"Are you saying it's an upwardly mobile hive of scum and villainy?"

"A 10% cut on selling our loot for us? It's a deal. We'd lose more than that to the pickpockets."

_Not_ heard was anything like "What do you mean he rolled a 35 on his pickpocket check? A 10th level Rogue would need to roll a natural 20 to do that!"

I don't have those kinds of arguments with DMs anymore. What the 10th level guy was doing picking pockets for 10GP a go in marketplace is a setting fracturing question. My 10th level character's +16 Perception is ridiculous enough.

I did say "You know, some of the things they could pull out of my pockets go boom don't you?".

Kip (gunslinger): “I think they’re like me—good people who just happen to make bad decisions.”

Kip: “I think I made a mistake when I stole his gun.”

Kip: “I should probably get rid of the Stormtrooper’s gun.”
Amarynthe: “Well, you’ve already stolen it . . . and it’s not like there’s anywhere here to sell it.”

Arby (an R5 astromech droid): “Why do I do this to myself?”
Amarynth: “Because I own you.”

Arby: “There are explosives on my ship?!”
Amarynth: “It’s my ship.”
Arby: “You just fly the thing, I could train a monkey to do that.”
Kip: “I could fly the ship.”
Arby: “I rest my case.”

Amarynth: “These are the parts from my droid.”
Alejandro (merchant NPC): “An R5. Those are difficult to deal with, if they don’t have regular memory wipes.”
(Arby: “Oh, God, please wipe my memory!”)
Amarynth: “Yeah, I wipe him every so often, then reload his personality from some backup tapes.”
Alejandro: “He must hate you.”

Kip (to Halron): “Oooh, can I go with you?”
Halron (mercenary): “Are you going to keep your mouth shut?”
Kip: (thoughtfully) “No.”
Halron: “Whatever your answer is, is the answer I’m going to give you back.”

Amarynth: “Here’s some food.”
Kip: “But . . . you said not to eat anything or I’d end up in a bathtub full of ice.”
Arby: “What?!”
Kip: “Someone might drug me and steal my organs for sale on the black market.”
Arby: “Human organs are valuable?! Why didn’t anyone tell me this before?”

Player: "I love that this game has that skill listed."

"Difficult"? He's never met Chopper.

If anyone needs that explained, Chopper is the R5 Droid on the Star Wars:Rebels TV series. Chopper goes well beyond difficult or even the "surly" the R5 is described as in one RPG supplement. Something between "thuggish" and "sadistic" might cover it.
