“He couldn't remember where he was. The thought made him smile”
“Have you read Belondweg?""I coudn't call myself much of a scholar if I hadn't," he said.He was adorable and he made me smile, but I couldn't let him see.”
“My heart raced. He needs you, I thought. Don't let him down. I couldn't remember ever being so happy... or so scared.”
“Thoughts of the girl crashed around his mind, made him remember the connection he felt. A sadness washed over him, as if he missed her, wanted to see her. That doesn't make sense, he thought. I don't even know her name.”
“The only thing that ever scared him was finding out there was something he couldn't do, so he damn well made sure there was anything he couldn't.”
“He smiled at her: he simply couldn't help himself. He was so glad she'd wandered into his house to kill him.”
