Character dialogue

Marc: "As a side note, I have tons of respect for you guys for putting up with her."

Vanessa: "Thank you."

Marc: "I was talking to Fal and Clover."

Vanessa: "Yes, but WE put up with YOU, so we must have some of your respect too."

*the Raven screeches to a halt* "What, I'm like Marcaroni? How utterly devastating."

"On the other hand..." ~Fal.

*the Raven recovers and whirls a fire ribbon over her head* "You have different fingers!"

"Uh?" ~Kit

"Mwahahahahahhaa!" ~the Raven

"I was going to say - " ~Fal.

"Free half holidays all around!" ~the Raven

"... that that means the Marc is like the Raven, too." ~Fal.

"Yay! I always wanted an evil twin!" ~the Raven

Jake: *mildly, to the Raven* "What exactly ARE you anyway?"

Marc: "Why does she think I'm named after pasta?"

*to Marc* "'Cos you're yellow... and hard and soft when different and... I hate pasta!" ~the Raven

*to Jake* "She's a half-breed." ~Fal.

"And insane." ~Clover

"An insane half-breed." ~Fal.

"A flaming hybrid freak." ~the Raven

"Well, you said it, kid." ~Clover

"Three quarts, actually. Well, kind of three quarts. But really perhaps more than three quarts. Say part." ~the Raven

"Part." ~Rohsair

"Sa, part." ~the Raven

"Isn't it sad how projection works? It's like her - not the Raven's - whole existance revolves around waiting for someone to ask something like that. Sad, isn't it?" ~Iolo

"Tremendously sad." ~Clover

"Heart-breaking." ~Rohsair

"She has no life, otherwise!" ~Fal.

*the Raven giggles and blows on her hands, making them smoke*

Marc: "A hybrid, meaning...?"

Jake: *feigns shock* "Marc doesn't know something?!

Marc: "I know, shocking isn't it?" *to Raven* "Seriously though, what are you? A hybrid could mean anything. I'm Jewish and Cherokee and Polish, so I could call myself a hybrid if I wanted to."

Vanessa: "You're also part macaroni."

Marc: "Shut up, Ness."

'I don't have a clue what anyone is talking about...'-Blake

'That's because they like to change the subject all of a sudden. It's probably down to impatience.'-Ethan

'What's this about macaroni?'-Blake

'I don't know. I like macaroni...spaghetti is better though. Spaghetti Bolognese is just awesome.'-Ethan

'I dunno, it's not great in here...macaroni is still good though; macaroni cheese is nice. It's good comfort food.'-Blake

'Aw, I want Spaghetti Bolognese. My foster parent used to make awesome Spaghetti Bolognese.'-Ethan

'What, you can eat that?'-Blake

'As long as it's kosher, yeah. I only can't eat pork and bacon, and I don't really like any of that anyway.'-Ethan

'I couldn't avoid bacon. It's too nice. I mean bacon sandwiches...mmmm...'-Blake

Marc: *impatiently to Blake* "The Raven thinks I'm a cheesy pasta." *to Ethan* "And yes, I am impatient."

Jake: "Understatement of the millenium."

Marc: "Where's the little scavenger? I'm really really curious!"

"Part Danann! Now work that one out if you can." ~the Raven

*eye roll* "Hai Mai." ~Fal.

*points a finger at Fal* "He's purebred Danann." ~the Raven

"The Danann are... Well, you used to call us the Lordly Ones, and Fey." ~Fal.

*snicker* "The Lordly Ones..." ~Iolo

"You know in the King Arthur stories? Morgana le Fey was called the Queen of Air and Darkness and the Danann are - " ~Clover

"Morgana le Fay is almost always portrayed as being an evil witch. Now that just shows the predjudiced attitudes you humans had against us, later on. She wasn't really half as evil as the human stories make out." ~Fal.

"Tcha! Predjudice! La me!" ~the Raven

"We are the Children of Air. You can call us Elves if it makes you happy." ~Fal.

"Happy happy happy!" ~the Raven

"And you know Merlin? He was actually - " ~Fal.

"An animal?" ~the Raven

*dead silence*

"Oh my, did I say something tactless?" ~the Raven

"Shut. Up. Now." ~Fal.

"Already? Man, and I've hardly got started." ~the Raven

"Shut up!" ~Fal.

Marc: "So Raven's a witch, Merlin's an animal, and Fal is an elf. But if Raven's part elf, then that makes her, like, an elven witch. A woodland witch?"

Jake: "Give it up, Marcella."

Marc: "Don't be mad at me for being curious!"

Jake: "I didn't say I was mad."

Marc: "You used my full name. You're mad!"

How the heck did she turn into a cartwheel? ~ Acacia

Read properly, it says turns a cartwheel. ~ Sam

Well, excuse me. I do happen to only have one eye. ~ Acacia

I didn't ask you to give it to me. ~ Sam

Then can I take it back? ~ Acacia

No. Don't even think about it. And you can't take one from the others either. ~ Sam

"I'm a witch? Which witch? Fal, am I a witch?" ~the Raven

"Certainly not. Witches are evil." ~Fal.

"I'm evil!" ~the Raven

"Besides, they don't exist anymore." ~Fal.

"Merlin wasn't an animal. According to Stephen Lawhead he was like, half Greek and half Welsh." ~Clover

"Well, I'm Welsh, certainly." ~the Raven

"You know, Marc, Merlin the Enchanter. Hockety-pockety-wockety-wack... any of that sound familiar? Sword in the Stone?" ~Clover

"Maybe, 'cos they're American and all, they don't read that stuff?" ~Kit

"I think Clover's the only one who reads that stuff, regardless of nationality." ~Iolo

"You can't say it isn't useful, though." ~Clover

"It isn't useful. Yah!" ~the Raven

Vanessa: "I read the Sword in the Stone."

Marc: "But she's a nerd. I haven't read it. Watched the cartoon though."

Jake: "Why is Merlin an animal?"

Marc: "Do you realize that all our questions are making them give away their stories, and vice versa?"

Vanessa: "That's okay. And I'm not a nerd, by the way."

Marc: "You read a lot, you ride a bike because it's more economical than a car, and you own the special edition Lord of the Rings. You're a nerd."

Jake: "She's a nerd in disguise. Nobody else knows except us."

"Ooh, you got the special edition of LOTR? Have you read the Silmarillion?" ~Clover

"Another one who could be called a nerd." ~the Raven

"And proud of it." ~Clover

"If you make an effort to pronounce Raxacorricofallapatorious correctly and can string a sentence together in Elvish, then you open yourself up to all sorts of labels." ~Fal.

"Heck, I am not alone!" ~Clover

"And Merlin isn't an animal. Who said he was? And are we talking about Merlin or Myrddin?" ~Fal.

"Way to go for clarity, man." ~the Raven

"Knowing you're a nerd doesn't spoil anything much, though, Vanessa. Does it?" ~Clover

"I have a horrible feeling that we're going down the same path that we went down before." ~the Raven

"Well, that wasn't... Not really... It wasn't that bad." ~Kit

"You're only saying that 'cos it was your fault." ~the Raven

"Was not!" ~Kit

"Was, was, was, was, was, was, was, was, was, was, was, was, was, was, was. Was!" ~the Raven

"Was not." ~Kit

*screams* "My eyes!" ~the Raven

"Wha' about 'em?" ~Kit

"'ow green." ~the Raven

'Can I vote that you're all nerds?-Blake

'I like Dr Who though, and I can say Raxacorricofallapatorious. I love those episodes, they're so awesome.'-Ethan

'You can say what? Raxa...what??'-Blake

'Raxacorricofallapatorious. It's where the Sloveen came from."-Ethan

'Who?'-Blake

'They tried to take over Downing street.'-Ethan

'Huh? When did this happen?'

'Babe, not literally.' *rolls eyes* 'It's from Dr Who.'-Ethan

'And how would I know that? I don't watch it.'-Blake

'You must be the only one around here who doesn't.'-Ethan

'That's because it's nerdy. It's sci-fi, and I wouldn't be caught dead watching sci-fi.'-Blake

'Why? Because you're so cool? You spend practically three hours in front of the mirror every morning doing your hair. You wear eyeliner, and lipgloss, and mascara sometimes. That's not cool.'-Ethan

*Pouting* 'I just like to look pretty.'-Blake

Vanessa: "I'm not a Dr. Who fan. But I have read the Silmarillion! Good book, although the Hobbit still holds a special place in my heart. But, honestly, I don't really see myself as a nerd..."

Marc: "You are. Trust me. I'm pretty savvy about labels. I've had enough of them."

Vanessa: *shrug* "It doesn't really matter either way."

Marc: "And by the way, where do you get lipgloss and eyeliner in prison?"
