In theory, Kalyba should find it easy to hook up with someone. She’s a beautiful, immortal, powerful witch. Plenty of people would go for that! But she’s exclusively attracted to people who don’t want her back.
So important of Samantha Shannon to invent this sexy evil witch and then say “also, she’s a bit pathetic”. So important.

I love the romantic quotes from The Priory of the Orange Tree but when Niclays said, “I loathe you. I loathe every lash of your eyes, every finger on your hands, and every tooth in your mouth. I loathe you to the very marrow of your bones...You cannot fathom the depth of the enmity I have felt for you. I have cursed your name with every sunrise”...that went pretty fucking hard

Ead: You are the love of my life and I would do anything within reason to make you happy.
Sabran: I would be happy if you ate, stayed hydrated and got a reasonable amount of sleep.
Ead: I said within reason, Sabran. How about I murder that guy?
Sabran: So murder is in reason but proper self care isn't?
Ead: Well, duh. What kind of question is that?

You remember the first day we walked together. You told me about the lovejay, and how it always knows its partner’s song, even if they have been long apart. My heart knows your song, as yours knows mine. And I will always come back to you.
