“Gods, how I’ve missed you. (Stryker)I hate you with every beat of my heart. (Zephyra)”

“Swear it on your life. (Zephyra)That I can never do. (Stryker)Why can’t you? (Zephyra)Because you are my life, and I can’t live another day without you. (Stryker)”

“She’s my wife. (Stryker)Was. You seem to have forgotten an important verb tense. (Zephyra)”

“You bit me? (Stryker)We use what we have. (Zephyra)That’s such a girl move. (Stryker)But it works. Maybe if you fought like a girl and not a stunted baboon, you’d actually win. (Zephyra)”

“A woman after my own heart. (Stryker)You’re absolutely right about that. Nothing would please me more than ripping that organ out of you and feasting on it. (Zephyra)”

“I have my work cut out for me where you’re concerned, don’t I? (Stryker)Not really. Hate you today. Will hate you tomorrow. What say we don’t waste any time? Give me the sword and let me have your throat now. (Zephyra)”
