" i'm afraid not, lorna. i'm trying to stay moderately sober tonight sadly." frances' words came out slower than usual before downing the last of her final drink.

frances wasn't a person who got drunk often but social events made her a nervous drinker most of time and this was no different, except the fact she had the sense to slow down this time.

frances then turned her attention back to lorna. " besides you look like you need a drink more than i do."

“Can I buy you another drink?” Lorna asked with a grin, biting her lip as she did. She wasn’t sure where she stood with Lord, but she could hardly turn down an invitation to a gala event. Besides, if anything happened tonight, Lorna felt sure that she could handle it. So there was no harm in having a little fun. “Looks like you’re nearly done with that one and… Well, I’d hate for you to leave so quickly. Unless it’s with me.”

Shit — I’m never going to get this stain out! // danny

frances just barely held back her snickers as she set her champagne flute down onto a table and began to digging into her purse for something to at least help get the stain out.

she soon grabbed a small pack of wet wipes and a bottle of alcohol from it.

" hopefully this will do the trick and if not, i'm out of ideas." frances replied, placing the items into the man's hands.

TIME TO CELEBRATE SCIENCE AND TECH

— LORD TECH GALA INSPIRED STARTER MEME !!

( add a && for a reverse on the prompts that are muse specific in action. )

TALK SHOP.

[ virtual ] for OUR MUSES to discuss the implications of VR.

[ nanotech ] for OUR MUSES to discuss the future of Stark Industries.

[ cyber security ] for OUR MUSES to discuss Drake Industries.

[ guardians ] for the POSTER’S MUSE to comment on the developments at LordTech.

[ partnership ] for the POSTER’S MUSE to talk about some ideas they might have that would work in tandem with the new tech presented. 

[ clinics ] for OUR MUSES to discuss the popup clinics sponsored by Lord. 

So, is L-Corp a video game developer now? That’s what VR is for, right?

VR has a lot of interesting applications! It is so much more than video games.

They’re… going to use heroes as security? Might as well call them mercenaries then.

Do you think Stark made the nanotech colored in red and gold to match Iron Man?

The tech of the century is at our fingertips and you’re biggest concern is what color they’ll come in?

Should we taking bets on how long it takes for someone to hijack the VR systems and start manipulating our brain and memories? Just me? Okay. 

Can you just be excited? For two seconds? 

Technical advancements like this are what led to Ultron… and the sentinels. Hard to get hyped with that in mind. 

WE’RE HERE TO PARTY.

[ cheers ] for the POSTER’S MUSE to raise their glass in celebration at the prompting of the SENDER’S MUSE. 

[ dance off ] for the SENDER’S MUSE to challenge the POSTER’S MUSE to a dance off.

[ slow dance ] for the SENDER’S MUSE to extend their hand in invitation to dance with the POSTER’S MUSE.

[ sneak ] for the POSTER’S MUSE to catch the SENDER’S MUSE trying to sneak an extra shot of alcohol after being cut off by the bartender. 

[ spill ] for the SENDER’S MUSE to bump into the POSTER’S MUSE causing them to spill their drink.

[ clean up ] for the POSTER’S MUSE to help the SENDER’S MUSE clean up their outfit after a spill. 

[ taste test ] for OUR MUSES to sneak into the set up area and try some of the other snacks available. 

[ serenade ] for the SENDER’S MUSE to attempt to serenade the POSTER’S MUSE.

[ banquet ] for the POSTER’S MUSE to catch the SENDER’S MUSE shoveling food into their bag.

The open bar looks pretty nice right now.

Are they allowed to cut you off? It’s celebration! 

I’m not cut off! They just won’t serve me anymore! 

Did that kid just swipe a drink? 

They are either really feeling their drink — or the music… and I’m not betting on this beat.

You know, this song isn’t half bad.

You’re not going to stand in the corner all night, are you?

There’s a nice space outside if you want to go for a walk… get some fresh air with me? 

It’s really stuffy in here, there’s so many people…

Don’t look at me like that, I’m hungry.

Shit — I’m never going to get this stain out! 

THE COWL COMES OFF.

[ double ] for OUR MUSES to accidentally wear the same color / accessory / mask / or theme idea for our outfits.

[ unmask ] for the SENDER’S MUSE to break code by taking their mask off.

[ compliment ] for the POSTER’S MUSE to compliment the outfit of the SENDER’S MUSE.

Who are you supposed to be?

Put your mask back on! You’re not supposed to show your face! 

Do you think I can get away with just a pair of sunglasses instead of a mask? 

This isn’t a mask, it’s a way of life! 

Your mask needs more glitter! 

Your mask isn’t covering anything…

[ text ] they were trying to HIT ON YOU, you idiot 

[ text ] when i call you an idiot, i mean it lovingly 

[ text ] when i call you a dumbass mother fucker, i mean that in the same spirit as the dagger emoji 

[ text ] are you making a tiktok in the corner? 

[ text ] i might be addicted to social media but that doesn’t mean that’s the /only/ thing i do!

❝ I’ve heard the word ‘fear’, I simply choose to believe it doesn’t apply to me. ❞

" fear applies to even the worst of humanity." frances replied, getting up from the table to re-fill her coffee mug.

" do you think that people on death row don't feel fear as their punishment for their crimes comes closer?" frances called out from the kitchen, her back turned away from the other woman

[ofmagentas]

❝ Look on the bright side, if they need a human sacrifice, you can always offer me. ❞

" d-don't say something like that, it always leads to worst things happening." frances scoffed and propped herself up onto the desk in the middle of her room.

the woman examined her nails, looking for non-existent dirt underneath them. " plus i think i can handle it on my own, thank you every much."

❝ Unfortunately we’re all out of bitter revenge at the moment, so it’s either tea or nothing. ❞

" fine, i'll take the tea." frances hissed, her light brown eyes briefly flashing violet purple

she took the cup, careful not to spill a drop onto herself or erik, frances was having a crappy day enough without having hot tea burning her.

⚔ ✞ The Mortal Instruments (book series) ✞ ⚔

90 sentence starters from books one through six of The Mortal Instruments. send one for my muses reaction! Feel free to change anything that needs changing in order for it to make sense to have come from your muse.

❝ It may look like a person and talk like a person and maybe even bleed like a person, but it’s a monster. ❞ ❝ I may be a killer, but I know what I am. Can you say the same? ❞ ❝ Unfortunately we’re all out of bitter revenge at the moment, so it’s either tea or nothing. ❞ ❝ The meek may inherit the earth, but at the moment it belongs to the conceited. Like me. ❞ ❝ If you were half as funny as you thought you were, you’d be twice as funny as you are. ❞ ❝ The most terrible things men do, they do in the name of love. ❞ ❝ I use my rapier wit to hide my inner pain. ❞ ❝ Is this when you start tearing strips off your T-shirt to bind up my wound? ❞ ❝ If you wanted me to rip my clothes off, you should have just asked. It would have been a lot less painful. ❞ ❝ Next time you’re planning to injure yourself to get my attention, just remember that a little sweet talk works wonders. ❞ ❝ You could try not being charming all the time. It might be a relief for everyone. ❞ ❝ If you insist on disavowing that which is ugly about what you do, you will never learn from your mistakes. ❞ ❝ You know, most psychologists agree that hostility is really just sublimated sexual attraction. ❞ ❝ You tore my heart out years ago when you betrayed and deserted me. ❞ ❝ You’re skilled enough, but you could not kill me. You have always been softhearted. ❞ ❝ I’m pure at heart. It repels the dirt. ❞ ❝ You think charm is the same as honesty? I used to think so. I was wrong. ❞ ❝ I prefer to think that I’m a liar in a way that’s uniquely my own. ❞ ❝ Don’t bother feeding me some story about how you just happened to wander along after he spontaneously died. I know you did this. ❞ ❝ Look on the bright side, if they need a human sacrifice, you can always offer me. ❞ ❝ Desire is not always lessened by disgust. Nor can it be bestowed, like a favor, to those most deserving of it. ❞ ❝ I wish I could hate you. I want to hate you. I try to hate you. It would be so much easier if I did hate you. ❞ ❝ I admire your stubbornness. It’s so much like mine. ❞ ❝ You never got a chance to tell me the truth. I don’t trust you, I want you to know that, but I thought I’d give you the chance to tell me. ❞ ❝ We are meant for a higher purpose, you and I. The distractions of the world are just that, distractions. If we allow ourselves to be turned aside from our course by them, we are duly punished. ❞ ❝ I’ve heard the word ‘fear’, I simply choose to believe it doesn’t apply to me. ❞ ❝ I’d say it’s been nice meeting you, but, in fact, it hasn’t. It’s been quite awkward, and frankly, the next time I see you will be far too soon. ❞ ❝ I thought I’d lie on the floor and writhe in pain for a while. It relaxes me. ❞ ❝ I hope you know what I mean when I say I’m sorry you’re here, but I’m glad you’re with me. ❞ ❝ You disappear so completely into your head sometimes. I wish I could follow you. ❞ ❝ But isn’t that what love is? Ownership? 'I am my beloved’s and my beloved is mine,’ as the Song of Songs goes. ❞ ❝ Never believe the bad guy is dead until you see a body. That just leads to unhappiness and surprise ambushes. ❞ ❝ Every time you almost die, I almost die myself. ❞ ❝ You’re not going. If I have to tie you up and sit on you until this insane whim of yours passes, you are not going. ❞ ❝ You were just upset about being left behind, like a child, and you had a tantrum. And now we’re here. Lost. ❞ ❝ Go ahead and do whatever you want, regardless of who it hurts. You always do anyway, don’t you? ❞ ❝ You could at least pretend you were glad to see me. Even a little bit. ❞ ❝ I have a fetish for damsels in distress. My services are also available to gentlemen in distress. It’s an equal opportunity fetish. ❞ ❝ I know how you think you feel about me. You don’t, though. You just like me because I’m safe. There’s no risk. ❞ And then you never have to try to have a real relationship, because you can use me as an excuse. ❞ ❝ I felt like you were someone I’d always been waiting for. I saw you feel it too. Don’t tell me you didn’t. ❞ ❝ You think you only want me because you’re evil, not human. You just want something else you can hate yourself for. I won’t let you use me to prove to yourself how worthless you are. ❞ ❝ I’m tired of you only wanting me around when you need something. I’m tired of watching you be in love with someone else—someone, incidentally, who will never love you back. Not the way I do. ❞ ❝ Anyway, I just saved you from being burned to death, so I figure you’re not allowed to be mad. ❞ ❝ I love you, and I will love you until I die, and if there’s a life after that, I’ll love you then. ❞ ❝ I always figure it’s better to ask for forgiveness than permission in these sorts of situations. ❞ ❝ I want them to writhe and die on the ground. They deserve shame before they get oblivion. ❞ ❝ So now what? You’re going to kill me while I’m tied up? Does the thought of fighting me scare you that much? ❝ You keep passing out on me. It’s extremely tedious. ❞ ❝ But I thought of you—I saw you there, clearly, as if you were standing in front of me, watching me, and I knew I wanted to live, wanted it more than I’d ever wanted anything, if only so that I could see your face one more time. ❞ ❝ I am a man, and men do not consume pink beverages. Get thee gone, woman, and bring me something brown. ❞ ❝ Oh, good. You’re starting to talk about yourself in the third person. That’s not a sign of impending megalomania or anything. ❞ ❝ Seems an odd time to start an insult contest, but if you insist, I could probably think up something good. ❞ ❝ It’s fascinating. You know all these words, and they’re all English, but when you string them together into sentences, they just don’t make any sense. ❞ ❝ You left me. You made a pet out of me, and then you left me. If love were food, I would have starved on the bones you gave me. ❞ ❝ You would do anything to save him, whatever it cost you, whatever you might owe to Hell or Heaven, would you not? ❞ ❝ Latent homosexual panic will do you in every time. ❞ ❝ You villains and your creepy eugenics programs are starting to bore me. ❞ ❝ Killing them is the most merciful thing you can do. ❞ ❝ I am a woman. I will use any weapon and all weapons to get what I want. ❞ ❝ I don’t know why I had to fall in love with someone who’s more stubborn than I am. ❞ ❝ God knows we’re all drawn toward what’s beautiful and broken. ❞ ❝ Watching me play Scrabble is enough to make most women swoon. Imagine if I actually put in some effort. ❞ ❝ Let me break it down for you. I’m young. I’m pretty. And I’m willing to burn the whole world to the ground to get what I want. ❞ ❝ You have ruthlessness in your bones and ice in your heart. Don’t tell me any differently. ❞ ❝ Viewing my naked chest has caused many women to seriously injure themselves stampeding to get to me. ❞ ❝ I was going to kill someone today. I just wasn’t sure who when I woke up this morning. I do love mornings, so full of possibilities. ❞ ❝ Goodness is not kindness, and there is nothing crueler than virtue. ❞ ❝ Weapons, when they break and are mended, can be stronger at the mended places. Perhaps hearts are the same. ❞ ❝ We are so much lovelier when we fall. ❞ ❝ You are mine. You have always been mine. When you were born, you were mine, though you did not know me. There are bonds that nothing can erase. ❞ ❝ Mercy is a condition of your agreement. ❞ ❝ The things you’ve done are too terrible to ever be forgiven, and you don’t even know they’re terrible. I will never forgive you. I will never love you. ❞ ❝ You lie when you tell me you’ll never love me. ❞ ❝ I’ve given you your chance to come willingly now. I’ve paid in blood and inconvenience to have you with me by your own choice. But I will take you unwilling, just the same. ❞ ❝ I only have two reactions to bad news - uncontrollable rage and then a sharp left turn into boiling self-hatred. ❞ ❝ This better be really juicy. And weird. Were bicycles involved in some kinky way? Vacuum cleaners? Umbrellas? ❞ ❝ The wishes of our hearts are weapons that can be used against us. ❞ ❝ I think they’ll probably put that on my gravestone. ‘He Was Heterosexual and Had Low Expectations.’ ❞ ❝ It was a little homoerotic, maybe, but I’m secure in my sexuality. ❞ ❝ You must love me. I never thought you’d admit anyone was prettier than you. ❞ ❝ I loved you recklessly from the moment I knew you. I never cared about the consequences. ❞ ❝ There are things we want, down under what we know, under even what we feel. There are things our souls want, and mine wants you. ❞ ❝ I can read your face like a very open, very pornographic book. I wish I couldn’t. ❞ ❝ It doesn’t matter if I hurt you because you belong to me. I can do what I want with you. ❞ ❝ I don’t want other people touching you or owning you or hurting you. I want you to be around, to admire me and to see what I’ve done, what I’ve accomplished. ❞ ❝ You have a dark heart in you, and it is a darkness we share. ❞ ❝ When I am all there is in your world, when I am all that is left, you will love me back. ❞ ❝ Hate me. Rejoice when I die. The last thing I would want now would be to bring you more grief. ❞ ❝ Ghosts are memories, and we carry them because those we love do not leave the world. ❞ ❝ We are all the pieces of what we remember. We hold in ourselves the hopes and fears of those who love us. As long as there is love and memory, there is no true loss. ❞

“Pardon me, but have you lost your mind?” “Please don’t judge me, but I really enjoyed that.” “At the moment I’ll live with the potential for future trouble over the certainty of actual trouble.” “Certainty is not a word I throw around lightly.” “Believe it or not, this place didn’t collapse the moment you walked out the door.” “There are no legacies in this life, are there?” “That fight will be the fight of our lives, make no mistake. But on the other side lies paradise.” “In a moment when stability is at hand and the world is at your feet, your first instinct is to go out in search of someone new to fight.” “Can’t believe you left me for that old lady.” “So you’re deliberately challenging my authority here?” “This is fucking madness.” “You think I’m inciting mutiny?” “So what, then? You preside over a trial that sees me hanged?” “You think I’m gonna let this stand?” “So that’s what this is. You’re annoyed at me, so you’re gonna destroy everything I’ve built.” “You’ve absolutely lost your mind.” “What the fuck are you talking about? ” “You don’t give a shit about money or respect, or the things you’ve built here.” “I’m offering you a life free from them.” “As long as it doesn’t cross me, you’ll hear no complaints.” “I’m gonna push you and your men right into the fucking sea.” “You told me to keep emotion from clouding judgment. To act in everyone’s best interest. I believe that’s what I’m doing.” “In some ways, it had to come to this. Me deciding if you live or die.” “An offense like that demanded an example be made of you. The bloodier the better.” “Today, I’m a little less worried about perception than I used to be.” “You’ll sit in this place and rot with the rest of the whores. Something tells me that’ll sting worse than dying.” “Loyalty, it’s supposed to mean something. It does to me, anyway.” “Time and again he gambles with our lives. That is, when he’s not taking them in cold blood.” “Once more his influence grows and we’re at his mercy with no way to challenge him.” “What exactly do you hope to accomplish by doing this?” “Don’t waste this moment.” “I know we haven’t spoken, but I just want you to know how sorry I am.” “I was standing between you and your dreams for this place. You did what you had to do.” “Nothing is permanent and fates change so quickly.” “Never let anyone stand in between you and your ambitions.” “Today you have everything you have ever wanted.
