3 " They are so beautiful—your eyes. And so different.” I sighed, trying to laugh it off. Emilia’s intensity was unusual but not surprising. It didn’t take a genius to understand why she’d be feeling somber tonight. “Men don’t like being called beautiful…” She grimaced at me and I saw a glimpse of my Mia return. “Whatever. Deal with it.

4 " There are moments that occur, that draw our memories, that seem denser than the string of moments before and after them. Years later, in your mind, you are drawn to them by an offhand comment, a flash of color, a scent, a texture, a taste, a feeling. But seldom do you realize the importance at the time that you were experiencing them, the memory’s equivalent of a bauble or souvenir. "

8 " With a long sigh, Emilia rubbed her forehead below the edge of the bandana wrapped around her head. “We must be missing something super obvious here. We’ve been at this for days and keep getting wiped out.” We were in the gaming room in my house, all sitting around a table with our laptops in front of us. Since we were all in the same room for once, we didn’t need headsets. I stifled a yawn. They always got extra irritated when I appeared bored. What did they expect? I had to mentally sit on my hands and let them figure this out by themselves. Kat straightened. “Okay, I’ve got all my spells back. We are good to go again.” “Shit. We have to do something different. I’m not just going to keep doing the same thing over and over again. This is bullshit. Seriously,” Heath moaned. "
