a collection of lines from the novel A House with Good Bones by T. Kingfisher, use as you wish, adjust as needed
Did you know youโve got yard vultures?
Do you know how long youโre staying?
Iโm so glad to see you. I just wish it didnโt have to be here.
You know this is your home too.
It sounds like something out a of a horror movie.
You must never allow your good name to be sullied by other peopleโs mouths.
Well, obviously the rumors werenโt true.
If Iโm going to be miserable, at least Iโll be productively miserable.
Donโt trust that guy. Heโs got an alibi. People with alibis are always suspicious.
There should be a lot more of you.
Why arenโt there more of you?
Another childhood trauma vanquished by science.
I used to have nightmares about them.
You were my baby sister and I should have protected you.
I donโt remember it happening.
Thank god you remember it too.
Christ, no wonder you hated her.
If you need money, tell me.
I wouldnโt actually do it. Iโm a very peaceful person. Usually.
I donโt like the thought of you having to be here all by yourself.
Oh god, why did I ever give up yoga?
Do you think there will be more when we get back?
I have a gun and Iโm not afraid to use it!
Donโt shoot! Itโs just me!
I donโt actually have a gun. I just thought it would scare you.
Good first impressions are so important, donโt you think?
It must be so fascinating. Like a treasure hunt.
You know I never turn down free food.
I'm not actually a warlock, I just dress like one.
I donโt believe in any of that stuff.
I know you think I'm crazy.
I hope I'm crazy. Being crazy would be a lot easier than being right about thus.
It's real. You're not imagining things.
I didn't say she wasn't dead, I said she wasn't gone.
How did you come out so well?
I can feel it all over again. I know somethings going to happen.
If you keep your mouth hanging open like that, I'm going to toss a dead mouse in it.
There may be hope for you yet.
She's dead! Very dead! Years and years dead!
I donโt even get a hello? After all these years?
Everything was wrong with me, all this time.
You've been sticking your nose in where it doesn't belong, haven't you?
Never stopped to think things might be buried for a reason, did you?
I can't believe youโre using instant mashed potatoes.
Magic. Yes, I suppose you'd call it magic.
You are being unreasonable, and you know it, but you can't admit you're wrong.
I am trying to fix things! Because none of you could ever do it for yourselves!
How dare you talk to me that way!
You can turn right around and go back to where you came from, witch.
Don't look at me. I'm just a witch.
Don't be ridiculous, you don't know him well enough to miss him.
I'll take any explanation you can give me.
Try growing a garden. I think you'd be surprisingly good at it.
They may be entirely gone, or at least mostly dead, but I don't think you should gamble on that.
