The choice was death or hurting Adam, which wasn’t much of a choice at all.

The most heart wrenching lines from the Infernal Devices trilogy.

Atque in pepetuum, frater, ave atque vale,” he whispered. The words of the poem had never seemed so fitting: Forever and ever, my brother, hail and farewell.

You hear that, James Carstairs? We are bound, you and I, over the divide of death, down through whatever generations may come. Forever.

If there is a life after this one", he said, "let me meet you in it, James Carstairs.

I take your hand, brother, so that you may go in peace.

No one can say that death found in me a willing comrade, or that I went easily.

And now I need you to do for me what I cannot do for myself. For you to be my eyes when I do not have them. For you to be my hands when I cannot use my own. For you to be my heart when mine is done beating.

There is more to living than not dying.

The Foxhole Court

[booksahoyreader]

You know, I get it. Being raised as a superstar must be really, really difficult for you. Always a commodity, never a human being, not a single person in your family thinking you’re worth a damn off the court— yeah, sounds rough. Kevin and I talk about your intricate and endless daddy issues all the time. I know it’s not entirely your fault that you are mentally unbalanced and infected with these delusions of grandeur, and I know you’re physically incapable of holding a decent conversation with anyone like every other normal human being can, but I don’t think any of us should have to put up with this much of your bullshit. Pity only gets you so many concessions, and you used yours up about six insults ago. So please, please, just shut the fuck up and leave us alone.

His feelings for Adam were an oil spill; he’d let them overflow and now there wasn’t a damn place in the ocean that wouldn’t catch fire if he dropped a match. ... The ocean burned.

Adam smiled cheerily. Ronan would start wars and burn cities for that true smile, elastic and amiable.

Neil didn’t know if this break in routine was grudging trust or determination to not let Neil out of sight again. Neil didn’t care right now, so long as Andrew stayed.

Let Riko be King, most coveted, most protected. He’ll sacrifice every piece he has to protect his throne. Whatever. Me? I’m going to be the deadliest piece on the board. Queen.

Kevin Day, The Kings Men

Andrew kissed him like this was a fight with their lives on the line, like his world stopped and started with Neil’s mouth.
