He wasn't wearing his arm-guard, and Darian gasped and winced as Hweel stepped onto the bare flesh - but the owl barely closed his feet around the arm and half-spread his wings to keep his balance instead of maintaining it by gripping the arm. ❋ Lackey, Mercedes (1997)
There was a knife at his belt and another in each boot, thin and incredibly strong rope with a grappling hook coiled in one pouch at his side, a strangling-wire in another, and a darker version of his leather arm-guard strapped in place over his clothing for Hweel to land on in case he needed to. ❋ Lackey, Mercedes (1997)

Hym "They can just pick another target. A mall. Wait for them to go outside for recess. Find out what time the school lets out and spray the courtyard. But there is a through-line. It's very consistent. Armed guards aren't going to do anything. Gun bans aren't going to do anything. What type of people shoot up schools? Is it almosted entirely groups of people who are [demonized] for one reason or another? Why not just stop [demonizing] them? 'Well, because [demonization] is an effective tool for ideological control and if we don't demonize them people will imitate them or won't be incentivized be more like me.' There it is.

And if you're going to do keep trying it you're going to keep getting what you deserve..." ❋ Hym Iam (2023)
