I go where the lizards tell me.
Scott Westerfeld

Scott Westerfeld
your not alone, Tally. Don't pretend you are
Scott Westerfeld
It's just programming No. It's because I love him
Scott Westerfeld
maybe when you look at your face 50 times its really not that interesting anymore
Scott Westerfeld
Okay... That's still blind-making.
Scott Westerfeld
Even mocking people helped their face stats. In the reputation economy, the only real way to hurt anyone was to ignore them completely. And it was pretty hard to ignore someone who made your blood boil.
Scott Westerfeld
What did a happy ending even mean in real life, anyway? In stories you simply said, 'They lived happily ever after,' and that was it. But in real life people had to keep on living, day after day, year after year.
