“Chris had been a genuinely nice guy – a guy with a warm heart and friendly demeanour. What’s more, he, Mortimer, had lived and laughed alongside him – something his dead companions didn’t exactly evoke. OK. So they had their uses from time to time and offered him company when he desired it. Even so, that was it. They were dead, not living. Anyway, their conversations weren’t exactly inspiring.”

“Stop moping and think of a solution. A voice in his head told him. If you want to find your mojo again, then get on with it and stop wallowing in self-pity. This voice spoke the harsh truth.
He needed to man-up.
Nodding, Mortimer set his face in a line of steely determination, created a pile of papers and began to draft down possible ideas.
Mass suicide? Too messy.
Global war? Too soon.
Revenge cult? Too predictable.
NO.”

“I see her in the stars,” he said breathlessly. “I see her in the great lake that surrounds this glorious academy. I see her everywhere.” He looked drunk on love. “She is but a light and I her moth. I can’t help but be drawn into her soft beauty and her wilful manner.”

“What makes us bleed? Come on…THINK.
Love. The answer came to him in a blink of an eye. Love makes you bleed.
Pain. Another answer came to him. Pain makes you bleed.
Death. Death makes you bleed.
They all made you bleed. Not necessarily physically, but emotionally. Just like now. Just like what was happening to him.
The answers kept coming.
The answers were infinite.”

“The second reason - I don’t think I’m that unattractive. Alright. So I’m extremely ashen, with a jagged scar that splits my face in half from my temple to my chin. Then, there’s my disfigured nose and skin, which is like the texture of wallpaper paste (I suppose this comment is actually pretty offensive to wallpaper paste) and my crooked teeth, which would surely frighten even the likes of the Cheshire Cat. Really though, all things considered, I actually think I’m kind of hot – hotter than those Victoria Secret models for sure.”
