• Greetings and salutations!
• What do you mean by that? What's your angle?
• The great cogs of the Eternal Alchemy continue to turn. How are you this fine day?
• Work is proceeding apace on my next generation of earthmovers.
• We may need them at the reactor site soon, but don't cut corners. Build to last, I always say.
• Are you currently looking for krewe members with a background in synergetics?
• Not at the moment, but those types of positions tend to be very fluid. Check back later.
• Wanna play Arcane Council?
• Okay. I'll be the councillor and you be a poor research student who needs funding.
• No way. If you're the councillor again, I'll be Zojja warning you about the Inquest threats.
• Have you noticed anything odd about the Peacemaker golems lately?
• Odd funny, odd strange, or odd deadly?
• Strange, bordering on frightening. It's as if previous commands are still active.
• I thought you were going to enter your latest golem design in the Snaff Prize.
• It wasn't ready yet. I need to perform further testing. Maybe next year.
• That's what you said last year. I think you're afraid of Zojja.
• Ahh. I'm glad to be taking a break from krewe duty. The lab has been harrowing lately.
• We've definitely taken a hit to our safety record.
• It's the price we pay for being on the cutting edge.
• Eela's gadget collection has everything from a sonic plasma blade to a thaumawave oven.
• That's nothing. I got the miniature thaumawave oven. Only five hundred ever made.
• Ooh. I heard you could cook cured, processed pork in one of those. Impressive.
• Any—explosions—you—may—experience—are—perfectly—normal.
• Please—remain—docile—(brzzt)—peaceful!
• In—case—of—emergency, do—not—panic. Carry—on!
• Citizenry—temperament—is—within—acceptable—range. Carry—on!
• Do—not—congregate—beyond—approved—limits. Thank—you.
• All—threats—to—Rata—Sum—will—be—neutralized—with—excessive—(brzzt)—commensurate—force!
• Is your latest device ready for deployment?
• I need additional time for stress testing. The reaction is not quite stable yet.
• Stress testing is best done in the field. Find some live subjects and move this project forward.
• When is the Arcane Council going to rule on your proposal?
• Impossible to say. The Snaff Prize put all other business on hold.
• I worry that our work at the Hydrone Unit may shorten our lives.
• At least we don't have to handle unstable energy sources or test new weapon systems.
• Swamp gas and poisons may not be explosive, but they're just as deadly.
• So, I said to him, "Those aren't altostratus clouds. They're altocumulus."
• Was he even able to formulate a response?
• He flung a bag of cloud seed at me. Struck me between the ears. I was deaf for a week.
• Opticalium is definitely the place for an aspiring synergetics student.
• You want me to dirty my hands with practical applications?
• Theorems may advance knowledge, but they do not advance your earnings.
• When you get tired of eating noodles and broth, look me up.
• My home... Vandals. Thieves. Everything is ruined!
• Report—all—incidents—to—your—councillor...in—triplicate.
• All—reports—will—be—processed—in—due—course. Carry—on.
• What's happening on the council these days? Why do they give the Inquest so much rope?
• Inquest simply knows how to play the system. They're smart and slippery.
• Why, when I was on the council, we could discern truth from chicanery.
• Funny, I remember you funding a slew of failed weather-control experiments.
