[rainbowfic] Halloween Orange

Halloween Orange: Theme: Music (Seanan McGuire)
1. It's just 'til my evil plan comes into flower.
2. I'm all alone, and I think someone left me.
3. Nothing in my pocket but a hand and a prayer.
4. Blood burns like fire, and it always burns through.
5. An island's not a prison -- that's what men make bridges for.
6. By the time you see the patterns, it's a hundred times too late.
7. In mercy's shadow, nothing grows.
8. Our roads may be golden, or broken, or lost, but we'll walk on them willingly, knowing the cost
9. When there's no redemption to be found, there are still a few who'll hold their ground.
10. You can't unmake your own mistakes.
11. The past is a road where the bus doesn't run, and there's no station called "Yesterday."
12. Some little things get broken, and a little means a lot.
13. Guard your eggshell heart, for the moon tells lies.
14. Do you follow it because it's true, or just because you must?
15. A moment and my simple, careless plans were all unmade.
16. There’s no way to run or hide when the thing you fear’s inside.
17. I think you'll find the line is fine between the saint and sinner.
18. All I long for is to roam -- must this be my only home?
19. I am nothing you should trust.
20. Don't think I've ever been betrayed, for that was never true.
21. While he just might tell you stories, he won't ever tell you lies.
22. Don't be chosen; make the choice to choose.
23. There are laws we must obey, certain ways this story goes.
24. I can’t promise to obey you, I can’t swear I won’t betray you.
25. No one gets to tell me if I've lost or if I've won.
26. Though I’m somewhere off the beaten track, that’s no guarantee that I won’t come back.
27. I was a little more than they expected.
28. It’s a shot of ‘dumb idea’ with a ‘bad plan’ chaser.
29. I find relationships so often are an awful bore.
30. Be wicked and lovely and don't live in fear.
