better ideas for chance encounters than a bar or coffee shop:

a storm is delaying our flight home and i’m afraid of thunder, please talk to me while we wait

we’re both in small claims court and i got into a huge fight with the person suing me but you stepped in to hold me back before security got there

i drove two hours to the closest video rental store that’s still operating and you were checking out the only copy of the movie i was after

i hit you with my car but luckily you’re okay, but we should still exchange information i guess

our friends that we came here with went off together and now we’re making awkward small talk

i was worried about buying something off of someone creepy from craigslist but oh no you’re hot

my friend talked me into playing a drunken game of spin the bottle even though we’re all adults and now we have to make out

we both decided to take a [yoga/fencing/cooking etc] class and we’re the only two assholes not taking it seriously and everyone else is giving us dirty looks but we keep grinning over at each other

my date just made a scene in public and got arrested and now i’m stranded in a city without a ride home

sharing a cab together

you’re trying to get me to sign a petition and i have no idea what you’re talking about

you’re drunk at this festival and dancing on the table and when you eventually fell i caught you

i tried to get a part time job at this place right by my house but they hired you instead and i have to see you every day when i go there now

blind date!

my roommate is your ex, and your roommate is my ex, and i caught them sleeping together and told you so now we’re pissed off and going on a date to get away from them even though we didnt really know each other before now

Strange Specimen 01: Jersey Devil

Sightings have been few in the last decade but the denizens of southern New Jersey still believe that The Devil lurks in the treetops surrounding the Pine Barrens. Its inhuman howl is still mistaken for the wind.

HOZIER  LYRIC  MEME: PT. ONE

a  compilation  of  various  lyrics  from  my  Lord  and  Savior,  HOZIER.

TAKE  ME  TO  CHURCH:

❝ every  sunday's  getting  more  bleak. ❞

❝  we  were  born  sick,  you  heard  them  say  it. ❞

❝  the  only  heaven  i’ll  be  sent  to,  is  when  i’m  alone  with  you. ❞

❝  i’ll  tell  you  my  sins  and  you  can  sharpen  your  knife. ❞

❝  to  keep  the  goddess  on  my  side,  she  demands  a  sacrifice. ❞

❝  that’s  a  fine  looking  high  horse. ❞

❝  we've  a lot  of  starving  faithful. ❞

❝  no  masters  or  kings  when  the  ritual  begins. ❞

❝  there  is  no  sweeter  innocence  than  our  gentle  sin. ❞

ANGEL  OF  SMALL  DEATH  AND  THE  CODEINE  SCENE:

❝  toying  somewhere  between  love  and  abuse. ❞

❝  shaking  the  wings  of  their  terrible  youths. ❞

❝  no  more  alone  or  myself  could  i  be. ❞

❝  bloody  and  raw,  but  i  swear  it  is  sweet. ❞

❝  and  lease  this  confusion,  i'll  wander  the  concrete. ❞

JACKIE  AND  WILSON:

❝  so  tired  trying  to  see  from  behind  the  red  inj my  eyes. ❞

❝  no  better  version  of  me  i  could  pretend  to  be  tonight. ❞

❝  'cause  with  my  mid-youth  crisis  all  said  and  done,  i  need  to  be  youthfully  felt.  ❞

❝ we'll  steal  her  Lexus,  be  detectives,  ride  round  pickin'  up  clues.  ❞

❝  lord  it'd  be  great  to  find  a  place  we  could  escape  sometime.  ❞

❝ every  version  of  me  dead  and  buried  in  the  yard  outside. ❞

SOMEONE  NEW:

❝  you  knew  who  i  was  with  every  step  that  i  ran  to  you. ❞

❝  would  things  be  easier  if  there  was  a  right  way ?  ❞

❝  honey,  there  is  no  right  way. ❞

❝  there's  an  art  to  life's  distractions. ❞

❝  some  like  to  imagine  the  dark  caress  of  someone  else. ❞

❝  i  guess  any  thrill  will  do. ❞

❝  the  stranger  the  better.  ❞

TO  BE  ALONE:

❝  never  felt  too  good  in  crowds. ❞

❝  all  i've  ever  done  is  hide  from  our  times. ❞

❝  but  you  don't  know  what  hell  you  put  me  through. ❞

❝  it  feels  good  to  be  alone  with  you. ❞

❝  there  are  questions  i  can't  ask. ❞ 

❝  we  should  run  away. ❞

FROM  EDEN.

❝  there's  something  tragic  about  you.  ❞ 

❝  there's  something  lonesome  about  you.  ❞

❝  get  closer  to  me. ❞

❝  idealism  sits  prison,  chivalry  fell  on  it's  sword. ❞

❝  innocence  died  screaming,  honey  ask  me,  i  should  know. ❞

❝  babe,  there's  something  wretched  about  this. ❞

❝  oh,  what  a  sin. ❞ 

SEDATED:

❝  just  a  little  rush  babe. ❞

❝  to  feel  dizzy,  to  derail  the  mind  of  me. ❞

❝  you  and  i  nursing  on  a  poison  that  never  stung. ❞

❝  something  isn’t  right. ❞

❝  i  keep  catching  little  words,  but  the  meanings  thin. ❞

❝  we're  slaves  to  any  semblance  of  touch. ❞

❝  darlin’, don't  you  stand there watching. ❞

❝  free  and  young, and  we  can  feel  none  of  it. ❞

WORK  SONG:

❝  is  that  the  kind'a  way  to  face  the  burning  heat ?  ❞ 

❝  she/he/you  give  me  toothaches  just  from  kissin'  me. ❞

❝  no  grave  can  hold  my  body  down. ❞

❝  i  was  three  days  on  a  drunken  sin. ❞

❝  heaven  and  hell  were  words  to  me . ❞

LIKE  REAL  PEOPLE  DO:

❝  i  had  a  thought,  dear. ❞

❝  why  were  you  digging  ?  ❞

❝  what  did  you  bury  ?  ❞

❝  honey,  just  put  your  sweet  lips  on  my  lips.  ❞

❝  i  could  not  ask  you  where  you  came  from.  ❞

❝  we  should  just  kiss  like  real  people do.  ❞

IT  WILL  COME  BACK:

❝  you  know  better  than  to  look  at  me  like  that. ❞ 

❝  you  know  better  than  to  talk  to  me  like  that.  ❞

❝  don’t  give  it  a  hand,  offer  it  a  soul. ❞

❝  jesus  christ,  don’t  be  kind  to  me.  ❞

❝  don’t  let  me  in  with  no  intention  to  keep  me.  ❞

❝  you  don’t  understand. ❞

❝  honey,  don’t  feed  me,  i  will  come  back.  ❞

❝  that’s  a  kindness  you  can’t  avoid.  ❞

❝  give  me  mercy.  ❞

❝  you’ll  hear  me  howling  outside  your  door.  ❞

@knifewields liked this! for a starter.

                                                He doesn’t ᵘⁿᵈᵉʳˢᵗᵃⁿᵈ it. 

Lingering right beyond what his peripherals, the Eye hesitates, wavers and stares right ahead at the figure by the approaching bus stop. There are a few miscellaneous people, mainly students milling just beyond the stop itself, and Isaac slows his steps. The Eye is focused on one person in particular: an otherwise normal looking stranger if not for the way the thing grew almost ᵃˡᵃʳᵐᵉᵈ.  

Isaac’s 'ⁿᵗᵉʳᵉˢᵗ ᵖᵉᵃᵏˢ, wonders what could be making the thing act up.

He heads right for the stranger, settles his bag on the ground and double checks the bus schedule. With decidedly enough time, the blond fishes out a cigarette from his pocket.
