"You are asking me to marry a criminal to save your butt, God's sake. I think I can talk to you any way I want, all things considered."
Ode to nightingale
My heart aches, and a drowsy numbness pains My sense, as though of hemlock I had drunk, Or emptied some dull opiate to the drains One minute past, and Lethe-wards had sunk: 'Tis not through envy of thy happy lot, But being too happy in thine happiness,— That thou, light-winged Dryad of the trees

Death, always cruel
Death, always cruel, Pity's foe in chief, Mother who brought forth grief, Merciless judgment and without appeal! Since thou alone hast made my heart to feel This sadness and unweal, My tongue upbraideth thee without relief. And now (for I must rid thy name of ruth) Behoves me speak the truth Touching thy cruelty and wickedness: Not that they be not known; but ne'ertheless I would give hate more stress With them that feed on love in very sooth. Out of this world thou hast driven courtesy, And virtue, dearly prized in womanhood; And out of youth's gay mood The lovely lightness is quite gone through thee. Whom now I mourn, no man shall learn from me Save by the measure of these praises given. Whoso deserves not Heaven May never hope to have her company.
Dante Alighieri

"They saved you from the poppy field. Of course, I was the one who planted the poppy field - oh, so long ago now. I wanted to save others, liberate them from the tyranny of a heart. First the poppies put people to sleep. Then my metal mice bring them to me. I feed them a cake with a pollen pill inside-' she gestured to the empty plate and pulled a small vial of pills out of her pinafore pocket- 'not enough to put them to sleep again, just enough to sap their strength so my mice can stop them escaping."

“And you’re certain you’re ready for this?” he asks. “This is only the beginning.” I ride up until he’s but an arm’s length away. “I am certain,” I sign, my determination as solid as the icy ground beneath me. “We have a king to save.”

“I’m sorry,” I whisper, kissing around the plaster over and over, “So sorry.” And it’s not only because I couldn’t save him in time. I’m sorry about being a coward who can’t kiss him in public but hungers for him in private. I’m sorry that I retreated after he ended things when I should’ve fought for him. But most of all, I’m sorry that he even wants me.
The creature in front of me smells like soil and crisp air. Nestled in his white hair sits a crown of gnarled branches that sprout into deep green leaves. A seemingly uncomfortable accessory to highlight his importance. His skin is pale, milky green save for the dark ends of his fingers. His eyes are completely black and glossy. He doesn’t so much as blink as he surveys me from head to toe. His gaze is hot and curious as it runs along my body.
"And I'll save your life again and again, aimlessly hoping you will allow me to stay in it."

“What would you have me do?” Their pink bodies zip in front of my nose. “To complete the ritual, I must mate in the heart of The Great Oak.” That is what legend says will save us all. If ever the power of the tree should wane, an offering of body and spirit made inside its heart will reignite it. Magic is created when two souls become one during the intimate act. It’s primal magic—the type of magic that may have created The Great Oak in the first place.
“You told me to act against my instinct and try to understand what she thinks instead of what my beast dictates. We have a problem, Bran. I think Mia is the one who doesn’t understand and could use your boring lessons. If she truly ends things between us to save my art career, I’ll cut my own wrist and send the evidence of self-mutilation to her fucking brother via post. Perhaps if I do that, she’ll finally understand which one is more important.”
