"I`m not using your money."
"Of course you are. Look, let`s pretend we argue about this for two hours, and maybe I make you cry, and then you make me cry, and then you grudgingly admit that you can use the money - because that is what`s best for little Ruby."03 - RamingoWS20 января 2017 г.
"Your guy, he sounds like an asshole."
"No, he`s just..." She put down her mug. "Well, he can be an asshole. I`m just not sure if he is an asshole. He`s himself."03 - RamingoWS20 января 2017 г.Читать далее
"I just think it`s so... cool. I mean, I can`t get over the idea that you made her, inside you."
"I had help."
"Yeah, but still. It`s kind of amazing, isn`t it?" Somehow a bundle of overeager cells had stolen a strip of chromosomes from an incoming sperm, decided to rampantly duplicate, then organized themselves into eyes and ears and fingers. Then, at some indeterminate point, the wad of tissue became conscious, a sentient being with thoughts and feelings of its own. A person. A specific, unique person.

He`d thought about salvation a lot, actually. Eternal life, his immortal soul, how Jesus had died for his sins. Though why some sacrifice was necessary was never explained. For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten son. It seemed to Stony that there was no need for God to send his own son off to be tortured and killed, just so God could bring him back to life and prove that he was his son. Why not just forgive their sins himself? He was God. Was he so petty that he need some kind of payment, or else he`d burn all of humanity in hell?

He fought with Junie much more than he ever fought with Chelsea or Alice. Partly this was because they were together more often, so fights were bound to happen, in the same way that most car accidents occur within seven miles of home. Partly this was because, as he`d tried to explain to her, Junie was an erratic personality. And partly this was because, as Junie explained to him, he was a jerk who used phrases like "erratic personality" and thought he was smarter than everybody else.

He`d lived among them his entire life, and it seemed like he`d spent most of that time in a state of bafflement.
