Status Updates From Nightshade (Night Tales, #3)

Colton Nightshade, now there's a name...

Colt:“Do you know the difference between a ratchet and a torque wrench?”
Althea:“No. Why should I? I have a perfectly competent mechanic to look after my car.”
Colt:“And if you break down on the highway?”
Althea:“What do you think?”
Colt:“If I made a comment like that, you’d call it sexist.”

"Some people add two and two and get five." - Althea Grayson

Allison:“Mom, Bry’s feeding Bongo his cereal.”
Cilia:“Bryant Fletcher, you’re going to be wearing that cereal in a minute.”

Colt:"God, Thea, she’s just a child."
Althea:"Children are tougher than most people think. They close things off when they have to."

Althea:“Jack?”
Jack:“Mmm-hmm?”
Althea:“If you don’t move your hand-say, within the next two seconds-I’m going to stab it, really, really hard, with my dessert fork. It would hurt, Jack. You wouldn’t play racket ball for a month.”
