…olen katsellut C-säteiden kimaltelua Tannhäuserin portilla… (via @vornaskotti)
Nephew: I’ve seen things you people wouldn’t believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I’ve watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in the rain.
Donald: It’s good to know that, now when it’s 3 a.m.
