Quote #4

Amy Cahill thought she had the most annoying little brother on the planet. And that was before he almost got her killed. (3.1)

Check out the tight bond between Dan and Amy. How many times has your brother or sister almost gotten you killed in an explosion? Talk about being in the trenches together.

Quote #5

Amy did something completely disgusting. She hugged him. (6.107)

In case you forget with all the action-packed globetrotting, Dan's eleven. And a boy. So getting hugged by a girl, especially his sister, is really gross. (But also very sweet, no?)

Quote #6

Amy felt a twinge of guilt leaving the Holts behind unconscious, but they had no choice. (14.117)

By this point, they've left a bunch of relatives behind: they left Alistair in the burning mansion, the blown-up Starlings, and now the Holts. We don't think they're that guilty after all, putting the competition ahead of family. That's kind of how the Cahill clan rolls.
