Inside him his mind was skittering like a frightened horse.

How he'd manage that... his mind skittered away from the obvious answer.

All this she might have borne if it hadn't been for... Her mind skittered away from bad memories.

His mind skittered away from that; it was too dreadful to dwell on.

His mind skittered away from memories of what had been done to him in the Pit.

The only way it made sense... Her mind skittered away from the thought.

His mind skittered over that to what he had become.

His mind skittered over the incredible events of that twenty-four hours or so in Coramonde.

He didn't like the way his mind was skittering from one subject to the next.

Even now her mind skittered away from the memory; it was not a safe thing to think about.
