     he feels his gut turn  c o l d ,  but makes no move to show her she’s gotten under his skin. force of habit. after a moment to collect himself, watts clears his throat again and nervously places his hand against his tie.

          “ with all due respect, your grace, the intention with spring was not originally to challenge her. she was being incredibly difficult and made it  c l e a r  that simple words were not going to be enough to convince her. as for leonardo, i admit i got ahead of myself. but my venom is nearly untraceable, and the antidote administered will mimic the effect of it being flushed from his system. ”

     ‘  but  she  knows  your  face  now ,  arthur .  it  has  become  increasingly          difficult  to  catch  her  off  guard  -  now  we  have  lost  yet  another  chance .  ‘

        eyebrows  raise ,  and  she  leans  back .  it’s  almost  casual .  

      ‘  regardless .  i’ve  made  myself  clear ?  there  have  been  far  too  many           mistakes  in  our  little  group  as  of  late .  i  am  far  from  pleased .  if  you             can’t  keep  up  -  well.  you  know  where  the  door  is .  ‘

     ‘  walking  right  in  to  a  bandit  camp  and  challenging  spring ?  brutally  poisoning        and  beating  our  best  asset ?  while  these  are  DARING  moves ,  they  leave  traces        of  you  behind .  you  need  to  be  more  careful ,  lest  you  attract  the  attention  of            those  we  don’t  want .  don’t  THINK  i  won’t  leave  you  behind.  ‘   // @prabhutv

tyriannical:

     he hisses in pain but does nothing to pull away from her. at the mention of cinder (perfect, flawless cinder, everything she wants and more, everything he can’t be) tyrian’s eyes sting with tears.

          “ i– ”  he hesitates, thinking over his words carefully.  “ thank you, your grace… ”

          ‘  now ,  then  -  i  have  a  task  for  you .  ‘  

   she  will  trick  him  no  longer .  he  does  have  a  use ,         contrary  to  what  she’d  have  him  believe .  

         ‘   i  require  information  on  the  branwen  tribe .  you  can  acquire  it ,  yes?  ‘

[salemnifer-blog]

tyriannical:

     he whimpers as she pulls him back, and he stares at her mouth to avoid meeting her eyes.  “ it–it’s not a mishap. ”  he whispers. he could be, SHOULD BE killed for speaking out of turn like this but he can’t  s t o p  himself.  “ it wouldn’t have worked. r-right? i wasn’t–right from the start. ”

     he’s  so  delightfully  shortsighted .  her  nails  dig  into  his  skin .      ‘   oh ,  tyrian .  i  thought  you  were  brighter  than  this .  of  course      it  wouldn’t  have  worked  -  it  was  not  supposed  to .  i  only  told       you  that  so  you  would  not  be  left  behind  in  cinder’s  wake .   ‘ 

[salemnifer-blog]

tyriannical:

     he chews his lip, swallows thickly. it feels like his mouth has suddenly gone dry and his stomach churns. tyrian know what he  S H O U L D  say. he should tell her yes, beg for forgiveness, but…

          “ …no. ”  he whispers, looking down.  “ no, i don’t. ”

    ‘  oh  ?  ‘ 

  a  hand  snakes  its  way  under  his  chin ,  tilting  his  gaze  back  towards  her . 

    ‘   why ?  i  have  near  every  resource  at  my  disposal .          you  can  and  will  correct  this  ...  mishap  with  my  full                 support .  don’t  you  want  that  ?  ‘

[salemnifer-blog]

tyriannical:

     his stomach flips at her question. fix it. she means to ask him if he wants to be fixed. instinctively, tyrian retreats from her touch.  “ i–i can’t fix it. ”  he says.  “ i tried already. ”

    she  shushes  him ,  removing  her  hand  shortly  thereafter .      ‘   that  isn’t  what  i  asked .  do  you  want  to  fix  this ,  tyrian ?  ‘ 

[salemnifer-blog]

tyriannical:

     he lets out a noise akin to a  p u r r  at the cold touch, leans into it. spring. not his favorite topic, but for her…

          “ whatever you need, my lady. ”

     ‘  come  now ,  i  know  you  feel  more  strongly  for  it  than        that .  ‘  she  runs  fingers  through  his  bangs ,  brushing            fingertips  across  his  forehead as  she  does  so.            ‘   don’t  you  want  to  fix  this  ?   ‘

  ‘   i  JUST  want  to  talk.   ‘   her  hand  moves  to        settle  atop  his  head .  ‘  about  spring . ‘  // @tyriannical

AMERICAN GODS SENTENCE STARTERS

episode six - a murder of gods.

❝ you saved me. thank you. ❞

❝ you already know my name. ❞

❝ what are they ? ❞

❝ oh motherfucker, you never just answer a fucking question ! ❞

❝ that’s not a question, ___ , a question would be: what do you believe you saw ? ❞

❝ i don’t know what i believe. ❞

❝ it was a warning to me, and a sacrifice to them. ❞

❝ sacrifice ? like –– like what, for –– for a god ? ❞

❝ what’s a god ? can we even know they exist ? people believe things, which means they’re real. that means we know they exist. so what came first ? gods ? or the people who believed in them ? ❞

❝ where was all this before i met you ? ❞

❝ there’s always a window. but people are frightened to look through it. it’s safer in the prison cell. ❞

❝ we’re not safe now. ❞

❝ who are you ? ❞

❝ i believe in some things. ❞

❝ your wife obviously has a temper. not used to getting her way, huh ? ❞

❝ your dearly departed has departed and i suggest we should do the same. ❞

❝ was she a ghost ? i mean, do you think you saw a ghost ? ❞

❝ you know, you’re not questioning any of this. i’m questioning everything right now. ❞

❝ i’m not so young nor so narrow to assume the dead are dead, and there’s no spectrum or spectral in between. in my experience, the dead that aren’t rarely come back without purpose. ❞

❝ her purpose was to let you go, now get in. ❞

❝ now you’ve seen who’s after us, and you know what they’re capable of. you can hang around here if you want, but i’m getting out of here. ❞

❝ fuck ! where the fuck is my car ! ❞

❝ yes, it does belong to the dead woman, i am the dead woman. where’s my fucking car ? ❞

❝ first piece of luck i’ve had in days. ❞

❝ worse things out tonight than you. ❞

❝ isn’t she lovely ? ❞

❝ i’ve done the math. this times that equals you’re a cunt, divided by the only way i’m gonna get what i need is if you give it to me equals the only way you’re gonna give it to me is if you don’t need it. ❞

❝ like my friend jesus christ, the only thing you need, ___ , is resurrection. ❞

❝ did you just name drop jesus christ like you know a guy who knows a guy ? ❞

❝ i can be very convincing. ❞

❝ is this you being convincing now ? because you suck at it. ❞

❝ i’m trying to convince you to live. real living. not whatever rot living this is. ❞

❝ why don’t you put that on your fucking scales and weigh it ? ❞

❝ what the fuck are you ? i mean, what the fuck are any of you, but first, tell me, what the fuck are you ? seriously, what the fuck are you ?! ❞

❝ please stop stealing my cab. ❞

❝ i have been traveling in the direction of mecca for days, looking for a jinn. ❞

❝ i’ll tell you where to find a whole murder of gods, demi and otherwise. every god damned one of them. ❞

❝ i know a charm that can lift grief from a grieving heart. ❞

❝ do you know a charm that can stop bleeding ? ❞

❝ i know a charm that can cure sickness and pain and a charm that can turn away the weapons of enemies. i know a charm that can heal with a touch. ❞

❝ excuse the cold hands. ❞

❝ there’s always been a god shaped hole in man’s head. trees were the first to fill it. ❞

❝ mr. wood was the trees, mr. wood was the forest. see, he was a very old god who saw something very new. he saw a god fearing society turn towards complete industrialization. so what did he do ? he sacrificed his trees, he sacrificed his forest, and he became something else. ❞

❝ well, at this stage it’s ‘we’ll see’, or, ‘time will tell’, but if it’ll rest your weary head, then yeah, it’s gone. ❞

❝ religion inspires in those who fear nothing, fear of the gods, and using that fear requires a certain element of fucked up. ❞

❝ i’m not scared of anything anymore. ❞

❝ i’m scared you’re never gonna shut that flapping hole of yours. i’m sitting here having a fucking anxiety attack because i am genuinely terrified that you are never gonna shut the fuck up. ❞

❝ did you kill ___ ? i won’t tell. ❞

❝ my name is ___. or … it was ___. i do not know what my name is now. ❞

❝ i just realized that i’m never gonna see my mother again. i’m never gonna hear her say my name again. i’m never gonna eat her cooking again. ❞

❝ are you dead ? ❞

❝ this is my afterlife, ___. ❞

❝ did you pray for another life ? ❞

❝ i do not pray to ask god for things. i pray to thank god, for bringing me where i am. to this time, to this place, where i finally know what i must do in this life. ❞

❝ i pray i find ___. he is my afterlife. i knew him. we knew each other. and now i wish to know more. ❞

❝ people will defend the warm safe feeling their america gives them. they will defend it with bullets. ❞

❝ less a funeral than a celebration of a sacrifice. ❞

❝ if i know my friend, somebody got tossed into the volcano. ❞

❝ this was a human sacrifice ? ❞ 

❝ that’s him. head of the crowd. the one they flock to. ❞

❝ please, go in peace. ❞

❝ what rock did you crawl out from under ? ❞

❝ playing a little hide and seek. hiding from the proverbial them, and seeking … you. ❞

❝ i need you to believe in me. ❞

❝ i’ve heard your name on the wind. ❞

❝ we’re at war already, and we’re losing. you, me, all of us. they’re taking honey from our mouths. ❞

❝ i have no use for shame. ❞

❝ it’s easier to pass for the living in the dark, if i felt the need to pass. ❞

❝ your heart’s not beating for this life anymore, ___. this life is done. ❞

❝ that doesn’t obligate him to feel shit. ❞

❝ perhaps i misjudged the kiss. ❞

❝ death do us part, take the fucking hint. he’s gone. your man came, saw you, tasted death on your tongue, and he fucking left. ❞

❝ your kind of love, ___, is the worst kind of love of them all. you can love somebody even when you know they don’t like it. even when you know they don’t want it. ❞

❝ that’s some profound fucking knowledge for you right there, wrapped up in a quaint sexual metaphor. ❞

❝ people do tend to behave if they know they’re being watched. they like being watched. ❞

❝ somebody’s watching. somebody’s always watching. ❞

❝ what did you do to become the god of this little universe that you’ve created ? ❞

❝ you’re no stranger to sacrifice. ❞

❝ they don’t sacrifice anymore. not to me. ❞

❝ you could always sacrifice yourself. you’ve done it before. ❞

❝ you ever see a man hanged, ___ ? throat crushed, gasping for life. it’s a terrible way to find your faith. faith doesn’t have to leave the faithful dangling. ❞

❝ you are what you worship. ❞

❝ the power of fire is firepower. ❞

❝ not god, but godlike. and they believe. ❞

❝ god bless the believers. ❞

❝ i’ll make you a blade worthy of a god. ❞

❝ i know who he is, and who he’s always been. i can depend on that. ❞

❝ you’re not here at the moment. you’re distracted. i wonder why. ❞

❝ she’s out in the cold, but … she doesn’t feel it anymore. or maybe … maybe it’s all she feels, now. ❞

❝ they make blood sacrifices to you. ❞

❝ you could use a blood sacrifice. ❞

❝ you sold us out. ❞

❝ you saw what i was. i was a story people forgot to remember to tell. and they gave me a gun. they put power back in my hands. and i gotta tell you; it feels good. ❞

❝ i never needed my religion to be moral. ❞

❝ moralizing religions are materialistic ones. they all need their martyrs. ❞

❝ i’m laying down a curse. i’m cursing the whole fucking thing. ❞

❝ god is great. ❞

❝ life is great. ❞
