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

Re: [FILL] intimacy is truth
not kidding when i say i woke up this morning and was genuinely so excited to read this again. partially because admittedly when i read it the first time, for the first half i interpreted it that ksy already knew wonu was a vampire and was just like ugh, you almost killed someone AGAIN? which was quite the vibe ngl but the actual is better and i had to stop and reread things so many times to appreciate them better. aaaaaa. i might have this memorized at this point
”a classic this is exactly what you think and now it's your turn”
- AAAhhhhh
- love the variety of thoughts going through soonyoung’s head. paired with: ””the fact that he wasn’t supposed to know makes him think of ugly things. Uglier even than what he’s doing. - oh i go CRAZY….
- this feeling of like. how do you reconcile romance and genuine sweetness and love with a grotesque reality, with real danger and lying and a guy in an ambulance. how do you have soonyoung possibly deal with all that. and he does so welllll it’s like. HE’S funny but the situation isn’t?
- like at the end when they do a little friendly bicker. when soonyoung cracks a joke or three. that sort of fade to black end with romantic arguing is how i end.. 90% of the things i write and, in tone, it’s always very tacky comedy roll the Nickelodeon credits. but you’ve managed to write this thing with dialogue that SHOULD, by all means, belong in a humorous fluffy fic and stuck it seamlessly into something with a much darker tone and i am obsessed beyond words
”He’s not even scared for his life, that’s the worst part. He’s scared he might not recognize the person he sees in Wonwoo,”
- screaming and crying and, i do not say this lightly, throwing up
”It’s almost more than he was expecting.”
- like OUCH!!!!!
- soonyoung continuing to be scared FOR wonwoo and never OF him.. mmmpfh
”There’s no way to know how different Wonwoo looked when Soonyoung refused to glance,”
- like. this is CHILLING!!!!!!! but also……. ROMANTIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
- what if you were in a horror movie but also a romance!! what if your boyfriend was a monster!!!!!!!!!! woah!!
”I was coming home from work and the streets kept moving and changing. I was getting lost through alleyways that wanted me to get confused.”
- a little TMA moment okay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
”Wonwoo stares at his toes, naked, hairy and bloody.”
- heheheheehehe
- soonyoung SOCKS i cry. he is so genuinely good
”Wonwoo takes a second to hold him back, but when he does he almost makes them fall over from how hard he's holding onto Soonyoung. He tries to reciprocate the intensity, but he finds that he simply isn't as strong anymore.”
- what if i DIE????
”Wonwoo lets out a soulless chuckle.”
- ba dum tsss
”I'm scared that they're gonna run out of the good kimchi at the store. I'm scared that one day the pipes are gonna burst and neither of us would have any clue how to handle that”
- deeply soonyoung..
- also deeply correct!! he’s right!!! they would NOT know how to handle that!!!!!!!!!!!!!
”He wiggles his eyebrows. "But it is…" He kisses Wonwoo again, who kisses back without missing a beat.”
- i dont know how else to just yell THIS IS SOONWOO but god. it is.
- AND HE’S DRACULA’S WIFE
- like you dont even know how upsetting it is that THIS is the most hoshi moment to me. like fuck. he really would say that
