Default Re: Memorable Quotes.

(After giving an overview of the previous session)
Magnus (OOC): “I don’t see what the problem is. They’re just orphans.”
Queenie (OOC): “The problem is what wanted to hire one of them.”

--

GM: “It took a while for Seven to find [the stairs]. You’re assuming he’s a trained rogue.”

--

GM: “You’re not searching it. You’re RE-searching it.”

--

Ezekiel: “Why can’t they ever be summoning angels?”
GM: “Because then the plot wouldn’t need you.”

--

Fireball: “Hey, Magnus, I hear a disassociated cat-voice over here.”

--

GM: “Alcohol and Fire Mages is not a good combination.”

--

(after losing 6 points of IQ to foolishness gas from botched traps rolls and failed overconfidence rolls, and being dragged away by Queenie.)
Seven: “NO! NO! I can get it this time!”
Queenie: “That’s it, I’m breaking out the squirt bottle.”
Magnus: “Ugh, it smells like wet cat.”

--

GM: “The magebane dust is immune to magical fire. The foolishness gas is—.”
Queenie (OOC): “Flammable. Fireball kills us all.”
Magnus: “Yeah, it’s a flour-based gas.”

--

GM (OOC): “I want a trap that makes people smarter—so they can realize how much trouble they’re in.”
Ezekiel (OOC): “Or just, Delusion (I’m in a lot of trouble).”
GM (OOC): “It’s not a Delusion.”
Magnus (OOC): “It raises their IQ by the same amount it lowers their Fright Check.”

--

Queenie (OOC): “Smash-cut to Seven being tied up in the Japanese Bondage style.”

--

GM: “If they were labeled, they wouldn’t be ‘hidden buttons.’”

--

GM (OOC): “The party doesn’t need ‘Danger Sense,’ they need ‘Seven’s doing something’ sense?”
Queenie (OOC): “Yeah, the ‘It’s been too quiet, where’s Seven?’ sense.”

--

Ezekiel: “We’re going to be fighting Demon-possessed zombie orphans.”

--

Ezekiel: “Oo-oh. I’ll give up someone else’s IQ for ledgers.”

--

Ezekiel: “Any idea what the runes say?”
Magnus (OOC): “Do not step.”

--

(After a critical failure on an Analzye magic roll, that just caused Ezekiel to be stunned)
GM: “The rune blasts back at you with some stunning force, resisting your ability to analyze it. Or, at least, that’s your story and you’re sticking too it.”

--

Seven: “[The door] is neither locked nor trapped—so it means the trap is very bad and on the other side of the door.”

--

Queenie: “Is that a healing potion in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?”

--

GM: “And the Flaming Parade Balloon bursts into the room.”
Queenie: “Wafts, with dignity, into the room.”

--

[after another 5d, 3-hex Towering Inferno spell]
Magnus: “How much to maintain [Towering Inferno]?”

--

Queenie: “I like how all of our fights wind up with about ten minutes of cartoonish pratfalls—not always from the villains.”

--

GM: “Queenie gets into her spice rack and gets out some consciousness herbs—.”
Queenie: “Pepper.”
GM: “Or, as we call it, cayenne pepper.”

--

Cultist: “Who are you?”
Seven: “You’re worst nightmare.”
Cultist: “I doubt it—you haven’t seen what I’ve seen.”
Seven: “Well, that’s probably true.”

--

Queenie: “How many are down there, and should I bring muffins?”
Cultist: “At least four, and, unless Muffins are a metaphor for something else, probably not.”

--

Seven: “We’ve found today’s special friend!”

--

Seven: “What are those?” [pointing to Bleeders rising]
Magnus: “Kindling.”

--

GM: “Zeke, what would you like to do?”
<beat>
Ezekiel: “Survive!”
