When are you gonna do something about Medusa out there? You’re pushing her too hard. If you’re not careful, she’s gonna end up like you. And we can’t have a kitchen with two of you in it.

Soul mates. It’s extrememly rare but it exists. Sort of like twin souls tuning into each other. Apparently even in death.

My name is Ramona Q. I’m nine and three months, and no matter what my sister Beezus tells you: I’m not a pest. My dad says I just have an overactive imagination, which does come in handy.

_Just a side note … Ramona and Beezus were originally just ancillary characters to Henry Huggins, the male protagonist of the Beverly Cleary books. I remember reading them back when I was nine or ten…_

In play:

We have fishing, hunting, and a charming view of the sunset. The only problems are the pests. You see, most places have mice or mosquitoes. We have… dragons!

A dragon, a dragon,  
I swear I saw a dragon,  
A green and seething,  
Fire breathing mon-ster-ous in sight!  
With eyes of red and lions head  
And wings as dark as night  
He has a jaw of gleaming teeth,  
He’s fifty feet in height!

It’s true, it’s true  
Oh what are we to do?  
It’s true, it’s true,  
He’ll break us all in two!

Listen, when you’ve been tickling the ivories as long as I have, you’ve seen a broken heart for every drop of rain, a shattered dream for every falling star.

I love them and they answer me with pain and torment. Be it sin or not sin, they have betrayed me in their hearts and that’s far sin enough. I can see it in their eyes, I can feel it when they speak, and they must pay for it and be punished. I shall not be wounded and not return it in kind! I’m through with feeble hoping! I demand a man’s vengeance!

I know you will never entirely comprehend this, Raymond, but you must believe I did not know it would be you. I served them. I fought for them. I’m on the point of winning for them the greatest foothold they would ever have in this country. And they paid me back by taking your soul away from you.
