“Ah, Auri, isn’t it fine if my tie is two degrees off center? And while it’s not particularly healthy, it is more convenient and easy to get takeout during late nights at my office... it does make me super happy to have you visit with a delicious home-cooked meal, though. I’m truly blessed to have such a thoughtful and sweet daughter!”
"Utterly deplorable! Look at the state of your shirt! If not for the structure that caring for a ward such as myself provides, I am certain he would end up living in his own filth and only eating take-out. He's the adult, but I'm the one who can't leave him alone!"
“Auri is my more book-smart daughter, but Vi is scarily perceptive. In some ways she’s harder to fool than Auri. She definitely gets it from Darcy, haha... I’m really glad she’s had the chance to grow up happy and healthy. I only hope she continues to do so... I don’t want to lose anyone else I love.”
"He's a dork. I don't really know what Mama saw in him when they were younger, maybe he was cool then? But he tries his best and he's not a bad dad. He even cried when I took his last name..."
"Darcy is, well, she's probably too good for the likes of me. Over the years I've grown to appreciate how extraordinarily easy to love she is. There is no feeling more reassuring than knowing that someone will unconditionally accept you, even if you've torn their life apart. A kind word whispered in the ear, a warm embrace. She’s a hero saving people in her quiet, understated way. I don’t know how she tolerates me... I’m never around, and when I am, I usually bring home problems and curses... not to mention, all that existential witch business... wait, why DOES she put up with all that?”
"Oh, we've certainly clashed in the past. I regret a lot. Cerule's seen the darkest and ugliest that I can be, and he did not recoil from it. The least I could do to atone for all that was to be there for him in the years following Ariel's passing... and well, more years passed after that and he never left. Our lives have grown into shapes that fit into each other perfectly. And, well... I'm very satisfied with that, teehee."
