Graves voice lines

When picked 8

• The dead have been making a whole lot of demands lately.
• This should make my mentor happy.
• Completing some eldritch ritual beats finishing my paper on Wuthering Heights.
• Of course I'll help.
• Yeah, like I'd miss my chance to summon a god.
• Well today is about to get a whole lot more interesting.
• You think I would miss out on the Maelstrom? I can't wait to get out there.
• Well, my teachers are always asking me to apply myself so might as well do this.

When swapped out 8

• I got physics homework to work on.
• Can't, my parents are dragging me to some lame party for their law firm.
• Yeah no.
• Helping liches are one thing, but I draw the line at unknowable forces of nature.
• I already got through PE once, I'm not running up and down the streets of Manhattan nonstop.
• Got work to do at Trinity Church, sorry.
• Wish I could help but phylacteries don't just show up on their own.
• I think there's safer ways to help my mentor.

Graves and Seven

1. Seven Be careful child…
2. Graves What, or I'll end up like you?
3. Seven Please, stay on the path you're on and you won't live long enough to end up like me.
4. Graves Don't pretend like you care if I live or die.
5. Seven I'm not invested in your survival, I just hate to see talent wasted.

Graves and Silver

1. Silver Well aren't you a creepy kid.

3. Vindicta Not different enough. There's still work to do.

Graves and Vyper

1. Vyper Shouldn't you be in class?
2. Graves I have the day off. Shouldn't you be jail.
3. Vyper I broke out during a parole hearing.
4. Graves You're full of shit.
5. Vyper You're right, there was no parole hearing.

Graves and Wraith

1. Wraith You're Darcy Graves right?
2. Graves How do you know that.
3. Wraith I keep an ear out for interesting people. You're the girl who speaks to the dead.
4. Graves I speak for them.
5. Wraith Same thing.
6. Graves It's not. The dead have people speaking to them all the time, go to a cemetery on Father's day and you can't throw a rock without hitting someone talking to a headstone.
7. Wraith You know that's not what I mean.
8. Graves You don't get it. It's not sweet for them. It's painful. They see loved ones hurting and they want to offer comfort, or advice, or… anything. To be their voice… it's...it's an honor.
9. Wraith I got a bookie who's dead and I need to know where he put the spare key to his apartment, can you help or not?
10. Graves Oh. Yeah, I can do that.

Graves and Apollo

1. Apollo You weren't in class yesterday.
2. Graves You noticed?
3. Apollo I notice everything. Were you sick?
4. Graves Do you care?
5. Apollo Of course I care. It's hard for you fight if you have a high fever or food poisoning or whatever.
6. Graves I was skipping class. I'm fine.
7. Apollo "I'm fine. Just undisciplined and negligent."
8. Graves You're such a prick.

Graves and Bebop

1. Graves Who made you?
2. Bebop My mother.
3. Graves You like her?
4. Bebop I'd do anything for her. I imagine you feel the same way about your parents.
5. Graves Eh. They're alright.

Graves and Calico

1. Calico That a lich hand?
2. Graves Yeah. You gonna give me a lecture on how it's a bad idea to carry it?
3. Calico I mean it is a terrible idea, but who am I to get in the way of someone's self destruction.

Graves and Celeste

1. Celeste Ever thought about leaving home for the circus?
2. Graves My parents have penthouse in midtown, what do you think?
3. Celeste Probably not.
4. Graves Got it in one.

4. Graves Lonely.

Graves and Dynamo

1. Dynamo I didn't think Blackmore was on break.

3. Dynamo You're skipping class?
4. Graves This seemed a little more important.

Graves and Grey Talon

1. Grey Talon How long have you had that hand?
2. Graves Do you have any idea how many people told me it's a bad idea?
3. Grey Talon How long.
4. Graves Why does it matter.
5. Grey Talon Just trying to figure out how much time you have left.

Graves and Haze

1. Haze Have you started thinking about your future?
2. Graves Right now I'm worried about living long enough to graduate.
3. Haze The OSIC could use someone like you.
4. Graves Not interested in being a sandman.
5. Haze And I'm not interested in you being one. But we have multiple divisions… and I think you might like being a Medium
6. Graves That might not suck.
7. Haze Think about it. You can give me a call later

Graves and Holliday

1. Holliday When the ritual starts, go find a playground to brood in
2. Graves A condescending cop. Shocking.
3. Holliday Snark isn't gonna keep you alive.
4. Graves What, and you are?
5. Holliday Against my better judgement.
6. Graves You're quite the civil servant
7. Holliday You shouldn't be here. It's not safe.
8. Graves I can take care of myself

Graves and Infernus

1. Graves Ya know there's rumors about you.
2. Infernus That right?
3. Graves Yeah. Supposedly you're with the mob.
4. Infernus I'm just a bartender.
5. Graves That's not what my classmates say.
6. Infernus I don't know if I'd trust the Blackmore Academy rumor mill.
7. Graves They play cards at Wraiths.
8. Infernus Don't know if I'd trust what she has to say either.

Graves and Ivy

1. Ivy You're the girl that talks to dead, right?
2. Graves Yep. That's me.
3. Ivy That's really nice that you help people. I bet your parents are proud of you.
4. Graves Yeah, they uh… they really are.

Graves and Lady Geist

1. Lady Geist You go to Blackmore Academy.
2. Graves The jacket kinda gives it away.
3. Lady Geist Correct, that's why there was no question mark. I see the money I give them isn't being used to hire quality educators.

Graves and Lash

1. Lash So which is it: Mommy issues or Daddy issues?
2. Graves Do you ever shut up?
3. Lash Oh it's both. Gotcha.

Graves and McGinnis

1. McGinnis So do you hate the world or just your parents?
2. Graves You think you're real clever, don't you.
3. McGinnis I mean. Yeah.
4. Graves You're not.

Graves and Mo & Krill

1. Graves Cool mole.
2. Mo & Krill His names Mo.
3. Graves Nice to meet you Mo, I'm Darcy.
4. Mo & Krill I think he likes you.

Graves and Paige

1. Paige Why are you carrying a lich hand?
2. Graves Why are you carrying so many books.
3. Paige You think that's the same thing?
4. Graves No I think it's none of your business, so how about you leave me alone. Thanks.
5. Paige You're kind of mean.
6. Graves I said thanks.

Graves and Paradox

1. Paradox I just wanted to let you know as a courtesy, someone from Paradox is going to come for that hand.
2. Graves Well, then someone from Paradox is going to wish they hadn't.
3. Paradox Hey don't kill the messenger.

Graves and Rem

1. Rem Do dead people dream?
2. Graves I think so.
3. Rem Why can't I talk to them?
4. Graves You gotta listen.
5. Rem But if I'm listening I can't ask 'em questions like what's your favorite color, and why does bread taste good, and do you think cats would smoke if they had thumbs?
6. Graves Life's hard sometimes.
7. Rem It is.

Graves and Seven

1. Seven Don't trust your mentor.
2. Graves Why, cause she's a lich?
3. Seven No, because mentors only teach what they want you to learn. They are craven and use the young to live glories they could not achieve on their own.
4. Graves She's not like that.
5. Seven Of course not. She sees potential in you that she's never seen in ages. You're special.
6. Graves You don't know what you're talking about.
7. Seven You're right. How silly of me.

Graves and Silver

1. Graves You like being a werewolf?
2. Silver I don't know.
3. Graves You don't know?
4. Silver I've never not been one, imagine if I asked you how you liked being a human?
5. Graves I'd say that humans are generally awful with moments of surprising compassion and that we all would probably be better off if 90% of us were replaced by cats.

Graves and Venator

1. Graves What kind of priest carries a gun
2. Venator One that's about to go to war. What kind of child traffics with the dead?
3. Graves One that - ugh I don't do purple prose. I do. I traffic with the dead. If you have a problem with that you shouldn't be here.
4. Venator No problem at all lass.

Graves and Vindicta

1. Graves So you were alive in the 1600s, huh?
2. Vindicta Correct.
3. Graves Bet that was a shitty time to be a woman.
4. Vindicta I was executed in the witch trials.
5. Graves Sooo, I'm not wrong?

Graves and Vyper

1. Vyper How much is that hand worth?
2. Graves Doesn't matter cause I'm not giving it to you.
3. Vyper You say that now because I haven't threatened you.
4. Graves I'm not scared of you.
5. Vyper That's good. Your tough. I like it. Seriously though, I'm gonna take that hand one way or the other the only question is if you're still breathing when it's all said and done.
6. Graves We're on the same team.
7. Vyper For now, sure. And when I don't need you anymore I'll take your shit and leave you for dead.

Graves and Wraith

1. Wraith Your parents are great lawyers.
2. Graves Yeah. They're the best.
3. Wraith Not a fan?
4. Graves You're not my therapist.
5. Wraith I could be a friend.
6. Graves I'm good.

Graves and Abrams

1. Abrams You gonna say you don't need me to protect you?
2. Graves You kiddin' me? These guys are trying to kill us, I'm going to take all the protection I can get.
3. Abrams You got more sense than I expected.
4. Graves I'll try not to be offended.

Graves and Apollo

1. Graves You're dad's a warlord right?
2. Apollo Kind of, yeah.
3. Graves How is someone kind of a warlord?
4. Apollo It's a cultural thing. You don't have a word in English for someone who wields the power of a governor and a general the way we do in Ixia.
5. Graves I mean we do. It's warlord.
6. Apollo I don't expect you to understand.

Graves and Bebop

1. Graves Look, the dead aren't very bright…if any of them get in the way, I'm sorry.
2. Bebop Appreciate the heads up, I'll make it work.

Graves and Calico

1. Graves I like your ugly cat.
2. Calico She's not ugly.
3. Graves Look, I think she's great - but objectively she's ugly as sin.

Graves and Celeste

1. Graves Your jacket would be cooler without the fringe.
2. Celeste You'd be cooler without the attitude.
3. Graves Don’t see that changing anytime soon.
4. Celeste The jacket's awesome.
5. Graves Sure.
6. Celeste It is.

Graves and Drifter

1. Drifter Hope you ain't squeamish.
2. Graves I spend half my free time in graveyards.
3. Drifter Looking at pretty headstones ain't the same thing as watching me rip out someone's throat.
4. Graves I'll be fine.
5. Drifter We're about to find out, aren't we

Graves and Dynamo

1. Dynamo Have you given any thought to college?
2. Graves I kinda just want to focus on necromancy right now.
3. Dynamo Why not go to law school, you can always do necromancy as a hobby.
4. Graves Are you a friend of my parents?
5. Dynamo Define friend.
6. Graves Oh for gods sake…

Graves and Grey Talon

1. Grey Talon That thing isn't your friend.
2. Graves You don't know her.
3. Grey Talon Lich's don't have friends.
4. Graves Oh, like you're some kind of expert.
5. Grey Talon One day you're going to realize who I am and know how stupid you sound right now.
6. Graves Take a nap grandpa.

Graves and Haze

1. Graves Surprised you're not trying to take the hand.
2. Haze Curator's care about things, Sandmen care about people. So until you become a threat to national security you're not my problem.

Graves and Holliday

1. Holliday So do they give you the pack of cloves when you become a theatre kid? Or was that something you brought to the table all on your own.
2. Graves I hope you get shot.
3. Holliday I'm making conversation.
4. Graves And I'm hoping you get shot.

Graves and Infernus

1. Infernus Hey Graves. I'm not gonna tell you how to live your life cause lord knows you don't wanna hear it…
2. Graves But.
3. Infernus If you ever find yourself over your head you can talk to me for help.
4. Graves We close now?
5. Infernus Look when I was around your age I needed help and someone gave it to me. It changed my life, and I just wanted you to know that I'm willing to pay it forward.
6. Graves Good talk.

Graves and Ivy

1. Graves You're Ivy right?
2. Ivy Yeah.
3. Graves Mr. and Mrs. Romero are grateful for what you did for them.
4. Ivy I doubt that. They were killed by Mendoza's goons.
5. Graves They know it wasn't your fault. They're just grateful that you caught the ones responsible

Graves and Lady Geist

1. Graves You know your arm's evil, right?
2. Lady Geist What did you say?
3. Graves Like, he won't stop screaming about what he wants to do to people.
4. Lady Geist You can hear him?
5. Graves His names Oathkeeper.
6. Lady Geist We will talk about this later.

Graves and Lash

1. Lash Hey kid.
2. Graves Lash, what do you want…
3. Lash That lich hand ever gives you trouble let me know and I'll kick the shit out of it.
4. Graves Stop being weird.
5. Lash I'm serious.
6. Graves Ok… I will

Graves and McGinnis

1. Graves What's it like being a corporate shill?
2. McGinnis I'm rich as hell, so pretty awesome.
3. Graves And all you had to do was sell your soul.
4. McGinnis More like leasing.

Graves and Mo & Krill

1. Mo & Krill Where did you find the lich hand?
2. Graves Van Cortland Park
3. Mo & Krill Just laying around?
4. Graves I mean it was buried in lead box, its not like it was left on a random bench.
5. Mo & Krill You know who it belongs to?
6. Graves Yeah. Me.

Graves and Paige

1. Graves You work at Little Alexandria right?
2. Paige I help out my parents sometimes.
3. Graves Why does your necromancy section suck so much?
4. Paige That is um… that is a complicated story.

Graves and Paradox

1. Paradox You know, we should work together… I imagine you could learn all sorts of secrets from the dead.
2. Graves I'm not profiting off of innocent people.
3. Paradox For a necromancer you are terribly boring.

Graves and Rem

1. Rem Do you like bowling?
2. Graves What.
3. Rem You look like someone who likes bowling.
4. Graves It's kind of cool.
5. Rem Yeah it is.

Graves and Seven

1. Graves I'm able to hold my own.
2. Seven I never said you couldn't.
3. Graves I know I'm young, but -
4. Seven I don't care how old you are. If you're competent you'll survive, if you're not you'll die - either way you're not my concern.

Graves and Silver

1. Graves You seem cool.
2. Silver I am cool.
3. Graves You always want to be a bounty hunter?
4. Silver No I always wanted to not be homeless so I decided to do whatever paid the most.
5. Graves Checks out.

Graves and Venator

1. Venator The lich is using you.
2. Graves You don't know her.
3. Venator They're all the same.
4. Graves Oh my god, someone religious is being closed minded I wish I wore pearls so I could clutch them.
5. Venator It's a real shame that you're not going to live long enough to learn the wisdom that comes with age.
6. Graves Don’t threaten me.
7. Venator Threaten you? I'm trying to save your life.
8. Graves Thanks for your concern. I can take things from here.

Graves and Vindicta

1. Graves You know, helping the dead is kind of my thing, so if after the ritual you need anything…
2. Vindicta Are you willing to lock people inside a burning building?
3. Graves No, that's insane.
4. Vindicta Then you can't help me.

Graves and Vyper

1. Vyper Nice jacket. Blackmore Academy?
2. Graves Yeah.
3. Vyper Got any friends with a single dad? Married's fine too, just takes a little more effort to bump off the old lady.
4. Graves Please don't talk to me.
5. Vyper Lighten up Graves, it's not like I'm talking about killing your parents. I mean. We could talk about that too
6. Graves NO.
7. Vyper Ok ok, patricide's off the table message received.

Graves and Wraith

1. Graves You know I've talked to a lot of people you've killed.
2. Wraith That I've killed or my people killed.
3. Graves People who are dead because of you
4. Wraith Just trying to get a clearer picture.
5. Graves The point is that they all say the same thing: None of them are mad at you. I don't understand why.
6. Wraith Because I'm fair. And when you treat people fairly they know when the hammer comes down they have no one to blame but themselves.
