Ashkit makes the Nuwishas identical-twin-kinfolk-identity, "Haley", look normal by comparison.

It might come back later, but when she spotted sweet little Megan, (helpful, caring Megan... selfless to a fault, here's the last twenty dollars I have please get something for yourself to eat Megan...) standing with her back against a building, red eyes, tears streaming down her face, coughing and wheezing as though she couldn't breathe properly... with NO ONE offering to help her even though she was in obvious distress and STILL trying to smile at people through it all...

!!John Logan Carver XI

-->"So far as she could remember, every trip or treat Felicia had bribed their cabal to indulge in had been something else all together in the end. A fishing expedition turned out to be a dive for treasure in a sunken ship, a trip to see the castles of Europe was actually a fairly transparent plan to pillage them... the excuses for why she had never just asked her fellow mages were myriad and difficult to hold down, though in the end the Verbena had surmised that the real answer there was that the Lady Wick simply could not help herself when it came to such artifacts, and was drawn to the musty old mausoleums that hid them." - Rebekkah Lovell

* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Though he has a rough exterior, doesn't really abide people all that well and is prone to what others might class as 'violent overreactions', Liams heart is in the right place.
