“Let's face it, she can't have simply disappeared...can she?" Horace shrugged. "That's what I keep telling myself," he said morosley. "But somehow it looks as if she has.” IfsLooksSaidFaces Author:John Flanagan
“Once again Erak bellowed with laughter. "Your master here went nearly the same shade of green as his cloak," he told Will. Halt raised an eyebrow. "At least I found a use for that damned helmet," he said, and the smile disappeared from Erak's face. "Yes. I'm not sure what I'm going to tell Gordoff about that," he said. "He made me promise I'd look after that helmet. It's his favorite-a real family heirloom." "Well it certainly has a lived in feel to it now," Halt told him, and Will noticed there was a hint of malicious pleasure in his eye.” FeelsWellsLooksMadeSaidRealUseEyeFacesFoundPleasureMastersPromiseLaughterGreenRaisedNot SureHis EyesShadeEyebrowsHintsHaltCloaksHelmetMaliciousHeirloomsReal Family Author:John Flanagan
“Svengal lay groaning on the turf. His thighs were sheer agony. His buttocks ached. His calf muscles were on fire. Now, afterhe had tumbled off the small pony he was riding and thudded heavily to the turf on the point of his shoulder, the shoulder would hurt too. He concentrated on trying to find one part of his body that wasn't a giant source of pain and failed miserably. He opened his eyes. The first thing he saw was the face of the elderly pony that he had been riding peered down at him. Now what made you do a strange thing like that? The creature seemed to be asking.” TryingFirstsMadeBodyEyePainFacesHurtFireSawsStrangeSourceCreaturesAskingLaysShouldersGiantsHis EyesMusclesRidingAgonySheerElderlyStrange ThingsThighsCalvesPoniesGroaningTurfButtocks Book:Erak's Ransom (Ranger's Apprentice Book 7) Source: Erak's Ransom (Ranger's Apprentice Book 7)
“King Duncan looked up and swept his gaze slowly around the room. Cassandra, he saw, was defiant as ever. Arald's face was set and determined. Halt and Crowley's faces were inscrutable in the shadows of their cowls. The two younger men were both a little wide-eyed- obviously uncomfortable at the emotions that had been bared in the room. There was still a hint of admiration in Will's eyes, however, as he continued to stare at the Baron. Rodney was nodding in agreement with Arald's statements, while Gilan made a show of studying his nails.” MenLittlesMadeStillsTwoShowsEyeFacesRoomsEmotionStudySawsKingsShadowDeterminedWideStatementsStaringUncomfortableAgreementAdmirationNailsHintsHaltNoddingInscrutableDuncan Author:John Flanagan
“That's a big nose," he croaked and instantly realized he shouldn't have said something so impolite. I must be light headed, e thought. But the face smiled.

“S'mimasen," Alyss said repeatedly as they brushed against passerby. "What does that mean?" Will asked as they reached a stretch of street bare of any other pedestrians. He was impressed by Alyss's grasp of the local language. "It means 'pardon me,'" Alyss replied, but then a shadow of doubt crossed her face. "At least, I hope it does. Maybe I'm saying 'you have the manners of a fat, rancid sow.” MeanDoeSaidFacesLanguageDoubtStreetsShadowLocalsFatsMannersImpressedPardonPedestriansPardon MePasserby Author:John Flanagan
“What was that, Kurokuma?' asked one of the escorts riding near him. The others chuckled at the name. 'Nothing important,' Horace said. Then he looked at them suspiciously. 'What's this Kurokuma business?' The Senshi looked at him with a completely staight face. 'It's a term of great respect,' he said. Several others within earshot nodded confirmation. They too managed to remain straight-faced. It was a skill the Nihon-Jan had perfected. 'Great respect,' one of them echoed.” SaidImportantFacesNamesTermSkillsRidingConfirmationGreat Respect Author:John Flanagan
“Once you best a man, never gloat. Be generous and find something in his actions to praise. He won't enjoy being bested but he'll make a good face about it. Show him you appreciate it.
