''As noise returned to the landscape, the stilling effects of Scion’s light fading, Chevalier closed his eyes, listening. With the noise of the helicopters and distant fires mingling with the shouts and hollers of joy from the defending capes, he imagined he could hear the whole world cheering alongside them.''

->'''Flechette:''' And then Skitter waltzes in and... it's like, she slithers right past your defenses.\\
'''Yamada:''' How's that?\\
'''Flechette:''' I can't even put it into words. You run into her, and you can't even look straight at her without feeling your skin crawl. Like when someone's got something wrong with their eye and your own eye starts watering... only with her it's because of the bugs.\\
'''Yamada:''' Okay.\\
'''Flechette:''' And then she ''talks'', and she sounds so idealistic, and naive. I don't know ''how'' you sound idealistic and naive with a swarm of cockroaches and bees crawling over your face, but she does. And so you let your guard down. And then she starts making ''sense''. And that was the point where Sab- where Parian started lapping it up.
