“Shimin gulps. "The last thing I needed was another reason for the world to hate me. Though, now..."
"Now?" Yizhi's voice goes as airy as the steam wreathing around them.
"Now, I see-" Shimin grabs Yizhi's chin. "It's all fucking bullshit."
He slams the window shut with his other arm, then leans down and takes Yizhi's lips with his own.
My heart stutters, drawing my chest tight. But I'm at peace with this. Instead of a betrayal of any form, it feels like a completion. My killer boy, my sweet boy. The final line in this triangular formation we've been dancing in, making us stronger than ever.
This is unconventional, yet another implicit rule we're breaking, but you know what? It works for us. And I think the three of us are done with letting the world tell us what's okay and what isn't.”

“Then he (Tangerine) reaches into a pocket and pulls out a different gun. "I do have this," he says somewhat sheepishly.
"Where'd you get that?"
"One of those guys holding the kid had it. I thought it was cute so I took it."
"Cute? Guns aren't cute. It's not like they have Thomas stickers on them. Thomas and Friends is for kids. Cute stuff and gun stuff are totally separate.”

“Then he (Lemon) leans in to Little Minegishi's corpse and takes hold of the back of the head, nodding it up and down like he's operating a puppet. "Lemon, you are a useful train," he says, doing his best ventriloquist act.”

“Then Tangerine hangs up.
Nanao leans against the window and gazes out, gripping his phone like he's waiting for a call from a lover.”

“Lemon knows all too well how dangerous Tangerine can be when he's angry. Usually Tangerine is content to read his novels and keep violence to an absolute minimum. But once he loses his temper he becomes ruthless and nearly unstoppable. It's impossible to tell from his demeanour whether he's angry or not, which makes him even more dangerous. He erupts all at once, without any warning, terrible to behold. But Lemon knows that when Tangerine starts quoting books and movies it's time to be wary. It's as if in his frenzied state the box of memories inside his head gets tipped over and the contents spill out, making him start quoting his favourite likes. It's the surest sign he's about to get violent.”
