    “There is no good word for the opposite of lonesome.
    One might be tempted to suggest togetherness or contentment , but the fact that these two other words bear definitions unrelated to each other perfectly displays why lonesome cannot be properly mirrored. It does not mean solitude, nor alone, nor lonely, although lonesome can contain all of those words in itself.
    Lonesome means a state of being apart. Of being other. Alone-some.”
    Maggie Stiefvater, Blue Lily, Lily Blue

    I say, "I will not be your weakness, Sean Kendrick."
    Now he looks at me. He says, very softly, "It's late for that, Puck.”

    “That's a poor match, Sean Kendrick," says a voice at my elbow. It's the other sister from Fathom & Sons, and she follows my gaze to Puck. "Neither of you are a housewife."
    I don't look away from Puck. "I think you assume too much, Dory Maud."
    "You leave nothing to assumption," Dory Maud says. "You swallow her with your eyes. I'm surprised there's any of her left for the rest of us to see.”

    “In the middle of all this, as Sean slips out of his jacket, he looks over his shoulder at me and he smiles at me, just a glancing, faint thing before he turns back to Tommy. I'm quite happy for that smile, because Dad told me once you should be grateful for the gifts that are the rarest.”

    “Tell me what to wish for." Tell me what to ask the sea for."
    "To be happy. Happiness."
    "I don't think such a thing is had on Thisby. And if it is, I don't know how you would keep it."
    "You whisper to it. What it needs to hear. Isn't that what you said?"
    "That's what I said. What do I need to hear?"
    "That tomorrow we'll rule the Scorpio Races as king and queen of Skarmouth and I'll save the house and you'll have your stallion. Dove will eat golden oats for the rest of her days and you will terrorize the races each year and people will come from every island in the world to find out how it is you get horses to listen to you. The piebald will carry Mutt Malvern into the sea and Gabriel will decide to stay on the island. I will have a farm and you will bring me bread for dinner."
    "That's what I needed to hear.”
    Maggie Stiefvater, The Scorpio Races

    Cassandra Clare
    “When I found you, I didn’t know what I was finding,” Alec said. “Words about things that are beautiful and precious to me don’t come easily. You know that. You know me better than anyone.” He licked his dry lips. “And when one day people look back on me and what my life meant, I don’t want them to say, ‘Alec Lightwood fought in the Dark War’ or even ‘Alec Lightwood was Consul once.’ I want them to think, ‘Alec Lightwood loved one man so much he changed the world for him.’ ”
    Magnus’s eyes shone bright as stars. He gazed at Alec with eyes full of joy, of a feeling so profound Alec felt humbled to be a part of it. “You know you’ve already changed the world for me.”
    “Will you marry me?” Alec whispered. His heart was beating like a frantic bird’s wings. “Right now? Tonight?”
    Magnus nodded wordlessly and pulled Alec to his feet. They wrapped their arms around each other, and Alec leaned up just that little bit, since Magnus was just that little bit taller, which he had always loved.
    And they kissed for a long time.”
    Cassandra Clare, Queen of Air and Darkness

    Luchenko scowled. “Since when—”
    “Brave in battle, smart as a whip.” Now the voice seemed to be coming from above us. Luchenko craned his neck, peering into the trees. “An excellent dancer,” said the voice. “Oh, and an even better shot.”
    “Who—” Luchenko never got to finish. A blast rang out, and a tiny black hole appeared between his eyes.
    I gasped. “Imposs—”
    “Don’t say it,” muttered Mal.”
    Leigh Bardugo, Ruin and Rising
