3/5 AU’s. { The Virgin Suicides }

everyone dated the demise of our neighborhood by the suicides of the lisbon girls. people saw their clairvoyance in the wiped-out elms and harsh sunlight and the fall of our auto industry. 

 Cecilia, the youngest, was thirteen,

Cecilia was the first to go.

 And Lux, fourteen.

You’re a stone fox. 

 Bonnie was fifteen.

Well, it was kinda sad when he died. (…) Oh, I’m so sorry!

 Mary was sixteen,

Mary always wanted to be a cheerleader, but her mom wouldn’t let her. 

 And Therese was seventeen.

Another reporter ended his broadcast by reading a letter Therese had written to the Browns admissions office— “ironically,” as he put it, “only three days before she put an end to any dreams of college… or of anything else.”

Two a.m. and she calls me 
‘cause I’m still awake.
“Can you help me unravel my latest mistake?
I don’t love him;
Winter just wasn’t my season.”

Anonymous wondered,
Why aren't you and Chip dating yet?

Whenever I think of him, I get this sick feeling in my stomach.

—Rosalie Selfridge, “Mr. Selfridge”
It didn’t matter in the end how old they had been, or that they were girls, but only that we had loved them, and that they hadn’t heard us calling, still do not hear us, up here in the tree house with our thinning hair and soft bellies, calling them out of those rooms where they went to be alone for all time, alone in suicide, which is deeper than death, and where we will never find the pieces to put them back together.

—The Virgin Suicides by Jeffrey Eugenides

Science is in everything, eh?

As if you think the army would actually accept me. I’m skinny as a pencil, I have the reflexes of, like, an elephant, and am possibly the most pathetic teenage boy currently living.

It would be a suicide mission anyway.

…Nah, I mean, they accept dickwads. And yeah, it would be, wouldn’t it. 

God, I hate life.

No, don’t say that.

But I do, and somebody should know. 

I love you, Tink. 

Hullo.

I know how you feel.

I wanna die.

I just wanna die.

Science is in everything, eh?

chippotts-willingham:

Thank you, my fair queen. Your forgiveness is taken deeply to heart. And for that, my lady fair, I promise not to leave your side once more unless you so demand it be.

Your kind words are appreciated beyond compare.

Good, because if you joined the army? 

I’d kill you.
