Summary
“Anyone ever tell you you’re a funny guy, Pete?”
“Oh, all my life. A real comedian.”
This was a lie. People had called you a lot of things. Only Ray ever said you were funny.
“Funniest guy I know,” Ray chuckled. You could hear his grin. It was nice.
It was nice to have Ray Garraty with you, even like this. Even if it meant you were just crazy.

Summary
They sleep pretty close together in the tent, yeah, but – that’s all four of them, and it's a tent; that's what you expect. It's not the same as sharing a bed with someone.
Sharing a bed, he's slowly realising, with Noct.

Summary
Rian looked terribly small against the endless plain. They all were, Brea thought unhappily, such little beings compared to the deep, ancient wonder of Thra. Would anyone be left to write books about them, after their deeds were done?

Summary
“I think you are a good man,” he told me. I’m sure I snorted or scoffed. “Truly, John. A man able to learn, to change, to regret the actions of his former self - that is surely a good man.”
“Your standards are low.”
“No,” he laughed. “I simply like you very much.”

Summary
March had his palm read once, years back, by a hack psychic in a gaudy tent at some old timey carnival Holly had begged to go to. She'd taken one look at his craggy hands – two fingers bandaged at the time - and told him, in no uncertain terms, that if he didn't slow down, boy, he was gonna hurt himself. He tipped her very badly.
Suffice to say, he did not often have the appearance of a man in control of his own destiny.

Summary
Healy rubs the back of his neck, sweating from the midday sun, wipes his palm on his jeans. He's getting soft in his old age, he guesses. A hard man who doesn't know how to defend himself from scared young girls.
Or, he supposes, idiot thirty-something single fathers.

It's not the question Steve expected. "No," he admits. "I don't think we ever will be, Buck."

Summary
Sometimes he stood at the bottom of Lani’s lifeguard tower and shouted up to ask her whether they were going steady or not yet. “What do you think?” Lani called back, not looking at him.
“I’d say yes? Yes. I’d say that, that’s totally what I’d say.” Lani didn’t reply, and Cody couldn’t tell from the angle whether she was smiling or not. He took her silence as agreement.
