Dmitri: How did none of you hear what I just said?
Illium: I've been zoned out for the past two and a half hours
Naasir: I got distracted about halfway through
Elena: Ignoring you was a conscious decision.

Just thinking about Dmitri being literally the best dad for Illium and basically raising him instead of his trash of a father.
And him being Naasir’s literal dad? Basically adopting him, and treating him as a son even now, when Naasir is like over 300 yrs old.
And Naasir thinking of Honor as his mom the moment he meets her, and Honor treating him as a son?
MY DADDY AND MOMMY ISSUES CAN’T HANDLE THIS SHIT
Naasir: once I called Dmitri ”dad” by accident
Illium: oh my god
Naasir: he started crying
Naasir had one, but he preferred to stay with Honor and Dmitri. Why would he want to be by himself when he could be with family?

how are you sane? perhaps because I was old enough before my imprisonment that I understand time passes as an inexorable river, bringing change with it.

Naasir: “What kind of strange person takes a vow [of celibancy] like that?”
Raphael: “There are the odd few. Scholars sometimes believe that cutting out physical distractions heightens the mind.”
Naasir: “In that case, I’d rather stay unenlightened.”
‘I hate vows,’ Naasir muttered. ‘Now that we’re mated, you can’t make any more.’ ‘How about if I vow to love you forever?’ A soft question. ‘That one is allowed.’ He nipped at her nose. ‘I love you, too, even if you keep taking stupid vows I have to break.’
