Calling all readers, lovers of poetry and music, screen and stage. Quote collecters and lyric hoarders, unleash your archive. For this round, every prompt must contain a quote - you can combine them, add commentary, link to articles, do whatever. Steal from a literary classic, or copy WeVerse drama.

Lord, we should quit
But we love it too much

Major Tags: N/A
Additional Tags: grey areas, themes of emotional infidelity or nonmonogamy or messy throuples or whatever, character/relationship study
Do Not Wants: None

Prompt:
Everybody wants to fuck someone else
Wanna feel the thing they never felt when they was with you

- JMSN, Cruel Intentions



This song is also about controlled desire, or our ability to lust for people and not act on it. Navigating monogamy and desire is difficult, but it’s also a normal human condition. Those feelings don’t contradict loyalty, you know? The chorus reminds me of heaven and the verses remind me of hell. After these dark and almost industrial bars, there’s this angelic light that breaks through.

Do Not Wants: None

Prompt:
There's no way tonight, as far as I know
That heaven will take me, so I'm staggering home
Wretched and wild, all glory and trash
Yeah, I'm drunk but I'm ready to kick some fucking ass
- 'Magnolia', Gang of Youths

I'll stare directly at the sun but never in the mirror

even occasional greatness will destroy a man

Ship/Member: Any
Major Tags: N/A
Additional Tags: N/A
Do Not Wants: None

Prompt:
Greatness is a transitory experience. It is never consistent. It depends in part on the myth-making imagination of humankind. The person who experiences greatness must have a feeling for the myth he is in. He must reflect what is projected on him. And he must have a strong sense of the sardonic. This is what uncouples him from his own pretensions. The sardonic is all that permits him to move within himself. Without this quality, even occasional greatness will destroy a man.

Prompt:
You live inside me, the same way I live inside you. A moebius strip, a snake always swallowing its own tail. Mutually assured destruction, maybe, or mutual deification. Mutual consumption. I will be the house that holds every part of you.

Do Not Wants: None

Prompt:
You always want to watch
Somethin' late at night
That terrifies you
And then you make me stand guard
At the bedroom door
I wanna know everythin' you do

No, I never mind
Do it a thousand times
Just let me close to you
'Cause in the dead of night
With you by my side
There's no cold that could cut through

Do you miss me too?

Ship/Member: Jeonghan/Joshua (romantic or platonic)
Major Tags: N/A
Additional Tags: N/A
Do Not Wants: MCD, Noncon

Prompt:
Among the prime numbers there are some that are even more special. Mathematicians call them twin primes: they are pairs of prime numbers that are close to one another, almost neighbours, but between them there is always an even number that prevents them from truly touching. Numbers like 11 and 13, like 17 and 19, 41 and 43. If you have the patience to go on counting, you discover that these pairs gradually become rarer. You encounter increasingly isolated primes, lost in that silent, measured space made only of numbers, and you become aware of the distressing sense that the pairs encountered up until that point were accidental, that solitude is the true destiny. Then, just when you’re about to surrender, when you no longer have any desire to go on counting, you come across another pair of twins, clutching each other tightly.

Additional Tags: Loving someone because of their flaws, not despite it
Do Not Wants: None

Prompt:
“you’re not a monster,” i said. but i lied. what i really wanted to say was that a monster is not such a terrible thing to be. from the latin root monstrum, a divine messenger of catastrophe, then adapted by the old french to mean an animal of myriad origins: centaur, griffin, satyr. to be a monster is to be a hybrid signal, a lighthouse: both shelter and warning at once.

Do Not Wants: None

Prompt:
"You'll find some lovely accomplished girl, who will adore you, and make a fine mistress for your fine house. I wouldn't. I'm homely and awkward and odd and you'd be ashamed of me and we would quarrel - we can't help it even now! - I'd hate elegant society and you'd hate my scribbling and we would be unhappy and wish we hadn't done it and everything will be horrid."

"Anything more?"

"Nothing more-- except that... I don't believe I will ever marry. I'm happy as I am, and love my liberty too well to be in any hurry to give it up."

"You will care for somebody, and you'll love him tremendously, and live and die for him. I know you will, it's your way, and you will and... I'll watch."
