⠀ ⠀❝ in every universe , oh what am ⠀⠀ i supposed to do without you ? ❞ ⠀⠀ㅡ quote bot, recited by yume.⠀ ⠀

NO! this has to stop now, this thing where you think you've been my friend, and don't even hear how you condescend the way you've always done!

you were prepared to pay any cost, he reminded himself. even her trust. even her respect. even her love. he felt sick.

pull the plug, make it painless. i don't want a violent end.

why does anyone commit acts others deem unspeakable? for love.

i will not be like a bird bred in a cage, i thought, too dull to fly even when the door stands open. i stepped into those woods and my life began.

i waited for someone to remark on my absence, but no one did, for no one had noticed. why would they? i was nothing, a stone.

yet because I knew nothing, nothing was beneath me.

there is no prize to perfection, only a end to pursuit.

we build our own prisons. bars forged of oaths, codes, commitments. walls of self-doubt and accepted limitation. we inhabit these cells, these identities, and call them 'us.'

he's gonna say it's love, but you never called it what it was.

i need to tell you the truth. i don't want to run the shop. i know it was your dream, but it's not mine. i'm sorry. i'm a bad daughter. / the shop was never the dream. you were the dream. you were always the dream.

what was i truly? In the end, i could not bear to know.

if I were valuable to anyone, i would not be allowed to live alone.

i don't wanna talk down on your lover, i don't wanna be a homewrecker. i just know i can be better, be better, be better.

compassion. hate. two sides of the same coin. inexplicably bound. that which inspires us to our greatest good, is also the cause of our greatest evil.

a hero's fate is never happy. it is never anything, but tragic.

don't you see that everything is on the line? so i'm sorry, but you have to choose a side.

let's go, make your move. peace or war, it's up to you.

power, real power, doesn't come to those who were born strongest, or fastest, or smartest. no it comes to those who will do anything to achieve it.

you can aim for my heart, go for blood, but you would still miss me in your bones.
