in the most obnoxiously sweet voice as she can muster. Despite herself she wears a lopsided smile that thankfully goes unseen upon reaching the building’s looming, heavy doors. She turns to take a quick glance at the gray skies overhead, brow furrowing against the slivers of sunlight not yet locked away. Tut tut, it looks like rain. You might want to hurry up.

send one for my muse's reaction!
“God, there’s so many ways to mess up your children.“ “At least we didn’t over-praise her, right?“ “We have to kill somebody today so you can eat them, sweetheart.” “I’m worried about [name], too, but I can’t stop thinking about the murdering and eating thing.” “I know we have to kill somebody today but we have to be parents every day.” “God, I’m so hungry. I haven’t eaten in two days.” “Do you remember that dinner we had in Tuscany?” “Running late. I’ll grab something at Starbucks.” “I have an idea. Starting tonight, we should have regular family dinners. Tell each other what’s on our mind. No judgments. Like the kind I see in your face right now.” “So, I was thinking: if we’re gonna do this, we have to do it right.” “We can’t just kill anybody. We have to kill someone who won’t be missed. Someone without a family. And someone bad who deserves it.“ “No more impulse killing, it’s too risky.“ “We have to get tarps, gloves, mops, sponges, bleach to clean up the blood…” “Hon? You don’t have to go with me.“ “I’m not sending you out to do this alone, sweetheart. We’re doing it together.” “Aww. But I’ll do the actual killing, okay? So you don’t have to worry about that.” “I am so glad this is not one of those diseases that dries your skin out.” “Speaking of Hitler, your mom called.“ “Can we get back to killing people? I feel like that’s a less loaded subject.” “You told me you were spraying ants in the middle of the night. Now I wanna know what you were using.“ “I’m telling you, he’s onto us.“ “Who talks about ants with that much intensity and innuendo?” “Did you know that ants can carry up to 50 times their weight? They’re not uninteresting creatures, [name].” “We should buy some other stuff so we don’t look suspicious.” “Suspicious that we’re cleaning our house?“ “We’re gonna have to work on how you talk about me.” “Hey, I was thinking, uh, maybe instead of ditching again today, we could go to class as an act of rebellion?” “After everything that’s happened the last couple of days, school’s too boring. I want to do something exciting.” “What are you doing here? You don’t ditch school.” “God, he’s such a sweet boy.“ “He’s not a boy, [name]. I mean, he’s a 26-year-old drug dealer who drives a car that says, ‘Ask me about my tiny dick.’” “Don’t be jealous. I just have an exciting life.” “I love you, okay? I’ll call you tonight.“ “It’s okay, it’s not your job to make me happy.” “Sounds like it was my job to make you happy and I just got fired.” “Men are such assholes.“ “We’re not killing my mother.“ “I wasn’t suggesting that, but it’s so interesting that’s where your mind went.” “Sorry. I was listening to a cooking podcast. Very relaxing. Did you know, broccoli, cauliflower, and Brussels sprouts are all from the same family?” “You can’t eat our neighbor.“ “I need food. I’m losing my mind.“ “Why is it so hard to find someone to kill? Every time I get coffee, there’s some dipshit yelling at the barista.” “We should act more normal.“ “Oh, relax, bro, you’re just buying weed.“ “Maybe we shouldn’t talk. It saddens me.“ “Mind if I smoke a little weed while we wait?” “Sometimes you do shit you never expected for the people you love.” “My wife is a realtor. I wake up one day and… so am I.“ “It’s like my life is spiraling toward disaster and there’s no way out.” “You’re not gonna die today.“ “I leave you for five fucking minutes and you bond with my dinner?” “You know, I gotta say, sometimes your pot smoking bugs me.” “It was not your job to make me happy today. But if it was, you’d be rehired.“ “Oh, shit! What did I do? I couldn’t control it. And the street’s right there, what if somebody sees us? What are we gonna do?” “I understand it’s super sexy when you take control.” “I just stuffed a man in a meat freezer. Cross that off my bucket list.”
