Round 1: Quotes

About

The world is full of beautiful words. The tongue has no bones but is strong enough to break a heart. Words start wars and end them, create love and choke it, bring us to laughter and joy and tears. There is no falsehood in words, only in things.

Calling all readers, lovers of poetry and music, screen and stage. If you have a google spreadsheet of Metric/Marina/Mitski/Macklemore lyrics, now's your time to shine. What does Nobel Laureate Louise Glück have in common with the Future of Kpop Lee Chan? I don't know, but we can find out.


Examples


Junhui + The Archer
"Easy they come, easy they go
I jump from the train, I ride off alone
I never grew up, it's getting so old
Help me hold onto you"
Taylor Swift - The Archer

Verhao; "I loved him from the moment he walked in"
Just thinking about all the verhao soft feelings from the last week of November, especially the killer tweet from @literarykpop with the quote:
"I laughed and said, ‘Life is easy.’ What I meant was, ‘Life is easy with you here, and when you leave, it will be hard again." - Miranda July

95 line - R18
"Houston, we have a problem."

Seokmin’s hands were steady as he wrote across the top of his lined sheet of paper. Chocolate Chip Cookies, in his best brush lettering, the way he used to do it on his college history notes. He’d gotten more compliments on his artful notes than he did on the actual classwork. He supposed he should have more attention to the events than making sure he’d written The Triangle Shirtwaist Fire in pretty letters. He did think it was pretty funny that he’d written them in a fancy orange and yellow gradient, though.

He sighed and slid the paper aside, unsatisfied with his first attempt. It could be neater. And maybe, instead of just writing it in black, he could use a tan marker and dot it with brown chips. That would be nice to look at. He set his black pen aside and started searching through his box for the right color.

“Oooh, are you gonna make this recipe?” Soonyoung asked, appearing over his boyfriend’s shoulder. He wrapped his arms around Seokmin’s neck, making him jolt and smear a streak of marker across the top of the page. “Oops. My bad. I like the way you wrote it on the other paper though!”

“I want it to be cool, though,” Seokmin stressed, sliding the messed paper away. “And no, I’m not making the cookies now. You ate the last of my chocolate chips.”

“Oops,” Soonyoung said again, perching himself on top of the counter rather than sitting in one of the available chairs. “I needed them. For energy. After my dance class last week.”

“Chocolate is a bad energy source and you know it,” Seokmin scolded, carefully writing out his title again.

“You weren’t home to cook for me,” Soonyoung said dramatically. “There was nothing I could do.”

Seokmin finished the word Chocolate and paused, inspecting his work. “Wait, should I write ‘chocolate chip’ in brown, and then make just the word ‘cookie’ look like… a cookie?”

Soonyoung hopped off the counter and squinted down at the letters. “It looks fine like this though? Why does it need to be so cool, anyways? Or handwritten, for that matter? You can just keep the recipe on your phone.”

“I know that,” Seokmin replied, re-capping the marker. “It’s just… I don’t know. It feels more special this way, I guess. It’s not even my own recipe or anything, just my favorite one. And writing it down like this means I can save it for the future. For like. Our kids, or something. I don’t know. It’s stupid.” He slumped down on the table with a sigh.

“Nooooo,” Soonyoung crowed, draping himself on top of the other man. “It’s not stupid when you put it like that! I just didn’t understand. I’m sorry. It’s cute that you want to save it for the future. Like, you saying that made my heart beat ten times faster. I love you~~~”

“I love you too,” Seokmin said softly. “Can you let me up now?”

“Yes. As long as we can go buy more chocolate chips and make these later. And also if you show me how to do the fancy letters. I wanna make cool sign-up posters for my dance classes.”
