“So let’s make things physical,
I won’t treat you like you’re oh so typical”
Tegan Quin

“Instead of showing visibly distinct alternate identities, the typical DID patient presents a polysymptomatic mixture of dissociative and posttraumatic stressdisorder (PTSD) symptoms that are embedded in a matrix of ostensibly non-trauma-related symptoms (e.g., depression, panic attacks, substance abuse,somatoform symptoms, eating-disordered symptoms). The prominence of these latter, highly familiar symptoms often leads clinicians to diagnose only these comorbid conditions. When this happens, the undiagnosed DID patient may undergo a long and frequently unsuccessful treatment for these other conditions.

“Boys. Drau or mortal, they were all the same.”
Melissa de la Cruz, Stolen

“If you're nice, decent, attractive, get good grades and are talented, no one wants to read about that...They want to read what's out-of-the-ordinary, the scandalous, the shocking and the tragic. They want a story; they want to be captivated and what's typical does not give them that...unless, of course, that person ends up a victim, commits a crime or loses their minds via a love affair.”
Donna Lynn Hope

Rhys Bowen
“Is the princess still in the fitting room?"
"Oh no, darling. She appeared about half an hour ago. Poured herself a black coffee, and looked longingly at the cakes. That child is starving herself if you ask me. Now she's definitely too thin. European men do like a woman to have a little meat on her bones."
"And Prince Nicolas, have you seen him recently?"
"I haven't seen him since lunch. I gather he and Antone went out to shoot. And I expect Max went with them. They're only happy when they're shooting something. Apart from sex of course."
"Mother!" I gave her a warning frown. My mother glanced around at the other women, who were tucking into their tort with abandon.
"They won't understand. Their English is hopeless, darling. Besides, it is about time you are acquainted with the facts of life. I've hopelessly neglected my duty in that area. Men only have two thoughts in their heads. And those are killing or copulating."
"I'm sure there are plenty of men with finer feelings who are interested in art and culture."
"Yes, darling. Of course there are. They are called ferries. And they are quite adorable. So witty and fun to be with. But in my long and varied life I've found that the ones who are witty to be with are no use in bed. And vice versa.”
Rhys Bowen, Royal Blood

Deyth Banger
“You can take a break and go in a distant location, far from problems… far from troubles… far from home… but still this doesn't change anything… as I said and I will say again… it's just one typical day for me.”
Deyth Banger

Angel  Martinez
“You have the most lovely skin,”  Finn told her. “Like mahogany. Like the finest river loam. Could I touch it?”
“You are touching it, Casanova,”  Rita answered, eyes on the blood pressure dial. “Behave.”
“Casanova?”  Finn shot Diego a questioning glance.
“Famous lover.”
“Ah. A compliment?”
“Sarcasm.”  Please don’t make me explain sarcasm.
“Typical.”
Apparently, it wouldn’t be necessary.”
Angel Martinez, Finn
