the witcher (show) starters
β victimhood is not your colour. β
β you canβt outrun destiny just because youβre terrified of it. β
β your job is to control chaos, not to succumb to it. β
β you donβt deserve the air you breathe. β
β not a single person alive looks in the mirror and doesnβt see some form of deformity. β
β you lie, you keep secrets. you succumb to emotion and weakness. β
β not answering questions is part of your brooding pillar of charm. β
β youβre just mad because you lost your chance to be beautiful. β
β you smell of death and destiny, heroics and heartbreak. β
β thereβs no power in puppeting fools. β
β iβll leave that for someone who gives a shit. β
β i need to get back to my horse. β
β your will to live is strong. β
β iβm still not enough. even for you. β
β need a hand? iβve got two. β
β my men will kill you. β
β iβm here to drink alone. β
β go. on your own or at the end of a rope, your choice. β
β do you know how many people wouldnβt blink if you died? β
β you werenβt taking control. you were losing it. β
β people call you a monster too. β
β iβve waited all these years for you to admit weβre made for each other. β
β if only you could tell between friend or threat. do you even know the difference anymore? β
β when you live as long as i do, all the names sound the same. β
β were you in love? β
β this place isnβt safe when youβre alone. β
β the only thing you do quickly is flee. β
β even if you were a beauty, still, no one would love you. β
β not a happily ever after after all. β
β hm, doesnβt rhyme. all good predictions rhyme. β
β you are making me uncomfortable. β
β unchecked kings and queens start massacres. β
β i just want some damn peace. β
β i dreamed of becoming important to someone someday. β
β the only thing special about you is the crown on your head. β
β what do you long for? fame? money? power? β
β what? no one mentioned the impending doom part. β
β true words are rare words. β
β i want more. i have to be more. β
β do other women find this coarseness charming? β
β love casts long shadows. β
β if she runs, kill her. β
β donβt give me that look, shitling. β
β today isnβt your day, is it? β
β how come when my life comes to shit youβre the one shoveling it? β
β i know who you are. what you are. β
β i envy you. to live, and to have no love. β
β youβd leave a man bound to die in such a dignity? β
β i loved your mother. β
β donβt you know who i am? β
β so thatβs all life is to you? monsters and money? β
β thereβs a vortex of fate around us. β
β is history a wheel doomed to repeat? β
β the sword of destiny has two edges. β
β iβve considered your company and conversation payment enough. β
β this isnβt who you are. β
β will you be joining me? β
β no amount of power or beauty will make you feel worthy of either. β
β i donβt believe anyone has that power. β
β nobody smart plays fair. β
β i wonβt listen to a man who pimps the world as some romantic adventure. β
β a true man would state his desires. β
β donβt turn this on me. β
β i want to be powerful. itβs what iβm owed. β
β that makes sense just as much as it doesnβt. βΒ
β youβre smart, arenβt you? you know everything. β
β i feel something out there waits for you. βΒ
β please donβt hurt me. iβm lost. βΒ
β i wonβt kill youβ¦but you cant stay here. βΒ
β thereβs noΒ βusβ. thereβs only me. βΒ
β iβm asking for a teeny-weeny little favor. βΒ
β yeah, youβre probably right. but what if youβre not? β
β iβm not your friend. βΒ
β you and destiny can both fuck right off. βΒ
β i love the way you just sit in the corner and brood. β
β i will not suffer tonight sober. βΒ
β pretty ballads hide bastard truths. β
β i will not involve myself to petty menβs squabbles. β
β happy childhood makes for dull company. β
β itβs impossible to be prepared for every battle. keep your sword close, and keep moving. β
β i see a lot of myself in you. β
β you canβt change the world this way. β
β i donβt need anyone. & the last thing i want is someone needing me. β
β alright, stand close to me and pretend youβre mean. β
β why are you dressed like a sad silk trader? βΒ
β only one of us will be alive to find out. βΒ
β i stole rather than starve. i killed rather than be killed. βΒ
β i haveβt only done good in my life either. βΒ
β itβs like ordering a pie and finding out it has no filling. βΒ
β when i cut my finger i bleed. thatβs human, right? βΒ
β theyβre rough around the edges but theyβre earthling like me. βΒ
β royalty is best endured in small doses. βΒ
β i thought the world needed me too. βΒ
β sometimes, the best thing a flower can do for us is die. βΒ
β handy with a blade. handy with women too. β
β are you trying to hurt my feelings? β
β you look like youβve been through hell. β
β i canβt do this without you. β
β you know cautionary tales wonβt work on me. β
β you talk nonsense while making wise and meaningful faces. β
β the apple never falls far from the tree. β
β when i go it will be far more dramatic than this. β
β try not to get any daggers in your back before dawn. β
β you have your motherβs blood. youβll be alright. β
β a great ruler always chooses mercy. β
β it took two strikes to kill him. they werenβt clean. but they were spectacular. β
β if i have to choose between one evil and another, iβd rather not choose. β
β i would do anything to forget who i was. β
β i have no doubt blood will be spilled here tonight. β
β thereβs a grain of truth in every fairy tale. β
β people look at you for who you are, not what you can give them. β
β do you believe in destiny now? β
β we can leave. we can find a way out. β
β lovers? fun for a bit, iβll admit, but all eventually disappoint. β
β letβs face it, youβre a girl. weβre just vessels. and even when weβre told weβre special, weβre still just vesselsβ¦for them to takeβ¦and takeβ¦until weβre emptyβ¦and alone. β
β people like to invent monsters and monstrosities. then they seem less monstrous themselves. β
β every time iβm around you i say more in five minutes than iβve said in weeks. β
β maybe someone out there will want you. β
β if you must kill me, iβm ready. β
β people linked by destiny always find each other. β
β thank the gods. i might live to see another day. β
β i was having a rather lovely dream which then turned into a nightmare. β
β you desperately need money for new clothes.Β β
β more and more, i find monsters where i go. β
β life is too short. do what pleases youβ¦while you can. β
β gods youβre pretty. β
β my lady, i would never degrade your honor in such a way. β
β my world is cruel. you enter, you survive, you die. β
β i feel i shall die a broken hearted man. β
β who slits a manβs throat while heβs relieving his bowels? β
β why help those who donβt listen? β
