❝ you’re a monster. ❞ from jill!

VAMPIRIC STARTER PROMPTS - OPEN

there’s hardly any sympathy from caleb, of course—a mere sarcastic “oh, boo hoo.” 

he knows better than to take this seriously; the man’s been alive since the gregorian times, there was a time where he could have and he still chose not to. he grins, shining an ugly looking row of teeth older and more corroded than the pitchfork in his right hand. he doesn’t think, just wipes the blood off of the oxidized metal. there is a time to worry and a time to hunt, and his time for either should have run out forever ago.

“i suppose if that’s all you’ve got to complain about i’d tell you to send your complaints to tchernobog.” misdirection, or whatever he’s justifying it as is a playful last jab at that damned hellspawn’s quick death. it’s what he deserves after killing his final love.

¹ .ㅤ‘ dracula ’ .     the following is a compilation of quotes taken from the novel   dracula   by   bram stoker .   adjustments have been made whenever necessary , including any changes to gender specific pronouns .   do not add anything on to these memes .

there are darknesses in life and there are lights, and you are one of the lights.

we learn from failure, not from success.

i am longing to be with you: by the sea, where we can talk together freely and build our castles in the air.

welcome to my house. come freely. go safely; and leave something of the happiness you bring.

i doubt; i fear; i think strange things, which i dare not confess to my own soul.

there is a reason why all things are as they are.

remember my friend, that knowledge is stronger than memory, and we should not trust the weaker.

i want you to believe in things that you cannot.

despair has its own calms.

how blessed are some people, whose lives have no fears, no dreads; to whom sleep is a blessing that comes nightly, and brings nothing but sweet dreams.

loneliness will sit over our roofs with brooding wings.

even if they be not harmed, their heart may fail them in so much and so many horrors; and hereafter they may suffer–both in waking, from their nerves, and in sleep, from their dreams.

the world seems full of good men, even if there are monsters in it.

i sometimes think we must be all mad.

though sympathy alone can’t alter facts, it can help to make them more bearable.

do you not think that there are things which you cannot understand, and yet which are; that some people see things that others cannot?

it is a strange world, a sad world, a world full of miseries, and woes, and troubles.

you don’t know what it is to doubt everything, even yourself.

do you believe in destiny? that even the powers of time can be altered for a single purpose?

oh, my dear, if you only knew how strange is the matter regarding which i am here.

i have learned not to think little of any one’s belief, no matter how strange it may be.

for life be, after all, only a waiting for something else than what we’re doing; and death be all that we can rightly depend on.

but we are strong, each in our purpose, and we are all more strong together.

i have a sort of empty feeling; nothing in the world seems of sufficient importance to be worth the doing.

i could not resist the temptation of mystifying them a bit, i suppose it is some taste of the original apple that remains still in our mouths.

i want to cut off their head and take out their heart.

yes, there is some one i love, though they have not told me yet that they even love me.
