rough crowd.

what are you, in a hardboiled detective novel?
no need to get freudian about it.
did you want to be seen?
don't watch.
don't stand so close.
i come in peace.
i haven't seen you in a million years.
wine's on the kitchen counter. beer's in the fridge.
i can't stand ____ music.
you don't give a shit what i want.
i actually like you.
there's so much pain in this city, i could vomit.
i ruined my chance, didn't i?
you can still leave.
what do you need to hide yourself for?
you are not alone.
you came back.
of course you wouldn't want me. no one would.
why do you need me to betray you?
what is it that you really want?
i wonder what purpose this narrative serves.
who do you really feel rejected by?
what's wrong with anger?
anger makes you look bad. it's unseemly.
where are these words coming from? whose words are they?
what are you thinking?
i had to ruin it.
you want someone to see, but you don't know how to let yourself be seen.
aren't you curious?
how could you treat ____ that way?
have you been sitting here waiting for me?
if i say one thing, i'll say everything. and if i say everything, i'll have nothing left.
it wasn't what you did, it was the way you did it.
can you stop for a second and listen?
get some rest. we'll talk more tomorrow, okay?
you have eyes like outer space.
you know who you look like?
please put your hands on my face.
say everything that comes to mind.
do i even need to tell you? don't you already know?
what are you afraid of?
what happens if i get three strikes?
you can tell, can't you?
one must seek to learn something from everything.
why did you tell me that story?
why is everyone always telling me what i do and don't want?
i can't say what i need to say.
you told mom?
thanks for pretending nothing happened.
only you are responsible for how you feel.
something seems a little off with you.
i'm not ashamed of you. i'm concerned about you.
you seem more disconnected than usual.
the help i need isn't the kind you can give.
you don't really think that, do you?
i just needed to hear you say it.
you may be a disaster, but you're not a monster.
i want to apologize for how i spoke to you.
you don't respect me. you don't even like me.
i want everything the second i think it.
