Until you've been beside a man
You don't know what he wants
You don't know if he cries at night
You don't know if he don't
Where nothing comes easy, old nightmares are real
Until you've been beside a man
You don't know how he feelsOnce inside a woman's heart
A man must keep his head
Heaven opens up the door
Where angels fear to tread
Some men go crazy, some men go slow
Some men go just where they want
Some men never goOh, blame it on midnight
Ooh, shame on the moonEverywhere is all around
Comfort in the crowd
Stranger's faces all round
Laughing right out loud
Hey, watch where you're goin'
Step light on old toes
Until you've been beside a man
You don't know who he knowsOh, blame it on midnight
Ooh, shame on the moon
Oh, blame it on midnight
Ooh, shame on the moon
Blame it on midnight
You can blame it on midnight
Shame, shame, shame, shame on the moon
Blame it on midnight
Shame on the moon -
One of the things that drew me to SPI's DragonQuest was the fact that characters don't get harder to kill. They get better at killing things before they get killed.

Trese held a bottle of water out to Jason. When he accepted it, she hoist herself up on a desk. They looked out over the broken cityscape in silence.
“Tomorrow is the day,” Trese finally said.
“Yes.”
“It's a crap shoot with long odds.” Jason nodded. “Aren't you afraid of dying?”
Jason's chin sank. “No.”
Cocking her head to the side, Trese smiled. For a second Jason could imagine that her face wasn't scarred. That she was as beautiful as she had always been to him. “Then what are you afraid of?” She reached over and took his hand. He gave it willingly.
“Of not dying.”
“I don't understand.”
Walking quietly up behind them, Kris crossed her arms and leaned on Jason's shoulders. His hand came up and held her arm. Kris reached down and lay her hand over Jason's and Trese's. “Survivor's guilt. He's afraid everyone else will die and he'll be the only one left.”

When policemen break the law, then there isn't any law - just a fight for survival.

The marchin' band came down along Main Street
The soldier blues fell in behind
I looked across and there I saw Billy
Waiting to go and join the line
And with her head upon his shoulder
His young and lovely fiancee
From where I stood I saw she was cryin'
And through her tears I heard her sayBilly, don't be a hero, don't be a fool with your life
Billy, don't be a hero, come back and make me your wife
And as he started to go she said, Billy, keep your head low
Billy, don't be a hero, come back to meThe soldier blues were trapped on a hillside
The battle raging all around
The sergeant cried, We've got to hang on, boys!
We've got to hold this piece of ground
I need a volunteer to ride up
And bring us back some extra men
And Billy's hand was up in a moment
Forgettin' all the words she saidShe said
Billy, don't be a hero, don't be a fool with your life
Billy, don't be a hero, come back and make me your wife
And as he started to go she said, Billy, keep your head low
Billy, don't be a hero, come back to meI heard his fiancee got a letter
That told how Billy died that day
The letter said that he was a hero
She should be proud he died that way
I heard she threw that letter away ... -
My daddy was a cop on the east side of Chicago
Back in the U.S.A. back in the bad old daysIn the heat of a summer night
In the land of the dollar bill
When the town of Chicago died
And they talk about it still
When a man named Al Capone
Tried to make that town his own
And he called his gang to war
With the forces of the lawI heard my mama cry
I heard her pray the night Chicago died
Brother what a night it really was
Brother what a fight it really was
Glory be!
I heard my mama cry
I heard her pray the night Chicago died
Brother what a night the people saw
Brother what a fight the people saw
Yes indeed!And the sound of the battle rang
Through the streets of the old east side
'Til the last of the hoodlum gang
Had surrendered up or died
There was shouting in the street
And the sound of running feet
And I asked someone who said
"'Bout a hundred cops are dead!"I heard my mama cry
I heard her pray the night Chicago died
Brother what a night it really was
Brother what a fight it really was
Glory be!
I heard my mama cry
I heard her pray the night Chicago died
Brother what a night the people saw
Brother what a fight the people saw
Yes indeed!And ther was no sound at all
But the clock upon the wall
Then the door burst open wide
And my daddy stepped inside
And he kissed my mama's face
And he brushed her tears awayThe night Chicago died
Na-na na, na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na
The night Chicago died
Brother what a night the people saw
Brother what a fight the people saw
Yes indeed!The night Chicago died
Na-na na, na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na
The night Chicago died
Brother what a night it really was
Brother what a fight it really was
Glory be!The night Chicago died
Na-na na, na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na
The night Chicago died
Brother what a night the people saw
Brother what a fight the people saw
Yes indeed! -
Just found out she died last month.

“It is nice to see how the mighty can still be brought low by the many.” Nightwing heaved himself to his feet. He stepped over a body. “Still, you weren't supposed to be here. You weren't supposed to be involved at all.”
Between a shattered lens, an eye rapidly swelling shut, and blood, it was hard for Nightwing to make out details. “Who are you?”
“Merely a facilitator. A middle man. I am afraid with your involvement that you have sacrificed your prize. As fast as you can fly, I doubt you are fast enough.” The gun in his hand barked in succession.
Hand outstretched towards the gun, Nightwing yelled, “No!”
“He may not be,” Lightning dropped several bullets, “but I am. There's a saying, you take on one Guardian, sooner or later, you take on all of us.”
The skylight shattered and Pulsar dropped through. “You missed one.”
“Non-fatal and I knew you were coming,” Lightning said. “So, Mr. Facilitator, let's do this the hard way.” Lightning moved. The gun barked once and then was spinning in place on the desk. “Cops on?” He tossed the man across the desk, bound.
Pulsar picked up the gun. “Let's not have him thinking he'll have any options. Bressler is enroute.” He walked over to Steph. “Hi.”
“Oh, god, it hurts,” she said quietly.
“Only for a moment, Miss Michaels. Only for a moment.”

Men, for the most part can mend their ways only after they have made a mistake.

I was sitting all alone
Watching people getting off with each other
They were dancing 'cross the floor
Turning movement back and forth, they were lovers
One more lonely night for me
I looked up, what did I see?
Sexy eyes, moving 'cross the floor
Couldn't want for more, sexy eyes
Sexy eyes, getting down with you
I wanna move with you, sexy eyes
I got up and took your hand
And we both began to dance to the music
Ooh, your magic cast a spell
It didn't take long 'til we fell and we knew it
No more lonely nights for me
This is how it's gonna be
Sexy eyes, moving 'cross the floor
Couldn't want for more, sexy eyes
Sexy eyes, getting down with you
I wanna move with you, sexy eyes
No more lonely nights for me
This is how it's gonna be
Sexy eyes, moving 'cross the floor
Couldn't want for more, sexy eyes
Sexy eyes, getting down with you
I wanna move with you, sexy eyes
Ooh, sexy eyes, getting down with you
I wanna move with you, sexy eyes
Sexy eyes, getting down with you
I wanna move with you, sexy eyes -
Closing the book he had been reading, Jason watched Marlene lay their daughter down. She talked quietly to the babe and covered her with a blanket. Marlene came over, sat on the bed, slipped her shoes off, and slid under the covers with her back to Jason.
He set the book on the floor of the tent. Turning back, he asked, “Something wrong?”
“I'm mad at you.” He heard the teasing tone in his wife's voice.
Moving closer, his arm went over her. “What did I do this time?”
Rolling on her back, Marlene said, “You gave the first drawing you did of our daughter to Kate.” Jason smiled and kissed her. Accepting initially, Marlene put her fingers on Jason's mouth. “You aren't kissing your way out of this one.”
“You're wrong,” he said. “I gave Kate a drawing of Aaron and Sandy together. The first several that I did I gave to you.”
“Then why haven't I seen them?”
“Take it up with Beth,” Jason told her.
“Don't drag me into this,” Beth said through the wall of the tent. “Trying to sleep here.”
“Get over here, Bestie,” Marlene demanded with a laugh.
Beth groaned. A moment later she came around the divider. “What did I do?” Beth wore a thin t-shirt and shorts, leaving very little of her to Jason's imagination.
Patting the bed, Marlene invited Beth to sit. She did. “Jason's drawings of Sandy. Where are they?”
“How should I... I never gave you your book.” Beth looked hurt. “I'm sorry. It slipped my mind with you coming back.”
“What book?”
“Emily convinced Jason to do an art show while you were away. He had books printed. He did sketches for them.”
Marlene smiled. “What was yours?”
“You and me,” Beth smiled back. “What did you do with that one of me in blue?” she asked Jason.
“Gave it to your dad. Framed.”
“Can I go back to bed now?” she asked Marlene. Marlene sat up and hugged her.
“I guess so.”

Sprawling on the fringes of the city
In geometric order
An insulated border
In-between the bright lights
And the far, unlit unknownGrowing up, it all seems so one-sided
Opinions all provided
The future pre-decided
Detached and subdivided
In the mass-production zoneNowhere is the dreamer
Or the misfit so aloneSubdivisions
In the high school halls
In the shopping malls
Conform or be cast out
Subdivisions
In the basement bars
In the backs of cars
Be cool or be cast outAny escape might help to smooth
The unattractive truth
But the suburbs have no charms to soothe
The restless dreams of youthDrawn like moths, we drift into the city
The timeless old attraction
Cruising for the action
Lit up like a firefly
Just to feel the living nightSome will sell their dreams for small desires
Or lose the race to rats
Get caught in ticking traps
And start to dream of somewhere
To relax their restless flightSomewhere out of a memory
Of lighted streets on quiet nightsSubdivisions
In the high school halls
In the shopping malls
Conform or be cast out
Subdivisions
In the basement bars
In the backs of cars
Be cool or be cast outAny escape might help to smooth
The unattractive truth
But the suburbs have no charms to soothe
The restless dreams of youth -

You held my hand and then you slipped away
And I may never see your face again
So tell me how to fill the emptiness inside
Without love, what is life?
And anyone who knew us both can see
We always were the better part of me
I never wanted to be this free
And all this pain, when does it go away?Then every time I turn around
And you're nowhere to be found
I knowI gotta long long way to go
Before I can say goodbye to you
Oh, I gotta long long way I know
Before I can say goodbye
To all I ever knew, to you
To youFrom memory there is no hiding place
Turn on the TV and I see you there
In every crowd there's always someone with your face
Everywhere, trying not to careThen every time I turn around
And you're nowhere to be found
I knowI gotta long long way to go
Before I can say goodbye to you
I gotta long long way I know
Before I can say goodbye
To all I ever knewTo you I wish you everything
And all the best that life can bring
I only hope you think of me sometimes
Oh, and even though I feel the pain
I know that I will love again
The time will come
Oh, and I'll move onI gotta long long way to go
Before I can say goodbye to you
Oh, I gotta long long way I know
Gotta long way to go
Before I can say goodbye
Before I say goodbye
To all I ever knew
To all I ever knew
I gotta long way to go
Before I say
Say goodbye, say goodbye
But I wish you the best girl
Oh and all of the rest to you -

I mean... they have long been kinda part of the marvel universe? But not really, since almost nobody writes anything involving them other than the really unfortunate Starfox. Plus there's a baffling continuity problem where these are supposed to be the origin of the ancient gods and goddesses... except all of them are actually in the marvel universe as well so there's duplicates? Its a very odd choice for the MCU.
Sersi was an Avenger for a while.
