I wondered what I’d end up looking like once I bloomed. I couldn’t even guess. If I had to be stuck in my own skinny, gawky, coltish body forever… well. It probably wouldn’t be so bad. I wouldn’t mind a little more in the chest, though. But wild horses wouldn’t drag that out of me. Ever.

Lilith Saintcrow
There was Kir, red hair combed back and That Expression on his sharp face. Even his freckles looked serious. I'd given up wondering how a freckle-faced teenager could look so much like a disapproving granny.
Lilith Saintcrow
He hadn't told me everything, but I'd left him for dead. I guess we were just about even...
Lilith Saintcrow
Touch me again, and it will be your last act in life - Blue Eyes.
Lilith Saintcrow
Christophe, with the careful tone of an adult telling a kid not to pet the nice foaming-rabid pooch.
Lilith Saintcrow
His shoulder bumped mine again. Can I ask you something? I didn't answer. He was going to ask me anyway. People don't say that if they don't want to pry something out of you.
Lilith Saintcrow
I wasn't sure if the word boys should mean dim or incomprehensible. I was hovering between the two, with a healthy dose of testosterone-poisoned.
Lilith Saintcrow
You're my friend, Danny. You understand? There's no debt between friends. Maybe it's just that the debt gets so high you stop counting it.
Lilith Saintcrow
Besides, the normal people here wouldn’t see it. That was what “different” meant. It’s just another word for lonely.
Lilith Saintcrow

I'd kind of expected that kids who knew about the Real World wouldn't act like jock dipwads. Guess I was wrong.
