“Oh my god, how long until you’re done with that potion!” “Oh my god, how long until you’re done with that spell!” “You shouldn’t use your powers for personal gain.” “They’re my powers, my magic, and I’ll use it to do what I damned well please.” “Why don’t you make yourself useful and start lighting the candles?” “What happened back there? It looked like that spell took a lot out of you.” “Love spells are fucked up, you know? You shouldn’t do that.” “Did you do that on purpose? You witch.” “Asshole stole my spell!” “Your magic has made you a monster.” “What happened to you [ name ]. What happened to the [ witch / fairy / etc ] I met at [ time / location / event ]? You’re a monster.” “Oh I’m the monster, look at them!” “This is bullshit, that’s not my future, you’re a fraud!” “Just because you don’t want to believe in it, doesn’t ,mean it’s not true.” “You can deny it all you want, but you saw it, magic is real.” “This school is where we learn how to control and use our powers, plus it’s nice to meet other [ witch / fairy / etc ] when you don’t really have anyone to relate to in the ‘real world’.” “I can do the spell, for a price that is.” “You shouldn’t take advantage of people who need your help, you should want to use your magic to protect them.” “Magic is one of the most powerful forces on this earth!” “Dark magic can be… addictive…” “It doesn’t work like that, magic can only do so much.” “What are you talking about! I’m the one in control! Look at what I can do!” “Magic doesn’t have to always come at a price, not if you use it properly.” “Magic always has a price.” “How did you do that!? That’s impossible!” “The dark magic, it turned [ him / her / them ] into a different person. It does that to people.” “I’m powerful and I’m pissed off, you do not want to get in my way.” “I had to wean myself off the dark magic on my own.” “I’m fine, it was just a big spell… don’t worry about me.” “I can’t control it, I can’t control my powers! I can’t stop!” “Breathe, just breathe, relax, you’re a powerful [ witch / fairy / etc ], you can take back control.” “That was flashy, but ultimately useless.” “How did you do that spell? Can you teach me?” “Magic is supposed to help people! You aren’t supposed to use it to hurt them.” “[ he / she / they ] is using dark magic, we need to stop them before something terrible happens.” “You can’t just use magic to solve all of your problems.” “Why tidy your rooms when you can just use magic?” “There’s no going back from it if you cast that spell.” “[ he / she / they ] tricked me into helping them with a dark spell. People got hurt. It was my fault.” “I can’t stop doing it, the dark magic, it’s addictive.” “Life isn’t always fair, I have magic, why shouldn’t I use it?” “I want to show the world how powerful I am, they should be afraid of me, I could wipe them all out with a thought.” “You’re losing control, you need to focus.” “Are you serious!? [ he / she / they ] is the most powerful  [ witch / fairy / etc ] I’ve heard of! We can’t stop [ him / her / them ], we don’t stand a chance!”

“ of course they were wrong. ” “ every act of violence was deliberate. ” “ every favor came with enough strings attached to stage a puppet show. ” “ it’s always good to have a country in debt to you. ” “ this night smelled like violence. ” “ it’s about sending a message. ” “ i’m not going to bet on my own death. ” “ i don’t know what you are, but you’re not made right. ” “ when everyone knows you’re a monster, you needn’t waste time doing every monstrous thing. ” “ greed bows to me. ” “ i don’t think gods work that way. ” “ men mock the gods until they need them. ” “ are you going to tell us anything else about your miraculous plan? ” “ there’s a difference between confidence and arrogance. ” “ i’m not sure i have a heart to give anymore. ” “ unless you can be useful, go away. ” “ i’ll make you wish for death. ” “ i’m not in a very rational mood. ” “ you do not argue with a man covered in blood and a knife up his sleeve. ” “ look for miracles and listen to bedtime stories. ” “ if they want my blood, let them come for it. ” “ it is an insult to the dog to call you one. ” “ i’m going to feed you to a pack of hungry hounds. ” “ congratulations on your recent advancement to murderer of rank. ” “ i’ve spent most of this last year trying to find a way to set things right. ” “ has a true word ever left your lips? ” “ i might have loved you too. ” “ your conscience is interfering with your memory. ” “ i’m a very valuable investment. ” “ i don’t want to go back to sleep yet. ” “ at least we’re both the same kind of stupid. ” “ i’ve been looking for an excuse to talk to you for two days. ” “ i don’t want your prayers. ” “ our luck is changing. ” “ that seems like cheating. ” “ we both must take the risk together. ” “ you’ll see who wins in the end. ” “ don’t leave me. ” “ someone had to pay. ” “ doesn’t matter how big the gun is if you don’t know where to point it. ” “ we’ve managed to get ourselves locked into the most secure prison in the world. ” “ the trick is in getting back up. ” “ i’m not going to pretend everything is okay. ” “ i don’t want to kill people, not really. ” “ i’m already a ghost. ” “ better terrible truths than kind lies. ” “ the heart is an arrow. ” “ how long have you been holding onto nothing? ” “ i practice the art of ‘pull his shirt over his head and punch till you see blood’. ” “ i made a bad call, and i deserve the blame for it. ” “ if we don’t survive this night, i will die unafraid. ” “ you should have drowned. ” “ you don’t deserve miracles. ” “ if your god is so delicate, maybe you should get a new one. ” “ we really need to get more suitable friends. ” “ you know they would not offer you mercy. ” “ let them live in shame instead. ” “ we are all someone’s monster. ” “ i want you to stay. i want you to … i want you. ” “ and how will you have me? ” “ give me a reason to stay. ” “ we all carry our sins. ”
