[poirot]

Life is funny isn’t it? When you think you’ve got it all figured out, when you finally begin to plan something, get excited about something, and feel like you know what direction you’re heading in, the paths change, the signs change, the wind blows the other way, north is suddenly south, and east is west, and you’re lost. It’s so easy to lose your way, to lose direction.

[poirot]

I love you, Doctor. I never say things like that. That's why you got me.

[poirot]

I just think I’ve always been sensitive and had difficulty containing my feelings, and I’ve always searched for outlets for that, because otherwise those feelings come out in chaotic ways that aren’t always great.

[poirot]

Rich people are naive. No resentments. No creases on them. It all gets ironed out. Money is an iron. Those creases all get smoothed out.

“i think that i've always been attracted to characters who are positive and come from a very innocent place. i think there's a lot of room for discovery in these characters and that's something i always have fun playing.”

[poirot]

Is everything all right? Is everything all right? Hmm, hold on a minute, let me see… My mom is going out with my Algebra teacher, a subject I’m flunking, by the way; my best friend hates me; I’m fourteen years old and I’ve never been asked out; I don’t have any breasts; and oh, I just found out I’m the princess of Genovia.

mythology meme: poseidon

❝ I smile o'er the wrinkled blue­ Lo! the sea is fair, Smooth as the flow of a maiden’s hair; And the welkin’s light shines through Into mid-sea caverns of beryl hue, And the little waves laugh and the mermaids sing, And the sea is a beautiful, sinuous thing!  ❞ ― Lucy Maud Montgomery, The Sea Spirit

CHROLLO LUCILFER

I am the head, and you are the legs of the spider. Natural law dictates that the legs blindly follow the head. However this simply represents a chain of command. It doesn’t apply to my life of death. If I happen to die, one of you can replace me. And there may come a time when a leg has more importance than the head. Make the right call. My orders are top priority. However, I am not your top priority. Our goal is not to keep an individual alive, but the spider. Never forget that.

―★ Happy birthday, mi vida.

[poirot]

Life is suffering. It is hard. The world is cursed, but still you find reasons to keep living.

"What have they done to me, Fitz? Gods, what have they done to you, to mark you so? What has become of me, that I did not even know you though I carried you in my arms?" His cool fingers moved tentatively down my face, tracing the scar and the broken nose. He leaned down suddenly to rest his brow against mine.

[poirot]

Dearest Cecilia, the story can resume. The one I had been planning on that evening walk. I can become again the man who once crossed the surrey park at dusk, in my best suit, swaggering on the promise of life. The man who, with the clarity of passion, made love to you in the library. The story can resume. I will return. Find you, love you, marry you and live without shame.
