2 weeks after changing from the leader of the Outclaws to the Queen of the Sandwings

Thorn: FIGHT ME, YOU NERD *SS SLUT!

Smolder: At least try to sound slightly more sophisticated when you threaten someone.

Thorn: Oh, I'm sorry. I should ask; dost thou want to engage in a duel, my good b*tch?

Smolder: Somehow that's worse.

------------------------------------------------------

Thorn: I've come to a point in my life where I need a stronger word than f*ck

------------------------------------------------------

Thorn: What do you call breaking the law?

Qibli: A hobby.

Thorn:

Qibli: That I do not engage in anymore.

------------------------------------------------------

Qibli, entering the Stronghold: Hi Thorn

Moon, following: Hello, Queen Thorn.

Winter, also walking in: Greetings, Queen Thorn.

Thorn: Hi, adopted son and his two love interests who never seem to hang out at their own homes.

------------------------------------------------------

Qibli: Trauma?

Qibli: You mean the reason I'm fucking hilarious?

------------------------------------------------------

Thorn: At first, I didn't understand why people loved their kids that they have a mentor/mother figure relationship with.

Thorn: That was until I bought Qibli.

Thorn: If anything happened to him, I would first kill everyone in this room, and then myself.

------------------------------------------------------

Sunny: It's one school year. What are you afraid's gonna happen?

Starflight: Injury. Death. General calamity.

------------------------------------------------------

Thorn: Allow me. Being subtle is my specialty.

Thorn: [throws a brick at Six-claws]

------------------------------------------------------

Qibli: Thorn, how did you find me?

Thorn: Oh, I saw a huge sandstorm, and wondered "now who could that be?"

------------------------------------------------------

Qibli, t-posing in the Scorpion Den: Good morning, parental figure.

Thorn, not looking up from her tea: Good morning, problem child.

------------------------------------------------------

Six-claws: We need a distraction.

Thorn: Is anyone here good at jumping up and down and making weird noises?

Qibli, whispering: My time has come

------------------------------------------------------

Thorn: Hey, aren't you Qibli?

Qibli: You a cop?

Thorn: No.

Qibli: Then yes, I am.

------------------------------------------------------

*on the rare occasion Qibli visits Cobra in prison*

Cobra: I found two rats in my cell. I'm gonna name them after Sirocco and Rattlesnake.

Qibli: That's... Actually nice... I think

Cobra: They're named Dumb*ss and Salty B*tch.

Qibli: There it is-

------------------------------------------------------

Qibli: So, this may come as a surprise to everyone, but Moon and I are dating as of yesterday!

Thorn: Damn, I owe Six-claws 20 bucks... You guys couldn't have waited 1 week?

Qibli: Sorry, what now?

Six-claws: You two just earned me 20 bucks is what, so thank you.

------------------------------------------------------

Thorn: Qibli...

Qibli: Oh no, 'Qibli' in B flat.

Qibli: You're disappointed.

------------------------------------------------------

Thorn: Now is not the time to blame Qibli.

Qibli: Thank you, finally.

Thorn: There will be plenty of time to blame Qibli later, when this is resolved.

------------------------------------------------------

Qibli: Thanks, Mother.

Qibli:... Why is everyone staring at me?

Sunny: You just called Thorn "mother". You said "thanks, mother"

Qibli: What? No I didn't. I said "thanks boss".

Thorn: Do you see me as a mother figure, Qibli?

Qibli: No, if anything I see you as a bother figure, 'cause you're always bothering me.

Six-claws: Hey! Show your mother some respect!

------------------------------------------------------

Police Officer: You have the right to remain silent.

Qibli: I choose to waive that right!

Qibli: *screaming*

------------------------------------------------------

Sunny: If I run and leap at Thorn, she'll almost certainly catch me in her arms and spin me around.

Sunny: Hey, Mother! *runs at Thorn*

Thorn: Not now, Sunny, I'm holding hot tea!

Thorn: [drops cup of tea on the floor to catch Sunny]

------------------------------------------------------

Thorn, to Qibli: When you turn 7, people are gonna try and tell you to buy drugs or cigarettes because you can. No. You know what else is legal to buy at 7? Blades. Get yourself a damn sword. A big knife is also okay. All for your protection.
