XCorinne: -- said if the little bastard didn't value him properly he'd teach him. That was when he said I had to introduce him to Rafe. But I dunno whether he means to cozy up to Darwin or turn on him.
Murdoch: I doubt he knows himself. Faden don't plan. He just grab at the world with both hands an' whines when it don't give him candy. Rafe talked any more to Darwin?
Corinne: Not that he's said. Rafe mostly wishes the whole thing'd just go away.
Murdoch: Uh-huh. Here's where you earn your keep, girl. Tell Faden that Rafe's held a meetin' with me. You don't know what about, but they another meetin' set up here tomorrow night. Just before the place opens.
Corinne: ... You expectin' Darwin to show up, or Faden? ... Right. Marde, they must be done already. Here the prick come. You better -- I fell.
Murdoch: The hell you did. What else has he done, Corinne? I had any common decency I'd get you out of this here an' now.
Corinne: But lucky you, you with les loups. Don't fuck around, Murdoch. Or you really mean to blow a perfectly good plan by fightin' Faden here an' now? Over a girl who ain't even gang? Choose quick, frere. What's more important to you, decency or you people? I thought as much.
Faden: Now what's a pretty like you doin' all by herself, hmm? You shoulda stayed, Corinne. Watched the fun.
Corinne: You get what you wanted?
Faden: Eh. Gettin' damn sick of playin' the prove-youself game with these morveux (snotty brats). Your boy's all right, though. Not too clever. Ain't settin' his dumb little hoop too high. He'll do just fine. An' you keep doin' what you told, gonzesse (girl), you'll be just fine too.
Corinne: Yeah, well. Before you get too settled in, they somethin' you should know....
Murdoch: I doubt he knows himself. Faden don't plan. He just grab at the world with both hands an' whines when it don't give him candy. Rafe talked any more to Darwin?

The Spiderforest Comic of the Week is Riven Sol -- one of the few comics I can say I was eagerly following from the first page. Danforth Station -- where masked guards prowl the corridors and children disappear -- is a dangerous place, and so Silence thinks he's doing Carter a favor when he takes her under his wing. But the new girl on the station has secrets of her own, secrets that may make her better equipped than anyone to handle Danforth and its Medusa guards. Just watch out for her family....
Elaine -- the comic's author -- has written more than ten novels, and it shows in her snappy dialogue and excellent characters. If you like your science fiction with a dose of creepy and a dash of romance, Riven Sol is the comic for you. Go! Read!
