“Lisabeth möchte auch, dass Madita gut rechnen kann, und sie denkt sich die ausgeklügelsten Rechenaufgaben für sie aus, genau wie Papa es immer macht. "Madita", sagt Lisabeth aus dem Holzkasten hervor, "wenn es zehn Jungen gibt und sie einen davon operieren, wie viele sind dann noch übrig?”

“It's been fifty years since that day... Inuyasha is still sealed to the Tree of Life. Inuyasha is as he was then. At that time, Sister knew her life was over. Then why did she choose to use a sealing arrow and not a purifying arrow? Why did she seal Inuyasha to the tree which transcends time, the Tree of Life? And why... although he hated my sister for sealing him onto the tree, Inuyasha's face still looks so peaceful? I still don't get it... I wonder if a day will come when I will fully understand...?" ―Kaede”

“When this all goes to shit and my best friend rightfully punches me the fuck out, takes my company, and kicks me out of his life, I'm going to remember this moment right here. The moment it all seems worth it." Her lips start to lift, and I tell myself that I'm doing the right thing. The right thing for me, for once in my damn life. "With you standing in front of me, back straight, fire in your eyes, hair a mess from my hands, and that ring on your finger. When that happens, help me remember, okay?" Courtney nods, licking her lips and moving into my space. She presses me into the counter with her body, bare tits pressed to my chest and hope in her eyes. Hope for me. For us. And it's beautiful and sweet and all I ever wanted. "It'll be okay, Kaede. It'll be finer than fine, I promise." Sure, it will. I nod, even though I don't believe her. I'm only risking ... everything. Court might lose some face, and yeah, Ross will be mad at her. But she's his sister. He'll forgive her. But he legit might kill me. I kiss her anyway, signing my own death certificate.”

“Onigumo: "You, young lass.." Kaede: "It's Kaede." Onigumo: "Yes... Your sister possesses what is known as the Shikon Jewel, does she not?" Kaede: "What would ye know about the jewel?" Onigumo: "All who are wicked know of it, and pursue it." Kaede: "Ye included?" Onigumo: "I understand that the more evil the jewel absorbs, the more evil it becomes; outstanding." Kaede: "My sister has it under her control, it won't be corrupted." Onigumo: "Kikyō's manner is self righteous; for once I should like to see her apprehensive and frightened, that would bring me true pleasure.”

“That was the first time I'd seen the Sacred Jewel. And after she was given custody of it, sister Kikyō's fate changed drastically. She would watch other girls her age indulge in make-up, paint their faces white, and enjoy their youth." ―Kaede”
