thinking now too about this one quote on the character of ophelia from hamlet that goes "when ophelia appears singing little songs and handing out imaginary flowers, she’s proof that adolescent girls don’t just go out of their minds for the fun of it. they’re driven there by people in their lives who should have known better."
ok but an adult wendy going back to n.everland but seeing it v differently as an adult versus as a child, because children are far more comfortable with things that should be disturbing because they don't know any better, a la a.iw 2010's wonderland/underland concept and prince c.aspian (film version) "you may find narnia a more savage place than you remember"
thinking again about how the basic narrative concept of the 2010 aiw remake ( young adult woman returns to the fantasy land of her youth to save it, ultimately decides to return to her home world because she has her own goals she needs to achieve and to establish her independence ) would work v v well for wendy
——— ❛ NO, THAT'S NOT QUITE RIGHT. like this. ❜ darling girl made a point of slowly demonstrating the steps for tying the knot. the pair were working at repairing a fishing net. it would be easier work with more hands, but wendy had purposefully shooed the boys away. there'd been a great deal of commotion when the newcomer appeared. it had been a long time ( as best as they could tell time ) since anyone new had come to neverland. she had sent the boys away with the intention of giving the girl some space, but now that she had some quiet time with the stranger, she couldn't resist the pull of her own curiosity.
❛ slightly said he saw a ghost. it was just a little before you arrived. said he saw a boy with short hair appear out of nowhere, then vanish right in front of him! was that you? . . .obviously, you're not a boy. you see, the lost boys, they get things confused. they thought i was a great white bird when they first saw me, so don't be offended they thought you a boy. they're sweet, silly things. ❜ the darling girl couldn't help but chatter on excitedly. ❛ anyway. was that you? ❜
@shotgunscn asked : " it is possible. I kill alot of people. " boy!king sam !!! / the pr*ncess bride sentence starters
——— ❛ NO, YOU KILL MONSTERS. ❜ it wasn't the same. she shook her head, like one trying to shirk off the daze and disquiet of a bad dream, but found no greater clarity. ❛ sam, what's gotten into you? ❜ he was different now and that made her scared for him. ❛ talk to me. you can always talk to me, whatever it is. ❜

“ you mock my pain! ”
“ life is pain. ”
“ he’s only mostly dead. ”
“ i’m on the brute squad. ”
“ you are the brute squad. ”
“ prepare to die. ”
“ we’ll never survive. ”
“ nonsense. you’re only saying that because no one ever has. ”
“ who are you? ”
“ get used to disappointment. ”
“ you keep using that word. i do not think it means what you think it means. ”
“ i’ll use small words so that you’ll be sure to understand, you warthog faced buffoon. ”
“ that may be the first time in my life a man dared insult me. ”
“ drop. your. sword. ”
“ shut up!! ”
“ you’ve made your decision then? ”
“ i bet my life on it! ”
“ truly, you have dizzying intellect. ”
“ you’re just stalling now. ”
“ you guessed wrong. ”
“ enough of that. ”
“ surrender. ”
“ you mean you wish to surrender to me? very well, i accept. ”
“ i hate waiting. ”
“ morons. ”
“ you are wonderful. ”
“ you seem a decent fellow, i hate to kill you. ”
“ why are you smiling? ”
“ because i know something you don’t know. ”
“ goodnight. good work. i’ll most likely kill you in the morning. ”
“ oh, there’s something i ought to tell you. ”
“ think it’ll work? ”
“ it would take miracle. ”
“ hear this now — i will always come for you. ”
“ this is true love, you think this happens every day? ”
“ death cannot stop true love. ”
“ i died that day. ”
“ we may as well die here. ”
“ he’s dead. he can’t talk. ”
“ as you wish. ”
“ why didn’t you wait for me? ”
“ you can die slowly, cut into a thousand pieces. ”
“ you killed my love. ”
“ it’s possible. i kill a lot of people. ”
“ yes, you’re very smart. shut up. ”
“ you’ve been mostly-dead all day. ”
“ inconceivable!! ”
“ let me explain. ”
“ your vote of confidence is overwhelming. ”
“ what hideous sin have you committed lately? ”
“ will you ever forgive me? ”
“ there’s a shortage of perfect breasts in this world. it would be a pity to damage yours. ”
you’re concentrating on the wrong bits ; this story is about being a young woman and being catapulted into adulthood.

@emfyred liked for a starter ( for helaena or aemond! )
——— ❛ D'YOU THINK THERE'S MORE DRAGONS in valyria? ❜ wendy wondered aloud as she sat atop one of the walls of the red keep gardens, her legs swinging and feet absentmindedly kicking against the stones. ❛ d'you think they could've survived the doom? flown up high over the destruction and not come down until it was all over with? . . . and how come everyone who sails for valyria goes missing or dies? ❜
——— ❛ IS ' SPARROW ' your real name? ❜ she paused, cocked her head, and reconsidered. ❛ . . . i suppose you can't tell me that. only, it makes a very good pirate name : i would think it must be assumed. or, if born to, then becoming a pirate must have been fate. ❜
