2022 Round 1: Quotes

Status: Closed
This round has closed. It remains open for fills, comments and remixes, but prompts are no longer accepted.
Seventeen Holidays
Round 1: Quotes

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]: year of mingyu

IT IS THE YEAR OF MINGYU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! babe please this was so funny and charming and good ;; there are so many good lines idek where to start, but first of all minghao literally looking over his glasses rims (purchased specifically for this purpose) at mingyu... excellent. mingyu and seokmin having the exact same new years resolutions... also excellent. the way mingyu cannot stop staring at seokmin even though (because) he says he hates him so much.... excellent!!! mingyu admiring himself in his new gym clothes and also sending a faked gym selfie to seokmin... PLEASE he is so mingyu. he is soooooo mingyu.

Being completely honest he doesn’t think the yoga thing is going to work out. It’s been four weeks of regular classes and he still cannot get the breathing right. He has not successfully been able to clear his mind even once. idk why this made me laugh so hard but it did, christ. babe of course your mind isn't clear!!! PULL IT TOGETHER (he won't)

The year of Mingyu - now renamed to the month of Mingyu - ends on January 29, which is the same length as some Februaries, so it still counts as a full month. IT'S THE SAME LENGTH OF SOME FEBRUARIES!!!! it counts!!!!!

honestly this was such a delight start to finish!!!!!!! thank you for working so hard on it and for sharing it with us ♡♡♡
