*ForcedDancePartner: In the third volume there is a grand meeting of the various Families that rule the FeudalFuture. Main character Forever Carlyle is dancing with her love interest Joacquim when Dr. Jakob Hock, her father's ArchEnemy, forcibly cuts in and asks her to dance in a way so that she cannot say no without being rude. Worse yet, Hock apparently uses the opportunity to touch her and leer at her throughout the dance, leaving the FourStarBadass who has seen plenty of death and battle feeling deeply disturbed afterward.

-->'''Malcom:''' It's ''funny''. We're here, talking about what we ''remember''. Talking about ''Leah'' and ''love'' and ''family''...like it was ''yesterday'' and not the better part of a ''century'' ago...and yet ''none'' of you seems to remember what it was ''like''. So permit me to ''remind'' you. It was the ''end'' of the ''world''. ''Authoritarian'' regimes spreading ''unchecked'', ''plutocracy'' instead of democracy, Vox Populi not simply silenced but ''gagged''. ''That'' was why there could never be ''revolution'', you see? It wasn't that the wealthy had all the ''guns'' and all the ''governments'' and all the ''technology'' and all the ''law''. They owned the ''communication''. They owned the ''information''. But instead of ''using'' their power for others, instead of -- at the ''least'' -- covering their asses like Carnegie and Rockefeller had done, they just took more and more and ''more''...and because they ''owned'' the communication they were ''applauded'' and ''emulated'' and ''worshipped'' for it. The bastards ''told us'' they ''owned'' our future and fuck the rest of us, told us we ''couldn't'' do a damn thing ''about'' it. Climate and ''world'' on the brink of ''collapse'', and every ''check'' or ''balance'' castrated or destroyed or bought. Not an ''extinction'' event, not the end of a ''species'', not the end of ''civilization'' but of ''life''. Guiding us toward absolute ''annihilation''. ''That'' was the ''world'', and ''nobody'' who could stop it ''would'', and those who ''would'' could ''not''. Forcing us to stand ''witness'' as everything, ''everyone'' we knew and loved was ''sacrificed'' on the ''altar'' of their ''greed''. They could never havecbeen ''overthrown''. So they had to be ''undermined''. I had a plan. I did what the plan ''required''.
