✎𓂃“We are talking about oysters. In the best of lights, they are briny, slurpy vaginas on a plate.”
✎𓂃“I love everything about you, even the sadistic way you drive me mad, and as long as I get you, nothing else matters.”
✎𓂃“I want to hear about everywhere you’ve been and everything you’ve done, and all the places you want to go and things you want to do. I want to sit across from you knowing that everyone else in the world wants to be near you, wants your attention, and I was the one who got it for these short hours.”
She glared at me, her gaze viciously cold. God, this girl hated me. Which was excellent, considering my immediate reaction to her was complete depravity.

“I like you. A lot . It’s very uncomfortable for me.”
“Don’t overthink,” she said, “even though I know it’s your superpower. Whatever this is, we just have to let it happen. It’s better that way, okay? We don’t have to know what comes next. We don’t have to control it.”
