Meeting Grune
[A woman in green is laying in the casket.]
Chloe, Norma: Who... Who is that?!
Norma: She's awake...
???: Good morning, everyone.
Senel, Will, Chloe, Norma, Moses: ...Good morning.
Will: What's your name?
Grune: Grune...I think. Does that sound right?
Will: Don't ask me...
Norma: What are you doing in a place like this?
Grune: Oh, you know, the weather was so beautiful, and before I knew it...
Norma: How can that possibly lead to winding up at the bottom of the Man-Eating Ruins?!
Moses: You were catchin' some shuteye with this place just crawlin' with monsters.
Grune: Oh, they were all very nice.
Moses: Liar!
Chloe: This whole thing is so obviously suspect, I don't even feel like wasting our time with more questions.
Grune: Oh, come now. Let's not worry about little things, okay? They're...little.
Chloe: I'm getting a headache...
Reading Relares
Jay: Hmm...
Will: Did you figure anything out?
Jay: There's writing on it, but I can't read it.
Moses: Ain't so smart, after all, are you?
Jay: Hearing that from you makes me want to die.
Grune and Underwear
Norma: You better believe it! And, now, I have a question for our friend Nessy to answer!
Senel: (...Nessy?)
Norma: Tell us, Nessy! What color underwear is G-Girl wearing today?
Chloe: Wh...what are you thinking?! You're making fun of Nerifes?!
Norma: Oh, nice timing, C! Way to play along!
Grune: Let's see, today they're... Oh...I seem to have forgotten them.
Norma: What?! O...okay! Thanks, you've been a great crowd! This is the Laugh Brigade, signing out!
[Norma pushes Grune into the next room. They come back out shortly.]
Norma: Um. Hi.
Senel, Jay: (...)
Senel vs Moses in the Arena
Shirley: You can do it, Senel!
Chloe: Coolidge, don't let your guard down!
Curtis: Go get 'em, brother!
Moses: Hey, where's my cheering section?!
???: Come on, Moses! Go out there and die!
Moses: Okay! You can count on--Hey! Who said that?!
LATER
Moses: Jay, I could've sworn I heard you yellin' at me to die.
Jay: It's good to see you all again.
Moses: Hey! I'm talkin' to you!
Norma's wish
Norma: "Hook me up with a drop-dead gorgeous bod!"
Moses: What kind of a wish is that?
Norma: Don't sound so disgusted! It's a really serious problem for me! I haven't been growing at all lately! I'm not asking for a G-Girl level, but a C at least!...So to speak...
Chloe: Leave me out of this. ...Besides, if you're going to shoot for someone, surely it should be Grune, not me.
Norma: *Sigh*
Chloe: Wh...what?
Norma: This is why I hate dealing with amateurs! You don't get it! You don't get it at all! Do you have any idea what it's like to be flat as a board?! Huh?! It ain't easy, you know!
Chloe: Ah--
Norma: G-Girl's beyond human! She's the ultimate work of art! A miracle to behold! In the realm of the gods! Do you think I could win against a god?! She's like every man's dream! You know what I am? I'm every carpenter's dream! So me and my pancakes have to shoot for something more realistic. That's you and yours, C, so shut up! Even I know there's no way for a girl with mosquito bites like me to match G-Girl at this point short of the Everlight and that's way gone! You should really take pity on the less endowed, you insensitive clod! How can you not understand the complexities of the female heart, C?! Unbelievable!
Chloe: A...all right, all right. Calm down.
Motivational Speeches
Grune: This is beyond the world of men. There is nothing you can do.
Shirley: Even if that applies to the battle, this is still our world.
Shirley: So we'll be the ones to protect it.
Jay: It doesn't suit me to leave it all up to someone else.
Senel: I will protect what I care about. If that means fighting, then I'll fight. I can't run away.
Senel: I can't sit by and just watch people die.
Senel: To protect my friends, I would stand against any opponent.
Moses: Me too.
Moses: I'll fight any enemy to protect my family!
Grune: You will all die miserable deaths.
