Money Makes the World Go Round

❛   you must forgive my lips… they find pleasure in the most unusual places.   ❜ ❛   i don’t bite, you know… unless it’s called for.   ❜ ❛   perhaps you should mind your tongue, lest i put it to better use.   ❜   ❛   i love watching you react, how but a few words can turn your entire world on its axis. i revel in it.   ❜   ❛   go ahead, come a little closer. curiosity isn’t so bad, now is it? let it drive you further and further into the abyss.   ❜   ❛   are you getting possessive? come now love, you know better than to think i could ever belong to anyone, least of all you!   ❜   ❛   what happened, what’s going on? everything’s so dark…   ❜   ❛   curiosity may have killed the cat, but satisfaction brought it back. so why do i feel like i’ve fallen into pieces?   ❜   ❛   some things are better left undiscovered.   ❜   ❛   you’d look so much prettier in red… shall i coat you in it?   ❜   ❛   that… that’s not really paint, is it?   ❜   ❛   you can follow the trail, if you wish, but remember! the road back may become too obscured to follow.   ❜   ❛   i think i’ve gotten lost, i’m still me but everything feels twisted.   ❜   ❛   don’t you worry my dear, i’ll take good care of you i promise. didn’t you know a demon/monster always keeps his/her word?   ❜   ❛   don’t you worry about a thing pet, i’ll take care of everything so just sit there and look pretty for me.   ❜   ❛   i have to get back, i can’t stay here!   ❜   ❛   did you really think i’d let you go so easily?   ❜   ❛   nothing’s over while i’m breathing!   ❜

a  kiss  that  won’t  be  remembered.

“When you start to eat like this, something is the matter.” “It is infuriating that your unhappiness does not turn to fat.” “I already know an awful lot of people. Until one of them dies I couldn't possibly meet anyone else.” “You give up awfully easily, don’t you?” “You’re blocking my view.“ “Wasn’t it Shakespeare who said when strangers do meet in far-off lands they should ere long see each other again?” “Shakespeare never said that.“ “I’m very cold.“ “That’s a face you don’t forget.“ “[NAME], if I had a quarter of a million dollars… believe me, I’d know it.“ “Didn’t you telephone me to meet you on that corner over there?” “Do you understand French?“ “I wish you’d let me help you.“ “How about making me vice president in charge of cheering you up?” “You’re absolutely insane!“ “What’s the matter? What are you doing in here?“ “Stop bullying me. Everybody’s bullying me.“ “Being murdered in cold blood is not nonsense. Why don’t you try it sometime?“ “Would you mind seeing me to the door?“ “Look, I know it’s asking you to stretch your imagination, but… don’t you think you could pretend just for a moment that I’m a woman?” “How about once more around the park?“ “How about getting out of here?“ “Won’t you come in for a minute?“ “I don’t bite, you know, unless it’s called for.” “Stop treating me like a child.“ “If you want to tell me what’s troubling you, fine. If not, I’m tired, it’s late and I want to go home to bed.” “Do you know what's wrong with you? Nothing.“ “Be careful.“ “I thought we had an agreement.“ “[NAME], help me. You’re the only one I can trust.” “I’ll help you. I told you I would. Come on.“ “Oh, I’m so hungry I could faint.“ “Promise me you’ll never lie to me.” “Try to get some sleep. You’ll feel better.” “No cat and mouse. You’ve got me. What do you want to know?” “I’m on your side. Just believe that.” “How can I believe you? You lied to me after promising you wouldn’t.” “Sit still. It’s not too bad. You won’t be able to lie on your back for a few days. But then, you can lie from any position, can’t you?“ “[NAME], how can you tell if anyone’s lying or not?” “I don’t want to be serious, and I especially don’t want you to be.” “Okay, we’ll just sit around all day long being frivolous. How about that, hmm?” “[NAME], I think I love you.“ “Are you a real cowboy?“ “Stop lying to me.“ “Would you swing down from there on a rope to save the woman you love? Like the hunchback of Notre Dame.” “Hurry up and change. I’m starved.“ “I can think of a dozen men who are just longing to use my shower.” “What’s the matter? Is something wrong?” “You’re probably weak from hunger. You’ve only eaten five times today.” “You mean you’re a thief?“ “Oh, I could eat a horse.“ “Well, what would you like me to say? That a pretty girl with an outrageous manner means more to an old pro like me than a quarter of a million dollars?” “Hasn’t it occurred to you… that I’m having a tough time keeping my hands off you?” “Oh, you should see your face. It’s lovely.“ “You don’t look so bad in this light.” “I bet you don't really need those glasses.” “I love you, [NAME].” “There’s no law against stealing stolen money.“ “I don’t want to kill you, but I will.” “Is that all the gratitude I get for saving your hide?” “Of all the mean… rotten… contemptible, crooked -” “Crooked? I should think you’d be glad to find out I’m not crooked.” “You can’t even be honest about being dishonest.” “One day next week I’ll put my name on our marriage license. How about that?”
