🪶 — #ARCANE: prompts based on the hit netflix series

When did you get so comfortable living in someone else’s shadow?

When people look up to you, you don’t get to be selfish.

We’ve all had bad days. But we learn. And we stick together.

You’re stronger than you think. And one day… This city’s gonna respect us.

We look out for each other. It’s the way it’s always been. This will blow over. We just need to stand together.

There’s a monster inside all of us.

My dad says you’re a misfit, and that we can’t be friends anymore.

When you’re going to change the world, don’t ask for permission.

You’ve got a good heart. Don’t ever lose it. No matter how the world tries to break you.

I recognize that any worthwhile venture involves risk.

You’re all I have left. I can’t lose you

I’m a misfit too, I suppose.

It’s okay. We’ll show them. We will show them all.

Betrayal, that pain that feels like it’ll eat you from the inside out, can either break you or forge you into something greater.

Nothing feels impossible when I’m with you.

We can’t change what fate has in store for us, but we don’t have to face it alone.

Love and legacy are the sacrifices we make for progress.

There is always a choice.

He fancies himself a fox among the wolves. But mark me, child, if you want to last in this world, you must learn to be both the fox and the wolf.

I will give you the world, child, if you prove you can take it.

A wolf has no mercy.

Sometimes death is a mercy.

You’ve always been a part of this. You just never had to look it in the eye.

It’s not enough to give people what they need to surive, you have to give them what they need to live

I would set the world ablaze to protect our family.

Is there anything so undoing as a daughter?

The only thing that kept me going was the thought of getting back to you.

 I thought maybe you could love me like you used to. Even though I’m… different. But you changed too. So… Here’s to the new us.

Wrath must be met with wrath.

Why is peace always the justification for violence?

In my experience, only guilty men answer accusations with silence.

In my experience, no one in power is innocent.

No beast is more savage than a man.

Greatest thing we can do in life is find the power to forgive.
