Kindle Notes & Highlights
whipped off a quick illusion rune to change the appearance of my hair to a chocolatey brown instead of its usual, almost white blonde.

“Sign the papers.” I crumpled them in my fist and held his eyes despite wanting to look away. “Tell me.” He tapped his fingers against the paper and just slowly shook his head. “Because right now, you’re our only hope in saving the world.”
rolling my eyes go figure
“You know the drill. You open the gate, and it will sense which house you belong to and set you in it.”
ok unoriginal HP
Okay, so not hell. Just my life. That tracked, too.
Having my deepest thoughts probed had made me feel a little like a beetle on its back,
no seriously
“I think we have to try to trust the process, like Doyen O’Connor said. He’s supposedly the expert in this field. If he can shake loose a Quirk that might help us face off against Nocta, I’ll pull whatever he wants me to.” Ross let out a crack of laughter. “That’s what she said –”
bffr
“Plus, I’m not sure if you realize this, but I’ve got a lot of baggage. It might take all year just to get through it.”
Bandit snorted and let out a little grumble in his sleep. He was curled up tight on my pillow, and I tucked my blanket around him. He was better off here. Maybe he’d find a kid to connect with once I was gone.
bitch TAKE HIM W U
“Where do you think you’re going?” Bandit squinted up at me and yawned. “And why would you think you’re going without me?” Heart hammering, I bent and ran a hand over his head. “Right, sorry about that. Come on then, we need to get Opie.” He ran ahead of me, silent on his paws. “I’ll get her. Where do you want us to meet you?”
stand on business bandit
“You know, one time, in my youth, I had a terrible crush on this sow. She was fluffy, and cute, and had this amazing stripe down her tail. I was sure we were going to mate for life. Turned out she was a skunk, and since I had a nose, it didn’t work out.” He shrugged. “It was a bad time, I was heartbroken, but that didn’t stop me from getting out there and trying again.”
LOLOLOL
“Okay, maybe I’m not the best at pep talks. Let’s go eat. Food makes everything seem less terrible.” I couldn’t disagree with him there, so I rolled off the side of the bed and stood, grunting as my muscles quivered in protest. But the truth was, he wasn’t entirely wrong. I had to dust myself off and try again. For Opie, if for no one else. “Why does my whole body hurt?” I demanded as I padded toward the bathroom to brush my teeth. “Could’ve been toppling down a well and nearly getting murdered by a sea witch.”
None of my friends . . . none of them could ever know. Which is why I kept to myself more than ever after their confessions. Struggled with every class, even with Doyen Bob, because I could not unsee the grief on my friends’ faces. I could not unhear the pain in their voices as they spoke of those they loved and lost to Nocta. People who’d been killed by my father.
Bandit shot into the room, skidding to a halt. “Mission accomplished. Don’t eat without me!” I snorted. “I haven’t even started making anything yet.” “Wait, you can cook? You’ve been holding out on me.”
“I’m sorry, Opie. I’m sorry that I hurt your trust in me. I’m sorry –” “You almost died.” Her soft voice cut through me. “What would I do if you died, Harlow? You’re the only family I have left.”
tearing up
“If you won’t obey Doyenne Elmwood,” Typhon didn’t let me go, just dragged me closer to his face, his eyes dilating as he stared down at me, like he was the hunter and I was the prey, “Then you will obey me.”
okayyyyyy purrrrrrrr hehehhheheheheheheehhe
“Was it just me, or was that seriously hot?” Bandit squeaked.
