"I'm not your boyfriend! I snapped, trying to gently move her hands away from my body.'How can you say that? Sara asked in horror.'It's shockingly effortless, I replied. 'My vocal chords vibrate, and my mouth and tongue articulate. I can even do it without thinking.

Sara asked, coming at me again.I backed away. 'How about never? Is never good for you?Sara, undeterred, said, 'You're the reason I go to therapy on Fridays.'The plot thickens! Gabby exclaimed for comedic relief."

"Shut the front door! Jenna exclaimed.Andrew disappeared into the foyer, and when he returned, his eyebrows were furrowed in confusion. 'The door is shut?"
Confusion
"He's focused on something-or someone-over her shoulder.The harmonious warbling of the rainforest morphs into organized disarray, as if a primitive maestro has thrown conducting to the wind and let Mother Nature take over. Birds trill a warning as the breeze rustles the plant life. Wings flutter overhead. A crescendo of stridulation changes tempo, the insects seemingly performing a sonata as the rhythm shifts yet again.'What-who is it? Summer asks in a strained whisper.His gaze lands on her, his brows furrowing. 'The Forsaken."
Justice
"I'm not above using unsavory beings to kick the Gods' asses, but the Phantoms are too unpredictable for my taste, I said."
Courage
"Death and his scythe do not come. No sweeping black capes or ethereal escapes. There's no pearly gate, no prisms of colors as his soul slips away. The stillness is cold steel. The silence is empty with no memory to mend it."
Death
"I'm sorry, he says. No two words were ever truer.Still, she says nothing. Once a shield, now her taciturnity is brandished like a blade, carving away his sanity. She's the flaw in the paragon of life-the reason angels choose to dive to their downfalls in fiery comets of stardust."
Grief
"Awe! Leaving so soon? Gabby said sweetly, holding the door open. 'I was just about to pull out the gun for you to play single-player Russian Roulette."
Forgiveness

"The Ferryman will transport us across the moat, Chris informed. 'Yeah. This seems legit, Gabriella quipped as Chris helped her onto the boat. Andrew followed behind.'Are you sure this isn't a trick? Egnatious asked.Again, uncertainty filtered into Chris's blue eyes, but he nodded anyway. 'This is the only way."
Consciousness
"Joseph, you're out of clean towels. Lucia poked her head into the living room, the rest of her hidden behind the wall. Her red hair dripped water onto my wooden floors.'She's in the buff. Jenna guffawed. Gabriella rolled her eyes, beaming.I rose. 'Go back to the bathroom. I'll bring you a towel, I ordered Lucia. She disappeared down the hall.'You have naked angels running around your house, Jenna continued through her laughter. Gabby laughed louder."
Absurdity
"If you decide to war with us, you will fail and suffer an eternity of misery, he informed, his tone steady and cold. 'Is that explicit enough?'Oh, don't be so dramatic, I said cheerfully, getting in touch with my inner smartass."
