tw:Ā murder, death, abuse, violence, blood, strong language, all vampire things.
* i canāt die like this!
* itās a kill list in a teenagerās handwriting.
* iām trying to think of something more fucked up than this.
* theyāll scale the sides of this building, force their way inside and paint the walls with his blood.
* donāt look down on them, look in the mirror.
* heās an opinionated young man, he lives to share these opinions even when they are not solicited.
* what does he taste like?
* he tastes like honey and pineapple, he stuffs himself for days before he offers himself to me. would you like to sample?
* i care for him more than he cares for himself.
* you wouldnāt find the corroboration youāre seeking even if you could. we burned, we buried. and a convention city is not motivated to advertise grim statistics.
* i know what iād do, but youāve cut my hands off.
* donāt do that, itās private.
* i couldnāt hear you over the tugboat.
* a whole lot of concern has been wasted on you these past months.
* did you read my other ones?
* well, you better hope and pray you taught me how to clean up good.
* you gonna let him do this to me?!
* iāve read some passages out loud, iām afraid. hurtful words for both of your guardians.
* i buried them, okay?! way out of town! nothing out there for miles, no oneās ever gonna find them except maybe criminals burying bodies of their own.
* iām never gonna forget what happened here. i hate you.
* i mean, itās always a straight line with you. yes, i am asking for your support in my campaign.
* sounds like thereās a maniac on the loose.
* donāt be too startled if the police come knocking on your door.
* i was in the middle of cleaning when they knocked.
* you often leave your daughter alone with access to illegal spirits?
* thatās my daughterās room!
* oh, iām getting ready for bed!
* have you lost your goddamn mind? overnight, in a jail cell, with no coffin. we all be dead by morning.
* we do not bring souvenirs into the house!
* so much wine in his bloodā¦ and beer, and whisky.
* you wanted her, you fix her!
* do you remember our life, how happy we were before her? an anvil tied around our ankles, pulling us towards the pitch-black ocean floor.
* who am i supposed to love?
* how are you gonna fix it, huh? which one of you is gonna fuck me?
* well, youāre not my type, i like a fuller figure.
* if you could find other vampires, which you wonāt, they would shred you to strips because you are built like a bird, because you are a mistake.
* how about you shut the fuck up?
* he treats us like shit and you take it! why is that?
* you, as cruel as the devil ever made, to refuse me one love when you got two!
* iāve been entertaining myself.
* why did you take me home? why not a hospital? maybe iād have a handsome husband by now, or heād be plain with a good disposition. thatād be fine too. iād be sweeping floors, making dinners, nursing babies. maybe iād go to churchā¦ you think on that some.
* i had no words for her, what words were there? āit all happened so fastā, āi was trying to save youāā¦ āall vampires are born out of trauma.ā
* poor dear. she wasnāt held enough in between ritualistic murders.
* look, charlie manson wrote a couple of beautiful songs. still, he was charlie manson.
* is that all you think of her?
* it wonāt matter what your intentions areā¦ itās the world out there right now.
* once you put it out there, they decide what it is. it can get away from you.
* i wonāt have her exploited.
* assume we are under suspicion. assume our finances no longer provide us protection.
* make your kills outside of the city, one a night. no persons of noteā¦ unfortunates, undesirables.
* we should leave the city, start anew, turn a betrayal into an opportunity. new york, chicago, los angelesā¦
* we should dismantle her room.
* there would be no roaring twenties for us.
* we were underground for seven years.
* (name), come home. i know i hurt you. i know i can make it right again.
* little girlā¦ iām talking to you. now what were you doing in the library? youāre not allowed in there.
* i donāt talk to strangers.
* just as i thought, a little thief. youāre coming with me.
* what are you gonna do after that? after you turn her in, after it makes you feel like a big man, whatās your next move, you think?
* youāre not allowed to ride one of those on campus.
* this is our school, where is your fighting pride?
* flaubertās style is so dense. the absence of metaphor is so strikingā¦
* should we make it a night of the two?
* you sound like every pompous sorbonne student iāve ever eaten.
* should i do it like you instead? read the first ten pages of every book and pass myself off as cultured?
* well, at least youāre listening. i sit there thinking ālight yourself on fire, see if heāll notice.ā
* you draw me into your gloom.
* itās your fault sheās gone. if you hadnāt pushed herā¦
* i cannot listen to this insanity about (name) one more time.
* i got to hear my own funeral. only couple dozen people showed up, most didnāt have much to say. started talking about the weather a few minutes in.
* poor fella digging my grave lies resting on the family plot.
* what was he like, your maker?
* it aināt like that, heās more like a dad.
* oh, now thereās three of us.
* got me wondering what itād be like, ride with others, hunt in a pack. a little fang gang.
* you donāt kill like a (name), you kill like a killer.
* there are four pages torn outā¦ did she tear them out? didnāt seem like something she would doā¦
* when you do that, when you editorialize, however noble the reasoning, it calls into question all of the other shit youāre shovelling my way.
* it could be her, but iām the one who is presently standing in front of you.
* so, if my considerable considerables continue to be squanderedā¦
* hello? oh, sorryā¦ no, itās good to hear your voice.
* weāre headed northā¦ crash cleaned us out. and donāt offer, ācause iām not asking.
* donāt need that either, (name). orā¦ whatever you are that took my (name).
* i prayed myself old, begging what to do about you. god never talked back, soā¦ this is how it has to be, for me, for my family. you understand?
* iāve come to apologize, i put you both in a bad spot. i wasnāt right in my headā¦ i am now.
* so, quick stop home to do laundry before you fuck off for good?
* perused a few folklore anthologies and now youāre going to cross the ocean to take on a society of monsters?
* if what iāve read is lies, then tell me whatās true.
* seven years and whatās changed other than you need a housekeeper?
* the vampires out there are viciousā¦ oh, but you know that already. who did you meet out there?
* thatās it, keep 'em scared. thatās his way.
* we took her life from her. we cursed her.
* come with me! come with me, (name)!
* i thought i could live without you but i was wrong.
* his love is a small box he keeps you in. donāt stay in it!
* a thousand nights of sulking, and the first sight of her youāre just gonna up and leave me?!
* please, come with me! letās be vampires worthy of your love!
* i fought myself a million times, fought my nature, controlled my temperā¦ i never once harmed you.
* let him goā¦ he didnāt do nothing. itās me you want.
* i have patiently waited in vain for you to love me as i love you. just say itā¦ iām never going to love you. it would help me a great deal to hear that from your lipsā¦ your quivering, hateful lips.
