The Adventures of Dod

"I'd imagine all sorts of foolish articles will post about me--how I hate noble billies. They'll claim the most absurd things..." 

" There are only two kinds of people in the world. The kind that do stuff and the kind that always talk about doing stuff. Nobody's in between." 

"As you can all see, I'm a fortunate man indeed..." 

"I thought I told you to run, boy!  Apparently my legs work just fine."

 "Show them you're a Chantolli, my boy!  Show them!"

"You putrid, loathing, degenerate snake!" 

 "Yes, I'd agree this whole place has gone twirling mad!"

 "If The Dread is among us, then we must act normal.  Any suspicious behavior would certainly lead to a swift and fatal meeting with him!"

"My pies, Boot! Dilly didn't tell me he was a Coosing....How come I'm the last to hear about these kinds of things? I see he's sporting the ring. That's fantastic!"

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

"We need another quick mind around here these days--tough times with the likes of Dreaderious and his kind lurking about."

"I'd like strawberry jam on my toast."

"He's old enough to know what he wants, rich enough to buy what he wants, and powerful enough to win whomever he wants. He's got the tri-trumpous!" 

 "It's the best in all of us, the grand dream, the lingering hope of what my family trusts can one day become everyone's inheritance."

"Not so fast.  I know you. You're full of tricks. The moment I turn my back, you'll disappear for another three months." 

 "I'll have you for lunch. You're a nobody."

"You better hurry, Dod.  You've got to sign in or Mr. Clair won't let you duel--and you're up first in the level-five ring." 

"I'm serious about bad luck. It's funny until it happens to you..." 

"I almost didn't recognize you with a shirt on." 

"No worries, honey.  I can keep up with you if you help me."
