@ithes sent an inquiry : who can say what is true ? ━ ( lost meme. )

an intersting thought to ponder over . she had almost spoken instantly , informing the other how , in the sense of history , it was those who bore witness to events that spoke the truth . yet many would twist and turn those into fabricated truths , only to better themselves or the situation at hand . humankind was plagued with liars . even she could not deny that she had used this uniting trait many a time throughout her life .

❛ define the truth . ❜ countering their own question . still not making eye contact for she continued to dive into her thoughts , swimming within them . who spoke the truth ? could she name anyone ? ❛ what one would define as the truth might be viewed as a lie by another . it's all about perspective and whose it is . what i might believe to be true might be heresy in your eyes . ❜

' just because something seems impossible doesn't mean it's untrue. ' re: @ithes

the two walk down the florescent - lit hallway, victor's arms heavy with a stack of books: great expectations , by the looks of it. mina's footsteps fall in sync with the timing of her pulse ( a habit she's acutely aware of but has never tried to fix ). " it is impossible and therefore untrue, since there is no way alice ripley's mum is ever going to sign the overnight forms, not if i'm the one handing them to her ... "

her own arms struggle with a box full of monday mornings exams. shoulders move and muscles strain in an attempt to lightened the load. it does nothing. " which is why i am asking such a huge favor. she likes you. or, she at least tolerates you. and that's all i need to get alice into the museum. " the hall is noticably devoid of children's laughter, instead echoing their footsteps and the jingle of mina's lanyard. " if you do this for me, i'll buy you coffee for a whole week. or drinks, if that's more to your liking. just say yes. "

@ithes uttered : none of this makes any sense.

A  god  in  miniature  ;  Pharoah  of  nothing,  grasping  at  shadows  of  greater  kings  on  the  wall.  Diaochan's  mismatched  eyes  turn  to  them,  face  formed  into  serene  derision  at  the  admittance  of  ignorance.  In  her  inward  arena  :  a  chorus  of  laughter.

She  smiles,  guessing  her  way  through  the  motions  of  a  nice,  polite  girl,  a  naive  innocence  without  the  stain  of  ulterior  motives.  How  did  the  saying  go,  again?  You  catch  more  flies  with  honey  than  vinegar?  And  they  had  the  stench  of  a  corpse  about  them;  should  luck  have  it,  she  may  find  a  few  maggots  of  a  beginning.

❝Which  part  makes  the  least  sense?  Let's  start  there.❞

something curious , something strange . a stroke of genius , brilliance acute and present . she had been watching him , catching glimpses through the shelves . a mere curiousity , taken notice of his presence . a quiet whisper , a gentle lullaby within library walls . peaceful aura .

❛ you like the classics too ? ❜ peaceful conversation , a simple notice of the books he held . gentle smile adorned her features , pleased to meet another with refined taste . ❛ what's your favourite piece of literature ? ❜ / @ithes sc.

@ithes gets a sentence meme starter !

“ if you’re knocking on my door, i can only imagine it means you’re here to collect. and by your demeanour, it’s one hell of a favor you’ll be asking, too. ”

@ithes​ asked:  ❛ I had to see it for myself. ❜ [ queen of the damned (2002) sentence starters ] 

I was hoping you would. Lips part to reveal a toothy grin, “Like any good scientist, I’m sure,” Morgan replies with a twinge of amusement in the sound of her voice, “Don’t think I couldn’t sense you tailing me from a block and a half away. Shame on you, following a young woman around in the dark like some maniac. This city, crowded and  busy as it can get around this time of night, is a maze despite it’s citizens scurrying around to the same old song and dance routine they need in order to give their lives structure; like lab rats in a Pavlovian experiment. Well, now that you have seen what magic can do first-hand, what do you have to say for yourself, Dr. Frankenstein?”

@ithes​ asked:  ❛ knowledge is power. ❜ [ 200 random dialogue prompts ]

“Magic is power, too,” the witch retorts. Dear God, I’m turning into my father, she thought to herself, “There is still so much you have to learn about those whom you are choosing to rub elbows and clink glasses with, Victor. Many of them covet just as many secrets as either you, or myself for that matter. What they do in the dark hardly pales in comparison to the image they choose to project to the world around them. Unfortunately for them, there are other people like me who enjoy dabbling in the art of learning such secrets. Think of us and our methods as a vaccine; what we do will benefit the rich and powerful for the long haul, but not without a little ill-fated side effects  first.”

` — “ i know tons of things i shouldn’t know. “

trust  the  vampire  to  pour  over  ancient  texts  and  tomes.    she  hunches  now  over  the  long  table,    one  long  sharpened  nail  slicing  down  each  page  as  she  simultaneously  reads  and  translates  silently.    as  she  does  so,    her  mouth  moves  nearly  imperceptibly  to  the  human  eye,    though  they  might  catch  that  quick  dart  of  her  gaze.    anya’s  features  might  appear  ghastly  if  she  were  not  beautiful,    but  as  it  were,    the  cool  winter  light  which  filters  into  her  office  gives  her  a  ghoulish  glow  that  is  inexplicably  lovely.

❝    where  did  you  say  you  found  this?    ❞  finally,    she  speaks.    she  reads  still,    but  her  voice  lifts.    for  a  moment,    her  tone  betrays  her.    something  that  she  finds  has  caught  her  by  the  throat.    rather  suddenly  she  shuts  the  book,    though  her  finger  remains  bookmarked  where  she’d  left  off,    and  looks  to  them  with  a  furrowed  brow.    @ithes  had  not  said,    but  she  gives  them  the  opportunity  to  right  the  wrong  in  not  telling  her.    ❝    if  you  know  as  much  as  you  say,    you  will  tell  me  this.    ❞
