various things spoken in an adventuring party pt.3
a little assortment of quotes and sayings i've found doom scrolling through pinterest that i think an adventuring party would say during their never ending perilous adventures . please do not copy/repost or add to this list, thank you!
Affectionate ❛ how terrible it is to love something that death can touch ❜ ❛ i never craved attention until i tasted yours ❜ ❛ i don’t want to have the world’s attention. Yours is enough. ❜ ❛ you cant just touch my soul and leave ❜ ❛ your hands are scarred from murder, and yet I trust them completely ❜
Questions ❛ you seem somewhat familiar. have i threatened you before? ❜ ❛ why am I so fascinated by you? ❜ ❛ you risked so much for me. why would you do such a thing? ❜ ❛ it’s time you start talking! what did you do?! ❜ ❛ do you really think they were a tender flower you could trample upon? ❜
Banter ❛ i just like to argue with you cause it’s funny. ❜ ❛ unfortunately for everyone, i will keep doing whatever i want. ❜ ❛ i think god is gonna have to kill me twice. ❜ ❛ the next time i open up to someone is my autopsy ❜ ❛ you walk a fine line between beautifully macabre and uncharacteristically psychotic, you know that? ❜
Tragedy ❛ i thought we’d have more time ❜ ❛ if i disappear, will you look for me? ❜ ❛ let us live, since we must die ❜ ❛ i cant live in a world where you dont exist ❜ ❛ i talk to the gods, but the sky is empty. ❜
Fierce ❛ do not forget what i am. ❜ ❛ this destruction will be your rebirth. ❜ ❛ you are filled with poison but blessed with beauty and rage ❜ ❛ when you are not fed love on a silver spoon, you learn to lick it off knives ❜ ❛ you have no power over me. ❜
Antagonistic ❛ leave them at the bottom of the grave they dug for you. ❜ ❛ and you call me a monster ❜ ❛ being against evil doesn’t make you good. ❜ ❛ so, tell me little one, do you want to punish those that have wronged you? ❜ ❛ i’m the friendliest evil person you will ever meet. ❜
BONUS
FROM THE HERO TO THE VILLAIN ❛ running doesn’t matter. I’ll hunt you down if i have to ❜ ❛ no one wearing a crown comes in the name of peace ❜ ❛ our bones are stained with sin, scorched from fire, broken by betrayal, soaked with blood, and yet we still keep fighting! ❜ ❛ you want to kill me? fine. get in line. ❜
FROM THE VILLAIN TO THE HERO ❛ i’ve met scarecrows with more spine than you ❜ ❛ can you hear the screams of the people? can you hear them serenading me as i ascend? their pain is my pleasure in the heavens. they worship me with their grief. and now so will you. ❜ ❛ if bravery had a face, it certainly wouldn’t look like yours ❜ ❛ my power knows no bounds, and your efforts to defy me are like whispers lost in a hurricane ❜ ❛ oh, look at you, attempting greatness! pity it’s just an attempt. ❜

❛ who was that shape in the shadows? ❜
@songsdreamt. / accepting.
crystalline eyes dart to the darker corners of the old selûnite outpost. never have they been to the underdark -- well, all of this is quite new, to be honest, but this was a different type of new. the darkness was not the blue-black of the surface, but a deep purple illuminated by cool-colored mushrooms that grew to their natural size. "a shape?" the paladin quirks an eyebrow. "my gold's on either a rat, or maybe jus' nerves. or shadowheart. b'tween you & me, i think she likes the dark more'n she says." an easy fanged smile to the shorter tiefling, trying to ease the tension.

❛ remember me once in a while — please promise me you'll try. ❜ ❛ where in the world have you been hiding? ❜ ❛ stories like this can't come true. ❜ ❛ close your eyes and surrender to your darkest dreams. ❜ ❛ and you'll live as you've never lived before. ❜ ❛ let your darker side give in. ❜ ❛ who was that shape in the shadows? ❜ ❛ is this what you wanted to see? ❜ ❛ now you cannot ever be free! ❜ ❛ fear can turn to love, you'll learn to see. ❜ ❛ i shall give you one last chance. ❜ ❛ it's useless trying to appease me. ❜ ❛ you're only saying this to please me. ❜ ❛ if he knew the truth, he'd never, ever go. ❜ ❛ it was an accident ... simply an accident. ❜ ❛ why have you brought me here? ❜ ❛ what you heard was a dream and nothing more. ❜ ❛ i'm here, nothing can harm you. ❜ ❛ i'm here with you, beside you, to guard you and to guide you. ❜ ❛ promise me that all you say is true, that's all i ask of you. ❜ ❛ you're safe, no one will find you. ❜ ❛ all i want is freedom, a world with no more night, and you, always beside me, to hold me and to hide me. ❜ ❛ all our fears are in the past. ❜ ❛ why is it secret? what have we to hide? ❜ ❛ [name], what are you afraid of? ❜ ❛ you were once my companion, you were all that mattered. ❜ ❛ why can't the past just die? ❜ ❛ don't make me do this. it scares me. ❜ ❛ we'll be parted forever, he won't let me go. ❜ ❛ am i to risk my life to win the chance to live? ❜ ❛ do i have any choice? ❜ ❛ i know i can't refuse, and yet i wish i could. ❜ ❛ don't think that i don't care, but every hope and every prayer rests on you now. ❜ ❛ you! why did you let this happen? ❜ ❛ but can i trust you? ❜ ❛ i love her! does that mean nothing? ❜ ❛ the world showed no compassion to me! ❜ ❛ did you think that i would harm her? ❜ ❛ why should i make her pay for the sins which are yours? ❜ ❛ this is the choice — this is the point of no return. ❜

what kind of herb are you?
------ cayenne.
everyone says that you're so bright, so loud, so much & maybe you are or maybe you're covering up that gaping wound in your chest with fireworks. or maybe you really are so bright so warm so hot but sometimes you wonder if anything will ever be enough to soothe that aching burning cold fire in your chest. you don't know what it is, can't ever let yourself close enough to that pyre to know if it's anger or fear or loneliness or grief but it's there & if you're good enough, funny enough, bold enough, maybe you can hide it from everyone else. maybe there's enough of you & enough of the world that you can outrun it forever, your own fire bright enough to put that wound to shame. bright enough to prove to everyone, anyone, yourself, your mother, your father, your friends, your classmates, the world, that you're enough. you're enough. you're enough.

“ you know me. i love acting recklessly. ”
mo dao zu zhi. / accepting.
they flash their fellow paladin a sharp toothed grin, hand reaching for the hilt of their greatsword. sure, recklessness isn't always wise, but it is sort of fun when it works out. (in their old life, combat was usually avoided easily. one look at their quartzlike spikes & large teeth sent most enemies running. this form, while easier to make friends in, has less intimidation factor.) "i mean," nari starts, a bit too excited to incite violence, "can't say i'm opposed to the matter. sometimes full speed ahead is th'only way t'go. or at least th'most fun. there's times f'r strategy, but i dunno if this is one."

𝐒𝐇𝐀𝐊𝐄𝐒𝐏𝐄𝐀𝐑𝐄 𝐀𝐄𝐒𝐓𝐇𝐄𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐒.
i. romeo & juliet, suburban july. scraped knees. bruised knuckles. blood in your teeth. bare feet on hot concrete. restlessness. your high school’s empty parking lot. love poems in your diary. a window open to coax in the breeze. burning inside. an ill - fitting party dress. a t - shirt you cut up yourself. the time you tried to give yourself bangs. biking to your friends house. bubble gum. gas station ice. the feeling that you’ve met before. rebellion. a car radio playing down the street. cheap fireworks. a heart drawn on the inside of your wrist with a sharpie. switchblades. red solo cups. dancing in your bedroom. screaming yourself hoarse. running out of options. the forlorn looking basketball hoop at the end of a cul - de - sac. climbing onto your roof at night while your parents are asleep. flip - flops. a eulogy written on loose - leaf. the merciless noontime sun.
ii. hamlet, speaking in a whisper. holding your breath. a browning garden. a half remembered story. furniture covered with sheets. fog at dawn. mist at twilight. losing touch. the ethereal space between winter & spring. the soft skin at your temple. the crack in the hallway mirror. things you’d say if you knew the words. uncombed hair. books with writing in the margins. books with cracked spines. books with lines scratched out. prayers on all souls’ day. a chipped ceramic bathtub. a cold stone floor. the uncomfortable awareness of your own heartbeat. the sparrow that got in your house. shadows. the creek you played in as a child. a dirty night gown. an oversized t - shirt. a collection of your favorite words. soil beneath your nails. ghost stories. the strangeness of your own name in your mouth. deep silence. exhaustion. a cliff with a long, long drop down.
iii. twelfth night, wicker deck furniture. new england summer. large sunglasses & a blonde bob. a storm over the ocean. patio umbrellas flapping in the wind. the smell of chlorine. muffled laughter. sarcasm. starched cuffs. day drinking. bay windows. the idea of love. love for the idea of love. love for love’s sake. hangovers. wandering over the sand dunes. a vagabond with a guitar. fishermen with tattoos. a pretty boy with a slacked tie. a lighthouse. growing too close. boat shoes. feeling yourself change. big, floppy sunhats. double - speak. a song you keep listening to. turning red under their gaze. margaritas drank on an inflatable pool lounger. string lights on a balmy night. sleepy june days. fights you’re unprepared for. hope you weren’t expecting. pranks that go too far. bad poetry. pining. becoming less of a stranger.
iv. macbeth, the space where your grief used to be. a bird that’s lost an eye. old blood stains. heavy blinds. the smell of sweat. the stillness after a battle. a fake smile. a curse. the taste of metal at the back of your tongue. your house, unfamiliar in the dark. a dusty crib. the smell of sulfur. an orange pill bottle. streaks in the sink. a black cocktail dress. your hand on the doorknob, shaking. a chilly breeze. crunching from the gravel driveway on a moonless night. clenched hands. a rusty swing set. a flashing digital clock stuck on 12:00. a snake that crosses your path. an owl that watches you. a dog that runs when you approach. red smoke, dark clouds. cool steel. tile floors. footsteps in the hallway late at night. a baggy suit that used to fit before. visions. insomnia headaches. nursery rhymes. being too far in to go back now.
v. much ado about nothing, the high drama of small towns. a pickup truck. military supply duffel bags in the hall. hugs all around. tulip bulbs. a wraparound porch. a pitcher of iced tea. a rubber halloween mask. someone on your level. ill - timed proclamations. stomach clenching laughter. rushing in. not minding your business. crepe paper. white lies. secrets written down & thrown away. southern hospitality. homemade curtains in the kitchen. a sink full of roses. hiding in the bushes. old friends. the wedding dress your grandma wore, & her mama before her. a dog - eared rhyming dictionary. chamomile with honey. the intimacy of big parties. lawn flamingos. gossip. a crowded church. friendly rivalries. unfriendly rivalries. shit getting real. love at five hundredth sight. not realizing you’re home until you’re there.
vi. king lear, cement block buildings. power lines that birds never perch on. the end of the world. useless words. rainless thunder, heat lighting, a too big sky. arthritic knuckles. broken glass. chalk cliffs. the pulsing red - black behind closed eyes. something you learned too late. wet mud that sucks up your shoes while you walk. a cold stare. empty picture frames. empty prayers. the obscenity of seeing your parents cry. a treeless landscape. bloody rags. grappling in the dark with reaching hands. the sharpness at the the tips of your teeth. the blown out windows of a skeletal house. decay. jokes that aren’t jokes. biting your tongue. prophecies. aching muscles, tired feet. stinging rain. invoking the gods. wondering if the gods are listening. worrying that the gods are dead. white noise. shivers. numbness. the unequivocal feeling of ending.
vii. midsummer's night dream, the smell of wet soil & dead leaves. listening to music on headphones with your eyes closed. wildflowers. the distant sparkle of lightning bugs. a pill someone slipped you. fear that turns into excitement. excitement that turns to frenzy. mossy tree trunks. a pair of yellow eyes in the darkness. night swimming. moonlight through the leaves. a bass beat in your chest. a butterfly landing on your nose. a kiss from a stranger. a dark hallow in an old tree. glow in the dark paint. drinking on an empty stomach. a twig breaking behind you. spinning until you’re dizzy. finding glitter on your body & not remembering where it came from. an overgrown path through the woods. cool dew on your skin. a dream that fades with waking. moths drawn to the light. giving yourself over, completely. afterglow. the long, loving, velvety night.

@0bliveon: [ TIEFLING PARTY. ] A starter where our muses approach one another at the tiefling party, to gossip, chat, dance, or hit on each other. / accepting.
a party. ebnaril has never been to a party before -- dragons are solitary creatures, in the grand scheme of things. they're lingering by their own tent, holding a goblet of wine (it doesn't taste very good, but it's the only option) & watching with curious eyes as the tieflings & their party mingle. then liv approaches, which lights up their eyes anew. "hey! wow! this is nice, right? i've never been to a party before -- don' really know what t' do, so i'm jus' watching." a pause, as crystal eyes sweep over the crowded camp. a smile tugs at their lips, flashing pointed teeth. "s' good, though. that we helped 'em. i didn't know folks could be so hateful, but ... s'nice to have a good night."

𝐍𝐄𝐆𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐕𝐄 𝐐𝐔𝐀𝐋𝐈𝐓𝐈𝐄𝐒 : 𝐳𝐨𝐝𝐢𝐚𝐜 𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 .
adapted from this post ! BOLD what definitely applies to your muse. italicize what somewhat applies to your muse. repost ; do NOT reblog.

"oh!" despite the scientific knowledge that turtles are not usually built like this, they brush that off. a long-nailed hand reaches out to shake, a human custom they've observed in the past month or so. "call me nari. this'll sound strange, especially considering my current appearance, but i happen to be a dragon. albeit ... undercover, i guess." a smile, double set of fangs flashed in friendliness. there's no real way for them to prove this, at least not without considerable publicity & property damage. "so i thought it only fair to ask."
Now, see, Raphael was a dragon fan as a kid -- they were a lot like DINOSAURS, except they could breathe fire and fly ( fun fact: no dinosaur could fly until true birds evolved, pterosaurs are not a dinosaur, contrary to popular belief, ) so suffice to say, he thought they were badass as shit. However...he, obvious to anyone who'd seen a turtle in their life, was a turtle. And he loved being a turtle, certainly more than being a dragon.
" Uh...nooo, but dat'd be badass. I'm a turtle. Box, specifically, I think. " He paused. " ...why, who's askin' ? "

various things spoken in an adventuring party
a little assortment of quotes and sayings i've found doom scrolling through pinterest that i think an adventuring party would say during their never ending perilous adventures . please do not copy/repost or add to this list, thank you!
Affectionate ‘ thank you for loving me when i still tasted of heartache and war ’ ‘ i would rather die because i betrayed them than live because i betrayed you ’ ‘ i believe you are my fate ’ ‘ why aren’t you scared of me? Why do you care for me? ’ ‘ tell me every terrible thing you ever did, and let me love you anyway ’ ‘ you look at me like there is something in me worth looking at ’ ‘ it terrifies me what i would do for you ’ ‘ why do i need anyone else when you exist? ’ ‘ we all eat lies when our hearts are hungry ’ ‘ you allow the world to think you’re a heartless monster, but you’re not. ’
Banter ‘ i have longed to throw something at you; a chair, a fireball , myself. ’ ‘ playing too many little games might get you in trouble, darling ’ ‘ you are an absolutely stunning, murderous little creature ’ ‘ clever as the devil and twice as pretty ’ ‘ a knife? are you flirting with me? ’ ‘ it's all lies, darling. ’ ‘ it seems you respond best to displays of violence. ’ ‘ you have a chilling lack of ethics. ’
Tragedy ‘ i won’t bury another friend ’ ‘ we are good people, and we have suffered enough ’ ‘ that person is never coming back ’ ‘ this freedom tastes like ashes ’ ‘ am i supposed to be grateful that i survived this? ’ ‘ where are these so-called-gods when you need them so much? ’ ‘ bad things happen when angry people grieve ’ ‘ some children are simply born with tragedy in their blood’
Fierce ‘ i am not violent.i am not malicious. i am a result. ’ ‘ you cant burn what’s already been scorched ’ ‘ because fuck you, that’s why. ’ ‘ if i cannot bend heaven, i will raise hell ’ ‘ i won’t ever forgive them, but i still want them to beg for it. ’ ‘ we were born in their world. but they will die in ours ’ ‘ i was born to make the world shake at my fingertips ’ ‘ i wonder which will get you killed faster; your loyalty or your stubbornness? ’ ‘ i will either find a way, or i will make one. ’ ‘ if he puts his hands on you, cut them off. ’
Comedic Relief ‘ sometimes you put a bunch of misfits together and you get a family. sometimes you get a bunch of assholes. ’ ‘ yes, it’s dangerous. that’s why it’s fun. ’ ‘ not to brag, but at least six men have described me as ‘terrifying’. ’ ‘ if you don’t terrify people a little bit, then what’s the point? ’ ‘ as you can see, i’m not dead. ’ ‘ excuse me. I have to go make a scene. ’ ‘ what, from the bottom of my heart, the fuck. ’ ‘ no matter what we do, it's probably not exactly legal. ’ ‘ can you shut the fuck up for one minute? i'm trying to pick this lock. ’

HOW ARE YOU COLOR CODED?
------ grey coded.
grey, a study in dreams, nightmares, & silver linings. you are the type of person who finds the good & the bad in everything. some people might find you annoying. others may call you pragmatic. you see things the way they should be seen, even if that makes you depressed - even if that makes you angry with yourself. you know the world is not as bad as it seems, but you know it's not any better than it was yesterday. you want to fix this, if only starting on your own life & the lives of your friends. & indeed, you're going to need them, your friends. the journey starts here, starts now, with a single step forward. so where are we going, my friend?

PROMPTS FROM SHREK * assorted dialogue from the 2001 film, adjust as necessary
what's that? it's hideous!
well, that's not very nice.
some of you may die... but it's a sacrifice i am willing to make.
whoa, look at that! who'd want to live in a place like that?
that would be my home.
you know, you're really quite the decorator. it's amazing what you've done with such a modest budget.
i like that boulder. that is a nice boulder.
man, this would be so much easier if i wasn't color-blind.
we can stay up late, swapping manly stories.
in the morning, i'm making waffles.
where are you going? the exit's over there!
i have to save my ass.
what kind of a knight are you?
for your information, there's a lot more to me than people think.
you know what else everybody likes? parfaits!
you dense, irritating, miniature beast of burden!
parfaits may be the most delicious thing on the whole damn planet.
hey, don't look at me! i didn't invite them!
we were forced to come here.
hey, what's your problem? what do you have against the whole world, anyway?
look, i'm not the one with the problem, okay?
it's the world that seems to have a problem with me.
they judge me before they even know me.
that's why i'm better off alone.
you're a monster!
i'm not the monster here, you are!
now tell me, where are the others?
my patience has reached its end.
all right then! who's hiding them?
two things okay? shut... up.
do you think he's maybe compensating for something?
so where is this fire-breathing pain in the neck, anyway?
i was talking about the dragon.
men of his stature are in short supply.
hey, where are you going? oh man. i can't feel my toes.
i think i need a hug.
doesn't that bother you?
man, i like you. what's your name?
celebrity marriages. they never last, do they?
it's on my to-do list!
you didn't slay the dragon?
that's not the point!
all right, you're going the right way for a smacked bottom.
you're afraid of your own feelings!
i heard the two of you talking!
man, that was annoying.
oh... oh this is all my fault.
you can't do this to me, [name]! i'm too young for you to die!
turn your head and cough!
believe me, if it was me, you'd be dead.
we must be getting close.
why didn't he come to rescue me?
you're not making my job any easier.
you love this woman, don't you?
i don't want to rush into a physical relationship.
you may remove your helmet, good sir knight.
let's just say, i'm not your type.
this is the part where you run away.
does that sound good to you?
you look... uh... different.
it only happens when the sun goes down.
i didn't know you wrote poetry.
only the true love's kiss can break the spell.
i guess you don't, uh... entertain much, do you?
can i stay with you... please?
