BROOKLYN NINE-NINE 4.14 Serve & Protect

RACHEL GREEN in FRIENDS (1994 - 2004) 2.01 | The One with Ross's New Girlfriend

Sleep alluded him again. Scrubbing his hands over his face with a frustrated sigh, the lawyer completed yet another circle around the living room, stepping quietly so not to wake the one sleeping in his bed. Not that he could exactly tell with how his senses had been off after being on his third night without any rest.

“hey— is this some kinda before bed ritual you got goin’ on?”

jessmatt: a summary

In conclusion Matt Murdock has a crush on Jessica Jones. Thank you all for coming.

Matt in the precinct: “aww guys let’s go save the world together (from my ex-girlfriend who I’m still slightly in love with”

I rest my case.

• The label wants the album done in six weeks. We can barely be in the same room for six minutes. • You're high again. We go on in twenty minutes. • I heard the demo. You changed the lyrics we wrote together. • This band is falling apart and you're too stoned to notice. • You slept with [insert name]. After the forum show. Everyone knows. • I can't write with you anymore. Every song turns into a fight. • The tour manager found the coke in your guitar case. • You dedicated that song to someone else. On stage. In front of ten thousand people. • Your girlfriend showed up at soundcheck. The one you said you broke up with. • I'm leaving the band. After the European leg, I'm done. • We can't keep doing this—fighting all day and falling into bed together all night. • I saw you leave with [insert name] after the party. Don't insult me by lying about it. • Remember when we started this band in your garage? When did it get so complicated? • You're drinking straight whiskey at noon. We have a radio interview in an hour. • The new song is about me leaving, isn't it? • I can't tell if you hate me or if you're in love with me, and I think you can't either. • They offered me a solo contract. A real one. With Mercury Records. • You missed the bus. Again. The rest of us waited for three hours. • Stop looking at me like that when we're on stage. People are starting to talk. • I heard you in the hotel room next door. With someone who definitely wasn't me. • The vinyl's pressed. The album's done. And we barely spoke during the entire recording. • You want writing credit on a song you didn't even show up to record. • I'm not your muse anymore. Find someone else to bleed into your lyrics. • We sold out Madison Square Garden and you look absolutely miserable about it. • I rewrote the bridge. Without you. It's better now. • The groupies wait for you after every show. Like you're some kind of god. • I can't tell what's real between us and what's just good for the image anymore. • They want us to fake date for the publicity. For the album release. • You OD'd in Phoenix. They had to cancel three shows. Do you even care? • I'm sick of being the stable one while you get to be the tortured artist. • The documentary crew asked why we don't write together anymore. What did you tell them? • We have to duet on this track. For the single. Can you manage that? • You haven't looked at me since that night in Laurel Canyon. • The Grammys are next month. We'll have to walk the carpet together. Smile for the cameras. • I heard you through the walls last night. Crying. Playing the same chord progression over and over. • You're twenty minutes late to your own album listening party. • I kept the polaroid from Woodstock. The one where we actually looked happy. • They're calling us the next Fleetwood Mac. Guess they know a beautiful disaster when they see one. • You can have the master tapes. I just want out.

• You're bleeding through your shirt. Don't tell me you're fine. • How long have you been walking around like this? • I'm not going to hurt you. I just need to see how bad it is. • You should have told me the moment it happened. • Hold still. I mean it. Hold still. • This is going to sting. Bite down on something if you need to. • You've been hiding this for days, haven't you. • Who did this to you? I need you to tell me who did this. • Stop being brave for five minutes and let me help you. • I've seen worse. I've also seen men die from worse, so let me look at it. • I found the bandages in the trash. You want to explain that? • Don't you dare apologize for bleeding on me. • Your hands are cold. That's not a good sign. • I'm not angry. I'm terrified. There's a difference. • Come into the light. Let me see your face. • You should have stitches. I know you won't go. So sit down and let me do what I can. • You're white as a sheet and still trying to stand up straight. • I could hear you in the night. I didn't say anything. I'm saying something now. • Don't look at it if it makes it worse. Just look at me. • It's not weak to let someone see you hurt. • You came to me. Of all the places you could have gone, you came here.  • Lay back. You're not getting up until the color comes back to your face. • I'm not going to ask what happened. Not yet. First let me fix what I can. • You've been holding your left side since you walked in. Think I didn't notice? • This is going to leave a mark. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. • I've patched up a lot of people in my time. None of them scared me like you do right now. • You could have died out there. You could have died and I would have been the last person to know. • Sleep. I'll be right here when you wake up. I'm not going anywhere. • You're allowed to make a sound. Nobody's watching. • I need you to stay awake for me. Just a little longer. Talk to me. • You're lucky the cut wasn't deeper.  • Stop apologizing for needing help. Stop it right now. • I've seen what it looks like when someone's used to this. That's what scares me most about you. • Tell me your name. Tell me what day it is. Stay with me. • You're going to be alright. I promise you.  • You went back out there after this? With this? • Nobody takes care of you, do they? That ends tonight. • I've been gentle with you. I need you to be honest with me in return. • You're safe now. You're here, you're safe, and I've got you. Just breathe.
