"I don't understand this "dragon." He is so because he's got a dragon head tattoo'd on his dick while the rest of him is somehow artfully body-painted up to give him a "decent dragonish look." ...Like...I can't even begin to imagine what would go where. I mean, I guess it's maybe a good concept when you're conceptualizing it beyond visualizing, but I basically hate it."

"Whine whine whine, moan moan moan, oh, god, am I reading Twilight or something? He's gorgeous, he's beautiful, but he's not, because he's Fae.
Bella's beautiful (chocolate brown eyes, clear skin, something something hair, etc.) but she's not because she's in Forks (something something Forks makes her look sallow, etc, etc, I don't remember)."

"Actually, at first it reminded me of Merry Gentry, but only in the abstracted sense, and then, looking at it again, as I am now (I backtracked because the RwV thing was too tempting), it reminds me of Twilight and Bella Swan. Lord have mercy on all our souls."

"Wait now that I think of it how the hell can Dick have a perfectly groomed beard he doesn't shave or trim? Does that mean his hair doesn't grow? Where did the beard come from, then? What happens if he cuts it? Like, you know, with Twilight VampMeyers. If their hair gets cut, doesn't it not grow back? What would they do then?
Racism, racism, racism. Sim and his body hair=tainted."

"Speaking of Sim's body hair:
No, of course Dick's not racist. He's not implying he thinks so. In fact, his best friend's got body hair! It's other people who think body hair is tainted, of course. Dick's all for body hair...on his friend (never on himself, of course, other than it being physiologically impossible for him to have hair on not-his-head)."

"Dick the dick strikes again. I'm pretty sure there was a much better way of stating this that doesn't make him sound like a little shit.
"I refuse to allow him to shave off any of his body hair because I’m not about to let him forget that he’s half-human, or that his mother was human. I figure that my family owes his mother that much, at least."
Not because racism is bad, but so we can remind Sim he's half-human."

"I'm really not sure what the correlation between Sim's "'tainted' blood" and getting a job in the porn company is. I mean, Dick's not tainted but he still works there. I don't know why "thanks" to the tainted whatever, he...Ah, I see. That was shitty sentence order. He's referring to the hung like a satyr thing, I suppose, then, implying that's thanks to his mixed blood.

"Dick, why is this so big an issue? We're humans. You're speaking as if speaking to humans. Oooh it's so titillating that the Sidhe would find this scandalous, but really, it's more stupid all around. And you're stupid for thinking this is something we're going to go
over."

"I couldn't even force myself to look at the scene. I found I could only skim through it just enough to get the gist but not enough so I was scarred for life by all the contrived "OMG!!!"s going on."

"Blah, blah, blah "sword-impostor" subplot (more on this in my review because I've already gone over this in the doc I'm writing my review comments on and really, there's much more there than can fit in this tiny little progress update pane)"

""The duchess on the other hand is wearing a gown woven from leaves and flowering buds, her skin a creamy white, eyes a verdant green, her hair a loose and barely tamed mass of locks, a deep brown and gray, like tree bark. It isn’t how she looks all the time."
Why is that italicized sentence there? What does she usually have dark skin, brown eyes, and, I dunno, purple hair or something?"
