Epic NPC chat thread
some of the NPC's over by the tailor in Cap Au Diable say something about a PSP which isn't very good for a company that is so worried about trademark and copyright infringement.
Playing one of the RWZ arcs the other day, Faultline and Fusionette were helping me take out the AV.
[NPC]Faultline: /t Fusionette So, you wanna go to a movie tonight?

now thats quality!!! LOL
I came across a very entertaining chat sequence during one of Vernon von Grun's story arcs. The mission was to eradicate some Devouring Earth from an Arachnos base. In this base, there is a captive named "Becky, the Tarantula Mistress". The following is the Chat Sequence.
*Mob aggroed*
[Boulder]: Ah! Devour!
[Becky, the Tarantula Mistress]: Like, Ohmigawd! Villain! We are so gonna totally rock now!
[Greater Devoured]: Devour not topic of discussion!
*Upon rescue*
[Becky, the Tarantula Mistress]: Like, I have always SOOO wanted to meet you!
[Becky, the Tarantula Mistress]: And now we can like, totally fight together and all sorts of stuff.
[Becky, the Tarantula Mistress]: All the other Fortunatas were all TOTALLY like 'Tarantula Program? Eeew!'
[Becky, the Tarantula Mistress]: And then they were like, 'Like, what are you thinking, Becky?'
[Becky, the Tarantula Mistress]: And I was totally like 'I'll get to meet all kinds of interesting people and stuff.'
[Becky, the Tarantula Mistress]: And look, here I am, like, totally fighting alongside YOU!
[Becky, the Tarantula Mistress]: This is even better then when I worked with Silver Mantis.
[Becky, the Tarantula Mistress]: She's, like, totally uptight, until you get to know her, y'know?
[Becky, the Tarantula Mistress]: But this is sooo much better than that.
I was laughing so hard during that mission, it was hilarious!
The fight with Silver Mantis in the Statesman's Task Force is hilarious because of the way you could skew what she says to mean something totally different. Won't repeat it here for obvious reasons, but it's really funny taken out of context.
the whole S & M speach? oh yeah, thats awesome. if you have vent have someone read it out loud and it's even that much better.
Overheard while running down the street in St. Martial
MARCONE UNDERBOSS <to freak>: I really do not want to know why you need to buy a hacksaw and five gallons of hydrochloric acid.
um...yeah...

It's funny because it's not out of context at all. She really does like pain inflicted upon her and she really does want you to hit her harder.
Silver Mantis is probably the only NPC in the game to get close to pushing the "T" rating, but even then, it really doesn't go very far either.

Accidental wit from random civilians:
I had a 'witty' exchange with a PC I will call Rude Boy in Steel Canyon, along the lines of "Shut up" and "No U." As I was approaching the train station, I saw that Rude Boy had a female civilian on autofollow. This time in Local, I asked the NPC, "Is this guy bothering you?" The NPC replied, "Isn't Rude Boy awesome?"
Overheard of the Talos Island train platform: "All of Paragon owes a debt to The Master of Debt."

I noticed that just recently myself. I'm now curious which, if any, of the other NPCs are *in the in-game canon* supposedly being played by another player.
The terminology becomes difficult; we've got examples like the above, where a NPC that is presumably run under the hood like any other NPC is supposedly a bot pretending to be a player-run character; and we also have the MA custom characters which are mechanically a lot more like an AI-controlled player but are thematically clearly NPCs, and at an extra level of abstraction due to the MA itself as well (so they're NPCs in the game-within-the-game even).

In Faultline:
Headman Swordsman: TODO: Add Text
Laughed out loud. Either War Witch forgot to add someone's dialogue, or it's a clever tongue-in-cheek.
In Striga, random Council soldier with binoculars:
"Eye strain and carpal tunnel, gotta love watch duty."
Theres a Malta mish that uses dialogue from Impossible Mission (the C64 one...I think Its Malta at least)
I also always liked 'Those who live by the sword, get shot by those with guns' or somethign along those lines, usually heard in Steel Canyon

They occasionally forget to replace the place holders with actual text. Remember the Activist who stands outside City Hall in Atlas?
[NPC] Activist: Hey, this one only says 'TODO: Add Text'. Who printed this?! Take it anyway! I gotta get rid of them!
And on a side note, overheard in Kings Row:
[NPC] Bone Daddy: This shop made my quota this week!
[NPC] Bone Daddy: I'm gonna do a B&E on your face!
[NPC] Bone Daddy: Wait, that sounded wrong.

NPC] Student: He said something I didn't like, so I broke his arm. I'm not seeing that as aggressive. Think he'll still go out with me? He DID say he liked strong women.
[NPC] Student: I have no response to that.
