And do the things I do,
And if you do not like me so,
To hell, my love, with you.”

'Inessential penises?' Karou had repeated, delighted with the phrase in spite of her grief. 'Is there any such thing as an essential one?'
'When an essential one comes along, you'll know,' he'd replied.”
― Daughter of Smoke & Bone
