’ Why are you all wet? ‘
Shivering with the fall’s evening breeze flowing past his dripping wet clothes, Lovino’s scowl only grew deeper. “Oh, I don’t know.” He spat, “Probably because your dog decided it was a great day to shake himself dry right next to me!”
◆ —— LILO & STITCH QUOTES STARTER PROMPTS.
’ Why are you all wet? ‘
’ Aloha! ’
’ You’re vile. You’re foul. You’re flawed. '
’ Ohana means family. Family means no one gets left behind or forgotten. ’
’ If you want to leave, you can. I’ll remember you, though. ’
’ I remember everyone that leaves. ’
’ You! You’re the cause of all this. ’
’ This is my family. I found it all on my own. Is little, and broken, but still good. Ya. Still good. ’
’ Oh, good! My dog found the chainsaw. ’
’ No more caffeine for you. ’
’ Did you lose your job because of me? '
’ The managers a vampire. He wanted me to join his legion of the undead. ’
’ Trust me, this isn’t gonna end well. ’
’ I’m sorry I bit you. And pulled your hair. And punched you in the face. ’
’ GIve us a sign you understand any of this. ’
’ Show us that there is something inside you that is good. ’
’ I didn’t teach him that. ’
’ Come on, what’s the big deal? ’
’ Leave my mother out of this. ’
’ You are such a pain. ’
’ Then why don’t you sell me and buy me a rabbit instead? ’
’ I hate it when you use Ohana against me. ’
’ I’m lost. ’
’ Don’t interact with her. ’
’ Oh, we can’t do that. Uh-uh. That would be a misuse of resources. ’
’ Why do you act so weird? ’
’ You look familiar. ’
’ We’re a broken family, aren’t we? ’
’ I shouldn’t have yelled at you. ’
’ You are built to destroy. You can never belong. ’
’ We need something that can defend itself. Something that won’t die. ’
’ I hear you cry at night. ’
’ Do you dream about them? ’
’ You came back. ’
’ Nobody gets left behind. ’
’ I need someone to be my friend. Someone who won’t run away. '
’ His destructive programming is taking effect. ’
’ Did you ever kill anyone? ’
’ Are you.. happy? ’
’ I am the one they call when things go wrong and things have, indeed, gone wrong. ’
’ Our family’s little now, and we don’t have many toys. ’
‘ If you want, you could be a part of our family. ’
’ We’d raise you to be good. ’
’ She likes your butt and fancy hair. ’
’ I read her diary. ’
’ Not guilty! My experiments are only theoretical, and completely within legal boundaries. ’
’ He was designed to be a monster, but now he has nothing to destroy. ’
’ I never gave him a greater purpose. ’
’ What must it be like to have nothing, not even memories to look back on in the middle of the night? ’
’ If you promise not to fight anymore, I promise not to yell at you, except on special occasions. ’
’ Stupid head. ’
’ Did you catch fire again? ’
’ This is your badness level. It’s unusually high for someone your size. We have to fix that. ’
’ Don’t leave me, okay? ’
’ Do you want to be taken away? ’
’ You’re just jealous 'cause I’m pretty! ’
’ My friends need to be punished. ’
’ Heard you lost your job. ’
’ Thus far you have been adrift in the sheltered harbor of my patience. '
‘ After all you’ve put me through, you expect me to help you just like that? ’
’ He’s very persuasive. '
’ I know you had something to do with this. ’
’ Oh, good! I was hoping to add theft, endangerment and insanity to my list of things I did today. ’
’ I prefer to be called evil genius. ’
’ You smell like a lawn mower. ’
’ I have just determined the situation to be far too hazardous! ’
’ Don’t worry. I won’t hit her. ’
’ This is low even for you! ’
’ You are all mine. ’
’ You know I have no choice. ’
‘ Please don’t do this. ’
’ You’re making this harder than it needs to be. ’
’ She needs me. ’
’ Leave me alone to die. ’
’ What is that monstrosity? ’
’ Does this look infected to you? ’
’ You’d better not have rabies. ’
’ Hiding behind your little friend won’t work anymore. ’
’ Didn’t I tell you? We got fired this morning. ’
’ That is the ugliest thing I have ever saw! ’
’ It has no place among us. ’
Fuck fuck fuck fuck FUCK THIS WATER IS COLD– [ attempting to use the almost vertical side rails as a ladder to climb up to the bow ]
Enjoying the evening air there buddy? [ he teases, holding onto the railing himself ] Looks like you went for a swim too… is the water as freezing as I think it is?
[ tries to monkey climb up to the outside of the rail ] F-fuck, how do you have a s-sense of humor in this s-s-situation? [ god DAMN ] C’mon, d-don’t dangle off. B-b-better to sit on t-top. Follow me.
Well, [ his face becoming solemn ] now’s a good a time as ever, right? [ Follow’s his lead and climbed over the rail, helping a certain girl that he’s with over as well ] After all, it very well be our last chance to laugh…
[ he nods politely to her, and receives a smile back ]
N-n-not a very optimistic g-guy, are you? [ he scoffs, turning his head back down to the ever-leaning deck ] C-can’t tell if that was d-d-dark or ch-cheerful. [ laughs emptily ] W-wish I had a damn d-drink. Freezing my b-b-balls off.
I don’t usually like to waste my time with optimism. Plus, hard to look on the bright side of things when you’re staring death in the face am I right? [ looks up to the stars and smiles fondly ] In times like these its best to see things as they are and try to fight through it, holding onto your comforts as much as you can to give you strength. Oh! [ he reaches into his uniform pocket and pulls out a flask, recently refilled the night before at the party ] Now that’s something I can help you with! [ hands it to the shivering man ]
[ blinks ] No shit, are you kidding? [ glances him over. by the looks of this guy he doubts that this flask is full of wine ] [ well, whatever. alcohol’s alcohol ] [ he takes it with a trembling hand, and throws back a sip before handing it back. ] Damn. [blHEChech ] Strong as shit. Wakes you the f-fuck up, though.
Fuck fuck fuck fuck FUCK THIS WATER IS COLD– [ attempting to use the almost vertical side rails as a ladder to climb up to the bow ]
[ FUCK FUCK FUCK ] [ his fingers stung from hanging on so long ]
[ he couldn’t hang on for much-] [ fuck ]
[ his grip slipped ]
SHIT
[ just like that he was falling ]
Oof-
[ he collided with something- no- someone- ] [ quickly he tried to grab onto them ]
[ good good good he was making good work of the- ] [ … ] [ SHIT ]
[ OW!!!!!! FUC K ] HEy- [ grabs for his arm ] Fuck! Don’t let go!
[ oh thank god ] [ thank fuck ]
Shit- sorry. I’m holding on!
[ grips tight onto his arm ]
[ tugs him close ] [ might as well save whoever he can ] C’mon. [ drags him up the railway ] Follow me if you don’t want to swim with the fishes.
Thank you- Uh- [ he doesn’t know his name but introductions feel somewhat out of place right now ] I’m Lukas. [ follows him up the ship ]
Lukas, huh. [ nods ] [ glances over his shoulder at him ] Lovino. D-don’t know if this’ll be our f-first or last greeting, but. [ 8′) ]

borsaiolo:
Chiara! [ squeezes her face ] I’m not letting you stay on this boat, it’s fucking sinking! [ he kisses her forehead, and then grabs her wrist, and starts power walking toward the boat ] I’ll find Sia and get her on the next one. Just get on the boat!
[ she gets dragged ] [ haha…. when did Lovino become this strong ] [ mmh… ] Lovino… [ she hugs him again ] [ ah… she doesn’t want to let go… ] stay safe okay? I’ll-I’ll see you when we get rescued okay?
[ squeezes her tight and closes his eyes ] Ti voglio. [ kisses her head ] Don’t get lost and stay on the boat. I’ll be right with you soon as I can. [ hesitantly lets her go and squeezes her shoulders. ]

[ jolts out of his sleep ] What in the hell–
[ thUMP ] [ what happened in the next room over??? did someone fall out of bed?? ] [ hoists up her nightgown ]
What the fuck- are you okay?
[ he’s on the ground, rubbing his head from the bump ] [ looks around frantically– where are his sisters?! ] I’m fine- [ he groans, and stands up, a little wobbly ] What the fuck happened? What was that?
I- I- [ freezes. holy fuck ] I don’t know… I couldn’t read the boarding pass, do we go up there… or… [ shakes her head frantically ] [ staying down here is giving her a bad feeling in her gut ] [ why were the passes only in English ]
[ frantically, he quickly shuffles to the coat slung over the nearby chair by his bed and drapes it over her shoulder ] I don’t know what happened, but we’d better get to higher ground. [ puts his hand gently on her back ] Let’s get up on deck and see what’s going on, yeah?
[ thank god for that coat, she’s freezing ] Yeah, yeah okay. [ shock is over, time to get to business ] The main stairwell is probably crowded as hell, though let’s go to a side one- [ surely theres nothing blocking the way to the kitchens, right- ]
You’re right. Let’s see if we can find another way out. [ looks down at the ground as the rats skitter by ] .. They probably know the way. C’mon.
[ grabs his arm ] Vámonos- [ hip hops over the rats ] [ people are starting to file out of their rooms too, h ur ry hurry ] Where- tell me what that signs says? [ she vaguely remembers the way to the kitchens, but if that sign says kitchens, well, shes not complaining ]
That sign? Uh- [ english, english ] To the cafeteria. Why do you want to go there? [ ?! worries ] I’m worried more about living than eating.
[ shakes her head ] [ NYOOMS THROUGH THE DOOR ] So is everyone else, right? They’ll head to the main stairwell, and these ones will get ignored. It makes sense to get to higher ground through here. [ shes very smort, but no time to think about that because safety ]
… Oh. [ well shit ] [ smiles and gives a breathy laugh as they Run ] You’re pretty clever, Lien.
[ laughs but chokes on air halfway through ] I hope so- [ the cafeteria!! now they just have to go through ] Those doors. [ she Dramatically Points and then shoves his arm forward ] Your sisters are on this floor, right?
I– They should be, but- [ worry ] What about you? You have to get to a boat, too–
There’s a stairwell to the left- I’ll go that way! [ smiles- gotta Stay Positive ] Go find your sisters- [ family is important, and he has his on this boat ] [ shes shaking a little, but not from cold because- ] [ grin ]
I’ll return your coat to you in America, don’t worry!
Ah- wait--! [ oh. she’s running already ] [ no time to dwell! ] [ NYOOM ]
borsaiolo:
I can’t board the boat right now. [ he cups her face so that she will focus, tousling the hair framing her face lightly ] Listen to me, Chiara, you have to be reasonable– [ MMMRRHHHRHRH THE METAL IS GROANING ]
Mmm….. [ hahahahah she’s not gonna cry she’s not gonna cry oh my go– ] Don’t do this! If you–if you or Sia die or get hurt… I can’t bear the thought. I don’t want to leave without you! [ the loud metal groaning became louder ]
Chiara! [ squeezes her face ] I’m not letting you stay on this boat, it’s fucking sinking! [ he kisses her forehead, and then grabs her wrist, and starts power walking toward the boat ] I’ll find Sia and get her on the next one. Just get on the boat!

borsaiolo:

Me?! Why me?! What about you! I don’t want to leave you behind! Sia wouldn’t want that either! [ she tries not to wince every time she talks ] [ god her headache is killing her ] As soon as we find her, let’s board the boat together I don’t want us to be separated–
I can’t board the boat right now. [ he cups her face so that she will focus, tousling the hair framing her face lightly ] Listen to me, Chiara, you have to be reasonable-- [ MMMRRHHHRHRH THE METAL IS GROANING ]
borsaiolo:
