Amyra:Quotes

Quotes from the Chancel Amyra Nobilis Game

This is a selection of interesting (and other) quotes from the game, that the players think are fun enough to share...

Chapter One:
[Theresa] "But I think he'd rather have room to run around. He could get de...am I debating the mental health of a rabbit?"
[DanteE] "Yes. A God-touched cannibalistic potentially dinosaur-sized rabbit."
[Theresa] "Just checking."

From Chapter Two:
[Carrie] (Okay, Lesser Div of the professor's hopes, especially what he hopes to get out of the theory?)
[Hollyhock] (He hopes to be the Most Famous Mathematician Ever, to reshape the field, to be hip-deep in respect and money and loose women, and to answer once and for all the guys who Laughed At Him At The University.)
[Theresa] (Loose women? Math guys get loose women?!?)
[DanteE] (No, Math guys want loose women)
[Hollyhock] (Well, no. Do you want to be the one to break it to him?)

(The group is getting a tree--that will become Red)
There's about a 200' one here, it's the biggest and oldest.
Theresa takes off her shoes in the back of the car and gets out. Digs toes into the dirt with a happy sigh. "This beauty right over here." *heads over, looking Red over.*
Nobody, at the moment, is looking at it. There were some hikers that you passed on your way here, but they're some distance off.
...
Theresa takes a look around in Mythic.
Mythically, it's a big reddish-brown leafy giant, standing stock straight and fast asleep.
Theresa runs a hand on Red's bark. "Hello?"
...
The tree snores.
[Theresa] (*sniff* Excuse me?)
[Hollyhock] (Trees are immune to cleavage.)
[Theresa] (I know that. But I'm Plants!)

From Chapter Three:
[Carrie] "I think that in the near future our credibility would be best served by doing as Consequences suggested and building our corps of assistants."

"Wild's Lesson and the Bureau of Monstrosities at your service, sir."
[DanteE] "I'm guessing you're not forming a Punk Rock band."

Red: "May I have several cows, Theresa?"

Chapter Six:
[Theresa] (Well, it's just that we _could_ give him that big of a burger, if we wanted. It might even fall under Urban.)
[Carrie] (Soyburger?)
[Theresa] (Do you want to give a giant werewolf a veggieburger and hope he can't tell the difference?)
[JamesUrban] (In no interpretation of my estate would creating giant hamburgers fall under it. Mayor McCheese maybe.)
[Random Nerd] (Fast food definitely falls under Urbanization, I think.)
[Random Nerd] (Just like the Power of Horses could probably make a saddle with no trouble.)
[Random Nerd] (Or, for that matter, Brian could probably make a calculator, or Carrie make an inspirational book.)
[Brian] (Brian IS a calculator. *raspberry*)
[JamesUrban] (I can see that. I can see making a fast food place, but not just a giant burger.)
[DanteE] (James probably creates Starbucks by accident when he sneezes.

From the Mexican Madness chapter:
Courage: OK, let's review: my fellow Noble--the one being attacked--is cowering in my shirt pocket because of the noisy helicopter we just appropriated which I'll probably wind up flying with no prior experience into a dimensional vortex heading for Mexico to hunt down what may or may not be an excrucian chupacabra.
Plants: And you just had the best cheeseburger possible without magical means.
Courage: ...I'm OK with it. You?

From Weekend at Barakiel's:
Shadows: "Causality pretty much works the same way as on earth, if you're looking at the palace-world. It's a little different in the other world, but not too much."
Shadows: "Now, there's magic here, and things we've changed, but that's only in a few places."
Brian: "So, giant bunnies still make things go squish?"
Shadows: "Pretty much."
Theresa: "Some things are universal."
Carrie: (For everything else, there's MasterCard.)

DanteE: "Doesn't seem to be mutual. Unless this is all a joke... it's not near April Fools day on the cosmic calendar, is it?"
Conseq.: "I try not to study what the jokes of Imperators are like, for fear that I might discover that I am one."

• Theresa ponders that. "That is...incredibly true and deep."
  

Conseq.: "Or paranoid."
Theresa: (Noblity!) (in the tone of "Acting!')
Theresa: "That too."

Barakiel: "Ah, yes. Then I must ask you a question. You have only been raised above humanity for a short time, and yet you have still seen some of the War. What do you think of it?"
DanteE: (Uh, we're against it?)
Brian: "I honestly don't know what to think. The Excrucians seem to be acting somewhat randomly."
Theresa: "Warmains hit like a bitch, sir."
Barakiel looks at Theresa with all his eyes, for a moment. "They do, at that."

Chapter 11
Random_Nerd: (It counts as Aspect 3 if, when someone asks you how in the world you can manage it, 'I'm Batman' is a sufficient explanation.)
