They've got an NPC they want to keep safe, and they weren't going to leave with Maxsen. They'd rather take her on a jailbreak against ISWAT (the people they just got her back from) than leave her with Maxsen.

"Okay, so we've hit the enemy with electronic warfare, cyberwarfare, psychological warfare, offensive maneuvering, legal maneuvering and we've even shot them with lasers. Is there anything else we want to do to them before we let them slink away?"


"So there's this hole in the fabric of reaiity and we're supposed to travel through it?"

"Well, we don't have anything else to do."


"You need to make a roll v. the dangerous gravitic energies."

"I save myself with blue crystal energy and I didn't even know I could do that!"


"I summon all my blue crystal energy and loudly proclaim that There Is No Damn Goat!"


"You see large hulks of Ruby Empire warships half materilaized in solid stone on the moon's surface."

"Hm, looks like they didn't make their anti-goat rolls."


"Do you have anything dangerous on this ship?"

"Yeah, him in the purple robe and the bunny slippers. He's dangerous."


"Is my daughter safe?"

"Well, she's stayed home and hasn't travelled anywhere with us."

Never trust anyone in bunny slippers. ;)

Agent Holt (inside van, holding headphones to one ear): Agent Morsi, your mike is live. You may approach Person-Of-Interest now.

Agent Morsi: Ah bon après-midi, ma'am'selle. Euh, je vois que vous avez une probleme avec votre bâteau?

Agent Mensch (insouciantly): Hey, Morsi. Tell her you've got two friends in the unmarked beige van waiting to meet her.

Agent Holt: Hush.

It's been a while.

GM: "This isn't BattleTech and they're not UrbanMechs."

--

GM: "There's a large chest in the room. Easily large enough to hold a body. Well, a body like Toni's."
Owen (OOC): "That depends on how intact you want the body."

--

GM: "Contessa, that chest is magically held. Thane could spend all day trying and never get in."
Contessa: "I will relay that information."
<beat>
Contessa: "But not until after he tries for a while."

--

Thane: "When everyone walks away, I will pee on it."
<beat>
Thane: "I've marked it! It's mine."
Contessa (OOC): "It's a chest of reciprocity, when we get it open, it pees on Thane."

--

Owen: "That's plus five, so they'll pretty much hit unless they miss."

--

Contessa: "Crap! I need a dummy-cord for my whip!"

--

GM: "You could have used the charm at any time. You didn't have to fight [Shadowlord Cassim]."
Owen: "Yeah, but it wouldn't have been as gratifying."

--

Thane: "Don't bring me a healer, bring me the cook!"
Monk: "We're not bringing you the cook. We need him!"
Contessa: "Eating the cook will not bring you more food."

--

Thane: "By the time I'm done eating, I'll be fine."
Brother Kavon: "By the time you're done eating, you'll be dead."
Thane: "True."

James (OOC): "I'll call the number."
GM: "Parker Travel Agency, how can I help you?"
James: "I don't suppose you would know anything about a Code Conundrum?"
GM: "That offer expired seven days ago."
James and GM (OOC): Chuckling.
Other players: "What?"

From last night's session:

"Do you have the art skill?"
"I don't think so."
"Good! roll against it anyways!"

"I'm calling it now: The apocalypse they all saw coming was my fashion sense"

"For some reason my hacking skill is in the combat section"

That reminds me of our Star Wars game, where my Jedi, Jouraali said “Telling the person with lightsabers to ‘slice the computer’ means something different. Sorry.”
