ScarletSabre he/him Posted October 27, 2016 Posted October 27, 2016 Anyone want to share some of their favourite funny lines from books? Any kind of genre is fine, so long as it gets a chuckle! My current favourite at the moment is from Mogworld, where a sentient NPC in a fantasy game uses an alpha player to give him money for the abstract points in the player's logbook. Other adventurer NPCs see the logbook and demand the same, threatening him at swordpoint when he tries to explain he has enough money and just wants to fly under the radar. He meets up with his party in a tavern with huge pouches of gold and new clothes and they ask what happened, which brings us this gem. "I scowled. 'Is there a word for the exact opposite of a mugging?' " I just love that line for some reason ^-^ 2
Hood he/him Posted October 29, 2016 Posted October 29, 2016 This one is from 'Retribution Falls' by 'Chris Wooding'. "He could do things that powerful men would marvel at. Shortly before they hanged him". And this one too. "Ladies, gentlemen, we're out of here! Your boss is upstairs and only mildly wounded. Go help him if you have the inclination. You'll also notice that the house in on fire. Make of that what you like".
