Jenks Said Quote by Kim Harrison
““Get out,” he said flatly. “I just got her normal again. Get out before you turn her into a sniveling, twitterpated…twit!” “Jenks!” I exclaimed, and Pierce put a calming hand on me. “That is my intent, Jenks,” he said gallantly, and I wondered if Pierce meant his intent was to leave or to turn me into a twitterpated twit.””
