So she became impulsive, scared by her inaction into perpetual action. When the Eagle confronted her with the expulsion, maybe she blurted out Marya\'s name because it was the first that came to mind, because in that moment she didn\'t want to get expelled and she couldn\'t think past that moment. She was scared, sure. But more importantly, maybe she\'d been scared of being paralyzed by fear again. ~Miles/Pudge on Alaska, pg 120-121

Quotes from the same author

There are at least two distinct meanings of 'hot': there is the, like, normal human definition which is that 'this individual seems suitable for mating'. And then there's the weird, culturally constructed definition of 'hot' which means, 'that individual is malnourished and has probably had plastic bags inserted into her breasts'.

'What's plastic?'
