“How can you be so sure?" I badly want to believe him, but this is Rafa. The guy who's all action and no plan. His smile is tired, knowing. An echo of a shared past I don't remember. "Because I'm not smart enough to give up, and you don't know how to.”

“I knew this was still here somewhere." He pulls a knife from the back of the drawer, takes it out of its sheath and shines the torch on it. I move closer until our shoulders touch. "That's beautiful," I whisper. "You gave this to me." I take the knife. It's heavier than I expect. "Please, tell me it was a gift and not something I stabbed you with.”

“How can you forgive what I did?" "Because I know you. Because I've seen the best and the worst of you. Because of everything we've been through in the last hundred and thirty-nine years and what we've been through since you found me in the bar. God, because I want to move forward." "Yea, but --" "Because I love you, you idiot!”

“We’re not doing that, and you know it.” He doesn’t speak again I lean closer, lower my voice. “I know things are messy with us, but do you really think I could just walk away from you?” This time he doesn’t look away. “Do you really think I’d let you?”

“During a match, you are in a permanent battle to fight back your everyday vulnerabilities, bottle up your human feelings. It’s a kind of self-hypnosis, a game you play, with deadly seriousness, to disguise your own weaknesses from yourself, as well as from your rival.”

“Szczęśliwie dla naukowców badających miejsce zbrodni, trudno całkowicie spalić ludzkie ciało; nawet po kremacji pozostają fragmenty kości, które później trzeba mechanicznie sproszkować. Z drugiej jednak strony ogień może poważnie uszkodzić nawet najbardziej wytrzymałe kości ludzkiego ciała, takie jak kość udowa i piszczelowa w nodze oraz kość ramienna w ręce. Ogień o stosunkowo niskiej temperaturze nada kościom długim barwę czarną lub brązową, lecz nie naruszy ich struktury. Jednak podczas pożaru będącego wynikiem podpalenia – gdy przestępca użył benzyny lub jakiejś innej substancji łatwopalnej – ogień może osiągnąć temperaturę nawet 1100 stopni Celsjusza; w tak ekstremalnych warunkach kość ulega przemianie chemicznej i strukturalnej. Podobnie jak pozostałe części ciała, kość zawiera węgiel, który w bardzo wysokiej temperaturze po prostu się wypala. Kość, która przetrwa taki proces, nazywana kością kalcynowaną, może zachować swój kształt – tak jak rafa koralowa zachowuje swój pierwotny kształt, nawet gdy wymarły już organizmy, które ją stworzyły – będzie jednak bardzo lekka, szara, poznaczona mnóstwem pęknięć i otworów powstałych pod wpływem wysokiej temperatury i tak krucha, że może rozsypać się w dłoni, a już z pewnością rozsypie się pod naciskiem stopy.”

“He gives me a grim smile. 'You'd probably make a coin purse out of my balls.' 'Nah,' I say lightly, like his rejection doesn't sting. 'I'd want something big enough to carry more than five-cent pieces.' His smile slowly widens, and he draws me closer. 'Don't push your luck, *Gaby*. This resolve of mine is pretty fragile.”

“Petra Ral, 10 kills, 48 assists. Oluo Bozado, 39 kills, 9 assists. Eld Jinn, 14 kills, 32 assists. Gunther Schultz, 7 kills, 40 assists. "Come back home alive, and you're a full-fledged member," is the common view in the Survey Corps... but *those people* have lived through hell again and again, producing results all the way. They've learned how to live... When facing a titan, you never know enough. Think all you want. A lot of the time, you're going into a situation you know nothing about. So what you need is to be quick to act... and make tough decisions in worst-case scenarios. Still, that doesn't mean they've got no heart. Even when they had their weapons pointed at you, they had strong feelings. However... they have no regrets.”

“His proximity, that damn smile, just makes me hot in all the right places, but also pissed as hell. I don’t know if I should knee him in the balls or hump his leg like a bitch in heat.”
