“Is nothing sacred anymore?”

SENTENCE MEME ⟶ THE WITCHER / 1.06

With everything Travis said and seeing Ronnie, she knew she’d be tearing them apart for the sake of her own rage and grief. It’s nothing Adrian would have wanted out of her, and not what he meant when he asked her to take care of herself. But the alternative was unbearable.

He didn’t move, and he wasn’t the same in so many ways. He felt cold to the touch; he was never cold. However, it was the only way he was now, and it was how she could still see him. Running her fingers down his chest, she inhaled sharply. “I’m losing my mind, Adrian,” she confided softly as though he would answer. “I can’t face the world without you in it, and I can’t destroy the world without becoming the very thing you died to stop. But you didn’t leave me with a lot of choices...you just left me. I’m not okay with that. I’ll never be okay with that...I’m not okay...I’m not okay...” Laying her head down on his chest, she began to weep. She clung to him like if she wept hard enough he would wake up and hold her. 

“Is nothing sacred anymore?” Kol interrupted in his usual fashion.

Jolting at the sudden disturbance, she pulled herself together and wiped her tears away. There was one thing she still had control over. “Did no one tell you to wait for me?” Of course they had.

Rising to her feet, she joined him and motioned for him to follow. “Oh, Leonardo,” she called, as he was forced beneath her feet on his knees. “It’s your turn. You were part of the worst day of my life, keeping me from saving the only person I’ve ever loved, so let me teach you a lesson in empathy that might have spared you. You remember Kol, don’t you? From the worst day of your life?” Taking him by the jaw, her eyes shifted into an endless black with irises of crimson. “This is part one. I will break you, and then I will set an endless punishment for you when you can take no more. And not a moment before. Here, you can exist without a heart, and since you don’t use yours, I’ll take it.”

She then turned to Kol, “set it on that platter when you’re finished, and whatever you remember from before, please remind him that we are not merciful.”

“You were not the person I expected to come for the women,” Hades observed, a hint of an amused chuckle barely escaping him. “Leonardo will be terribly disappointed to have missed you, but I’m sure there will be other times.”

“after all these years, is this the kind of hello you give an old friend?”

“Of course not,” he replied, his manner shifting into a more pleasant one. 

“Kol, help us,” Tabs dared to speak up, “sock him in the jaw and let’s get out of here!”

“You have some knowledge of importance to me,” Hades continued as if she hadn’t spoke at all. “I know my wife had asked you to look into a certain issue we’ve been facing a number of years. Let us share a meal together and discuss.” He beckoned him to join him. "I do hope we can put some of our unpleasantries behind us and work together for a better future. For your siren and…for your son.” His tone implied simultaneously a friendly air and a reminder that if he were here for revenge of any sort, he would come to regret it.

“so, this is what heroes do on their days off.”

DISNEY’S HERCULES SENTENCE STARTERS

Many immortals were patient, due to having endless amounts of time. They were hardly in any rush. Somehow, this trait skipped over Kol entirely because she had rarely see him show much patience at all. Case and point: the regret she felt over the permission he had to enter the house unannounced. 

She had just switched their positions to go for a little ride, when her moan shifted into a startled sound as the door swung open. Lucky for the modesty she didn’t really possess (and other things), her boyfriend’s curse came with some speed, and she was off and covered before she could finish yelling, “fuck, Kol! Knock on a damn door!”

“so, this is what heroes do on their days off.” Kol seemed a little too pleased with himself. He would have been one of those kids that would have had a magnifying glass pointed at ants if he grew up in a more modern era, taking too much delight in others’ squirming.

“Not anymore,” she grumbled. Dressing quickly, she turned back to Kol, “I assume you have something important for me that couldn’t possibly wait why you taunted some people downstairs?”

Though he seemed to enjoy Adrian’s misfortune more than her own, he seemed eager to speak about what he found. Finally, he had decided he wanted to be useful right this second. However, he was the Kemiya expert, so she had to hear him out on his timetable. Men.

“You can go see to the pack,” she told Adrian, but unsurprisingly, due to either mistrust of Kol or knowledge he might have something important that Seph would keep from the group or both, he didn’t move. “Alright, well, tell us both then.”

The dagger, it turned out, wasn’t ever normal…or at least hadn’t been for some time. The banishment spell was placed on top of something. “So you’re telling me they put carpet on perfectly good hardwood floors? In theory, you’re saying the dagger should do something by itself. What does it do then?”

That, it seemed, was still a mystery.

Loving and fighting. Accusing, united. I can’t imagine a world with you gone. The joy and the chaos, the demons we’re made of, I’d be so lost if you left me alone. You locked yourself in the bathroom, lying on the floor when I break through. I pull you in to feel your heartbeat. Can you hear me screaming “ please don’t leave me ” ?

❝ i don’t want anything to do with you. ❞ (For Hades bc he still pissed lol)

a list of don’t sentence starters

It wasn’t hard to draw Kol to the library, after all, the Old One had been a little disturbed about their previous encounter. To take over another’s body was fairly unpleasant business and even temporary death for an immortal isn’t ideal. Until he could step outside the confines of these walls, his methods were limited. This would have to be ultimately understood.

“My wife spoke highly of your knowledge of Kemiya,” he began, owing Kol enough respect to get to the ask without unnecessary small talk, “I need to have you examine a certain dagger. I’m interested in your take on it.”

❝ i don’t want anything to do with you. ❞

“Now, now, let’s not be hasty in saying things we do not mean,” he chided, “it was important, urgent even, I speak with my wife and queen. I am someone, much like yourself, who likes things on his own terms. I needed a dead body, yours was convenient. Next time, I assure you, I’ll make one of another instead. I’m used to more loyal followers than I have found among my wife’s friends, but I’m not quite offended…yet. You have a right to be angry, of course.

“However, let’s stay on the matter at hand. There are sides to be had here, somewhere between now and a handful of decades. I trust you’ll want to be on the right one when the time arrives. My good mood is rapidly souring, so I’ll extend you some time to think on it. If I do this without you, I’ll consider your side chosen. Are we clear?”

“Believe me, it’s hard to resist.”

Wicked … sentence starters

“Gamall Einn, let me see your eyes,” she greeted, checking before she began blathering away to her dead husband again. However, Kol did not seem to appreciate it, still fuming over the last time. “I’ve been to see him myself, that should spare you further trouble for now,” she attempted to reassure. 

He didn’t look comforted, radiating with his justifiable fury. “I’ll be going away for the weekend,” she announced, bringing a hand to his arm to hold his attention. She needed his focus on her words. “I can trust you to keep things together while I take a brief retreat. I’ll never hear the end of it if we return to things on fire.”

“Believe me, it’s hard to resist.”

“Of course it is,” she acknowledged. No one liked having their body invaded, especially not Kol who took so much pride in being himself. However, he was wise, and in that wisdom, she could trust him with this task. 

“But you, above all, know whom to fear,” she reminded, “so with your own eyes, be mine. Make sure the younger ones don’t get reckless. I want this world exactly as I leave it, shouldn’t be hard for you.”

❛ The best and worst things happen in the shadows. ❜

* (  𝐂𝐇𝐈𝐋𝐋𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐀𝐃𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐓𝐔𝐑𝐄𝐒 𝐎𝐅 𝐒𝐀𝐁𝐑𝐈𝐍𝐀 /  𝐒𝐄𝐍𝐓𝐄𝐍𝐂𝐄 𝐏𝐑𝐎𝐌𝐏𝐓𝐒.

Leaving Adrian to his thoughts, she knew he needed a minute to process before she went ahead and did it. However, other plans were in store for them both tonight. Spotting Kol with a ‘friend’ in an alleyway, she waited until he was finished to check on him.

“Clean that up when you’re done,” she teased, “we don’t need the eyes right now.” As the body fell, she noticed a shift in his posture as a chill shot through the air.

 ❛ The best and worst things happen in the shadows. ❜

She was right. It was coming through the rest because the same echo existed in those words. “I’m on my way to fix it,” she assured him, knowing he would not take it in the stride George or Bonnie did.

“Then fix it,” the voice replied, as he finally turned around to look at her. But they weren’t his eyes, they were hollow and empty of only a smoky black void.

“Hades…”

Kol’s mouth twisted into a smile not his own. “I apologize for the extreme measures, wife, but do know I’ve hidden nothing from you.”

“You said George was free.”

“And he is. As free as ever. He was only momentarily borrowed but most certainly given right back.”

“Stop it.”

“As you wish, my beloved queen, as soon as I am done.”

“Done with what?”

Shaking Kol’s head, he denied her that answer for a moment as he held her gaze. There was no expression there, a side-effect of the takeover, but she was lost there regardless. Thousands of years together, she knew the look that should have been there. 

“If not for the wolf…?” He prompted.

“…there’d never have been anyone else,” she finished solemnly.

“And between us?”

“You’re not in the same league.”

A full-bodied laugh sounded from him, enough to send a chill through any other body but hers. It was dark, amused, and long. “Ah, my darling, you are pitiless,” he commended. Even in a slight against himself, he found in her everything he’d ever desired. Her disdain had rarely caused him grief because he knew one unmovable fact. “I suppose I will stay the course and wait him out after all.”

“I won’t let you harm him to get your way,” she reminded.

With another chuckle, he offered a reminder in return, “I don’t need to. With all of the enemies between every member of this pack, he will be lucky to survive the next decade. However, should he be so lucky as he has so far proven to be, what is another seventy years at most with the centuries I have already waited?” He brought Kol’s hand up to caress her cheek. “As one by one your mortals leave you, I will be ever patient. When the last one succumbs, you will find yourself grateful for the solution I find us now. Live your life as I vowed you should be allowed, and then when the day comes, we will close the loophole I have designed together and be once again what we were.”

As he brought borrowed lips to her forehead, she felt an overwhelming sense of numbness throughout her body as the plan was laid out before her. This was all a game right now. He was gathering strength, forces, for the day of her greatest heartbreak.

“I’ll be nearby,” he promised, “please take your Old One back with my assurance of good faith toward you and your friends. Because when it all comes to an end, what is yours is mine and what is mine has always been yours.”

“Goodbye,” she murmured.

“For now.” And with those words, the darkness left Kol’s eyes and he collapsed lifeless in her arms. Sinking down to the ground next to the body of his victim, she held him in her lap until he revived.

❛ So, what’d I miss? ❜ (Deniz for Connor, casually interrupting convos lol)

* (  𝐋𝐄𝐆𝐀𝐂𝐈𝐄𝐒 𝟏𝐗𝟎𝟐 /  𝐒𝐄𝐍𝐓𝐄𝐍𝐂𝐄 𝐏𝐑𝐎𝐌𝐏𝐓𝐒.

The Bennett-Sims house was the only place he could be fully relaxed and himself…well, it was supposed to be. Reviewing a few books found among the bodies of Aurora’s followers, the pack wanted to be sure there was truly no threat left this time. That was supposed to be the afternoon.

“These books give me bad feelings,” he said as he sat another one he’d finished down on the table. As usual, he had no proof, only the gut feeling that they were missing something. “maybe it’s all the crap they put us through, but–”

❛ So, what’d I miss? ❜

“The part where you weren’t invited,” Connor snapped back without missing a beat. It was instinct with that egotistical moron, but he knew as soon as he said it and Deniz got a look that there had been an invitation. Shooting a look at Aubrey, she had ‘culprit’ written all over her.

“You’ve got to be freakin’ kidding me,” he muttered, “this is coven work–this is our shit.” With a sigh, he couldn’t really ever be mad at Aubrey, even when she was making stupid decision after stupid decision with Deniz.

He relented as he shut all the books with a wave of his hand, “guess we’ll do something else.” He wasn’t letting that dick anywhere near those books, common enemy or not. “How about target practice?” He suggested, looking over at Deniz, “you be the target, and I’ll practice…”

[originalxconceit]

Honestly, Deniz loves hanging around Aubrey’s pack and family. Mostly because he takes immense pleasure in their disdain toward him and pushes their buttons with so little effort lol.
