“Experiment or not, the government is always watching. - Felix”
“The obligation d'âme meant that his only allegiance was to Felix, making them a separate kingdom of two, with Felix as king and Mildmay as ministers, army, and populace all combined in one. A stormy little kingdom, I thought, with periodic flare-ups of civil war and a magnificently unstable government. And I was glad I wasn’t a citizen of it.”
“But Felix was no longer Felix. He was a vampire motherfucker.”
“Felix,” he whispered. “Oh, little man. Oh, Felix. That fire… the fire isbeautiful.”
“I’m on a government watch list. But I’m not interested, because government watches only work twenty minutes out of every hour.”
“My father always said that government is like watching another man piss in your boot. Someone feels better but it certainly isn't you.”
