Quotes edit see section history

• “"To alter my past so that I can change my future."”

  Nick

• “Love will make you stupid, kid. Trust me. You won't listen to anyone, not even your own common sense.”

  Kyrian

• “"What can I say? I have a long history of not playing well with others."”

  Acheron

• “"And you wonder why I haven't volunteered to teach him how to drive?" "I know why you haven't volunteered. I, on the other hand, need a psych eval for being so stupid."”

  Kyrian and Acheron

• “"I know you can't stand to watch my girl shows. Just don't find us something scary or bloody. You know how much I hate anything to do with the supernatural."”

  Cherise

• “"And here the Simi thought men traded up, not down... Like way down. Bottom of the barrels."”

  Simi

• “"We can talk later, bu the Simi say you not gonna listen 'cause you hearing something else right now and it ain't got nothing to do with your boy ears or brains but rather your boy parts."”

  Simi

• “"It doesn't matter what other people think. The only opinion that really matters is yours. We are all the writers of our lives. We can make our stories comedies or tragedies. Tales of horror, or of inspiration. Your attitude and your fortitude and courage are what determine your destiny,"”

  Acheron

• “That man really wasn't used to open affection. He reminded Nick of a puppy being held by a small child. While he tolerated it, it was obvious he'd rather be getting a root canal or colonoscopy.”

  Nick thinking about Acheron

• “"I'm too young for this crap."”

  Nick
