❝i can hear your heartbeat.❞
FLORENCE & THE MACHINE STARTERS
Irma laughs. It’s a higher sound than normal, half-stuck in her throat, obviously forced. ❝Really? I can hear it too, you’re not special.❞
She prides herself in being an honest person, but, just this once, she’ll stick closer to bravado than admission. She’s nervous, yes, afraid, definitely yes. Going to say that out loud? Oh hell no.

❝a thousand armies couldn’t keep me out.❞
FLORENCE & THE MACHINE STARTERS
Well. This is awkward. ❝ Uh… ❞
How does she begin to explain that the reason the kitchen is locked is because she ate all the cookies?
❝ I think, just this once, we should just go back to bed and not get a midnight snack. I’m trying this thing called being responsible, see? ❞

»»» yes, I’m a circus freak. go ahead and laugh all you want. You want to know why I joined the circus? Do you have any idea what my home life was like? growing up with six sisters who looked exactly like me? it was like I didn’t even have my own name! at least I’m different now.
circus freak is a compliment!

“Okay, here’s my proposal: you make us costumes like those Mean Girls wore when dancing, you know the scene. We dance that dance at school, during the Christmas performance, in front of our parents. Then we tell them about our powers! They’ll be too scandalised to care. Excellent plan, right?!”

“Did you, somehow, magically, know the power and heating in this H U G E mall would get shut off? Is that why you’re wearing so many more layers? Why didn’t you warn others, pal? I can barely move enough to continue my gift-buying!”
