“Get the hell away from my boyfriend, witch."Boyfriend.Was that what I was?I tried to smile. Instead, I blacked out.”

“Funny thing is, until I met you all I wanted to do was to get as far away from here as I could. Kind of ironic, isn't it? Can't get much farther away than where I"m going, and now I'd give anything to stay.”

“You can read minds, and you didn't tell me?” Link stared at me like he just found out I was the Silver Surfer. He rubbed his head nervously. “Hey, man, all that stuff about Lena?

“The library was home away from home to my mom, and my family. We had spent every Sunday afternoon there since I was a little boy, wandering around the stacks, pulling out every book with a picture of a pirate ship, a knight, a soldier, or an astronaut.

Liv was shaking her head, checking the rotating dials on her wrist.Link pushed away his plate, still covered with food. "So let me get this straight. We're gonna go down into theTunnels and find this moon outta time with Liv's fancy watch?""Selenometer." Liv didn't look up from copying numbers from the dials into her red notebook.”

“I knew what they were doing - or more like not doing. Leaving. I shook my head. "You guys are idiots."Link grinned. "I'd have gone with 'brave as hell,' myself.”
