Quotes

* When she was asked what are the similarities between her and Rikki, Cariba answered: "I think Rikki and I are both pretty honest as people, though I'm not as blunt as her. She can be a little harsh sometimes! Other than that, we both like to observe people before we decide if we like them or not though Rikki has a huge wall to break through before she'll call you a friend."
