“…There are invisible eels at my feet.”<\/p>\n
“Like, good dancing?”
\n“The kind of dancing you do when you’re trying to step on a bunch of eels.”<\/p>\n
“It’s the black sword, right?”
\n“Yeah.”
\n“Then yes, I throw the teaset at it. Clearly that sword is evil.”<\/p>\n
“But I think it would be super-awesome to hit the invisible eels with the teaset.”<\/p>\n
“I jump into the pool after the teaset.”
\n“Do you swim?”

\n[several] “Ehhhhhhhh.”<\/p>\n
“Ehhh. It’s kind of hard to turn your ankle by stepping on a penis.”<\/p>\n
“Do I see Guy struggling?”
\n“Yes. Well, you see him doing some kind of calisthenics at the bottom of the pool…”<\/p>\n
“It is a nice symmetry that we removed a body and we added one.”
\n“Conservation of bodies.”<\/p>\n
“Note to self: get darts. Sedative darts.”<\/p>\n
“Hey. Does that feel like horse tranquilizer to you?”<\/p>\n
“Does anything move?”
\n“…Temporarily.”<\/p>\n
“So am I moving, or am I out of movement…?”
\n“You’re. Moving.”<\/p>\n
“It’s made of a bronze-colored alloy that is impervious to bullets.”
\n“Are you sure?”<\/p>\n
“There’s no attack roll, because you will hit the ceiling if you aim…”<\/p>\n
“I don’t think they’re coming back.”
\n“Do you think we should follow them? There is an awful lot of shooting.”
\n“But I’ve heard no counter-shooting.”<\/p>\n
“I’m convinced that Darryl is the ancient evil.”<\/p>\n
“The machine gun is not mounted yet.”
\n“It’s a dream of ours.”<\/p>\n

“The party also has an apartment with an evil sorcerer tied up in the closet.”<\/p>\n
“Tied up is not the right term.”
\n“Mummified in rope.”<\/p>\n
“I bought us some very, very good soup. And some silence.”<\/p>\n
“A .45, two extra clips, and paper pajamas.”<\/p>\n
“Ha! You admit it! This whole thing has been an elaborate sting to get you to admit it!”
\n“That I wanted to burn the painting down?”<\/p>\n
“What did he do?”
\n“He pulled out a wand and started chanting, and I shot him before he could finish.”<\/p>\n
“He said to break his wands. I broke his wand by shooting him.”<\/p>\n
“Were you there when he hatched, and he imprinted on you?”<\/p>\n
“I will put them in however many individual envelopes and mail them to France, if you’d like.”<\/p>\n
“I trust you more now than I ever have.”
\n“It is easy to trust someone who has been mummified in a closet.”<\/p>\n
“We’re the worst investigators ever!”
\n“You’re just now realizing this?”<\/p>\n
“We’re worse than Scooby DOo, and he’s a goddamned dog!”<\/p>\n
“Jason, you were the only one that was sensible in that whole group – and I never thought I’d say that.”<\/p>\n
