Beltira: What’s it like working with the Arends?
Polgara: Imagine working with completely civilised, responsible, and mature people.
Belkira: Okay.
Polgara: Now throw that idea out of the window.

Beltira: What’s it like working with the Arends?
Polgara: Imagine working with completely civilised, responsible, and mature people.
Belkira: Okay.
Polgara: Now throw that idea out of the window.
Sometimes a family is a pair of weird magic twins who finish each other's sentences, a grumpy old man who uses insults to communicate affection, an immortal miscreant with a thing for wolves, his badass immortal daughter, her supportive husband, her adopted sons and daughter in law, and the God who looks out for them. And that's okay.
Belgarath: Pol has a strong opinion on everything.
Beltira: What?
Belkira: No she doesn’t.
Belgarath: Pol! What’s the worst multiple of four?
Polgara: Fucking twelve!
Aldur: While I’m gone, you’re in charge, Belgarath.
Belgarath: Yes!
Aldur, whispering to Beltira and Belkira: You’re secretly in charge, but I don’t want him to feel bad.
Beltira and Belkira: Obviously.
Beltira: What are you looking at?
Belkira: Beldin has that extra forehead crease today, you know what that means.
Beldin: BELGARATH.
The other disciples: It's funny how you two are such good friends. Didn't he hate you at first?
Belgarath: Beldin hates everybody at first. It's his way of reaching out to people.
Torak: Hey! Wondering where I've been?
Aldur's disciples: No, we knew you were gone and it was nice.
Beltira and Belkira, reading prophecies alone in the Vale: Is there anything better than pussy? Yes, a really good book.
