Don’t need to hold back? Who am I kidding? I’ve crossed swords with all kinds of people over the years, but you’re in a league of your own, lady. I never fought anybody like you before. And that’s fine by me!

SAMURAI CHAMPLOO #21 “Elegy of Entrapment (Verse 2)

This just means that no matter how hard we try to split up, it was always meant to turn out like this!

“I never noticed your eyes were this [colour].”

“Your heartbeat’s really loud.”

“You asleep?”

“I like this, being so close to you.”

“Your hair keeps falling into your eyes, do you know that? Here, lemme just—”

“You’re so, so, so pretty.”

“I just — I’m breathless, okay? Whenever I’m with you, it happens.”

“You make my heart beat so quick.”

“You always know how to make me smile.”

“You’ll always be safe with me.”

[Kisses the other on the cheek]

“Always.”

“I can’t imagine being anywhere but here with you.”

“All my choices lead me to you.”

“I’ll never give you up.”

“I sleep better if you’re around.”

“You snore in your sleep. But… it’s adorable, okay?”

“I like this. A quiet breakfast with you.”

“There’re billions of people on this planet, and I love you. How incredible is that?”

“I trust you.”

[Holds the other’s hand when they think the other won’t notice]

“You keep staring at me instead of watching the film. What’s up?”

“Let’s push all of these stuff away. I wanna dance here right now with you.”

“Are we really doing this? Are we really slow-dancing?”

“When you laugh like that, it just — you’re so beautiful, you know that?”

“No, sorry, you laughed. I … I never saw it before. It’s — pretty.”

“You haven’t laughed in a long time, and I guess I was staring ‘cause I forgot how that looked like.”

[Puts head on the other’s shoulder]

“I will never let you go.”

“You’re the best thing to have ever happened to me.”

“You wrote me a song?”

“You’ve got a fever. Of course I’m not going anywhere.”

[Suddenly feels around the bed to search for the other’s hand / body when they’re sleeping]

[Extends a hand when they see the other was searching for it while they’re sleeping]

“I just feel calmer. When I’m with you.”

“You’re not in bed. I came looking for you.”

“What are you doing up? Come to bed.”

“It’s weird. I never thought I could feel like this, but you showed up. Now, it’s like I don’t wanna go on knowing I might lose the feeling.”

“I don’t mind sharing the blankets with you.”

“You’re cold. Come here.”

“You always do that. You always warm me up.”

“Stay.”

“It’s getting crowded. Here, hold my hand.”

[Hugs for a very long time]

[Puts feet on the other’s lap]

“I’m so proud of you, you know that?”

why do you have to make things so fucking complicated?

you still don't get it, do you?

let's get lost.

can you teach it to me?

that look in your eyes is a pain in my ass. you know that, right?

i'm not going to lose you.

how many rounds do you got?

next time, i get to seduce the rich guy.

please don't make me go through you.

i need you to trust me.

you will never get what you want!

it's not a bad way to go.

it's such a nice car.

get in! they're coming!

i need to ask you for something incredible.

i'm smarter than you.

what are you doing here?

"difficult" should be a walk in the park for you.

i'm gonna miss being disreputable.

your line's not long enough!

the countdown is not helping.

we prefer to keep a low profile.

was there something more going on between you two?

you need to walk away.

did you jump?

it's good to see you, too.

well, then i misled you, or you made the wrong assumption.

let me just assure you, this won't hurt... enough.

now the world is at risk.

why won't you just die?

you'll have about five seconds.

they knew we were coming.

what are you going to do? spank me?

this is the CIA's mission.

kill everyone? that's your plan?

there's no reason to be sorry.

look at me. look at my life.

i find it best not to look.

i'll figure it out.

whatever you've heard, if it makes your skin crawl, it's probably true.

how did you get in the helicopter?

what's done is done when we say it's done.

a storm is coming.

my team had it under control.

we knew they were coming.

i couldn't face another life or death situation after that.

mission accomplished.

i think we lost enough agents for one night.

hope is not a strategy.

please don't make me laugh.

that's not who we are.

everything that happened... it taught me who i am.

so i'm jumping into an oven, essentially.

jesus, i thought you were dead.

we all have our secrets.

maybe we need to reconsider that.

you don't understand what you're involved in.

i'll figure it out.

you mind telling me why you broke me out?

this wasn't a rescue mission?

how good is your backup?

i'm exactly where i should be. and so are you.

this is a bad idea.

so what happens now?

you can fly a helicopter?

i've been ordered to take you back to washington.

may there be peace on earth.

i don't quite follow you.

how will the world finally end?

you must be new.

it's not like any mission is gonna be rougher than the last one, is it?

wait 'til you see the car.

i don't care in the least what people think or feel.

please tell me there's more to this plan.

i have arrived at the party.

the blood will be on your hands.

how close were we?

deep down we both knew that someday, somehow, something truly terrible was going to happen.

i can understand you're very upset.

you can thank them in person.

hey, how did you open your cell door?

waste not, want not.

why are you telling me this?

we have to evacuate these people!

there's no time!

you want to shake hands with the devil? that's fine with me. i just want to make sure you do it in hell.

could we get a cappuccino machine in here?
