- Ellie MacKay: Suzy, you were grown in a garden.
- Suzy Linden: [scoff] Yeah, well, maybe I want to be the weirdest one in my group of friends.
- Dream of the Endless: Considering the nature of this universe's many inhabitants, being grown in a garden makes you rather normal. You're sitting with a girl born of Celestial heritage, a girl with four parents, and a girl possessed by an essentially extinct race of alien. Being so mundane in this group makes you the odd one out.
- Suzy Linden: Huh... okay... and what's your story, goth kid?
- Dream of the Endless: I am the personification of sentient lifeforms' collective dreams. I am Morpheus, Lord of the Dreaming.

- Suzy Linden: What an odd way to phrase that.
- Dream of the Endless: Sorry to butt in here, but Loma Shade, what do you mean you haven't seen Destruction? Didn't my sister give you a quarter of a century to find him? In that whole time, surely you must at least have a lead of some sort? Or should that not be the case, then I question what it is you were doing.
- Loma Shade: Uh, well... you see... Rac and I did get sort of fused together inside the body of a serial killer. That was... fun. We went on a road trip with one of the serial killer's survivors, who Rac fell in love with while she was falling in love with another woman. Oh, then we died in 2003 and came back as a woman and-
- Dream of the Endless: Do you have any leads whatsoever?

- Loma Shade: Oh, uh... no... I haven't. [sigh] Okay, shoot... Well, when he rented the room, he asked not to be disturbed so... You know... [groan] Damn. [nervous chuckle] Don't tell him I told you, okay?
