Soon you’ll be ashes or bones. A mere name at most—and even that is just a sound, an echo. The things we want in life are empty, stale, trivial.

AMERICAN GODS SENTENCE STARTERS

episode two - the secret of spoons. ( contains violence and nsfw themes )

❝ can you hear me ? ❞

❝ you want help ? fine. ❞

❝ let me tell you a story. once upon a time, a man got fucked. now, how is that for a story ? ❞

❝ let me paint a picture of what’s waiting for you on the shore. ❞

❝ and all for what ? ❞

❝ and i ain’t even started yet. ❞

❝ this guy gets it. ❞

❝ angry is good. angry gets shit done. ❞

❝ you’re already dead, asshole. at least die a sacrifice for something worthwhile. ❞

❝ let. the motherfucker. burn ! let it all burn. ❞

❝ were you shot at ? ❞

❝ well it depends on who you ask. ❞

❝ i don’t know what the fuck you speak of. ❞

❝ how was the funeral ? ❞

❝ you wanna come in and talk about it ? ❞

❝ mmm-mmm-mmm. what a little asshole. ❞

❝ oh, you know him ? ❞

❝ they don’t have a fucking clue. ❞

❝ i don’t give a fuck if they don’t have a fucking clue, i want one ! give me a fucking clue ! ❞

❝ good. compact amended. ❞

❝ your first bed as a free man. enjoy it. ❞

❝ an assault on you is an insult to me. don’t think because i didn’t lose my temper i am not angry, or am lacking a plan. ❞

❝ i didn’t mean to wake you. ❞

❝ they told me you died. ❞

❝ you were just having a bad dream. ❞

❝ you going to miss it ? ❞

❝ too many people tell each other not to repress their emotions, to release their feelings, to let the pain go. there’s a lot to be said for bottling up emotions. ❞

❝ what i say has got to be said, so i want you to consider my words very carefully. ❞

❝ say it. ❞

❝ you are only obligated to feel bad about that for so long. ❞

❝ let there be beauty where there can be. ❞

❝ plan is, we will be meeting with a number of people preeminent in their respective fields, and then we will rendezvous in one of the most important places in the country. ❞

❝ i don’t like dropping in on friends empty handed. ❞

❝ you can’t look out for yourself, how the hell are you gonna look out for me ? ❞

❝ not so fast. we need to talk, [ … ] . ❞

❝ funny how things supposed to make you look good only make it worse. ❞

❝ the fuck is this ? ❞

❝ i’m all sorts, [ … ] .❞

❝ i’m the one they sacrifice to. then till now. ❞

❝ time and attention. better than lamb’s blood. ❞

❝ i hate that. i hate that they were hurting you, [ … ] . i would never do that to you. ❞

❝ i want you in my camp with us. ❞

❝ look at it like this: we’re the coming thing. we are already here. ❞

❝ i was impressed with how you dealt with him/her/them. ❞

❝ who’d have thought you had it in you ? ❞

❝ he/she/they were underestimating you. they all are. not a mistake i’ll make. ❞

❝ i can give you so much more. you name it, honey. what do you need ? ❞

❝ don’t fight gravity, [ … ] . i’ve been at this a while. ❞

❝ i’m trying to help you. ❞

❝ keep your neck out of the belt. ❞

❝ that went as well as can be expected. ❞

❝ i think i’m losing my mind. ❞

❝ oh, like the rest of your life is sane. ❞

❝ at times, the universe does seem to have singled you out for unique abuse. in these moments you have to ask yourself, would i rather be ignored ? ❞

❝ always better dead than forgotten, and no one is ever going to forget you. ❞

❝ it’s a sudden onset of strange. fair cause for consternation, unless strange is a new language and what we’re doing here is vocabulary building. ❞

❝ you may have to consider that you didn’t see what you saw, or you did. the world is either crazy or you are. they’re both solid options. take your pick. ❞

❝ when you decide, come and tell me. but don’t rush into it. take your time. difficult decision. ❞

❝ there are bigger sacrifices one might be asked to make than going a little mad. ❞

❝ you wanna know the secret of my success ? the secret is charm. ❞

❝ i only come when matters are vital, as they are now. ❞

❝ god, you are gorgeous. you have not aged. ❞

❝ the truth is not what people want to hear. ❞

❝ prettiest woman, prettiest lies. ❞

❝ black as night, sweet as sin. you take coffee, then i read your future. ❞

❝ he does not know our world. ❞

❝ i’m easing him in. ❞

❝ you are the worst man i have ever seen. ❞

❝ nice to see you, old friend. i brought a gift. ❞

❝ i come here only to share bread and information. what you do with the latter is entirely up to you. ❞

❝ i’d be happy to help. ❞

❝ oh, he is nobody’s husband, and i am nobody’s wife. ❞

❝ family is who you survive with when you need to survive, even if you do not like them. ❞

❝ i am not a good cook. when i was younger there were servants to make meals. here there are no servants; there’s only us. ❞

❝ learning is beneath me. ❞

❝ i thought you were supposed to read tea leaves ? ❞

❝ that bad, huh ? any good news ? ❞

❝ you brought that madness into my life once. never again. ❞

❝ you know me. you know what these hands have done. ❞

❝ you don’t want me, you want [ … ] , and he’s/she’s/they’re not here. ❞

❝ it will be glorious, win or lose. ❞

❝ i am tired of glorious. ❞

❝ everyone thought he/she/they must be the good one. so i became me. ❞

❝ time passes. now i am gray. ❞

❝ i think in the old country i am forgotten, and here, i am like a bad memory. ❞

❝ i know the killing. ❞

❝ to give a good death is art. ❞

❝ every man’s an equal. ❞

❝ is good ? ❞

❝ first blood is mine. so you’ve lost. game is done. ❞

❝ i just started. ❞

❝ ten thousand deaths made right here. ❞

❝ it’s your move. ❞

❝ he’ll take that shot. no joke, no boast, no half-measures. how good are you ? ❞

❝ it’s your decision. ❞

❝ when my voice breaks on this song, remember old love gone. ❞

         like a theater preparing its stage ,  the room lights with nauseating green when familiar child - sized hand touches doorknob .  and she doesn’t stir ,  patient as the spider in the web ,  until the soft sound of soles against floor is close enough to greet .  “  CORALINE .  “  head twitches out of the shadows and into the light ,  poised upon skeletal neck as she tilts it ;  smug expression that may pass for affectionate plays across her thinned ,  cracked features .  “  oh ,  coraline .  my sweet ,  precious girl .  “  silken tone is like the paws of some great cat circling its prey ,  her words only warbling slightly with the way reality is contorting around them ,  trying to fit itself into the decayed pink palace .  her world collapsed .  an offense that should be punished ,  but now is not the time .  now is the time for forgiveness and joy !  blackened lips remain twisted in their grimace of pride ,  arrogance permeating like a heavy perfume in the air as she rises ,  rises ,  rises up onto four legs splayed on their fine points .  “  it seems to me ...  that you’ve lost something .  “

         her sharp little rodent fingers twitch against the prizes beneath the loveseat ,  an instant of nearly delirious triumph .  and her hands ,  her hands ;  thin as needles ,  sharp as razors ,  produce the green stone and the ball  (  EYE  )  from the empty air as if she were a magician .  the house ,  which is the world ,  seems to hold its breath at the sight .  “  i win .  “  she guts the silence and lets the room flood with the girl’s loss ,  lets it weigh heavy as dirt on a casket against the clever thing’s shoulders .  no more real world for coraline ,  no more boring old eyes for coraline !  oh ,  she’d stay now ;  forever and always ,  and how wonderful their life will be .  back of her dress twitches like the wings of a fat ,  heavy beetle ,  and she lets go of the little trinkets ,  lets them go where dropped things go .  she has what’s most important now .  hunched form straightens slightly ,  elegant even with all its odd angles ,  and stick - thin arms spread in a mocking invitation to loving embrace .  “  come here ,  coraline .  won’t you hug your mother ?  “  a gloating reminder of what was at stake ,  what’s been lost .  tone remains low with danger ;  needle fingers dance .  “  let’s put all this silliness behind us ,  now .  “
