STRIKE THE SUN.

GUESS WHO’S MOVED BLOGS, it’s malakh.

featuring literally all of my tumblr muses, though some pages are still WIP and i’ve probably forgotten to add some things. primarily black sails muses, with a bunch of ocs and of course my bedlam stacks lads.

i’ll be dropping the vast majority of my interactions on here (+my sideblogs) to give myself a fresh start, but pls feel free to hop into the inbox at any point. however, if i’ve sent you any asks or you have things drafted for me, please feel free to continue them! just tag the new blog in your reply.

episode four - git gone

❝ d’ya mind ? ❞

❝ best drinks have self defining names. you order a manhattan, god knows what you’re gonna get, but you order a gin and tonic, a jack and coke, it’s not just a name. it’s a command. ❞

❝ how long you’ve been working here for ? ❞

❝ ooh, that’s bad luck. ❞

❝ don’t do it. ❞

❝ i was waiting for you. ❞

❝ why’d you help me ? ❞

❝ you’re really not very good at this; i saw you coming a mile off. ❞

❝ are you trying to recruit me ? ❞

❝ you could be a world class thief. ❞

❝ you look like you could get anything you want just by asking for it. ❞

❝ what d’ya say, huh ? ❞

❝ hang on a minute. i’m sorry. ❞

❝ i owe you one. i feel beholden. ❞

❝ let me buy you a drink. ❞

❝ let’s go somewhere. ❞

❝ so you are a thief. ❞

❝ the weak spot, see ––– all you need is one. and it’s usually people’s attention. ❞

❝ show me. ❞

❝ oh, god. ten years, and [ … ] has NEVER looked at me like that. ❞

❝ there’s a lesson in there somewhere. ❞

❝ my grandma always had cats. she said that they could see ghosts when we can’t, and warn you of thieves. ❞

❝ do you ever worry about what will happen if you keep stealing ? ❞

❝ do you believe in the afterlife ? ❞

❝ all i know is there’s more than i know. ❞

❝ yeah, i think that might sound wiser than it is. ❞

❝ when you die, you rot. it’s a fixed system. physics doesn’t take sundays off. ❞

❝ my parents believed in everything. father, son, holy ghost, spirit filled and full of the light of god. they taught me all of it, chapter and verse. ❞

❝ i went to bed every night in a world full of magic where anything was possible. ❞

❝ it’s like everything that made the world anything more than what it is is just –– stories. like snake oil. but worse, because snakes are real. ❞

❝ i wanted to get that magic back so bad, but one day i just accepted the fact that i couldn’t, because life is just not that interesting. ❞

❝ don’t look at me like that. ❞

❝ the fun is just getting started. ❞

❝ i could teach you to fight. ❞

❝ hey, you want coffee ? ❞

❝ are we pregnant ? ❞

❝ what i’m about to say may sound irrational to you, but i have all sorts of rational reasons for saying it, and doing it. ❞

❝ say it, and we’ll talk about whether or not you should do it. ❞

❝ are we … discussing this, or are you telling ? ❞

❝ there’s some wiggle room. ❞

❝ are you unhappy ? because i’m happy, okay, you make me happy. ❞

❝ yes, i see that you’re happy. from this side of it. the wrong side of it. and i think maybe i resent not being happy. not resent you, just … resent. ❞

❝ do you still love me ? ❞

❝ we are like a history book. we’re established fact. we don’t change. ❞

❝ i represent FAILURE to you ? ❞

❝ i can take it. if you’re on the other side. i can make it if you can. can you wait for me ? ❞

❝ just glad that i could be here to help you, you know ? ❞

❝ hey, don’t stay here alone tonight. ❞

❝ why did you say that ? ❞

❝ come on, [ … ] , say what you mean. ❞

❝ last night was a one time thing. you were there. and thank you, but we’re not doing this. we did this. and now it’s done. ❞

❝ you don’t love him. not the way he loves you. ❞

❝ is that all this was ? just fun ? ❞

❝ are you saying no ? ❞

❝ i lived my life, good and bad. definitely not light as a feather. ❞

❝ in life, you believed in nothing, so you will go to nothing. you will be done. ❞

❝ there is nowhere else for you to be. ❞

❝ tears have fallen for you. ❞

❝ do i get a say in this ? ❞

❝ death is not a debate. ❞

❝ how many do you think have come before you, all with promises and threads and offers of gold, glory, love ? who are you to misguide me from my duty ? ❞

❝ you are but a man, not even one i should remember. ❞

❝ i’m gonna come in now. i’m gonna come in now, okay ? ❞

❝ is this a haunting ? are you haunting me ? ❞

❝ does [ … ] know ? ❞

❝ i’m a vulgar woman. anger and grief have just really made me vulgar. ❞

❝ god, you know, i should thank you. it’s so much easier grieving someone when you’re glad they’re dead. ❞

❝ oh, fuck your feelings. ❞

❝ everybody has feelings, everybody cares about what they feel. i don’t care about what you feel. i care about what you think. what do you think about what you did ? ❞

❝ what was your big lie, [ … ] ? ❞

❝ i love [ … ] … loved [ … ]. love [ … ]. i love [ … ]. (s)he’s the light of my life. ❞

❝ you, i remember. ❞

❝ there is nothing i can do to lighten your heavy heart. ❞

❝ your heavy heart sank you like a stone, right back where you last left off. ❞

❝ was it love ? ❞

❝ love will always have you at a disadvantage. ❞

❝ many is the man who would take any version of his lost love rather than leave his love lost. ❞

❛ I’m fine. — You don’t need to stay up for me. ❜

❛ I hope we haven’t been making too many demands of you. You look so tired. ❜

❛ I hold my hands over the ears of my heart, so that I will not hate you. ❜

❛ Isn’t it nice to disappear for a bit without even trying? ❜

❛ I’ve spent so much time here before the war swallowed me up. ❜

❛ There are as many kinds of love as there are hearts. ❜

❛ There’s something disturbing about recalling a warm memory and feeling utterly cold. ❜

❛ Be bad, but at least don’t be a liar. ❜

❛ War is not for winning, it is for surviving. ❜

❛ When you love someone, you love the whole person, just as they are, and not as you would like them to be. ❜

❛ If you need an answer to that, then you do not know me as well as you say. ❜

❛ A lot of people lack that gift: knowing when to fuck off. ❜

❛ Sometimes I think I won’t ever feel safe. ❜

❛ You look like a winter night. ❜

❛ I’d like to forget. Just for a bit. ❜

❛ There is nothing in you that needs redeeming. ❜

❛ Monsters seem to love you. ❜

❛ What is troubling you? Tell me and I will root it out. ❜

❛ It’s a very difficult era in which to be a person, just a real, actual person. ❜

❛ I should go. I have duties to attend to.  ❜

❛ You are going to break your promise. ❜

❛ I’m tired of dying. ❜

❛ It’s much better to do good in a way that no one knows anything about it. ❜

❛ If you love me as you say you do, make it so that I am at peace. ❜

❛ You will hear thunder and remember me. ❜

❛ I can’t abide a poor liar. ❜

❛ Someone ought to write a novel about me. ❜

❛ I am no one; I am nothing. ❜

❛ Men die. It’s practically what they’re for. ❜

I have heard the mermays singing, each to each.
