Hi, everyone! It’s Admin Jane. As discussed in the chat, here’s a starter meme designed for this latest event (but feel free to use it whenever!), pulled from my bookshelves & gotham. This is entirely optional, and is only being tagged for the task and event so it gets seen more widely. (credits: carry on, rainbow rowell; sandry’s book, tamora pierce; the titan’s curse, rick riordan; the school for good and evil, soman chainani; gotham season 4). There are a few actions provided towards the bottom, though I suggest using those to spark plotting/alongside plotting, as they’re a little less specific than the sentences.
“Do it. Fucking unleash. Now.”
“You have the worst survival instincts.”
“I’m no soldier. Don’t see why I should have to fight for a living just because I can throw a punch.”
“Looks like I should be asking you that question…”
“I’m not my sister’s keeper.”
“Why are you already weeping? You’re ruining my plan to push you to tears.”
“He’s going to kill you.”
“They just want power, and they want it now.”
“We all make sacrifices at wartime.”
“We can’t just stop living because we’re at war.”
“When have you ever hurt anyone but yourself?”
“Look, if you’re a target, then I’m the most at risk. I spend the most time with you.”
“[Fuck him,] he’ll do whatever he can to get to me.”
“Can’t be too picky with cannon fodder.”
“I’m not your sidekick, I’m your dread companion.”
“To think you used to be at each other’s throats.”
“We’re still at each other’s throats.”
“He’s tried to kill me three times! That I know of! It doesn’t actually matter whether it worked.”
“He hated me before he even met me.”
“Now you tell me what you’re up to.”
“Stop it. Stop distracting me.”
“Magic didn’t help them.”
“Stake through the heart? Beheading, perhaps?”
“Do something. Save the day, [name]. Or the night.”
“Quick, before I … Hmm … what horrible thing shall I do?”
“It’s too late for everyone down here—there’s just you to hurt, isn’t there?”
“Really? That’s your plan? Wait for me to kill someone?”
“Safety, stability—it’s an illusion. It’s a false god, [name]. It’s clinging to a sinking raft instead of learning to swim.”
“It takes more than magic to make a mage.”
“What’s wrong with you? He’s a monster. An actual monster.”
“I’m more valuable as a spy than a soldier anyway.”
“I’m gonna have to face him.”
“Are you worried about him?”
“I’m sorry—should we try to find him?”
“You always say that. But when it’s us or them, you want me to kill something.”
“I never want you to kill.”
“I never feel like I have a choice.”
“You look like shit, you know.”
“You’re looking rough and weedy yourself.”
“What’s wrong? Cat got your tongue?”
“Spit it out. You’d think you were trying to cast a spell. Are you? Next time, use your wand, it helps.”
“Your mum would make a terrifying supervillain.”
“He’s got more fire than a demon.”
“You don’t want to hurt me.”
“It’s always about you around here.”
“You would have killed her.”
“I’m thinking violent thoughts at you constantly.”
“We’re already tearing each other apart”
“We are supposed to know better.”
“Too afraid for a real fight—”
“You will die the worst death I can invent.”
“She is either crazy, or the bravest person I’ve ever met.”
“I had to help. He’s one of us.”
“Stop that! How dare you!”
“None of that! You do your own fighting!”
“Stop right now! I—I command it! Please?”
“Here—in came someone else gets ideas.”
“C’mon, this’s no time to worry about an ouch!”
“It wasn’t so bad. Nobody was killed.”
“You’ll answer for what you’ve done!”
“You half-killed my boy!”
“He deserved a worse thrashing than he got!”
“I woulda swore you didn’t have a scared bone in your body.”
“You have no right to interfere. This is a family matter.”
“Not much of a challenge.”
“So you’re another coward.”
“Do not. We must fight them.”
“All we need is your help.”
“I don’t know you any more.”
“Please. Don’t make me… Don’t make him destroy you.”
“It wouldn’t be the worst thing in the world to die fighting with friends like this.”
“You don’t know what you’re asking.”
“You will not last so long.”
“You never could beat me.”
“We’ll see, my old friend.”
“You fight well for a girl. But you are no match for me.”
“He’s a traitor. A traitor!”
“Life is a fragile thing.”
“You know, I don’t think this look suits you.”
“You promised you’d change!”
“Well. We both made promises we won’t keep.”
“You wanted me to be the evil one.”
“We’re coming to help you!”
“Kill you? You think I can kill you?”
“Truth is, I want to hurt you. But I just can’t.”
“You pushed me through a window!”
“But now we’ll end all of this, won’t we?”
“I won’t let them hurt you.”
“No! Wait! You have to believe me! I’m on your side!”
“In the end, good always wins.”
“You’ll never have her. Not as long as I’m alive.”
“Bad news, baby. I’m not leaving.”
“For her sake, you’re gonna die. For my sake, you’re gonna suffer.”
“Why do you keep insisting I’m insane? What’s insane about having a backup plan?”
“I’m going to be here whenever you need me.”
“If I wanted you dead, you’d be dead.”
“I’m so sick of that freaky family.”
“It’s the ones closest to you that you have to keep your eyes on.”
“I can’t believe you’re going to run away from these asses.”
“You sad, deluded woman. You are nothing.”
“Standing up to terror is the only way to take its power away.”
“He scares the living hell out of me.”
“If I ever see you again, I’ll pop your head off like a flower.”
“You’re weak. You’re all so damn weak.”
“Not everything is your fault or your responsibility. Get over yourself. It’d make you a little easier to be around.”
“Look what she did to me. I’ll pull the trigger on that bitch myself.”
“The only thing I’m choking on is your insanity.”
“You are living in a prison of your own construction.”
“I’m glad I never killed you.”
“Don’t thank me. Killing you would have been a kindness.”
“We’ve got a war to stop, people.”
“Despite appearances, I’m not an animal.”
“We don’t need heroes, we need people to do what is necessary.”
“A general does not need to know every foot soldier.”
“I may be many things, but I’m not a coward.”
“You have fight, kid. I’ve always admired that in you.”
