"Hey, little mate! Where'd you come from?" - Tom, petting Tugga on the head.
"Not...one of your smartest moves, Tom. I don't think this mongrel likes we people. And how does it know how to talk?" - Anna
"Will that thing /really/ rip off my 'ead?" - Joe, taking a few steps back.

"I almost got attacked by a chihuahua once." - October "Or at least I thought so at the time. Turns out it had no interest in me."
"Ha! You humans just need to learn to be more in tune with nature." - Vallen
"Says the birdman! You aren't 'in tune with nature'; you are nature!" - October
"Tobie, how many times do I have to tell you about the birdman thing?" - Vallen
"Oh? What are you going to do about it?" - October says before shrinking back from Vallen's mischevious smirk.

"Um, guys. Could we calm down?..." -James. "And talk about something normal like, um, The 18th way to kill someone with a pen - like the one Cara is holding right now which she will not hesitate to use if I do not co-operate?"
Cara: "That's exactly right James. I also know 25 ways to kill someone with my bare hands."
James: "Or someone could help me get away from here..."

"Uh, James? Whose definition of normal is that? ....Certainly not mine...." - October

"Oh, I don't know. It'd be lovely regular stuff to most of the people I know. Rather enlightening, wouldn't you agree, Shy?" - Moni
"Actually, boss, I think he needs help." - Shy Carrie
"Let's leave it to those that know what they're doing. Time is money, remember?" - Moni

"Actually, knowing some self-defense might come in handy for me..." - October
"...Sure would help ME out..." - Vallen mumbles.
"Oh! Vallen! Low blow!" - October
Vallen merely shrugs and looks to the others to distract October...

"Hmph. My sword and armor are all the defense I need. Weak little vigints." --Ghierolme

"Humans, Ghierolme. They call themselves humans. And I beg to differ. It's--how do you say it?--all fun and games until someone breaks out the thaumic wave cannons." --Saerbilt

"Well, maybe, but by then you've kind of gone past self-defense training and kept right on going." --Ihaka

"Please god don't tell me you've found a way to bring this argument up again. I swear to the sunrise, I will stab myself in the actual eye." --Amilyr
