No one gets nemesis and hate-based relationships like V. E. Schwab. Nobody.
It's about the intimacy. It's about the knowing one another even if you don't like one another. It's about how respect doesn't necessarily soften into affection or friendliness. Or conversely, how the deeper the friendship, the more twisted the hate once it's corrupted. It's about your reflection being the most like you but also your polar opposite. It's about having someone who fits the negative space in your life like you fit theirs.

Moment of realization: Kafka was just like any teenage girl trusting her best friend to burn her diary and phone when she dies.

the fact that i'm no longer the same age as the protagonists of novels and films i once connected to is so heartbreaking. there was a time when I looked forward to turning their age. i did. and i also outgrew them. i continue to age, but they don't; never will. the immortality of fiction is beautiful, but cruel.

I can't imagine how empty she felt on that short walk home, after this hug. I can imagine that she felt full of possibilities, what ifs, and lost opportunities... and the weight of that feels like hollowness.

You’re giggling while talking to your boyfriend at 3 a.m., and I’m giggling while reading a 100k+ Marauders fic at 3 a.m... we’re not the same.

My savior
She came to me in a dream
Killed those who hurt me
Said words that moved the pain
Out of my way

you heard of "I love you" "it'll pass" and "I'll go" "and I'll stay", now get ready for "how come no one found me?" "I found you"

I can’t stop thinking about how when Cardan wanted to talk to Jude about the first time they got intimate and she quickly replies she just wanted to get it out of her system, Cardan asks her “Did you? Get it out of your system?”
But what he meant was “Did you get ME out of your system, because I can’t get you out of mine nor do I want to. I only fell in deeper.”
Her reply about wanting to just get it out of her system hurt him.
When he had said “This is a terrible idea.” as he was kissing her and taking of his shirt, he didnt mean terrible as in things are gonna get weird and akward between them. He meant this was going to rattle him to the bones. This was going to make him fall in deeper for her. This was a terrible idea for him because he knew she didnt reciprocate his feelings and HE was vulnerable and going to end up hurt. It was a terrible idea for HIM.

Will: I hate it when people ask "are you seeing anyone?" Do you mean a therapist, dating, or hallucinations?
Will: I mean the answer to all of those would be yes and also the same person but that's besides the point
