INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE (1994) SENTENCE STARTERS

❛ So you want me to tell you the story of my life. ❜

❛ What were you going to do? Kill me, drink my blood? ❜

❛ I'm flesh and blood, but not human. I haven't been human for 200 years. ❜

❛ I couldn't bear the pain of their loss. I longed to be released from it. ❜

❛ You lack the courage of your convictions. Do it! ❜

❛ Don't be afraid. I'm going to give you the choice l never had. ❜

❛ Your body's dying. Pay no attention. It happens to us all. ❜

❛ No words can describe it. Might as well ask Heaven what it sees. No human can know. ❜

❛ You'll get used to killing. Just forget about that mortal coil. You'll become accustomed to it, all too quickly. ❜

❛ There's nothing in the world now that doesn't hold some...Fascination. ❜

❛ The dark gift is different for each of us. But one thing is true of everyone. We grow stronger as we go along. ❜

❛ That's more like it! Anger! Fury! ❜

❛ Remember: Life without me would be even more unbearable. ❜

❛ You must know something about the meaning of it all. ❜

❛ They know about us. They watch us dine on empty plates and drink from empty glasses. ❜

❛ Forgive me if I have a lingering respect for life. ❜

❛ Perfect! Just burn the place! Burn everything we own! Have us living in a field, like cattle! ❜

❛ What if there is no Hell? Or they don't want us there? Ever think of that? ❜

❛ You're in love with your mortal nature. You resist what can bring you peace. ❜

❛ We're predators, whose all-seeing eyes give them detachment! ❜

❛ It's your coffin, enjoy it. Most of us never get to know what it feels like. ❜

❛ Kill them swiftly if you will, but do it! For do not doubt you are a killer! ❜

❛ My philosopher. My martyr. "Never take a human life.” ❜

❛ Pain is terrible for you. You feel it like no other creature, because you're a vampire. ❜

❛ Evil is a point of view. God kills indiscriminately, and so shall we. ❜

❛ A little child, she was. But also a fierce killer, now capable of the ruthless pursuit of blood with all a child's demanding. ❜

❛ Remember, never in our home! ❜

❛ Time can pass quickly for mortals when they're happy. With us, it was the same. The years flew by like minutes. ❜

❛ More melancholy nonsense. You grow more like [name] daily! ❜

❛ Do you want me to be a doll forever? ❜

❛ Can't I change like everyone else? ❜

❛ Be glad I made you what you are. You'd be dead now if I hadn't. ❜

❛ You will never grow old. And you will never die. ❜

❛ I thought of all the things I'd done and couldn't undo. And I longed for one second's peace. ❜

❛ He will never let us go. ❜

❛ What is it now? You irritate me. Your very presence irritates me! ❜

❛ Is that supposed to frighten me? ❜

❛ I came to make peace with you. Even though you're the father of lies. I want things to be as they were. ❜

❛ Why do you say such things? ❜

❛ I promise I'll get rid of the bodies. ❜

❛ We forgive each other then? ❜

❛ Good night, sweet prince. May flights of devils wing you to your rest. ❜

❛ Should we burn him? Bury him? What would he have liked? ❜

❛ You've been a very, very naughty little girl. ❜

❛ We deserve your vengeance. ❜

❛ For what could the damned really have to say to the damned? ❜

❛ There are no vampires in Transylvania? No Count Dracula? ❜

❛ I've searched the world for an immortal and this is what I find! ❜

❛ No one will harm you. I won't allow it. ❜

❛ Vampires who pretend to be humans pretending to be vampires. How avant-garde. ❜

❛ Do you know what it means to be loved by Death? ❜

❛ You die when you kill. You feel you deserve to die and you stint on nothing. ❜

❛ But perhaps...this is the only real evil left. ❜

❛ I know nothing of God. Or the Devil. I have never seen a vision, nor learned a secret that would damn or save my soul. ❜

❛ You fear too much. So much you make me fear. ❜

❛ There is but one crime among us vampires here. It is the crime that means death to any vampire: To kill your own kind. ❜

❛ Danger holds you to me. ❜

❛ Love holds you to me. ❜

❛ You would leave me for [name] if he beckoned you. ❜

❛ Is that what I should do? Let you go? ❜

❛ If you want to save her, send her away! ❜

❛ The world changes. We do not. Therein lies the irony that finally kills us. ❜

❛ I need you to make contact with this age. ❜

❛ A vampire with a human soul. An immortal with a mortal's passion. ❜

❛ You are beautiful, my friend. [name] must have wept when he made you. ❜

❛ I knew him. Knew him well enough not to mourn his passing. ❜

❛ Your evil is that you cannot be evil! And I shall suffer for it no longer! ❜

❛ I haven't tears enough for what you've done to me! ❜

❛ Oh, God! I love you still! That's the torment of it! ❜

❛ Who'll care for me, my love, my dark angel, when you are gone? ❜

❛ Bear me no ill will, my love. We are now even. ❜

❛ What has died is the last breath in me that was human. ❜

❛ Your only company will be your screams. ❜

❛ Maybe it was to quench those tears forever that I took such revenge. ❜

❛ You can teach me this? To be without regret? ❜

❛ What if all I have is my suffering? My regret? ❜

❛ I know you regret nothing. You feel nothing. If that's all I have left to learn, I can do that on my own. ❜

❛ You've come home to me then? ❜

❛ I'm a spirit of preternatural flesh. Detached. Unchangeable. Empty. ❜

❛ That's it? No, it can't end like that. ❜

❛ What I wouldn't give to be like you, to have your power, to have seen the things you have seen. ❜

❛ You want a companion. You want a link to the outside world. That's me. Take me.❜

❛ Do you like this? Do you like being food for the immortals? Do you like dying? ❜

❛ I assume I need no introduction. ❜

❛ Still whining. Heard enough? I've had to listen to that for centuries. ❜

i do think of you. all the time. (bucky from natasha)

"I don't know whether I'm glad, or worried for that," he sighed, shaking his head as blue eyes traced Natasha's features.

"You should find someone worth your time to think of....to focus on. You could find someone so much better."

@audaxbellator

[marvelsmusings]

the last thing i want is to hurt you. - to Bucky

"There was a time I wouldn't have believed that, but I know that now," Bucky promised, a sigh on his lips.

"It doesn't make it easy to move forward, but I get it. Thank you though...for the reassurance. It means a lot."

[marvelsmusings]

is this a date? - Elliot to Steve @curseoffrell

"I mean....do you want it to be?" Steve questioned.

"I want to know what you think, and what you'd like," he promised. It wasn't that he hadn't thought of it as a date of course, but he didn't want to make Elliot uncomfortable.

"I kind of hoped it was."

[colinjfarrellss-deactivated2017]

[marvelsmusings]

it's unfair to expect that of me. - to Matt

"Unfair to expect what? You're the only person that needs to know the truth, Q. I mean, I know I'm asking you to lie....but you know Foggy. You know the hell he'd give me if he knew I was daredevil," the brunette sighed, absently reaching for the other to tangle his fingers into the hem of his shirt like if he didn't anchor himself to him, he might drown.

PROMPTS FOR BEST FRIENDS TO LOVERS *  assorted dialogue, adjust as necessary

have you ever thought of me that way?

did that kiss mean anything to you?

is this a date?

friends don't look at each other like we do.

i never realized i could love someone this much.

i've been meaning to tell you for years.

how long have you loved me?

you'll never know a single day without me by your side.

maybe we could go together instead. as a couple.

they always said we'd probably get married someday.

nothing has changed. you're still my best friend.

i'm glad we grew into what we are today.

i guess i never realized how beautiful you are.

you've always been there for me, no matter what.

they're all going to freak out when they realize we're finally together.

it was always you, you know. i just didn't realize it.

i think i've been in love with you for years.

ever since we were kids, we were inseparable. especially now.

i didn't understand it back then, but now i realize you were always the one for me.

you're my best friend. that's never going to change, no matter what happens between us.

the last thing i want is to hurt you.

i don't think we're "just friends" anymore.

maybe we could... try? try to be something more than this?

i don't want to lose our friendship, no matter what. that has to stay the same through this.

i've always cared about you. and i think in a way, i've always loved you, too.

it's been difficult to see you date other people along the way.

wish i'd told you how i felt sooner.

what do you think about... us?

should we hold hands?

why are you looking at me like that?

you've been my best friend for years now. that will never change.

do you remember when i kissed you?

maybe we were always meant to be together in some way.

you've always been the most important person in my life.

maybe we could... you know. see what happens between us. take this further.

could you ever see me in that way? like a lover?

this is a little awkward. i'm not sure what to do here.

when did you start feeling this way about me?

you just mean so much to me. i don't want to ruin our friendship.

when you held my hand... everything changed.

i stopped seeing you as just a friend and started seeing you as something more.

it broke me to see you kiss them.

i couldn't stand it when you loved other people.

we were inseparable back then. we can be inseparable now.

i made a promise to you when we were kids. and i'm keeping that promise.

this is where you kissed me.

can i hold your hand?

you don't have a date, and i don't have a date... so let's go together.

it feels like i'm looking at you with new eyes.

i didn't realize you were so beautiful.

you mean the world to me, you know.

i don't ever want to know a world without you.

maybe we could go as a couple. not just as friends.

if i asked you on a date sometime... would you say yes, or would you laugh in my face?

could you ever see me as something more than your best friend?

i do think of you. all the time.

i didn't really realize what you meant to me until i nearly lost you.

so... friends? or something more than friends?

whatever happens, you won't leave me, right?

we will never be apart. not ever.

how long have you felt like this?

[mcflymemes]

"WHAT ELSE DO YOU WANT FROM ME?" PROMPTS *  assorted dialogue, adjust as necessary

what else do you want from me?

i've done everything i can.

there's nothing more to be done.

i'm not done with you.

i tried, and nothing worked.

haven't i given you enough?

i think i've done enough to help.

you take and you take and you never give.

i've done more than enough for you.

that's all i can do.

i have nothing more to give you.

you don't deserve anything more.

you never thanked me.

i can't do this alone.

haven't i done enough?

i need you to be here.

you've done more harm than good.

that's it, then. there's nothing left.

we tried our best.

i can't offer anything else.

i can't give you what you need.

you expect too much from me.

i was never good enough for you.

i can't fulfill the perfect vision in your head.

i'll never be what you truly want.

you set unrealistic expectations.

i'll never be enough for you.

you want me to be something i'm not.

do you truly think so little of me?

you know i can't do that.

that's all i have to give.

it's unfair to expect that of me.

you never loved me. you loved the idea of me.

i have nothing more to say to you.

i have give you everything, and this is how you repay me?

you'll never be satisfied.

i thought you were better than this.

i knew i could never live up to your expectations.

is this what you want from me?

to you, i'm just a failure.

i'm sorry i can't be what you wanted.

that's never going to happen.

you're delusional if you think i'll do that.

sorry to disappoint.

i thought you were better than that.

"Steve? Can I have a hug?"

"What's going on? You don't ever have to ask.... come here," he breathed, brows furrowed. He hated seeing her upset.

@ghostofwinter

[marvelsmusings]

"I just know that no one deserves to feel bad because of others actions. Get some sleep Anika. I'll be here when you wake up." He wouldn't even get out of bed. He wanted to make sure she wasn't alone right now.

"I think everyone feels that way sometimes," he muttered into the darkness, his hand rubbing soothing circles on her back.

"I know I do. When I get that way, I have to remind myself that there's only one me....ans some days are gonna be better than others, but no one else can be a better you. You're amazing, and you deserve more grace than you're allowing yourself."
