    Richelle Mead
    “I sent a quick text to Adrian: I have a hickey! You can’t ever kiss me again. I honestly hadn’t expected him to be awake this early, so I was surprised to get a response: Okay. I won’t kiss you on your neck again.

    So typical of him. No! You can’t ever kiss me ANYWHERE. You said you were going to keep your distance.

    I’m trying, he wrote back. But you won’t keep your distance from me.

    I didn’t dignify that with a response.”
    Richelle Mead, The Indigo Spell

    “If you went twenty-four hours without cigarettes, I'd drink a can of pop. Regular pop. The whole can."
    Isaw the glimmer of Adrian's earlier smile returning. "You would not."
    "I totally would."
    "Half a can would put you into a coma."
    Sonya frowned. "Are you diabetic?" she asked me.
    "No," said Adrian, "but Sage is convinced one extraneous calorie will make her go from super skinny to just regular skinny. Tragedy."
    "Hey," I said. "You think it’d be a tragedy to go an hour without a cigarette."
    "Don’t question my steel resolve, Sage. I went without one for two hours today."
    "Show me twenty-four, and then I’ll be impressed."
    He gave me a look of mock surprise. "You mean you aren’t already? And here I thought you were dazzled from the moment you met me.”
    Richelle Mead, The Golden Lily

    Richelle Mead
    “Adrian shook his head, still smiling. "I've said over and over, I'd do anything for you. I just keep hoping it'll be something like, 'Adrian, let's go hot tubbing' or 'Adrian, take me out for fondue.'"
    "Well, sometimes we have to--did you say fondue?" Sometimes it was impossible to follow Adrian's train of thought. "Why in the world would I ever say that?"
    He shrugged. "I like fondue.”
    Richelle Mead, The Indigo Spell

    Richelle Mead
    “Well, you can think what you want, so long as you remember - no matter how ordinary things seem between us - I'm still here, still in love with you, and care about you more than any other guy, evil or otherwise, ever will.”
    Richelle Mead, The Indigo Spell

    Richelle Mead
    “I don't care if you say we can't be together. I don't care if you think I'm the most evil, unnatural creature walking on earth. You can think whatever you want, go whatever you want. I'm going to just go on loving you, even if it's hopeless.”
    Richelle Mead, The Indigo Spell

    Richelle Mead
    “I was no better at reading people than I had been ten seconds ago, but in that moment, I suddenly gained a flash of understanding into the mystery that was Adrian Ivashkov. People didn't believe in him very often. They had low expectations of him, so he did as well. Even Eddie had sort of written him off: 'He's Adrian'. As though there was nothing to be done for it.

    I also suddenly realized that, as unlikely as it seemed, Adrian and I had a lot in common. Both of us were constantly boxed in by others' expectations. It didn't matter that people expected everything of me and nothing of him. We were still the same, both of us constantly trying to break out of the lines that others had defined for us and be our own person. Adrian Ivashkov — flippant, vampire party boy — was more like me than anyone else knew.”
    Richelle Mead, Bloodlines

    “But each time you use spirit, you're more likely to go crazy.”

    Richelle Mead
    “What am I supposed to do with a wool coat? Especially here in Palm Springs?”

    “Sleep with it,” he suggested. “Think of me.”
    Richelle Mead, The Indigo Spell

    Richelle Mead
    “Day 24. Situation is growing worse. My captors continue to find new and horrific ways to torture me. When not working, Agent Scarlet spends her days examining fabric swatches for bridesmaid dresses and going on about how in love she is. This usually causes Agent Boring Borscht to regale us with stories of Russian weddings that are even more boring than his usual ones. My attempts at escape have been thwarted thus far. Also, I am out of cigarettes. Any assistance or tobacco products you can send will be greatly appreciated.
    -Prisoner 24601”
    Richelle Mead, The Golden Lily

    “You're not as much of a lost cause as she was. I mean, with her, I had to overcome her deep, epic love with a Russian warlord. You and I just have to overcome hundreds of years' worth of deeply ingrained prejudice and taboo between our two races. Easy.”
    Richelle Mead, The Indigo Spell

    Richelle Mead
    “For once, you're going to hear something that doesn't fit into your neat, compartmentalized world of order and logic and reason.”
    Richelle Mead, The Golden Lily

  • #17
    Richelle Mead
    “How do you feel right now?"
    "I hurt like hell."
    "You'll feel worse tomorrow."
    "So?"
    "So, better get a jump on this while you still feel...not as bad."
    "What kind of logic is that?" I retorted.”
    Richelle Mead, Vampire Academy

    Richelle Mead
    “Whatever happened to the dragon?"

    I mustered my primmest tone. "He has a name, you know."

    Adrian pulled back and gave me a curious look. "I didn't know, actually. What'd you decide on?"

    "Hopper." When Adrian laughed, I added, "Best rabbit ever. He'd be proud to know his name is being passed on."
    "Yes, I'm sure he would. Did you name the Mustang too?"
    "I think you mean the Ivashkinator."

    He stared at me in wonder. "I told you I loved you, right?
    "Yes," I assured him. "Many times.”
    Richelle Mead, The Indigo Spell

    “Mmm. O positive, my favorite.”
    “Is it? I thought it was a cabernet sauvignon.”
    “So it is,” said Adrian, straight-faced. “My mistake.”
    Richelle Mead, Bloodlines

    “I decided the Alchemists needed an entire department devoted to handling Adrian Ivashkov.”
    Richelle Mead, Bloodlines

    Richelle Mead
    “Rowena Clark and I had met on the first day of our mixed media class. I’d sat down at her table and said, “Mind if I join you? Figure the best way to learn about art is to sit with a masterpiece.” Maybe I was in love, but I was still Adrian Ivashkov.

    Rowena had fixed me with a flat look. “Let’s get one thing straight. I can see through crap a mile away, and I like girls, not guys, so if you can’t handle me telling you what’s what, then you’d better take your one-liners and hair gel somewhere else. I don’t go to this school to put up with pretty boys like you. I’m here to face dubious employment options with a painting degree and then go get a Guinness after class.”

    I’d scooted my chair closer to the table. “You and I are going to get along just fine.”
    Richelle Mead, The Fiery Heart

  • #22
    Richelle Mead
    “Thanks for looking out for her, Sage. You're okay. For a human."
    I almost laughed. "Thanks."
    "You can say it too, you know."
    I walked over to Latte and paused. "Say what?"
    "That I'm okay...for a vampire," he explained.
    I shook my head, still smiling. "You'll have a hard time getting any Alchemist to admit that. But I can say you're okay for an irreverent party boy with occasional moments of brilliance."
    "Brilliant? You think I'm brilliant?" He threw his hands skyward. "You hear that, world? Sage says I'm brilliant.”
    Richelle Mead, Bloodlines

    Richelle Mead
    “Do you want me to call you Celery Stick instead of Cupcake or Honey-Pie? It just doesn’t inspire the same warm and fuzzy feelings.”
    Richelle Mead, The Indigo Spell

  • #24
    Richelle Mead
    “He shouldn't have said that," repeated Adrian, eerily serious. He leaned his face toward mine. "I don't care if he's not the emotional type or the complimentary type or what. No one can look at you in this dress, in all that fire and gold, and start talking about anachronisms. If I were him, I would have said, 'You are the most beautiful creature I have ever seen walking this earth.”
    Richelle Mead, The Golden Lily

  • #25
    Richelle Mead
    “Because I can't help doing it," he said with a shrug. "And hey, if I keep loving you, maybe you'll eventually crack and love me too. Hell, I'm pretty sure you're already half in love with me."

    "I am not! And everything you just said is ridiculous. That's terrible logic."

    Adrian returned to his crossword puzzle. "Well, you can think what you want, so long as you remember-no matter how ordinary things seem between us-I'm still here, still in love with you, and care about you more than any other guy, evil or otherwise, ever will."

    "I don't think you're evil."

    "See? Things are already looking promising.”
    Richelle Mead, The Indigo Spell

  • #26
    Richelle Mead
    “Is Adrian here?”
    “Who?”
    “Adrian. Tall. Brown hair. Green eyes.”
    She frowned. “Do you mean Jet?”
    “I … I’m not sure. Does he smoke like a chimney?”
    The girl nodded sagely. “Yup. You must mean Jet.”
    Richelle Mead, Bloodlines

  • #27
    Richelle Mead
    “My God, Sage. Your eyes. How have I never noticed them?"

    That uncomfortable feeling was spreading over me again. "What about them?"

    "The color," he breathed. "When you stand in the light. They're amazing... like molten gold. I could paint those..." He reached toward me but then pulled back. "They're beautiful. You're beautiful.”
    Richelle Mead, Bloodlines

    Richelle Mead
    “All the best,
    Sydney

    P.S. "The Red Hurricane" is what I named the car.
    P.P.S. Just because I like you, it doesn't mean I still don't think you're an evil creature of the night. You are.”
    Richelle Mead

    Richelle Mead
    “Yeah? Can you draw a skeleton riding a motorcycle with flames coming out of it? And I want a pirate hat on the skeleton. And a parrot on his shoulder. A skeleton parrot. Or maybe a ninja skeleton parrot? No, that would be overkill. But it'd be cool if the biker skeleton could be shooting some ninja throwing stars. That are on fire.”
    Richelle Mead, Bloodlines

  • #31
    Richelle Mead
    “I tried to be a better person for her– but it was to impress her, to get her to want me. But when I’m around you, I want to be better because… well, because it feels right. Because I want to. You make me want to become something greater than myself. I want to excel. You inspire me in every act, every word, every glance. I look at you, and you’re like… like light made into flesh. […] You have no clue how beautiful you are or how brightly you shine.”
    Richelle Mead, The Golden Lily
