Hot water Quote by Katie MacAlister
““This is insane, you know that, right? I think the dark power has warped your sense of what’s smart and what’s incredibly stupid.” “On the contrary, I’m being proactive and taking charge of things, dammit. You like it when I do that,” I told Jim. “I don’t like it when you go stomping off to prove something, and we end up in seriously hot water.” “I always get you out before you actually boil.” “Not always,” it answered, looking pointedly at its feet. “Will you stop with the toes? You have enough of them left.””
