“a little stitch of a frown marring her forehead like a thumbprint pressed into cooling wax. Her voice, like her movements, was laudanum languid.”

“There was beauty in it still, the way imperfect things can be beautiful, but it was a beauty of a dark and fading kind.”
― Blood on Her Tongue

“You’re much brighter than you let on—and much meaner, though perhaps that’s simply because you’re unhappy, and you’re unhappy because you desire fiercely what you can’t have. You yearn and crave and want with such force, it seems to eat you up from the inside.”

“I want you, Lorelei.
Her entire body sang with those words. She wanted all of her. Her every petty barb, every cruelty she could enact, every meager sweetness dripped onto her tongue like honey. Lorelei had not thought herself capable of feeling like this. Passionately, insatiably, recklessly. It terrified her, to have all her control unraveling and slipping away from her, all her walls crumbling. She needed Sylvia to experience even a flicker of what threatened to consume her now.”

“Saints, Lorelei," Sylvia snapped, and it felt like an absolution. "You are human. Do you understand what's happened here? You've acted the part of a villain so well, you've gone and convinced yourself it's who you truly are. You are honestly one of the least self-aware people I have ever met!"
"I am perfectly self-aware! You are brighter than the sun itself. And me..."
"Enough." Her voice wobbled. "You've made mistakes, as have we all. But don't you see yourself? You are witty and observant. You are fiercely protective of those you care for - and hopelessly loyal, in your way. I don't believe you've ever once acted completely in your own interest, for better or worse. I have always admired that about you.”
