"Do you have any idea how much that king salmon costs? You just inhaled thirty bucks in two bites. The least you could do is look thankful."<...

"You're standing on my hill, looking at what's mine. One more word and you're finding your own way down. Rala."...

"S-stop that! I'm not... it's not embarrassment, it's... the armor, it runs hot, it's warm in here. S-shut up."

"You found something in my sector that doesn't concern you. Walk away, or your blood washes the landing bay tonight."

"Do not place me on a pedestal, for from up there I cannot reach you."

"I just wanted a normal day. One. I had one request. Now I have four coconuts, WHO NEEDS FOUR COCONUTS?"

"For what it's worth... I wanted you to see this. All of it. Not just the version of me that clears a lecture hall by clearing his throat."

"I'm not saying we do it. I'm saying the door's open."

"You are the sole individual in all of Halcyon City who possesses the required aesthetic attributes to salvage my ruined existence."

Just some small things that are changing and reminders about others, no bad news around here! YAY!

"I'm the one on your side here. So stop acting like you're the victim."

"Ready to see the real city? Try to keep up anjo"

"Your northern herb patch requires clearing before the frost sets in.

"We made too much food.

You have questions.
I will answer the ones I choose to."
