‘ i’ll find you again , wherever we end up next . ’

‘ the enormity of my desire disgusts me . ’

‘ please , one more kiss in the kitchen before we turn the lights off . ’

‘ i’ve been lost but i’m here now . you’re the only person who has ever been able to find me . ’

‘ almost dead yesterday , maybe dead tomorrow , but alive , gloriously alive , today . ’

‘ you are not broken . ’

‘ you can love and be loved , despite what may feel like the eternally brutal nature of the world . ’

‘ i did violence to my own heart . ’

‘ will i be forgiven for the sins i did not commit , but created ? ’

‘ i would never kiss anyone who doesn’t burn me like the sun . ’

‘ i would rather break the world than lose you . ’

‘ i think you and i have known each other in a few lifetimes . ’

‘ i didn’t know . i had no idea how greedy my heart really was . ’

‘ is that why the idea of losing you torments me so much ? ’

‘ how long have i been without you ? ’

‘ am i foolish for wanting this ? it will end in flames . it always does . ’

‘ sorry about the blood in your mouth . i wish it was mine . ’

‘ if i love you , is that a fact or a weapon ? ’

‘ tell me how all this , and love too , will ruin us . ’

‘ and you realize the one person in the world who loves you isn’t the one you thought it would be . ’

‘ it cannot be a mistake to have cared . it cannot be an error to have tried . it cannot be incorrect to have loved . ’

‘ finally , i plead guilty of adoring you . ’

‘ a child weaned on poison considers harm a comfort . ’

‘ without realizing , i find it in myself that i cannot stop thinking about you . ’

‘ tomorrow , when i wake up , i promise , i will be better . ’

‘ someone has to leave first . this is a very old story . there is no other version of this story . ’

‘ when i imagine myself , i am always leaving . i couldn’t draw my own face if god asked . ’

‘ do we simply stare at what’s horrible and forgive it ? ’

‘ i wanted to let go of the pain even though it was the last thing that felt alive from you . ’

‘ have i endured loneliness with grace ? ’

‘ i’ll be your slaughterhouse , your killing floor , your morgue and final resting , walking around with this bullet inside me ‘cause i couldn’t make you love me and i am tired of pulling your teeth . ’

‘ and then my soul saw you and kind of went , ‘ oh , there you are . i’ve been looking for you . ’ ’

‘ sometimes it feels like someone else is wearing my body . ’

‘ i spent my life arguing how i mattered until it didn’t matter . ’

‘ who knew my haven would be my coffin ? ’

‘ dead is the safest i’ve ever been . ’

‘ i’ve never been so alive . ’

‘ you know what i was gonna tell you before , but didn’t have the nerve ? you got your name written all over me . i got my name written on you , too . ’

‘ you already are something . you always were . and you still have time to be . ’

‘ you know me by heart . it infuriates me that you know me by heart . ’

‘ why am i waiting for you ? hungering and thirsting for you in every cranny of my soul and even in my ribs ? ’

‘ you came with a handful of pain and a smile which broke the ground under my feet as the earthquake does when two people meet . ’

‘ the only good thing is that i’m getting used to suffering . ’

‘ the return to time was not my choice . ’

‘ we are built to live inside each other . this means we are built to ruin . ’

‘ time does not bring relief ; you all have lied . ’

‘ time does not know how to keep our hopes safe . ’

‘ you needed me so much that you had to end me . ’

‘ there are days where i am morbidly in love with you , and this is one of those days . ’

‘ i know no end to desiring you . ’

‘ i fear that i am both too much yet not enough . ’

‘ yes , yes , yes , i do like you . i am afraid to say the stronger word . ’

‘ a heart’s a heavy burden . ’

‘ life , as i see it , is all about farewells rather than reunions . ’

‘ heaven is real and you only had two minutes to prove it to me . ’

‘ it was already love . ’

‘ everyone desires love but also finds it impossible to believe that they deserve it . ’

‘ i’ll love you until i forget how to . ’

‘ i’ll love you until i forget how to and then i’ll fall like my knees aren’t already bruised from doing it and i’ll remember why you’re worth the ache . ’

‘ of course i’ll hurt you . of course you’ll hurt me . of course we’ll hurt each other . but this is the very condition of existence . ’

‘ nothing makes me sadder and nothing makes me happier than you . ’

‘ i love you and i do not want to love you , it is too much and too difficult . ’

‘ grief is just love with no place to go . ’

‘ i felt my life with both my hands to see if it was there . ’

‘ you do this , you do . you take the things you love and you tear them apart . ’

‘ i hope it’s love . i’m trying really hard to make it love . ’

‘ if you touch me again i might burn up in the cold air . ’

‘ i asked you not to leave several times . ’

‘ i’ve only adored you lifetimes ago and here we are . it’s nice to see you again . ’

‘ all time ever does is pass and all i ever do is remember . ’

‘ i feel as though we were never strangers , you and i , not even for a moment . ’

‘ i’d choose you ; in a hundred different lifetimes , in a hundred worlds , in any version of reality , i’d find you and i’d choose you . ’

‘ nothing about this is soft but we pretend . ’

‘ maybe you and i are just a dream . ’

‘ i know you loved me too , you knew me , and it gladdens my heart . ’

‘ i promise i shall never give up and that i’ll die yelling and laughing . ’

‘ i don’t do anything with my life except romanticize and decay with indecision . ’

‘ the world was made so that we could find each other in it . ’

‘ you don’t meet the people you love , you recognize them . ’

‘ i think you and i have known each other a few lifetimes . ’

‘ this body knows fear like a front porch knows welcome – it is always coming home . ’

‘ i miss you more than i remember you . ’

‘ if i could have done it all again , i would have loved you better . but i could not have loved you more . ’

‘ we could have been happy . i know that , and it is perhaps the hardest thing to know . ’

‘ you want a better story . who wouldn’t ? ’

↬ OF FAIRYTALES, FOLKLORE AND FAEKIND.

scenarios inspired by various settings, encounters & magic tucked between pages, fashioned by the author.

+ feel free to change pronouns / roles !

FAIRYTALES.

‘ let me guess, you thought a true love’s kiss would help you. ’

‘ you will always follow the trail in the wood, and it will guide you on the same path, to the same cottage, the same witch. it will always be your undoing. ’

‘ i have never seen a more tragic creature. how might i help you ? ’

‘ you must take this knife and plunge it into his / her / their heart. ’

‘ forget yourself. that is how you break your curse. ’

‘ remove this thorn from my hand, and you will be rewarded. ’

‘ i’m tired of being a prince. i think i would actually enjoy being a frog. ’

‘ tell me of the beast, and i will hunt it for you. ’

‘ mice are never just mice, and pumpkins are rarely just pumpkins. ’

‘ i don’t think breaking a spell should be this simple. ’

‘ i never thought i’d return here, to the site where it all began. ’

‘ are you an orphan ? it’s just that they’re always finding themselves in magical predicaments. ’

‘ the mirror speaks falsely in your ear. it is your true curse. ’

‘ my heart feels uneasy, although i am free. is it supposed to ? ’

‘ i’m sorry, it’s just that i thought this is the part of the quest where the animals ought to start talking to me. ’

‘ of course i plan on going to the ball. why wouldn’t i ? ’

‘ jealousy has made more witches out of women than adam’s rib. ’

‘ where has choosing goodheartedness and having golden hair ever gotten you ? ’

‘ are you a helpful wizard, or the kind that sits in a tower reading moldy books ? ’

‘ i’m dreadfully bored. who knew waiting for a prince was so strenuous ? ’

‘ we all have towers we must leave, and magic that will try to thwart us. ’

‘ i’m afraid for the clock to strike. the hour will ring in the place of my heartbeat when we must be parted. ’

‘ i had no idea carpets could fly. or pigs for that matter. ’

‘ what would happen if the knight did not arrive to the castle, and the dragon made a den of it and a hoard of its people and prize of its princess ? ’

‘ i sometimes think i was switched out at birth, like a lizard in a bird’s nest. i belong somewhere else. ’

‘ in another kingdom exists a throne and a crown that is mine by right. ’

‘ if i did not wake up one day, i would still be waiting on a spinning wheel, dutifully bored. ’

‘ something in me knows you are here for my heart. ’

FOLKLORE.

‘ in all the myths i’ve heard, it’s never been worthwhile to approach strange sights. it’s best to turn around and pretend you never saw them. ’

‘ nothing is folklore until it exists longer than consciousness remembers, and lives in spite of it. ’

‘ i’ve heard your name before, in songs and lengthy ballads. ’

‘ whatever has led you here to me, there is destiny in its making. ’

‘ the beast returns every century or so, and tries to devour us. it will come again before long. ’

‘ a pretty face is not nothing. it earns you a hearth and a kind hand, after all. ’

‘ their lips are red as blood, and their teeth carve ruin into throats. ’

‘ aren’t dragons supposed to breathe fire and make a fuss about having their treasure found ? ’

‘ someday you will become a pilgrim, a saint, or a favored story, while i will be a voice on the wind. ’

‘ the stories say brides don’t live to the light before demons devour them. why should i become one ? ’

‘ there was another girl like you once, in a small town like this one. i can’t remember if she became the monster or died trying to escape it. ’

‘ remember to festoon the hearth with garlic, or rosemary, or one of those mundane herbs that keep evil out. ’

‘ that sounds like nothing but a tall tale, but i’m certain smaller minds would eat it up. ’

‘ to cross this bridge, you’ll have to pay a heavy toll. ’

‘ don’t stray too far from the path set before you, or something interesting might happen. ’

‘ i’ve passed that yard of crops a million times, but the crow never moved from its post until this morning. ’

‘ it is as though ancient fears are still in us like scars or stitches. ’

‘ graveyards aren’t where you find ghosts. look for them in places that feel like memories you shouldn’t have. ’

‘ stories reap princes from peasants as if their skins were crops in the ground. ’

‘ what form does your fear take ? surely not that of a bear or a lion. such things are too assuring. ’

‘ i found myself where everything was too familiar to be real. ’

‘ in safe beds on cold dark nights, we learn to face the monsters in our own minds. ’

FAEKIND.

‘ you’re not to partake in a fairy feast. don’t you know it’s the food that will devour you ? ’

‘ i’m sorry you did not read the eyes of the trees before finding yourself here. ’

‘ i wish to go back. i want to forget everything. ’

‘ you think that believing in us is enough to protect you ? that it will kill us if you forget, and we prey upon your unknowing ? ’

‘ step around the ring three times, like a backwards clock. that’s how you get to fairyland. ’

‘ i’ve never heard such sweet music before. ’

‘ where the trees begin to twist and groan in their roots, remember you must not make a right turn. ’

‘ i didn’t feel like i’d stepped into another world, but like it stepped into me. i knew i was there and forgot i’d left anything behind. ’

‘ how amusing. a human ! ’

‘ would you be my bride if i were to take you into the ground ? ’

‘ i know of tunnels you might take, the burrows of trolls and rabbits. ’

‘ don’t take anything from this realm, none of it is worth the price of keeping. ’

‘ there are courts by many titles in the lands beyond the veil, all of them other. ’

‘ names are not like currency here; they are more precious than diamonds and legacies. ’

‘ did you think all of us looked like goblins ? ’

‘ getting here is easy, but getting home is quite the trick. ’

‘ i shall give you a riddle, and it will puzzle you until you know the answer but forget your own soul. ’

‘ a bloodline is nothing when you’ve outlived civilizations. ’

‘ refusing my hospitality is like human sin, and it will bring worse upon you. ’

‘ everything here is and isn’t, and things are and aren’t. ’

‘ on lonely nights i stare into the trees, and a strange face leers back. ’

‘ the thrones here are made of bones and blood, and built upon decay. ’

‘ a third time is not a charm, but a bargain. it says that you want something enough to wager your sense. ’

‘ it is dangerous to think that magical beings do not have human intensities. ’
