"You just need to find a woman who is pathetic, like you."

"*How did you get to this weird dumb planet?"
"Ego found me in a larva state. Orphaned on my home world. He raised me by hand and kept me as his own."
"So you're a pet?"
"I suppose."
"People usually want cute pets. Why would he go on such a hideous one?"
"I am hideous?"
"You are horrifying to look at. But that's a good thing."
"Oh?"
"When you're ugly and someone loves you, you know they love you for who you are. Beautiful people never know who to trust."
"Well, then I am certainly grateful to be ugly!"
"Those pools, they remind me of when I took my daughter to the forgotten reaches of my homeworld. She was like you."
"Disgusting?"
"Innocent*"

"*I first met my beloved at a war rally, everyone in the village flailed about dancing except one woman, my Hovat. I knew immediately she was the one for me. The most melodic song in the world could be playing, she wouldn't even tap her foot, wouldn't move a muscle, one might assume she was dead.
"That does sound pretty hot.*"
―Drax and Peter Quill
