Maybe he thinks he can rescue me? No one is that stupid.
Most of the upper management of I.S. were undead. I always thought it was because the job was easier if you didn’t have a soul.
Join us next time for Days of the Undead when Rachel learns her long lost brother is really a crown prince from outer space.
God, if you ever loved me, open my eyes for me when I’m being this stupid! (Ron)
And then there are the rare ones who know love, who understand it. Who freely give of themselves, demanding only a return of that love,that trust.
Plan B?’ Ivy said. ‘What is plan B?’Jenks reddened. ‘Grab the fish and run like hell,’ he muttered, and I almost giggled.
Ivy!’ I stammered, then glared at Kisten. ‘You told Ivy? Thanks a hell of a lot. Want to call my mom next?
You had this all planned, didn’t you?’ I accused. ‘Thought you could come in here and seduce me like you do everyone else?’ It wasn’t as if I could be angry, lying atop him as I was, but I tried.
His right ear still held both studs, and I wondered who had the missing earring. I would have asked, but was afraid he’d tell me Ivy had it.
His attitude, though always bad, has changed since he helped me prep the Pandora charm for Morgan. He thinks I’m falling for her, as ridiculous as that sounds, and he might be tempted to take matters into his hands.
Endings are not always bad. Most times they’re just beginnings in disguise.
I only snatched him to get your attention,” I said. “Now that I’ve got it, this is what I want.”“Damn my dame!” Al shouted, hands raised to the ceiling. “I knew it! Not another list!
Shouts of dismay rose as the red flesh splattered against the table. It was only a tomato, but one would think I was pulping a decaying heart by the noise the big, strong FIB officers were making.
Emojin stopped, turned, and nailed him with her glare. “Because she’s making this one piece all she’ll ever need to show the world who she is instead of coloring her body with random images and needing thirty expressions to show her soul.

I have to save the world tomorrow, and I don’t even know what I’m going to wear yet.–Rachel Morgan
Bug? You sack of sweat stink. I’ve got farts that smell sweeter than you. Think you’re better than me? Poop ice cream cones, do you? Call me a bug! Rachel, let me do him now.
It is not always what we do, Sa’han, but who we love that makes us who we are. Quen
The undead did not love, but they remembered love with a savage loyalty.
…treat people with understanding when you can, and fake it when you can’tuntil you do understand.
I was cold, hungry, and in a hole in the ground. But at least I had my elven porn, damnit!
And I’m not spying! I’m evaluating!”“It’s the same difference!
You don’t have to have sex to find a feeling of closeness and understanding. Lord knows I feel that way about you. Use that to shackle your hunger. Isn’t that what love is?
I like attics. They’re as peaceful as God’s church. Alone and apart, but a body can hear everything. The past stacked up like forgotten memories, but with a small effort, brought down and enjoyed again.
Arms wrapped around me, I looked over the past boxed up and piled haphazardly about, like memories in a person’s brain. It was only a matter of knowing where a thought was and dusting it off.

Will your dad freak if I kiss you good-bye?” he asked.
Just let me sleep,” she grumbled. “Let me sleep, and I’ll sign a paper that you’re a fucking angel.
Mistakes can be fixed but if you do it more than once, it’s no longer a mistake.
I am not going to live with regret for not having tried.
Growing up is hard, love. Otherwise everyone would do it.

Humans were so ignorant, taking for granted what they received from each other, never knowing the energy they passed between themselves.
Nothing is so hard that it can’t be found by searching.
As my hand found his, bitter salt tears spilled from my eyes, in sorrow and pain and regret that I had so utterly failed him.
You need to be clever to best him. Are you clever, Rach
…the Uncommon Stupidity charge agents me be dropped.”My shock at the “Honorably Ass-kisser” comment was pushed away by the thought of a law agents uncommon stupidity and wondered how we could get one.
From the back came an unearthly, satisfied chuckle. All I could see in the rearview mirror was a dark shadow with red goat-slitted eyes. Fear slithered throu
Chubi, rhymes with booby, which you don’t have, or doodie, which your face looks like,” she said smugly, leaning back and making her chair squeak.
