3 " I might have accidentally converted most of the clan to Mongolian metal music. Ooops. Sorry, not sorry. "

8 " It was easier to confide it to her, and I carefully didn’t look at Ciarán as I answered. “I’ve never been enough. No one chooses me for real.” Ciarán hissed out a denial. “Not true!” “Kiddo,” Nana said, expression pinched, “it’s not true. I know your parents make you think so, but it really isn’t. "

9 " It’d only reinforced that nothing I did was of interest to them. And while it was part of it, their response on top of Tabitha’s was too much. Years of loneliness, of feeling unwanted, of knowing the person I was would never be enough, ripped through me all at once. "

10 " I promise if you ever call out to us, any of us in the clan, we will hear you. We will hear you.” Tears burned at the back of my eyes and I hugged him fiercely to me. That was all I’d ever wanted. To be heard. To know the person looking back at me listened. Was invested in what I had to say. "

11 " Ahhh. Someone had put yet another ward around the tent to keep out dirt and bugs. They were not messing around with pest control here. "

13 " I let him go, lingering in my satisfaction. The man who says it can’t be done really shouldn’t interrupt the woman doing it. (Another of Nana’s phrases.) "

14 " Ciarán’s tail beat a happy rhythm against my shoulder. “Right. An open relationship with death.” “Death with benefits,” I countered, snickering. "

15 " I heard the words she didn’t say: Why can’t you just be normal. They stabbed, deep within my ribcage, and I flinched around the pain. “Tabby— "

16 " As you grow older, you’ll discover that the world is full of people who tell you ‘you can’t.’ Imagineers fight a constant battle to not listen to those voices, but I think we all succumb to it at some point. "

17 " Did she think friendship was like a food buffet? That you could choose which parts of someone you liked and wanted to keep, and ignore the rest? I’d never done that with her. I couldn’t understand why she’d done it with me. “I refuse to live in this world and not believe in magic. That’s too depressing.
