Shadowrun Cop campaign. The dwarf (dwarfish?) lieutenant is hit by a burst of armour-piercing bullets, bringing him to the threshold of death.

GM: "Remember that, if you die, your not-quite-ex-wife will collect the widow's pension."

Discovering Nico can "summon" fantastical creatures she's familiar with, the party buys her a D&D Monster Manual.

Nico: "An owlbear? What's next, a duck-beaver?"
Skye: "That's called a platypus."
Nico: "Well, if we're just making [stuff] up!"

Explaining what an IFF transponder is:
"I'm a dutch soldier. I'm a dutch hovercraft. I'm dutch powerarmor. I'm a dutch minigun, even though only americans would build such a rediculous weapon, but I'm a dutch minigun"


Power Armor Owner:"Just need to get some wooden shoes for the power armor"


Mostly in the Chat:

"I don't speak japanese so I can tell you what he said"
悪いボート
google translate tells me this means "bad boat"
Warui Boto
domo arigato warui bōto


"crossdimensional rats unlocked"
