| 1ca0375 | The world's a hard place, Danny. It don't care. It don't hate you and me, but it don't love us, either. Terrible things happen in the world, and they're things no one can explain. Good people die in bad, painful ways and leave the folks that love them all alone. Sometimes it seems like it's only the bad people who stay healthy and prosper. The world don't love you, but your momma does and so do I. | Stephen King | ||

| fefa230 | Lea stood upon a fallen log ahead of us, staring ahead. Mouse walked up to her. Gggrrrr rawf arrrgggrrrrarrrr," I said.

I sat down. Something in me really didn't like that idea, but when I looked around, I saw that everyone else had done it.. | humor mouse leanansidhe karrin-murphy sanya thomas-raith molly-carpenter harry-dresden | Jim Butcher | |
