2 " Hope always comes in the darkest part before the dawn. "
3 " Naw. I think I’m growing on her. She hasn’t tried to escape for a whole week. "

4 " Himoto had once called war ninety percent boredom so extreme you'd do anything for relief and ten percent sheer, unrelenting terror. "

The feel of your body when I caught you on the wagon has tormented me in dreams ever since. I never know what is going on behind those eyes of yours.” He gave her a wicked smile and Shea’s breath caught at the sight. “You are a constantly evolving puzzle.

How could it be any but you? "
6 " The truth is a weapon best wielded carefully. "

7 " Jin made a sound as high pitched as a tea kettle as his spherical body vibrated with excitement. "Pirate hunters. We're going to be pirate hunters." Damn it. She'd lost him. Jin bobbed up and down, looking like a jack in the box. "I never say this, but be yourself, Kira, and we can realize our lifelong dream." Jin screamed to himself as he careened in a circle.

11 " But she knew better than anybody, home wasn't a place; it's a state of mind. It's the people you're with. And for her, those people were all here. "
12 " The point was that she was right, and they were wrong. If they’d listened, everybody would still be alive. They didn’t, so they were dead. Not her problem. She’d done her job. "
13 " You're a menace," Finn told her. Kira nodded. "So I've been told." She'd never let that stop her before. She didn't see why she'd change now. "
14 " She yearned for Graydon's presence. Pushing him off a cliff would have gone a long way to improving her mood right about now. "

15 " Hate and prejudice flourished in ignorance. It was easier to believe a stereotype when you never had anyone to compare to your misconceptions. It was harder when you had a living, breathing person challenging them. "
16 " Mom always said heroes made for shitty parents. She was right. "
