1. What he says: “I only have eyes for you.”
What he's really thinking: "I am Zool, lord of this realm, owner of souls. Mine is a brutal desire: to scourge the earth and drown its surface in blood. To all those who oppose Zool, take note—I am the end of worlds and the beginning of eternal nightmares. All who dare stand in my way shall face the torment of galaxies."
2. What he says: “Sometimes I just need some space.”
What he's really thinking: "Zool is ripe with powerful juices. Raw energy courses through my veins like liquid stars, swelling my muscles to immortal proportions. Mercury is in alignment with Alpha Centauri, and for the next 39 hours Zool is at his strongest. Beware, humans, as I take my first few steps as your new God."
3. What he says: “I’m not really into labels.”
What he's thinking: "And who are you, puny man, to think you stand a chance against Zool, Master of Chaos? With a flick of my finger I could rip the very skin from your skeleton and propel your hut into the ocean. With a wave of my hand I could lift a mountain from the soil and spin the forests into spheres. With a mere—wait, is that a gun?"
4. What he says: “I feel like you spend a lot of time with your friends.”
What he really means: "I'm vulnerable, even if I put up a hard exterior. I need to be comforted and showed that I'm special just like everyone else. I don't want you to stop hanging out with your friends, but I'd like to join you sometimes, or plan some specific date nights, just the two of us."
5. What he says: “I’m happy with the way things are right now.”
What he really means: "I can't believe you shot Zool. Zool's bleeding out. I'm seriously growing faint over here. Oh man, this really hurts. Ow. Ow. Can someone help me up? Zool's sorry, if that means anything anymore. People mess up; I ain't perfect. Throw Zool a bone, man. Like you never took a chance and fell on your face? Cold. Real cold. I also don't think I'm ready to move-in with you."
