“I am not with you" she snapped "I am fucking you"
"The only thing fit for a bastard-born brute, right?"
"I didn't say that"
"You don't need to. You've said it a thousand times before"
"Then why did you bother cutting in at the ball?"
"Because I was fucking jealous!" he roared, wings splaying. "You looked like a queen, and it was painfully obvious that you should be with a princeling like Eris and not a low-born nothing like me! But go ahead, Nesta. Go ahead and fucking marry him and good fucking luck to you!"
"Eris is the Brute" she shot back "He is a brute and a piece of shit. And I would marry him, because I am just like him!"
The words echoed through the room.
His pained face gutted her. "I deserve Eris" Her voice cracked.”

“Nesta said hoarsely, " You are good, Cassian. And you are brave, and brilliant, and kind. I could kill anyone who has ever made you feel less than that -- less than what you are. And I know I'm part of that group, and I hate it" Her eyes burned, but she fought past it. " You are everything I have never been, and will never be good enough for. Your friends know it, and I have carried it around with me all this time - that I do not deserve you.”

“Today’s FBI could benefit greatly from a return to the leadership models, cultural traits, and operational practices that made it great. To some degree, these factors were deprioritized, watered down, and sometimes discarded for new-era management approaches embraced by corporate America…” (Excerpt from “Wanted: The FBI I Once Knew).”

“We let it slide,
turned our eyes inside-blind
when you made our little sister cry
burnt tears,
blood, we let it slide
when you held our brother
by the throat
until he choked
out
and died.
We let it slide
when we finally tried
to make a sound but
you had each other’s back
and lied.
We let it slide.
Even now
we let it slide.”
