Scorpius Malum

Wow, Arabella, I can’t believe you think it’s hot that Mitch is being so embarrassingly emotional.

Is this what women want out of a man? Do you want me to start saying weird and off-putting things like Mitch?

Corvus Malum

Watch it, Scorpius.

Orion Malum

I think it’s sweet that Arabella likes Mitch now that she knows he is secretly pathetic.

Corvus Malum

Are you both for real right now? Have you no loyalty????

Aran Alis Egan

I’m going to sleep. Everyone, forget everything that has been said tonight. Sweet dreams.

Corvus Malum

I will remember this night for the rest of my life.

Orion Malum

You know I’m just joking with you, my sweet Corvus—mostly. Sleep well, the loves of my life.

Scorpius Malum

Sleep tight.

I have somehow both gained and lost a lot of respect for my Ignis.

Corvus Malum

I am still taller and larger than you, and I can hurt you. But I would never because you mean too much to me.

Scorpius Malum

Please, I’m longer where it counts. Also, I will hurt you, and I will enjoy it. Sweet dreams, baby girl.

Corvus Malum

Only Arabella gets to call me that.

Orion Malum

Guys, I really like that we are opening up to one another like this. I want to get something off my chest.

Corvus Malum

Please share. I’d love to know.

Scorpius Malum

Please don’t. Tonight has already been traumatic enough.
