    Erin Morgenstern
    “I made a wish on this tree years ago," Marco says.

    "What did you wish for?" Bailey asks.

    Marco leans forward and whispers in Bailey's ear. "I wished for her.”

    “What did you see when you died?"
    He has that tenative half smile, like he's almost embarrassed by what he's saying. "Because I'm guessing it wasn't the Sea of Tranquility."
    And when I look at him, I'm not so sure it wasn't.
    “Where did you go?" His voice drops just slightly and loses even the suggestion of a smile.
    He's watching me like he's not sure he's allowed to ask the question, and he's not even sure he wants the answer. I can almost see his grandfather's words and Josh's doubts about them swimming in his head. On every side of me are the lights and the tools and the wood and the boots and the boy I want to see forever. And if the my Sea of Tranquility were real, it would be this place, here, with him.
    I don't say anything right away, because I just want one minute to look at his face before I give him my last secret.
    And then I tell him.
    "Your garage.”
    Katja Millay, The Sea of Tranquility

    Katja Millay
    “Maybe one day you'll come back. Maybe you never will and that'll suck, but you can't keep doing this. The blame and the self-loathing and the bullshit. I can't watch that. It makes me hate you for hating yourself. I don't want to lose you. But I'd rather lose you if it means you'll be happy. I think if you come back with me today, you'll never be okay. And I'll never be okay if you aren't. I need to know that there's a way for people like us to end up okay. I need to know that there even is such a thing as okay, maybe even good, and it's out there and we just haven't found it yet. There's got to be a happier ending than this, here. There's got to be a better story. Because we deserve one. You deserve one. Even if it doesn't end with you coming back to me.”
    Katja Millay, The Sea of Tranquility

    Criss Jami
    “Just because something isn't a lie does not mean that it isn't deceptive. A liar knows that he is a liar, but one who speaks mere portions of truth in order to deceive is a craftsman of destruction.”
    Criss Jami

    Kelley Armstrong
    “Xavier leaned forward. "Sarcasm aside, you don't need a guy like that, Elena. Maybe you think you do - only female werewolf and all that - but hell, I've seen what you can do - tied to a chair, up against a male werewolf. You can do that, you don't need some fucking psychopath like Clayton Danvers-"
    He stopped, noticing my gaze.
    "He's standing right behind me, isn't he?" Xavier muttered.
    "Uh-huh."
    Xaview tilted his head back, saw Clay, and disappeared. He reappeared on the opposite bench, pressed up against me. I looked over at him, eyebrow raised. He swore under his breath and teleported to the far end of the other bench. Then he stood and turned to Clay.
    "You must be-"
    "The fucking psychopath," Clay said.
    "Er, right, but I meant that in the most respectful way. Believe me, I have the utmost regard for, uh..."
    "Raging lunatics," I said.
    Xavier shot me a glare.
    "Oh sit down," I said. "He didn't bring his chain saw.”
