Quotes by Jae Waller (?)

“Don’t do it.” Airedain didn’t look up from the alder block he was chiselling. Bright red woodchips fell into a basket at his feet. “Send kids to school, I mean.” My brow furrowed. “Tiernan enjoyed it back in Sverba.” “Different for pigeons, ain’t it? I had to use a Sverbian name and cover my tattoos. Couldn’t speak Aikoto in class. The teacher made us stand in the corner for mentioning the aeldu. Can’t count how many fist fights I got into with itheran kids.”
― Jae Waller, Veil

“The mercenary jerked back. She’d transformed her eyes into their fox form, slit-pupilled and tawny. She smiled with long canine teeth and pulled him toward the river.”

“Read was steady and patient. At one point I made him explain something to me seven times, just to see how long it would be before he snapped and lost his temper.”

“He had a chiseled jaw and wavy hair the color of melted butter and dark eyes like cinnamon and broad shoulders and—look, I’m not doing this well at all, he sounds like a pastry when I do it.”
