Quote by Vyrgo Black

“Everything is going to be okay, my girl. I know that everything will work out for you. Be brave, be strong. Don’t listen to anyone – make your own decisions and take responsibility for them. Nothing stands in your way – only you. Remember that. Remember that always.”

“This is a love story, though. The kind where the lover laments all the years she lost at the altar of some false god. When regret seeps in, I try to remember the Hecatoncheires.

The only way we can fix this is if we start talking to each other, instead of at each other.”
