256c5c9 | Nico knew something about ghosts. Letting them get inside your head was dangerous.

0614973 | After his experience with Minos, Nico realized that most spectres held only as much power as you allowed them to have.

21f5da6 | AFTER THEIR FALL INTO TARTARUS, jumping three hundred feet to the Mansion of Night should have felt quick. Instead, Annabeth's heart seemed to slow down.

Died of massive injuries while leaping like an idiot into the abyss of Chaos.. | Rick Riordan | ||

ffe70ae | I pressed PLAY and started up Chiron's favorite--the All-Time Greatest Hits of Dean Martin. Suddenly the air was filled with violins and a bunch of guys moaning in Italian. The demon pigeons went nuts. They started flying in circles, running into each other like they wanted to bash their own brains out. | humor pigeons | Rick Riordan | |
5f6c384 | That Chippendale is a coffee table, Lieutenant, not a footstool." "How do you walk with that stick up your ass?" She left her feet where they were, propped comfortably on the table.

"We'll have the hors d'oeuvres in here." He held out a hand to Eve. She waited, deliberately, .. | J.D. Robb | ||
2bf32a4 | Assaulting an officer will earn you one to five, Roarke. That's in a cage, not cushy home detention." "You're not wearing your badge. Or anything else, for that matter." He gave her a friendly nip on the chin. "Be sure to put that in your report." | roarke-humor roarke | J.D. Robb | |
1f05d9b | For a moment, she let herself forget about the business at hand and smiled at him. "You know, Roarke, you're kind of cute." She realized it was the first time she'd really surprised him. His head came up, and his eyes were startled--for perhaps two heartbeats. Then that sly smile came into them. The one that made her own pulse jitter. "You're going to have to do better than that, lieutenant. I've got you in." "No shit?" Excitement floode.. | J.D. Robb | ||
f8013f9 | Maybe they're out doing the tango and drinking tequila shots." He sent Eve a grin. "As we will be when we reach their age. After which we'll come home and have mad sex." "For God's sake. This is on the record." "Yes, I know." He stepped off with her on Var's floor. "I wanted those future plans to be official as well." | on-record future-plans roarke | J.D. Robb | |

63827fb | She came before she could stop herself, a small pop of release. Panting, she ripped the goggles off and found Peabody gaping at her. "It wasn't a walk on a quiet beach," Eve managed.

Not exactly a diff.. | Marian Keyes | ||

4ac28fb | This is the solstice, the still point of the sun, its cusp and midnight, the year's threshold and unlocking, where the past lets go of and becomes the future; the place of caught breath, the door of a vanished house left ajar... | Margaret Atwood | ||
91f96af | I sink down into my body as into a swamp, fenland, where only I know the footing.... I'm a cloud, congealed around a central object, the shape of a pear, which is hard and more real than I am and glows red within its translucent wrapping. Inside it is a space, huge as the sky at night and dark and curved like that, though black-red rather than black. | feminist | Margaret Atwood | |
