the haunting of hill house | book quote starters feel free to change pronouns as preferred. warnings for mentions death.
am i walking toward something i should be running away from?
fear is the relinquishment of logic, the willing relinquishing of reasonable patterns. we yield to it or we fight it, but we cannot meet it halfway.
no one would ever find me there.
all i could think of when i got a look at the place from the outside was what fun it would be to stand out there and watch it burn down.
i have told lies and made a fool of myself.
why do people want to talk to each other? i mean, what are the things people always want to find out about other people?
don’t let me know too surely what he thinks of me. 
people are always so anxious to get things out into the open where they can put a name to them, even a meaningless name, so long as it has something of a scientific ring.
if any of you has trouble sleeping, i will read aloud to you.
i clear breakfast at ten o'clock. i set on lunch at one. dinner i set on at six. it’s ten o'clock.
how do you gentlemen like living in a haunted house?
it gives me an excuse to have a drink in the middle of the night.
nothing upsets me more than being hungry; i snarl and snap and burst into tears.
i am a kind of stray cat, aren’t i?
i do not understand words and will not accept them in trade for my feelings.
i think we are only afraid of ourselves.
she loves beautiful things and i would go with her to find them.
we could go anywhere we pleased, to the edge of the world if we liked, and come back when we wanted to.
i never expected to find you all so nervous.
no one can catch me now; they don’t even know which way i’m going.
it is really unbelievably difficult to get accurate information about a haunted house.
it’s quite a hazard, quite a hazard indeed, people knocking you down.
losing my temper will not help.
i wonder how long she is going to stay?
and how long will you be able to stay?
all i want is to be cherished, and here i am talking gibberish with a selfish man.
first she stole her sister’s lover, and then she tried to steal her sister’s dishes.
i swear i saw bats in the woodwork.
people like answering questions about themselves, what an odd pleasure it is.
people have to live and die somewhere, after all.
what will you give me to remember you by?
you are not going to catch me so cheaply.
i have a suitcase full of mystery stories.

It is not hard to scare someone. Human beings in their core are wired to be afraid, of something, of someone. Naturally, one devides the world into twos, the good and the bad, the we and the other. As far as Arthur can remember, fear has been a driving force in his life. He has feared many things, so he fears the wrath of the Almighty should he not oblige. And eyes are on him, at any times. Even when he steps into the cafeteria. Because the eyes of the almighty are everywhere.
A bell rings when the door is pushed open.
Much to his parents surprise, Arthur has been asigned to ‚assist‘ the daughter of a newling to their group. A pleasent change to the routine-filled life he is usually used to.
Arthur scans the room for the girl he is sent to meet. Hyemi. That is all he knows about her, just a name.
His blue eyes stop at a figure sitting at a table by the window. Dressed in all white, just as he is. That’s how he recognises her.Their eyes meet only briefly before the girl averts her gaze. Her reaction doesn’t dishearten and he approaches.
„Hyemi? That’s you. Right?“

IT HAD BEEN WEEKS SINCE THEY’D BEEN FORCED TO MOVE TO THE COMPOUND. Months that they had been in this god-forsaken town overall and she could feel every minute of it ticking away into her skin, scarring the flesh with it’s reminder that there is part of her missing. 
As if the death of her twin had not been enough, her father had snapped and had lost control over his own emotions and moved his daughter and now his wife under their thumb. Her mother who was missing her son so bad that she began to hallucinate and stayed medicated with some god awful drug that left her barely coherent. On top of it all, they had assigned her a watcher. A boy who was so deeply ingrained with this nonsense of believing, of a heavenly mouthpiece, to indoctrinate her into their little program. 
He would be bearable if he did not spout such nonsense to her and she tried her best to keep out of sight so that he might not find her. A case in point is the way she ducks her head down, as if her hair might conceal her from his view as he walks into the cafeteria and she is forced to withhold a groan as to not draw his attention to her hunched over form, far away from the rest of the believers who talked and praised and made her want to gag.

The sound of chirping draws his attention. Dim light filters through the curtains in front of him, he sees the light of the midday sun glaring through. The house he is in belongs to an acquiantance, so he has a few inhibitions to just walk up there and pull the blinds open.
“I think you have a bird in your room.” His face is now towards the door as he calls for the other. But nobody comes.
How strange, he thinks and averts his gaze to the window again. Another chirp calls his attention and Haneul - despite his better judgement - walks towards it. 
In some cultures, he remembers reading, a bird trapped inside is a token of death. And he pulls the curtains aside.

“Great.”
His distaste is painted all across his face. His blue eyes linger on the single red car now parked just a few feet from him. The road is lonely and he questions his decision to go out for a walk at this hour yet again when he knows that the dark is not his friend and that she only lures him with the promise of quietness.
The door to the passenger seat opens and out comes a familiar figure.
“I really thought I had seen the last of you already”, Haneul scoffs and does not bother to hide the tone of ridicule behind his voice. He twirls a cigarette between his fingers and lets the smoke dance into nothing.
“One might actually think that you’re obsessed with me. And —” He points the cigarette towards the car. “Who did you bring today?”

“I-I can’t get it off —- The blood — don’t- don’t you see it?” Hast eyes search his companion’s. The sound of running water mixes with the sound of his heavy breathing. Hanuel whimpers quietly and scrubs again.
The skin of his hands feels sore and becomes red. The rush of anxiety sends shock waves through his brain and leaves behind a quiet, persistent pain.  “It’s not coming off.”
He collapses to his knees.

“Don’t turn around. Don’t look at them.”
His voice is just loud enough for the other to hear him. His fingers wrap around the sleeve of his companion, pulling at the soft fabric to instruct them to pick up the pace. His gaze stays straight ahead. The street is empty at this hour. The soft yellow light thrown by the street lamps give the illusion of summer nights, but the cold breeze breaks the illusion.
