“Zee had only grinned at me when I was valuable to her. I'd go on to tangle with other bosses and authority figures, and that dynamic never changed. Affection never outlasted need. This was the first lesson the city taught me the hard way. The vast majority of us are merely pawns in someone else's game. Don't get defensive over this point. Embrace it.

The head was lowered, the green hedge horns pointing at him. The thing was, you couldn't watch all of them. Not all at once.”
