Princess Mononoke
Moro: You know you could always jump, boy. End it all. As soon as you strength returns the mark will spread and destroy you.
Ashitaka: It feels like I must have been asleep for weeks. I had a dream that San was by my side, nursing me.
Moro: I was hoping you would cry out in your sleep. Then I could have bitten your head off to silence you.
Ashitaka: It's a beautiful forest. Are Okkoto and the boars on the move yet?
Moro: Yes. The boars are marching. The trees cry out as they die but you cannot hear them. I lie here, I listen to the pain of the forest and feel the ache of the bullet in my chest and I dream of the day when I will finally crunch that gun-woman's head in my jaws.
Ashitaka: Moro, why can't the humans and the forest live together? Why can't we stop this fighting now?
Moro: Th humans are gathering for the final battle. The flames of their guns will burn us all.
Ashitaka: And what happens to San? What's your plan-- to let her die with you?
Moro: Typical. Selfish. You think like a human. San is my daughter. She is of the Wolf Tribe. When the Forest dies, so does she.
Ashitaka: You must set her free! She is not a wolf, she is human!
Moro: Silence, boy! How dare you speak to a god like that! I caught her human parents defiling my forest. They threw their baby at my feet and ran away. Instead of eating her, I raised her as my own. Now my poor, ugly, beautiful daughter is neither human nor wolf. How could you help her?
Ashitaka: I don't know. But at least we might find a way to live.
Moro: *laughs* How? Will you join forces with San and fight the humans?
Ashitaka: No. All that would do is cause more hatred.
Moro: There is nothing you can do, boy. Soon the demon mark will spread and kill you. Now leave this place at sunrise. Return, and I shall kill you.

Oh dear.
I thought you were a pickle.
Alas, you were a jalapeño.

“Vampire Squid from Hell”
Vampyroteuthis infernalis literally means “vampire squid from hell”. Though technically neither a squid nor an octopus, this cephalopod shares traits with both. It lives up to 3,000 feet deep in the ocean. It has good control over its photospheres, spots that produce light. It can pull its arms over its head like an umbrella to hide from attackers, but if...
