Quote #1
For a moment, just a split second, I'm on Day's side. I glance up at Commander Jameson, who stares at me as if she's reading my thoughts. It makes me uneasy. (1.6.32)
June feels bad whenever she gets a twinge of sympathy for Day… but maybe it's actually her conscience speaking up and telling her that something is very wrong with the country she's supporting.
Quote #2
A stab wound. Only a serrated knife could have torn my skin that way. I narrow my eyes at Kaede. Weapons are not supposed to be a part of a Skiz fight… but this is hardly a fight where the crowd follows all the rules. (1.12.13)
Kaede definitely fights dirty in the Skiz fights, which goes against the rules and against what June expected. No matter, though—she'll still win fair and square even if these unexpected betrayals crop up.
Quote #3
Instantly I feel guilty. How can I laugh so soon after my brother's death? These two have a strange way of making me lose my composure. (1.14.40)
It's hard for June to feel like it's okay for her to go on with her life after her brother's death. After all, they were supposed to always be there for each other. How could she possibly be happy now?
