ᝰ🚬 𝚉𝙰𝙲𝙷𝚁𝙿 .ᐟ THE DEVIL ALL THE TIME (2020) PROMPTS. CHANGE ANY PRONOUNS IF NECESSARY. SOME MATURE THEMES MAY BE PRESENT.
i wanna get out of my house.
you know, i appreciate you always coming with me. i know you'd probably rather be doing something else.
it's beautiful, isn't it?
thank you. god bless you.
never crossed my mind, thinking about that.
i wanna show you something.
make a wish before that candle burns out.
it is our delusions that lead us to sin.
whoo! that'll wake you up.
good gracious. it's hot, ain't it?
i've got the holy ghost in me!
it's the best present i ever got. thank you.
well, what's the problem then, son?
how about i buy you a candy bar, huh?
wonder if you'd consider selling me it.
it's bound to get hotter.
you want your mama to die?
she might have come with us, if you'd paid her a little more attention.
be right back with you, hon.
i just thought, seeing as i was this way, i'd stop by and see the old place again.
get some shots off down there while the light's still good.
i've been run through the wringer!
what did you do about it?
i ain't gonna take the blame for no bastard child!
you want another twinkie?
before i found the holy ghost, i was scared plumb to death of spiders.
better not be one of them goddamn window peepers you keep calling about.
i'm not doing that no more, you hear me?
now you remember what i told you?
you get it all in the cup?
she'd always been sort of fucked up.
oh, shit! hey, take it easy!
damn. that's gonna be one fine sunset.
so what kind of candy bar you gonna get, huh?
i'm thinking we take a walk, be fine to pray outside and adore them trees.
this spot looks about as good a place as any, don't it?
i love you and i will always remember the things that you have done for me.
you sound like a christian.
you mean to tell me you're not gonna have a drink with a pretty little thing like her?
it seemed to his son that his father fought the devil all the time.
hell, they having a little revival meetin'.
from what folks tell me, they got a right good message.
as far as everybody around here is concerned your daddy's probably still out there somewhere alive and kicking.
everything's gonna be okay.
he would do anything to protect her.
oh, it's so good to see you, honey.
he ain't a coward, he went and got himself killed.
why don't you take that hat off, boy.
you stabbed your wife in the neck with a screwdriver, tried to bring her back from the dead and then buried her body.
wouldn't you take a piece of that?
he preached on it for years, but still didn't know what to expect.
i told you i don't like this anymore.
we keep saving, we could probably buy it. wouldn't that be something?
the lord don't like dark places.
there should be a road somewhere up here on the right.
shut your mouth. we both know that ain't never gonna happen.
now, you pray on what happened today.
here, you give me that heavy old bag.
just be you and me, sweetheart.
i'm just gonna take my break outside.
i just want you to know that i ain't never forgot it.
well.. it was a rough time.
i've been watching your every move for the last couple weeks.
i left her a dollar tip, though.
ain't no human head big enough to calculate misery like that!
you're coming with me today, boy.
it wasn't that bad. it wasn't that bad.
i figure he'd want you to have it.
you can understand that, can't you?
you ain't losing nothing there.
when the man who puts extra money in your pockets asks why you're as red as a newborn baby, you tell him who the whore is.
there's no doubt, we're all humble people gathered here.
ol' jesus probably had his fair share of bad mornings.
i'll have to think about it.
what happened today. now, remember, be honest. no bullshittin', he'll know.
i bet he ain't got two nickels to rub together.
do what i say, you son of a bitch.
what in the hell is this?
the holy ghost is going to visit this little church that bears his sacred name!
that is a nice gift, though.
i was just looking the land over.
i got no rest from them devils!
he has lots of grass to play on now.
there's a lot of no good sons of bitches out there.
well, that's what i'm here for.
have you shown yourself as the lord made you?
i was a runt, hiding under my mother's long skirts, spiders crawling through my dreams.
what is it you're most afraid of? hmm? because if your worst fear is rats, well.. satan'll make sure you get your fill of them.
how about we check into a motel?
they were gonna kill me, i swear.
don't be crying, you hear?
you're coming out back with me today, boy.
didn't you hear anything i said?
you know that she ain't hardly been out of her bed since the funeral?
it should be a good thing, helping someone out.
i'm sorry for bringing it up.
i don't know if you have anywhere you gotta be but, uh.. maybe we can take a drive.
behold! the lord looks out for me now!
i'll take coffee if you got any.
so good to see you. thank you for coming.
there's a girl from church i want you to meet.
i don't understand people that won't pick up strangers.
well, she won't forget that.
i've got an election to think about.
i just don't know much about the bible is all.
she got it in her head that i was the father.
once i'd had a taste, i just couldn't get enough.
please do not try and find me.
you know, we did him a favor.
it didn't have anything to do with you.
how can you be close to god stuck in there?
i know there's other things you wanna be doing probably.
get the fuck out of my diner.
that was nice, what you did.
well, i ain't never got her name.
rent seems fair for what we get.
that's gonna cost me my money.
see that one in the wheelchair? drank too much strychnine or antifreeze, or something is why he can't walk.
he'd never win a fist fight, but he could recite the book of revelation in his sleep.
what i'm about to do, i do because i have to, not because i want to.
i never missed church before.
some people just need a little help once in a while, you know what i mean?
you ever go and beat the shit outta someone i made my money off?
i won't speak to nobody else.
come on, you dumb son of a bitch.
only in the presence of death could he feel the presence of something like god.
did you need anything else?
i hate to tell you this, but that place burned some years ago.
you still got the bullshit in you, ain't you?
what you got planned after school?
maybe that's where he belonged.
i had fear in me all the time, awake or asleep, didn't matter.
what's your name, sweetie?
you'll see them, eating away at you whilst you lay there unable to lift a single finger. and it won't ever cease.
he's gonna fuckin' kill him!
no, you go on and take another one.
you know i can't afford anything like that.
yeah, well, that ain't my problem.
some people were born just so they could be buried.
get out. i told you last time.
what the fuck is going on out here?
how's about we, uh.. go see your mama's grave when you're better? sound all right?
i got some things to do before we go home.
sorry i didn't come today.
come on out so we can have us a talk!
that sounds like a crazy person who killed his wife.
no sense in you napping in here like a house cat all day.
that's your weekly earnings 'til we're square.
we got cozy rooms in the back if you need some company.
people like me in this town.
shit, i'm thinking now'd be a good time to pay his old lady a visit.
if we stay off highways, we should be fine.
we're kin, we gotta look out for each other.
you back home from the war?
they got a little trigger, back there in their throat.
come on and pray with me.
everything's from the bible, honey.
you ain't got nothing to be ashamed of.
we're saving money to buy the house one day, so things are gonna be tight for a while.
huh? ain't she somethin'?
i've been thinking, maybe the lord wants you to come out into the light.
there was nothing to do but forget his sorry ass.
get the fuck out of here!
there's money to be made if a man of the law is careful and doesn't get a big head.
i don't like this gospel shit.
you look like you've been traveling.
do you really want these hands touching you?
will you get me some sugar?
you got a deposit to make, sir?
i'm just passing through.
maybe you should try praying for 'em then.
remember that night you brought me up here?
that preacher's a little flashy.
i gotta go check in on her, she ain't been feeling too good.
looks like you had a rough day.
there's just some things we can't understand.
you're so damn ugly, i'd need a sack over your head just to get a hard-on.
he came every morning and evening to talk to god.
i know. i felt the need to celebrate. i'm in love.
i got no use for handguns myself.
i bet he just wanted them chicken livers all for his own self.
i'm giving you a good thing here, buddy.
it's nothing. i just get down sometimes.
me losing money is gonna cost you your cut.
i know you like this waitress.
we didn't go to church much when i was a kid.
i've been doing wrong and i wanna get right by the lord.
y'all have been awful nice to me and i thank you from the bottom of my heart for the welcome.
what's going on here, mister?
i don't understand what you're talking about.
if we just pray hard enough the lord can do anything if you just ask him right.
son of a bitch has it coming.
we need your help, and i know you can do it.
don't you worry about that pus-gutted blowhard.
you'll feel better in the morning.
i would appreciate it if you all would try and make him feel welcome.
i told you, sweetie, it's only matter of time.
i wanna get some shots of your ugly old mug sitting next to a pretty lady.
i don't wanna go to church.
i hear you! yes, i am here!
you've been spying on me, boy?
you touch my sister again, i'll kill you. do you understand me?
ain't no man ever been evil enough.
we'll sit out and drink some beer.
stop tearing my damn kitchen apart.
there's a quiet place i found i like to go and pray on things.
the girl's family burned up in a house fire leaving the poor thing all alone.
what the fuck you talking about?
why don't you just lie down on that blanket there on your side.
i got the urge to pray again.
is that blood on your face?
still thinking about that gun you showed me.
those little shits keep picking on him. it ain't right.
i've never heard of such a thing.
not that you'd appreciate it, but tears make for a good photograph.
i'm saying you must be crazy.
why don't you put the gun down and we can talk all about it.
you're gonna fuck my wife and i'm gonna take some pictures, that's all.
the spirit will take away your fears if you're willing!
i'm gonna scramble some eggs. you want some?
i've done.. lustful acts.
envy. brings out the worst in people.
maybe we should just get out of here.
we are so happy you're here.
them boys might be bigger than you. but the next time one of them starts his shit, i want you to finish it. you understand?
sorry to come by so early, i was on my way to work and i thought i might chew your ear.
don't you touch that fuckin' camera there, son.
i got me a pretty wife at home.
we'll just take a few pictures and then the big dumb bastard will leave us alone.
i remember everything about that night.
don't act like you do nothing wrong.
i know you're down there somewhere!
i could tell the police what happened, that it was an accident.
oh, lord, i was so worried.
shotgun's what'll do you good.
lord knows where a person who ain't saved might end up.
anyway, everyone says ain't no one doesn't like you, you know that.
you might not even be an orphan.
i never been so embarrassed in all my life.
mister, i do appreciate this.
i know what my daddy did.
this photo really meant something to him.
god had a tendency of asking men to make sacrifices in order to prove their faith.
i was like you when i was your age.
i'm sure the lord will forgive you for missing one sunday.
i would ask you to get down and thank jesus with me, but i can smell the liquor on your breath.
i ain't gonna sleep tonight as it is.
i don't wanna shoot you! put the gun down!
he's as bad as they got on the damn radio.
you think that guy lied to me?
that's right. don't y'all worry about me. maybe i oughta take me a nap.
i've already forgiven him.
now, that's what hell is like!
don't do anything you'll regret, son.
you know what would do you good?
i didn't think anybody was gonna pick me up.
so, what'll you be having?
