Kindle Notes & Highlights
Either way, that’s rather impressive. You’d have a great career in politics ahead of you if, you know, we hadn’t destroyed your world and all the governments and stuff.
Pff
Quan Ch had hit level 43, making him the highest, though I had no idea why or how. The asshole fled any fight that looked like it might be difficult. Hopefully he was using his powers this floor to get everyone in his bubble to safety.
I doubt that
Whatever it was, the resulting creature looked like Chuck E. Cheese in drag.
Interesting Visual
The history of the Dirigible Gnomes is long, complicated, and tragic. But the end result is the inevitable result of all peaceful races. They were, eventually, forced to choose between fighting or being wiped out. They chose to fight.
Damn
“Because I’m going to kick your goddamn ass. And then I need to transcribe your map to you. That is if this town doesn’t get blown to hell in the meantime.”
Love him
“You keep destroying governmental buildings, Carl,” Donut said. “People are going to start thinking you have a problem with authority.”
He does
The world rumbled again as Donut and I looked at each other. “Chris,” I said. “Chris is in here with us.”
Uh oh
“Sometimes we do things that are not of our nature to protect our own.”
True
Ever since then, I’d think of my father and those fish whenever I saw one of those helmets. I’d think of those fish flopping on the ground as I desperately tried to pick them up, cutting my fingers on the glass. I’d think of the pain and blood and of them not surviving,
Why did this become so sad
Dirigible Gnome Corpse – Killed by falling from a great height with an assist by the Crawler Bitch Boy Carl.
The AI is on it's period
The mini-Donut looked up at the room and said with a voice that wasn’t even close, “I sure do like lasagna. I hate Mondays, Carl.”
Not a Garfield reference
He said she might come back. People who die in the collapse aren’t really dead, but they’re put in storage.
Wait what
A framed, University of Arizona Master’s Degree
Why do you keep bringing up Arizona
“You won’t win,” she gasped, gurgling the words. Foamy, colorless liquid oozed from her mouth and gills. “The Bloom will prevail. You will be forgotten.” “Nobody likes melodrama, Loita,” I said as the kua-tin died.
Slay
What I do from here on out is solely for me and my people. As long as I am alive, I will do everything I can to make them burn. They will not fucking break me.
Damn
You’ll die in a gutter without me. You need me. You think you’re just going to be fine? What will you do, you disrespectful little shit? You will break after just one day. And then you’ll die. That’s what you’ll do. Just like your fucking bitch of a mother.
Oh I hate this man
Tran turned to Vadim. “Do you own a red shirt? I feel as if I should put one on.” “What does that mean?” Vadim asked.
*In Steve Rogers voice* I understood that reference
There was a good five seconds of chaos where it felt as if I was just getting pummeled while the announcers howled with laughter.
This feels very hunger games esc
Vadim: Oh god, oh god. They’re in the pod with me. Oh god. Carl: What? What? Vadim: The pain amplifier… Warning: This message is from a deceased crawler. “Yikes,” was all I could bring myself to say.
Yeah maybe you should have listened
“Coward,” I shouted, my rage bubbling over. “This isn’t over!” Carl: Tran, send a message to Quan for me. Tell him that was just a deposit.
Oop
“I think they’re right about you. I think you’re crazy. Like, not a little weird crazy. Not guy who eats cereal without milk crazy. But crazy, crazy. Straitjacket crazy.” I took the cat into my lap, and then I pulled her to my chest. She purred heavily into my ear.
My babies
My culture has a story of a people who built a tower to reach the gods before the gods struck it down and scattered them all.
I know that story
She told me a story about this man and his cat who’d stopped everything he was doing to help a group of old people in wheelchairs and how this same man was planning on using this artifact he’d found to save people stuck in their bubbles. And it reminded me that Ife wasn’t the only one. That there is good in this world. There is something left to fight for. I might die tomorrow, but it won’t be because I’ve given up. And I want to thank you for that.”

"This I swear on my life. One by one, I will break you. I will break you all.”
YEAH BABY
Bea did none of those.
Oh no
Oh, I also had to shoot a human. Bea’s partner. He’s still alive. He tried to get to the pirate’s flechette. I’d call him brave, but he’s crying like a little girl.
Hehehe
