gods of egypt dir. by alex proyas – sentence starters.

we dedicate this passage on the born day of someone great.  considered as the pride of anderson, south carolina and a recent addition amongst the ranks of our african-american ancestors,  chadwick aaron boseman.  a marvel in his own right with the preservation and dedication to his craft that has forever eternalized his name.  chadwick refused to take on roles that invoked harmful stereotypes towards his community, he maintained and preserved his and the integrity of his people up until his physical passing. the true power of his spirit can be found in his diverse body of work that embodies black experiences.  from the soulful sounds of james brown to the resilience of jackie robinson,  the stories of black heroes that he has portrayed and penned ( hieroglyphic graffiti, deep azure ) will forever be immortalized.  we thank his parents,  carolyn and leroy boseman, his teachers,  and denzel washington,  for giving him the opportunity to bless the world with his talent.

“ that would be unwise. ” “ once a weed, uprooted and burned. ” “ but, what is its truth? ” “ you! turn around. ” “ no, i–well, yes. you know i can’t lie. turn. ” “ i’m not going to risk looking at those tricky eyes of yours. ” “ i’m not even half done. ” “ a child could deduce why you’re here. ” “ i will solve it. ” “ well, draw lots. ” “ this is far too important to risk. ” “ i can recite the true name of the stars. ” “ i have seen the world created from sand and water. ” “ i contain all the wisdom in the universe. ” “ its mystery. its essence. its truth. ” “ apology accepted. now, get out! ” “ careful. i outnumber you. ” “ i thought you were a stray baboon. ” “ your chance of failure is overwhelming. ” “ this is the cleverest strategy you could devise? ” “ playing on my ego? how vain do you think i am? ” “ yes, well. fine. fine! ” “ if i even attempted to explain, your brains would liquify and run out of your ears. ” “ all the time you were apart, she never forgot you. ” “ you know, i think everyone’s a fool. ” “ i find your dependence on chance troubling. ” “ if you continue to survive, i may need to study you further. ” “ that was a completely suitable answer. ” “ then i might as well stop thinking! ”

❛ it’s too dangerous. ❜

“ oh, i am so, so glad you noticed the peril, rey! ” his relief bleeds through as much as his sarcasm. his sigh, exaggerative and overtly whimsical. it was hilarious, she’s a comedian—if she assumed he was foolish enough to not properly plan and think things through. being two steps ahead of your friends while three steps ahead of the enemy is a stratagem he’s been focusing on perfecting lately. dejarik with chewbacca and poe have helped a great deal with that, but that was his little secret alone.

“ that’s why you’re dressing in something more comfortable than all of that, ” a waver of his hand gestures to her signature garb. it’s appropriate wear for planets like for jakku, tatooine, and other hot. finn went into his thermal parka, throwing the bantha-fringed hood over his head.“ hoth isn’t going to be kind to you and neither will i if you die from hypothermia. unless,— ”a thought stops him. he looks at rey quizzically with a lopsided grin stuck to his inquisitive countenance. “ —can you use the force to raise your body’s temperature? ”

that sounded familiar. he’ll assume the reason why he can relate is more twisted than hers and because he thinks this, he refrains from sharing his own story. might be better that way for right now. “ well, i don’t know about people i’m afraid, mate. i just know about me and can only speak for myself.” he holds up a bottle filled with nerf milk for her to take.“ but if you’re looking for a friend, i don’t think there’s a reason why we shouldn’t start. what’s your name? ”

“ congratulations for having one hell of an amazing imagination, buddy. ” the general is quick to draw his blaster out his holster. this is not the day for the gentleman thief or whatever he fancies himself these days to play games. not when there were preparations he had to make for a funeral. the last time they spoke, he had paid him good credits for a job: retrieving information on project resurrection. he had faith in the man’s abilities to get the job done but when word got back to him that kurusu went turncoat, finn had was left with no other choice but to prepare for a confrontation. there’s creeps in this galaxy that will sell their own mothers for a wookie cookie. characters that found religion in blood and credits. finn didn’t think this guy would fall into the scum category, but it is what this traitor wants to make it. “ how much credits are they paying you? ”
