guy who's having gauzy idealized wife flashbacks for the whole adventure but it turns out she isn't dead or anything he just really misses her and wants to get home
Conversation made while Dancing
✶ “Want to try leading this time?” “And give your family a heart attack? Of course I do.”
✶ “With that hand placement I’m surprised you haven’t proposed the bedroom yet.” “Now that you mention it…”
✶ “Don’t look at them. Look at me. It’s only us.”
✶ “Shit, I forgot the steps.” “I’ve been improvising for the past three minutes. Just look confident.”
✶ “You trust me?” “God help me, I do.”
✶ “Don’t drop me.” “Have I ever?”
✶ “Need a break? You’re out of breath…” “That has nothing to do with exhaustion.”
✶ “These clothes are too tight! I can barely move…” “You know I’m always more than willing to help you out of them.”
✶ “My feet hurt.” “Already? I thought you’d be the type to dance until dawn.” “I am, but not with an oaf stomping on my feet all night long!”

Grumpy x Sunshine: Defending the Relationship
✶ “I really don't get what you see in them.” “You don't have to. I do.”
✶ “Don't take it personally. They hate everyone.” “Everyone except you, it seems.”
✶ “How do you not get sick of [sunshine]? They're so loud and–” “Talk about my partner like that again and you'll get to swallow your teeth.”
✶ “Stop talking about [my partner] like that! They're not like that with me.” “Come on, [your partner] is an ass, and–” “Shut the fuck up. It's my decision, and I love them.”
✶ “Whoa, don't turn around, but there is some person glowering at us from across the street…” “Hm? Oh, that's my partner. And that's their happy face.”
✶ “It's literally none of your business who I am with.” “I'm just worried. They don't seem like the most gentle person and you're so…” “A grown adult, thanks.”
✶ “You could do so much better than this airhead.” “Being a happy person does not make them a fucking airhead.”
✶ “I just don't get it. You're so.... And they are so....” “And that's what we love in each other. And it's really not for you to understand.”
✶ “Are you sure this is what you want to sign up for? A lifetime of... this?” “In a heartbeat.”

Ways to express the vibe of “Oh. Oh.” without writing “Oh. Oh.”
because we all know the line is a classic for good reason but perhaps a bit too cliche
Oh. Oh no, I know what this is.
Well. That’s inconvenient.
Wait, why is…. Oooooh….
Okay, I know what this looks like. But… Oh man, who am I kidding?
Wait… Oh.
“Oh.” A blink. Then, slower, “Oh…”
“Wait…” Fuck.
What? Why would I feel that way when… Oh.
This is going to hurt, isn’t it?
“What the—“ Oh.
Everything aligns just right then. I’ve been a damn idiot.
“Oh my God!” … Oh my god…
Oh. Oh no…
My hands are shaking and suddenly I understand why my throat feels tight and my heart is pounding. I’m an oblivious fool.
Nope, nope. Not happening. … “Fuck.”
Oh. Oh?
types of kisses
RELIEVED after worrying about the other, cupping their face, pulling back to gaze into their eyes, “you okay?”
WANDERING, leaving hickeys, looking up to watch their reaction, worshipping their body, nipping their skin, pressing them back down, biting gently
SLOPPY, lazily drunk, groaning, ruining make up,
SOFT, several in quick succession, cradeling their head, arms around wait, reassuring, morphing into a hug
PLAYFUL, in between giggles, nipping the other’s lips, pulling away and leaning back in
CASUAL, upon meeting or separating, when entering a room, just because, on the cheek or forehead or hand, from behind while getting ready and watching in the mirror
DESPERATE, stumbling across the room, pressing against one another while pulling clothes off, gasping into the other’s mouth, teeth accidentally clashing, eventually wandering downwards
ANONYMOUS, in a club, not knowing the other’s name, back to the wall, gasping, hands wandering, “wanna get out of here?”

big fan of that trope where like. something really awful happens to Character or someone they love and they manage to catch the bastard who did it and get revenge. and it's righteous at first and everyones on their side but it slowly devolves into abject cruelty as everyone looks on in horror. dude that's enough he's stopped twitching etc etc
its good to acknoweldge the hollowness of revenge but sometimes you really do just need a story about someone who gets hurt and then kills and kills and kills and kills their enemies. its cathartic, babey.
"there's nothing that can bring my loved one back, so there's no point in killing you" and "there's nothing that can bring my loved one back, so there's nothing that can save you" are two themes that can and should co-exist
“You are the love that came without warning; You had my heart before I could say no.”
— A. D. (via arkienesanity)
“Having a soft heart in a cruel world is courage, not weakness.”
— Katherine Henson (via onlinecounsellingcollege)
“Thank you for loving me when I still tasted of heartache and war.”
— Nikita Gill (via wordsnquotes)
“Don’t you dare, for one minute, believe that my kindness makes me anything but insurmountable. I did not unzip my chest to every kind of hurt, and stagger back, wounded and alive, just to hear you call me weak for trying.”
— Ashe Vernon (aka latenightcornerstore), from her poem, Softness, in Words Dance 16. (via wordsdancemag)
“The cure for my insomnia lay in the sound of your heartbeat.”

“My heart, it has never been good for much. But, before I fall asleep, I will say this: of all the things my heart has ever loved, you are by far the best.”

“I was not lost in you. On the contrary. Because of you, I became to discover a ‘me’ I’ve never seen before and that motives me to create myself in a way that makes me feel fulfilled.”
