This is what matters, Midnight.”

“انتقام.
عدالت.
عشق.
این‌ها سه داستانی هستند که تمام داستان‌ها از آنها ساخته شده‌اند. سه رکن اصلی و درست به همین ترتیب. مثل سوپ درست کردن برای یتیم‌هاست. باید ابتدا با پیاز شروع کنید، سپس کرفس و بعد هویج. آنها را قطعه قطعه می‌کنید و داخل قابلمه می‌ریزید و می‌پزید. هرچیزی که بعد از این سه داخل قابلمه می‌ریزید بقیه‌ی محتویات هستند. داستان‌ها هم همینطور هستند.”
― April Genevieve Tucholke, quote from Wink Poppy Midnight

“Poppy was saying my name over and over in the drippy sweet voice that had once set me on fire and now just made me feel cold.”

― Agatha Christie, quote from Cat Among the Pigeons

“She’d always imagined life would get better as she grew older.  She would get wiser, discover things, make friends, find the way to her own happiness and out of the misery. Now she realized it wouldn’t happen.  She’d been born cursed and would die cursed and never understand why.  There was nothing to hope for, no happiness ahead. ”
― J.L. Bryan, quote from Jenny Pox

“Then he started fucking, his hips pistoning in a relentless tempo, his long thick cock plunging and withdrawing from root to tip in rapid-fire thrusts. Supporting his weight entirely with his arms and the tips of his toes, he powered into me, his rigid penis nailing me straight into the mattress. I came so hard my vision went black, my body seized with pleasure so intense I was locked in it, suspended in the powerful waves of erotic sensation. I was inundated by the ferocious surge of my climax. My skin tingled from head to toe. Gideon paused on a downstroke, grinding into me, giving my body the steely length of his penis to grasp. My sex spasmed ecstatically around that delicious hardness, gripping him hungrily. “Fuck,” Gideon bit out, “you’re milking my dick so hard.” I shook violently, fighting to breathe. The moment I sagged into the mattress, replete, Gideon pulled his cock out of my trembling slit and left the bed. Bereft, I lifted a hand to him. “Where are you going?” “Hang on.” He shoved his boxer briefs all the way off. He was still hard, his cock rising high and proud, slick from my orgasm—but I wasn’t wet with his. “You didn’t come.” I was too languid to help when he stripped me of my underwear. Sliding a hand beneath my back, he lifted me and whipped my shirt over my head. His”
