Picking Graves

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.

Starting a kill streak 5

Dynamo 5

  • I don't like fighting teachers, it makes me feel weird.

  • Billy was right, the OSIC sucks.

Holliday 5

  • I took out the Sheriff.
  • I'm not going to jail.
  • Oh god, the law's after me, that's great…
  • Shouldn't you be tracking down a serial killer or something, not worrying about a high school kid?
  • Holliday's out of the picture.

Infernus 5

  • I stopped Infernus.
  • For God's sake Infernus, stop trying to light me on fire!

  • Lose the fedora.

Ivy 5

  • She was nice.
  • Feel kind of bad about fighting her.
  • Wish we were on the same side, Ivy.
  • I stopped the gargoyle.
  • That should get the gargoyle off our backs for a little bit.

Kelvin 5

  • I read a lot about him, he seemed cool.
  • I wish I wasn't fighting him, I have a million questions.
  • I bet my mentor would love to get her hands on that stone.
  • Took down the Ice Wight.
  • I might be able to help you, Kelvin, not today obviously because I killed you, but in the future.

Lady Geist 5

  • Oh that felt good.

McGinnis 5

  • Sellout.
  • Took out the Fairfax stooge.

  • The old ways are the strong ways, McGinnis.

Mina 5

  • Sorry, Rem.
  • He looked so cozy, too.
  • I'm gonna feel bad about that for a while.
  • I stopped Rem.

Seven 5

  • I wonder if he takes interns.
  • It takes a little more than lightning to scare me, Seven.
  • Your pursuit of power ends here, Seven.
  • So that's the guy who escaped Lost Whisper.
  • He won't be down for long.

Shiv 5

  • Whatever, Shiv.
  • I took down Shiv.
  • You're not pushing me around, Shiv.

Victor 5
