Meg:
She shuts her eyes, takes a deep breath and turns back. "I'm sorry," she apologises. "I'm angry. He's stolen my son, blithely reshaped my home, and I haven't yet worked out how to crush him like a bug. It's frustrating."

Solange 12/22/06
"Sentimentality aside, it's a loss. Our benefits from maintaining a garrison here to protect a broken Pattern that we, as far as I know, _get no return from _, gives us a cost benefit ratio of less than one," Solange says, frowning. "The only reason we're here is to keep others from using it against us. I think we should cut our losses and finish the job."

Lilly 12/19/06
Lilly looks at Brennan and a frightening smile, one that clearer indicates that this entire thing is becoming complicated enough to please a child of Benedict (or for that matter Benedict himself), meets her eyes as she speaks.

Solange:
Solange returns her attention to Caine and shrugs. "I think it should be destroyed now that there's a viable Pattern in Xanandu. But I'm less than half a century old. What do I know?"

HoC quotes part 1 12/7/06
Brennan:
"You wound me, Lilly," Brennan says lightly. "But yes, lots of stories. I'm thinking one of them ends with, '...And that's why this young lady, whose name I have already told you, thought that you were going to try and affinate her,' yes? Which--" Brennan looks back at Signy for this next, "--by the way, I'm not. Affinations are Marius' department for the time being."
Brita:
"Other than the Trump of Our Uncle, which I would be Loathe to Use Directly. I do Not Believe we are Strong Enough to Withstand an Uncle, However Disconnected from Reality he may Be."
Celina:
Celina makes herself comfortable. "I'm not officially with a shell. I'm prospecting a bit. Bad timing that I run into a blockade."
Conner:
"I do have the gift of gab and a knack for identifying local needs and concerns." Rooker admits. "From seaward to court and a few places that aren't even in between."
Edan:
Gold eyes lift to meet the gaze of the stranger. "And my name is Edan. In my homeland, where a name can be a language unto itself, it would be, 'Edan ibn Bleys ibn Oberon al-Kehribar al-Salaamal-Djinn-al-Ghanii'. I am pleased to make your acquantance."
Folly:
Folly grins up at [Martin]. "Yes, well, at least I'm *your* pain in the ass," she says.
Garrett:
When she answers, he releases the breath he didn't realize he'd been holding. "Paige. It's Garrett," he says hastily. "Jovian just tore out of the infirmary. He jumped off the..." His eyes narrow as he notices her muddy clothes and bloody lip. "What the... What happened to *you*?" he exclaims.

New Quotes! 8/31/06
Lucas (to Solange): "Enjoy your doctor, cos. Don't let him get too sanctimonious."
---------------
"Isn't that obvious?", says Germaine. "Your fate and that of the woman who floats
are clearly tied."
"So, fate is a shoelace, to trip upon?" asks Kyril.
-----------------
Folly thinks about that for just an instant before she starts to laugh, appreciatively and infectiously. "Oh, the universe has a strange sense of humor, doesn't it?" she says when she has caught her breath again. "It must take after its father."
"Its enigmatic mother made Random our King," Paige reminds her as the laughter infects her. "She's not exactly innocent, either."
-----------------
An enormous sob rips through Robin and she leans her forehead against Canareth's suffering skin. "I'm sorry, Canareth. I'm sorry." The girl allows herself one sorrowful wail. Then she lifts dread-filled liquid eyes to her brother.
-------------------
Paige: "Point of order, oh creator of Xanadu. Is the bunny gun going to work up in the woods if I need it to?"
"Huh? No gun should work here. Do you have a gun that actually firesbunnies? Doesn't that upset your kids? Because I know that the idea disturbs me."
---------------------
Edan: "If you do find Weyland, and by chance have the opportunityto ask him..."
Brennan's eyes light with faint amusement. "Is Bleys asking me to do him a favor?"
The corner of Edan's mouth moves upward. "I would not burden him so,"he says. "It would be doing me a favor."
"Good answer," Brennan says, still amused, as they reach Fiona's suite. Brennan will knock, if Edan doesn't.
------------------
He can handle being outdoors but Jerod has little desire to remain there when warm food, good drinks and comfortable sheets are within riding distance.
-------------------
Ossian draws his trump case from a pocket."I'm not the most verbal in our family." he pulls the Brand Trump fromthe case and hands it over to Ambrose.
-------------------
"My Interest is the Protection of Town Abford as I am Cousin to MistressCarper who has Ties here," Brita nods at Morris with this statement. "My Knowledge of the Protector's Business stems from the Fact that he is MyUncle and His Concerns are My Concerns. His Failure would Affect Me andMine as well as Town Abford." She does not indicate how it would affect her.
-----------------
Garrett looks surprised at that. "Grandfather didn't tell you? Iwould've thought that if you were raised as a prince, you would've known all along. That it would've been part of your training."
Random laughs. "'Training'. Son, one of my dear brothers knighted me whenI was about 25. I was dubbed 'Sir Perfluous'."
-----------------------
"I don't suppose you know how your father managed the trick of making guns work in Amber?" Conner inquired.
Celina registers she has learned another secret of the Amber family. She frowns thinking about Huon and his army but looks to Merlin.
"Yes," Merlin says, but does not elaborate.
