The Pit of No Return Quotes

“Poug turned to look at me with his most serious expression yet.  “Tell me . . . Robb Stark avenges the death of his father, yes?  The tyrant king Joffery is slain?  The beautiful Sansa is rescued unmolested?” “Oh,” I said, realizing I had Season One of Game of Thrones on the phone.  Oh, I thought as I remembered how fucked up that show was.  How do you break that to someone?  It was Santa Ain’t Real kind of revelation.  You lie, that’s what you do.  Even if you suck at lying.  “Sure . . . humans are known for their happy endings.  We just . . . love them.” “Good!” Poug proclaimed in joy, “As it should be!”
