OC ask game
thank you @the-letterbox-archives for the tag. this seems like a fun game, the rule is to share 15 or less lines of dialogue from a character to showcase their personality.
Let's do Erik from the Tunnel Apparati Diaries! He is one of our favorite people. These lines come from all three books, so you'll have to read them all to get the contexts.
“Oh, ʔashwin, you have an accent, too. A pretty thick one.”
“So, we’re all trans here, right? Transgender? That doesn’t mean we have to have dysphoria. I don’t, for instance. I just know I’m not a girl, I’m a man, but I still like skirts and sparkles and shit.”
"We can do reality checks as we need, to see if we’re all experiencing the same thing, having a shared hallucination or something. Particularly when I’m having an episode. But when someone talks about their own identity and personal reality, we take them at their word. As mad trans people, it’s ridiculous for us not to."
“When the Murmuration shows up, act like this at them for me, OK? Give them a taste!”
“Our planet’s cultures need to be disrupted,”
“Are you talking about the government or the sea?”
“So, it’s supervillainy, then! I can get behind that!”
“Oh, right. I’ve read of some who have billions. Like a whole planet. Or even a whole universe in there. Nobody believes them, but I do. Like, why not? It’s against my religion not to believe them.”
"Please. That’s like telling me, ‘Erik, you get to be a living meme’!”
“Do you have any idea how many systems call themselves the Collective?”
"Hello. First time?"
“I been up here the whole time. I think it was one of the other Eriks down there, yelling and screaming at Beau. He should be doing time, not you.”
“Neat. I like hearing that. I’ve never met anyone else who sees that particular hallucination."
“You seem to be an alien amongst aliens. And I thought maybe we could relate to each other because of that."
“That’s OK. We’re not really the same. You’re a cuttlecrab and I’m a bunch of Eriks on a boat."
Oh, yeah. We don't tag people for these kinds of things (we don't know who to tag!) So, just go ahead and do this yourself, and feel free to tag us at the top so we can read it.
“They dreamed of Heaven and, just like Hell was both a literal and figurative place, it transpired there was more than one type of paradise, and they found it in each other.”
a line from yet another dbda fic I’m now writing because the fixation is unstoppable
Top 5 OC Quotes!
Ooooooo I have a few memorable ones!
1. Lockpicking argument (The Legend of Orian Goldeneye)
Jas: Do you happen to have a lockpicking kit in that bag of yours? Killian: Do you know how to use one? Jas: Listen here, buddy, if you had a lockpicking kit, it’s implied that you know how to use it to begin with. Killian: No! I don't have a lockpicking kit!
2. Missed out (The Hunter, the Myth and the Cure)
Draven: What happened? Octavian: You missed out on a Stalker's finding us. Draven: ...huh? Draven: Y'know what, I don't wanna know. I'm going back to bed.
3. Haunt (The Hunter, the Myth and the Cure)
Luc: *surprised* You're alive. Octavian: No, I'm his ghost, come to haunt you.
4. Threaten with a very sharp sword (Trials of the Six)
Aquilar: If we come back, and I find my boat's gone, Kriv's getting me a new boat even if I have threaten him with a very sharp sword. Kriv: *sarcastically* Oh, I'm so scared.
5. Seen that coming (The Legend of Orian Goldeneye)
Octavian: Should've seen that coming, shouldn't we? Draven: Shut your damn mouth, de Silv.
Sending you some good fluffy summer vibes to start the week...
Love you 😘
Ohhh perfection! you deserve a little love in return for this.... HOw about..........
“I’m going to need the story behind ‘playboy bunny tattooed on your ass’, Mike,” you laughed. “Ehm, is it sufficient to just tell you I lost a bet, without getting all the way into that?” “Absolutely not,” you replied.
(The Edge of Paradise)
My mother lived in the same place all her life. My mother's mother did the same. They filled our heads with stories of a glorious past, fooling themselves that they were holding vigil for its inevitable return, while in fact they just waited, and wasted away while waiting.
