The Adventures of Dod

 "WE'RE TAKING RAUL DOWN!"

"Dod, you must be made of something more durable than I am. It's your lucky feet, I guess." 

"...all of Raul should be proud of the way you fight.  You're the best I've ever trained.  Your father would be proud." 

"Quiet as a mouse.  What would he have been shouting about?" 

"Please, please, please be alive."

"Oh, it shouldn't be that hard.  There's always something for getting something else." 

"He does stuff like that....You ought to come back to Twistyard with us.  It's more fun being a Coosing now that Dod's around..." 

 "Ludicrous!  Are you going to let me out, or not?"

“Too much truth in the hands of a liar is more dangerous than a world of lies told to the truthful. When people like The Dread are mostly honest, they’re more deadly.”

 "You can't tell a soul....I was--uh--someplace I shouldn't have been, and I may have heard--"

"She's going to get you one of these days.  You better watch your back...if you prank her wrong, she'll plunk you with her sword...only to discover later that you were kidding."

"...don't be quick to judge.  Beneath every wiggling glove is a hand, and it's behind the mask where the true man lies.  He has his good reasons, I'm sure: We know Dod." 

"Mentioning Boot's father like that was completely heartless and unforgivable.  Only a rock with no emotion whatsoever would concoct the things he said." 

"Oh tick-blood!" 

 "...how many trees need to fall before it's not just the wind?"

"You've lost your freshy-mind, fool!  Now we're both out of the game!" 

"Our safety?  My little finger!  I think there's a lot they're not saying." 

"Why be mad when you can choose to be happy?" 

"My goodness, son!  The word's not Dossum!" 

"Fourteen? You're hardly weaned. Where's your mother? I should expect she is worried stiff that you've escaped your crib....Perhaps you've lost your way..."
