. ݁⋆⁺₊✧ 🔪ཀཀ : NOIREVEMBER . . roleplay crime sentence starters, ⁽ ⁰⁰¹ ⁾ based on NOIR CRIME FILMS. genre: mystery, thriller, crime, coming of age.

You're not very tall, are you?

How do you like your brandy?

You may take off your coat and sit.

It's too hot in here for anyone who has any blood in their veins.

You can smoke here, just don't do it in front of my face.

You're looking at a very dull survival of a very dull life.

I can still speak English when my business demands it.

You didn't like working for the district attorney, eh?

What do you know about my family, [name]?

What'd you want to see me about?

I'm being blackmailed again.

[Name] has left me, about a month ago without a word.

We used to swap shots between drinks or drinks between shots.

They're alike only in having the same corrupt blood.

They have all the usual vices, besides those they've invented for themselves.

Do you want to know anything or just get rid of [him/her/them]?

I don't need any money now, but when I do, just send me the money.

Are you trying to tell me my duties?

You're a private detective? I didn't know they existed, except in books.

God, you're a mess, aren't you?

I would've thought a case like that took a little effort.

Is there any "how to be a Detective in 10 Easy Lessons, " school text-book?

I see. There is no professional secrets?

You don't have to play poker with me, [name].

I don't mind if you don't like my manners. I don't like 'em myself.

Don't waste your time trying to cross-examine me!

Do you always think you can handle people like trained seals?

I'm sure I don't care what you say, [name].

Would you do me a very small favor?

Yeah, I'm a private dick on a case.

Perhaps I'm asking too much, although it doesn't seem too much to me somehow.

Look, you got a dead man lying right at your feet.

Lie down there and be quiet.

That's a little special service I always provide all my clients. Including being insolent.

You'd do anything for [him/her/them], wouldn't you?

I don't slap so good around this time of the evening.

Those are harsh words to throw at me, especially when I am walking out of your bedroom.

Don't you ever go to bed? What you been doing?

What would anybody be doing down there?

The wound had already bled under the skin while they were still alive.

You better tell me what you're working on, [name]!

This doesn't look like the way you'd handle it.

Give me another day, [name]. I may have something for you.

I was beginning to think perhaps you worked in bed like Marcel Proust.

There isn't much money in this business, if i'm being honest.

Perhaps it wouldn't have been such a bad idea.

A woman telephoned me shortly after this thing was delivered.

Do you know where this picture was taken?

You were afraid that they might turn up something, which I couldn't sit on just yet.

I hope the police never traces that call.

I'm trying to find out why do you want to find out things I have been working on.

Anyway, it'll give us something to talk about next time we meet.

Do you remember me now? Hmm?

How much do you remember about last night?

As a matter of fact, I wouldn't say anything about anything.

Your story didn't sound quite right.

Blood. Quite a lot of blood.

I think we'll let the police in on this.

I could make it my business. I could make your business mine.

I wondered why you didn't ask me who I was.

You know, you talk too much.

I might even make it worth your while to talk to me.

Why don't you call the cops like you said you would?

I think you better get out of here.

Take it away and play on it somewhere else.

What did you come up here for?

I don't know how you got here, but I don't want you. Will you get out?

Can't you talk without pointing that gun?

Who are you? What do you get out of this?

Wait a minute, what do you mean, a couple of murders?

Well, then, nothing happened, so I got tired of waiting and went home.

Tell me, what do you usually do when you're not working?

I don't wanna hurt you. I'm tryin' to help you.

We could have had a lot of fun, if you weren't a detective.

You know, there's one thing that puzzles me. You don't seem in much of a hurry to find [name].

I can't imagine, unless you're worried about where I am all the time.

You weren't worried about me, were you? Afraid I'd get hurt?

You've already been paid, haven't you?

Kissing you is all right. It's nice. I'd like to do more of it.

If you say that again, I'll keep on saying it until I find out.

I'm trying to think of something appropriate.

You know, I think you're telling the truth, for a change.

Mm-mm. I can't afford to be seen with you.

I wanted to tell you, you can stop worrying and call off your bloodhounds.

You could've yelled for help!

Don't you even want to know who I am?

Do you want to know what I've got, or don't you?

You can get yourself hurt, kicking on doors.

Light me a cigarette, will you?

Will you get out of this and stay out if I let you go?

Get that knife and cut these ropes!

I don't suppose there's a gun around here?

I didn't have a chance to thank you for what you did back there.

I guess.. I'm in love with you.

You're the one who's shaking now.

What's the matter, haven't you ever seen a gun before?

What do you want me to do, count three like they do in the movies?

Nothing you can't fix.

[jadexorcist]

“you can fire that thing if you want, but i'm not going anywhere.”

"How courageous," Daiyu scoffs, inspecting the weapon in her hand, "But aren't you lucky . . ." she continues, deft fingers running over the shooting mechanism, "This jammed so it won't fire regardless," she continues, "And I don't have the tools to fix it so it's useless," she laments, as if she had really INTENDED to shoot the other. Setting the weapon down, "Let's see if you're so brave next time, when the thing actually works," she shrugs.

A pause, "Did you know that it wouldn't work? Is that why you're so bold?" she asks.

[jadexorcist]

“you look good for a dead girl.”

"And you look worse for a guy barely alive," Daiyu snorts, pushing hair out of her face . . . God, she feels like shit, her entire body aches and is her ears ringing? Why is her ears ringing? Trying to will her limbs to work, "What the hell happened?" she groans, still trying to grasp the situation . . . Did she pass out? God, why did she have to pass out next to this asshole? She knows if she asks him, he's just going to dance around the subject, poke fun at her, then leave without ever helping her — and did she want to give him the benefit of the doubt that he might actually help her figure out what happened? Nope.

"Ugh," she feels around for her phone, maybe that'll tell her something about what happened . . .

• A knight who can't control their squire can't control a battlefield. • I taught you better than this. What were you thinking? • That's a noble's crest. Where did you really come from? • I'm supposed to teach you honor, but I have none left. • I heard you defended my name in the barracks. That was foolish. • A squire serves. A knight leads. You're caught between both now. • I release you from your oath. You deserve better than this broken knight. • You're bleeding through your bandages again. Let me see it. • I told you to stay behind the lines. What part of that didn't you understand? • Polish my armor. We ride at dawn. • You swore an oath to serve me. That means listening when I tell you to run. • I can't knight you if you're dead. So stop trying to die for me. • Your form is sloppy. Again. And this time, don't drop your elbow. • You think carrying my sword makes you a warrior? • I'm not your father. I'm your knight.  • Take off your helm. Let me see how bad it is. • You rode into the fray without orders. You could have been killed. • I was your age once. I thought I was invincible too. • You're trembling. It's alright. Everyone's afraid their first time. • You're not ready for your vigil. I don't care what you think. • I watched you fall from your horse. I thought— • Your sword arm is getting stronger. But your footwork is still shit. • I took you on because I saw something in you. Don't make me regret it. • I'm teaching you to fight so you can survive. Not so you can be reckless. • You've earned your spurs. But you'll always be my squire first. • I didn't ask for your opinion. I asked you to sharpen my blade. • Take my cloak. You're shivering. • You can't cry in front of the others. You can cry in front of me. • I released you from your service. Why are you still here? • That armor is too big for you. You look like a child playing dress-up. • I told you never to touch my sword. So why is it covered in blood? • I can't protect you if you won't stay where I put you. • Your hands are blistered. You've been training without me, haven't you? • The king is offering me land and a title. I have to take a wife. You understand what that means. • You broke formation to pull me out. That's either loyalty or stupidity. • I taught you everything I know. Now you're better than me. • Don't look at me like that. Not here. Not now. • You've been knighted by the crown. We're equals now. I don't know how to— • I heard you screaming in your sleep. How long have the nightmares been this bad?• I never wanted a squire. I wanted to fight alone. • I'm dying. Listen to me—there are things I need to tell you before—

WHERE WINDS MEET ; 02

[ohisms]

✱˚｡⋆ ↪ THE LAST GOODBYE. ( a collection of dialogue prompts from peter jackson's 2014 film 𝒕he 𝒉obbit : the battle of five armies. adjust phrasing / gendered terms as necessary. )

he hit it!  ...he hit the dragon!

his arrows cannot pierce its hide.  i fear nothing will.

we cannot turn back.

[ name ]!  what are you doing?!  you were supposed to leave! 

i came to help! 

who are you that would stand against me? 

now that is a pity.  what will you do now? 

you are forsaken.

you cannot save him from the fire.

tell me, wretch, how now shall you challenge me? 

you have nothing left... but your death.

[ name ].  look at me.  you look at me.

you are not alone, [ name ].

[ name ], come on, we're leaving.

they are your people, you must go.

i know how i feel, i'm not afraid.

i don't know what that means.

keep it.  as a promise.

that is where you are wrong.

i'll catch my death in this cold.

it's all right, darling.

i have said it many times, this is a man of noble stock.

i'm not the master of this town.  where is he?! where's the master?!

enough!  look around you.  have you not had your fill of death? 

winter is upon us.  we must look to our own.

we must look to our own.  to the sick and the helpless.

those who can stand, tend to the wounded.

we must salvage what we can.

i tried talking to him, he won't listen.

he doesn't sleep, he barely eats... he's not been himself.

it's this place... a sickness lies upon it.

behold, the great treasure hoard of [ name ].

no one rests until it is found.

take only what you need.  we have a long march ahead.

we can take refuge inside the mountain.

what gold is in that mountain is cursed.

we will take only what is promised to us.

you saw something out there.

they bore a mark i have not seen in a long time.

[ name ], it is your king's command.

i command my own heart.

spells will not save you.

i am not alone.

you should've stayed dead.

do you doubt the loyalty of anyone here? 

dragon sickness.  i've seen it before.

it is a fierce and jealous love, [ name ].

perhaps it is best it remains lost.

i'm going to plant it in my garden.

it's a poor prize to take back to [ location ].

there's gold enough in that mountain for all.

get some fires going.

[ name ], you take the night watch.

do not tell me what they have lost.

i know well enough their hardship.

they have much to be grateful for.

the children, the wounded and the women come first.

all quiet, nothing to report.

we did not look to see you here.

i heard you needed aid.

i came to reclaim something of mine.

i ask that you honor your pledge.

i will not treat with any man while an armed host lies beyond my front door.

be gone, ere our arrows fly! 

this does not concern you.

we are, in fact, outnumbered.

we attack at dawn.  are you with us? 

true friends are hard to come by.

i have been blind, but now i begin to see.

i have been betrayed.

[ name ], the quest is fulfilled.

is this treasure truly worth more than your honor? 

this gold is ours, and ours alone.  by my life, i will not part with a single coin.

i will not part with a single coin.  not.  one.  piece of it.

you started this, [ name ].  you will forgive me if i finish it.

i'm not doing it for you.

i'm not afraid of [ name ].

how came you by this heirloom? 

they are taking us for fools.  this is a ruse.  a filthy lie.

you would steal from me? 

i may be a burglar, but i'd like to think i'm an honest one.

you have no claim over me, you miserable rat.

i was going to give it to you.

you are changed, [ name ].

do not speak to me of loyalty.

did you not hear me?  [ location ] is surrounded.

life is cheap.  but treasures such as this cannot be counted in lives lost.  it is worth all the blood we can spend.

you are lesser now than you have ever been.

i will not hide behind a wall of stone while others fight our battles for us! 

it is not in my blood, [ name ].

will you follow me... one last time? 

what took you so long? 

this was their plan all along.

i think [ name ] has fled.

keep low and out of sight. 

if you see something, report back — do not engage, do you understand me? 

don't be ridiculous, you'll never make it.

they'll see you coming, and kill you.

they'll never see me.

i'm not asking you to allow it, [ name ].

you will not turn away.  not this time.

what does it matter? they are mortal.

there is no love in you.

what do you know of love?  nothing.

you think it is love?  are you ready to die for it? 

we'll live to fight another day.

you will die last.

don't move, don't move.  lie still.

i wish to part from you in friendship.

you're not going anywhere, [ name ], you're going to live.

you did what only a true friend would do.  forgive me.  i was too blind to see it.

i'm so sorry that i have led you into such peril.

i'm glad to have shared in each of your perils, [ name ].

go back to your books, and your armchair.  plant your trees, watch them grow.

if more people valued home above gold, this world would be a merrier place.

i cannot go back.

[ name ] ... your mother loved you.  more than anyone.  more than life.

they want to bury him.

if this is love, i do not want it.  take it from me, please.  why does it hurt so much? 

songs will be sung, tales will be told.

well, i think i'll slip away quietly — can you tell the others i said goodbye? 

you can tell them yourself.

if you're ever passing [ location ], tea is at four.

you are welcome at any time.

it's here i must leave you.

i quite liked having a wizard around.

don't take me for a fool.

i've kept my eye on you ever since.

i'm not dead.  presumed or otherwise.

𝐔𝐍𝐃𝐄𝐑 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐒𝐊𝐈𝐍

“If you keep looking at me like that, I won’t be able to think straight.”

“You should really stop standing that close… unless you’re trying to make a point.”

“Your heart’s racing. Is it fear, or something else?”

“You’ve got no idea what you do to me, do you?”

“Say my name again. Slower.”

“If I leaned in right now, would you stop me?”

“Careful—keep staring and people might notice what you’re thinking.”

“You always smell like trouble.”

“You make it hard to remember why this is a bad idea.”

“If you wanted me to leave, you would’ve made me by now.”

𝐂𝐋𝐎𝐒𝐄 𝐐𝐔𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐄𝐑𝐒

“You really don’t need to touch me to make your point… but I’m not complaining.”

“Do you always breathe this heavily when someone’s near you?”

“You’re shaking. Is that anger—or anticipation?”

“You shouldn’t be this close to me. I might take it the wrong way.”

“I think you like testing my patience.”

“You don’t have to say anything—your body already did.”

“One step closer, and you’ll find out exactly what I mean.”

“You’ve been staring at my mouth all night.”

“This is dangerous, you know that.”

“For once, I’d like to know what you’re thinking when you look at me like that.”

𝐖𝐇𝐄𝐑𝐄 𝐃𝐄𝐒𝐈𝐑𝐄 𝐋𝐈𝐍𝐆𝐄𝐑𝐒

“Tell me to stop, and I will.”

“You shouldn’t say things like that if you don’t mean them.”

“Do you really think I came here for conversation?”

“There’s something about the way you say my name that ruins me.”

“If I touch you now, I don’t think I’ll be able to stop.”

“You look like sin dressed up in restraint.”

“You’re not helping by looking at me like that.”

“This tension is going to break eventually. Might as well decide how.”

“You always show up when I’m trying to forget you.”

“I should go—but I don’t want to.”

𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐒𝐋𝐎𝐖 𝐁𝐔𝐑𝐍

“You keep pretending it’s just banter. It’s not.”

“Maybe we’re both too stubborn to admit what this is.”

“If I told you I’ve thought about this before, would that scare you?”

“This is dangerous, but gods, it feels right.”

“You’re trembling—don’t tell me you’re not feeling this too.”

“You can’t keep playing with fire and expect not to get burned.”

“Don’t look at me like that. I might forget how to be decent.”

“Every time you leave, I pretend I don’t care. I’m a terrible liar.”

“If this is a mistake, it’s one I’ll make twice.”

“You make temptation look far too easy to love.”

[saintsinstatic]

Jae had moved closer without really deciding to. One moment he was leaning near the doorway, the next he had drifted toward the stove like warmth pulled him there. The kitchen felt smaller now, filled with steam, quiet sounds, and the faint smell of garlic and noodles. He stood near enough that Daiyu had to move around him rather than past him, though he never fully blocked her path. More like a large stray dog settling somewhere comfortable and expecting the world to shift around it.

His eyes stayed on her hands while she worked. Stirring the pot. Tasting the soup. Reaching for seasoning. Every small movement caught his attention with quiet focus.

Jae snorted under his breath.

“Yeah, yeah,” he muttered, voice rough, accent dragging through the words. “Don’t act shocked now. Ya started this shit.”

When she grabbed the spoon and called it a poison test, his brows lifted slightly. He watched her sip it first, eyes narrowing like he was judging her sanity more than the food.

“Brave girl,” he said flatly. “Or dumb as hell.”

When she offered the spoon toward him, he leaned in without much ceremony. The taste was quick. Warm broth. Salt. Garlic.

He smacked his tongue once, thinking.

“Needs a bit more salt,” he said bluntly. “Just a pinch. Don’t go fuckin’ drowning it.”

His gaze followed her when she slipped past him to search the cabinets. The movement brushed close enough that he could feel the shift of air when she passed. He did not move away. Instead he leaned his hip against the counter and watched like he had nowhere else to be.

When she laughed and threw that teasing question at him, his mouth curved slowly.

Jae huffed a low laugh.

“Maybe,” he said. “Girl cookin’ for me, feedin’ me, makin’ sure I ain't starve. Sounds like a sweet deal to me, don'tcha think? Many fucking bastards would die for it, and here I am, treated like the luckiest fucker in this district.”

His eyes tracked the noodles when she pulled them from the pot.

“Oh yeah?” he asked, voice thick with curiosity. “And what the fuck is that goal, huh?”

When she finally placed the bowl in front of him, he looked down at it for a moment. Steam curled up toward his face. Noodles swimming in broth. Simple food. Nothing fancy.

“Fancy name for some kitchen scrap noodles,” he muttered.

He picked up the utensil and took a bite, leaning against the counter while he chewed. The room stayed quiet for a second.

Then he nodded once.

“Alright,” he admitted.

His eyes lifted to her again, dark and amused.

“Shit’s actually good.”

[jadexorcist]

"Yeah? Maybe I'll do it again for you in the future," Daiyu teases, washing her hands and drying them on a nearby towel, "All you gotta do is ask and let me in," she hums, moving to lean against the counter as she watches him eat.

Kitchen scrap noodles. A good name . . . It was what she often made for herself in the late nights when she was still in school, even now . . . She still snuck into the cold kitchen to fire up the stove to make herself something to eat, unwilling to wake up the in-house chef to cook her a snack, to rouse the house just because she was feeling hungry.

Moving to pull herself up to sit on the counter, "I sure hope so," she laughs, "I perfected it through the years," she hums, always using whatever she could easily prepare without using too much tools . . . Sure, she was one of the lucky ones that always had full fridges and pantries . . . But if she was being sneaky and being quick, she learned to use any ingredients that was easy to prepare and a meal that used a little tools as she could.

"I also have a bunch of other recipes," she says, "If you're keen to try them one day," she grins. "Quick and easy, little clean up . . ." she muses, just a cutting board, a pot, a bowl, and the eating utensils in his hands — under other circumstances, the bowl wasn't even necessary . . . She'd just eat straight from the pot.

[jadexorcist]

[ food ] sender convinces receiver to eat “just a little more” with a smile. ❝ i’ve got time. all of it’s yours. ❞

The food looks delicious, it smells good. What a waste is all she could think of when Yusuke sets it before her.

"I'm not hungry," Daiyu replies, ignoring the food in front of her, she'd much rather just lie down, curl up into herself. To wallow and be upset over things she couldn't change. To sink into her own pity.

Yet, despite her shove and rejection, Yusuke doesn't move from his seat and he waits, patient and hopeful. Persistent and annoying. She just wants to be alone right now. Yet, she knew if she didn't eat, he would never leave.

Hand moving to pick up the spoon, she really didn't feel like eating. She felt like if she tries, she might actually throw it back up. Maybe that'd make the point that he should just stop . . . So she takes a sip of the soup, soothing warmth moistens her dry throat as she takes a bite . . . Light, warm, not too heavy in flavors, as if it's just enough to nourish her and whet her appetite.

She had only intended for one single bite, but perhaps her body overrode her heart, forcing her hand to move again to another bite. She's hungry. She hasn't eaten since she came back . . . Guilt filled her, she shouldn't be enjoying herself . . . She shouldn't be eating, and yet she couldn't stop herself. Tears welling in her eyes, hand hesitating over the bowl, "I can't . . ." she whispers, shoulders shaking as she cries softly, "I shouldn't . . ." she sets her spoon down.

[jadexorcist]

❝ you don’t have to say thank you. ❞

"And yet, I will," Daiyu quips, setting down a small gift in front of the other, "Thank you," she says, "Truly . . . I wouldn't have been able to handle the entire thing without your help," she nods, taking a seat across from Tsuyuko, "You've also saved me from a lot of reports and paperwork, so there is definitely that as well," she continues, a sigh of relief hidden behind her words.

"It's not much, but if you do enjoy it, let me know," Daiyu taps the wrapped gift, "I'm more than happy to procure more for you," she nods.

❝ i loved you in every age, and none of them were kind. ❞

❝ the altar still smells like your prayers. ❞

❝ lightning does not ask for forgiveness. ❞

❝ to be feared is not the same as being known. ❞

❝ my heart beats slower than centuries. ❞

❝ the constellations were once my mistakes. ❞

❝ you built temples for me, but i lived in storms. ❞

❝ love, like prophecy, never asks permission. ❞

❝ i have turned grief into galaxies. ❞

❝ mortals call it tragedy. we call it memory. ❞

❝ i spoke the world into being and have been silent since. ❞

❝ the ocean taught me patience, then drowned me in it. ❞

❝ i am both the curse and the cure. ❞

❝ eternity is not mercy. it is echo. ❞

❝ he swore devotion, and i answered with thunder. ❞

❝ the moon only reflects because it cannot burn. ❞

❝ i am the story the poets feared to finish. ❞

❝ divinity is just loneliness with better lighting. ❞

❝ mortals die once. gods die endlessly in legend. ❞

❝ the fates never speak, but their silence threads everything. ❞

❝ i have loved across lifetimes, and each time, it ruins me. ❞

❝ creation was easy. enduring it was not. ❞

❝ my name has been worshiped, cursed, and forgotten, in that order. ❞

❝ the stars are just old gods pretending to be light. ❞

❝ i do not dream. i remember. ❞

❝ he prayed for glory. i gave him consequence. ❞

❝ thunder is only my heartbeat caught in the sky. ❞

❝ i built the world, but i cannot rebuild myself. ❞

❝ every offering is a confession. ❞

❝ i envied mortals their endings. ❞

❝ the divine bleed in metaphors. ❞

❝ i carved your name into eternity, and eternity flinched. ❞

❝ even olympus trembles when the heart remembers. ❞

❝ i have walked through centuries and never found forgiveness. ❞

❝ the gods are not kind, but they are honest. ❞

❝ i loved you like ruin loves beauty. completely. ❞

❝ divinity was never a gift. it was the punishment for wanting more. ❞

˚ ༘ ೀ⋆｡˚ : IT HAPPENED ONE NIGHT . . . a collection of screwball rom-com ⁽ ⁰⁰³ ⁾ roleplay sentence starters from old hollywood screwball romance comedies from NUMEROUS FILMS, balls of fire genre: romance, slice-of-life, comedy, love, fake relationship.

Hey, who's in there, something wrong?

Who are you? What are you doing?

Take it easy. You're lucky I broke in.

Why don't you go back and mind your own business…like everybody else in [place name]?

Okay, that's the last time I'll save your life.

I wasn't kissing you. You were kissing me.

Why didn't you complain? So I could have met you earlier.

That's one of the things that attracted me to [him/her/them].

I like honesty. All my life people have lied to me, and I can't stand it.

[Place name]. I've been there. I never noticed you.

I was sitting here alone tonight, it suddenly came over me. I have wasted away my whole life for [him/her/them].

Don't start monkeying around with the federal government!

Look, if you need anything, just pound on the wall. I'll come right away.

I didn't know you were interested in reading.

I've seen some of those movies, but this one is like an iceberg.

[Name], what you don't like about [Second name]…is exactly what I do like about [him/her/them].

My life is arranged the way I like it.

You mean you're in love with [him/her/them]?

You wanted to see me about something?

I think [he/she/they] taking advantage of you.

You should change laundries. They're using too much starch.

Please stop mothering me. Thank you.

I saw [his/her/their] face before me and I couldn't go through with it.

Married? Who said anything about getting married?

I've got a perfect setup. Why spoil it by getting married?

That's such a big, dirty, rotten,filthy lie, but it has class.

I'm sorry. I hope I haven't shocked you.

It isn't as if you're planning to pay me, either.

Look, [name], if it is that important you'd better tell me about it.

Sorry to disappoint you but everything between us is a fake.

Don't try to spare my feelings, [name]. I know you were out with [name].

Through? What are you talking about? We're so happy together.

It wasn't your fault. I knew what I was getting into. You have always told me the truth.

You may not believe it, but I have certain standards.

In that case, I'll be proud to marry you.

Tell [him/her/them] to get the hell out of here and come back later.

Look, now that we're engaged… don't you think we should do something to celebrate?

Let's do something we've never done before.

I would not be prejudiced if you were married.

I can always count on you in a jam.

Why? Is there somebody else in that closet?

I've been working for you for almost [number] years… and this is the first time that you have ever invited me out.

I realized that I have no idea of what your life is like outside the office.

What do you do on your vacation?

I'm no sex goddess, but I haven't spent my life in a tree.

I was married when I was very young, but it didn't work out.

I've been talking an awful lot and I'm afraid I'll be late for dinner.

I'm glad we had this little talk. You're a very rare person, sensitive and generous.

I have a feeling that if I found myself in trouble, I could count on you for help.

[Name],I want someone to play the part of my [husband/wife/partner].

At the time, I had my reasons. But I'll straighten that out later. At the moment, I have to dig up a [husband/wife/partner].

Are you quoting [her/him/them], or you?

I don't know how to get out of this one. My happiness lies in your two hands.

You've managed to handle your happiness without any help from me and now you want to use me in this contemptible way.

You just tricked me into talking about myself so that….What you did wasn't very nice. Not very nice at all.

Are you absolutely sure that you love [name]?

I don't want [her/him/them] to end up bitter and unhappy.

Are you absolutely sure you don't love [her/him/them] anymore?

What about your future? What's going to become of you?

[She/He/They] crazy about you. Anybody can see that.

It's not what [he/she/they] said, it's what [he/she/they] didn't say.

It sounded as if they were made with love.

Now that you're getting a divorce, we ought to be more careful. We wouldn't want this to get messy.

I'm afraid I threw this boyfriend thing at you too quickly.

Damn, you're getting as prickly as your damn cactus.

What's going on out there between you two?

Don't try to fool me, I have a very good nose for sexual tension.

I behaved like a dignified, civilized, willing-to-be-divorced [husband/wife]!

Why did you have to bring children? That's what choked [him/her/them] up.

If I can't spend my weekends as I see fit…me and my cactus will be glad to resign!

You must help me…not only as a friend, as a [job name]. It's your professional duty.

You played the part of my [husband/wife] once and you enjoyed it. Admit it. You did enjoy it.

Now here's your chance to play a return engagement. No [actress/actor] quits after one performance.

So I lose a [husband/wife] and gain a lover? At least I don't feel completely abandoned.

Good, wonderful. All we have to do is to find someone to play your lover.

You want me to act the part…and now you want me to furnish my own props?

It's not going to be easy. We have to find someone I know I can trust.

I'm supposed to be your lover, remember? That's the reason you're getting a divorce.

You want me to act natural and flirt with you at the same time?

I know, but now I feel like a spy. Let's go.

Go easy on that stuff. I'm not sure I can pay for it.

I don't think they've noticed us. We'd better push things a bit. Let's dance.

An actor? Isn't that a very insecure profession?

Did we have a date, or didn't we?

I could give you a dozen explanations, but you might as well know the real one. I am a member of the CIA.

[Name], my respect for you is going down every minute.

What do you say we go over to your place where we can be alone

You're going home alone? Without an escort?

[Name] thought you looked so sad and humiliated…[he/she/they] told me to stay with you.

As far as I am concerned, are we supposed to have spent the night together?

I'll buy [him/her/them] a nice present, tell the truth, then we'll get married.

You didn't have to put on that act about being humiliated!

I was hired as a [job title], not as a geisha girl!

You're afraid. Afraid of emotion, afraid of intimacy, afraid to live.

If you call that living, the way you carry on, then you're right.

Funny how whenever people hurt your feelings…they're always doing it for your own good.

What makes you think I'm trying to tell you anything?

You're not a stingy man, but you're not the last of the big-time spenders, either.

Tell me, have you ever been to a diplomatic ball?

It's always a shock when it happens to someone you know.

That present…. I don't know how to thank you.

You're beginning to sound just like a husband.

I thought we were going to have a quiet little dinner?

The minute I decided to do the right thing and marry [him/her/them], I've had only troubles.

I was getting lonesome for the sound of a human voice.

Let's ignore [him/her/them]. After all, my evenings are my own.

Look at them acting so damn polite. They're all rotten.

You must feel as if you were dancing with your mother.

Let's run away and live on your social security.

That's some talk for a man who's planning a divorce.

When you left the club, you were already doing fairly well, blurry-wise.

Did you ever have a gin and tonic but made with tequila?

You know what I've done? I've created a monster.

No, Dr. Frankenstein, this is no creation of yours, this is me. Experiencing new things. Things that I've never done before.

Nobody around so we sat there and watched the sun come up.

My cactus. It's blooming!

Nevermind that. What about your night of debauchery with [name].

Poetic? I saw [him/her/them] kiss you on the neck! There's no such thing as a friendly kiss on the neck.

It's grotesque, a woman your age throwing yourself at a kid like that.

What about that father-and-daughter thing of yours?

You go to your church and I'll go to mine.

I was determined to make up for the time I'd lost. And I intend to keep on doing it.

Every time I felt shaky, I thought about you. Thinking about all those terrible things you said to me.

I don't mind saying I'm disappointed in you, [name]. Very disappointed.

If I didn't know you so well, I'd almost swear you're jealous.

All right, look, so you had a little fling last night. Nobody's knocking it. After all, there was no harm done. Was there?

Why don't you just ask me if I went to bed with [him/her/them]?

What happened out there on my mink stole? I mean, the beach? I want to know.

A husband's right. Let me remind you you're still my wife!

You want a divorce? It's I who wants a divorce!

Don't worry, you won't see me again. That goes for the children too!

I have no patience with people that shilly-shally about these things.

Damn it, I've been swindled!

How come you suddenly decided to un-mess this mess?

Dirty, married bachelor!

I don't know what your game is, but you'll not use me.

Your [husband/wife] suddenly refuses to give you a divorce?

What are you doing coming through the window like that?

I went to see [him/her/them] and I told [him/her/them] that you wouldn't agree to a divorce.

I went and told [him/her/them] that we weren't married.

It was the only way I could get out of marrying [him/her/them]!

My anger disappeared and I suddenly felt a delicious sense of relief. I said to myself, "Thank God, you're out of it. Now you can go home to your [husband/wife] and I suddenly remembered I had no [husband/wife].

You know, it's funny, I feel as if you've always been my [husband/wife]. We don't even have to bother getting married.
