our lady of the divine right hook

we need visuals and a status.

what sort of retrieval are we talking about?

we are under attack.

i'm looking at the thing now. or what's left of it.

you're still on a need-to-know basis.

i'm afraid that's classified.

what's that noise?

i need you to do exactly as i say.

you need an antidote. you've been exposed to a nerve agent.

what exactly am i looking for?

have a little rest and then get to somewhere safe. you've done great.

you just get out of the camp and sit tight.

i'll follow. see what i can do.

remember who you're up against.

now you start to worry about me.

what's the point, then? they're all going to die anyway.

i think some of the others are still alive.

you need to get out of the blast zone.

stand down. that's an order.

listen carefully. you have a less than one percent chance of success.

no time to hesitate. those people need my help.

that's where i'll find the captives.

hey, listen. we don't have much time, and we need to get you out of here.

what about the others? we can't leave without them.

you'll know when you see it.

i don't know how to drive this thing!

this should keep them busy.

you could have saved them if you had spoken up.

your friends died protecting nothing. what a waste.

listen. i already freed your friends. we don't have much time.

these guys mean business.

all right. time to bring the house down.

that should stir things up a bit.

what are you doing? come on! run!

light the place up! do not let them escape!

follow me this way. there's a way out.

what is this now? you want to blow us up?

i'm not MI6.

do you have an appointment?

you sound familiar.

gotta say you're healing fast.

so... i'm in trouble.

can i grab you for a second?

now let's not get carried away, [name].

you're really enjoying this, aren't you?

everything you need to know will be explained to you shortly.

i must say you're all taking this code of secrecy seriously.

you're very talkative, aren't you?

i do enjoy a quiet office. i'm sure we can limit the small talk.

i was unaware i was under MI6 command and i just chose not to take your advice.

i believe it's more a case of authority having issues with me.

look, i know where this is going.

do you mind telling me why i'm here?

i want to make you a spy.

i want you to join my training program.

it's unlikely you'll pass the test.

when do i start?

you're dismissed.

you have some catching up to do.

better get you up to speed.

judging from your profile i'm sure you'll get along splendidly.

your flight's waiting for you, so you'd better get a move on.

you're not here for sightseeing.

to do this, you need skill, discipline, and above all, dedication.

pure dumb luck will only get you so far.

i like what you've done with the place.

you really have a knack for stating the obvious.

i expect the list of things you don't know is quite extensive.

would you do the honors?

okay, show me what you've got.

i do love a challenge.

are you haven's type?

dialogue prompts from the first season of prime's off-campus.

you are intolerable.

do not give me the silent treatment.

nobody is expecting you to be _____.

take a shower. you smell like shit.

it'll come back to you. like riding a bike.

did anyone ever tell you that eavesdropping is rude?

has anyone ever told you your references are dated?

i'll pick out your outfit, you just do your makeup.

i plead the fifth.

i am always telling you to wear your jacket. you never do.

how do you suddenly know my name?

you can't just kiss me out of the blue.

you blush whenever i come near you.

get over yourself. i don't blush.

my single ass needs another drink.

this is the part where i tell you all the things i want to do to you when we're alone.

you're just giving me the bed because you feel bad for me.

i wouldn't know who i am without it.

you centered me.

you're overthinking. get out of your head.

you can put me down now. we all know how much you can bench.

i don't need your pity. i don't need you to be my therapist.

what if i'm broken?

if you're going to chase an impossible dream, chase one that actually matters.

this party's kind of dead, right?

are you driving, or shall i?

i think people can change, if they want to.

if i go, will you come with me?

you can't let the bad memories erase the good ones.

do you never have a shirt on?

people who care about you will understand. if they don't, they're not your people.

you said this wasn't a date. it feels like a date.

god, it's so hot when someone knows what they want.

this is a party. parties are supposed to be fun.

stop fucking with my head.

i'm a girl. i have to think about what everybody else is feeling before i can figure out what i'm feeling.

don't think. tell me what you want.

you scare the shit out of them, you know.

look how hard they're trying to please you.

you really can't be alone, can you?

can we hit dairy queen on the way home?

i can't take on anyone else's stress today. i'm emotionally raw. i'm a shell of a woman.

i don't know what your problem is, but i suggest you do whatever it takes to work it out.

we have to cling to the people who see us and smile.

just let me know you're okay.

we're on the same team. don't you get that?

don't you want to know what being single and slutty has to offer you?

let's start with the small stuff and work our way up, okay?

you didn't do anything wrong.

it has recently come to my attention that i'm a serial monogamist.

i'm actually so proud, i could cry.

what kind of _____ do you want to be?

have fun. do stuff just 'cause you want to.

i told you to stop opening my mail.

who says print media is dead?

i don't want you to look at me differently, or treat me differently.

i always knew. i just thought you'd tell me when you were ready.

you're not just one thing. you're everything.

the words will come when they come.

you reminded me of who i used to be.

you could be anywhere, doing anything, but you're not. you're here.

hey, look at me. i got you. i got you, okay?

i don't want to be that guy.

you're not as dumb as you look.

stop being chicken shit and tell _____ how you feel.

i know i said i was dropping out, but can i maybe drop back in?

i couldn't miss your big moment, could i?

are you haven's type?

armand dips his head, breathing a chuckle at her response. he can't imagine that most museums have protocol in place for hauntings. no, superstition is far less fashionable in the modern day, despite hauntings being no less frequent. it's all willful ignorance, the same ignorance that leaves mortals dumbfounded when confronted with his fangs. in life, he'd felt he stood too close to the veil between life and death. while he'd been taught of jinn, he'd come to believe that human souls could also linger. there was never any other explanation for the things he saw.

being dead himself, there's little he wouldn't believe in the possibility of ( but spirits feel as real as he is ).

❝ how many new sets of teeth have you gone through? ❞ a joke, but one that comes with an understanding that what she says is true. the vampire's eyes follow hers to the painting, judging its age through style. portraiture always raises questions about who the person was and why the artist chose them. in some ways, he thinks they can be more revealing about their subject matter than photographs. armand lingers on the eyes of the subject as she speaks, narrowing his own in curiosity as he listens.

❝ the energy of the painter, a sliver of soul captured from the subject — i'm enjoying it, yes. ❞

She's managed to get by unscathed so far, but she can't say the same for other staff members. "One of the guys from the Acquisitions team called a pair of porcelain dolls 'ugly' and something went wrong with his car every day for a whole week." Maybe he had just been bad at remembering to get his oil changed and tires rotated; she won't rule it out entirely, but the timing of the incidents definitely raised a few eyebrows.

The direction of the conversation sparks a conspiratorial glint in her eye, and she feels this guest will at least humor her current furtive streak if not participate in complement.

are you haven's type?

i don’t think i could ever get over you.

standing in front of you right now, it’s torture, not being able to kiss you. 

i love you. even though that freaks the fuck out of me to say it.

life keeps going. you can’t just give up.

i don’t want you to need me. i want you to want me.

we’re too similar. we would drive each other crazy.

i appreciate that secrecy is your love language.

i thought we could be friends. i want to be friends. 

you’d do anything for everyone to like you.

you always have been a shitty liar.

maybe no contact is the only way this works.

giving you shit is just like an old reflex. 

i wanna prove to everyone that i’m not a fuck up.

i’m doing this with or without you. with you would be easier.

you’re the one in my fucking head.

you will never be alone again.

i know you fought for every fucking thing you ever got in your life.

sooner or later, you’re gonna have to face up to what you’ve done.

you don’t know? you could fill a book with the shit you don’t know.

anything and everything you do is okay.

i know that you’re lonely.

i love you, and i don’t wanna love you, because i’ll never fucking trust you again.

i’m the last person who thinks they’re a hero. i fucking hate myself half the time.

if i wasn’t so tired, i’d say something sexual. shows how tired i am.

i feel like i’m standing on the edge of a cliff.

we keep fighting till we don’t have to anymore.

i have stood by you at every single turn.

does it help somehow to bitch about it?

let’s not pretend i’m the one who ended things.

i made my choices. so did you.

we stuck together because we had to.

that’s a long ass time to be with somebody and then walk away.

i thought someone was coming to murder me. this is worse.

i’m doing a fucking thing here.

just revising my suspect list. 

you shouldn’t be afraid of the bad parts of you.

i’m pretty sure no one gives a shit about your needs right now.

we’re high functioning compared to them. at least we’re communicating.

when you changed your mind about us, that broke me. 

you’re gonna make mistakes sometimes. it’s just part of being alive.

do you think i’m a bad mom?

murder makes you extra sweaty.

you weren’t the only smart one. you just like to think you were.

i know you guys are… whatevering.

you know i don’t deserve your friendship, right? i just hurt people. 

it has to mean something, right? that we keep coming back to each other, that it’s never really over?

time’s a motherfucker.

so, why do you suddenly want me?

when i look at you, i don’t see your mistakes.

you think they care about you? you don’t matter. to anyone.

i don’t want to be a joke anymore.

i never not wanted you.

i guess cleaning up our mess makes for good foreplay.

you never move on from something like this. it just changes you. then you adapt.

i did not start out a bad person.

just ‘cause i’m scared doesn’t mean it’s going away. gotta accept it.

when i think about the specifics too much, i just get sad. time doesn’t wait. 

what’s the one thing you want out of your life?

we always come back around, you and me.

do you forgive me? for being so stubborn? 

i spent so much time trying not to be who i was, i don’t even know who i am.

i like how i feel when i’m with you. 

i’m done talking for tonight.

all i ever wanted from you was a fucking hug.

you’re not okay. you’re stubborn.

just because you say something to a person doesn’t mean you necessarily mean it.

i didn’t learn my lesson. we were good. you just don’t want good.

did you really not see that coming? because i sure did.

i missed you. i’ve missed you for months.

come on. bickering is what we do. it’s fun.

you’re something else. when you believe in something, nothing’s gonna change your mind.

i know what you’re doing. you’re acting like a dick so no one can see how badly you’re hurting.

i don’t think you’re crazy. you’ve been through a lot. that’s okay with me.

there’s been enough death. i’m fucking sick of it. aren’t you?

i forgot about you, and i hate myself for that.

i needed you, and you just weren’t there. you left me.

you always could read my mind.

it’s gonna eat you up to keep this all inside.

there’s only you. there’s only ever been you.

my chest physically hurts to not be able to tell her i’m in love with her.

you never let anyone see you hurting.

sometimes i think you’re a little too good at being fine.

you win. this. whatever we’re doing.

now you’re someone i miss when you’re not around.

i thought that we loved each other. 

you have to say what you want. it’s your move.

you’re pretty hard to resist.

you make people feel okay just by showing up.

don’t let the fact that you’re a terrible person keep you up tonight.

all that is happening is that you are not in control, and you’re not used to it.

i’m intimidated as fuck by you.
