I'm brilliant as well as skilled," he said modestly. "It's a great burden, all of that on top of my angelic good looks. But I try to soldier on as best I can.
looks
This is what it look like when it WORKS?
knights games looks
This is ridiculous. I look like the Games Workshop version of a Jedi Knight.
looks said donuts
I admit," Morgan said with another withering look, "it's no donut.
bunnies woods looks
Yeah, they look great, but that isn't a fantasy come true, Harry. That's a wood chipper in Playboy bunny clothing.
might looks said
He gave me a severe look over his spectacles and said, as if he thought the words were deadly venom and might kill me, "You are an untidy person.
sacrifice thinking looks
