Give me the saddest quote from your comic/novel

[TheDoublekey]

Damn, I do understand that feeling. That part in Berserk is one of the most gut-wrenching (no pun intended) and sad moments I've read in manga.

When it comes to my comic, I'd say there's at least two quotes from the same chapter which are pretty sad.

The first one would have to be:

"You can't leave me alone, I can't go on like this! You at least, please... open your eyes."

And the second one:

"Don't worry, now I'm here by your side. We must help each other out, from now on. I'll always be there whenever you'll fall, ready to reach out to you... just like when we were kids. No one else can help us, except for ourselves, for now we are all alone before this unjust world."

"Dawn made herself smile" from this part of my one shot Dino Orphan. This whole sequence was hard to draw and write, it tore me up just a little.

[Scarlet_Cryptid]

Okay, this is more of a whole scene than a quote, but.... This. Scene. This was heartbreaking to write, draw, and sit on until posting.

The good news is, eventually she goes on to get bloody vengeance? But this scene was just plain awful.

"Alas for he. All he wished was that his mother should love him."
Spoken by Lord Nix after he kills Viktor, the Saucepan Man and neglected son of Varya-Aphrodisias, the goddess of love.

Not gonna lie but that guy kinda look like levi but in the good way

HES HOT

Berserk is awesome, it's a series that inspired me for this series too.

I'm still on the early chapters -don't have a true quote but there's some sad lines-
The heroes (two brothers) are carriers of a virus that instantly mutates others into hideous monsters. The brothers unwillingly cause an outbreak. Two officers come to their aid and you can guess what happened

I had put myself in a sad mood when writing this section -
the line that hits me the most given the situation is "what if you died too?"
(green text is little brother & white is big brother)

[ivanskilling]

Oho you noticed that! His face claim is based off Levi, so the comparison is accurate.

I'll pick one from the first chunk of the comic, Autumn.
It's really close to the end, so it won't appear in the actual pages for a good while. But man, it hurt me (positively) to write.

"I don't want you to ever forget me. I don't think you can. I know that I can't forget you."

Another one around the same time in the comic is this:

"I don't know if I want you to stay or go. I would go insane if you left. I'd feel guilty if you stayed."

Different vibes. But painful all the same.

Nothings sadder than watching a fairytale kingdom fall to 1984 dystopian politics.

"Brushstrokes swirled in a monochromatic mist, their whirling’s marked by the static buzz she’d heard. At the bottom of the frame a plague was pinned. It read, “Product of Smith & Tinker. By law must be displayed in town center. Placement must be approved by an Emerald City official. Unauthorized removal will result in incarceration and fines.”

Gone was the false sweetness of the propaganda, this magic painting couldn’t be misinterpreted. Clearly the villagers hadn’t listened to the warning or didn’t fear the repercussions. Dorothy remembered her first interaction with Ojo and how being associated with the Wizard wasn’t a good thing. Perhaps the citizens of Muin Kin county were resisting the Wizard’s authority or engaged in an ideological conflict.

Or were preparing for something bloodier."

Comic-writers-who-haven't-gotten-to-the-sad-part-yet, unite! :'D

Mine is supposed to be more sad in a disturbing kind of way:

"It's okay. People have done worse to me on trains. I just wasn’t prepared that time."

'…'
'I-Isn’t that bad?'

"Better me than someone else."

'Um, I don’t think … I mean, you matter too ...'

"It makes me feel useful."

[EverydayWonderlander]

The last line D:
OOF. (good job)

From Ember the Dragon Tales:
“Gone. He’s gone. He was in pain and he wanted me to help him. So…I released him from his body. June… I killed him.”
“Ember… that’s not the same. You know that, don’t you?”
“I tell myself so. But still, he’s gone and I made it happen. June… I’d killed humans before but they were my foes. They fought me. It was necessary. But he was my friend. My first human friend. I killed my friend.”

“Pirates attacked the ship. They took the cargo the crew was transporting from the East. The Ivory Lilly was not much of a vessel. Bastards sank it as they left.” The man’s hands trembled as he handed the father the sealed parchment. His lips quivered in fear as the following words stuttered to escape. “They left no survivors.”

"You're my best friend- my only friend. I would be devastated if something happened to you."

The fact that Tilda's only friend is Valerie makes me a little sad

[djourner]

...his voice was low and distant. “Azreth… You… Don’t have to do this.”

I was completely taken aback and confused by his sudden words. “Do what?”

He still wouldn’t look at me, but did contract a bit in his spot… I could tell he was uncomfortable. “Pity me.”

I shook my head appalled. “I’m not pitying you Vernon!”

“It’s what everyone else does…” He said in a cold tone, like he was trying to wound me, I could feel his intent. I could tell that came from a dark place in him, his voice trembled. “They just, look at me, and they think… ‘Poor redmane, sad and alone’… ‘Maybe I can make him better?’, ‘Maybe he will be fine if I do this or that’.”
“I’m fine! you don’t have to be here just so I don’t feel alone… If you want to, you can just leave while I sleep and then… Then everything will be fine, you will be miles away and I’m gonna be just fine.” 
“I was a mess for a long time before you arrived, and I’ll continue to be a mess whether you’re here or not… I… It’s best if you just go Azreth, nothing good is going to come for you for staying with me… People are gonna hate you, despise you, treat you like they treat me.”
“And not just that, I’m not worth that much! I’m a sickly guy with just a bunch of problems and no solutions or anywhere to go. I don’t have anything, I will never be successful, or rich, people are not going to just like me, and I am not some sort of hero… I’ll be happy if can make it past thirty without any permanent disabilities! And I’m pretty sure I’m going to die before then…”
“There is just no future with me Azreth… Just this VOID of wasted opportunities, and time… You’re better off without me, you’re so amazing and perfect…. Please… Don’t waste your time on me.”
