“What’s so funny? (Astrid)I’m just thinking, here I am a slave who touched a star who then made him a demigod. I have to be the luckiest bastard who ever lived. (Zarek)”

“You are an arrogant bastard. (Thanatos)No, not an arrogant bastard. I’m nothing but a piece of shit who touched a star. Now I’m the son of a bitch who’s going to put you out of your misery. (Zarek)”

“Here. (Zarek)What is it? (Astrid)Arsenic and vomit. (Zarek)Really? And yet you managed to hack that up so quietly. Who knew? Thanks. I’ve never had vomit before. I’m sure it’s extra special. (Astrid)”

“You don’t like people who have money, do you? (Astrid)I’m not prejudiced against anyone, princess. I hate everyone equally. (Zarek)”

“Come away with me, Astrid. (Zarek)Why should I? (Astrid)Because I love you, and even if I’m lying on the sun itself I’ll be freezing there without you. I need my star so that I can hear laughter. (Zarek)”

“What are you? (Zarek)I’m a nymph. (Astrid)I hope you just left an important syllable off that word, princess. (Zarek)”

“Would like to join me? (Astrid)I think I’d look strange in a bikini. (Zarek)Was that a joke? Can it be you made a real joke? (Astrid)Yeah, I must be possessed or something. (Zarek)”
