i. unknown

[ "young, corrupted by tragedies of war and exile / alone in spite of himself / boy made of ash and a honey soaked dawn / rust on his hands, in his throat, in his lungs / bright-eyed, rough edges, scraped raw and twisted with time / where is his soft epilogue?" ]

ii. Destiny, Fieldplate Gauntlets Description

[ "Ignore every instinct to flee. Remember: you are a monster too." ]

iii. Tanaka Mhishi, Literary Sexts

[ "I am fragile and unholy. / Open. Ravage. Eat." ]

iv. @/grievng

[ "im so fucking angry that no one ever protected me and no one was ever in my fucking corner when i was a kid its not fucking fair" ]

v. Marie Lu, The Young Elites

[ "So. Tell me, little wolf. Would you like to punish those who have wronged you?" ]

vi. Cheekface, I Only Say I'm Sorry When I'm Wrong Now

[ "You're no longer fine / With the way that things are / Your heroes are dead / And so I guess you are the hero now" ]

vii. Marie Howe, After the Movie

[ "My friend Michael and I are walking home / arguing about the movie. / He says that he believes a person can love someone / and still be able to murder that person." ]

ix. unknown

[ "What happens when you get older / is you get over it. You buy flowers / to set on the table. You say your prayers. // You learn to live alone / the way you learned to love / everything // not dead."]

x. Susan Sontag, As Consciousness is Harnessed to Flesh

[ "I suffer from a chronic nausea-after I'm with people. The awareness (after-aware-ness) of how programmed I am, how insecure, how frightened." ]

[darling--scorpio]

"We fuck like we're the only ones who do it right. You say my name and it comes out like a dark confession. Our mouths swing open like doors. Our mouths open and we spill into each other, like wine."

You kiss me with your mouth wide open like you’re not afraid of swallowing poison. I taste the good and bad in you and want them both. We call this bravery.
