“He should be with Emma. But Emma wasn't here; she was off having her own life, and that was as it should be, as parabatai were meant to be. It wasn't a marriage, the parabatai bond.

“He seemed like someone under a spell. Someone who knew he was under a spell, and was fighting against the pull of it”

“Normal Emma and Normal Julian would have laughed. But this wasn’t Normal Julian.”

“He closed his eyes. They had stopped dancing. They were standing still, Emma barely breathing, Julian's hands moving over her. Julian had touched her a thousand times: while they trained, while they fought or tended each other's wounds. He had never touched her like this.”
