About
"If I loved you less, I might be able to talk about it more."
"What is grief, if not love persevering?"
"You kept me like a secret but I kept you like an oath"
Calling all readers, lovers of poetry and music, screen and stage. Quote collecters and lyric hoarders, unleash your archive. Each prompt must contain a quote - you can combine them, add commentary, link to articles, and more. Steal from a literary classic, or WeVerse drama. Have fun!
Examples
Minghao + Ocean Vuong
The most beautiful part of your body
is where it's headed. & remember,
loneliness is still time spent
with the world.
Ocean Vuong - night sky with exit wounds
Hoshi/Anyone; "Beauty is terror"
Thinking about these two quotes together and the idea of on/off-stage personas:
"Beauty is terror. Whatever we call beautiful we tremble before it. And what could be more terrifying or beautiful, to the Greeks to to our own, than to lose control completely?" - Donna Tartt, the Secret Histories
"I am calm in everyday life but when I put on my in-ear device and step on stage, I can feel the tension and hear the cheers getting louder as the music gets louder. When the staff tells me it's time to step on stage, I feel something boil inside me. I feel it steaming inside and I think I have to give a burst of something, spill what is inside me." - Hoshi in Hit the Road Ep. 04
Any ship; "It's been so many years"
Hello, hello there, is this Martha?
This is old Tom Frost
And I am calling long distance
Don't worry 'bout the cost.
'Cause it's been forty years or more
Now Martha please recall
Meet me out for coffee
Where we'll talk about it all.
Tom Watts - Martha

“how do you do this?”
it’s 3 am in the morning and jeonghan finally gathers the courage to meet seungcheol’s eyes, now that the initial shame has dissipated.
seungcheol, who is holding a clean towel to dry jeonghan’s hair, flicks his gaze all over his face. “what?”
he stands in front of jeonghan who is sitting on his bed, with only a towel wrapped around his waist and another thrown over his shoulder. they had returned to their dorm after a long day of practice and seungcheol had followed jeonghan straight to the eighth floor. they had stayed quiet the whole time and seungcheol had dragged jeonghan to his bathroom and washed his hair for him. that’s the least he can do to soothe jeonghan’s nerves.
this is not the first time seungcheol does something like this.
“this,” jeonghan points at something in between them vaguely, “this.”
seungcheol gently holds jeonghan’s chin with one hand and takes a good look at him. the blonde long hair looks good on him. no, jeonghan has always been beautiful. he starts toweling jeonghan’s head slowly, in a lulling way. “you have had a very long day.”
that makes jeonghan snort. “everyone did, seungcheol. i am not the only one.”
seungcheol knows exactly what’s up with jeonghan. not everyday in the practice room or the studio goes smoothly. some days it’s repeated mistakes on someone’s part. some days it’s the lingering feeling that they carry all the way to the end of the day.
seungcheol had noticed the frown on jeonghan’s face ever since the vocal unit arrived to the practice room after recording their unit song. he had seen the way jihoon kept glancing at jeonghan and telling him he really did well with the recording. he had seen the way jeonghan had brushed a playful seokmin off his shoulder.
he had noticed how jeonghan unintentionally slammed the door car a little too loud and then sent an apologetic glance towards him because it wasn’t directed towards him.
“tell me,” jeonghan whispers as he holds seungcheol’s hand to stop him, “how do you guys put up with me?”
“it’s because we know you. we all have our moments, jeonghan-ah.” seungcheol stares down at jeonghan until he gives up and lets seungcheol do his work.
“i thought i should give up being a singer if i can’t make it through today’s recording,” jeonghan says with his eyes closed. “if it wasn’t for jihoon, i wouldn’t have finished it.”
“jihoon said you did well. you know he is serious when he says such things.”
jeonghan sighs. “and i got snippy at seokmin earlier.”
seungcheol stops and tips jeonghan’s head up to meet his eyes. “you know what to do about that. it’s seokmin you are talking about.” then he leans down and presses a kiss to his temple.
that brings a hint of a smile on jeonghan’s face. seungcheol walks away to get the hair dryer and beckons jeonghan to come to him.
jeonghan doesn’t follow seungcheol right away. he doesn’t even get up from the bed. “how does he not take things like these to his heart? how do you do that?”
seungcheol walks back to jeonghan. “because i know you don’t actually mean it. seokmin and the others, they love you,” he pauses, then he reaches out a hand for jeonghan to take it, “same for me.”
jeonghan stares at the hand offered to him and like all the other times, he takes it.
//
“ddaddu-ya,” jeonghan speaks after staying quiet for a long time, “thank you.”
they are now lying side by side on jeonghan’s bed, a decent amount of space between them, their pinkies intertwined. seungcheol looks over at him, his eyes heavy and gives him a lazy, soft smile. with his free hand, he reaches out and tucks jeonghan’s hair behind his ear. “for what?”
“for taking good care of me.”
