Ridiculously Simplified Synopsis edit

Quotes edit
-
“And would you like me to come over and pretend to be your perfectly normal boyfriend? I can do a pretty good imitation of that. I've played the part many times, had over four hundred years of experience so far.”
Damen -
“So, how's school going this year? I haven't seen you around much - if at all." "Well, that's probably because I've pretty much skipped every day but the first. In fact, other than that, I haven't gone at all." "Ah. Bad case of senioritis, I guess. Usually doesn't start until the last semester, that's when it all falls apart. But it looks like you caught the bug early.”
Mr. Munoz & Ever -
“O-kay...and just what brand of illegal are we talking here? Larceny, bribery, usery, or some other illegal act that ends with a y?”
Miles -
“This is what senior year is supposed to be like. You know, ditching classes, playing hooky, having fun, indulging in a little illegal activity-”
Miles -
“It all comes down to your intention. when you put all your focus on a problem, you just get more of the problem. But if you put your focus on being of help, then your energy is directed toward the help instead of the problem. <skipped> So basically, whenever you're looking for a solution, you are feeling positive emotion - and whenever you're looking at the problem, you're feeling negative emotion, which, as you know, never gets us anywhere. But once you take your focus off yourself and your wants, and instead turn it toward how getting what you want might also benefit someone else, well then, you can't help but succeed. <skipped> That's the key behind any success.”
Ava -
“I can't talk you out of this, can I?" I shake my head again. "Then I'm going with you." "Going where? I haven't admitted to going anywhere." "Aw, maybe not, but a plan is surely forming, I can see it in your eyes.”
Damen & Ever -
“You've become increasingly comfortable with the breaking and entering, should I be concerned?”
Damen Auguste
