Things Etched in Bark

Quotes (Open to public edits)

• "Hey, just a gosh darn minute. Just cause Winter Court isn't right here doesn't mean they aren't helping. Parthena saved me with a wave of her hand back other side of the Hedge and I didn't see you anywhere Bub." - Gilded speaking to another Summer Courtier, with giant finger to chest emphasis.
• (Whispered) "Some people walk through the forest and never really see the trees. But the trees..." (Softer) ""...they see everything. And they always remember." - Aurora Kippelin
• "She's all eyes and ears and patience and stuff" - David Burke

• "Everyone needs that person that talks them off the ledge when they get too close to the end. She is mine. Mine in this life and all the ones before it. It just took me this long to learn how to listen. " - Joss Whitney

• "But...the party can't be over, we haven't made out in the closet yet." - A stranger speaking to Parthena at a party in the Summer of 2007.

• "Very pretty eyes, do they melt?" - Ashe

• "She sees things sharper than most...which means they are more likely to cut her. Even flowers. It's quite sad that they don't sing to her like they do to me. Even if the song is horrible and tastes like tar." - Touch

Words Rustling in the Wind

Rumors (Open to public edits)

• Parthena and Joss are awfully close, aren't they? Watch them.
• She's a great actress and a skilled liar. I wouldn't be so ready to trust her if I were you.
