Tagged by @greypetrel 💛 thank you dear, scrolling through the pages was super sweet and it reminded me that doing something for myself without stressing too much on how it could be perceived was one of the best decisions I've ever made ;; <3
So, luckily for you I only have just a dozen of chapters translated so you're getting just the Haven + trip to Skyhold arcs :' there she's more jokes oriented wait until the trip to the Dales kicks in
🌸💀 Ankh before the "Lav" 💀🌸
"I should have listened to you. And this will be the first and last time you ever hear me say it!"
"Every culture strives to make [death] poetic in order to make sense of the pain of loss, but reality is much more selfless than any theory."
"This is the point at which I usually lay out my theory to Varric and he raises ten coppers that the situation is actually far worse than what it seems."
"I'm not "an elf". I'm the one who’s going to send you chopping wood with a butter knife, if you keep this attitude."
"Do you really want me to strip completely naked and dance around the fire, hooting in the moonlight under the influence of psychotropic mushrooms?" she paused. "With this cold?
"They give us a certificate along with the rabbit ears when we sprout from the ground."
"This isn't caution, it's lack of decency. If a man is hovering at the edge of a ravine, you carry him to safety, you don't check his ears first. And don't tell me it's a coping mechanism, or I'll tell Sera where you sleep!"
"And if I die, I'd like you to use my skull as a candle holder. Whatever Avaar may say, skulls make terrible mugs."
"I don't believe in redemption. It's like giving candy to a child after class. Mistakes are not stains, they are a reference point for those who make them to spur themselves to do better. They should be welcomed as much as a person's merits. They exist for those who suffer them and for those who make them, to help them give direction to their path"
"Don't transfer your inability to flirt to the Chantry, mister. It's too convenient."
"Not you too, please! You can't catch the plague if you sleep in the same room with an elf. It's scientifically proven. Unless the elf has the plague, but you can notice it on the fly." she pointed at her face with a circular gesture. "Bubbons, blisters, death."
"Oh, shut up! Thanks to my stubbornness, latrines have never been so clean!"
"I complained as well myself, but your saints have a no refunds policy."
"Humans are fickle, huh? First they hate me, then they praise me, then they forget me, and now it seems like I'm the heroine of all lost causes all over again. In all of this... where's my darn griffin?"
"Oh, I have no weapons; I have an arsenal. And if I really wanted to hurt you, you wouldn't be here now. I know where you sleep, I know your patterns, and it would take very little to convince most of the Inquisition elves that inside the council chambers there's an individual worth shaving at night."

Tagged by @shivunin, thank you so much Mo! It's been so fun. Also a nightmare because I chose Aisling and my goodness someone make her shut up please. Referenced from Monster Fic (which is still getting views?? :"D Welp.), This one Radha fic , this prompt . Five minutes of silence for the one poop line that didn't make it to the final cut of this meme. Always remembered.
🦄✨ Aisling Lavellan ✨🦄
"We look like a swan and the ugly chick of a cuckoo.”
“I do. He’s just been mistreated. The Idiot started training him as a war horse, but it didn’t go well. He’s been beaten and whipped and given little food for too long, and relegated to do the work horse when he’s not. He just needs to learn that people can be trusted again, but he’ll be stronger and swifter than all the others, I’m sure.”
“Hey, I’m trying to stay in the role. I was told I’m a religious figure and I should behave! You’re ruining the mood, people need to think I’m the Herald of Andraste for real and that you can’t laugh! Stop, or I’ll have to sing a very lewd drinking song, you’ll laugh loudly, and they’ll all know!”
“I am aware I must sound like a child. But I believe people are good, deep down. And that everyone deserves a second chance.”
“In the case I’ll tragically fall to my death on horseback, I’ll leave a note to allow you to talk to my funeral and tell everyone that you told me so, is it all right?”
“The bad and the good, Cole. The good is better if there’s bad, like when it stops raining and the sun shines again, or when springs melts the snow and the flowers grow. But, humans can’t choose one, you know it. There must be snow and rain and thunder to make the flowers grow. I’m fine, don’t look at me. What do you want to do?”
“Honestly, I think all the time that you would have made a way better job as Inquisitor, if I hadn’t convinced the Keeper to send me and not you. You would have done a better job as First than I ever did, if… And I’m… I’m trying to prove that it’s not so, that I can be good too. Been doing it all my life, honestly.”
“Mh. I’m not really sure. Care to try again? For science?”
“You wished for a Cinderella, your Grace, but I am a bad one. You would know if you ever had paid more attention to anyone that’s not yourself.”
“But then, even if I feel nauseous and I hate everything and I would beg you to just take the title from me, I can’t take it, it’s too much and I’m just me… Then I remember that if I had run, I’d never met any of you, and you’ve all become family, and… And I do believe that we’re doing something good to the world. And that’s… That’s enough when the walls seems to loom upon me and I think that I can’t shoulder another impossible decision that shouldn’t be mine to take.”
“What if you explain and nothing changes? I know about loneliness, and of thinking you don’t deserve the love you get. You don’t have to face it alone.”
“I know. But I can still do some good, and the important people will remember me. I don’t care for the rest.”
“I’ve been alone ever since people started calling me the Herald of fucking Andraste, but I guess you wouldn’t understand being imposed by others a part that means nothing to you and you hate, right, Blackwall?”
“But if thinking he deserves another chance makes me a traitor, than be it. He’s more powerful than any of you realize. If you really think that hate and open hostility will ultimately save us all, I am glad to call myself a traitor and die as one.”
“No. You will let me finish. I know my shit, I am good at it, I am happy that you worry and care for me, really! I am and thank you for it, but this is getting ridiculous and I’m only doing worse because I’m stressed about you not trusting that I am competent and constantly watching me like… Like… Like a fucking vulture!”
Special mentions:
"Bad horsey!"
“Hey! I also have good days!”
Tagging: @ndostairlyrium @underneathestars @melisusthewee @rowanisawriter @pinayelf @zenstrike @inquisimer @heniareth and YOU!

These are from a wip and it’s Gwyn from dragons dogma 2. Putting below the cut for length.
Tumblr media
1. “A senseless request when you are all that consumes my thoughts now.”
2. Ah, another pretty boy in distress. Shall I throw you over my shoulder then?”
3. “You can leave, if you wish. Know I would miss you dearly, if you choose that path, but my joy is brightest when you are defying what destiny has ordained for you.” She reaches up to tuck a stray hair behind his ear. “And you shine brightest when your actions are of your own volition.”
4. “Raise your hand against her again and I’ll wear your fingers as charms on a chain around my neck.”
5. “Now if I told you that, it would no longer be a well kept secret now, would it?”
6. “Do you three gossip about me as well while I am away?”
7. “Have you lost your senses?” She reels on him in the dark recesses of the dim lit halls, a draft sending a chill down her spine and raising the hairs on her neck. “Times such as these require playing the part of the feckless dullard. Either play the part with me or wait here.”
8. “No, it does not bother me that he takes Disa to his bed. In another world perhaps—“ She laughs. “I have always enjoyed a bit of sugar with my cream.”
9. “If this is my destiny,” she spits, fists balled in seething anger. “If this is only what I was made for in this world, then perhaps I should unmake this world.”
10. She hovers in the doorway, eyes fixated on the bandit leader. “You can milk him all day but I believe this billy goat is better repurposed for slaughter.”
11. “Fear grips my heart nearly every waking hour, but when we are yoked together, I know only courage.”
12. “Senseless from the moment I met you.” She tsks. “You are a fool to think my heart does not ache for you. Not just your touch but those words whispered and carried off by the winds during our midnight trysts.” She takes another brave step toward him. “I miss you and long for you. I did the night we met and even more so now.”
13. “Have you seen the view from here? How unfortunate to have been made arisen. I should have liked to have been made with wings.”
14. “I hear the brine calling and it sounds like it’s begging for supper,” she says and delivers an arrow to its eye.
15. “His objective is dubious at best but I admire him. Though I believe his thorough research methods could be used for better means, his spirit is unwavering in resolve.” She offers a wry grin. “And I’m not just saying that because he carries the same resolve in the bedroom.”
Tagging @ellstersmash @fangbangerghoul @lisa-and-shadow @myreia @staticpallour @a-cosmic-elf @roguelioness and anyone else who sees this and would like to do this for their oc (and no obligations of course)!

Thank you for the tag @bearlytolerant!!!
Ghoul looking badass as usual.
Tumblr media
15 lines will be below the cut!
These are from a little bit of everything that contain Ghoul.
1. “No, I didn’t see how it was relevant” They responded trying to shut it down. 2. “What’s…what’s the strangest encounter that you’ve had?” Ghoul asked curiously. 3. “It doesn’t matter they are dead.” She said flatly as she pulled an olive sweater on that she had found and a pair of loose cargo pants. 4. “I don’t remember asking for homework to stay here.” She said in defense, and he let out a small chuckle before returning to his Leader of the Crimson Fleet persona. 5. “Welcome back. I am already feeling myself becoming less-.” Ghoul’s hands greedily ran up the sides of her curves and back down to her lovely thighs. “Lonely. Do I get a name for tonight or should I make one up?” 6. “The only pretty little thing is going to be your cock on the side of the street if you don't step the fuck back.” Ghoul growled as she parted her feet slightly trying to subtly reposition the weight of her body. 7. “I had it under control.” Ghoul said getting defensive and crossing her arms.  8. “Don’t ask questions you don’t want answer’s too.” Ghoul muttered with the same annoyance she had towards him earlier. 9. “Would you like to do the honors?” She invited him to a caged match with a playful smile.  10. “LET ME GO” Her voice was guttural and hoarse, from the rage and the dehydration. “I WANT TO FUCKING KILL THEM ALL! EVERY FUCKING PERSON OUT THERE!” 11. “You’re cool.” She said with finger guns held up and sounding a bit defeated at not being able to find normal words.  12. “I can’t do both?” She asked sarcastically before she just placed her head on his chest, surrendering to her original plan. 13. “4000 and if you can wear something pretty, I’ll dine you before I bend you over.” Her words were as smooth as the shot she was about to take. 14. “Fucking kill me already.” She said to herself with such boredom that it made the corner of her lips curve slightly. 15. “Are you fucking satisfied yet? Or do you want me to moan your name too?” Ghoul coughed out hoarsely and spit a bit of blood onto the floor.
Hopefully these are a window into her soul. A lot of these you can check out from my Masterpost that have links to my AO3 content.
I'll tag: @avani-telvanni @eridanidreams @therealgchu @booburry @spookyspecterino @5oh5 @toxiclizardwrites @order-of-the-eye

Grandpa V’s Greatest Hits 15 Lines of Dialogue
Tagged by @merge-conflict (here) and @luvwich (here) Thank you! 🧡
Rules: Post 15 lines (or less) of character dialogue. You can include context for the scene if you wish!
Pulled all these from So It Goes (I can do greatest hits now because I finished it, ha!) and they're all roughly in chronological order, but feel free to send an ask with a number if you want/need more context.
Tumblr media
1 “As for my table manners, those went out the window with my shame and my corporate career.”
2 "Rumors are true. Who’d you get your referral from?"
3 “Don’t see a reason to be shy, and not like you haven’t seen a pair of tits before either.”
4 “How’s your aim? And how do you feel about some fireworks with our light show.”
5 “Fine. You can write ‘salty’ on my tombstone.”
6 “You’re a real fucking gentleman you know that. Making me do all your heavy lifting for you. You’re lucky I’m already getting paid to do this shit.”
7 “Hear me out? I’ll buy you a coffee. Or if you need something stronger, I can arrange that too.”
8 "Compact, discreet, can't check it at the door, always have a weapon on hand. What's not to like? Thought about getting mantis blades at first, easier learning curve but I'm glad I went with the monowire. Think it's a bit more practical, multipurpose."
9 “Well, I’ve got… duct tape and zip ties in my pockets.”
10 “When Bear mentioned ‘your girls’ earlier, I was a little concerned because for a second I thought…”
11 “Still f–fightin’ wars we can't win… M–makes you wonder why we stay.”
12 “Well, when everything else in your life’s hard, soft’s awfully appealing. And he gives excellent head.”
13 “I’m sorry, I–I can’t.”
14 “Still think I’m worth loving after all this, Detective?”
15 “You take after her, y’know.”

15 Lines for Vistri
Tumblr media
Tagged by @rotschopf-thedrow 🥰 Thank you! I love these games.
Rules: Share 15 or fewer lines of dialogue from an OC, ideally lines that capture their character/personality/vibe. Bonus points for just using the dialogue without other details about the scene, but you’re free to include those as well. I feel like making a little ask game out of this SO: if you wanna you can send me one of these and i will give you context/ a snipped of what it is from! (you could also guess the context if you like!)
I've included the dialogue tags if they're part of the same sentence.
“Don’t worry, I would have invited you if I had. Actually, I think he’s a little miffed at me. I don’t know why though—” She interrupted herself laughing at a joke she suddenly came up with all on her own, “He doesn’t want to give me his pipe!”
2. “Astarion, you could never bore me.”
3. “You mean other than just to adore you two in person?” Vistri remarked with genuine flattery.
4. Vistri’s expression was mischievous, “Right. That’s right. You don’t fuss, lover, you dote.”
5. She slapped her forehead, “The pig! Gods I was wondering why you were being such a bitch about the pig!”
6. “Gale!” she whined, “Come on, Gale!”
7. “And when she passed me by! I did a little spell! And… It shoved her stupid, devil panties up her big, blue arse!”
8. She laughed at him. A real bitchy, mocking laugh, “Oh, you chose it?”
9. Vistri dropped his hand and laughed, “Silly boy!”
10. “I didn’t die! Exactly...” she stubbornly insisted, refusing to ever take anything serious, seriously. “I just fell over!”
11. “I hate you!” she giggled, playfully pushing him off her.
12. “Deepest apologies,” she said hand to heart, “If I knew you were looking for ham, I would have lowered my voice and given it a bit of a warble before greeting you with something like, 'Mighty night stalker! We have been honored by your graceful presence! Is there any way poor souls such as ours could hope to please thee?’”
13. Unsuccessfully clearing the ecstatic happiness from her lips with a smirk, she said, “It’s a fucking dump.”
14. “Talk?! My love, it’s not talk. I prom—No! I swear to you that one of us is going to toss Cazador’s head at the other’s feet. And then together you and I will drink his blood and lick it from each other’s lips, before we leave the rest of him to rot among those who chose to stay loyal.”
15. Offended, she answered, “I’m blowing my nose!”

1. “No fucking way. You two are two fucking animals and I know what you would do. But tonight I'm the only one who's gonna fuck someone in this body!”
2. “I wonder how you're gonna get out of this.”
“Oh, you're fucking feisty tonight.”
3. “I don't remember much, but I felt safe. That, I remember. It felt like home. You still feel like home.”
4. “I wanted to have lunch with you, Mama Welles, Viktor, and Misty. You should really eat her tamales… I wanted to go… I don't know, on a fucking vacation somewhere with you. To have a party, a true party, not something work-related. I wanted to cook something for you and have a nice homemade dinner together. I wanted… more.”
4. “Call me by my name… Fucking scream it! I want the whole fucking Dogtown to hear you!”
5. “So let's fucking do it. You. Me. One last fucking ride. We don't take anyone with us. We don't put anyone in danger. We don't lean on fucking anyone.”
6. “Oh, come on Violet, you won’t be alone! You’ll have your Viktor, and Misty, and Mama Welles, and Judy, Panam, your fucking fuckboy and his whole fucking circus…”
7. “Yeah, big boy. That's nothing compared to other times. Grab a seat. Watch the game.”
8. "I won’t take anything half-assed. Not anymore. You’re in… Or you're out. It’s your choice, Violet.”
9. “You’re no spring chicken, darling.”
10. “I watch you. You have changed but deep down you’re still the same.”
11. "Hey! You don't have your hair anymore! I can't mess with it!”
12. “Killing Scavs is my second favorite kind of thing. Maybe later we can do my first.”
13. “I’ve always been looking for you. But I could never find you”.
14. “I'd say you look beautiful. But not even I could pull off this lie.”
15. “V is not here, you blockhead. I'm Johnny. And it's so fucking prime to see that you know shit about me!”

15 lines of Dialogue game
As ive been away for the weekend, not sure if anyone tagged me with this but saw it open tag so here we go. Tagging @vorchagirl @despicablediet and anyone who'd like to do it! 15 Lines of Dialogue Rules: Share 15 or fewer lines of dialogue from an OC, ideally lines that capture the character/personality/vibe of the OC. Bonus points for just using the dialogue without other details about the scene, but you're free to include those as well! Since i've written the most with Seren Jones, I shall pick her for this!
Tumblr media
1 -"Maybe I am, but there isn’t anything left in this universe worth staying for. Whatever is in the next universe has to be better than this one Barrett, it has to. I can't bare to stay here any more, not without him, not when I could have done it so differently."
2 - "Cora… she was there, saw her dad die…She hated me, blamed me for not saving him. After the funeral, Lillian took her and that was the last I ever saw that wonderful twelve year old. I realised then I had no reason to stay in my universe as everything i loved had been taken from me. I hoped maybe another would give me a second chance. To fix things..to try again…
…That’s why I do this.”
3 - "I came here the first time with no preconception of what I’d find. I was in awe at the location, just as you are now. But what I learned here has guided my hand in relation to how I see the Artifacts, how I see Unity and the Starborn. Anyone who wants to complete the Artifact collection, needs to know the full story for themselves.”
4- "Now you see how dangerous this place is, and this is just the start. The Starborn Guardians here have lost all empathy, all compassion, their humanity in pursuit of their cause. They have nothing left in their existence except to stop anyone else reaching the Temple. …I sometimes wonder what is the point of their existence before I wipe them out of it for good.”
5 -”You washed them clean. I can say one good thing about Lillian in that she gave you the chance to do that. You’re not the same man, Sam.”
6 -”They makes me smile every time I come back here. But I’m not entirely alone, the fish there get a view unlike any other.” She pointed to the couple of little fish swimming in their tanks, sitting right at the edge of the massive view screen. “If you don’t mind taking care of them for me, they’ve been a good little crew, never complained once.”
7 - "I've never met you before. Until today I'd never met a single pirate here." That was the truth, if a little stretched Seren thought.
8 -"All this, this universe is a nightmare. I've been to so many variations and… You… everyone here is so different, so wrong. It’s like Unity decided to show me the worst outcome possible just to make me appreciate who I’d - what I’d lost.”
9 -"Neat trick, have to remember that next time I'm in a hell-hole universe."
10 -"Sorry, Sam, just picturing you over Vlad’s head brought on images of you in ballet tights and…yeah, sorry, I have too much imagination.”
11 - "Yes, justice, Delgado. See that’s behind most things I do now. In this case justice for those your fucking coloured coded Spacers have harmed- have murdered. It’s interesting really how far I got here without anyone realising who I really am... I wondered why no one noticed the SIN of my ship. Even Jess surprisingly. It was a gamble using it of course…But no one ever clocked that I was flying the Razorleaf."
12- “Until I knew for sure you felt the same way I did, I wasn’t sure how to really act around you. But now I know, expect more of this, Sam Coe.”
13 - “You know I would! I mean she called me darlin, you know that makes me melt.”
14 - "…He always said he was bad with words, yet he could say things that were like love poetry to me, that would dazzle me. He was so open with his feelings when he trusted you. Funny, absurd sometimes and he cared deeply and loved passionately. He was an amazing father and I-"
15 - "I've no idea. Being Starborn didn't exactly come with a manual."

thanks @fangbangerghoul for the tag! tagging @silurisanguine, @atonalginger, @bearlytolerant
"I can sit still if I want to, but it takes a great amount of self-discipline, and that doesn’t leave much energy to fully pay attention to people speaking. I need to be physically moving for that. For some reason, people find knitting to be less annoying than fidgeting. I don’t know why."
She shook her head, “Dissociation. Or something akin to it. I can turn off all emotions and my mind goes into a purely logical, analytical mode. I was processing data.”
“Rice and kimchi. I don’t like tacos.”
She exhaled slowly and nodded, rolling her shoulders back, correcting her posture. “I’m sorry. I generally don’t like to be touched,” she said coolly.
"There’s not a lot scarier than middle-aged Korean women."
"If I wanted a man, I took him. If he wasn’t interested in me, that was fine, I moved on. I love sex. I love men. I love the way they look, the way they smell, the way they feel, the way they taste. But, I’m not going to play some stupid game to get one. It’s not worth my time.”
“Anyway, yes, I really like that metaphor. Criminal caterpillar to crime fighting butterfly. But, without the liquefaction.”
She turned and looked at him, and poked him in the arm. “You look like a chicken leg,” she said in the same growly voice, and started squeezing his bicep.
Hwa looked at him critically. “Nothing. You can’t fix me, Sam, I know you mean well, but I’m not a broken doll to be put back together.”
She picked the drink back up, glared at it, then swallowed it down in one gulp. “Get me another,” she shuddered.
She twisted the skirt of the dress and lifted it so that her entire backside was uncovered. She leaned a bit, holding onto the railing and looked back at him, “Easy access,” she purred, “also why I wore these ridiculous heels. Makes things easier.”
Her eyes drilled into his, “So, no. My mother did not love me. I have no urge to see her again.”
"Pirates are kinda stupid. The whole pirate romance thing was nonsense. Scurvy, buggery, frequent starvation, not my idea of a good time. As someone that spent way too much time in their teen years reading Horatio Hornblower and learning about Lord Nelson’s Navy, being a pirate was pretty shitty."
She nodded, “But, I think she got bored by the end, too. And, it’s very difficult to read when you have slices of cucumber over your eyes. I’m not sure what the cucumber slices are for, however. So I ate mine.”
“Vodka, it’s for what ails ya,” she said flatly, lifting the drinkbox as if in a toast.

Tagged by @greypetrel, thank you <3
“I’ve never amounted to anything. I’ve never made my mother proud. I’ve never made myself proud. I let opportunities pass me by, refused every chance to better myself. Ran away when I had to endure and hid when I had to step up. And then– then one day I decided I had enough of myself and my stupid self-pity and did what I’ve never done before. [...]"
She shrugged. “I’ve always liked the darkness. It’s the only time I can see the stars.”
“As long as nobody sees you it’s fine, I suppose.” She reassured him. “Wouldn’t want to have to explain to my host-parents that I had a sleepover with an alien.”
“And I’m glad you finally knocked some sense into that stupid head of yours.”
“What the hell is wrong with you?!” she shouted. “I thought you were drowning!”
“I guess asking you to be a fucking man it’s too much.”
“I’m going to leave you on the side of the road if you don’t shut up,” she warned, pressing her lips together.
“We just have to build a bridge,” she resolved, looking him into his eyes.
“Okay, so we’ll pee our pants. Great.”
Gala pulled away and searched his eyes. “You told me you were starting to believe in fate. Then believe in this. Even if it doesn't make any sense. Believe in us. I didn’t meet you only to let you go now.”
“Please, don’t mind her,” Gala interjected, widening her eyes at Tam while mouthing a silent ‘what the fuck?’
She was baffled. “Are you sure you didn’t– murder someone while I was asleep and absorbed part of their brain?”
“When somebody asks you for more time, aren’t you supposed to wait for them to be ready?” Gala retorted.
“I know I'm a wimp, but I'll do my best.”
“Would it be weird if I called you my hydrogen?”

Deputy Sabrina Donovan | WIPs: In Hope of Tomorrow / A Trial of Errors (AU; Lines 9-15)
1. "Who the fuck ties a person to a chair on wheels. Did they rob an office?"
2. Sabrina narrowed her eyes, the corners of her mouth twitching, "Did someone try to drown you, Seed?"
3. "Yep. I'm still here, didn't teleport through the steel walls, ain't going anywhere, so you can fuck right off." She waited for his footsteps to recede, but they never did, "Like seriously, you're now gonna watch me while I sleep? Fucking creepy."
4. "It was either the radio or I start singing off-key, and I doubt you'd like that."
5. "I will have you know I've been throwing knives since I was 15,", she nodded towards the knife block at the counter, "keep talking and you would find out my actual aim."
6. "Your face is kind of hard to forget." "Was that a compliment, Deputy?" Sabrina rolled her eyes, "You wish."
7. "Are you taking us there?", she repeated, her voice taking an edge, "You have to know, I won't let you take HER."
8. "Didn't strike me as a lace type of girl, Deputy. Are you taking that one, too?", he cocked his head, eyes darkening as he examined the piece. "Oh, you know, I have to win the Miss Universe competition somehow."
9. Her hazel eyes shone as she let out a laugh, "If I had to bet, I'd say you'd be the one getting cold, Mr. Duncan, stolen clothes and all that. I feel like I can skip on asking to see what you're wearing." "Ouch.", he rubbed at his chest at the jab, "That one hurt." "Too soon?"
10. "And you're alone?" "No. A whole harem of guys is keeping me company, actually. They're currently fighting who will be sleeping on my tiny bed, and who's taking the ground, pillowless. A true form of punishment, I tell you."
11. "I'm dealing with a… situation." Her expression was unreadable, "I can see that." "Roughly estimated, how much did my chances sunk with?", [John] asked, flipping back to the view of his face. "Who says they did?"
12. "There's a bat.", he whispered like the creature would hear him and put an end to his game of hiding. "A rat?", she echoed incorrectly. "Sure, Detective,", he hated how his voice shook even as he spoke quietly, "but the type with fucking wings."
13. "Soo..", she began slowly, "why are you without pants? Don't tell me they got stolen while you slept… was it the bat? Should I call Stockton? Though, I think crimes committed by animals are out of his jurisdiction, you can probably vouch for that."
14. "What were you doing up so late?" "A girl has to have some secrets, John."
15. "You could always march over there and threaten to sue them for harassment… Your poor ears would thank you." "Don't tempt me. Because we might end up with a different situation on our hands." She raised an eyebrow, "Them asking you to join?", all he could do was blink as she laughed quietly, "Kidding. Oliver isn't rubbing off on me, I promise."

Deputy Calahan Hartley | WIP: In Hope of Tomorrow
1."I WILL GIVE YOU PURGE, YOU FUCKERS! What timing to be out of dynamite."
2. ["You ready to work?"] "As ready as I can be after crash-landing, almost drowning and getting shot at. Just another Monday, really."
3. "I'm not a leader, chief, hell, it's a miracle I'm still a Deputy. Fuck. Am I even one anymore?"
4. "Zorro will be on his best behavior, I promise. You won't even notice he's around. Plus… he gives mean foot rubs." "Rookie.", disbelief seeped into [Mary May's] tone. "Fine. The foot rubs were a lie. Though, I can take up on that task." "You ain't coming anywhere near my feet, Rookie."
5. "I couldn't leave him behind, gorgeous. He's my son." A huff escaped her, probably at the pout he followed his words with, "He's a raccoon."
6. "One day, you're gonna realize what you're missing, gorgeous. And I won't be looking for payback for these insults. Too much."
7. "Your plan.", Leslie corrected him, "That you devised after getting drunk yesterday." "Most of my plans are conconted that way, chief."
8. "Oh, Leslie, bold and brave, agree to march over to Johnny's GATEEEE…", Hartley sang over the usual lyrics, meeting Zorro's dark gaze, "He looks like John, right, my boy? Even the universe agrees, Parish."
9. "Good old Joseph, oh, how he'd lose his mind if he learns 'God' has been showing visions of his brother fornicating to someone else, he'd probably die from the shock before I have the chance to kill him."
10. "I'm having the worst time of my life here. Humor is what keeps me going, besides Mary May's hidden stash… and well, my anger."
11. "You have the hots for [John], and me… I want to turn him into a human creme bruleee. Two types of people, Gray."
12. "[John]'s been calling me daily, I'm leaving him some friendly notes in return. The start of a beautiful friendship."
13. "Hope you don't mind sitting in the back. Zorro loves riding shotgun."
14. "Go meet your God, tell Him I will send Joseph soon, too."
15. "You're in a bar in Montana.", Mary May rolled her eyes and set a new empty glass in front of [Sébastien], "Closest you'd get to me making you tea, even at lunch is serving you lukewarm water with some of my spit in it. Organic. So count yourself lucky." Calahan leaned in, whispering loudly, "Also known as blatant disrespect. Which I would advise against. Though, I'd take her spitting in my drink anyday."

OC in 15: Kira Sato

thx for the tag!!! @topaz-carbuncle
YOOO THE WAY I GOT SO EXCITED TO DUST OFF MY OC
anyway, i screwed around with the raildex universe and created an oc based off that. unfortunately none of this is published because i basically rewrote the entire thing to the point that it's like in a place where it's not original fiction but also not *quite* fanfiction anymore
Tumblr media
1) “How does it feel, hmm? To have someone wrap their fist around your heart? Don’t be prepared to dish out pain unless you’re willing to receive it.” Upon seeing his lack of a response, she slightly tilted her head. “I wasn’t able to do Blood Flow before. You and your ‘sensei’ knew that better than anyone, but ever since you attacked me, I’ve only been able to control one medium at a time. Man, I was pissed, but it turns out I have more control if I’m only controlling one. I was never able to do this before, but now thanks to you, I can. Do you understand what’s about to come next?” 
2) “I’m killing again for the sake of this power.” Now that they were dead, the grief returned. She leaned back against a wall, sliding down, her head buried in her hands. “The only way to repay them is to perfect my power. I need to get stronger so I can protect them. Yes, that’s the only way to make sure they didn’t die in vain.”
3) “Oh? So you were wanting to kill me. I should kill you a million times for that, you know!” she yelled out as she squeezed down on her neck. “My abilities let me heal, you fucking idiot. If you’re gonna try to kill me, you gotta make sure you finish the job.”
4) “I really did expect just a little bit more of a challenge from you. The times that I’ve fought next to you were quite amazing. Really, they were. It’s amazing how befuddled people get when they realize that your right hand can cancel out abilities. The only thing with me is that I know how to counter that right hand of yours. After you take that out of the equation, what else do you have left? What else can you do?” Kira gave him a gentle smile. “You made a good effort. You made a really good effort. So it’s about time you had a rest!”
5) “I’m not the type of person that saves people.”
6) “I’m not a good person,” she whispered. “I don’t deserve this, I don’t deserve you, I-”
7) “We’ve played this song and dance before and to be honest, your track record isn’t working in your favor. The only way you’re getting out of this is to tell me where she is and maybe, just maybe, I’ll kill you quickly.” 
8) “If I have to forget who I am to save her, I will,” Kira said with an empty look in her eyes.
9) "...monster I was always meant to be. That's right. Kihara Kenkyuu had always said that something was special about me. Takaki Yoshi said that my abilities were different. Maybe I really am a monster."
10) "Do you want to live or die? It’s your choice. That damned Kihara Seigo might have made it so that I can’t control who the hell I kill when I touch them, but that’s a different case with you, isn’t it?” Kira currently held up one of the Hound Dog lackeys that was unfortunate enough to have gotten separated from the rest.
11) “Do you ever shut up?” spat out Kira to silence the man. She grabbed the piece of steel stabbing into the man. “What a pain in the ass. Just asking me to kill you is too vague. I’ll move this thing around to tear your insides to pieces if you keep going down this route.”
12) “Do you really think there is any path left that will save you? After living in this world, trampling on so many people, and making enemies of me and that bastard Kihara Seigo, do you really think you can still live a happy life? That’s bullshit and you know it. You’re utter trash. How many people have you killed?” 
13) “Oh? Then you need a hospital,” continued the Level 5 with a grin. “Of course, I could heal you, but-” Kira shrugged and then looked towards him with scorn. “You idiots took that control away from me. So it looks like there’s no salvation for you here, but you won’t die. Not this easily. I’ll make sure your suffering lasts. Keep living on that hopeless path of life so I can relieve some stress.”
14) “Sorry about that,” Kira said with an uninterested look on her face. “I swore to a certain someone that I wouldn’t be participating in this shit anymore, but it looks like I fucked up.” A laugh leaked out. “You see, if I had my abilities, I probably could have ‘adjusted’ the trajectory of the shell so that it would’ve landed in your leg and removed your ability to walk temporarily or something like that. But oh wait,” Kira looked at the woman with a mocking expression. “You fucks took that away. Karma really is a bitch, you know.”
15) “Sorry,” apologized Kira while cutting her off. “I may be trying to walk on the path of good now, but you lot really pissed me off. I just can’t rest peacefully without finishing the job.”
tagging writer moots :3 (sorry if you don't have oc's or reader lines to use ksjdflskdjf): @chaotic-on-main @leviismybby @lucysarah-c @jayteacups @the-traveling-poet @sixpennydame @flametrashira @kingkonoha @wyvernslovecake @peachdues @postwarlevi + anyone else that wants to show off their oc's!

15 lines of dialogue
Thank you for the tags @redwayfarers and @lilas!

These are all going to be from unposted works in progress, but here we go. 😉
"If this is the price of the Blessing of Light—if you're going to take everyone I love, over and over again, then I don't want it! Do you hear me? I don't want it, I don't want it, I don't…"
"You didn't have to do this. You helped save Ishgard, too. You should be here to see the changes you wrought."
“I’ll be honest, I never imagined anyone would use the word ‘formidable’ to describe me. I do most of my work standing behind someone with a sword.”
“It’s not that. I’ve trained under people who didn’t like me or believe in me before. I can handle it. It was… he started going on about how archery was a Wildwood discipline, passed down through generations. He said I could never understand.”
"My home is gone. There’s nothing for me to go back to. I’m not Gridanian. I’m not Ishgardian. I’m not anything. I’m not even… I’m not even one of you. The Scions. Not really. You’ve all known each other for years, you knew Master Louisoix, you have all this history. I’m just some farm girl you pulled off the street because I had headaches and saw things. No matter what people call me, even the ones who think I’m a hero, I’m never one of them. I save the day, and then I move on. I never belong anywhere.”
"I understand you developed a unique variation on the carbuncle? I should love to hear about the theory behind it."
“He’d turn me loose in his library, and then ask me about what I’d read and what I thought of it. No care for what was appropriate for children, either! Ma used to argue with him about it, until she realized it was fruitless. ‘Books are for everyone,’ he’d say. ‘If she can understand it, then she can read it, and if she doesn’t she’ll put it down soon enough and find another.'”
“Urianger, this is important, so listen carefully. I want to hear everything about the fae. Everything. Should you ever doubt my desire to hear about something, you may ask me, ‘Ariane, wouldst thou care to hear of the intricacies of the customs of the fair folk?’ that I may assure you, my dear friend, that I do in fact want to hear all about it.”
“You knew that I would do what needed to be done no matter what, right? You knew that I would not turn from the plight of this star, no matter the danger to myself. That isn’t why you kept this from me, is it?”
"A smile better suits a hero. Perhaps it does, love. Perhaps it does, but I haven't one to give, at the moment."
"What do you know of his history? Do you know how it has haunted him, what he did to Minfilia? What he kept from us? Did you see him shut himself up in the Waking Sands, convinced he deserved neither comfort nor forgiveness?"
“How would I have done otherwise? When have I ever done anything but what other people told me to do? I couldn’t defy my own mother until she was dead.”
"Sometimes she was. Other times, she was a woman who gave in to all her worst fears about the world, one for whom everything beyond our doorstep was deadly and terrifying, and would have denied me a life because of it. But I dare say she was right about the tea. And the soup."
“I loved a woman once who gave up her life for me. And then I loved a man who did the same. And I’m so tired of losing people, I’m so tired—I don’t want anyone else to give up everything for me. I just want someone who will stay. Live with me. Be by my side. Be with me, whatever we face—together. I said I couldn’t ask you to change who you are, but it’s more than that. I don’t want you to change who you are. Just be with me.”
"Perhaps some things are meant to be. But the secret of our art is it's as much shaping the future as it is reading it. You've said yourself, love—you may accept what you see foretold, or defy it. As our dear Minfilia stood before the Flood of Light. It gives me some comfort to think that things can be changed. To believe—and I do—that the future is not set in stone."

day 14 + 15
“Fuck. What the actual shitting fuck did you do to yourself, Cam?”
“I’m fine.”
“You are bleedingly, horse-shittingly, clearly not fine. You’re maybe going into shock or something, but fine is not in the cards. Fine has not remotely been dealt in. Fine does not have money to put into the pot. Did you dislocate your knee?”
“I’ll be o–”
“If you tell me you’re okay right now, after a tumble like that, I’m going to dislocate the other one. Sextus is going to flip–”
“Don’t tell the Warden.”
“Why the shit do you still call him t– holy fuck, whoa, I’ve got you. Steady. I’m calling the medics over. And then I’m calling your boyfriend–”
“He’s not.”
“Conjoined twin, significant other, worse half, headcrab, whatever. He’ll want to know.”
“No, he won’t.”
“What the– Cam, what is this pity party? Is that why you’ve been so reckless lately? Fuck. Stay with me. Wait, did you hit your head too?”
“I think so.”
“Shit. Just hold on. Hold on for another minute.”
“Cam? Where have you–”
“Sex Pal. Your girl absolutely trashed herself in practice today. I’m at health services, but they took her to the actual ER. She’s not dying, just banged up– hello? Hello? … The things I do for these dipshits.”
— 
“Cam! What possessed you?”
“Hello to you too, Warden.”
“How can you– I nearly had a heart attack when Gideon called me. What happened?”
“I got distracted. I took a tumble. I’m fine.”
“You are not fine. You don’t get distracted. What’s wrong?”
“Nothing.”
“Cam. Talk to me. Why won’t you tell me?”
“...”
“Is it–”
“I can’t do this.”
“What?”
“I can’t rely on you any more.”
“What– what do you mean? What’s changed– oh. But–”
“Let’s not talk about it.”
“Camilla.”
“Palamedes.”
“You–”
“This isn’t how it happens.”

15 Lines of Dialogue 
Rules: Share 15 or fewer lines of dialogue from an OC, ideally lines that capture the character/personality/vibe of the OC. Bonus points for just using the dialogue without other details about the scene, but you’re free to include those as well!
tagged by: @myreia !! Thank you so much 😭 tagging: If you're a writer, take it!
I don't know many other writers so feel free to tag me even if I didn't tag you or even if we're not mutuals, I'd love to see what you're working on!
I have never published any fanfic but I have a ton of them in my drafts. Luckily for me, all I write is dialogue because I'm terrible at everything else.
They're not all Tunasan? Shocking.
— 1: Some amorphous SHB dialogue that went w/ a gpose in some hot springs that I can't post (only bc of nippol 😔). Here be Tunasan.
"Your heart is racing… I thought you'd 'seen it all before.'" "Man sees the sun rise and set every day of his life and does not cease to find it beautiful. Or at least he did." "Thancred…" "I've thought about you, you know. Not a single day went by when I did not think of you. Of you and of all the things I wished to tell, but could not. I thought to write them down– as if a letter could even reach where you were. Ridiculous, I know." "I also… About what happened– with you, at the Cloud Nine, I–" "Enough, darling. Don't say anything you’ll regret." "No. I’ve thought about it overlong. What happened back then was a stupid, regrettable, awful thing… But not because it was with you."
— 2: Some AU(?) involving an Ishgardian masquerade. (Tsuna and Tataru.)
“Oh, don’t be so modest! ‘Tis a good thing! After such a long stay in Sharlayan, I was worried you’d return to us more bone than woman-- Speaking of… How are the ribs?” “No longer floating. Or so I'm told.” It was in Tataru’s blooming smile did Tsuna realize her design was to employ a corset, and she managed to stifle her groan of disappointment.
— 3: That one really long Sharlayan fic that will never see the light. (Y'shtola and Thancred.)
"I should not have to say this: do not fall in love with her. We Scions are a well-oiled machina, and I would not have a thief falling for the Mammet’s heart." "... and what if she were to fall for the thief, what then?" "Our lodestar will not fall for some flights of fancy." "Our lodestar is a woman grown, Y’shtola." "You have broken every heart you have ever touched, Thancred, and you will not break this one… I will see to it. You will end it before it begins. Is that clear?" "… As crystal."
