But At Other Times, The Voice Is Love And Compassion, And It Guides Us To A Gentler Place. In The End, We, Alone, Must Choose What Path To Walk. No One Can Help Us With It. (menyara)

You Rang, Mino- Well, You’re Not Really The Minor Master Anymore, Are You? What Should I Call You? (asmodeus) Think Of A Polite Term, Demon. (jericho) Mister Master It Is. What Can I Do For You? (asmodeus)

I’m Too Young, Too Smart, And Too Good-looking To Die. Yeah, And Then Some. The World Needed Him To Improve The Gene Pool. Not To Mention, At Fourteen He Hadn’t Even Had His First Date Yet. He’d Only Just, This Night, Had His First Kiss. He Should Have Recognized That Alone As A Sign That The Apocalypse Was Coming And That His Death Was Imminent.’ – Nick

You Dare To Stand With My Enemy? (stryker) Against You, Father, I’d Stand With Mickey Mouse. (urian)

She Went From Angry To Calm So Fast That He Wondered If She Wasn’t The Ferrari Of Moms. Her Top Speed Had To Be .65 Nanoseconds.’ (nick)

Yeah, Well, He’s Still On Dark-hunter Payroll, So Tell Him To Keep His Phone Turned On. (talon) Ooo. Getting Testy In Your Fierce Nakedness. (kyrian)

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.

Ah, Those Were The Days…the Dark-hunters Hunted Us, We Slaughtered Them. We Made Our Homes In Underground Catacombs And Crypts Where The Hunters Couldn’t Go Without Getting Possessed. It Was An Interesting Time To Be Apollite Or Daimon. But That Was Before We Discovered Civilization And Modern Conveniences. Before The Human World Developed Enough To Where We Could Exist At Night Under The Pretense Of Being One Of Them. Apollites Owning Businesses And Houses. Daimons Playing Nintendo. What Is This World Coming To? (thanatos)

I’m Enchanted By Your Beauty, My Lady. Welcome Aboard. You Make A Most Welcome Addition To Our Acerbic Company…a Lovely-smelling One, Too. (vik)

Fine, But I’m Not Ripping The Head Off A Voodoo Chicken Or Drinking Anything Disgusting. (grace)

Do That Again And, Bracelet Or No Bracelet, I’ll Tear Your Head Off And Use It For A Doorstop. (xypher)

Disease. Filth. Waste. Crime. Brutality. What’s There To Like? (solin) There’s Brutality On Olympus. (arik) True. But I Hate Humanity As Much As I Hate The Gods. Both Groups Are Selfish Bastards Bent On Destroying Everything Around Them. They Were Given A Perfect World And Rather Than Enjoy It, They’d Rather Destroy It And Each Other. Excuse Me If I Don’t Look At Them With Love In My Eyes But Rather Scorn In My Heart. (solin)

But Then, His Revenge Had Been More Direct. He’d Hunted Down The Ones Who’d Killed His Sister And Nephew – Those Who’d Survived His Mother’s Attack – And He’d Made Them Wish They’d Never Been Born With Nerve Endings.' (acheron)

Save Me, Shahara. Save Me From The Lonely Nights That Never End. (syn)

You Better, Artemis. Because If You Don’t Get Him Under Control, The World Is Going To Become The Very Thing That Makes You Wake Up Screaming At Night. (acheron)

It's Not Your Fault. You Had No Way Of Knowing I'd Traded My Soul. It's Not Exactly How I Start Out Conversations. Hi, I'm Kyrian. I Have No Soul. What About You? (kyrian)

I’m Going To Be Exposed, Aren’t I? (acheron) I Don’t Know. You Planning On Dropping Your Pants Around Me? If So, Warn Me First. I Don’t Want To Go Blind. (savitar)

It’s Been A Whole Day Since I Last Killed Someone, And I’m Getting Antsy. (maxis)

Excuse Me, But I’ve Been To Some Of The Toughest Zones In The Galaxy To Get My Targets. And I Have Never Once Gone After A Target And Failed. Ever. (shahara) Yeah, But You’ve Never Been Chased Before. It’s A Lot Harder To Be The Prey Than It Is To Be The Predator. (syn)

Hey, Aren’t We Forgetting Something? (savitar) Your Dignity? (takeshi) No, You Have Me Confused With You Again. Aren’t You Supposed To Be Training Him? (savitar) So You Admit My Superiority By Deflecting My Attention To The Neophyte. (takeshi)

Swear It On Your Life. (zephyra) That I Can Never Do. (stryker) Why Can’t You? (zephyra) Because You Are My Life, And I Can’t Live Another Day Without You. (stryker)

As A Child, He Had Hardened His Heart And Learned To Take Their Punches. He Had Learned To Spit Back And Take Down Anyone Who Cast A Jaundiced Eye Or Who Made A Comment About Either Him, His Mother, Or His Sister. He’d Told Himself That He Didn’t Need Anyone’s Love Or Caring. And So He Had Learned To Live Like A Feral Animal, Always Ready To Strike Out When Someone Tried To Touch Him.

Why Do All Men Have To Suck? I Knew You All Sucked And Still I Stupidly Fell In Love With One Of You. Why? Why Would I Be Such A Masochist? You Pour Your Heart Out To A Man And What Does He Do? ‘could You Change The Channel, Babe?’ You’re All Pathetically Cold. You Don’t Care About Anyone But Yourselves! (kat)

Don't Let Those People Steal Your Day

The Simi Gots Some Barbecue Sauce In Her Bag. It Kind Of Looks Like Blood If You Squint At It The Right Way. And It Don’t Coagulate Between Your Teeth Like Blood Or Give You Them Funky Burps, Not To Mention It Tastes A Lot Better Too. Especially Over That Type A Stuff. Bleh! I’d Rather Eat My Shoes. But That O-flavored Blood…yum! (she Straightened And Held One Finger Up In A Gesture That Strangely Reminded Him Of Smokey The Bear.) And Just Remember, Kids, Three Out Of Four Demons All Prefer Barbecue Sauce Over Hemoglobin. (simi)

You Like Being Vague, Don't You? (amanda) It Was A Choice Of Being A Dark-hunter Or A Prophet. Personally I Like The Slash-and-kill Stuff Much More Than Prayers And The Lotus Position. (acheron)

So Is There Any Part Of You That’s Not A Lethal Weapon? (kiara) No. Even My Wits Are Sharpened. (nykyrian)

Dammit, Vik. How Can You Not Know What’s Wrong With This Thing? Can’t You Commune With It Or Something? (devyn) My Name Is Not ‘dammit, Vik’ And I Find It Ironic That You Think I Can Commune With All Metal Beings When You Can Barely Communicate Your Point Of View To Your Own Parents. And They Birthed You. I Did Not Give Birth To This Ship. Last Time I Checked, I Was Male And That Would Be Impossible On A Multitude Of Levels. (vik)

I’m Partial To The Truth, Lo. Good, Bad Or Indifferent. (vane)

Are You Calling Me Out? (varyk) I’m Calling You Slow. Not Out. (dev)

Lady, Right Now You Could Tell Me To Throw Myself Under A Bus To Make You Happy, And I’d Oblige You. (xypher)

And Not A Single Mark On The Lamborghini. Ha! Eat Steel, You Soul-sucking Bastards! (kyrian)

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

Don’t Be Jealous, Baby. We’ll Get To You In A Jiffy. (daimon) Jiffy? What Kind Of Pathetic Wuss Uses The Word ‘jiffy’? (xypher)

No Can Do. Wren Stays Here. (dev) Not What I Was Told. (varyk) Well, I Just Told You. (dev)

You Both Sicken Me. (markus) It’s What I Live For…father. Your Eternal Disgust Succors Me Like Mother’s Milk. (fang)

No. He’s The Personification Of Human Fear. (leta) Oh, Goody. Just What I Wanted To Add To My Dream. Should We Invite Him Over For Tea? (aiden)

We Need To Gather Everyone We Can. Damien Scoffed. Uh, Boss, Hate To Be A Pall, But I Think Everyone We Can Gather Is Currently In This Room. Sin Paused To Look At Simi, Xirena, Damien, Kat, Kish, And Xypher. It Was A Pitiful Number Of Defenders. But It Was All The World Had. In That Case, We Need To Seriously Arm Ourselves. Damien Crossed Himself. Hail Mary, Full Of Grace- What Are You Doing? Kish Asked. You're Not Catholic. Yeah But I'm Feeling Really Religious All Of A Sudden And It Seemed Like A Good Idea.

It’s Been A Full Week Since She Left And All You’ve Done Is Sulk Like A Dying Cow. (kish)

I Take Time With Each Person And Try To Remember Them, Especially If They're A Repeater From Another Event. I Know A Lot Of Authors Just Sign A Book And Keep Their Heads Down, But I'm Not Like That.

Never Underestimate A Backwoods Cajun In A Fight, Old Man.

So, Magellan, Where Are We Going? (danger) Away. I’m Open To Any Location, So Long As It Doesn’t Involve Returning To Your House While Wart-head Is There.

Why Did You Hit Him? (grace) Because It Gave Me A Great Deal Of Pleasure. (julian) Nice. You Haven’t Seen Me In What, Two Thousand Years? So, Instead Of A Friendly, Brotherly Hug, I Get Slugged. (eros)

Got To Say, Dying Would Really Wreck My Best Day. Been There, Done That, And Now That I Think About It, Artemis Forgot To Give Me The T-shirt.

Oh, Yeah, Insanity Ran Deep In The Roots Of That Family Tree.’ (talon)

When I Was A Little Girl, I Used To Try And Bring Sunshine To My Mother. I Felt So Bad That She Had Never Really Seen Or Felt It. So I Would Try And Catch It In Jars. When That Failed, I Captured Jars And Jars Of Lightening Bugs And Told Her That If We Could Catch Enough Of Them, Then It Would Look Like The Sun. She’d Laugh, Hug Me, And Then Set Them Free And Tell Me That Nothing Should Have To Live Its Life In A Cage. (cassandra)

I Wish I Knew If They Were Real Or Imagined. (vik) And That Makes You Completely Human, Sweetie. We All Have Those Doubts. (alix)

I Can't. At Least Not For A While. I Need Time To Get Past This And I Can't Guarantee That I Won't Hurt Him Again. God Knows, Nick Has A True Gift For Saying The Wrong Thing In Any Given Situation. (acheron) You Know He Loves You, Right? (amanda) Yeah, But Emotions Don't Have Brains. (acheron)

Fine. Sit Around Being Inconsiderate Asses…and You Wonder Why None Of You Are Married. (zarina) (sway Cleared His Throat Meaningfully.) Oh, Shush. You Don’t Count. You Had An Arranged Marriage. These Losers Can’t Get A Girl For More Than Three And Half Minutes It Takes Them To Embarrass Themselves With Their Feeble Gropings That Always Disappoint. (zarina)

Life Isn’t Supposed To Be Easy. Ever. But With The Hardest Challenges Go The Greatest Rewards. And Every Incredible Moment Of My Life Came Only After I Did Something That Made My Gut Clench With Fear. - Caleb

Life Is All About Finding Your Place. All Of Us Are Vulnerable, And At Times We All Feel Adrift. But Somehow, We All Muddle Through. He'll Be Fine. Like The Rest Of Us. We Just Need Some Faith.

Are We Even Now? Or Do You Want To Rape My Body As Much As You’ve Raped My Soul? (acheron)

Why Do You Tolerate It? (kat) The Same Reason Sin Hasn’t Resigned Himself To Death. There Are Six Billion People On Earth Who Need Someone To Protect Them From Things That Are Scarier Than The Tax Man Or A Knife-wielding Stranger. Things That A Gun Won’t Stop. As Long As Their Lives Hang In The Balance, What’s A Little Humiliation For Me? (acheron)
