Carrie (brightbeautifulthings)’s Quotes

“All across the multiverse, this power chooses Peter Parker! But here, for once, it chose me! Here I get to be the hero! I don't have to be a damsel in distress! I get to save people! Me! It shouldn't matter how old I am! It should only matter that I'm willing to do the work!”
― Seanan McGuire, Ghost-Spider, Vol. 2: Party People

“If Eddie had been Riley’s friend, he wasn’t that for Andrew. That friendship was a muted fraction of the real thing, the marrow-thing, that tied them together. Through the cavern and their hauntings since, through a life spent with Eddie keeping him leashed but cared for at the same time, he couldn’t find a label that fit where he needed it to go. Maybe instead, just a hard stop: he was yours.”
― Lee Mandelo, Summer Sons
