AerynDo you understand any of those words?
Yeah, I watched all kinds of Star Trek. It's just the order that they're in.
AerynWas it easy to be a hero? Leave me behind?
You never think... you're gonna die. I didn't know.
[from a deleted scene where Aeryn and Crais say goodbye to eachother]
All the times that I have endangered your life. All the times that I have lied to you. Hurt you. Starting from the moment I declared you irreversibly contaminated.
AerynListen to me. That was the beginning of my life.
What does that taste like?
AerynYesterday.
Oh, well, nobody can compete with that. I am so much better dead.
Aeryn... I figure a relationship... the kind we're not having... is based on trust.
AerynI'm so sorry.
Yah. Me too. Cause you don't trust me. So, I don't know how to trust you.
AerynI think I've earned your trust.
I would put my life... in your hands... but not my heart.
AerynI'm getting a really bad bribe.
(to himself) Oh god, she's talking English. (to Aeryn) "Vibe."
AerynI'm not sure... I have the strength to miss next time.
I think... I'm just a bad shot.
AerynD'Argo, you should study this. [sings along with the television] "L, m, n, o, p." Just a few of their words. Just in case.
Chiana has already told me a few words. 'Yes', 'no', 'bite me', that's all I need to know.
AerynA cat?
Yeah, it's a pet.
AerynDoes he talk?
AerynWell. Merry Frelling Christmas.
Amen.
Now, before anybody decides to get clever, you should know I have multiple dead man's sensors from every culture on my ship and a few cultures I haven't heard of. My heart stops, we all go boom. My heart speeds up, it's boom again. Too hot, too cold, too happy, too sad, thirsty, hungry, bored, it's John Lee Hooker time. Boom, boom, boom. (to the Scarran contingent) And you try your little psychic trick, kaboom, and we're all pushin' up day-glo daisies.
Why do I doubt that?
Because you lack imagination.
What do you want?
"What do I want?" "What do I want?" I have not been chasing my ass all over the galaxy trying to pull out chunks of my brain. I have not been sneaking fembots and Skreeths into the places where I live. You want something! You. You want what's inside my head. You want what I know about wormholes. Because I can leap tall galaxies in a single bound! I can scorch planets with a wave of my hand, and you and you and you... you can't do jack.
That's not true.
Oh really? You command the stars to do your bidding? I know you can't. (to the Kalish) And you can't. (to the Charrids) And you can't. (back to Grayza) And you won't. But I have.
Then why are you here?
Because I... am an American. And what does an American want? Democracy? Capitalism! I want to sell out and settle down! For one day only, it's a blue-light special on aisle three! My wormhole technology, and a free set of steak knives, for all the tea in China. And anything you can imagine to pay me.
Pay?
Yes, pay! Cash!
He's crazy!
AerynIsn't it fun?
Welcome to my cold war. Now... what am I offered for all the powers of the universe?
What did you imagine for your life?
AerynService. Promotion. Retirement. Death. You?
This is exactly what I imagined. And a couple of kids.
