“I am fucking charming!” Dex shouted, his entire face going beet red. “I am the most charming motherfucker you will ever know, so kiss my perfectly perky ass!”After some consideration, Sloane cocked his head to one side and shrugged. “I’ve seen better.”“Oh, now you’re insulting my ass?”

Charlie Cochet,
Hell & High Water
“Cael, come on. Stop licking the dude. That's gross."Letty let out a snort. "Please, like you don't lick dudes.""That's different," Dex explained with a grimace. "None of those dudes were Ash. Besides, last time I checked, Ash was allergic to nuts.” ― Charlie Cochet, Hell & High Water
“Sometimes the amount of stupid in this world confounds me. I swear some of these citizens are evolving backwards.” ― Charlie Cochet, Hell & High Water
“Now how do I access Google?”Was he serious? “Why do you need Google?”“When don’t you need Google?”He was serious. “How about when you have a powerful, multimillion dollar government interface linked to numerous intelligence agencies across the globe right in front of you.”Dex squinted at him, his lips pursed thoughtfully. “So… is that a no on Google?”“Are you on medication?” ― Charlie Cochet, Hell & High Water
“I apologize. Hi, I’m Agent Sloane Brodie, your Team Leader. I enjoy reading, cozy nights in, and the soothing sounds of classic rock. I also like to browse the Internet for funny cat videos, but deep down, I think I’m more of a dog person.” ― Charlie Cochet, Hell & High Water
“Dex arched an eyebrow at him before he winked down at his dick.“Don’t worry, fella. He needs a minute to take in all the awesome.” ― Charlie Cochet, Hell & High Water
“The force is strong with this one.” Sloane laughed. “All right there, Yoda.” “Please,” Dex scoffed. “We both know I’d be Han. You can be Luke.” “Okay, Han.” “Ash would be Vader. Ew, Ash would be your dad.” ― Charlie Cochet, Hell & High Water
“Try using your inside voice. Less awkward.” ― Charlie Cochet, Hell & High Water
“And you managed to pick up on all that while being hung upside down by a fellow agent, getting yourself beat to shit by your new Team Leader and tormenting your baby brother in the showers?”“Yes. I would have had more, but you know, I was momentarily distracted by all the soapy six-packs.” ― Charlie Cochet
“Even if there was the slightest probability Cael was right, Ash was so deep in the closet, he was taking Aslan's place in Narnia.” ― Charlie Cochet, Blood & Thunder
“Dex lowered his voice, growling as his fingers moved the puppet’s little paws. “Hi, I’m Ash. My hobbies include shooting things, shooting things, and uh, shooting things. Oh and I like fish.” ― Charlie Cochet, Hell & High Water
“Threat Level Fuchsia. Fuchsia!” ― Charlie Cochet , Blood & Thunder
“Yogi was fast on his heels as Dex sped through the lounge, down the busy corridor, and past the training bays. “Excuse me! Coming through!” Shit, shit, shit! Who’d have thought Yogi would like Cheesy Doodles as much as he did?“Give them here!” Yogi growled.“Go find your own pic-a-nic basket!” The deep feral growl he received in response was most likely a “no.” ― Charlie Cochet, Hell & High Water
“Where the hell were you two?”Sloane and Dex produced a candy bar from their front breast pockets in unison, answering simultaneously, “Lunchroom.”Ash looked genuinely horrified. “You two are spending way too much time together. Seriously, that was creepy as fuck.” He snatched their candy bars.“For the psychological trauma you’ve just inflicted.” ― Charlie Cochet, Blood & Thunder
“You’re one of those annoying glass half-full guys, aren’t you?”“I’m more of a full glass kind of guy. Who wants half of anything?” ― Charlie Cochet
“If you had to choose between coffee and—”“Coffee.”“You didn’t know what I was going to say,” Sloane laughed.Dex shook his head. “Doesn’t matter. Coffee.”“Me or coffee.”“Coffee.”“Wow. Okay, sex or coffee.”“Coffee.”“Your brother or—”“Coffee. I would totally trade my brother for a good cup of coffee.” He took a sip with a contented sigh. His gaze shifted to Sloane. “Okay, maybe I wouldn’t trade him in for coffee. Although….” He pursed his lips thoughtfully then shook his head. “No, you’re right, that would be wrong.” ― Charlie Cochet, Blood & Thunder
“As Calvin helped him to the stairs, Dex braced himself. “So on a scale of one to diva, how pissed off is Sloane at me right now?”Calvin winced. “I’d say…. Mariah Carey pissed.” ― Charlie Cochet, Blood & Thunder
“Sloane shook his head. He pushed Dex from behind, guiding him into the lobby,“Get in the damn truck before I shoot you.”“You know, you should try yoga. Find a way to channel all that aggression.”Sloane gave Dex another push. “I have found a way. It’s called shoving my foot up your ass.”“That doesn’t sound very relaxing.” ― Charlie Cochet, Hell & High Water
“Ash went over to the closet, and Sloane maintained his stoic expression. There was no way Dex would be hiding in the closet. It was too obvious. Ash opened the door, looking unimpressed. “There’s a fuckwit naked in your closet.”Dex looked up at Ash with wide eyes. “This isn’t what it looks like. I dropped some change, it rolled under the closet door, and when I went to pick it up, my clothes fell off. True story.” ― Charlie Cochet, Rack & Ruin
