    J.K. Rowling
    “Did you like question ten, Moony?" asked Sirius as they emerged into the entrance hall.

    "D'you think you managed to get all the signs?" said James in tones of mock concern.
    "Think I did," said Lupin seriously, as they joined the crowd thronging around the front doors eager to get out into the sunlit grounds. "One: He's sitting on my chair. Two: He's wearing my clothes. Three: His name's Remus Lupin...”

That he was twisted, crooked, wrong, but not so broken that he couldn't pull himself together into some semblance of a man for her.

    “I didn't think I was a personal problem. You hate me, remember?" "Every inch of you," Andrew said. "That doesn't mean I wouldn't blow you." The world tilted a little bit sideways. Neil dug his shoes harder into the floor so he wouldn't fall over. "You like me." "I hate you," Andrew corrected him, but Neil barely heard him.”
    Nora Sakavic, The King's Men

    “I hate you,” Andrew said casually. He took a last long drag from his cigarette and flicked it off the roof. “You were supposed to be a side effect of the drugs.”

    “You are a pipe dream,” Andrew said.”
    Nora Sakavic, The King's Men

This is a nervous breakdown. I know the difference even if you don't." Andrew dug his thumb into his lower lip like he could erase the weight of Neil's mouth and fixed his stare on the horizon. "I won't be like them. I won't let you let me be." Neil opened his mouth, closed it, and tried again. "The next time one of them says you're soulless I might have to fight them." "Ninety-two percent," Andrew said, "going on ninety-three.”
    Nora Sakavic, The King's Men
