In which we talk in quotes

[Grehn|Skipjack]

Do you still remember
December's foggy freeze
when the ice that
clings on to your beard is
screaming agony.
And you snatch your rattling last breaths
with deep-sea-diver sounds,
and the flowers bloom like
madness in the spring.

Am I doin it rite??

[Passionario]

- Does he still have that rubbish beard?
- No, no beard. Well, a wife.

Lightning cracked in the sky of this desolate wasteland, yet despite the thunderclouds, which painted the sky the colour of a bruise, there was no relief for this parched land. The ruins of a dead city, smothered in dust the colour of blood, was revealed in each flash of light. And in those brief moment of light, things could be seen moving, things that moved in a way which was anathema to the human eye, all squirming and crawling and too many legs.

Some would have called this place Hell.

Fools. The depths of the horrors imagined by Dante could not match the abominations that dwelt in this place.

This was Australia.

SQUEAK

[Arnock]

The engines have been replaced by a substance resembling peanut butter.

[Arcand]

It's pretty much the most unpleasant part of the whole station, apart from the methane bathrooms.

[Passionario]

A self-contained world five miles long, located in neutral territory. A place of commerce and diplomacy for a quarter of a million humans and aliens. A shining beacon in space, all alone in the night. This is the story of the last of the Babylon stations.

[Arnock]

The Babylon project was our last, best hope for peace. It failed. But in the year of the shadow war, it became something greater: Our last, best hope for victory.

[Passionario]

- Stop this! What are you doing here!? What do you want!?
- We seek only to help you.
- To do what?
- To win the war.
- Really? Which war?
- I do not understand.
- This war, against the Nazis, or your war, the war against the rest of the Universe?

[aranil]

What have you done? You'll ruin everything!!!

[Snake-Aes]

I have this slow motion video drilling through the kangaroo that is totally awesome. I could send it to the Aunties. Aunty Zyuu really likes animals, so she'd really like seeing how they died, right?

[Arcand]

"My family's dead, ma'am."
"Oh! I'm so sorry."
"I killed 'em with an axe."

[Passionario]

"It was a sharp axe," she said. "Who says there's no mercy in the world? Just don't nod, that's all. And someone'll take you down to a nice cold coffin and I daresay fifty years'll just fly past and maybe you'll wake with enough sense to be stupid."

[Arnock]

Oh, he's a lumberjack and he's okay. He sleeps all night and he works all day!

[Passionario]

Some days are special. Some days are so, so blessed. Some days, nobody dies at all. Now and then, every once in a very long while, every day in a million days, when the wind stands fair and the Doctor comes to call, everybody lives.
