THE TORTURED POETS DEPARTMENT - THE ANTHOLOGY BY TAYLOR SWIFT PROMPT LIST *  assorted lyrics from the album, some lines slightly adapted for meme purposes but feel free to adjust as necessary

even if it's handcuffed, i'm leaving here with you.

trust me. i can handle a dangerous man.

i love you. it's ruining my life.

does it feel all right to not know me?

i am who i am 'cause you trained me.

quick. tell me something awful.

i loved you the way that you were.

we were just kids, babe.

i can fix him.

you and i go from one kiss to getting married.

you said i'm the love of your life.

way up there, i actually love it.

i just don't understand how you don't miss me.

do you hate me?

did you think i had it in me?

what if i told you i'm back?

i still miss the smoke.

i'm not trying to exaggerate, but i think i might die if it happened.

you look like stevie nicks.

it's hell on earth to be heavenly.

i still can't believe it.

this happens once every few lifetimes.

didn't you hear? they called it all off.

it's happening again.

my friends say it isn't right to be scared.

i might just die.

fuck you if i can't have us.

tell me about the first time you saw me.

are you gonna marry, kiss, or kill me?

no one's ever had me... not like you.

stay away from her.

there wouldn't be this if there hadn't been you.

i don't think you've changed much.

that's where i was when i lost it all.

life was always easier on you than it was on me.

i hoped you'd return.

do you believe me now?

what if your eyes looked up and met mine one more time?

what are the chances you'd be downtown?

is it something i did?

oh, we must stop meeting like this.

they say what doesn't kill you makes you aware.

i'm not a donor, but i'd give you my heart if you needed it.

looking backwards might be the only way to move forwards.

the story isn't mine anymore.

what a charming saturday!

none of it is changing.

wild winds are death to the candle.

one bad seed kills the garden.

i'm bitter, but i swear i'm fine.

this place made me feel worthless.

i didn't want to come down.

everything had been above board.

blood's thick, but nothing like a payroll.

you can mark my words that i said it first.

the professor said to write what you know.

all of this to say, i hope you're okay.

your words are still just ringing in my head.

i built a legacy which you can't undo.

who do i have to speak to to change the prophecy?

the effects were temporary.

no, i'm not coming to my senses.

babe, you gotta fake it 'til you make it.

you know you're good when you can even do it with a broken heart.

i guess a lesser woman would've lost hope.

thought of calling you, but you won't pick up.

you're a professional.

long may you reign.

you're an animal. you are bloodthirsty.

now i seem to be scared to go outside.

i don't believe in good luck.

i hate it here.

if i'd been there, i'd hate it.

only the gentle survived.

i'm lonely, but i'm good.

you have no room in your dreams for regrets.

i thought it was just goodbye for now.

are you still a mind reader?

let it once be me.

i haven't decided yet.

i still dream of him.

i'm so afraid i sealed my fate.

it was always the same searing pain.

i can't forgive the way you made me feel.

it wasn't a fair fight or a clean kill.

she used to say she wished that you were dead.

tell me all your secrets.

they tried to warn you about me.

you're in terrible danger.

i'm the life you chose.

yes, i'm haunted, but i'm feeling just fine.

no one asks any questions here.

tell me i'm despicable. say it's unforgivable.

i'm running back home to you.

you should see your faces.

you knew the price going in.

was any of it true?

who the fuck was that guy?

i don't ever want you back.

did you sleep with a gun underneath our bed?

you don't get to tell me you feel bad.

you wouldn't last an hour in the asylum where they raised me.

am i allowed to cry?

there's no such thing as bad thoughts. only your actions talk.

they're going to crucify me anyway.

i know i'm just repeating myself.

that's the closest i've come to my heart exploding.

" it ain't all that it's cracked up ta' be. " she says , shrugging it off and thinking of what it would be like to experience it all again for the first time. Traveling , her own ship , everything in between. . . . Cherri stretches her arms up and then back against the bench they're seated at. " people 'r still people no matter what species. . . it's just all about adjustin -- "

" why ya' wanna go up there or somethin ? "

@ravagercherri liked this post!

❛ So, you’ve actually been to space? ❜ Technically, hasn’t she also been to some version of space? Sure, it was Barbieland space on the way to Los Angeles but that counted, right? Maybe human being space was different though! ❛ What’s it like up there? ❜

[ravagercherri]

should she be nice? What was life if she didn't take risks? She was able to handle herself if it got to that point. . . . but Cherri danced a dangerous dance with life even getting out of bed in the morning

. . . so picking a stranger off the street was no different right?

" I mean , my place ain't too far from here so -- " she hints , but it wouldn't just be an offer. " I mean I could be nice 'nd help ya' but what's gonna be in it fer me ? "

" I ain't gonna be tailed by some guys who wanna kill me if I end up helpin' ya , would I? "

No rest for the wicked.

No sooner than his leather clad ass hits the pavement is he spotted. His ribs feel like they're concaved.

A quick look, assesses the posture, the weapon, the voice. Female, impaired. He's heard of some suited hero in the Kitchen, the rumors. Knows better than to underestimate someone.

"Gee...thanks." Might just let them. Die in an alleyway in a puddle of questionable. Always figured that'd be how it happened. Wrong place etcetera.

"You know of any place I won't?"

[ravagercherri]

what a curse it was. No matter how much she fought , there was no way she could continue to work. The pounding headache and the feeling of someone sitting on her chest. ( a combination of sickness & anxiety that she would not be able to get the job done correctly. ) It felt humiliating to rely on someone. She did not need to be watched this closely , if it was going to be like this . . . . then there was no point in leaving home.

Weak and protestant is the noise that results from the gentle scolding she gets. Later. There was always time for later for everyone except Cherri. Whatever cruel God was in charge was constantly keeping her from her work. How were they going to get anywhere without her maps? What was the limit to how many times she could spend in medical before they realized she was a burden and they threw her away just like the crew before?

Cherri would have stumbled and fell forward if she wasn't being held , and it's a good thing he's leading them because she has no idea where her head is right now. She's trembling when hands try to purchase something on him as well , fear instinctively telling her she'd fall. She could become foggy headed searching for an answer as to what went wrong now, how long would her medical makeup make her sit and fend this episode off.

" yer' a great liar y'know cause we both know that ain't true. "

" Ughhhh -- I don't CARE! " she complains , shutting her eyes when the headache starts to get worse. It was like poking a bear. " just tell whoever ta' do whatever so I can just leave! "

he supposes it’s best to go to her quarters  &  call for someone there.           ❝    i can,   but you need to tell me who your favorite nurse is.   i still need to contact someone.   i am not a medical professional.   how about Ms.   Chapel    ?  you like her    ?  she sure likes you.    ❞

oh she'd lost track of time again hasn't she? Cherri hadn't noticed until a familiar voice had gotten her out of that head of hers. She's sitting on the dirt that covered their beloved colony , staring at the ship port waiting for another familiar someone to return. It sucked. Feeling like this . . . . the fear of the unknown , without contact how would she know if he was still alive.

It had been MONTHS since she'd last seen Quill. Hell , she'd visited more than once , surely that was enough right? No , she'd been like that with him for as long as she could remember. Safety didn't come naturally to her , but when she finally covered up that hole in her heart with a brotherly figure that actually cared about her? Cherri didn't really want to let that go.

Her hand curls and Cherri avoids eye contact.

" do ya. . . -- " she would start. " do ya think he's okay? "

" i don't know just everything I've ever done wrong I guess , ya' know everythin' all at once . . . . " she says pressing her head in her hands and immediately frustratingly rubbing at her head because of course she wanted to pull all of her hair out!!

" just normal thoughts at four am , what else is new? "

" that ain't lookin' too good. " she says , leaning up against the cold brick of an unknown building. She'd just gotten off a job , but it wasn't uncommon to find people littered through the streets. She wonders what his story is . . . . Cherri always seemed to stick her nose where it didn't belong.

She readjusts herself on her mobility aid , her hand tightening around the crutch but that's the only slight indication she was nervous.

" ya' ain't dead are ya? cause this alley I think belongs to someone and they might actually kill ya when they get back. "

"I heard what happened. Let me help."

" I said AGAIN , I ain't gonna need it. " is Cherris' reply as she tries her best to navigate with the use of her cane. " I can manage on my own , besides , don't ya' got like . . . some kind of big boy hero shit to do? " It was a pretty nasty fall she'd taken , but she didn't need someone to come and pick her up and help. " yeah? ya heard from who exactly ? "

She has to finish this , but she can barely lift her arms , let alone get up off the couch . . . the papers that are spread out with nonsensical scribbles that had some sort of connection to the metal piece that companioned it on the table next door.

" some made up guy in yer head? Newsflash guy , I ain't need help from nobody. "

" i also don't appreciate ya' comin in here without an invite. "
