Crush, Richard Siken/The Silt Verses/The Magnus Archives/ Malevolent/ Mabel/ The Grip of It, Jac Jemc

(Something something about how you can hurt the one person going through all the horrors with you)

Image ID: text compilation

1-I never liked that ending either. More love streaming out the wrong way, and I don’t want to be the kind that says the wrong way.

2-Faulkner: Make for the river. You know the way. I’m sorry. (Carpenter realizes what he’s about to do). Carpenter (raw and vulnerable): Brother. Please don’t. Faulkner (wretchedly): I’m so sorry.

3- I took the bullet for all the wrong reasons, I’d just as soon kill you myself, I say. / You keep saying I owe you, I owe…but you say the same thing every time. / Let’s not talk about it, let’s just not talk.

4-MARTIN: You know I can’t do it, not now; you don’t want to blind yourself; you don’t want to die; what you want is a reason to not do those things, so – you come to me. Well, you’re welcome. B-because I can’t follow you on this one.

ARCHIVIST: The Lonely’s really got you, hasn’t it?

MARTIN: (no hesitation) You know, I think it always did.

5- Arthur: So you’ve been using me from the start.

John: You always knew that.

6-MABEL: What? What? What? What what what what do you want? What do you really want, Anna, what do you have to shelter me from, what do you think I can't take?

ANNA: I just want to talk to you! I just want to have a conversation, not - us- as-archetypes, not you burning and me skeletal and both of us trapped here under the ground, I just want to. I just want to sit down and talk, I just want to - I want to hear you, I don't - I don't even know why I'm yelling, I –

7-I want to flip the light on and scream. I want to rock James and say, “James, you said this was over” and also “I feel like something’s gone wrong in me”, but instead I crawl under the blanket with him and place a hand on his smooth back and rest my lips on his shoulder and I pray.

8- Carpenter (weakly): Just wait- Faulkner listen for just one second, listen to me.

Faulkner (coldly): No. No, I’m not going to.

9-ARTHUR: We’re not ever going to get back to that, John.

JOHN: I know.

ARTHUR: Too much has been said. Too much pain. Too many lies.

JOHN: I know.

ARTHUR: So we’ll try again.

Have you read...

Julie and James settle into a house in a small town outside the city where they met. The move—prompted by James’s penchant for gambling, his inability to keep his impulses in check—is quick and seamless; both Julie and James are happy to leave behind their usual haunts and start afresh. But this house, which sits between ocean and forest, has plans for the unsuspecting couple. As Julie and James try to settle into their home and their relationship, the house and its surrounding terrain become the locus of increasingly strange happenings. The architecture—claustrophobic, riddled with hidden rooms within rooms—becomes unrecognizable, decaying before their eyes. Stains are animated on the wall—contracting, expanding—and map themselves onto Julie’s body in the form of bruises; mold spores taint the water that James pours from the sink. Together the couple embark on a panicked search for the source of their mutual torment, a journey that mires them in the history of their peculiar neighbors and the mysterious residents who lived in the house before Julia and James.

guillermo del toro’s pinocchio is a beautiful film but my god no one has adapted that story like neverafter. you can never look at it the same way again after listening to lou wilson, a black man, explaining that he chose to play as pinocchio because it’s a story about a little boy who isn’t allowed to make mistakes. that in pinocchio's story, he is fundamentally barred from childhood at once upon a time. he must earn something that everyone else is granted from birth. the other boys get to tell lies and play and get into trouble, but when pinocchio does the same thing there are grave and violent consequences. his pinocchio is trying to understand why the world is so unfair, why the rules are so different for him, why everyone else gets to be a real boy.

and I think about it every day.

#I'm sure so many other people have said it better than me but I think it deserves being said a thousand upon a thousand times #lou wilson is a phenomenal talent and storyteller and actor #and his ability to bring that character from the most ridiculous heights of comedy to gut wrenching emotion on a pinhead was unforgettable #I have so much respect for everyone in the dome but I don't think any story gripped me as much as pinocchio #d20 #dimension 20 #d20 neverafter #lou wilson

My picks for Halloween!

Besides the books listed below, you can try author Darcy Coates and/or Joe Hill. Either of them will help you get into the spirit of Halloween. If you are looking for a specific book to read then look no further… Yes, I just read this one recently. If you are interested in a haunted house situation then this may be of interest to you. It keeps a good pace so you don’t loose interest and I was…
