"I Have No Quarrel With Any Of Her Mercenary Pets So Long As They Do Not Overstep Their Bounds—or Presume

various things spoken in an adventuring party pt.3

a little assortment of quotes and sayings i've found doom scrolling through pinterest that i think an adventuring party would say during their never ending perilous adventures . please do not copy/repost or add to this list, thank you!

Affectionate ❛ how terrible it is to love something that death can touch  ❜ ❛ i never craved attention until i tasted yours  ❜ ❛ i don’t want to have the world’s attention. Yours is enough.  ❜ ❛ you cant just touch my soul and leave  ❜ ❛ your hands are scarred from murder, and yet I trust them completely  ❜

Questions ❛ you seem somewhat familiar. have i threatened you before?  ❜ ❛ why am I so fascinated by you?  ❜ ❛ you risked so much for me. why would you do such a thing?  ❜ ❛ it’s time you start talking! what did you do?!  ❜ ❛ do you really think they were a tender flower you could trample upon?  ❜

Banter ❛ i just like to argue with you cause it’s funny.  ❜ ❛ unfortunately for everyone, i will keep doing whatever i want.  ❜ ❛ i think god is gonna have to kill me twice.  ❜ ❛ the next time i open up to someone is my autopsy  ❜ ❛ you walk a fine line between beautifully macabre and uncharacteristically psychotic, you know that?  ❜

Tragedy ❛ i thought we’d have more time  ❜ ❛ if i disappear, will you look for me?  ❜ ❛ let us live, since we must die  ❜ ❛ i cant live in a world where you dont exist  ❜ ❛ i talk to the gods, but the sky is empty.  ❜

Fierce ❛ do not forget what i am.  ❜ ❛ this destruction will be your rebirth.  ❜ ❛ you are filled with poison but blessed with beauty and rage  ❜ ❛ when you are not fed love on a silver spoon, you learn to lick it off knives  ❜ ❛ you have no power over me.  ❜

Antagonistic ❛ leave them at the bottom of the grave they dug for you.  ❜ ❛ and you call me a monster  ❜ ❛ being against evil doesn’t make you good.  ❜ ❛ so, tell me little one, do you want to punish those that have wronged you?  ❜ ❛ i’m the friendliest evil person you will ever meet. ❜

BONUS

FROM THE HERO TO THE VILLAIN ❛ running doesn’t matter. I’ll hunt you down if i have to  ❜ ❛ no one wearing a crown comes in the name of peace  ❜ ❛ our bones are stained with sin, scorched from fire, broken by betrayal, soaked with blood, and yet we still keep fighting!  ❜ ❛ you want to kill me? fine. get in line.  ❜

FROM THE VILLAIN TO THE HERO ❛ i’ve met scarecrows with more spine than you  ❜ ❛ can you hear the screams of the people? can you hear them serenading me as i ascend? their pain is my pleasure in the heavens. they worship me with their grief. and now so will you.  ❜ ❛ if bravery had a face, it certainly wouldn’t look like yours  ❜ ❛ my power knows no bounds, and your efforts to defy me are like whispers lost in a hurricane  ❜ ❛ oh, look at you, attempting greatness! pity it’s just an attempt.  ❜

"Ow, that hurts."

"I've had worse. Not much worse, admittedly, but."

"Get your hands off me!"

"Don't touch me!"

"Get it out of me!"

"Fuck, that stings."

"You just stabbed me! With a knife!"

"It just hurts a bit."

"I'll get over it, I just need to be a huge bitch first."

"My chest is killing me."

"S'just a bit of blood loss..."

"Oh, I bled through my shirt. Cool."

"How long did you think you could hide this?"

"Okay, never mind, this is agony."

"I've never felt anything this bad before."

"I think it's broken."

"I think you broke it."

"How could you do this to me?"

"I trusted you, like an idiot."

"Ow, fuck, ow."

"I think I'm gonna faint."

"Wheeeee... woozy..."

"It's just a minor, uh. Well. Concussion."

"Don't freak out. Don't freak out!"

"Can I trust you?"

"You can't tell anyone."

"... I fell out of a tree."

"It's fine, it's fine, it'll heal."

"Oh, that's dislocated, isn't it?"

"That's not meant to make that noise."

Another Random Headcanon // @neredoesnotfail

Giving Companion!Nere the Sussur Bark Greatsword is just -chef's kiss- Why? you might you ask. "So, you can't cast more than basic magic again because you're no longer a warlock of the Absolute? Here, take this sword. Use that right and the other person won't be able to use magic either." 😊

Consider it a personal blessing.

[ Please ignore the hireling information in the tags and under the level description. I am on console and modifying a hireling is, thus far, the only way I can recruit him. I desperately need the "recruit any NPC" mod to drop for console. 😂 ]

SENTENCE MEME BALDUR'S GATE 3 / PART SIX

leave us in peace and we shall leave you in kind.

cut the crap.

we just want to go home.

enough of this charade.

i'll not play pretend anymore.

you'll soon learn what it means to ally yourself with the likes of this garbage.

i'm free now, and i'm never going back.

fuck them.

felt good letting off a little steam.

if i burn any hotter, i might explode.

don't get too close until i've found a way to calm down.

it's a bit early to be getting into tragic backstories.

let's save the scar-show for later after we've worked up an appetite for tragedy.

in the grand scheme of things, i'm inconsequential [to her].

she favored me like a child favors a captive pet.

it had the makings of a good stage show, but i did not want to be one of the players.

torture, bloodsport? or perhaps just a good old-fashioned walloping?

you owe me nothing.

i could extort you, if that's what you want.

you're teasing me now.

ignorance is alive and well it seems.

don't make me get the wooden spoon.

you'd best have one hells of an apology for me.

if you think your precious little god holds any power here, you're in for a surprise.

do you treat all your guests so poorly?

i don't like busybodies.

you are as thick as they come.

are you telling me you made love to a goddess?

i shared a bed with a goddess and yet i wasn't satisfied.

shall i share the story behind it or would you rather head straight to its sordid finale?

how are you still alive?

we've come this far together and we'll continue on together.

even i am tired of the sound of my own voice.

i'll rip your spine out of your asshole.

i'll use your blood to spice my stew.

i'll keep you alive until i've sucked the marrow from your bones.

killing me is a waste of time.

you bastard, you ruined everything.

this is an interesting way of thanking me.

a slap is all you deserve.

a hag was never going to help you.

they don't help anyone but themselves.

that double-crossing, filthy, lying hag.

focus on the positive.

forgive the aroma.

perhaps that is why i have survived so long where more fearsome peers have not.

your loyalty is admirable but misplaced.

his kind have charm beyond our mortal means to resist.

who'd keep a secret like that from his friends?

you can't trust anyone these days.

even in the middle of nowhere, he can reach me.

why do you insist on exhuming the past?

people think the biggest threat to a vampire is a cleric with a stake.

they're scheming, paranoid, power-hungry beasts.

i am what i must be, says what i must be.

how does it feel to be a devil?

i can't tell if you're being silly or serious.

you have to admire the man's ambition.

i promise i will not betray your trust.

you kept me by your side despite the menace i am.

i learned quick how to stay alive.

to feel invincible again.

this isn't where i thought i'd end up.

maybe when this is all done, you can show me where you came from.

i'm not normally one to begrudge someone their secrets, but..

i'm already blessed to have you at my side.

don't you cut a fine figure.

i am not some lower city coinlad offering you a tumble.

there is nothing so depressing as learning one's true value.

i could use someone with your skills.

they're ravenous predators with fangs like daggers.

it's hardly an irrational fear to harbor.

you've been decent to me, so far.

everyone's got their own fears.

maybe that's what i like about you.

all of this was for nothing.

if you're here to help, get to the fight quickly.

gods, i thought you were one of those beasts.

i'm not chasing after it, if that's what you're thinking.

the little beast's charming once you get accustomed to the smell of rotting flesh.

The  best  revenge  is  not  to  be  like  your  enemy.

The  best  revenge  is  living  well.

Unfortunately,  we're  all  out  of  'bitter  revenge'  at  the  moment,  so  it's  either  tea  or  nothing.

Revenge,  the  sweetest  morsel  to  the  mouth  that  ever  was  cooked  in  hell.

Revenge  may  be  wicked,  but  it’s  natural.

Tell  me,  Is  revenge  a  science,  or  an  art?

Beware  the  fury  of  a  patient  man.

Careful,  [Name].  You’re  ill-suited  to  the  revenge  game.

Revenge  is  not  sweet;  it  is  gloomy  and  a  waste  of  time.

Our  souls  may  be  consumed  by  shadows,  but  that  doesn't  mean  we  have  to  behave  as  monsters.

There  is  no  such  thing  as  justice,  all  the  best  that  we  can  hope  for  is  revenge.

Justice,  like  beauty,  is  in  the  eye  of  the  beholder.  Some  see  an  innocent  victim.  Others  will  see  evil  incarnate  getting  exactly  what's  deserved.

There  is  nothing  wrong  with  revenge.  The  wrong  has  already  been  done,  or  there  would  be  no  need  to  even  the  score.

𝐀𝐆𝐆𝐑𝐄𝐒𝐒𝐈𝐕𝐄 𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐆𝐄𝐀𝐍𝐂𝐄

Let  the  flames  begin.

I  swore  on  my  knees  at  the  altar  where  you  held  me  that  I  would  kill  you. 

I  will  hurt  you  for  this.  I  don't  know  how  yet,  but  give  me  time. 

I  want  to  commit  the  murder  I  was  imprisoned  for.

And  you,  you  better  run  because  I'm  going  to  destroy  you  for  what  you've  taken  from  me.

I  will  write  your  name  in  the  ruin  of  them.  I  will  paint  you  across  history  in  the  color  of  their  blood.

If  someone  murders  your  child,  find  a  machete  and  take  his  head  off.

Revenge  is  what  I  want.  Nothing  but  pure  unadulterated  revenge. 

An  eye  for  an  eye  is  never  enough.  Never,  never,  never.

I  will  grind  your  bones  to  dust.

If  you  have  to  injure  someone,  then  make  it  so  severe  that  his  vengeance  need  not  be  feared.

The  hour  is  late,  and  the  time  for  forgiveness  has  passed.  This  is  the  hour  of  blood.

I  will  be  everywhere  you  look  but  nowhere  to  be  found  and  that  will  be  my  revenge.

I'm  going  to  carve  my  name  into  his  soul

You  don’t  have  any  reason  to  be  mad  at  me.  You  stole  my  life  and  I  stole  it  back.

How are you feeling?

Currently working on the carrd, but I've decided to move Nere from @morethanthedarkness to his own main blog, and I may be making my drow a sideblog, not to replace their main, but for me to be able to still write on them with more ease, even when my focus is elsewhere. Possibly same with @dirgeforthedead .

I'll post the carrd here with a pinned post as soon as I have it mostly set up.
