the babysitter lives.
dialogue prompts from the babysitter lives by stephen graham jones.
your house. your paranoid rules.
you learned your lesson?
have you figured out what you're being for halloween?
keep your eyes closed. you can't look.
what kind of game is this?
who rings their own doorbell?
we're not supposed to answer the door.
the polite thing to do would be to back off.
most bullies run when they see you're not going to cringe and cry.
classic non-answer with a side helping of deflection.
i don't want to leave you.
i won't let you hold yourself back because of me.
you've let yourself get spooked.
if it's real to you, then it's real to me.
i know i ruined your life.
where do we go when we leave?
is something wrong with the house?
i'm counting to ten. go.
it wasn't just in my head.
i'm not a hero. just a survivor.
we can find a place to pull over on the way home.
i'm the only one who calls you ___.
this can't be happening. this isn't real.
a mother knows, doesn't she?
it was supposed to be a study session.
when the brain is full, the body must play.
this already happened. but not like this.
are you in my closet again?
you're still there, aren't you?
so, this is death.
i hate my mind sometimes. all the time.
don't open doors you don't need to open.
have a mission, and stick to it.
i wish my mom were here.
you can see me?
i don't walk like that.
i think this house is like a venus flytrap.
you've been waiting all these years?
you can't save me anymore.
don't bleed on the rug.
you're real?
is this even living?
forget that, if you can.
you can't be who you were anymore.
nothing good happens after midnight.
why do you care about me now?
either know, or don't know. don't give other people room to make your decisions for you.
you don't get to be me.
just because i was homeschooled doesn't mean i'm stupid.
never give the enemy a hand.
i won, but i'm still losing.

“can we talk a little before you go to sleep?”
she fiddles with the phone pressed to her cheek. it's warm from overuse and she doesn't care. darkness has already encircled her bedroom; it is far later for her than it is for penelope.
"you've got me all night, penny."
it doesn't matter to her that she has work in the morning. penelope's on the phone. there's a voicemail that plays on loop sometimes, over and over again, and it's in penny's voice and her words and - well.
if she needs to talk, then she needs to talk.
it's the very least she can do.

“ well. there goes my favorite shirt. ” ( thirteen )
"i've got a locker full of them." you wouldn't believe the amount of times a shirt needs changing on this job - nevermind the amount of times she's had to dress up or dress down for an interview, or do a mild amount of undercover on the fly.
"more worried about you."
she offers the woman a hand. most of the time, when people have names that have a the in front of them, they're a serial killer. emily's not going to rule that out, but so far so good. she doesn't present like one, certainly.
"come on. let's get you cleaned up. that doesn't look life threatening, but my unit chief would probably tell you not to take advice from me. i got whacked in the head by a two by four recently and fought going to the ambulance."

you don’t think i can tell when you’re lying? (jj @ emily)
"i think that, over the years, i've developed an ability to lie that can fool most people." that doesn't necessarily answer the question, does it? emily never promised to answer the question; so that solves that. "it's why i'm good at poker. and my job."

𝐃𝐎 𝐑𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐆𝐄
who wants a bite of me?
listen babe, nothing is as it seems.
god, you sound like you want to wear her skin.
do you think I did too much?
do you want me to push her in the pool? do you want me to light her hair on fire?
you look incredible tonight.
how could you do this to me?
baby, come on. I would never do this.
channel that anger into getting what you want.
why would he do this to me?
I hated myself for letting my guard down.
peaking in high school is cringe.
you have a really weird energy.
I don’t need your pity.
you insufferable cunt! I know you did this!
I don’t even do cocaine!
you think I framed you?
do you still not want my pity?
I know what it’s like to get screwed over by someone you thought you could trust.
you really had that pent-up, huh?
you look like you want a grilled cheese. let’s get you a grilled cheese.
I thought you were gonna put out a hit on me or something.
okay, I’ll just go fuck myself.
to be honest, I’m still recovering.
I just want to say how sorry I am for what happened to you last year.
oh, I’m sorry ‘school house rock’, are you dragging my sentence structure right now?
we won’t get caught, that’s the whole point.
I don’t want to make her pay. I want to burn her to the ground.
you’re giving off some serious glenn close in fatal attraction energy right now.
I can ruin her in my sleep.
I’m Frankenstein, and you’re Frankenstein’s bad bitch.
your new vibe is high-status cunt.
sometimes you have to pretend to be someone else to get what you want.
oh my god, don’t be so dramatic.
you called me a human birkenstock.
I’ve always been very intrigued by what you do here.
cool.
my ex-girlfriend is mad that I hooked up with my ex-boyfriend.
make revenge mommy proud.
are you stalking me?
I like your shirt. did it come with a bag of granola and a matching pair of Tevas?
what are you doing here?
that’s the exciting part of getting to know someone; you’re a mystery until you’re not.
the orgy usually starts around sundown.
can we talk about it, please?
well, we’re not having sex. you can go fuck yourself.
tell me something nobody knows about you.
I’m interesting, and you want to impress me.
what do you want to be?
we’re all just performing.
this feels illegal.
I want her to hit me with her Tesla and then reverse back over me.
I want her to stuff me like a taxidermy doll and then mount me on her wall like a prize.
I want her to hide my body in the woods and then start the search party trying to find me.
I am so proud of you. this is going to be the best night ever.
I feel like a little butterfly!
it’s called double assurance, sweetie. look it up.
are you on mushrooms?
your instincts were right.
you know you don’t have to be brave with me.
this sucks. it’s allowed to suck.
do you think I’ll feel better?
I’m just so angry all the time.
sometimes it just hurts to exist, you know?
I just want to feel normal again.
I like you; you’re just like me.
I didn’t know you were an artist.
rude… but fair.
don’t equate your worth to some archaic idea of what the best means.
can I say something that might make you very uncomfortable?
I’m shocked! this is shocking news!
we’re casting spells tonight, bitch.
ban men!
get in there and eat that ass, is what I’m saying!
don’t do that! don’t pity me, and definitely don’t touch me!
I lost everything! fucking everything!
they need to feel the consequences of what they did to me.
they have to pay. all of them.
I feel like I’m being eaten alive from the inside, actually.
do you ever look around and just think, how did I get here?
all this shit, it’s just armour.
I really like you. I wanna tell you everything.
everything I thought I hated was exactly what I always wanted.
what’s going on in that head of yours?
I just need a little distraction from all the stress.
can’t we put all this ugliness aside?
I think you handled that very well.
nice entrance.
what do you think you’re doing?
you don’t even answer my texts!
those people do not care about you.
they’re not your friends.
oh my god, you’re pathetic.
none of this is real!
are you any different from them?
are you sure? there’s never been any evidence.
I mean this from the bottom of my heart: fuck you.
did you overhear that?
you said some pretty messed up stuff out there.
someone was probably messing with you.
from the bottom of my heart, I wish you nothing but the worst for the rest of your miserable fucking existence.
I love your ear balls.
sleep with one eye open, bitch.
I’ve had the upper hand the entire time.
you made this pretty easy, I gotta say.
you’ll never get away with this.
I didn’t eat. I didn’t sleep anymore.
where does this game end?
there is nothing else you can take away from me.
I’m going to make sure that you’re stuck with your pain forever, because I am stuck with mine.
if you want to ruin me, go ahead. I’m not helping you.
I promise I can explain.
I had no choice!
do you ever think about anyone other than yourself?
I really wanted this to work, but it just doesn’t.
I was deciding between this and elsa, but I kind of thought you weren’t an elsa person, although you are a frigid bitch.
I’m sorry that I hit you with my car.
there’s nothing vapid people love more than making other peoples’ tragedies about them.
don’t cry. it’s alright.
I wish it could have been different.
what should have felt exhilarating just felt rotten.
how did you know I’d be here?
I miss you.
it shouldn’t have taken an accident for me to realize that, and I’m sorry.
I think you’re lucky.
I don’t feel free. I feel like I got hit by a car.
I give up. I’m done.
show everybody what a bad bitch looks like.
I created you, and I can just as easily destroy you.
I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have said that.
we can’t erase what we did to each other, but I don’t want to hurt you anymore.
you might be the only real friend I’ve ever had.
I will regret what I did to you forever.
I’m sorry…. for everything.
did you just enter doing a slow clap, you cliché piece of shit?
you really are the devil.
I thought we had a whole will-they, won’t-they thing going on.
where are you going with this?
I know all your secrets now.
no one would’ve given a shit about you if it wasn’t for me.
why the fuck are you laughing?
goddamn do I love you right now.
I think we might be fucked-up soulmates.
you are a very lucky girl.
fuck you. we’re over.
I think you should leave.
I don’t want to be that person anymore.
everything you’ve done, everything that’s happened to you, has brought you to this moment.
fuck figuring out who you’re meant to be. stay lost as long as you can.
I wanted to do something cute, like a grand gesture.

i can tell when you're lying. ( hotch. )
"i can tell when you're lying."
you don't live the life she has if you can't tell when someone - anyone - is lying. really, just about anyone. there's about two people in the world who can fool her, and he is not one of them.
( one of the people who can fool her is herself. that leaves her at a consistent one, and it's her cat when he's lying about whether she fed him. )
"you have tells like every other human on this planet. i know you're human, i've seen you eat lunch."

“let me stop you for a second.”
she stops pretty instantly. "yeah?" one eyebrow arches. "throw it at me."
0 notes
if something was wrong, i would tell you.
"i've heard that one before."
damn near invented it. put the words in the order and patented it and everything else.
"at least tell me before it gets out of hand."
0 notes
“ no. don’t move. you need to stay still. ” ( jj )
"oh, god, when have i ever listened to that before?"
she's not entirely conscious before she's saying the sentence. in any sane person's book, that would be a record. it's emily, though, so it's not. it hardly breaks even.
"please tell me it's at least going to be one of those stories that gets passed around like a legend and not something someone calls derek about."

PROMPTS FOR THINGS FRIENDS SAY TO EACH OTHER
* assorted dialogue for a multitude of friendly and platonic conversations and situations ranging from soft to dramatic, adjust as necessary
of course i love you. you're my best friend.
i really couldn't do this without you.
did you just call me your best friend?
that's what friends are for.
if you know me so well, what's my favorite color?
remember when they mistook us for siblings?
you're the only person i've ever trusted.
i know i can count on you for anything.
do you approve of them?
there's nothing i wouldn't do for you.
if something was wrong, i would tell you.
i can tell when you're lying.
okay, now tell me the truth this time.
i'm not leaving you behind.
i don't know what i'd do if i lost you.
let's not fight like that again.
i always knew you would accomplish amazing things.
that wasn't fair of me to say to you.
i'm sorry i upset you.
i know everything about you.
maybe we should go someplace fun.
will you be in my wedding?
we've been friends for years. you think i didn't know?
i figured you'd tell me when you were ready.
you called me your best friend.
if it matters that much to you, we'll do it.
i just want you to be happy above all else.
you deserve a whole lot better, you know.
i wish you could see yourself the way i see you.
you've always been there for me, no matter what.
i'd risk my life to save you.
we need a girls trip.
i know you better than you know yourself.
you don't think i can tell when you're lying?
you can't get anything past me.
as your best friend, i have to step in.
that's wrong, and you know it.
i love you, but not in that way.
we need to get out of here. just us.
you mean the world to me.
you deserve better than the way they treat you.
i think i have a right to express my honest opinion when it comes to my best friend.
the only way we survive this is if we work together.
you trust me, don't you?
we could sit for hours in silence, and i'd still love the time we spent together because it was with you.
i can tell you anything, and you won't judge me.
maybe we should take a trip together, just us.
i'm so happy for you and the life you've created.
you know me so well.
one day we'll end up in rocking chairs on a porch together, complaining about everything.
you're like a sister to me.
you're like a brother to me.
you're practically family at this point.
if you asked me to help you hide a body, i would.
no one messes with my best friend.
excuse me, but i'm your best friend. i think i have a right to know.
i've known you all my life.
i hate it when we fight.
