they're a few pixels closer than before but it was worth the time.

"Thank you for signing all that paperwork. Nasty business. You're a good man, Mr. — Chasnik."
He likes to learn people's names. The people, of course, should be treated like people. The subjects, meanwhile, and their many interrupting variables —
"There's someone I'd like you to meet, at some point. Dr. Kingsley Harris. And I don't want you to be intimidated by him or his — hm — his team. They're really quite harmless to a man like you."

Dick: “Hey, Jason—Where did all this money come from?”
Jason: “From B.”
Dick: “He gave it to you? For what? Did you blackmail him?”
Jason: “No, he paid me, in exchange for very important pictures.”

honestly? that one David Tennant Richard II Kiss™ is my favourite acted kiss in history
look how ridiculously tender and how achingly desperate it is. so gentle, so kind, and yet so selfish at the same time. i've never seen anything quite so human
just. just look at these
there's something so genuine and chaste about this kiss, while also being gorgeously passionate and heated and...... it's just perfect

"We'll need you to sign some papers. It's all very standard procedure — protecting ourselves, protecting you."
It's hard to imagine criminals against humanity appropriately lawyering up, but there are people, in this world, willing to work for people like him.
"Nothing like I'm sure you had to sign for the state."

so. um. the good news is we found your boyfriend. the bad news is that, well, we sort of…dug him up…in the middle of a car park. in leicester (buckley et al. 2013). leicester, yeah. sorry. they demolished the friary he was hastily interred in when henry viii dissolved all the monasteries. you know how it is. and as it turns out, well, shakespeare was…sort of right about him. scoliosis, yeah, sorry (appleby et al. 2014). if it makes you feel any better we analysed his bones and it turns out he had a pretty high-protein diet before he died (lamb et al. 2014). and he drank so much wine that it changed their chemical composition, which we didn't know could actually happen before we analysed him (lamb et al. 2014), so he was having a good time, at least.
