༘⋆｡ hard conversations starters

for those hard conversations you have to have sometimes. romantic, platonic, familial, & a few others!

i  don't  know  how  to  say  this  without  hurting  you.

you've  been  so  different  lately...

i've  been  trying  to  say  this  for  a  while  now.

i  know  i  messed  up.  i  just  need  you  to  listen.

did  you  fall  out  of  love  with  me?

you  don't  have  to  forgive  me.

at  what  point  did  you  decide  i  wasn't  worth  the  effort?

why  didn't  you  tell  me?

why  is  love  in  this  family  always  conditional?

please  just  say  something.

i've  spent  my  whole  life  trying  to  be  enough  for  you.

i'm  scared  if  we  talk  about  this,  we're  going  to  fall  apart.

do  you  even  want  to  fix  this  anymore?

you  were  supposed  to  be  the  one  person  who  wouldn't  give  up  on  me!

tell  me  what  to  do.  tell  me  what  you  need.

if  this  is  the  end,  i  want  to  hear  you  say  it.

i'm  scared  you're  only  here  because  it's  easier  to  stay.

i  can't  keep  pretending  nothing  happened.

you  left  me  to  clean  up  the  pieces  of  what  you  broke.

you  act  like  you're  fine  but  i  can  tell  you're  not.

i  can't  keep  holding  this  in  anymore.

it  feels  like  you  don't  need  me  anymore.

was  it  easier  to  ghost  me  than  admit  you  gave  up?

say  it.  say  you  never  loved  me.

when  did  we  stop  being  on  the  same  side?

sometimes  i  wish  i'd  never  met  you.

loving  someone  isn't  supposed  to  feel  like  this.

why  is  it  so  hard  to  talk  to  you  without  feeling  small?

i'm  tired  of  being  the  one  who  holds  it  all  together.

if  you  cared,  you  would've  stayed.

i'm  trying  to  learn  how  to  forgive  you.

༘⋆｡ stirring the pot starters

a mix of arguments, tension, manipulation, gossiping, fighting, & general emotional messiness!

you  weren't  supposed  to  hear  that.

don't  look  at  me  like  i'm  the  only  one  lying.

want  to  tell  them,  or  should  i?

you  think  i  don't  know  what  you  did?

i've  hit  people  for  less.

oh,  i  thought  you  already  knew.

that's  funny,  you  didn't  say  that  last  night.

say  that  again.  i  dare  you.

you  wanna  talk  about  loyalty?

no  offense,  but  if  you're  the  last  to  know,  that's  on  you.

go  ahead  -  pretend  like  it  wasn't  your  idea!

they  deserve  to  know  the  truth.

you  didn't  hear  this  from  me,  but  -

oh,  so  now  you  care?

don't  flatter  yourself.  you  were  just  convenient.

you  crossed  a  line.

we  had  bets  on  how  long  it  would  last.

it's  not  even  a  secret  anymore.

you  don't  get  to  cry  about  it  now.

touch  me  again  and  see  what  happens.

say  it  again.  louder  this  time.

you  really  thought  nobody  would  find  out?

don't  act  so  innocent.

okay,  but  am  i  the  villain  for  laughing?

tell  me  who  else  knows.  right  now.

this  whole  time,  and  you  didn't  say  a  word?

don't  act  brave  now.

you're  really  gonna  do  this  here?

it  wasn't  supposed  to  get  this  far!

you  can't  rewrite  history.

oh,  i'd  never  say  it  to  their  faces.

it  was  supposed  to  stay  between  us.

we're  all  thinking  it,  i  just  said  it.

you're  not  as  untouchable  as  you  act.

do  you  even  feel  guilty?

they  warned  me  about  you.

go  ahead,  make  it  worse.

if  you  repeat  this,  i'll  deny  everything.

the  next  thing  out  of  your  mouth  better  be  an  apology.

you're  about  three  seconds  away  from  regretting  this.

you  keep  pushing,  and  i'll  push  you  back.

they're  going  to  find  out.

one  more  lie,  and  i  walk.

they're  lying  to  you.

you  need  to  back  off.  now.

you're  defending  them?  after  everything?

don't  try  to  hide  it.

tell  me,  was  i  just  a  placeholder?

you  really  think  sorry  fixes  this?

there's  nothing  left  to  say.

don't  act  like  you're  the  one  hurting.

i  don't  owe  you  any  explanation.

whatever  helps  you  sleep  at  night.

you  should've  seen  this  coming.

i  hope  it  was  worth  it.

i  told  the  truth.  just  not  all  of  it.

you'll  miss  me  before  i  miss  you.

smile.  you're  ruining  the  mood.

i'd  watch  that  tone  if  i  were  you.

it's  not  my  fault  you  believed  me.

you  have  such  a  talent  for  pretending  you're  innocent.

we  both  know  this  is  over.

i  never  said  i  was  a  good  person.

i  thought  you  were  different.

Are 𝙮𝙤𝙪 fidgeting? Do I make you nervous?

Joe took a step back, his head turned toward a back section in the store. He tilted his chin up and in the direction of Horror Fiction.

"We stock Stephen King, Shirley Jackson, Anne Rice, Edgar Allen Poe, H.P. Lovecraft, Dean Koontz. That's just a few, the main ones that most people know." Joe's dark eyes glittered, the mere mention of literary legends sparking a tiny flame inside of him. The power and the joy of losing oneself in a masterpiece, in a world unbeknownst to the heathens of society, a path less traveled.

"Have you ever read 𝑭𝒓𝒂𝒏𝒌𝒆𝒏𝒔𝒕𝒆𝒊𝒏 𝒃𝒚 𝑴𝒂𝒓𝒚 𝑺𝒉𝒆𝒍𝒍𝒆𝒚? If you haven't, I highly recommend it." Cocking his head to the side, Joe slid 𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝑨𝒍𝒄𝒉𝒆𝒎𝒊𝒔𝒕 under his arm and pressed it to his side.

"I can show you, if you'd like?"

@lilithcatsan

It's a slow day today, Joe thought to himself. He sighed as he began to walk around, shelving books in the correct order, putting them where they belong. His mind wandering to Mr. Mooney, wondering what the old man could be doing. Joe made a mental note to visit him. It's been a while, he thought and grimaced.

The bells jingled for the door, signaling that a customer had just walked in. With a slight roll to his eyes, he pushed a smile to his lips and walked out to the front counter.

"Hi, I'm Joe. How can I help you?"

Elizabeth Lail as Guinevere Beck

— in You S01 E02 "The Last Nice Guy in New York"

[stalkmuch]

thinking about joe goldberg and love quinn teaming up together in order to kidnap you.

you’re just so perfect— the way you smile at the waiter in the restaurant that they both saw you at. the way you have nobody apart from yourself to take care of you.

maybe it was because you were alone that they were drawn to you.

it didn’t necessarily matter why, as long as they had you in the end. and that was their true goal.

the way they had snuck you into their life was almost incredible. it was the way love invited you to her bakery, and the way joe had offered to give you a tour of the local library there.

the only reason joe could now stand love was because she loved you the way he did.

so they decided to work together; they decided to get you into their life the same way they did with each other.

and of course that cage in the bakery would become useful at some point.

because your eyes and the way you looked when they both trapped you inside? so worth it.

"Finally decided to be a father, have you?"

"For better or for worse, I am my father's daughter."

"My father is an unreliable, morally ambiguous, charming drunk."

"Maybe what you hate about me the most is that I remind you of yourself."

"There's only room for one patriarch in the family."

"Whenever my father was working from home, which was most of the time, he used to give me a quarter for every hour I could keep quiet. One day, I remember it was a Saturday morning, I decided I wasn't going to say anything before he did, even if it took all weekend. But he never said anything. I don't think he even noticed."

"I know what you're afraid of, but you are not your father."

For a moment they just stared at one another, assessing, evaluating each other. The smile vanished for a moment as Joe followed her gaze, the torrential downpour now coming in waves over the stores glass front, with a chuckle he nodded. "Ah. I totally get it."

Joe took a quick glance around, with the current onslaught of rain and it being a Wednesday, the store was completely empty, except for 𝙮𝙤𝙪. "It seems I am all yours than."

His eyes flickered over to meet your gaze, the smile returned as he took a step toward you, reclosing the space and giving you his undivided attention.

"What kind of books do you like? Favorite Author or genre? It helps to know a little about the customers' taste."

The last word lingered there between them, the word taste fresh on his tongue. He idly wondered what 𝙮𝙤𝙪 taste like.

Joe smiled, watching you as he noticed how open your facial expressions actually were. Behind all your black, he was beginning to see 𝙮𝙤𝙪. You're quit nerdy, aren't you? Nerdy is good, nothing wrong with nerdy.

You've already read this book, haven't you? Joe meets your small smile with a lopsided one of his own. You're quiet, did I say something? Did you say something?

Joe's eyes drifted from your face to your small fingers as they played with the end of your braid, you're definitely nervous. Meeting your gaze again, he tilted his head toward the register and stepped back, book still clutched in his hand. "I can check you out, unless you're still looking, of course?"

Send me a ؟ for a random thought my muse has about yours.

[stalkmuch]

You're nervous. Joe stops in front of you, the book dangling loosely in your small hand. He takes the book, careful not to brush fingers or linger longer than was necessary. With a small smile, he surveyed the book.

"𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝑨𝒍𝒄𝒉𝒆𝒎𝒊𝒔𝒕 𝒃𝒚 𝑷𝒂𝒖𝒍𝒐 𝑪𝒐𝒆𝒍𝒉𝒐, good choice. Very deep and thought provoking."

Joe handles the book delicately, long fingers tracing the spine as his dark eyes roved the copy, evaluating it. Assessing it. He opened the book and flipped through a few pages. Old, but undamaged. Good condition, great condition actually.

His eyes suddenly dart up, meeting your gaze as the corner of his mouth lifted. Up closer, he can smell your perfume, or maybe that's just your scent, either way it was intoxicating.

Joe inhaled, eyes dilated slightly as he imagined closing the store early, turning the open sign to closed and drawing the blinds. Then he would return to find you half naked in a reading corner, your small hand between your thighs as he kneels in front of you...

Clearing his throat, a tight smile as he blurted out a price, anything to clear his head from 𝙮𝙤𝙪. "Umm, 29.99 it's a great book for a great price. I think you would love it, but what do I know, I'm a glorified librarian." He joked, gently flirting.

I have to know 𝙮𝙤𝙪.
