PROMPTS FROM PRACTICAL MAGIC
* assorted dialogue from the 1998 film, adjust as necessary
sometimes i feel like there's a hole inside of me, an emptiness that at times seems to burn.
be careful what you wish for.
wish you could believe in me.
we have to banish him.
he wants me. just me.
what was that, [name]?
you know what? i wished for you, too.
let him take me.
the nudity is entirely optional.
it wasn't me, it was you.
we'll grow old together.
can love really travel back in time and heal a broken heart?
i think if you lifted my heart to your ear, you could probably hear the ocean.
don't die on me, [name], please.
i bet we even die on the same day.
of course you're going to see me again.
hang on to your husbands, girls.
what wouldn't i do... for the right guy?
i have this dream of being whole, of not going to sleep each night, wanting.
i took an oath to uphold the law.
life is perfect.
don't do that.
i'd like to think so.
i have never asked you for anything.
i feel like i'm never going to see you again.
what are you doing?
i came here to bring in the bad guy because generally that's what i do.
sometimes when the wind is warm or the crickets sing, i dream of a love that even time will lie down and be still for.
i just want someone to love me.
i want to be seen.
please do this for me. please?
hold on just a goddamn second. one step at a time.
that's how you came to live with us.
everything is just so blissfully normal.
i wish you could see us.
they like to meddle in people's love lives.
thought you never wanted to fall in love.
you're saying what i'm feeling is just one of your spells?
fall in love whenever you can.
when you find yourself the center of attention... it's not that they hate you. it's that... well. we're different.
you have the worst taste in men.
i was born with them.
since when is being a slut a crime in this family?
you ever put your arms out and spin really, really fast?
maybe i had my happiness.
you promised me that.
so what kind of... uh... craft do you do.
yeah. it's not real.
curses only have power when you believe them. and i don't.
all i want is a normal life.
that's the point.
yeah, well, you know. all relationships have problems.
that's what love is like. it makes your heart race. it turns the world upside down.
when are you going to realize that being normal is not necessarily a virtue?
well... it's what i want.
now that was me.
i don't want them dancing naked under the full moon.
the guy i dreamed of doesn't exist.
is that why they wanted to hang her? because she's a witch?
i don't even mind the beard.
there's a little witch in all of us.
what was that?
i'll tell you all you need to know.
one step at a time.
you think he's dead?
is he cute?
you came for breakfast? we're having pancakes!
what's wrong? cat got your tongue?
someday you'll explain this all to me.

the streets of mausebrook were usually known for their cleanliness & pleasant scenery , but recently it's been thrown into chaos over the last week , trees & poles plastered with missing pet signs , all of them of the feline variety. its not uncommon to find a missing pet sign or two when living in any town or city , but it's been growing & growing in numbers ever since , all to the point that the town is considering holding a town council over the matter , which is as close to them admitting something is wrong that marshall has ever seen. clearly this is the work of something paranormal , though the question still remains if the said culprit was either a living creature , or a dead one of some kind. he's gathered as many clues & flyers as he could in order to try & figure out the reason for this sudden epidemic , but he finds himself drawing a blank on a cause , his vast knowledge of the town thanks to working at the local newspaper doing him no favors at this time. at a local cafe , he buries himself in all the flyers trying to write down notes & wait for some sort of inspiration to strike , but nothing comes to mind & he's admittedly at his wits end.
he doesn't sense her , but @claervoiant appears at his side & refills his cup of coffee , his focus so fixed on his own work before him , but only when she speaks does he finally shake himself out of his trance. ❝ you sure you know what you're doing ? ❞ this waitress' tone isn't at all accusatory or rude as marshall would expect it , but much softer & curious , as if she really was concerned for his wellbeing. clearing his throat , he doesn't dare make eye contact with her as he attempts to clean up the table he was sitting at , hiding the missing posters of the cats with his notebook. it's embarrassing enough that he looked so incredibly disheveled , & there was no way he'd be able to explain him investigating the missing cat epidemic that was definitely connected to something spooky related. he's had enough of people staring at him like he's crazy today. ❝ does anyone ever know what they're doing one hundred percent of the time ? ❞ he tries to appear charming , but it fails when he can't garner the courage to look at her , hiding behind his coffee mug as he takes a sip , a smile revealed sitting between ruddy cheeks when he finally sets down. ❝ just working on a personal thing. not sure what you're getting at , but i'm fine. ❞ he clears his throat. ❝ well . . . as fine as one can be , anyway. ❞

if someone said they were a fan of cleaning , they had to be the biggest liar on the fucking planet. either that , or just downright insane. when marshall signed the lease for this new place , he didn't think he was going to have to do any more labor than just moving in his own personal belongings. of course there was going to be a catch when he was paying for a rather decent price on staying here , so it required some level of clean up & he is less enthused about the idea , especially after moving in everything on his own. thankfully , @gunbash had agreed to come over & help him with his cleaning problems , but the moment his friend had arrived to the scene , he seemed to have immediately regretted his decision once he saw the state of everything. ❝ sorry , wish i could , but i'm allergic , ❞ he says with a frown , his voice almost cracking , as if he was only teasing. even if it was just a tease , marshall was far too tired to handle it with his own usually sarcastic humor , so rather than question him further , he takes a nearby duster & shoves it right into his hand.
❝ allergic to what , manual labor ? ❞ marshall queries with an arched eyebrow. ❝ weren't you in the army ? you're supposed to be a tough guy or whatever. all i'm asking you to do is help me dust around here & you're already here so , you can start with the cobwebs in the corners. you're tall enough to reach those , right ? ❞ tall enough to reach , but also it meant that marshall didn't have to deal with it himself. god , did he hate spiders & he doesn't want to make a big spectacle of himself if one happened to emerge from the mess webs. ❝ i promise you , i'll make this all worth your while when you're done. pretty sure i have a bunch of wine i've been harboring in one of my boxes here. you're free to pick one to take home to you & mason if you want. i think that's a pretty fair deal , right ? ❞ it's not like he has any money he can offer. the perks of being a journalist . . . you're always low on cash.

PROMPTS FROM ANGELS IN AMERICA
* assorted dialogue from the play by tony kushner, adjust as necessary
in your experience of the world, how do people change?
we can't even talk about that.
i usually say fuck the truth, but mostly the truth fucks you.
i dreamed we were there.
i looked for you. i've been everywhere.
well, that's a stupid thing to do.
can you tell me where i am?
i'm gonna have a baby.
can i come with you? this isn't working anymore.
you fell out of love with me.
i have emotional problems.
now we both have a secret.
i burned dinner.
if you have something you want to ask me, ask me!
it was a joke.
i'm a shell. there's nothing left to kill.
i go there all the time. free movies.
i think if you touch me, your hand might fall off or something.
i don't know what will happen to me without you.
that's not purple. that color up there is mauve.
i never imagined losing my mind was going to be such hard work.
the body is the garden of the soul.
for god's sake, there's nothing left.
i've lived through such terrible times.
i have always depended on the kindness of strangers.
you do not live in america.
i can't. i'm scared of you.
how on earth did you know?
there are no gods here.
he loves... but his love is worth nothing.
it's like throwing darts at a glob of jello. there's no satisfying hits.
death usually has to take life away.
if i can find hope anywhere, that's it, that's the best i can do.
it's so inadequate.
worse things have happened to people who have touched me.
i want more life.
will the past release us?
you are amazingly unhappy.
we won't die secret deaths anymore.
you can't live in the world without an idea of the world, but it's living that makes the ideas.
the world only spins forward.
sorry, wrong room.
the time has come.
you only think you know all i know.
are we doomed?
you are fabulous creatures, each and every one.
i hate america. i hate this country.
it isn't easy. it doesn't count if it's easy.
stop it! stop it! i'm warning you!
what do you want from me?
you didn't have to do that.
only you love me. out of everyone in the world.
you're a battered heart, bleeding life in the universe of wounds.
it's no fun picking on you. you're so guilty.
i don't even know what all i know.
that was deliberate.
maybe a queen can forgive her vanquished foe.
it can be very hard to accept how disappointing life is, because that's what it is, and you have to accept it.
i live in america, that's hard enough.
you have to keep asking.
i don't have to love it.
i wish i could go traveling.
there's something creepy about this place.
everybody's got to love something.
no such place exists.
you'll find, my friend, that what you love will take you places you never dreamed you'd go.
i think i have a copy.
god won't talk to me. i have to make up people to talk to me.
half the time i just make it up, and it still turns out to be true.
good. i was worried it'd be a garden. i hate that shit.
i don't understand why i'm not dead. when your heart breaks, you should die.
one wants... but one so seldom gets what one wants.
life is confusing enough.
in the new century, i think we will all be insane.
that's how people change.
you reach a point where... the disappointment doesn't hurt as much, and then it gets easy to live with. quite easy.
i'd even pray for you.
so what the fuck is the matter with me?
we won't die secret deaths anymore.
don't you think it's depressing?
it's all been done before.
this is why, [name]. this is why i shouldn't be left alone.
you wanna destroy me, but i am not gonna let you do that.

PROMPTS FROM THE PARENT TRAP
* assorted dialogue taken from the script, adjust as necessary
we've got a big, big day ahead of us.
now the question is, how do i get it out?
you must be new.
i would say you need some serious help.
now that's my kind of woman.
we traveled six thousand miles for... this?
it's rather picturesque, wouldn't you say?
i'll be fine. see you in eight weeks.
i'm positive i'd remember you.
sorry, wish i could, but i'm allergic.
sure. i'll take a whack at it.
why's everyone staring?
want me to deck her for you?
i'm so tired. i'm crawling back into bed and sleeping until lunch.
save yourself the aggravation. it's really disgusting.
you'll thank us for this. you'll see.
i feel so bad for you.
any of your pictures ruined?
i love oreos. at home, i eat them with peanut butter.
most people find that totally disgusting.
it's scary the way nobody stays together anymore.
will you stop thinking about your stomach at a time like this?
oh man, this is beyond coincidence. this is beyond imagination.
this is so freaky.
if you could only eat one food for the rest of your life, what would it be?
that's the way true love works. history's filled with stories of lovers parted by some silly misunderstanding.
i have a brilliant, beyond brilliant idea.
oh, right. sorry, i'm just a little nervous.
you sure you know what you're doing?
oh god, i hope she likes me. please like me.
you look fantastic. what did you do to your hair?
i just love how everyone drives on the wrong side here.
now you're even talking like an american.
i'm making a memory.
i can't believe it's you.
i'm sorry, it's just... i've missed you so much.
can you believe it? it seems like it's been forever.
i didn't realize you were so beautiful.
i found a stowaway in your suitcase.
can't you manage without me?
you don't think it's too over-the-top?
come on, let's see what all the fuss is about...
i like things exactly the way they are, thank you.
now let's see what disaster awaits us.
you can't avoid the subject forever.
we kind of hit it off immediately.
i knew you were going to ask me all these questions one day.
it just didn't work out.
get into these arms, you little punk.
what happened to you? something's changed. did you get taller?
now you sound like your old self.
i made cornbread and chili.
i'm just so happy to be home.
i can't put my finger on it, but something about you has definitely changed.
when you're done, come on down. there's someone i want you to meet.
sorry, did i get you wet?
somebody grab that, please.
we've got a major problem.
are you nuts?
this is an emergency.
you've got to get back here to help me.
there's something really important i want to talk to you about.
you do an absolutely marvelous british accent.
i'm trying to tell you something!
why's everybody acting so nutty around here?
i'm afraid you're kind of missing the point.
let's discuss this calmly and rationally...
you are unbelievably out of line.
this is fantastic wine, by the way.
are you okay? would you like me to come with you?
why didn't you tell me it was you all along?
i've never been so happy in my entire life.
i'm in such major trouble here.
you're perfect for each other.
may your life be far less complicated than mine.
i can't believe it. you haven't changed at all.
i think i have to get dressed for dinner.
sometime, if we're ever really alone, maybe we could talk about... what happened between us.
you didn't come after me.
it's the wine we drank at our wedding. i now have every bottle ever made.
can we open one?
you're the only one i'd drink it with.
you don't always have to be so brave, you know.

the town of mausebrook is a happy , prosperous town filled with happy citizens & teaming with boundless opportunity. when you're here , everyone is your friend & neighbor , & they accept all types of people regardless of background or culture. that was the hope that millicent mausebrook , the founder of the town strived to achieved , wanting to create a place where all could feel welcomed & there would be no need to fear the possible prosecution of others. mausebrook was officially founded in october of 1692 when millicent wanted to leave her hometown of salem , massachusetts & begin life anew. she grew to love this area due to the heavy bat population found in the forests surrounding the town ﹙ her favorite animal & now the town's mascot ﹚ & decided to make a new home here , welcoming anyone who wandered her way. the town has flourished ever since then & millicent's descendants continue to live & work in the politics of the town , striving to continue achieving millicent's dreams.
rumors among some of the townsfolk does spread from time to time over the history of their little town. many wonder how millicent was able to raise & create a town so quickly , as well as gain support when women in leadership was looked down upon at the time. not many argue further when these questions are presented & unanswered , but there is more to the story of mausebrook's founding that isn't found in any history book. millicent mausebrook didn't just leave salem for the sake of wanting more , but she left because she was being persecuted. the salem witch trials had begun running rampant in their town & she knew she would be next when her friend sarah was one of the first victims. millicent was a witch , but sarah was not , & she knew many of the town of salem didn't like her , especially considering her less than obedient ways. she ran away hours before the townsfolk could tear down her home & she ran until she made it into the state of connecticut & stumbled upon a tremendous discovery.
among the trees & the forests where the bats reside , she discovers the entrance to another world . . . the underworld , so to speak. the world went by many names , but essentially it was a land where creatures resided & lost souls roamed. there were many creatures & ghosts sneaking out from this world , seeking refuge in some way , but unable & too afraid to brave the human world for fear of being hunted or killed. millicent immediately connected with them as they all shared the same feelings of being prosecuted & together they decided to make their own town where no one would need to be afraid of being prosecuted ever again. once news of their town grew , millicent , along with other witches who would come to live with them , would teach some creatures how to make glamours so they appeared normal. some would live in the town , others would live in the forest & others would only merely visit. there were of course creatures who wanted to do horrible things to the citizens rather than live a happy life , but millicent would take care of it herself , as she wanted nothing more than to keep her home as safe as possible. she would eventually pass that mantle down to another , much more able person & then that would be passed down from person to person for years.
no one , not even the mausebrook family themselves knew of millicent's witchy background , as she kept that secret from her future husband & children , never once allowing anyone to witness her magic. however , it is because of her that the town remains as successful as it is , as well as the reason why so many odd goings on continue to occur behind the shadows. danny estrada , marshall's father , would move to mausebrook from his home in california in order to begin a life of his own , as well as study the occult & all things paranormal. he would stumble upon an older man who was tasked with keeping the town safe & on his dying breath , he asked danny to keep watch of the town , forgetting to mention that he'd need to pass down his job to another when he no longer wanted the responsibility. so when danny inevitably retired , it left with no one to be the connection between the living & the dead . . . until marshall weatherly came into town.
