𝐆𝐄𝐍𝐄𝐒𝐈𝐒

you probably saved more lives than you took.

that's what i told myself. but they were all human beings.

i saw what i was, & what i was capable of.

why are you telling me this tonight?

i know i can do this. let me tell you why: because you did.

so this party ... will there be strippers?

i'll meet you at the altar.

what did i say about beauty sleep?

sorry. bad dream.

weddings – they bring everyone together!

oh my gosh, you're so beautiful!

it's your first family heirloom.

no – ! no smudging my masterpiece!

just don't let me fall.

we were just saying how pretty everything is.

you don't think it's too much?

i hope you'll be happy, [ name ].

well, i plan on getting drunk.

they're serving up some pretty fancy champagne, can i get you a glass?

what's a wedding without some family drama?

uh, i'd like to propose a toast!

i know things. like how to hunt somebody to the ends of the earth.

it's an extraordinary thing, to meet someone you can bare your soul to.

i've been waiting ... what seems like a very long time, to get beyond what i am.

no measure of time with you will be long enough. but let's start with forever.

'kind' is my middle name.

dance with me?

where have you been? we were going to put your face on a milk carton.

it's weird to back on two legs again ... in clothes.

gotten out of practice with the whole human thing.

you'd think i'd be used to telling you goodbye by now.

you're not supposed to be the one crying, [ name ].

this is how i'm going to remember you.

because what, soon i'm going to be dead to you?

tell me you're not that stupid.

i mean, it's really none of your business.

people are probably missing us, let's go back.

wear a hat. sunscreen ... take care of yourself.

everything's packed & ready to go.

you know this will always be your home, right?

go on, you don't wanna miss your plane. wherever it's going.

i am nothing if not traditional.

you want to take a look around?

i could use a few human minutes.

how badly are you hurt?

[ name ], i can't tell you how sorry i am.

now i'm sort of pissed off, actually.

i mean, it was amazing for me.

that's what you're worried about?

last night was the best night of my existence.

let me make you breakfast.

i mean, being any kind of happy is better than being miserable.

my period, it's late.

i think that i'm pregnant.

i'm begging you, i'll do anything.

listen, just give it to me straight.

we've been researching legends, but there isn't much to go on.

this is none of your business, dog.

[ name ], you've gotta do something.

it's not his decision, it's not any of yours.

look, [ name ], i need you to do something for me.

you'll get what you always wanted. to kill me.

you don't fool me.

i can see what that thing's doing to you.

and when you die, what was the point?

listen to me, [ name ], please. don't do this. live.

i know how this ends, & i'm not sticking around to watch.

don't you even care that it's killing you?

we can't allow it.

every human will be in danger.

we have real enemies to fight tonight.

you will fight with us, [ name ].

i wasn't born to follow you, or anyone else.

don't worry, they're not following us.

what do you think you're doing here?

i'm not kidding. get out of here.

is that an order? you gonna make me bow down, too?

are you really ready to fight your own family?

if it's the right thing to do.

do what you want.

man, i can smell them from all the way out here.

go away, [ name ]! i can take care of myself.

did [ name ] send you?

we won't be the ones to break the treaty.

you've done us a great service, [ name ]. thank you.

i know they're out there somewhere.

you know you can't stay here.

you don't even like me.

i don't have to like you, i just have to follow you.

being unwanted isn't exactly a new thing for me.

look, i'll stay out of your way. i'll do whatever you want.

i'm gonna do a perimeter run.

[ name ], tell me. it's alright.

i can't stop it, & i can't slow it down.

i can't live without you.

you decided this on your own.

i have no other way to see it.

it wasn't an idea, it was a snide comment.

your pulse is already getting stronger.

i'm sorry i've been so angry.

i've left you alone in this.

they won't hesitate, you will be slaughtered.

this really is a family. as strong as the one i was born into.

how's the new family working out?

stay focused, keep your heart beating.

you probably saved more lives than you took.

that's what i told myself. but they were all human beings.

❛ come to me. ❜

❛ a guardian angel. a spirit of comfort. spirit of any celestial sphere. anything. hear my call. ❜

❛ you wakened me from an eternity of darkness. ❜

❛ you are not for the living. you are not for human kind. ❜

❛ and shall you be one with me ever-eternally? ❜

❛ come here. there’s nothing to be afraid of. ❜

❛ i wish i could stay, my love. ❜

❛ why have you killed these beautiful flowers? ❜

❛ i must tell you my dream. ❜

❛ i’d never been so happy as that moment… as i held hands with death. ❜

❛ i wish you to have all you deserve. ❜

❛ you mustn’t leave. i love you too much. ❜

❛ i will stay with you until you are fast asleep. ❜

❛ uh, forgive me. i only wish to stay one night. ❜

❛ by god’s name, never speak of that castle. ❜

❛ i banish you, i banish you with garlic. ❜

❛ beware of his shadow. ❜

❛ the shadow covers you in a nightmare. ❜

❛ you are late. the midnight hour has passed. ❜

❛ i wish you to do as i request. ❜

❛ i will be addressed as the honor of my blood demands it.❜

❛ speak not of it again! ❜

❛ take heed what you do. ❜

❛ i might ease your wound. ❜

❛ come by the fire. ❜

❛ your face shows you unwell. ❜

❛ do you ever feel at times as if you were not… as if you were not a person? ❜

❛ look at the sky. look at the sea. does it never call to you, urge you? ❜

❛ you are fortunate in your love. ❜

❛ now are we neighbors. ❜

❛ it is late. you must wish to retire. ❜

❛ i have been enduring the most irregular dreams. i fear i am taken ill. ❜

❛ it is a black omen to journey in poor health. you will remain and well rest yourself. ❜

❛ dream of me. only me. ❜

❛ oh, he’s coming to me. ❜

❛ i cannot resist you, my love. ❜

❛ i am no one. i am his servant. ❜

❛ look, this is a pretty one. his lordship likes the pretty ones… ❜

❛ you are lost in his shadow. ❜

❛ soon i will no longer be a shadow to you. ❜

❛ soon our flesh shall embrace and we shall be as one. ❜

❛ i have not failed your lordship! ❜

❛ embrace me, my boy. i am so rejoiced to see you. ❜

❛ my dear creature, yes, i am he, and i am hither come to help you. ❜

❛ my dreams grow darker. ❜

❛ does evil come from within us or from beyond? ❜

❛ i shall persist to join you every night… first in sleep, then in your arms. ❜

❛ everything will be mixed with abomination, and you’ll be knee-deep in blood. ❜

❛ you are promised to me! ❜

❛ i will end this plague. this devil. ❜

❛ he hasn’t found you. ❜

❛ i feared i’d never see you again. ❜

❛ you shall crave of me nothing. ❜

❛ the bells of dawn shall toll in despair of my coming. and i shall taste of you. ❜

❛ pray, forgive me for all the troubles i have caused you. ❜

❛ i am only glad you have become yourself again. ❜

❛ may i… stay with you tonight? ❜

❛ this creature is a force more powerful than evil. it is death itself. ❜

❛ i have seen things in this world that would’ve made isaac newton crawl back into his mother’s womb. ❜

❛ i have wrestled with the devil as jacob wrestled the angel in peniel. ❜

❛ if we are to tame darkness, we must first face that it exists. ❜

❛ i have felt you crawling like a serpent in my body. ❜

❛ love is inferior to you. ❜

❛ i told you, you are not of humankind. ❜

❛ i am an appetite. nothing more. ❜

❛ i lay within the darkest pit. till you did wake me, enchantress, and stirred me from my grave. ❜

❛ you are my affliction. ❜

❛ i care nothing of your afflictions. ❜

❛ yet even now we are fated. ❜

❛ your passion is bound to me. ❜

❛ you cannot love. ❜

❛ yet i cannot be sated without you. ❜

❛ remember how once we were? ❜

❛ i abhor you. ❜

❛ i will leave you three nights. tonight was the first. ❜

❛ tonight you denied yourself, and thereby, you suffer me to vanish up the lives of those you love. ❜

❛ you revel in my torture. ❜

❛ upon the third night, you will submit, or he you call your husband shall perish by my hand. ❜

❛ till you bid me come shall you watch the world become as naught. ❜

❛ tell me, what is this insufferable darkness? ❜

❛ nothing you can say will shake me, for there is a devil in this world, and i have met him. ❜

❛ i’ve brought this evil upon us. ❜

❛ i sought company. i sought… tenderness, and i called out. ❜

❛ at first, it was sweet. i had never known such bliss. yet it turned to torture. ❜

❛ it was you that gave me the courage to be free of my shame. ❜

❛ he took me as his lover then, and now he has come back. ❜

❛ all my sleeping thoughts are of him every night. ❜

❛ don’t touch me! i am not to be touched. ❜

❛ i’ll be good. i promise. ❜

❛ you could never please me as he could. ❜

❛ yes! take me! ❜

❛ kiss me. kiss my heart. ❜

❛ let him see. let him see our love. ❜

❛ without you, i will become a demon. ❜

❛ you’re safe with me. ❜

❛ keep away from me. i am unclean. ❜

❛ he will murder you if i do not go to him. ❜

❛ kill him i will. he shall never harm you again. ❜

❛ i can weep no longer, for i have no more tears to shed. ❜

❛ the grim reaper wields his heavy scythe with every change of wind. ❜

❛ the monster left you to the wolves, yet you prevailed. ❜

❛ his pull to me is so powerful, so terrible, yet my spirit cannot be evil as his. ❜

❛ we must know evil to be able to destroy it. ❜

❛ you are our salvation. ❜

❛ i bid you, come to me. ❜
