Nix still held Benny's hand, and her grip tightened to an almost crushing force, grinding his hand bones together.

Courage is tricky, oily. Easy to drop, easy to misplace. I thought that if you had courage you always had it.. . . Lilah, nothing is always there. Not courage, not joy, not hate or hope or anything else. We find courage, lose it, sometimes misplace it for years, and sometimes live in its grace for a while.
