“It’s nothing compared to happiness.â€�
I snorted through gritted teeth. “What happiness?�
“E³æ²¹³¦³Ù±ô²â.â€�
“Reality interrupts—� Jaw clenching, my nostrils flared as I felt a gush of blood flow.
A whisper. “Life.� His blink was slow. “The mother of all bitches.�
“And the beauty?�
“Its absence is duly noted.�
“Only to be found by those later.�
Another swipe of my cheeks. “Once they’ve suffered to the point they scream for death.�
“Full circle.�
His hand found mine in a gentle hold. “Pain needs to be felt.”

“I listen to his heartbeat. Hear him breathe. As though becomes motion and motion becomes all that lies between him and his end. As the black Is burning blue with the light of tiny funeral pyres. As his missiles and bullets take away his enemy. All they were and will ever be. I can taste it in his whispers. See it in the tiny photograph he has taped to his console. All he thinks of amid this loveless dance. All he cares about here on the edge of forever, is her. He does not want to die. Not because he is afraid. Simply because of he cannot bear the thought of leaving her behind. And there, in that tiny moment, I envy him.”
― Amie Kaufman, Illuminae

“His lips slowly twitched. “As a gentleman, I think you should sleep off the drugs in your system.â€� Again, his wide, full lips curved wickedly. “Unless you plan to move your hand lower, then I might forget I’m acting the gentleman because, really, I’m not all that gentlemanly.”
― Scarlett Dawn, King Cave

“I reached for the switch on my desk lamp and flashed HELLO.
The lights switched off in Cassidy's bedroom, and her flashlight flicked on.
SORRY.
"She's sorry," I told Cooper, because he didn't understand Morse code.
He lifted his head as if to say But you already knew that, old sport.
Her flashlight flickered again.
FORGIVE ME.
This time, I didn't hesitate.
ALWAYS, I replied.”
― Robyn Schneider, The Beginning of Everything

“But I know now that isn’t true; history is filled with fictional people. And even the epigraph Fitzgerald placed at the beginning of The Great Gatsby is by a writer who doesn’t exist. We have all been fooled into believing in people who are entirely imaginary—made-up prisoners in a hypothetical panopticon. But the point isn’t whether or not you believe in imaginary people; it’s whether or not you want to.”
― Robyn Schneider, The Beginning of Everything

“The truth was, pain didn’t matter, not in here. It came, it went, it came again. That was all. Nothing he did changed that fact.

“Did you kill that man?'

Smoothing out the skirts of the gown, I crossed my ankles. 'I believe he slipped and fell upon my blade.'

'Was it his throat that fell upon your blade?'

'Odd, right?'

'Odd, indeed.' Ezra tilted her head to the side as she stared blankly at me. 'That happens quite often around you.'

'Unfortunately,' I arched a brow at my stepsister. 'Men with careless fists should be more mindful of where they step.'

A faint smile appeared on Ezra's face. 'You know, you do frighten me a little.'

I turned to the carriage window as we rolled down the sunny street. 'I know.”
