“We can take it slow; we can move fast. You can leave me and come back. You can be exactly who you are or you can be what you've always wanted to be. You can sell that gold twisted band, and we can find a studio in Queens, and I can cut your hair every other month. Let's live off rice and beans, oranges when they're in season. Let's make friends and forget them for days and weeks at a time. Let's ward off all of the terror with talk. Let's make love over and over, until our ribs hurt and we think we're tired of it, then do it once more, just to see if there's still life to be made.”
― August Thompson, Anyone's Ghost

“I have only one thing to say.
'That motherfucker's gonna burn.'
Cassius and Diomedes both turn on me. 'Darrow-'

― Pierce Brown, Light Bringer

“He doesn’t look over at me, but draws a finger along his jaw. Idiot.”

“After all, you’re friends with me, and I’m fabulously picky.” I sit with that for a while. “Wait. Am I your only friend?”
