"Let me handle this."
"Click?? This doesn't come with ammo?"
"Why is your Zippo flame turning blue?"
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!"
"Trust me."
"I never get lost."
"He hit me for how much?????"
"They're only Inquisitors!"
"I try to move silently in Metal Gear..."
"I didn't find any traps!"
"Wonder what this button does?"
"Why is this man speaking in sign language?"
"There is no trap on the door, so let's open it."
"I have this Module at home, I know exactly what to do."
"Don't worry, the GM won't hose me"
"We'll untie the prisoners and lock them in the closet."
"Snipers can't hit a person at this dist..."
"I see how many solos?!"
"Don't worry, AI's don't attack unless they're provoked."
"Don't worry sir, we can handle it."
"You jump down and distract him, and I'll shoot him."
"Let's drop our weapons and talk."
"Okay!"
"Well ... I'll touch it again"
"It's OK, I trust her..." *Boom*
"Stand back you wimps. I'll kill it."
"Oops."
"Trap? What trap?"
"So what?"
"Don't be silly. If this was really the plane's self-destruct button, do you think they'd leave it lying around where anyone could press it?"
"Hmmm...the sign on the door says, "Airlock". I wonder what's inside."
"All right, we're in Arasaka's basement, the lights are dead, and now one has night-vision, I know, we'll yell and scream so we can locate each other by sound!!"
"I'm going to kill our captives anyway, and I don't give a damn whether the other goody-good PC's like it or not."
"Y'know, since our Techie's been so obnoxious, it would probably serve him right if we set his precious lab on fire."
"Yes, it's true I humiliated the GM in front of the debating team Wednesday, but he's much too broad-minded to take it out on my character."
"So I'm safely across the the hole? Whew! For a minute there I was worried that you might remember my encumbrance penalties."
"Well, I didn't much like this character, anyway...Here goes nothing..."
I swing the bat at the grenade so I can bat it across the room at the cops... Wait! Isn't that grenade contact-fused???"
"All right, I guess Ripsmash's right. There can't possibly be anything on the other side of this airlock. Why not open the damned thing?"
"Whistling sounds? Naw, they can't have a grenade launcher!"
"They can't possibly outflank us. We have radar and sonar!"
"Come on! Arrows versus Kevlar?"
"Me first, me first."
"Come on, we haven't found any traps so far."
"Diamonds ... Euro... Gold!!! Terry! Terry, we're rich, we're rich, we're fabulously wealthy!!!! Terry... Terry??"
"Let's walk this way."
"Hey folks, follow me, I remember the way to the building exit."
"I never get to have any fun!"
"You mean they get to use the critical hit chart too?"
"I'm invincible!"
"Don't worry. I know what I'm doing!"
"Stop!"
"No problem. That's easy!"
"Hey, I found it. I'm keeping it."
"I think we'll have to reason with him."
"Hah! I'm not dead yet. I'm only at Mortal 6."
"Oh, no. We're being rescued. How embarrassing!"
"Yeah, I know it's dangerous, but think of the improvement points."
"Don't worry. I've got a plan."
"They can't see me. I'm invisible!"
"I wonder what's in here?"
"He wouldn't try that trick again!"
"They don't look so tough."
"I'm sure there are no traps."
GM: "Five...four...three...two..."
PC: "I look for the light switch."
"Here kitty, kitty, kitty..."
"I'll open it."
"It seems easy enough"
"I think he can be trusted."
"Those noises are probably nothing."
"I'll pull the lever."
"Money!"
"Oh. He'll miss. Just look at my SP."
"Oh no! Let's go help them!"
"Run away!"
"I want to kill something."
"All clear, guys."
"Bob, you have any grenades left? Throw me one..."
"Again?!?!"
"He shot out my eye? Okay, I tear out my other eye and throw at him as a gesture of defiance."
"Maybe this wasn't such a good idea."
"I told him it was a bad idea."
"God will protect me."
"You wouldn't dare!"
"Hey, we're out! We're safe!"
"I'll try it on."
"C'mon! We're a team!"
"It'd be stupid to trap this!"
"I'll kick the door in!"
"It could be dangerous!"
"Here, hold this rope while I go down."
"Well, if you didn't belch, who did?"
"Uh guys? Hello? Anyone?"
"There's a smell of gas, huh? Probably nothing"
"Take off my armor and try to swim? Forget it! I worked hard to get this linear frame on. Besides, the GM never lets anyone die, he wouldn't let me drown, would he?"
"So what if he calls the guard? A backwater town like this can't have a very big militia."
"What do you mean, 'click'?"
"Then I'll hit him back!" {spoken at the start of a bar brawl.}
"I'm bored..."
"Maybe we should just kill him."
"You do know how to swim!?"
"I bar the door!" {Door opened outward.}
"I'll cover you!"
"I can't possibly miss..."
"Don't worry, I can hit him! I can hit him!"
"But he has to be our friend!"
"I go through the door... Wait, I check for traps!"
"I wonder what the black-and-yellow striped ring above the seat does?" (ejection seat)
"Uh, what does 'explosive decompression' mean?"
"Don't worry - I have Pilot +2."
"DO NOT OPEN."
"Easy kill."
"I've got you now!"
"Trust me. I know what I'm doing"
"I open the door and see who it is."
"I jump off the roof. He won't make me fail a stun test then."
"Your armor is too noisy. Wait here and I'll scout ahead."
"Whoever did this must be long gone by now."
"I really didn't know it was against the law."
"I don't understand. He should be dead by now."
"If we look brave and fearless, they won't attack."
"It doesn't look very fast; we can easily swim across."
"I wish we had a 10-foot pole. Oh well."
"Don't you understand? The odds will be even. If we can't see them, they can't see us."
"Who's bringing up the rear?"
"But lasers that big haven't been invented yet..."
"I've got better things to do than run your petty errands, Mr. Lundee."
"What?! I thought you said fifteen nomads."
"It'll be a short space voyage. Were only going to LEO. One week's worth of food and water will be enough."
"I won't fall in; I just want a better look at what's down there."
"Quit clowning around. Look, whichever one of you is doing that, it's not funny."
"A trap? That's exactly what we're supposed to expect. I think this GM is more imaginative than that."
"After what we took, he won't be able to afford an assassin."
"Wanna see my new bomb?
"Ha! That's the oldest trick in the book."
"Hey, Bill, shoot him, quick. Bill? Bill! Where's Bill?"
"Cover me."
"I think she's asleep."
"Look at the size of those tracks!"
"...well, that's the last of his AP rounds."
"Watch this."
"Well, if I remember correctly, it's -1 N R 4d6 8 1 ST 12mm. Hmm..."
*scribble* *scribble*
"I should defeat him around the 6th round and only be Serious. Ok, let's rock!"
"Did you see that guy's head? I wonder what did this."
"If you cut me down, I will only become more powerful."
"I bet it's just a holo."
"Well, at least I tried...?"
"I'll cut the red wire."
"Let's blow open the airlock."
"I jump from our car into theirs."
"You are the ugliest guy I've ever seen." (to a 7" dermal plated solo)
"What do you mean 'the bullets are just bouncing off'!"
"OK, pal, take your best shot."
"Let's rush them."
"There's no way they'll ever find us."
"What could possibly go wrong?"
"Him? What is HE doing here? I thought we killed him!"
"I throw a grenade at them." {in the middle of a weapons storehouse}
"Guys, I'm out of ammo."
"Does anybody in the group have Trauma Team?"
"Get him!"
"I give him the finger..."
"I put my AK under my coat and go to the subway."
"Shit, it's a minefield, leggit!!!"
"Let's split."
"They will flee in terror from my ACPA"
"Feel like surrendering?"
"It's only infantry."
while rolling dices "Please God, not an ammo explosion..."
"I'm sure reinforcements will get here on time. They promised."
"Say, what's that red dot on your forehead?"
"What kind of idiot would set boobytraps in his own home?"
"No, I wasn't reading the module. I was just looking at the pictures."
"Bloodhound and Killer programs in Mom and Pop's Grocery?!"
"Funny, she doesn't look like a cyberpsycho...."
"Black suited Corporate geek, huh? I throw my beer on his fancy suit!"
"No security force is that fast responding."
"I have a very bad feeling about this."
"I'm sure they didn't trace me."
"I throw the grenade..."
"We'll let him fire the mortar, he's not too good with a gun."
"Um... I charge the machine gun nest."
"I think I'll rob that place."
"Naah. He's the GM, he never kills PCs."
"No, you idiot, they can't hear us crawling around out here!" (yelled to another PC)
"So they have a tank...big deal! I have an M16! I can kill it."
"What do you mean they threw it back?"
"There is only two left..."
"Switch to 2nd Edition? Okay, what the hell..."
"Do something, schmuck!"
"Hey, wow, something that really does 'go bump in the night'
"One of these must be the right one... just start pushing buttons at random, we'll hit it."
"I just have to know what that bioware does."
"I tell the guard to go fuck himself, but I say it in a nice way."
"You are on my side, aren't you?!"
PC 1: "Don't shoot. I give up, but let this guy (PC 2) go, I took him as a hostage..."
NPC: "Okay, okay, but first of all drop all your weapons!" {said to PC 1}
PC 2: {taking out his Heavy Autopistol} "Shall I drop my weapon, too?"
"My Skill? ...Driving...Pilot AV...! Oh shit!"
"I'll try to fix it."
"I step back as far as I can." (In an elevator)
"I'll put my head in, and see what's inside."
"Beeping? O.K. I put it back in my holster."
"I'll hold my breath and run through the gas."
"I'd better carry the explosives, I've got demolition skill."
"Umm... Do I have a gas mask?"
"I knock at that door."
"I wonder what this does?"
"Remember that cyberpsycho that you HAD imprisoned down in the cellar? Well..."
"Hey, I bet I can do that better than you can!"
"This was supposed to be foolproof!"
"That nice techie from across town paid me 1,000 eb to deliver this box to you... I think - It must be some kind of clock!"
"Let me control this steering-wheel now."
"Don't worry, what are the odds of rolling a 1 on a d10?"
"It doesn't look like anyone is hiding in here."
"Aw, come on. I'm sure he's forgotten about that last time."
"I'll kill that sucker if it's the last thing I do."
"I hear a click-clack? OK, I'll do a fast peek, like in Miami Vice. Those guys never got shot."
"I bet this is not under current."
"I know how to handle a flame thrower."
"I'm so tired. I'll sleep during my watch tonight. Nothing will happen."
"I never fall asleep during guard jobs."
"I want my money."
"I wake up quickly!"
"Anything but a fumble now...."
"What do you mean I fumbled?"
"I am not getting short-changed by this guy."
"Ok, since I am going to die anyway, I pull the pins off all the grenades on my body..."
"You must be kidding! No?"
"Come on, do you really think they could throw a grenade through that small window?!"
"Hey, wake up, they're coming... For Heaven's sake, wake up!"
"No retreat, no surrender!"
"Hey scumbag, we'll do it my way, or I'm gonna have to kill you."
"Look, you're on top of a building, you're behind cover, he is firing full auto. There is no way he can hit you."
"Hey, she's female. Don't worry, this GM never has female villains."
"My character is being careful."
"Isn't the rope double-secured up there!?"
"Don't worry. This is just another empty room."
GM: "You encounter some Boostergangers."
Party: "Banzai!!!"
GM: "Hmm, didn't I say, there are like 80..."
"Don't worry. This ship won't sink with this little water inside."
"Come on, you cowards. It's only a computer!"
"Wait. Let me first look through the keyhole."
"What do you mean 'No reaction'? I hit him again harder!"
"He just fell off the 12th floor? I run over and catch him."
"Live and let live? Yeah, right!"
"Don't unplug it, it will just take a moment to fix."
"Let's take the shortcut, he can't see us from there."
"What happens if you touch these two wires tog..."
"Don't worry, it's not loaded."
"Are you sure its not loaded?"
"I want revenge!"
"Wanna have more?"
"I've beaten you once and I can do it again."
"I wake him up."
"I can kill anyone. Who is it?"
"2,000 miles? That's ridiculous - I can't believe someone would go that far only to kill me!"
"This does have a safety catch, doesn't it?"
"A child could have done it!"
"The odds were on my side."
"Those fools are wasting ammunition! They couldn't hit the broad side of a barn at this dist..."
"Don't worry. The Media's stupid. She won't know we're using her for a Polish Mine Detector."
"We're no wimps to hide inside at night!"
GM: "Uh. After killing one Arasaka Guard the others aren't really too fazed."
"Okay guys, what we need to do is ........roll really well!"
PC: "How long am I going to be stunned for?"
GM: (smiling) "...the rest of your life."
"Okay, God, you wanted it this way."
"Don't shot, it's me."
"HA! We killed all the hostages anyway!"
"Don't worry, he is the recon expert..."
"The window isn't open, so he couldn't have gotten out, he must be still be in here."
"I break the end of the oxygen cylinder off and aim it atthe enemy!"
"Okay, who turned out the lights?"
"It's daytime...it's gotta be safe."
"Let's all go in; he wouldn't kill the whole party at once."
"I suppose a good death is better then bad role-playing."
{PC is facing a big tank}
GM: "You can run away."
PC: "No, I can't."
GM: "Your COOL is high."
PC: "No, it ain't."
GM: "Yes, it is."
PC: "Used to be, My overconfidence is much higher now."
"Help me, I'm in deep trouble. Hey, Karl, it's your turn, you owe me a lot of money you borrowed."
Karl (smiling): "Not any longer, I guess..."
"I jump down into the river to see how deep it is."
"Okay, let's see if I loaded this thing right."
"Was that all?"
"Damn, I knew I'd forgotten something..."
"I didn't know there were rules for weapons breaking..."
"Reload? Nah, I've still got 2 shots in the mag."
"Well, he's got the arrow point cocked against my temple, so when he lets go of the drawstring, it should just stay there, right?"
"I try to outrun the cops."
"They can't shoot us at this speed!"
"What do you mean this is a one-way street?!"
"I put the live wire in my mouth and wade through the river."
"I should survive this."
"I'll stay out here in the light."
"They'll never expect it."
"What do you mean, 'Let's try a frontal assault on those Nomads'??"
"What do you mean, `He panics, grabs me by the head and throws me to the other side of the room'?!? This guy is supposed to be a scared, shaken, mentally unbalanced nervous wreck!"
"You mean I wasn't sleeping in my armor?"
"Who's got a Zippo?, I can't see!"
"Mayhap, I should not have done that..."
"I'll take this hit like a man to save my action."
"Hah! That's six! You're empty, mister!"
"Why aren't you recording our damage?"
*BOOM*
"Does anyone else have a Piloting skill?"
"What do you mean the warranty ran out?!"
PC (to GM):"I did not know you owned thatmany dice!"
"Only a idiot would stick his head out of that window...Hey Mark, stick your head out of that window."
"Okay."
(PC meets many Arasaka Guards)
NPCs: "Who the hell are you..."
PC: "I'm one of you, guys...er...joined last week."
NPCs: "Then why do you wear that Militech Officer's Uniform?"
PC:"It's not a uniform....its a sweater my mother knitted for me."
"Don't worry, I never fumble."
"Don't worry guys, I can't possibly fumble twice in a row."
"Scared? Us? There's ten of us and one of him! Chaaaaarge..."
"Maybe I should make up a spare character, just in case."
"It always works in the holos."
"You know, I'm actually starting to like this character."
"Power! More Power!"
"Look out! I'm coming to save you!"
"The laws of probability say that I should be able to climb this wall like that {snaps fingers}."
"We surround them, fellows... hey...?"
"I don't know if I'll make it through this round. Maybe I should have fled."
"I'm still pretty sharp. I only had a few beers."
"It's guaranteed against breakage!"
"I have to. He insulted me. It's a matter of personal honor."
"This one is hard to hit. No parry this round."
"I'll try again."
"Am I still bleeding?"
"We're using fumbles?!?"
"What do you mean I'm standing on a big X?!"
"No captain, there is no-one here, except for the computer speaking."
"What is it saying?"
"5... 4... 2..."
"Don't worry. I only fail to save on an 1..."
"You obviously don't know who you're dealing with."
"I'm sure that no one saw us."
"This disease is no lethal one."
"Where the hell did that assassin get a laser-guided triple-barreled crossbow?"
"There are how many Nomads in that courtyard?"
"Well, about 300. Want to stop and count them?"
"Well, I hit him twice. He's probably in bad shape."
"What do you mean there's no saving throw?"
"I'll follow him down the alleyway."
"Stop screwing around with all this sneaky stuff!"
"Wait 'till I flick my bic."
"Ah. Safety jackets are for pussies."
"Don't worry. I've done this before."
"Just see it as a proof for courage."
"I was sitting here first."
"You're a dead man, you hear me, a dead man!"
"This is my table."
"What do you mean I'll be damned."
"What are these three glowing red dots on your chest for?"
"Where is that damn assassin?"
"Man, this water feels really funny."
"Maybe you'd better not touch that?"
"Please press '#' to download your free navigation software upgrade."
"I can't jump to cover. If I would do so, they will fire at Tom, right?"
"Okay, so they're looking furtive, jumpy, and nervous, are carrying state of the art weaponry, and are heading down a tunnel - I'll attempt to follow them stealthily."
"Are the others all alright?"
"I don't know - they're all under water."
"Ok, I'll divert the guards, you all go in the back gate."
"I pull the pin and count to three!"
"No one would be stupid enough to ram another car at this speed!"
"It's only two vehicles and they are unarmored, we should be able to take them out before they can shoot back."
"I hit him, but I don't want to harm him."
"That bridge will hold our weight!"
"We can hear the ocean? But we're in a sewer!"
"Quick! Cover your eyes!"
"No one would booby-trap their own closet."
"If you shoot me, I'll drop the light and you'll be lost down here."
"I don't trust you."
"It's a bad idea to punch out rich people, isn't it?"
"You're aiming for his what?"
"What do you mean I am holding the LAW backwards?"
"What does it mean when your bio sensor goes red?"
"It means you are in a lot of trouble. Why, is yours going red?"
"No, yours is!"
"I stick my finger into the hole in that wall over there."
"Do you smell something. Is that gas?"
"Thank God it's finally over!"
"Awwwww, how cute! I bet you wanna play, don't ya boy!?"
"He wouldn't hold a grudge."
"Did you leave the door unlocked?"
"Quit playin' around guys. It's not funny! .... Guys?"
"Hey, GM, I've got half a pizza here. You can have it if you kill someone before the game's over."
"Nobody tells me what to do."
"If that's your attitude, you can't kill me!"
"I always enjoy killing these guys because they're the GM's favorite NPC type."
"I drank what???"
"Don't worry, I died last time we played, so the DM won't do it again."
"But I ran away...!!!"
"I think we can take it down."
"Come on, every evil corp HQ has a way out!"
"Nah...The game's just started....he wouldn't put a fatal death trap in yet."
"Did anyone tell you you had a bad breath?"
"Computer, end this program."
"Well...I'm unconscious. At least nothing can happen to me now."
"No one can order me around!"
"I knew I should have put more points in REF."
"GM, I wanna buy a cyberpig." *sigh*
"Ssssssssssss....snore....ssssssssssss...snore..."
"It's you again. Ha, wait some seconds, this time I'll kill you."
"This alley is a dead end."
"You won't get a second shot, so you better make your first one count, jackass!"
"Look, I'm a catburglar. I don't need a gun."
"Much will help much." (talking about explosives)
"We're in a tank. They would need a LAW to hit us."
"Okay, I'll spin around, brush away the gun in my back with my elbow and neutralize the guy with the knife with a backwards kick while throwing a grenade at the one with the shotgun."
"Look, I know how to make nitroglycerine!"
"Don't worry, nobody dies on the first encounter."
"What do you mean no more HC?!?"
"I laugh at your puny weapon!"
"Look, I've been in the military and I know what a Claymore mine looks like. That isn't it!"
"Badges? We don't need no steenkin' badges!"
"If Saburo doesn't like it, he can can just kiss my ass!"
"C-SWAT? Who gives a fuck about C-SWAT?"
"There's a disturbance in the Force..."
"Somebody stop me!"
"It worked in the movie!"
"They can't afford a Firestarter. That's a Dummy!"
"You can't kill me because I'm wearing Powered Arrrggghhh...!"
