The Last Belmont

❝ Of course I’m safe– you would never let anything happen to me. ❞

❝ Dad. You know I won’t look like this when you get home. ❞

❝ I fear that I am too late. There are secrets they did not tell you. ❞

❝ Could you do me the favor of explaining what your husband looked like in life? ❞

❝ I know, I know this is a memory, but I haven’t seen him in so long. I just want to see his face. ❞

❝ All of the light, all of the fire, is but a shadow in the face of the dawn. ❞

❝ Just ask yourself, [Name]: whom did we betray? ❞

❝ If you look down and see the stars, what will you see if you look up? ❞

❝ It’s 1979 and discos never gonna die! ❞

❝ Say that we’ve moved on, and really so should he. ❞

❝ I’m. Feeling. Great. And don’t… care about small-talk– what do you need? ❞

❝ They’ll move or don’t. Had a couple don’t’s in the past. ❞

❝ Is there an important thing? Er- pleasantries. I am excited. You are excited. It’s gonna be fine. Is there anything else? ❞

❝ [Name]… you know, if we don’t have this relationship we don’t have to force it. ❞

❝ It’s kinda hard to shoehorn the niceties in at the end, you know what I mean? Sorta like an asterisk in the text that goes to the footnote of ‘how are you doing’. ❞

❝ Ok, everything you say worries me. ❞

❝ It seems to me that someone is ignoring someone else’s messages. ❞

❝ What fucking hairstyle check do you need from me? You look beautiful. What do you need?! ❞

❝ I’m just saying we’re going to be mingling with the same folks, if we can’t even talk amongst ourselves then it’s going to be very awkward for us. It’s going to be awkward for me quite frankly– ❞

❝ Are you making your social status my problem right now? ❞

❝ You have my unadulterated attention right now. ❞ / ❝ Well that would be the first time that’s ever happened. ❞

❝ Wait, before you go, I don’t want to leave it like this. ❞

❝ We were ok once, and maybe we can be again. Just for a moment. And then you can go back to hating me. ❞

❝ I don’t… I don’t hate you. ❞

❝ We are not a consortium of wizards, I cannot produce something from nothing! ❞

❝ [Name] this is not a problem worth dealing with!❞

❝ I said I owed them a boon, thinking that in a time of need I might come to their rescue, and they said ‘are you free on this date for the parade?’ ❞

❝ It’s a boon! Don’t pay him, it’s a boon! ❞

❝ Tough conversations are not the thing I’m most frightened of. ❞

❝ If this doesn’t seem to be important, 30 seconds in I’ll need a call. Ok? ❞

❝ I do not know to whom you spoke who felt so comfortable embracing rumor as if it were fact, but this is not the case and you have come to the wrong person. ❞

❝ You are in a different movie than the rest of us. ❞

❝ We live in an age where we now know we can write our own destiny. ❞

❝ Perhaps she tires of being a medium fish. ❞ / ❝ Well I’m not sure what good it does to be a large fish in a puddle. ❞

❝ Does divinity and the ascension thereupon cause you some disdain, [Title/Name]? ❞

❝ Can you destroy? ❞

❝ Just arm candy? She threatened to expire the help! ❞

❝ Put me where you will, in darkness I will gather my shadows to me. ❞

❝ Someone talked when they should have kept their mouths shut. ❞

❝ I fear you make your home in a pit of vipers. ❞

🗡 dying has never frightened me

so… we’ll talk later.

why won’t you stay down and die with dignity?

no. no further.

this is not over. it can’t be.

try not to have too much fun without us.

i have this blink candle. it’s formed from various animals that blink.

it’s so rare that we’re actually given the opportunity to be honest about everything. we might as well try it once and see if we like it.

you know i’m in love with you, right?

you seem… like a person. and that’s great.

those are coins! you’re not making it rain, you’re making it hail!

i’m killing someone, hold please.

your secret is safe with my indifference.

my heart is someone else’s.

do not go far from me. if we are out of earshot, you are too far from me.

um, i don’t know if it’s the food you made or the fact that we’re going to die tomorrow, but i want to kiss you.

i was all kinds of fucked up a few weeks ago.

you’re all kinds of fucked up all the time. we all are. and that’s why we’re together.

i just want to let you know… i am possibly the worst person you’ve ever met.

i think i kind of hope… not necessarily to hurt you or harm you, but i hope that one day… that you can know just how awful i can be.

you can curse, it’s okay. you killed one of us.

i think i’ve always been in love with the idea of you.

i was only gone for thirty seconds!

i encourage violence.

i can give you the means to protect them.

i do not want to die who i am. i’d like to live long enough to be someone else.

you’re on your own, fuckface.

a volcano is - is nature’s candle!

sometimes people go and they don’t come back.

do you spice?

so we’re going to kill everyone that we see in the next ten seconds.

i don’t want to be here if you’re not.

i told you before. no one kills you but me.

he traded his life!

i don’t have very many things that i care about and i don’t have anything that cares about me.

i’m great! well, not really, but i’m just going to pretend i’m happy so everybody can be okay!

i’ve been in a barrel for an hour. i fell asleep in there!

yes. i heard. it was the only thing i heard.

don’t cry. i’m just a little cold.

i bury my shame.

i should have told you. it’s yours.

forgiveness - that’s the key, isn’t it? it’s the only way to really grow.

your hair’s a mess. sit still.

you are my heart. you are me. you are my other half. you are welcome with me always.

you don’t always have to put on a brave face, dear.

we’re friends, right? are we friends?

i know we don’t always agree and i know i can be unkind, but… you know you’re family, right?

i’ve had a terrible thought. and it is sort of my business to have terrible thoughts.

take me instead.

we walk towards glory.

that’s mine! that’s mine!

did it choose me because i was broken, or did it break me?

please bring him back to me.

you think you care about me?

this was always supposed to happen, wasn’t it?

i love you. if i can find you, i will. if not, stay alive.

if he’s gone i won’t be the same.

i’d watch your moral panic all day, it’s delightful.

in many ways you are my total opposite. but you are also my best friend.

i made a choice. this is my family.

i forgive you. but i cannot let you leave.

please. please. i love him as much as you do.

fix him. fix him!

i like this family. i’d like to keep it.

i want you to know that you are like a brother to me.

talk about my sister again.

it’s been a while since we’ve had one of our depressing chats!

i can’t have you gone. i need you here.

i think we’re very broken people. but i think together we’re much greater than the sum of our parts.

don’t ever fucking do that again.

you didn’t die. but you did! but you didn’t. but you did! and then you didn’t.

i don’t want any of this! i don’t want any of this.

i’ve just had a near death experience and i’m craving some lasagna. 

you know, you’re getting weirder.

you and i are very different.

i’ve killed two of those who’ve wronged me and nothing is better. nothing feels better. nothing is avenged.

call me “child” one more goddamn time!

if you’re lucky, you die last.

some people have no sense of fucking honor!

i’ll take my clothes off if it’ll inspire us.

thank you for believing in me.

you’ve never done anything for me! never! you’ve never risked anything, you don’t know me!

everyone else believes in you. why shouldn’t you?

how many fingers am i holding up?

what’s the first letter of the alphabet? this you know.

yay! teamwork!

you fucking died!

don’t touch me right now! i’m not - don’t touch me!

i’m going to go get a sandwich.

you had us all very worried.

your reckless impulses will get you killed!

i’m done with gods. they will not help me. perhaps you will. 

this is too fucking much.

come here, you shithead.

it has been an honor.

screw you! i want my final words with you to be indignant and irritated.

you’re the face i saw when murder entered my heart.

i’m undecided about you.

never forget you’re my favorite. and i’m so sorry.

i’m not leaving him.

you’re a better man than you believe.

feel like making a home here?

you’re an idiot and i’m very proud of you. don’t do that again.

sound off if you’re alive.
