“Do you have any coffee? (Talon)Ew! No, that stuff will kill you. I have herbal teas, though. (Sunshine)Herbal teas? That’s mulch, not a beverage. (Talon)”

“Do you own anything not pink? (Talon)I have a purple razor if you’d rather. (Sunshine)Please. (Talon)(She pulled out a darker pink one.)That’s not purple. It’s pink too. (Talon)Well, that’s all I have unless you want my X-Acto blade. (Sunshine)”

“Okay. That was nice. Clothes. You need clothes before I do something I might not regret. What was your size again, Steve? (Sunshine)Talon. (Talon)Talon. Size. Clothes. Cover him up. I’m going to go get Talon clothes. Keys. Need keys for car. Purse. Money for clothes. Shoes. Must have shoes to shop and keep feet warm. (Sunshine)What about a coat? It is wintertime. (Talon)Coats are good in the winter. (Sunshine)”

“(Talon pulled another beignet from the sack and held it up for her to eat.)That stuff is hazardous to your health. (Sunshine)Baby, life is hazardous to your health. (Talon)”

“Baby, I don’t feel pain. Ever. (Talon)Really? Not even a little? (Sunshine)It’s a waste of time and energy. It also drains the mind and makes it weary. (Talon)But without pain, you can’t have joy. It’s the balance that makes us appreciate the extreme. (Sunshine)”

“You know, Talon. Towels look really good on you. You go outside like that and you’ll start a whole new fashion craze. (Sunshine)Do you always say everything that comes to your mind? (Talon)Mostly. I do have some thoughts I keep to myself. I used to not care and would say anything at all, but then one time my college roommate called the psycho unit on me. You know, they really do have white coats. (Sunshine)”

“Damn, all I wanted was a drink of coffee and one little beignet. Coffee… Daimons… Coffee…Daimons. (Talon)I think in this case the Daimons better win. (Wulf)Yeah, but it’s chicory coffee. (Talon)Talon wanting to be toasted by Acheron for failure to protect humans. (Wulf)”
