THERE’S SOMETHING DANGEROUS ABOUT THE BOREDOM OF TEENAGE GIRLS: a collection pt. i
[dare me by megan abbott]
“That’s what people never understand: They see us hard little pretty things, brightly lacquered and sequin-studded, and they laugh, they mock, they arouse themselves. They miss everything. You see, these glitters and sparkle dusts and magicks? It’s war paint, it’s feather and claws, it’s blood sacrifice.”
[weightless by sarah bannan]
“They came out in groups of three, wearing matching shorts and T-shirts, their hair tied back with orange and black ribbons. Their eyes were wide and they yelled and clapped and turned, precisely, rehearsed. They smiled and their lipstick was pink and smooth, their teeth white and perfect. They sparkled.”
[imaginary girls by nova ren suma]
“In reality I was a pencil drawing of a photocopy of a Polaroid of my sister-you could see the resemblance in a certain light if you were seeking it out.”
[some girls are by courtney summers]
“There’s something inside me that needs somewhere to go. I feel quiet-reckless-crazy. I feel like… I could shove my knuckles into metal and it would never hurt. I feel dead inside.”
[dangerous girls by abigail haas]
“What about you - how much do you love me?“
"Enough.”
“Hey!”
“You didn’t ask, ‘Enough for what?’”
“Fine, then. Enough for what?”
“For Anything.”
“That’s Better.”

This is pain that I know, pain that I can handle, pain that is so much a part of me that if it were removed I would not be whole.

Some people stay broken. Some pick up the pieces and put them back together with all the sharp edges showing.

The person who is brutally honest enjoys the brutality quite as much as the honesty.
