I probably should post a full thing eventually, but I probably won’t be on most of my other blogs besides @ofthescrolls until sometime in May at the soonest.

Earlier, my teacher told me I had a ‘red flag’, while taking a test, but hasn’t told me what it is. So, next time I am on campus, I’ll just have to ask a place if I can use their testing centers... so he CAN’T claim I am cheating. I really think it was when I was talking to myself or ‘noise from another room’, which I have no... control over.
#( ooc tag. )#/and he's said he WILL fail me and report me to the school if it happens again#/but he hasn't said exactly WHAT triggered it

“I think I can get along famously with anyone.” It was a jest, truly. However, it was one that Cain believed to be fact - he could get along with anyone, but they might not like his company.
Tolerance and acceptance were not the same. Nor would he ever confuse them, but . . . it was easier to jumble the both into one. Even if they were nothing alike.
A slight smirk pulled at his feature when Dream was mentioned. “I can speak for myself.” A truth, but not entirely of the sort. Cain was still bound by some of the rules; permission was simply formality. Formality by Cain was always accepted and request were normally approved.
However, the reality of the matter was that all Cain required to do anything was a will. In this case, he supposed that it could be quite an amusing feat to see how it would play out - in both the case of Loki and how Dream would quite possibly react to it in the longer scope of things.
“I’ve needed one for quite some time. More these days since the House has developed a mind of it’s own.” All the same, it had been quite some time since he walked the world without a quest, a mission or some general long-term plan. Not only would it be a breath of fresh air.
It would be exciting as well.
“honesty is a somewhat overrated virtue.” // @firstmurderer
“Cain,” she hummed, “has anyone ever told you that you’d get on famously with my father?”
The statement was wretchedly unfair to the old giant, but it sprang to tongue fully-formed. Each living thing had its limits, it nerves, and she did not doubt Cain would press at each Loki possessed.
Except for the treatment of ones brother, perhaps. Even then, she reckoned her father was closer to Abel than Cain, as such things were measured. If one could measure such a thing.
“We should ask your Lord if you can be borrowed. We’ll make a weekend of it, find where Father’s hiding this month and see which of you makes the better liar. Think of it as a vacation.” Even as the words flowed from her, she knew better than to tease. It was time to bring everything back around.
“You’ll have to make due with him, you see. Overrated as it might be, I find the art of honesty to be one of my only virtues.”

IT’S ALL ABOUT THE YEARNING
❝ you need someone. let me be that person. let me be what you need. ❞
❝ look, i dunno if i’m the kind of person you need or even want right now. but i’m looking around and i’m the only one who’s here. ❞
❝ i never realized how much i needed you until you were the one person who wasn’t there. ❞
❝ you asked me once, if i would ever take a chance on us…maybe that ship sailed. but. ask me again? sometime— doesn’t have to be today. maybe tomorrow just. ask me again. ❞
❝ i know i can’t protect you from everything, but i wish you’d let me protect you from the things i can control. ❞
❝ i used to have so much faith. maybe not in deities or something but, in the world. the universe. i believed their was a purpose to it all. i’m not sure when i lost that. ❞
❝ have you ever had something…missing? like something just doesn’t feel right inside you but you don’t know what it is. ❞
❝ sometimes, i just need the world to be beautiful. i know how dark and ugly it can be but i just want to see something good and focus only on it for a few minutes. ❞
❝ i was sort’ve hoping you needed me. is that selfish? ❞
❝ people need someone to see them for what they are and not just see it but accept it. i want to be that person for anyone i can…but it can be so suffocating to be that person and also remain unseen. ❞
❝ sometimes i feel i’m being crushed under the weight of everything i’ll never be. ❞
❝ you’re looking at me but you’re not seeing me. do you know how that feels? just see me. please. ❞
❝ i want to deserve you. i’m trying to deserve you. ❞
❝ i know i fucked up. i know i did but don’t shut me out anymore. let me in. please let in. ❞
❝ every time you smile at me, i memorize it. i remember each moment that i get to be the one to bring out that light inside you. no matter what happens between us, that’s what i’ll remember. ❞
❝ i can’t help but think there’s got to be something out there for me, somewhere. just some place where i actually feel like i belong. ❞
❝ the world is so big. why do i never feel like i fit into it? ❞
❝ when i’m with you i feel like myself. i feel like every side of me is present and accepted. and i feel good about it— i feel good about who i am when i’m with you. ❞
❝ do you like me? i know you love me. i know you care about me but. do you like who i am? ❞
❝ i want to look in the mirror one day and not feel uncomfortable with my own reflection. ❞
❝ just take my hand and close your eyes. pretend we’re anywhere else but here. ❞
❝ so, what would you be? if you had to power to change all the things making you unhappy, what would your life look like? ❞
❝ do you even know what it does to me? every time i see you cry, any time you’re hurt even the smallest bit it just— do you realize how deeply you’ve imbedded yourself into my heart? ❞
❝ i don’t feel like a whole person without you anymore. i don’t fucking care if anyone else would say about that. you’re part of who i am now. the most important piece of me. ❞
❝ every time you walk away you take another piece of me with you. ❞
❝ i’m only really living in the moments when we’re together. the rest is just existing until you look at me again. ❞
❝ it feels like there’s a string around my heart and it’s connected to you. everywhere you go you’re just tugging me behind, pulling me towards you. ❞
❝ you’ve got me in the palm of your hands. you could crush me and i would still thank you for touching me at all. ❞
❝ i no longer know where i end and you begin. you’ve wound yourself around my soul so tightly, you’re all i feel anymore. ❞
❝ you’ve stolen my heart, the least you could do is tell me what you intend to do with it. ❞
❝ i don’t have perfect words. i’m not the kind of person who knows how to sound poetic and shit. so all i know what to tell you is that i belong to you. i don’t know if you want me. but i’m yours. and at this point however it is you need me, i’m here. ❞
❝ you’re the only thing that matters anymore. i can’t eat, i can’t sleep— all the goddamn cliches from every stupid movie and song. you’re all i think about. i’m useless except when i’m yours. ❞
❝ i haven’t stopped thinking about the way you laugh. i’m hoping i’ll get to hear it again. ❞
❝ when your eyes are on me, i feel like something worth seeing. ❞
❝ just let me look at you for a little bit. ❞
❝ i would do anything for you. all my lines and rules. they mean nothing when it comes to you. it’d cross and break them all just to make you happy. ❞

I can’t believe I am finally, at long last, close to finishing the Sandman tv series.

there was a fair amount of distrust or perhaps even resentment. no matter the case or rather, the cause of the feeling - it was still there. perhaps that was the problem, but at the same time … cain lacked the feeling to pinpoint it or even care.
“not everyone spends their entire time in your realm, dream.” no doubt it was not the smartest choice of words, but even as he spoke the words, they even felt smaller.
they were not as powerful as he would have wanted. shrinking - something he was not fond of. true, it may not have been the intention, but intimidation was what cain was feeling. that feeling turned to anger and more specifically malice.
“you above all should know what they’re like and capable of,” there was a pause, “what i am capable of… if the opportunity presents itself.”

“Well maybe next time y’ don’t take the visage as the progenitor vampire and things’d go a lot better for everyone.” Stupid Keepers and their stupid penance for getting their hands on the stories—or at least that’s what his research had claimed anyways. He was never going to understand any of them in any lifetime ever…
“… Y’ didn’t go and try to open a portal yourself now, did you? ‘cause I don’t think the House’d appreciate going through that a second time.” Or third, or fifth, or however many. John wasn’t about to pretend he fully understood how it worked despite having lived in it for some time himself. “Fine, fine… no choice, like usual then. Must be important then, though I’m going on record as saying next time I see your master, I’m billing ‘im.”
“Perhaps you shouldn’t judge what I choose to look like. I may live in the Dreaming, but he did NOT create me. Nor do I serve him.”
Such a move was bold - even risky - yet it was the right thing in his mind. More specify, the most right and no doubt important thing. If only because he didn’t want to be lumped together with everyone else.
“The house will survive. It always does. Just as it always comes back to ME.” Not necessarily the best report, but for the time being, Cain failed or rather, lacked the ability to care. “Such as the way of eternity.”
“Unfortunately for you, if you happen to go making your way back to Dream,” he says, pausing for a moment, “I might have to let slip a few things to a few friends. Fair is fair after-all, isn’t it?”

[ TXT Unknown ]—……………
[ TXT Unknown ]—I have so many concerns right now.
[ TXT Unknown ]—Is this karma for taking a drunk dare to put my number on a stall in the bogs?
[ TXT Unknown ]—By the way, please lose this number if you’re gonna be texting about cannibalism. I got enough weird in my life as it is.
[ TXT - John ] - So, that was you.
[ TXT - John ] - No, I have more important things on my mind as well.
[ TXT - John ] - However, I don’t think I will lose it.
[ TXT - John ] - I think this will be amusing.
[ TXT - John ] - For the both of us.
