Drosselmeyer/Stereotypes

The Kindly Ones "You only live once, but if you do it right, once is enough." "Life is a fight, but not everyone’s a fighter. Otherwise, bullies would be an endangered species." "I hate and fear snakes, because if you look into the eyes of any snake you will see that it knows all and more of the mystery of man's fall, and that it feels all the contempt that the Devil felt when Adam was evicted from Eden. Besides which its bite is generally fatal, and it twists up trouser legs." "We must not look at goblin men, We must not buy their fruits: Who knows upon what soil they fed Their hungry thirsty roots?" "Arguing with anonymous strangers on the Internet is a sucker's game because they almost always turn out to be—or to be indistinguishable from—self-righteous sixteen-year-olds possessing infinite amounts of free time. - Oh wait. You mean the OTHER kind of Troll..." "All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others." "Storytellers are the most powerful people on earth. They might not be the best paid-- but they are the most powerful. Storytellers have the power to move the human heart-- and there is no greater power on earth." "It is not enough to be industrious; so are the ants. What are you industrious about?"

The Prodigals "Nothing a Down monad charged flashlight can't handle, I'm sure." "Met a few of these out in the Deep Wyrd." "More'n a few of these folks run in the family. Brethren of Aether, mostly." "Thankfully, I know my Gematria." "Every great journey starts with but a single step." "Strange monads. Literally!" "O valiant cousin, worthy gentleman!" "Full of the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly."
