“What you call a ‘good dream’ I call a ‘bad dream’, because when I wake up I’m sad that it wasn’t real, and being sad is not good, so it’s not a ‘good dream’.” - Lucy Brackett from Misfits.
“This is for everything you’ve done. All the crimes you’ve committed… The people you’ve killed, the blood on your hands, the power you selfishly and wrongfully hold.” - Kim (I couldn’t find a “black” surname that would go with her first name) Hwayoung, Halloween: Deadly Nightshade
“I didn’t like looking at her face for that long.” - Granny Norma from The Story of Paige (I’m working on this for episode, and am likely to change the title)
“Reading fiction isn’t supposed to make you feel depressed!” - Emilianna Saab, Miss Understood.
When Emilianna meets her students (3rd graders, elementary school), the reader can see her inner dialogue after each one introduces themselves.

RENATA: I’m Renata, the smartest and most beautiful girl in the class.
EMILIANNA: Also the most obnoxious, from what I’ve noticed.

EMILIANNA: As well as a major jerk.
ALDO: My name is Aldo, and I like legos and superheroes.

PRIYANKA: My name is Priyanka. I’m Renata’s best friend.
EMILIANNA: You mean ‘her minion’.
“Some people are blessed. Some are cursed. And others… simply wish for a blessing, but end up cursed. I wished for a blessing, and ended up cursed to get the blessing.” - Angelina Thornton talking to Cynthia’s spirit after becoming Chairwoman
tryna write my own interpretation of fortnite lore + it’s characters and i’m having a lot of fun exploring the visitor. here’s some snippets!
“You’re nothing but an amalgam of spare parts. A test run. Disposable.”
It wasn’t pain in the same way humans felt it. Not blood dripping down his metal skin, or anything that would elicit a scream or cry. It was sensors and alarms in his head firing off in his head; so noisy and overwhelming it disoriented him. And it was fear. Real fear.
Paradigm wouldn’t kill him before he’d served his purpose as one of The Seven. But she could make every waking moment of his life before that a living hell. For the first time in his life, he felt scared.
Fear, he learned very quickly, was one emotion he didn’t like quite as much as the others.
