#angst incorrect quote

[achromatophoric]

[Forewarning: This is not a funny Incorrect Quote. Apologies in advance.]

Two people in very familiar room, having a very familiar conversation.

Enid: I can’t believe I’m actually going to miss your creepy, lifeless eyes waking me up. It won’t be the same without you.

Wednesday: So I assume you’ll be moving in with Yoko. Leaving me in the past.

Enid: Not ever. What about you? Will you—

Enid’s throat catches, an action that earns a blank stare from Wednesday.

Enid: Will you forget about me?

Wednesday: Enid… the mark you have left on me is indelible.

At that last word, a flicker of emotion ripples across Enid’s face. It goes unnoticed by the speaker.

Wednesday: Anytime I grow nauseous at the sight of a rainbow or hear a pop song that makes my ears bleed, I’ll think of you.

Enid: *stares at Wednesday*

Wednesday: E-Enid?

Something fractures in Wednesday’s demeanor as soon as the syllables leave her lips. As if, in this moment, they don’t fit, and that incongruity ignites an intense anxiety at the edges of her being.

Enid: *blinks* Thanks. I guess.

The anxiety fades from Wednesday. Her face smooths. Her stance relaxes.

Wednesday: I always believed relying on other people to be a sign of weakness. That inevitably they would lead…

— Later that night, in a room outside of the fabricated halls and too familiar rooms. —

Enid stands at a sink, having just washed the makeup from her face. She studies herself in the mirror, noting how her exhaustion only deepens the age lines. How without makeup, her scars from that night are barely visible, faded as they are by the years.

Pugsley: *clears his throat*

Enid: *turns* Hey, Pugsley.

Pugsley: Thank you again for this, Enid.

Enid: *nods mutely*

Pugsley: So uh, which day was it this time?

Enid: Just after the Crackstone incident. The day we left school. Indelible.

Pugsley: *winces* Oh. That’s why you— will you be okay?

Enid: *harshly* I’ll be fine.

A comforting hand settles on Enid’s shoulder. She looks up at the taller man. Her friend. Someone who should have been family.

Pugsley: Enid, you can’t blame yourself for this. It wasn’t your—

Enid: Can’t I? Wasn’t it? I rejected her, Pugsley. I did this to your sister. ME.

Pugsley: You didn’t know about the curse. She didn’t tell you. She didn’t tell anyone.

Enid: But I could’ve noticed! I was her best friend. When she got sick, I should have— especially once she started to forget things. When she started to forget me.

Enid: I— I should have believed her.

Enid is crying now. Through blurred vision she glares at the line of pale skin on her ring finger. A reminder of past decisions made. Of mistakes rectified too late.

Enid: *whispers* I should have believed her.

Pugsley watches his friend, wishing he could do more. He wishes that she would accept a hug. That she would not deny herself the comfort of friends, or the forgiveness of his family.

Pugsley: When you’re ready, there’s tea. Pubert already prepped the guest room, so please stay the night? Thing misses you, and his nails have seen better days.

Enid: *swallows* Y-Yeah, okay. Thank you.

With that, Pugsley leaves Enid to her sorrows. To memories that are no longer shared by the one who helped forge them. To hopes that feel abandoned. To quiet regret and indelible woe.

It's said that the game cards are actual photos that Yuu took with the ghost camera. [I don't know if this is true but a lot of people have said so]

Most, if not all the characters tell Yuu to hurry up when choosing a class, which suggests that they're indecisive.

Ace, Deuce and Cater tell Yuu to relax during classes or else they'll run out of energy.

Jack says that he got tips from Yuu while he was working in Monstro Lounge, implying that Yuu might've worked in customer service before (Book 3).

According to Grim, they have a hard time saying no to people, but when they absolutely need to-- they're very serious and a bit intimidating. "You're a real sap sometimes, you know that? Then again, when you bare your teeth it's no joke."

You, while playing with Jason's hair: Do the scars still hurt?

Jason: All the fucking time.

You: Do they hurt, when I touch them or-

Jason: No no no, it's more of a mental thing…sometimes when you touch them they bring back bad memories before I…

You: Then why don't you ever pull away?

Jason: Because I know you're not trying to hurt me, I know that you're safe? I don't know the fucking words for this…

*He rests his head on your shoulder*

Jason: Just don't leave.

You: I never will Jay.

Angst/humor fic idea, if you need a prompt:

Bruce finds out the hard way which of his kids is okay with the 'unadoption' joke threats he makes when they annoy or stress him out. "Why did I adopt you?"..."I still have your adoption certificate. I wonder if the orphanage accepts returns?"..."I knew I should have left you on that street corner where I found you."

Dick fires back with twice as much sass, sometimes rolling his eyes and flipping off Bruce when he gets older.

Young!Jason looks so scared the first time he hears one, and Bruce never jokes about it again. Adult!Jason makes jokes about unadopting himself.

Tim is far too tired to register that it was a joke and gets quiet and avoids Bruce completely for the rest of the week until Bruce realizes what he did wrong and tracks his son down. They talk and Bruce never implies regretting to adopt Tim again.

Cass laughs along with him before pulling out her adoption certificate from her pocket and grinning, scaring him. His kids's adoption paperwork was all stored in a hidden, impenetrable, designed-by-Batman safe. Laughter fades and she just whispers "You'll never be rid of me."

Bruce- Maybe Talia wants you back.

Damian, not even phased- And maybe Alfred would have rather been working for a doctor than a clown-hating, nocturnal, combat furry, but I guess we're both out here disappointing our parents.

Fleamont Potter who makes a plan the day he takes in Sirius Black as his own son in 1975.

Fleamont Potter who waits until James makes Regulus his son-in-law to make a heartwarming “father-of-both-grooms” speech at their wedding reception.

Fleamont Potter who leaves said wedding reception to go find Orion Black in his swanky members-only billiards hall—saying:

“Hello, my name is Fleamont Potter. You abused my kids, Sirius & Regulus. They’re fine now, but the same can’t be said for you.”

& then breaks Orion’s kneecap in with his own pool cue.

Wenclairtober 2024, Day 15 - Injury

[Warning: Angst ahead. Comfort not found.]

Wednesday has an old injury. Though just one of many received during her time at Nevermore, this particular wound lingers the most. Sometimes she can nearly forget it. At other times, particularly on rainy days, the wound inflames and she can think of little else.

Today is one such rainy day.

Enid: And then Yoko kept eating it! She freaking ate half of it!

Wednesday: Half of a slice?

Enid: Half the entire gosh darned pizza!

Wednesday leans back in her writing chair as she watches Enid’s lively explanation on her phone. The device is propped upon a sculpture of Nero made for this very purpose. It arrived at the mansion half a decade ago, just one of the countless holiday gifts from Enid.

Wednesday: *incredulous* And she somehow didn’t perish?

Enid: She nearly did. We had to take her to the ER. She was laid up for like an entire week.

Wednesday: For a vampire, she is suicidally obsessed with the flavor of garlic.

Enid: Totes that. I mean— the pizza was called ‘Pan Helsing!’ It even had that garlic cheddar cheese you like.

Wednesday: Mm. Face Rock Creamery’s Vampire Slayer.

Enid: That’s the one!

A dull ache thrums as Wednesday can’t help but remember when she first tasted that particular cheese. One night like so many others, between two teenagers who sat too close, holding back too many words and too many feelings.

“You love it, don’t you?”

“I’ve had worse.”

“Uh huh. That’s what you’re having another piece.”

“This picnic would be much more enjoyable if you’d cease talking.”

“Why don’t you make me?”

“… I’m saving some for Yoko.”

“Willa! Don’t you dare!”

Enid: —esday. Earth to Wednesday. Did you hear me?

Wednesday: *shakes off memory* Ah— my apologies, Enid, I did not.

On screen, Enid stares for a lingering moment, then wets her lips with a nervous lick.

Enid: So I was just saying that I have a ton of vacation time that I literally have to use like now. And everyone is going to be totes busy with their own thing, so…

Wednesday’s ache stirs. It lurches, licking over ribs and up her throat.

Enid: *hopeful* Do you think I can maybe— you know…

The ache is cold and hot at the same time, and so very here. In her bones. In her blood.

Enid: Just a short trip! Heck, even for only one day. I have to— I mean I just… I really want to see you.

Wednesday reins it in. Strangles her own tongue. Attempts to conceal the forming cracks with a coat of caustic humor.

Wednesday: And just what part of FaceTime precludes that from occurring? Have you perhaps finally gone blind from overexposure to neons?

Enid: *laughs* Oh shut up. You know what I mean.

At the warmth of Enid’s laughter, Wednesday’s control slips and the faintest of hint of a dimple escapes to one cheek. Enid notices. Enid stares.

Enid: *softly* You’re still beautiful.

The ache blossoms into something sharp and lethal.

Wednesday: Enid, please—

Enid: Can’t I just visit? It’s been years and—

Wednesday: Now is not an ideal—

Enid: It’s never an ideal time!

A moment of silence. Pain throbs in time with a racing heart. Whose? Wednesday is unable to tell.

Wednesday: *sighs* I apologize, Enid, but I must to go. I promised Pubert that I would—

Enid: I still love you.

The whisper is a dull guillotine blade disguised. A noose too long. Dry electrodes. Poorly-measured injections. Firing squad with poor aim.

Wednesday: I have to—

Enid: I still think of you. Want you. Need you.

Wednesday: Enid.

Enid: Willa.

Familiar pain. Fresh and raw. Torn, ripped, cracked. Nerves firing endlessly. Torture.

Enid: *deep breath*

Enid: I’m still in lo—

Wednesday: You’re still married.

Silence again.

Enid: …

Enid: I should— I’ll let you go.

For now.

Enid: Could you please give Pubert a hug for me?

I’m sorry. Unspoken, yet entirely legible. Writ across her face in solemn calligraphy.

Wednesday: Of course. Have a dreadful day, Enid.

Enid: You too, Wi— Wednesday. Take care.

The call ends, yet Enid’s face lingers, as does the pain. Phantom reminders for Wednesday’s phantom heart.

Wednesday: *whispers* I still feel the pain same, mi lobita. Mi sol. Mi corazón.

Wednesday stares out the window, eyes unfocused upon heavy clouds shedding their wet burdens. Droplets on the glass. In a reflection. Perhaps even upon a face. Because today is a rainy day. And Enid?

She always calls on a rainy day.

Arthur: I want to wake up to you every day for the rest of our lives.

Merlin: I wake up at sunrise.

Arthur: …

Arthur: I want to see you at a reasonable time every morning for the rest of our lives.

Merlin: I could always laze in bed till you wake up.

Arthur, knowing that will more than likely mean waking up to Merlin playing with his hair every morning: Perfect. Yes. Do that.
