Baby, I Ain't Trash. Trash Is Something You Throw Away. My People Keep Me.

Yeah, I Wish I Could Have Stayed Awake Long Enough To See Your Face When I Changed Over. (wren) No, You Don’t. I Assure You, It Wasn’t Pretty. (maggie) There’s Never Anything About You That Isn’t Pretty, Maggie. You’re The Most Beautiful Woman I’ve Ever Seen. (wren)

Jealousy Can’t Sour Someone To This Extreme, Can It? (aiden) It Can And It Does. Believe Me. I’ve Seen A Lot Worse Than This In My Billion Or So Years Of Existence – The First Murder Man Committed Was One Brother Against The Other For No Other Reason Than That One Petty Emotion. Jealousy Turns To Hatred Which Then Turns To Poison. It Infects And It Destroys Until It Eats Someone Alive. (deimos)

Weird. I Rang It Three Times.” – Nekoda “there Might Be Something With Out Condo.” ‘other Than The Fact That It Lived Under A Perpetual Dismal Cloud And Was Infested With Roaches The Size Of His Fist.

I Am The Earl Of Ravensmoor. And You Are? (sparhawk) Totally Freaking Out. (taryn) Tis A Most Peculiar Name, Milady. Are You By Chance Welsh? (sparhawk)

A Word Of Wisdom To You, Akribos, You Need To Learn To Accept Gifts. (catera) There’s No Such Thing As A Gift. If I Were To Take That From You, Sooner Or Later You Would Ask A Favor From Me In Return. Nothing In Life Is Ever Truly Given Without Expectation. (acheron)

Words Of Wisdom

Death Is Just A New Beginning…at Least In My Religion. And Extreme Inebriation Seriously Helps. (syn)

Turn Yourself Over To Aksel, And I Might Let Her Go. (arast) Yeah, Right. And I’m A One-legged Dung Dealer. (nykyrian)

Step Aside, Boys. I Have The Evil Powers For This.” – Abigail “my Lady Got Mad Skills.” – Sundown

This Isn’t A Game, Human. Listen To The Skotos And Go. We’re Not Bound By The Laws Of The Oneroi. Killing Humans Is Nothing For Us. (dolophoni) Well, Aren’t You All Scary In Black. Ooo. What Are You Two Masquerading As? Evil Man And His Trusty Sidekick Bad Boy? (geary)

No, Simi. No Food. (astrid) ‘no, Simi. No Food.’ You Sound Like Akri. ‘don’t Eat That, Simi, You’ll Cause An Ecological Disaster.’ What Is An Ecological Disaster, That’s What I Want To Know? Akri Says It’s Me On Hunger Binge, But I Don’t Think That’s Quite Right, But That’s All He’ll Say About It. (simi)

You Might Wanna Rethink That, Boy. 'cause If I'm Going To Get Sued For Offensively Touching You, I'm Going To Make It Worth My While.

Even If I Were Lying On The Sun Itself, I Would Be Freezing There Without You. (zarek)

The Family Consists Of Those Who Live Under The Same Roof With The Pater Familias ; Those Who Form (if I May Use The Expression) His Fire-side.

I’m Going To Go Out There And Wait Until You Two Are Dressed. (tiernan) Why Don’t You Keep Walking Until You Get To The Other Side Of The Front Door? (adron)

Well, Yeah. You Said You Wanted Italian. See. Chef Boyardee. He Makes One The Best Stuff. (tabitha)

I Tend To Watch Silently From The Shadows. You Learn A Lot More That Way.

So Are We Going To Continue Glaring Angrily At Each Other While We Pose In Our Tough Stances? Or Use Our Time To Work Out A Plan That Hopefully Doesn’t End With Our Mutual Deaths? (acheron)

His Mom Always Said That Trust Was Something You Earned. And It Wasn't Something You Gave Easy. Too Often, It Was A Tool Your Enemies Used To Hurt You With. 'give Them Nothing, Baby. Not Until You Have No Choice. The World Is Harsh And It Is Cold. People Can Be Good And Decent, But Most Of Them Are Only Out For Themselves And They'll Hurt Anyone They Can'.

I Never Lied To You. (kiara) Of Course You Did –you Said You Could See The Real Us– That We Weren’t As Bad As We Claimed. But You Didn’t And, Just Like Everyone Else, So Long As We Risk Our Lives To Protect And Save You, We’re Okay. But The Moment We Have To Make A Choice Not Ours, The Moment You See What Our Pasts Have Made Us, You’re Horrified By The Truth And Hate Us For It Like We Had Some Kind Of Choice In What We Are. (syn)

Chris Would Disagree With You. (wulf) I Think Chris Would Disagree With A Signpost. (cassandra)

Yeah. Kip Gets To Guard You And I Get To House-sit. Life Bites The Big Tee-tawa. (syn)

Guess We're Going North," Dev Said Slowly. "everyone, Follow Lassie.timmy's In The Well.

We’re Looking For Anything To Do With The Rod Of Time. (sin) Rod Of Time, Forsaken Moon, Tablet Of Destiny…you Sumerians Really Liked Your Hokey Terms, Huh? (kat) They Didn’t Exactly Ask My Opinion Before They Named Them. (sin) Good, ‘cause My Estimation Of Your Intellect Would Be Seriously Scarred If They Had. (kat)

The Only Thing That Was Sharper And That Scarred More Was The Selfish Actions Of Those You Loved When They Made It Crystal Clear That They Cared More For Themselves Than They Did For You. Especially When It Was Someone You Trusted To Always Put You First.

Why Is It When I’m The One Shot, I’m A Baby, But When It’s You, It’s A Matter Of Life And Death And National Security? (joe) Because I’m Cuter In A Short Skirt. (tee)

(as She Entered The Main Room, Syn Turned Around In His Chair And Almost Fell Out Of It As He Scanned Her Body. He Cleared His Throat And Cut An Appreciative Look To Nykyrian.) Dayum…woman Be Hot. (syn)

I Would Kiss You Anyway, But I Have A Feeling That If I Tried– (rafael) I’d Kick You In The Nuts And Tear Your Ear Off. (celena) That Would Hurt. (rafael) That’s The Idea. (celena)

C'mon, Tabitha. You Stabbed Me The Night We Met Without Even Blinking. (valerius) Yeah, But You Were A Dirtbag Then. (tabitha) I Think I'm Offended. (valerius)

So What Brings You Here? (devyn) People Needed Killing. (adron)

I Want The Tigard. (varyk) And I Want You To Leave. Guess Who’s Going To Win This Argument? And In Case You’re Even Denser Than You Appear, It’s Not You. (dev)

Do You Know What Happened To The Last Person Who Took That Tone With Me? (xypher) Let Me Guess…disembowelment. Probably Painful. Definitely Slow. (simone)

A Little Bloodthirsty, Isn’t It? (kim) Given What They Did To Tory, I’m Thinking A Quick Death Is Merciful. Not To Mention They Ruined One Of My Favorite Jackets And Totaled My Bike. (acheron) Well, Let’s Just Torture Then Bomb The Bastards. How Dare They! (pam)

(zarek Attacks Valerius.) Cease! I Know It’s Been A Long Time Since You Were Around Another Dark-hunter, Z, But Remember, Whatever You Do To Him, You Will Feel It Tenfold. (acheron) Pain I Can Take, It’s Him I Can’t. (zarek)

I'm Beginning To Think The Only Choice Anyone Has In Life Is Between Either A Bad Choice Or A Worse One.

Great Minds Discuss Ideas. Average Minds Discuss Events. Small Minds Discuss Other People. Life's Too Short To Worry About What Other People Do Or Don't Do. Tend Your Own Backyard, Not Theirs, Because Yours Is The One You Have To Live In.

You Have To Remember That What We’re Dealing With Here Are Sumerian Gallu Demons. The Next To The Lowest Form Of Demon On The Demon Food Chain. They’re Simple Demons Really. Lowly. You Know…morons. (jaden)

Be Glad You Have A Mother Who Loves You." He Was Glad Of That. A Lot, Since She Was Basically The Only Person On Earth Who Did. But Now That He Was A Full Head Taller Than Her, It Was Weird When She Tried To Cuddle Him Like He Was A Baby. He Could Be Almost Seven Feet Tall Like Acheron, And She'd Probably Still Try To Pull Him Into Her Lap.

On Second Thought She Hoped She Never Met A Woman That Attractive.. If She Did, She Would Be Morally Obligated To Run Her Over With Her Car.." Bride

Yeah, Well, I Guess I Feel Like All Of Us Misfits Need To Hang Together. At Least That Way We Don't Swing Along. (tabitha)

If You’re Trying To Seduce Me, Vane, You’re A Bit Late. At His Point I’m Pretty Much A Sure Thing For You.

You Know, You Say ‘not Exactly’ A Lot. You’re Not Exactly A Vampire. You’re Not Exactly From Scotland, And You’re Allergic To Daylight. What Else? (sunshine) I Hate Bran Muffins And Grass. (talon)

Please Tell Me The Cave Just Had A Little Indigestion. (kat)

Oh, This I Have To See. I Love It When You Go For The Vernacular. Jugular.

Yes, And For The Record, He Thinks You’re Insane, Too. (otto) Oh, Goodie. But I Guess That’s Only Fair Since I Think He’s Psychotic. (susan)

I Love You, Don’t I? And The Gods Know You Are Definitely Not Easy To Deal With. (aimee) Thanks, Aim. By The Way I Still Have A Tiny Bit Of Confidence Left. Please Make Sure You Stomp On It Too While You’re At It. Gods Forbid It Should Actually Grow Into Something Called Self-esteem. (fang)

I Think It's Great That They Can Come In And Suck Us Dry. Remind Me To Leave My Window Unlatched Tonight. Day. Night. Whatever. Cone Steal My Soul, You Worthless Bastards. I'm Open Like A Twenty-four-hour Blood Diner Donor." (dev)

So Why Did You Get Shot? One Of Your Witticisms Go Awry? (nekoda)

I Just Don’t See How Anyone Can Be So Cold. (kiara) And You Should Be Grateful, Little Girl, To Whatever God You Worship, That You Can Say That. In The World We Come From, I Don’t Understand How Anyone Can Be Anything But Cold. (syn)

How Much Longer Will I Live? (urian) You’re Immortal, Barring Death. (acheron) That Doesn’t Make Sense. (urian) Most Of Life Doesn’t. (acheron)

But If Fate Won’t Be Denied...if It’s Set, How Could There Be Infinite Possibilities? (kat) Only Certain Aspects Are Fated. The Outcome Isn’t. It Was Fated That Sin Would Loose His Godhood. The Means And What Followed Were Determined By Free Will. Free Will Is That One Scary Variable That Sets So Much Into Motion That No One, Not Even I, Have Control Over. (acheron)

I Just Love To Put A Hurt On Evil Things. (katra)

I Prefer To Work Alone – Except In The Bedroom. (steele)

Because I Don’t Feel Broken When You Look At Me.

I'm Too Young, Too Smart And Too Good-looking To Die.

Things Are Always Given To Us When We Need Them... You Just Have To Decide If You're Strong Enough, Brave Enough, To Seize It And Make It Yours. (acheron)
