“Practically every princess in peril has been saved by Love's First Kiss! For goodness' sake, between witches and fairies, can't we think of something more original? I'm weary of this. Why must a young girl need a man to save her? Why can't a princess fight for her own life, break her own curse? Why must it always be a prince?

“Eventually I’ll get it right, and if I don’t, then that’s why we work in squads. I don’t have to be good at everything.”
