“Hunky Heroes, rescuing distressed women, captive princesses, and girls without wheels since 1684. p. 450”
“What happened to the days of the hero rescuing the damsel in distress?" Not that I could envisage Heather as a damsel in distress."Those days are long gone, Brendan. Nowadays, the damsel takes care of herself, and on occasion she might even rescue the hero, if she feels he deserves it.""I'm screwed, then.”
“Little girls fear being a princess that was never rescued but little boys fear being a prince that was too late.”
“Since when do princesses go on quests? They are the ones who remain safely locked away in towers playing the role of damsel-in-distress!”
“Isn't that what a gentleman does? Rescues a damsel in distress?”
“I'm an outlaw, not a hero. I never intended to rescue you. We're our own dragons as well as heroes, and we have to rescue ourselves from ourselves.”
