↬ THE LANGUAGE OF THORNS, midnight tales and dangerous magic. ( 2017 ) by leigh bardugo.
sentences taken from or inspired by the collection’s dialogue & narration.
+ feel free to change pronouns !
i. AYAMA AND THE THORN WOOD.
‘ love speaks in flowers. truth requires thorns. ’
‘ we all know the story of how the queen becomes a queen. ’
‘ we should leave this place. ’
‘ no doubt it will come and devour us all. ’
‘ the beast will laugh you right out of the wild lands. ’
‘ you know how the stories go. interesting things happen only to pretty girls. ’
‘ is the wood much worse than a garden overgrown with pricklers ? ’
‘ stupid girl ! do you wish to become a monster ? ’
‘ strike me. cleave me in two. ’
‘ you’re as thorny as the wood. ’
‘ there is but one rule in my wood. speak truth. ’
‘ perhaps you might show mercy freely. ’
‘ just eat a bit of the sun to fill the sky, and you will feel empty no longer. ’
‘ what nonsense ! of course that’s not how the story ends. ’
‘ some people are born with a piece of night inside, and that hollow place can never be filled. ’
‘ what do i care for winter ? no season touches this wood. ’
‘ you know the only bargain i will make. ’
‘ sometimes the unseen is not to be feared and those that are meant to love us most are not always the ones that do. ’
‘ bad fates do not always follow those that deserve them. ’
‘ no prince is worth your life. ’
‘ are you so eager to be eaten ? ’
‘ they have told me to return with your heart. ’
‘ you think to love a monster ? ’
‘ a man like you is owed no words. ’
ii. THE TOO CLEVER FOX.
‘ you are doomed to a miserable life. ’
‘ better to be hungry now than to be sorry later. ’
‘ what will everyone say when they see such a face ? ’
‘ we have not gone so soft as that. ’
‘ you think that we will let you live on foolish promises ? ’
‘ you have bested me. that much is clear. ’
‘ will you not free me ? ’
‘ you will have a fine time of it, i can tell you. ’
‘ i can bear ugliness. i find the one thing i cannot live with is death. ’
‘ if you will only cease your talking, i will gladly go. ’
‘ where he went, he bled the woods dry. ’
‘ what’s a bit more blood ? ’
‘ you should leave this place. you are not safe here. ’
‘ with such big eyes, i think you see too much. ’
‘ will you not tell me what troubles you ? ’
‘ why do you stay with him ? you’re pretty enough to catch a husband. ’
‘ just because you escape one trap, doesn’t mean you will escape the next. ’
‘ first i must find my courage. ’
‘ few can resist the sight of a pretty girl crying. ’
‘ the trap is loneliness, and no one escapes it. not even me. ’
‘ in the wood, even songbirds must be survivors. ’
iii. THE WITCH OF DUVA.
‘ there was a time when the wood ate girls. ’
‘ be back before dark. the trees are hungry tonight. ’
‘ who can say what shapes an appetite ? ’
‘ this is my home, you can’t just send me away. ’
‘ don’t be foolish. there’s plenty of light. ’
‘ well then, come help me stir the pot. ’
‘ i will warn you just this once. go. ’
‘ you cannot come and go from this place like you’re fetching water from a well. ’
‘ hope made me stubborn. ’
‘ stay there and keep quiet. i don’t need rumors that i’ve been taking girls. ’
‘ i will not have you bring a monster to my door. ’
‘ you know that you are welcome to remain here with me. ’
‘ i will follow her. i will peck out her eyes. ’
‘ believe me. say you believe me. ’
‘ dark things have a way of slipping through narrow spaces. ’
iv. LITTLE KNIFE.
‘ it is dangerous to travel the northern road with a troubled heart. ’
‘ if you are lost in your own thoughts, you may find yourself stepping off the path and into the dark woods. ’
‘ she was beautiful from the moment of her birth. ’
‘ why must i be the one to hide ? ’
‘ do you think i am so foolish or so cruel ? ’
‘ water only wants direction. it wants to be told what to do. ’
‘ always you have done my bidding, but what good are you to me now ? ’
‘ soon i will be very rich, but will i have a good man ? ’
‘ that is a question for the river. ’
‘ your tongue is not fit for my true name. ’
‘ will you come with me, and be bride to nothing but the shore ? ’
‘ she was terrifying in her beauty, bright like a devouring star. ’
‘ remember that to use a thing is not to own it. ’
‘ should you ever take a bride, listen closely to her questions. ’
v. THE SOLDIER PRINCE.
‘ this is the problem with even lesser demons. they come to your door in velvet coats and polished shoes. ’
‘ you will find great love and more gold than you could wish for. ’
‘ he’s a charming fellow, but most unusual, and peculiarities seem to follow him. ’
’ it seemed harmless at the time. ’
‘ he needed a girl, still malleable, one that he could make admire him. ’
‘ this is pleasant. this is enough. ’
‘ are you my soldier ? are you my prince ? ’
‘ i have not come to fight, only to talk. ’
‘ wanting is why people get up in the morning. it gives them something to dream of at night. ’
‘ i am perfectly real. ’
‘ she loves you, though, and that will make it harder. ’
‘ best not to ask. i think the answer would please no one. ’
‘ we can stay forever in the land of dreams. ’
‘ kiss me. take me from this place. ’
‘ i sent you to die a hundred times. ’
‘ i eat the wonder in their eyes. ’
‘ you were an idea in my head. you were nothing, and to nothing you will return when i think of you no more. ’
‘ you wanted only that i might live. you would sacrifice your own life to make it so. ’
‘ are you my darling ? are you mine ? ’
vi. WHEN WATER SANG FIRE.
‘ you wish to strike a bargain. ’
‘ make me someone new. ’
‘ this is the problem with making a thing forbidden. it does nothing but build an ache in the heart. ’
‘ easy magic is pretty. great magic requires that you trouble the waters. ’
‘ no one expects me to accomplish anything. ’
‘ i can smell your ambition like blood in the water.’
‘ i know that you should keep it like a secret, not shout it like a curse. ’
‘ yes. i can imagine it all. ’
‘ you are worth more than that. you should not have to earn him. ’
‘ hope rises like water trapped beneath a dam, higher and higher, in increments that mean nothing until you face the flood. ’
‘ there is no pain like the pain of transformation. ’
‘ take your pleasures as you will. ’
‘ come, and i’ll tell you all you wish to know. ’
‘ he made me dream of things i cannot have. ’
‘ i do not care for dancing. ’
‘ look into the mirror, and try to deny it. ’
‘ you have never been like the others, and you never will be. ’
‘ we were not made to please princes. ’
‘ i am not quite mortal either, and i have many lives to live. ’
‘ i wouldn’t care if you were part human or part frog. ’
‘ my voice is not enough. ’
‘ you know i was never strong. ’

maybe i will talk to the sea she’s as angry and as gentle as me
rune got me talking about galadriel and memory, and how it is so intrinsically tied to loss, for her, and i’m fine.
he reaches over and he touches you, like a prayer for which no words exist, and you feel your heart taking root in your body, like you’ve discovered something you don’t even have a name for.
Richard Siken, excerpt of You Are Jeff (via antigonick)
Oh child of my heart, born of a never-ending dream You were cradled in light, bathed in an ever-flowing stream

@saurn sent : “ don't sit with your back to any doors. ”
such words could perhaps be a friendly warning, were they said by any other. but annatar has set her ill at ease since their first introduction, this lord of gifts with a honeyed tongue. all of her life, galadriel has seen far into the hearts of others — only with this stranger, she can see little, as if a shroud lay about his soul. and so she finds herself searching every word, every action for some glimmer of his true intent.
they have never before been truly alone, and this rings with a heavy air of menace. sharp eyes turn to the lord, her frame taut as a bowstring. she does not fear annatar — but she does not understand him. and that, is a position in which she is unused to finding herself.
“ if one did not know better, they would find such a statement alarming. ”
@isilmerie sent : chubby hands rest on her mother’s face, smushing her cheeks. usually celebrían does this in play, but right now she has the most earnest look on her little face. “ amya, ” she demands, “ what are you? ”
long fingers come to rest over small hands, and her laughter is light, musical, as her young daughter presses determinedly against sharp cheekbones. such seriousness is not uncharacteristic of celebrían, but rarely is it turned towards herself in such a puzzling display. the question, so simple and yet profound for one so young, only serves to heighten her curiosity.
“ what am i? ” galadriel cannot keep the fond amusement from her voice. “ whatever do you mean, hónairë? ”
@isilmerie sent : “ the day hums sweetly when you have enough bees working for you. ” / specifically from baby brí
sunlight glints silver across the surface of the pond, warming the early afternoon air. they will almost certainly make their way to the water, but for now, galadriel’s fingers are occupied with the star-like silver of celebrían’s hair, twisting small wildflowers into the bright tresses with practiced ease. celebrían’s delight over the pale blue petals had been endearing, and their color shows nicely among the intricate braiding she now weaves.
the fond smile she wears only spreads at the girl’s words, her answer marked by light laughter. “ it does, does it? i suppose they have done quite wonderful work, judging by all of these blooms you have found. ”
@elensila sent : “ in my defence, i have none. ” / from aredhel
lips curve into the ghost of a smirk, bright eyes playful as she turns towards her cousin. artanis may play at being stern, but she is rarely successful, where írissë is concerned. “ you rarely do, rissa. dare i ask what antics you’ve been up to, while i was away? ” she has not heard anairë come running — yet. which implies that she hasn’t missed too much excitement.
She’s the only one who left

galadriel has long since given up the pretense of reading — the book held between pale hands all but forgotten as her mind races, contingencies creating a tangled web within her mind’s eye. the more time passes, the more sure she is becoming of this plan of hers, but the weight in her chest seems to grow as well. she fears what it may cost her, but she equally dreads the possible cost of her inaction. her daughter must be kept out of harm’s way, at any cost.
a shuffle brings her attention to the doorway, and irissë is offered a weak smile. her cousin is a welcome sight, one that always serves as a balm to her aching heart, but the question she must ask sets her ill at ease. convincing irissë... is not something that she expects to accomplish easily.
“ your hunt, i trust it went well? ” she rises to meet the other woman, fingers idly brushing a stray leaf from her cloak — habit, she has always cared more for her appearance than irissë herself. a hand in hers leads her cousin to her seat by the fire, craving closeness even as she shuns the cold.
“ rissa. ” a breath. she steadies herself, resolve settling into the set of her shoulders. “ there is... something that i wish to ask of you. ” please. just this once, let me protect you. i can’t lose you as well.
@elensila
galadriel and aredhel considering each other to be their sister is just so important to me.
