Death is Nothing

–  ‟ that’s a lot of blood. “

–  “ I can try to stop the bleeding. “

–  “ your nose is bleeding. “

–  “ I love blood. “

–  “ would you bleed for me? “

–   “ my heart is bleeding. “

–   “ are you coughing up blood?! “

–   “ I wanna see you bleed. “

–   “ why do I taste blood? “

–   “ you’re bleeding through your shirt! “

–   “ is that blood? “

–   “ why didn’t you tell me you were bleeding?! “

–   “ your blood is so pretty. “

–  “ your head is bleeding! “

–   “ did you know you’re bleeding? “

–   “ there’s blood on the walls… “

–   “ it’s just a little blood… “

–   “ that better be menstrual blood! “

–   “ i’m gonna make you bleed. “

–   “ you’re all bloody… “

–   “ yeah I know, I’m bleeding. “

–   “ you’ve got blood on your hands. “

"You are a strong woman."

"So I've always been a killer?"

"Guns are a coward's weapon."

"Quiet please, I'm threatening!"

"And what I am… is irredeemable."

"I am through being afraid of you."

"Honor. You should try it sometime."

"It's time for you to come back home."

"I set you free. Your life belongs to me."

"Death would be a release from this life."

"You know you're dating a moron, right?"

"Lurking in an alley... that's not at all creepy."

"You're hallucinating? What are you seeing?"

"As long as this city is safe, it doesn't matter."

"If you're going to kill me, just… get it over with."

"I will not be the reason something happens to you."

"All done. Not bad, but you're still gonna have a scar."

"It's harder than it looks, isn't it? Killing an unarmed man."

"No island, no place, can make you something you're not."

"If you're so scared, why did you insist on sitting up front?"

"I wouldn't be here if you hadn't been so brave. Thank you."

"Oh, you're a killer. I know, I created you. You've killed plenty."

"That's your weakness, kid. You don't have the guts to kill me."

"Look, even if I believe you, I don't have that kind of authority."

"If I say she's in there, what's keeping you from shooting me?"

"You've come very far in a few months. Don't beat yourself up."

"I know I called you a murderer, but you are not. You are a hero."

"It's easier to embrace the pain when it's all you know anymore."

"Ah, what I lack in height, I make up for in wicked good hearing."

"When I care about someone, there's nothing I won't do for them."

"I'm sorry you saw that. I can't imagine what you must think of me."

"What the hell are you doing? I thought you were done killing people!"

"I don't think there's a force on earth that can make you a bad person."

"I don't know the kid all too well, but he seems to be five kinds of angry."

"I've always wanted to say I've taken a bullet for someone, and now I can."

"Well, that's the thing about forgiveness: you can't get it until you ask for it."

"Love's the most powerful emotion, and that makes it the most dangerous."

"Oh, cool. My folks think I'm dead, too. That, or they wish I'd never been born."

"You look fabulous. Really. Better than ever. Did you do something to your hair?"

"He was so grateful to hear it. Because he so very much wants to kill you, himself."

"You fought to save me, because that's what you do, what you have always done."

"I think you're a survivor. I think you're one of the bravest people I've ever known."

"Please do not ask me if I am okay, because I am sick of everyone asking me that."

"You can harness that light that's still inside of you, but I'm not that person and I never will be."

"If you're so far gone and so irredeemable… then why would they know you by such a beautiful name?"

"There were things that I did; things that I had to do to survive. Things that there's no forgiveness for."

"There are parts of the world where death is an illusion. I've been to one. I've learned to be very convincing."

"Well, I told a guy the truth and he got struck by lightning. To be fair, probably won't happen again, statistically."

"Do you think you're the only one that is having a hard time?! Do you think you're the only one with family issues?"

"They still won't see you as anything more than the enemy. You'll never be anything but a criminal to them. Which means you'll never be a hero."

"You know, I thought I'd feel different now that he's dead, but I don't. And you always told me that killing him wouldn't change anything. You were right."

A meet cute is a fictional scene, typically in film or television, in which a future romantic couple meets for the first time in a way that is considered adorable, entertaining, or amusing.

A) Muse A reluctantly braves the cold weather to head to the local supermarket on a snowy day; Muse B is salting the sidewalk as Muse A walks by and feels pretty bad when Muse A slips on a patch of black ice they missed.  

B) Muse A is down on their luck after getting some bad news while at the winter festival. Muse B is a vendor at the festival who takes pity on Muse A after overhearing their situation and offers Muse A a delicious treat on the house. 

C) Muse A has never been skiing before but is determined to try it, especially since everyone else in their friend group has already gone. Muse B is the ski lift operator who has to rescue Muse A after they freak out and refuse to get off the lift.

D) Muse A is an aspiring figure skater who likes to practice skating at their local outdoor rink. Muse B is an avid hockey player and likes to practice at the same rink. Neither muse likes to share.

E) Muse A comes from a warmer climate and has never seen snow before, so imagine their delight exiting the airport to their first snow fall. Muse B is completely over the freezing temps and digging their car out, but can’t help noticing how in awe Muse A is when it begins to snow. They strike up a conversation about it while waiting for a rideshare.

F) Muse A spends hours each day building elaborate snow/ice sculptures in the park. Each night, a disenchanted Muse B destroys them on their walk home. One night, Muse A camps out to catch Muse B and confront them.  

G)  Muse A accepts a dare from a friend to run through the snow at a ski lodge in their underwear, only to find that they’re locked out when they return to their cabin. Muse B is the friendly staff member who rescues them from the cold and makes it their duty to help keep them warm.

H) Muse A gets stuck on the side of the road during a blizzard; Muse B has snow tires and tries to pull their vehicle out of the snow.  When they make no progress, Muse B offers to drive Muse A to their destination.

I)  Muse A and Muse B are neighbors who have never met.  When a winter storm knocks out the power to their building, Muse A, terrified of the dark, lets out a bloodcurdling scream.  Next thing they know, Muse B is banging on the door to make sure they’re okay.

J)  Muse A’s car breaks down on a deserted stretch of road in the middle of snow storm. There’s no cell service, so they decide to trek to the gas station they’d seen a few miles back to try and get help. Muse B is driving by when they see Muse A struggling against the elements and offers to help.

K)  Muse A is doing their best to keep their child entertained as they wait in line at a bakery for a winter-themed birthday cake. The little one slips free from Muse A’s grasp and runs up to Muse B ahead of them in line to ask if they want to attend their party. To Muse A’s surprise, Muse B says they’re available.

@storminmywake : Continue from here.

The pain wasn't even the worst part; he could feel himself start to lose control. Deeper, and deeper into his own mind, where neither past, present, nor even future can be distinguished. When his own reality and his his subconciousness starts threaten to collide, making it nearly indistinguishable for him to know what was real, or not.

However, as the Doctor starts to hum, and the TARDIS slowly joins, something deep in his mind grabs his senses and pulls him back to the Present thanks to the company within reality.

All was still for a moment as he let John catch his breath and recover a little from his harrowing nightmare. When the tiny apology came stuttering and tumbling out of the boy's mouth, his eyebrows shot up in surprise.

"Hush. I won't hear any of it: you have nothing to be sorry for." The Doctor said softly. He wrapped an arm around John's shoulders and gave him a hug. "Do you know, I'm over 900 years old and I still get nightmares! Just part of bein' alive and seeing the uglier side of things, 'm afraid."

John couldn't even remotely look in the Doctor's general direction. Even now, he knew he was supposed to be a good little soldier. But no matter how hard he tried, how many years had passed, no matter what he had seen and done... Something was just too strong to stand up against. Even something as small and simple as a night terror... It reminded him just how weak he really was... But to hear the Doctor say he still had some, he was a bit taken aback. Not quite surprised, more so; it just did not sink in till now. Just being alive... Looking at his own tiny hands as they tremble slightly, John stares at them. Just part of being alive. Good comes with bad, and bad comes with good. One could not exist without the other. Just how life is. This allows the small form to let out a sigh. Weakness isn't simply weakness... it can be a guardrail to protect from something worse sometimes.
