CONTENT WARNING FOR VIOLENCE AND SWEARING.
“I can fucking taste how close we are.”
“Don’t need me for that. Just slit my damn throat already.”
“You still holding out for an apology?”
“No, I realize _____ was just another rando bit player in whatever “hero’s journey” you think you’ve been on.”
“But when this is over, you’ll finally realize that you’re not even the star of your own story.”
“You know what? Fuck it. _____, over the past several months, I must admit that I have developed certain feelings for you. Have you not for me?”
“But you must know that the two of us have no future. So we may as well enjoy the present.”
“War can’t be ended any more than the rain. All we can do is help each other stay dry.”
“It’s a real gift for young people to be able to see the face of someone they’ve just hurt. In that moment, you learn whether or not you have what it takes to be a killer.”
“When I look at you, it reminds me like… you people have souls, too.”
“Why the hell haven’t you told anyone about this before?!”
“Anyone can kill you, but it takes someone you know to really hurt you. It takes someone you love to break your heart.”
“It was us, _____. I just tried to listen to your body.”
“God, are we making a horrible mistake?”
“Why, for the love of fuck?”
“_____ is a lot of things, but he’s/she’s/they’re not evil.”
“I’m staying here because… because the universe is complicated, and I don’t own you any explanation more than that. Do you understand?”
“Most of the time, we don’t even realize we’ve lived through something worth commemorating until long after it’s already ended.”
“Anyway, let’s have a proper farewell when the time comes?”
“It wasn’t a dream, it was a memory.”
“Do you have any idea how unseemly it is? To ask something like that?”
“You must forgive me, _____. I swear, I… I would never harm you.”
“Some people hate waiting, but not me. Without anticipation, life can be comfortable, but it’ll never be thrilling. Instant gratification is for boring assholes.”
“Help! Why won’t somebody help me?!”
“Anticipation and dread aren’t opposites, just different versions of the same game.”
“Every violent action, no matter how seemingly insignificant, sends ripples through the cosmos, inevitably causing more of the same.”
“Putting new ideas into another person’s head is an aggressive act, and aggressive acts have consequences.”
“This is your fault how exactly?”
“Every time I start to forget what a horrible person you are, you find a new way to become even shittier.”
“I’ll take care of that job, too… but I ain’t the business-before-pleasure type.”
“If you kill me now, I give you my word you’ll never get out of here alive.”
“I understand that you’re hurt, truly I do. But if… if you could find some way to spare my life… I can see to it that no one will ever hurt either of us again.”
“I’ll fill you in after you get us as far from here as fucking possible.”
“Of… of course. Find it in your heart to forgive me for all I’ve done, and I… I can show you… show you anything you…”
“I fucking… dare you. Kill me. Kill me.”
“And I’ll surrender without a fight. As long as you don’t hurt him/her/them.”
