“Why  did  you  come?  I  will  not  let  you  stay.”

“There  is  something  mysterious  in  the  air  this  morning.”

“I  don’t  believe  you.”

“It’s  a  wild,  dreary  enough  place  to  my  mind,  though  there’s  plenty  that  likes  it—particularly  when  the  heather’s  in  bloom.”

“Could  you  keep  a  secret,  if  I  told  you  one?”

“You  do  cheer  me  up.  I  like  to  hear  you  talk.”

“I  think  you  shall  be  a  secret,  too.”

“I  wasn’t  as  contrary  as  they  were.”

“Where  you  tend  a  rose,  a  thistle  cannot  grow”

"Do  they  take  good  care  of  you?"

“Whatever  happens,  you—you  never  would  tell?”

“I  suppose  you  might  as  well  be  told  something—to  prepare  you.  You  are  going  to  a  queer  place.”

“What  do  you  do  in  your  cottage  when  it  rains  like  this?”

“I  wish  I  could  go  to  sleep  before  you  leave  me...”

“You  ought  to  have  gone  to  the  hills  two  weeks  ago.”

“Do  you  want  me  to  kiss  you?”

“They  may  drag  me  in  but  they  can't  make  me  talk  when  they  get  me  here.”

“I  shall  lose  my  place  working  here—I  shall  for  sure!”

“I  turned  round  the  wrong  corner,  I  didn’t  know  which  way  to  go.”

“So  long  as  I  know  what’s  expected  of  me,  I  can  manage.”

“Where  is  home?”

“I’ll  come  every  day  if  tha'  wants  me,  rain  or  shine.”

“Springtime’s  comin'.  Can't  you  smell  it?”

“You're  a  good  bit  stronger  than  you  were;  you're  beginning  to  look  different.”

“You  smell  like  flowers  and—and  fresh  things.  What  is  it  you  smell  of?  It's  cool  and  warm  and  sweet  all  at  the  same  time.”

“I'm  so  happy  I  can  scarcely  breathe!”

“People  never  like  me,  and  I  never  like  people.”

“You  are  just  what  I—what  I  wanted.”

“Perhaps  I  have  been  all  wrong.  Ten  years  is  a  long  time.  It  may  be  too  late  to  do  anything—quite  too  late.  What  have  I  been  thinking  of?”

“Now,  it  need  not  be  a  secret  any  more.”

“I  shall  come  back  this  afternoon.”

“Do  you  understand  everything  birds  say?”

“You  are  prettier  than  anything  else  in  the  world.”

“I  have  no  friends  at  all,  I  never  had.”

“I  wonder  if  they  are  all  quite  dead,  is  it  all  a  quite  dead  garden?”

“I  had  never  seemed  to  really  be  anyone’s  little  girl.”

“What!  You  thought  I  was  a  what?!”

“The  thought  of  that  pleases  me  very  much.”

“I  packed  her  small  trunk  and  made  the  journey.”

“The  house  is  six  hundred  years  old  and  it’s  on  the  edge  of  the  moor,  and  there’s  near  a  hundred  rooms  in  it,  though  most  of  them’s  shut  up  and  locked.”

“I  have  nothing—and  no  one.”

“There’ll  be  a  fountain  o’  roses  here  this  summer.”

“Come  with  me  and  I’ll  show  you.”

“You  remind  me  of  some  one  else  who  loved  the  earth  and  things  that  grow.”

“Shut  your  eyes.  I  will  stroke  your  hand  and  sing  something  quite  low  until  you  fall  asleep.”

“Did  you  feel  as  if  you  hated  people?”

“I  wish  I  were  friends  with  things,  but  I'm  not.  I  never  had  anything  to  be  friends  with,  and  I  can't  bear  people.”

“Would  you  like  me  to  sing  you  that  song  I  learned  when  I  was  little?”

“The  servants  are  not  allowed  to  speak  about  me”

“That  isn't  the  wind.  It  is  different.”

“Who  are  you?  Are  you  a  ghost?”

“You  are  real,  aren't  you?  I  have  such  real  dreams  very  often.  You  might  be  one  of  them.”

“If  there  was  a  door,  hidden  somewhere  under  the  ivy—if  there  was—and  we  could  find  it.”

“Someone  has  died.”

“It  makes  it  easier.  I  don't  like  havin'  to  hide  things.”

“Why  does  nobody  come?”

“It  is  a  queer,  pretty  place!  It’s  as  if  you  were  in  a  dream.”

“I  said  I  would  never  go  back  again—  but  perhaps  —”

“He's  a  common  cottage  boy  off  the  moor!”

“I’ve  no  patience  with  folk  that  sit  and  just  stare  at  good  bread  and  meat  and  let  it  go  to  waste.”

“Why  does  it  make  you  angry  when  you  are  looked  at?”

“The  rain  is  as  contrary  as  I  ever  was.  It  came  because  it  knew  I  did  not  want  it.”

“Besides,  she  is  mine  and  I  don't  want  every  one  to  see  her.”

“I  will  come  as  often  as  I  can.”

“Come  in,  I've  been  thinking  about  you  all  morning.”

“Sometimes  when  I  open  my  eyes  I  don't  believe  I'm  awake.”

“Don't  let  us  talk  about dying;  I  don't  like  it.  Let  us  talk  about  living.”

“Why  was  I  forgotten?”

“Do  you  think  he  will  die?”

“I  want  to  do  it  before  the  sun  goes  quite—quite  down.”

“It  would  not  be  wise  to  try  to  stop  me,  I  am  going.”

“Do  you  know  who  I  am?”

“Let's  hope  they're  changing  for  the  better,  [name].”

“I am  always  better  when  you  are  with  me.”

“You  did  not  say  the  illness  had  broken  out  among  your  servants.”

“I  heard  there  was  a  child,  though  no  one  ever  saw  her.”

“It  was  in  that  strange  and  sudden  way  that  I  found  out  that  I  had  neither  father  nor  mother  left.”

“You  are  going  to  be  sent  home  at  the  end  of  the  week.”

“Have  you  to  do  what  I  please  or  have  you  not?”

“When  first  we  got  in  here,  it  seemed  like  everything  was  grey.  Look  round  now  and  tell  me  if  thou  doesn't  see  a  difference.”

“I  don't  know  what  to  do.  I  don't  know  what  to  do,  I  can't  bear  it.”

“You  don’t  know  anything.”

“I'm  always  thinking  about  it—but  we  couldn't  go  on  like  this  much  longer.  I  can't  stand  lying  still  and  pretending.”

“They  are  always  whispering  about  it  and  thinking  I  don't  notice.”

“I  know  what  you  want  me  to  tell  you.  I  always  know  when  you  want  me  to  tell  you  something”

“Who  is  coming  in  here?  Who  is  it?”

“If  you  scream  another  scream,  I'll  scream  too—and  I  can  scream  louder  than  you  can!”

“You  see  we  can't  help  laughing  nearly  all  the  time  when  we  are  together.”

“There's  no  one  left  to  come.”

“I  will  try  to  find  the  key,  I  will  try  to  open  the  door.  I  must—though  I  don't  know  why.”

“Why?  Because  those  children  have  scarcely  ever  had  their  stomachs  full  in  their  lives.”

“I won't  have  people  whispering  and  asking  questions.”

“I  will  not  let  any  one  know  where  I  go”

“He  ought  to  be  stopped!  Somebody  ought  to  make  him  stop!”

“Are  you  making  Magic?”

“I  am  not  going  to  be  a  poor  thing.  I  won't  let  people  think  I'm  one.”

“I  shall  send  for  you  sometimes  to  help—but  you  must  come  when  no  one  can  see  you.”

nobody ever chooses me.

Not the point. She dealt with the consequences. The first one was when they got back and Superfly was waiting in front of the tv looking like somebody just vomited in the backseat of his car. Now she’s sitting through another lecture. It’s not worth the back and forth. Of course it’s about who’s right and who’s wrong, because she wouldn’t need to stare at the crack in the wall right next to his head and wait for him to finish. You don’t trust us to make the right choice. She won’t say that.

“ You know they don’t listen to ya’, Wing. “  The words just come out, just like that. He doesn’t have the energy to try and sand their edges, or to clarify that no, it’s nothing she’s doing wrong; it’s just that she’s not as outspoken, or she’s one of the youngest, or the others just don’t fucking listen — he doesn’t know. And right now, he doesn’t care. Which means he’s just gonna say it like it is and she’s just gonna have to DEAL WITH IT for now.

Insomnia starters

“ They are, “  they agree. They still recounted the first time they saw the stars from Earth’s surface; they’d once paid them no mind, deemed them irrelevant to their attention. How quickly that changed, once shown just how much awe they brought to those who did not live among them in a previous life.
