a piece of my heart. But hes gone now. We murderers are a practical bunch. Just like on TV. When the first Darrin left Bewitched, they got another. "

"She was beautiful. Good guess. "
"I told you: theres blind and theres blind. "
"Which means what?"
"Ill explain later. Tell me about your friend. Is she an expert on Hell?"
"Not hardly. Thats Lulu. Shes a friend I couldnt leave behind. "
"Can she fight? Can she find water in the desert? Navigate by the stars?"
"She can give you nipple rings and a nice labret. "
"Then why did you bring her? You know where were going. Every step of this journey is going to be over razor blades and landmines. "

"Shes not one of your little harem girls?"
