which ancient greek girlboss are you? / ATALANTA

run. breathe. run. keep running. push everyone away. you don't need them. maybe you want--no. keep running. everything you need is right in front of you. your bow. your sword. it's all there. what more can you need? whatever it is, it's not worth it. no love is worth losing over. right? nothing is worth losing over. RIGHT?

random dramatic prompts.

what are these? idk. i distinctly remember writing them in a sleep-deprived daze after i binged four episodes of shad/ow and b/one. lowkey inspired, but not necessarily derived from the series. just following the same intense vibe, if you know what i mean. anyway, bon appetit!

" i need to know what happened. "

" something is clearly bothering you. "

" what am i to you? "

" what are you? "

" i can protect you. "

" you have no idea what you've unleashed. "

" how far would you go to protect the ones you love? "

" this is so much bigger than you realize. "

" stop lying to me! "

" i'd follow you to the ends of the universe. "

" people have died! doesn't that bother you?! "

" home isn't a place. it's you. it's always been you. "

" i don't know how you do this every day... "

" you can talk to me. "

" there's so much you don't know. "

" do you have any idea what you're capable of? "

" i can't let you do this. "

" how do you expect to stop me? "

" oh, darling... don't cry. there was nothing you could've done to prevent this... "

" we're going to change the world, you and i. "

" separate, we're powerful, but together... together we're unstoppable. "

" it's too late. this can't be undone. "

" i would give my life to keep you safe. "

" you're/i'm the only one who can stop this. "

" what have you done?! "

" it's not possible. "

" we can't run from this forever. "

" you're not alone. never have been, never will be. "

" we need a plan. "

" i need you. "

" there's nothing in this world that can keep us apart. "

" there's nowhere else we can run! nowhere else to hide! "

" how could you do this?! "

" i trusted you! "

" was it you? did you do all this? "

" i see a great power in you. but will it save us? or destroy us? "

" you lied to me! "

" we can't fix this. can we? "

" there has to be a way we can stop this! "
