"Don't worry, that's what I'm here for..."

~Disclaimer~ -May contain slight use of profanity. ~~~ "His name's Garroth- I found him, during my hike through the woods..." "...Dante...care to explain why there is a shirtless stranger...in our living room." "Thank you, for your graciousness. Honestly, I'm not sure if I would've been able to last, if it weren't for you." "We aren't living in some medieval, or fantasy, era. This is real life. Snap out of it." "I am suffering from memory loss. I have no recollection of events prior, to your friend Dante finding me." "Even if you are cute, I'm not letting that get in the way of how I feel towards you. You're obnoxious." "So, you figured that kissing me would solve that conflict?!" "...The world keeps moving around us. We can either stay here, or move with it. That's the true hard part." "Stop toying with my emotions, damn it! One minute you say you hate me, the next you're flirting with me?! I don't know what to think of you, anymore." "Miss Aphmau, you have to help me... I think I'm falling for...him..."

We both may be different, but we have our unique ways of lighting up the world. And, you help me with that part..." "I...I think I have fallen in love..." "Does he really care about you? Or, is he using you? Just look at how he can act towards you." "...This isn't your universe..." "You can't leave me!" "I'm sorry...but I can't stay here any longer. This isn't my home. I wish I could take you with me, but I can't..." "I have to go now..." ~~~

"I'm sorry, It was rude of us to participate in battle in your backyard." "It's not that simple you know." "Laurence...." "I wished he was." "I can replace him if you want." "I-I love you..."
