“You could have said ‘Excuse me.’ (Zarek)I’m not talking to you. (Astrid)Love you, too, babe. (Zarek)You really are an animal, aren’t you? (Astrid)Woof, woof. (Zarek)”
“What are you? (Zarek)I’m a nymph. (Astrid)I hope you just left an important syllable off that word, princess. (Zarek)”
“Tell me of a happy memory, Zarek. One thing in your life that was good. (Astrid)You. (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)”
“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)”
“Zarek? (Astrid)What?! (Zarek)Don’t use that tone with me. I like to know where people are in my house. Be nice, or I’ll make you wear a cowbell. (Astrid)”
