Charming

(All of these are from Trying. Pls watch Trying.)

, to : You never do anything by the book and it always works out.
Evander: I do everything by the book and it never works out.
Evander: Oh my god, did I buy the wrong bloody book?!

: Just be yourself.
: No. Nooooo. No one should be themselves until they know it's safe. Be someone else until they like you, then become yourself gradually, so you don't scare them off.

: Don't be a pushover.
: Why is that an insult? Maybe the problem is with the people pushing us over.

(on her wedding day): In fact, I'd say I've never been happier. My parents are so proud. I'm finally back in the family newsletter!
Brynn: One of my cousins thought I'd died.

[in the 1850s, around Lowri's first pregnancy]
Eamon, to : Hey hey, I've got some post-partum gifts! I got a new journal; and I found us Shelley's Ode to the West Wind. I feel... well, I mean, one assumes we'll be in a Shelley place.

not actually sure how well this fits the characters but #yolo it was too good an exchange not to include

: Look, I know I'm a bad person, but it's because of what happened to me.
: What do you mean, what happened to you?
Fitz: Nothing. Nothing bad has ever happened to me.
Art: Oh my goodness, mate, I'm so sorry, you should have said. When did this not happen?
Fitz: No; nothing bad happening can be ruinous to a person. I went to this AA meeting, and everyone there had reasons for their mistakes. I haven't got any! I'm just an arsehole!
Fitz: Feel free to interrupt.

Repurposing some of the old ones I posted, bringing in some new ones and also just reposting some of my faves cause I want to.

: You've been avoiding me.
: What? No.
LOWRI: You have the same look on your face as you did when you were ten and put Oz's favourite frog in the microwave.
PHYRI: I never pressed start.

: Since it's come to this, I'm going to find out everything about this guy. and if he's an asshole, I'm going to punch him!
: And if he ends up being a decent guy?
MABEL: I'll punch him gently!

: well, I didn’t break the window. That was done by a man in a black trench coat with a hat. The same man who attacked me when I tried to stop him stealing the book.
: He attacked you?
TILDA: I disturbed him and he ran off with the book. I gave chase and he took a shot at me. So I did the only thing I could in the circumstances.
EUGENE: you called for help...?
TILDA: I stabbed him in the shoulder.

: It's our investigative office there, how do you not remember your own phone number?
:I put it under...
Thomas: Oh, my gosh. It's 555-0135.
Barbie: How do you remember our phone number?
Thomas: It's a part of the Fibonacci sequence, how do you not remember it?
Barbie: What did you just say to me?
Thomas: Fibonacci.
Barbie: You take that back!

Lowri: Porphyria’s at that age when a young girl has only one thing on her mind.
Socialite: Boys?
Porphyria: Homicide.

Eamon Dempsey. Hey, hey: [bringing the pyjamas from the bed, presenting them to her] these are pyjamas; they're to sleep in; you're to climb into them, you understand?
Lowri: [taking them, is a little tipsy] Thank you.
Eamon. And you do your sleeping on the couch, see?-not on the bed, not on the chair: on the couch; is that clear?
Lowri. Do you know my favorite poem?
Eamon. Ah, you already recited that for me. [He goes to get some blankets from the bed].
Lowri [as he lays them out on the ottoman] I refuse a rose from a couch of snows. In the Acroceraunian mountains. Keats.
Eamon. Shelley.
Lowri. Keats!
Eamon. If you just keep your mind off the poetry and on the pyjamas, everything'll be alright; see?
Lowri. It's Keats.
Eamon. I'll be- it's Shelley. I'll be back in about ten minutes.
Lowri [to his back as he goes to the door] Keats.

: So, how have you been?
: Fine. Except for this headache. Comes and goes.
: -enters the room-
Basil: Oh look, there it is.

Ben: Pfft, Ari and I don't have pet names for each other, we're cool.
Garrett: -unconvinced- Um, sure. Okay... Ben, what do bees make?
Ben: Honey?
Ari, from the other room: Yes, love?

: I'm having problems with a guy.
Porphyria: Like “his dead body won’t fit in your car” problems or “you like him” problems?
Lycoris: “I like him” problems.
Porphyria: Too bad, I would have actually helped you with the other one.

Ben: If I run and jump at Ari, he will almost definitely catch me.
Ben: *runs at Ari*
Ari: BEN NO I’M HOLDING COFFEE–
Ari: *drops the coffee to catch Ben*

Ari: You have to pick your battles.
Ben: I am! I'm picking all of them!

You posted this one a while back not knowing who it might fit and I think I found a match

Christabel: -twirls in dark attire- how do I look?
: Like a widow in mourning.
Christa: Perfect! He'll know I'm available!

Faustus Prewett: You guys do realize how insane this is, right?
: Yes.
: You call it insane, we call it Tuesday.
Faustus: It's Thursday.
Ben: Is it really?

This is a song and I didn't remember if we had a thread for that, so I'm posting here:

I was listening to Doja Cat and the song You Right (ft. The Weeknd) is so Thomula ( & )

Quote:You right, I got my guy
But I, I, can't help it, I want you

Quote:I can't stop and look the other way
'Cause I know what could be, babe
And you never feel the same
You'd be thinkin' 'bout it every day
Don't believe in fairytales, but we got our fantasies

Cash: Do you ever tell someone a casual fact about your childhood and then realize that fact is anything but casual

A couple more from Trying, and one from WWDITS?

Trystan: The rings were my favourite part. I love a big gesture. It was the little gestures I couldn't do.
Ambrosia: What, like not having an affair?

: Three years ago I thought we were going to get the plant/potions business, I thought we were going to get married, I thought we were going to live in my house.
Noble: And now...
: Nothing is going to stop us from getting married, okay?
Daffy: Even if we're homeless.
Daffy: I actually quite like outdoor weddings.

: Rich humans are basically like veal. Conceptually repulsive, but so buttery on my tongue.

: From now on, we will be using code names. You can address me as Eagle One.

and , code name: Been There, Done That.
is Currently Doing That.
is It Happened Once In A Dream.
, code name: If I Had To Pick A Werewolf.
is Eagle Two.

Tariq: Oh thank god.

(later) Ishmael: This is Eagle One. Been There, Done That are leaving the stage; I'd Be Lying If I Said I Hadn't Thought About It () is in position.

so anyway, the vampire caverns are fun

The only alive acquaintance I can think of for Phyri is Cal, so in he goes to this incorrect quote

: Okay. Yeah. I get it. You saw a dead lady’s corpse when you were a little girl, and you were fine.

: Yes. Although for some reason that I do not understand, I kept staging my own death. Pretending that I drowned in the bathtub, faking electrical shock. It really freaked my parents out, and once when Oz found me hanging he had to go see the school psychologist.

Cal: But otherwise you were fine.

Phyri: Yeah.

more WWDITS quotes --

Well how am I going to eat if I don't prey on people, dummy?

If I find I'm in a situation where an idiot is complaining to me, you can either kill them or you can pretend to listen to them.

Sina, to : You are supposed to support me when I want to murder someone!

These poor women. They take a lovely, handsome chap from the street, make him their husband, and then, in the blinks of an eye, he becomes a big, lazy sack of shit. So sad.

I don't kiss and tell. But I can tell you... I don't kiss.

Elliot: If you answer a few questions for me, I can basically pinpoint the day you’re going to die.
