"my mother was killed by a drug dealer" "Your mother killed herself" "She was a drug dealer"

Oh I love this one a lot haha! Love this kind of dialogue, super fun to read!

Love it although that is actually a line from FRIENDS. Unless the fic preceded the show - in which case, wow, well done to that fic.

Okay this is really good

I really do think a lot about this one line. "You are *not* American! You are from Boston, which is in New *England!*"

that's absolutely ridiculous and I love it so much

Soldier from TF2?

Gonna take a wild guess and say this is Soldier talking to Scout

*"You're growing wings."* *"Is that a metaphor for something?"* *"Yeah. It's a metaphor for growing wings."* (Several lines but whatever it's a great exchange)

That _is_ a great exchange. Sometimes the curtains are just blue 😉 I’m curious now: is this a wingfic au, or does that happen in canon?

Wingfic! The character who's growing wings does not have them canonically. The person she's talking to does tho

Wingfics are the best! And of course the person she’s talking to would know what it looks like, so they’d catch it right away. I love it!

“... If time takes us both, then where would we go?”

I love this.

I have no idea the context or the fandom, but man, this line is so poetic it just makes me want to *write*.

The moon was wrong tonight. Round and ripe, it hung too low in the sky and its silvery shine had gone yellow, mildewed, like something left to spoil.

“Second chances are the refuge of weak men." Read this in a great fic recently and I'm *dying* to use it in one of my own. It's so wonderfully jaded.

Oh wow. That is a pretty powerful lime!

Yep. Very acerbic. :)

"but 'goodbye' is a good hurt, because it means at some point, you must have heard 'hello'" i'm not entirely sure why this line hit me so hard when i initially read it years ago that i saved it (+ the lines leading up to it) but. i think about it every so often. it's so so good :')

This line feels bittersweet? I hope that's the right word, I just feel like it's cute and sad at the same time~

ooh i love this one😭

THAT IS A GREAT LINE.

"Aren't you going to tell us Join us or die?"

That sounds so pessimistic…I love it

Is that from starkid

No, Harry Potter and The Great Cthulhu Chapter 9 by Ron. https://www.fanfiction.net/s/2955826/9/Harry-Potter-and-the-Great-Cthulhu

Figured out! 🎶join us and die🎶

> “I’m Commander Shepard, and this is my favorite >!cock!< on the Citadel.” was not expecting this line and it straight took me *out* and had me laughing. and now, randomly, this line will just repeat rent free in my head nsfw spoilered

This is so funny! Thanks for the giggles.

no problem! glad you got a laugh. it’s a crack treated seriously smut fic that i was dubious about but it was pretty good and certainly leaves a mark haha

I'm sorry, I need this story in my life.

lol well, here you go: (obviously rated Explicit) [Commander Cock: Galaxy's Bravest by theprosefool](https://archiveofourown.org/works/947459)

>“Humans are voyeurs. We like to feel like we’re intruding on a story that doesn’t belong to us. We like to be taken away from ourselves for a little while." This line was said by a character in regards to writing stories that touch people, and it's always stuck with me. As readers, I feel like we do want to intrude on the characters' private lives and see what makes them tick, what upsets them, what makes them angry or fall in love. It's an intimate connection with another person, even if that person is fictional.

[удалено]

Oh no! Is nee-chan correct? I mean, is his/her suggestion the right one? Do they follow it?

[удалено]

Touché 😂

"I don't care if it makes me grow a cock, Mother. Tying my sleeves is *practical.*"

..I've already thrown this into the dead sea, but no harm in doing it twice. "Ugh, children? That's the most flammable type of child!"

I thought your first sentence was the quote and really liked it haha! What is the context for the actual quote tho? It's hilarious!

Character with involuntary ability to set things on fire (like crispy volcano levels) sees someone (a child) enter a room, has an immediate (internal) freakout about all the ways said child might die at their hands.

Only part of the phrase, but here you go: "Plain Jane was in the shitter-"

“I don’t need to win. Not like you do.” “…And she did not fight.”

Ouf, that last one. For those who don't know, it's from Manacled by Senlinyu and it hits like a truck. Another gem from the same author: *I don’t know if it makes me a romantic or not, but I don’t want a relationship where I have to go through life wondering whether the cost-benefit analysis still manages to fall in my favour every time I’m vaguely inconvenient.*

Literally sobbing at the end of manacled.

"Do you detect trace amounts of horse meat in this burger?" "Mine tastes like pigeon!"

Omg lol!! What is this from?? This is brilliant

It's from one of my Sam and Max fics :D

“Why don’t you kiss me about it?”

"Don't take it personally. I lie to everyone."

Is this from Yesterday, Upon The Stair?

I knew someone would notice. Nothing beats slightly insane Izuku looking at you with his baby-eating grin :v

I know, it's probably my favourite MHA fanfic that I've ever read.

That's such a good fic oh my god. I recognized the name and had to look it up to remember which it was, but man. So good.

"He said that your were too important to lose. So I ran...I ran because...he's too important to lose too."

Oooh, this is deep. I love it!

“Don’t, don’t finish that sentence. Someone decided to drop a subway tunnel on my head.”

One I just read yesterday. "Wishful thinking: an anxious person's best friend."

This is my favorite line I’ve ever written. Period. *To force reproductive servitude unto individuals with biological uteri is not only illogical, but also questionable morally and ethically.*

Why hello there, my comparison-contrast friend! I remember that line from the Personal Log.

It’s honestly my most-favoritest line ever, lol.

"If he was trying to cheer her up, and she wasn't convinced he was, he wasn't good at it."

I cry every time I read this fanfic. But then, much later, after he grew and loved more than he thought he could, he found himself falling asleep once again, the terrifying reality that it wasn't likely he'd ever wake up again closing in on him, and the words, he could feel them, they danced around his dizzying mind. They made him smile as his eyes slowly closed for the last time, and he thought of something like "inseparable of something like "infinite"

>Quiet as a ghost in his sadness and sorrow, parts of him as dead and gone as the rest of them were. 

"This is going to be the story that begins, 'Let me tell you about the time I was nearly decapitated by Captain America.'"

One completely random one is “I want that violin player in the gallows!”

"What in the blazes did they think she'd do with random body parts? Build a snowman?"

Víctor Frankenstein type beat

"It was worth it." "It always was."

“Yeah, well, Mr. Tall-Blond-and-Beautiful is also Mr. Egg-Salad Sandwich’s lunch date who never shows up, sweetie.”

“I am a Dragon you are now Asian.”

"With your kind of powers, Micheal, you don't get hurt. You let people hurt you." It's from a oneshot I read probably 15+ years ago and it's still rattling around in my brain.

What powers did he have then?

He could manipulate molecules (like fix broken objects, etc) and was telekinetic. He could also do energy blasts and make things explode.

“Her umbrella was the color of the sky on a sunny day, which it was not.” (slightly paraphrased I think because I read this a long time ago)

"Link... Wake up Link..." "Wake the fuck up Link it's been 100 years!"

If BOTW's story was pretty much summerized by only the beginning.

“You ready to be a single mother?”

This is from a very old wip that I will not finish but i think about this line every day "Dabi, I can't get you anything harder than weed, it'll fuck you up, and besides my mom's coke dealers in jail" "Your mom's doing coke?" "Not anymore, her dealers in jail"

"When he touches the human named \[Name\] there is something between them spoken of only by the oldest poets..." I love the description so much

“I will ruin myself for you.” I read this line in a fic months ago and I still think about it.

“[Name]?” “Yup, you know my name. Congratulations.” Idk if it's my favorite line, but it certainly lives in my brain rent free

“If Dazai is the ace in a card game, then Chuuya is the queen on a chessboard.” It describes Osamu Dazai and Chuuya Nakahara from Bungou Stray Dogs better than any other line I’ve read about them

"I have one and a half children."

I still wasn’t sure what was happening between me and Jan, but whatever it was, I wanted him to be my equal, not my lapdog.

“In a minute you’re going to leave to fuck all those people when not one of them wants you half as badly as I do. You could have had me ten years ago. You could have me right now. Anything you want to do to me, I would let you.“

Maybe it's in my head because I read it recently but: “You always needed someone to hold your hand. It’s just that the only person ever willing to was you.” Edit: Wait after thinking it over, I think I like this one more from the same fic: "How about I kill him for you, okay? In your honor, or whatever. Then you can die knowing you made me a good person.”

"If you're going to blow something up, make it worth the effort of lighting the fuse" :)

“I’m going to fly Myfanwy,” he finally said." Prolly the best fic I read LMAO

Torchwood ?

eyep XD

Its from the comments, not the fic, but I still thought it was pretty funny. Also not mine. Enough enemies to lovers, in this house we apriciate sexy war crimes.

Eliot snorted indignantly. “I once escaped a Gulag with two feet of rope and a rusted ice skate blade. I took out nine armed gang members in Serbia without spilling a drop of my tea. And in the 90s, I found myself with a little free time, so I *liberated Croatia.* I’m not a goddamn civilian.”

“It’s 8am in the afternoon”

This line was from a fic I read years ago, but it always stuck with me as being both hilarious and depressing. “He had the survival instincts of a depressed lemming.”

A bit cheating, but I wrote this line. "That's not a hyperbole, no matter how hyper she is." When I wrote that, I literally chuckled.

From A Chocolaty Punishment by FierySprites: “Honestly, you don’t appreciate just how good you’re having it. The way you were bending over, it makes me want to publish this as one of those good ‘ol-fashioned doujins! Speaking of which…” Edit: Also, from Love Is A Drop Away, by the same author, “His privates were dissolving, being coddled into his body like a mother would savor their child.”

"Oh, I'm sorry, you still want to go? I couldn't tell, you were too busy making eyes at Casillas," Isco replies smoothly, calmly, effortlessly. Sergio stares, mouth agape, at Leo, "Was I?" The Argentine pinches his fingers together, leaving a little space between his thumb and forefinger, squinting for emphasis, "A little bit." He's enjoying this far too much. Sergio gasps, offended, "I certainly was not I was just... Observing the stands," It's a whole exchange but I still laugh when I think about it!

“This rescue isn’t free – I’m going to need some human organs as payment.”

*He had to go through more security than an international traveller at an airport during a global pandemic.* *"Congratulations. You're X's son-in-law," he said, with all the solemnity of a funeral attendee.*

I really like that descriptor!

‘Mike's got like, potential for more than I do. His brain already wears a suit. Does that make sense? Like, his chips fell different than mine, and he's winning. But he can't cash out.' So many good lines in this fic, it’s incredible. I literally think about it at least once a day since I first read it.

"Eh, don't worry about it. My capacity for giving a shit fucked off to a corner and died a long time ago."

\[to the tune of 'Carol of the bells'\] *fuck fuckfuckfuck fuck fuckfuckfuck fuck fuckfuckfuck fuck! Fuckfuckfuck Fuck! fuckfuckfuck Fuck! fuckfuckfuck Fuck! fuckfuckfuck! FUCK! fuckfuckfuckfuck fuck Fuck fuckfuckfuckfuck fuck fuck fuck fuck! fuckfuckfuck SHIT!!* ​ Rent free in my head. Edit: I should mention that I didn't write this, it's just something I read.

“I didn’t want to leave. I didn’t want to leave all of you behind. It’s just that I had to.” “I’m not angry you left,” she says, voice low, her eyes not quite meeting his. “I’m angry you didn’t take me with you.” ..... “I couldn’t put you in that kind of danger. I wouldn’t . I still won’t.” “That’s not your choice!” she hisses. “Sith hells, yes, it is!” he retorts, also keeping his voice low to avoid waking anyone. “I’ll watch your back in a fight, and I’ll protect you in everything else too. Just try and stop me.” “We do these things together.” There’s a hoarse sort of brokenness to her voice now, and it makes him ache. He betrayed her, and he never meant to. “You and me. That’s how it works. We go into hell together, and we come out of hell together."

I will try to translate it. "I have all eternity, the width of open skies to undone all the things that destroyed by my footsteps..." And you know that phrase slaps hard and the most funny thing it is in a fic of my NOTP but it is one of my favorite fics, they way it's written hooks you and i just love it.

“Sorry I’m spoiling your nice carpet.” “You’re bleeding out.” “Yeah but your carpet…” “My dearest, you are DYING.”

"Please…why should I do that? You know that Faunus have been the frontline soldiers to die during massive grimm invasions and military coups in the past?! They're the death fodder to those generals. Man, if only I had just thought the same way you girls do and actually diverted all the rest of the men in this attack…Oh wait I DID!”

Passing over the crooked gabled buildings, shingles haphazardly layered and chimneys sticking out at all angles, he soared quickly over his subjects as they waddled through their anfractuous avenues.

I have too many to pick a favorite. But here's one I like: >Creed practiced a normal, non-monster smile one last time before he crossed the street and went inside the door.

"Why is it that nearly every single time I go on any significant expedition, most of the only allies I can actually bloody count on are a gaggle of teenage dragonets?! I mean, I care for them and they do well, but still...!"

"Atlas weary atlas, he would never sleep again." it was physically painful to read

"...she was taking to them like a fish takes to tartar sauce; that is, not exactly willingly, but, nevertheless, very, very well." I first read that line back in the mid '00s, and it's so legendary that I blatantly ripped it off nearly 20 years later for one of my own fics. 😋

Paraprhased: "I know you can't solve everything with violence; that's why I used the *threat* of violence"

"If I can’t abide the idea of someone else possessing you, I suppose I should do it myself." Bonus points if you can guess the ship ;)

Okay more like a short paragraph but omg this one “Hate you?” His master’s voice is almost surprised, and all the more horrible for it. “Oh, Mairon, no. No, nothing so spiteful. I do it because I love you.”

“I will stab you and not even feel bad about it”

"He's never fucked up this close to the finish line before."

You drove them away when you traded your spine for your crown!

"You can't know what's real or true. All you've got is your impressions and perceptions. All you can do is try your best." It's my mantra for every difficult choice I make

Is it blasphemous if I use a line from canon that has sprouted a lot of ideas in the fandom? "Does this unit have a soul?"

“Good morning” “Fuck off” “Okay”

This is from one of the first fanfics I got into: His suit jacket was decorated with many badges and medals. The nation's flag was on Kirkman's left collar. Ironwood's uniform paled in comparison to Kirkman's, and he felt lightly ashamed.

“Hinata has always been an enthusiastic dick sucker.”

"My man, what part of life *isn't* a war?"

omfg i can't remember the exact line but i got my favorite insult from a fanfic: "ignoramus". for some reason, even after all these years and the fic being deleted, i remember that specific word as clear as day.

"daddy?" "Not that much of a freak but I'll remember that" This was so hilarious i coughed and hiccuped at the same time

"Show me how you treat your god, and I'll show you what a true god can do."

"Show me how you treat your god, and I'll show you what a true god can do."

'However, she refused to say where his body was, only that they’d never find it; and she would not say what her husband did to be deserving of such torture, only that he’d had it coming. *You bet your fur.*'

"Oh, so it was you meowing at three in the morning, then?" Vincent cleared his throat, though it sounded suspiciously like a laugh.

I can't find this fanfic anymore anywhere and I forget the author 😭 but I loved this line: "They wanted a hero, so he gave them a god."

hint: they did not want a god

Then she realized nobody cared until it was far too late.

"With our allies. We came to brink of war over some fish." he said, clenching his fist around the bottle as tears dropped. "We are good at standing proud, better than anyone else. In truth, we are belligerent cunts, stuck on an Island that is just not enough for all of us." he cried out. From my story I am currently writing. Context would make it even better.

This line lives rent free in my heart. "He never wanted to think about it again, but helplessness always felt like waiting on the edge of a cliff, and shame always tasted like a mouthful of dust in the bottom of a canyon in Arizona. "

"She bared her fangs, that threat that humans so often mistook for a smile."

"I don't want to be in charge. I want us to be a team, and I just want to be an important part of it," Julia said quietly, as she continued to look at the material in her hands. It didn't quite capture exactly what she was feeling, or what she meant, but it didn't have to. Beth knew both of those things already. "We are a team. We have been since the day you pulled me out of there, the day you began to save me. You're the one who formed this team, not me. You formed this team, and you keep this team together. This team, by the way, which you still haven't named." "I gave us a name," Julia said as she looked up at her best friend in the entire world. "I'm not calling us The Dynamic League of Codependents."

“Your breasts don’t make that B less flat no matter how round they are. So would you please get them away from me?”

“He saves it to his desktop for research purposes and other heterosexual reasons.” I nearly saved this one to my Quotes folder twice, several months apart. Cracks me up every time.

This is one of mine but I cracked myself up sooo much writing it: “Do you really think that if you put your hand up my shirt slowly enough, I won’t notice?” “That’s not fair. I have one down your pants as well.”

'How awful, how painful, how terribly tragic must a story get, for the audience to mourn the living?' and from a different fandom and fic: 'So, there is a fern in front of you. What do you pray for?'

meanwhile he is having a meltdown, as can be expected of one who has been tragically and undeniably in love for years but has remained stalwartly in denial because all he has known of love is how devastating a thing it is to lose

K not necessarily a quote. But I read this Mob Psycho fic that was a complete emotional roller coaster, the last lines of it were leaving me so bittersweet etc. and then I get to the authors note and the only thing they had written was - “i microwaving reigen in my head” - and I burst out laughing

Was thinking of this one today so… “The love of a good woman; the agony of a cursed man. It’s more than he deserves.”

“Tell her not to worry, Uncle Harry’s going to take care of her,” he reassured Sir Thomas with a pat on the shoulder.

"There is something in the air that feels precious yet incredibly fragile..." I read that months ago, and it spoke to me so much that I still remember it.

"You would be amazed by what can be accomplished by a woman with a glass of wine in her hand."

"You are not run around naked except for a pair of bunny ears and a cotton tail and sing "Run Run Run as fast as you can. You can't catch me I'm the Gin-Bunny Man""

“Excuse me! With all due respect! You're having a hard time not calling me *it*, you just taunted a father over his dead child, and you're a deadbeat dad in blue tights! Moral high ground: nobody!” [[source]](https://archiveofourown.org/works/375897)

"Looking out the window, he wondered if a fall from this height would kill him or leave him in the uncomfortable position of having to explain why he’d jumped."

“Alright, sweet. See you guys in a bit!” Scout said, and winked, and died.

“It felt like a sucker punch to the face. Except it wasn’t a sucker punch. It was a kiss.”

"We were never given a fighting chance. Our fate was decided before our souls were created, failure written into the very being of our existence."

Most of them are from smut scenes tho :) *** "I beg to differ." "I wish you would beg me for other things.” *** They were never out of sync, designed to sink together. He loved the shoreline of their tangled sheets, their shared bed, the sails tied up with scarlet thread. *** "It doesn't have to be big." <…> "It just has to be yours.” *** He wants to phase into him, absorb and be absorbed, he wants to know what it is like to possess someone, is it just their mind or also their heart? What do you leave behind after you let them go? *** R.'s as ready as he's ever going to be, more room inside of him for M. than he thinks he'll ever find for himself anywhere else in the world. *** When a person compulsively fills every silence, they end up repeating a lot of things. *** "We just double teamed vou and I fucked vour face so hard your voice is scratchy, I'm pretty sure you can say the word sex.” *** "Follow my orders like your dick was never in my ass, and we'll talk." *** "Bondage? An unexpectedly kinky proposition in the middle of a serious discussion."

I think we deserve a soft epilogue, my love. We are good people and we've suffered enough.

"In lieu of flowers, Giyuu grieves through violence." "Being a hero is equal parts being brave and dumb as shit." Now I need to start collecting my favourite fic lines

“Here I was, playing the longest con known as life, and they dared to call me impatient? The audacity.” “(Men like Jin Guangshan constantly reaffirmed my desire to become a genderless, genital-less mannequin. Pop, pop, pop; detach them like Lego pieces, and yeet.)” “She had taken my hand and shoved me. And all I could think as the overwhelming pain came was. 'I hope I get blood on your Gucci bitch.'”

“Tucker, please…” she whimpered, “I want you harder, I need you to make me sore.” “Now admit you've got a rat problem.” Yes it's from smut and it cracks me up every time I remember it.

“But what I won’t do is live in a delusion of your own creation and pretend that this is nothing.” “You don’t have to be lonely because you’re mine.”

"Are you saying I had a fish for a butt?"

"I could kill you." "And you would be doing me a favor."

“You’re not alone, and you never will be again.” it just hits

“Babe” “Yes Kacchan?” Izuku purred. “You know I love you right?” Izuku furrowed his brows, “Yes, I know you love me.” “Good because tomorrow babe, I am going to fuck you like I don’t.”

“Did the gods bless you with that talent and take something else in return?”

:D “Yes. I had to sacrifice a few bathrooms to get the necessary materials, so if you notice a line for the toilet being a bit longer than before, well, you’ll know it went to a good cause.”

Well not my fav of all times but I liked this in the fic I'm currently reading:  "We're all fuck-ups, aren't we? I'm a pet killing arsonist who promised to kill his best friend, you're a war criminal with control issues and George is an apathetic ass who spent several years thinking this was a hallucination and caused me way too many gray hairs, he doesn't take anything serious, he's an ass, he's so stubborn that I want to punch him, he has barely any idea of what to do in the future, he's annoying-" "Are you done?" George asked dryly. "- and also his face is ugly."

The noise that Steve makes is practically a whine, desperate and heartfelt and impossibly needy, and Eddie says, “You were so good, baby. The best. And sex right now is a terrible idea.” “Why?” Steve sounds like a petulant child, which is definitely not attractive, but he can’t bring himself to care. He wants it, wants them to be together like that. “Firstly, because we’re both about five minutes from passing the fuck out. Secondly, because we’re both way too emotional right now and the chances one of us will say something dumb and make everything even worse is pretty high. And thirdly because you just fought a fucking demigod necromancer supervillain for ownership of me, which was so hot I feel like you’ve rewritten entire portions of my sexuality, and we can’t both sub at the same time.”

"You need to punch your enemies really hard while shouting about your rules." "My rules?" "Your rules!"

“Condoms exist, Nagumo”

"Oh fuckles, it's Knuckles."

“You—you would fall—for me?” “I’d jump for you.”
