Favorite Lines Tag Game
I was tagged by the amazing @isabellebissonrouthier! Thank you!
Some of my favorite lines from Call Me Icarus:
…Am I dead?
“I sleep with whoever the fuck I want to sleep with,” Icarus said, each word dripping with poison. “The kid is not one of them. Neither are you, frankly.”
He wanted the god above him to thoroughly desecrate him and leave nothing behind. Use him for all that he is worth so that he might actually be worth something.
And a couple from Incorrect Eyes!
“Where have you been?” Hiding. Hiding and working and sinking further into the pit of despair and paranoia.
Was that what we considered holy? What we had spent so much time trying to find? What we had hoped and prayed to see when we died? Not me, not now.
My life changed when I heard those three words, and never again would I search for what they meant.
Imma tag @crypticcodexcreations @aether-wasteland-s and @saintedseraph this time!

Rules: share a line you really enjoyed writing/that you think is super awesome :)
Thanks for the tags, @tragicbackstoryenjoyer and @autumnalwalker! Here’s a line I’m proud of, from a backburner WIP about sisters and grief and family and gardening...
The idea stayed, lingering like the condensation on Sienna’s ice water glass. An illusive definition of family dripped down and over her fingers, a question of grief and love left a ring behind on the table.

Grazie mille @the-stray-storyteller
literally can't think of a single line I've ever written and been proud of... this has taken days to compile lol
Finding Hope
“You’re fourteen. What are you gonna do in Reno?”
She swallowed the terror, burying it with all the strength she had.
Smoke and Fire
You leave that school, and I will personally slash your tires.
"I have seemingly been insulted, threatened and complimented all in a few sentences. I'm flattered."
Wrench had finally convinced him to leave the room on a useless errand after I threatened to stab him with the pocketknife conveniently left on the coffee table in arms reach.
I'm fairly certain the last hour has pretty much destroyed my trust for anybody around me anymore, ever.
no pressure! tagging: @pen-for-sword, @inkspellangel, @inkvulture, @zmwrites

Thank you for the tag, @blind-the-winds.
Passing the tag to @dogmomwrites, @cljordan-imperium, @ceph-the-ghost-writer, @oh-no-another-idea, @affectionatemeconopsis, and an open tag for anyone else who wants to join.
I've already mentioned previously how Day 140 of The Archivist's Journal is generally one of my favorite things that I've written, and that a certain exchange written at 2am for Chapter 12 of Empty Names is one of my favorite bits of dialogue I've put together. But if we were to go by "favorite dialogues between two characters" (or what passes for dialogue in The Archivist's Journal) then there are suddenly a great many contenders in The Archivist's Journal and there's another scene in Empty Names that, while less fun, I like better for showing an side of Sullivan and Road that doesn't normally get shown.
These are going to get a bit long, so dropping it under the "Keep reading" line.
The Archivist's Journal, Day 185:
The beach itself was pleasant enough, once we finally got there.  If Maiko was frustrated with my pace, she did a good job of not showing it.  As suspected, the prospect of swimming exhausted me simply thinking about it, but I was still able to wade a short distance into the waves, letting them wash around my knees and allowing my feet to sink into the sand.
Close my eyes and turn my face to greet the sun.
Stretch my arms wide as if to embrace the sea.
Breathe deep of the salty air.
Listen to the surf before me and birds behind me.
Allow myself to smile.
As my arms grew tired I let them drop and slowly opened my eyes as I turned to look back at Maiko.  She was still at the treeline, half hidden behind a trunk as I’d first glimpsed her those months ago.  I waved to her.
The twofold pause of one who’s realized they’ve hesitated.
She gave a small wave back.
My smile faded.  I walked over to her.  Asked if something was wrong.
Silence save for the birds and the waves.  Four beats of the sea’s heart.
She said she usually tries to avoid spending time in exposed areas like this.  Too easy to be seen without realizing it.
I considered what to say to that.
Waves in.  Waves out.
Waves in.  Waves out.
She added that she’d begun to get lax about that, but seeing people at the spring the other week had her on edge once more.
Another beat.
I imagined taking her by the hand and running toward the water.
Waves in.
Her momentarily too surprised to resist, letting herself be dragged along despite being more than capable of stopping.
Waves out.
Protests about the possibility of being seen.
Waves in.
Reassurances that no one ever comes to this particular stretch of beach but me.
Waves out.
Easing into the sea.
Waves in.
Playful splashing about in the water.
Waves out.
The both of us allowing ourselves to relax and let our guard down.
Waves in.
Telling her that I’m sure no one in the Village would have a problem with her.
Waves out.
And if anyone did say anything, she had friends to stick up for her.
Waves in.
A good day with her coming out of her shell and me feeling that I had helped.
Waves out.
I nodded, said I understood, and thanked her for indulging my whim to come out here.  We walked back to the house in silence.  As we did, I wondered if I should have acted on that fantasy.  It was a nice idea, but who’s to say it was a good one?  Who am I to force a fairytale idea of “helping” someone on another?  Would it really have been helping, or was it just a self-aggrandizing fantasy about saving or fixing someone? And if it was a good thing to do, I’m not the sort of person who could pull it off.  Maybe Lin could, or even Cass.
And besides, I was tired.
Empty Names, Chapter 4 - Prince In Gold
Every so often he turns through a door and into a room and cuts through it to another hallway that geometry would have demanded intersect with the first had not the sorceress Bridgewood once said otherwise.  The portrait room.  The lesser library.  The skull room.  He’s halfway across the verdant drawing room (as opposed to the xanthous drawing room or the aquatic drawing room) when he notices his friend asleep on the moss-green couch.
Sullivan freezes, not wanting to wake them, but their eyes flutter open a moment later all the same.  Had he made more noise than he realized, or was it the glow of the fireplace coming to life with his entrance?
“Hey Su,” they mumble with a voice still groggy from sleep.
“Hey,” he whispers back.  “Didn’t mean to wake you.”
“Is fine.  Not that asleep anyway.”  An obvious lie.
“We have plenty of real beds around you’re welcome to use, you know.”
“Mhmmm.”  They slowly shake their head.  “Never could get used to ‘em.”
The corner of Sullivan’s mouth curls up into a faint smile at old memories.  “Right.  I’ll let you get back to sleep,” he says and then turns to leave.
“Su,” whispers the voice behind him.  He stops and turns back around.  “Since you’re here, can you tell me a story?  Please.”
“Sure thing.”  He takes a seat on the floor leaning against the couch, one leg outstretched while the other makes an arch to rest arm on knee.  He looks up at his friend and asks “One of the classics?”
They shake their head.  “Something I missed while I was away.”  Their voice still sounds half-asleep.
“I’m afraid there’s not much to tell there.  It’s been pretty quiet here lately.”
The light from the fireplace reflects off pleading eyes.
“Well, I suppose there was one thing,” Sullivan concedes.
“Oh?”
He takes a deep breath and closes his eyes.  He breathes out and stares into the fireplace.

rizzless sukuna pt. 2 (find part 1 here!)
Part of an ongoing series basically now dedicated to @nessieartss and their jjk sibling au!!
Hope you guys enjoy awkward Sukuna as much as I do!
---
Fuck it. Let's do this, Sukuna says to himself as he crosses the courtyard to catch up with Megumi. There's a little voice in the back of his mind that's telling him that this is a stupid idea, what the hell is he doing. If this went poorly, Yuuji would never let him live it down.
Honestly, Sukuna wouldn't let himself live it down. He's never been one for dating; it's never really appealed to him.
It's never really been relevant. His own words ring in his mind. “Yeah, until now,” he mutters to himself.
It isn't until he's caught up with Megumi that he realizes he isn't even sure what to say. His feet had started moving in their own accord, carrying him across the way in long strides. Maki had said to simply 'ask him out', as if it's that simple, as if Sukuna didn't already mention that he's never done this before.
Yeah, he's definitely never asking Maki for advice ever again, and when this inevitably fails, he's absolutely blaming her for it.
“Hey, Fushiguro!”
Megumi looks up from his phone and his eyebrows raise in surprise when his gaze lands on Sukuna. He looks around, as if expecting someone else to be with him, but there’s no one. It’s only Sukuna, which increases his intrigue more.
“Oh, hey, Sukuna,” he greets, pocketing his phone. “Yuuji went that way.” His head jerks in the opposite direction.
The older boy gives a noncommittal hum. “Well, that’s cool, but I wanted to talk to you.”
Megumi arches an eyebrow curiously and stays quiet, waiting for Sukuna to continue. A long pause draws out between them; Sukuna realizes that his heartbeat has picked up and his palms feel clammy, his fingers fidgeting.
Am I nervous?
No. Sukuna shakes his head; he doesn't get nervous. He can be confident, arrogant, cocky, but never nervous. So then why are all of his thoughts a jumbled mess and he feels like an idiot with his mouth opening and closing like a fucking fish.
“Oh…kay, what about?” Megumi presses.
Clearing his throat, Sukuna eloquently responds with, “Uh—” He mentally facepalms himself, unable to ignore the way the corner of Megumi’s mouth quirks up in amusement. It makes his stomach do a summersault. “Do you like dates? Well how about a raisin—wait, fuck!”
Sukuna runs a hand through his hair and shakes his head, irritated with himself. He can’t help but glance at Megumi and sees Megumi's tucked his face into the collar of his school uniform. His shoulders shake with laughter, and in that moment, Sukuna wishes to cause mass destruction to escape the humiliation that engulfs his entire being.
He opens his mouth, about to demand Megumi to pretend this whole thing never happened—
“Did you just ask me on a date?” Megumi asks.
Relief floods Sukuna’s system and his shoulders sag. He swallows against the lump in his throat, and he huffs humorlessly. “Uh, yeah. Kinda? I meant to.”
Megumi is silent for another moment, eyeing Sukuna as he tries to see if the older boy is genuine or not. For once, Sukuna doesn't have anything to say, and he awkwardly scratches the back of his head. Maybe Sukuna should've prepared himself more before diving headfirst into this sort of situation; but when had Sukuna not been impulsive?
“Okay,” Megumi agrees, and Sukuna blinks, shaking his head a little.
“Wait, seriously?”
The shorter boy snorts. He pulls his phone from his pocket and taps on the screen. “Yeah. I'd have to be stupid not to say yes after that terrible attempt at a pickup line.”
Sukuna groans. When he looks back to Megumi, there's a hint of a smile on his face and he holds his phone out, telling Sukuna to put his number in. Sukuna grabs his own phone and hands it over so the two can exchange numbers.
“Are you free after school today?”
A hint of a smile comes to Sukuna's face. “Alright.”
Megumi thinks for a second before nodding. “Yeah, just text me where you want to meet up.”
They look at each other for a moment, Megumi shifting on his feet and Sukuna running a hand through his hair.
Megumi’s phone rings and they both jolt. He rolls his eyes when he sees who's calling and clicks the screen off. Looking back at Sukuna he says, “Gojo is wondering where I am, so I gotta go.”
“Oh, right, yeah.” Sukuna nods, returning Megumi’s wave goodbye.
“See you later, Date Man,” Megumi chuckles.
Sukuna lets the comment slide, too busy dwelling on the fact that he has his first ever date.

Sapphics are so wild because instead of directly going for ‘I love you’ they say things like, “The mark you have left on me is indelible” and, “You are my only friend. I am undone without you” and, “She is not protecting me, Adam, and I am not protecting her. We’re protecting each other” and, “It is incredible how essential to me you have become” and, “I must no longer accept being a stranger to you” and, “Because we work. We shouldn’t, but we do” and, “How could I be there for her if she doesn't let me? …..What if I needed her here for me?” and, “I can’t keep my promise, because the entire pont of me is you. There is no me without you” and, “I have been dull; I have missed you. I do miss you. I shall miss you. And if you don’t believe it, you’re a longeared owl and ass” and SO much more and then they expect us to just act normal about it.
