## Quotes

*"Sir, what is your name?"*-to Quagmire, after he shows signs of being a rebel.

*"Quagmire.... after this, come talk to me."*-Also to Quagmire

*"My dearest Aventurine, I am very sorry about my inability to reply for the past few days, my parents have been preventing me from communicating with anyone, but Allie has promised me that she will try and deliver this letter to you. For the past few days, my parents have been worse that usual, they usually don't try to restrict my contacts with other vixes, I suspect they don't approve of me seeing you. I promise I will resist their attempts to ruin our relationship with one another, although it's hard, as I can barely bother to eat some days. Life has been cruel ever since the day I was born, it feels like my pain and anguish will never end. The only thing I live for is the chance to stare into your eyes for another moment, and the chance to feel your embrace one more time. Sincerely, your love, Imperial."* -A letter to Aventurine.
