ost_uid0]Whoo, what a lovely [b
ost_uid0]birthday[/b
ost_uid0] present, Zeke! New fivers--just what I was [b
ost_uid0]wish[/b
ost_uid0]ing for! :bigsmile:
"Prayer" was great all the way through. Several parts that stood out for me:
[quote
ost_uid0]Crichton: What definition of "critically-acclaimed" are we using here?
Scorpius: Those who failed to acclaim it are in critical condition.
Rygel: They're taking too long. I say we leave immediately.
Chiana: How can you say that?
Rygel: I always say that. What's the situation again?[/quote
ost_uid0]
[quote
ost_uid0]Crichton: And I don't want to know what that thing is.
DRD'Argo: Shut up.[/quote
ost_uid0]
This one cracked me up:
[quote
ost_uid0]
Scorpius: Very well. On an unrelated topic, may I borrow your gun again?
Crichton: Okay. But what could you possibly be planning to --
Aeryiana: GAK!
Crichton: Scorpius, you unpredictable fiend![/quote
ost_uid0]
The Buffy fiver was good too.
[quote
ost_uid0]Xander: Well, I for one have decided I'm better off. What did Cordy ever do for me besides permanently sacrifice her social standing? It's not like she was incredibly hot and genuinely cared about me. I mean, come on, I didn't exactly throw away every guy's dream girlfriend. Will?
Willow: Yes?
Xander: Hold me.[/quote

*sniggers*
[quote
ost_uid0]Vampire: GRRRR! Oh, wait, is this a dramatic scene? I can come back.
Buffy: You do that. But first, die.[/quote
ost_uid0]
The best part was probably
[quote
ost_uid0]Vampire Willow: She also mentioned the Slayer.
The Master: What? Go kill her before she can do it again![/quote
ost_uid0]
Now that I think about it, sometimes the archvillain does seem to have an allergic reaction to some phrase that a good guy always manages to blurt out...
[quote
ost_uid0]Cordelia: Whoa. That was weird. I had a vision, and severe pain, and... okay, I guess it wasn't weird.
Angel: Cordelia! Answer us!
Wesley: It's no good... her body's out of commission, though her spirit may just be invisible somewhere else in the room, watching us and talking about things not being weird.
Cordelia: Well, obviously I stand corrected.[/quote
ost_uid0]
Heeheehee.
And this exchange was great:
[quote
ost_uid0]Angel: Hey, you're a gelatinous cube!
Conduit: What? First of all, I'm made of stone, and second, I'm on fire.
Angel: Oh. I kinda thought all big underground cubes were gelatinous.
Conduit: You realize your chances of getting help from me just dropped to about one percent.[/quote

The best parts of the TNG fiver were
[quote
ost_uid0]Lieutenant Nara: No, except he kept going around muttering "Empathic echos in the nacelle tube make Dan something something."
...
Troi: Yes. I sense dead people.
Crusher: My expert medical opinion is that you shouldn't try to sense the dead people again.
Troi: Try sensing the dead people again? Thanks, that's a great idea!
Riker: You'll need people of intelligence on this sort of mission. Quest. Thing.
Worf: That rules you out. Where are we going?
Troi: The empathic echo was forged deep in the nacelle tube, in fires of the plasma vents. Only there can it be destroyed.
[/quote

[quote
ost_uid0]Worf: Commander, I have a hypothetical situation for you. If a Klingon security chief wished to mate with a Betazoid counsellor --
Riker: Stay away from my girl, Worf.
Worf: If she were your girl, you wouldn't have to tell me that. Besides, you know what they say about all good things.
Riker: You're just asking for an insurrection, buster.
Worf: You leave me no choice. (ahem) Worf and Troi, sitting in a --
Riker: Okay, okay, you can go out with her. I just hope you're not too attached to your beard.[/quote
ost_uid0]
That entire paragraph was about a 'ship, I'm sure of that much, but I don't think it was W/T... :smile:
[quote
ost_uid0]La Forge: Let's see what the scanner can -- whoa. I see a dead people.
Body: I'm not dead.
Troi: Yes, you are. You're in a bulkhead.
Body: I feel better. I think I'll go for a walk.
La Forge: Data, you're not fooling anyone. Stop throwing your voice.
Data: Aw.[/quote
ost_uid0]
:lol: That was great!
[quote
ost_uid0]Troi: ...so when Pierce murdered the other two and then killed himself, he left an imprint in the corridor that made me and Kwan hallucinate.
Worf: That doesn't make much sense.[/quote
ost_uid0]
Troi's hallucinations never seem to make sense, do they?
Loved the jumpin' good blurb for this one, though. Great fiver.
[quote
ost_uid0][Insert the first half-dozen paragraphs of "Emanations" here][/quote
ost_uid0]
[quote
ost_uid0]Torres: Captain, dead bodies keep appearing on Voyager and the subspace thingumies that deliver them are really dangerous.
Tuvok: Plus, y'know, dead bodies are just creepy.[/quote
ost_uid0]
I liked that one in particular too.
And the long-awaited blurb for "All Good Things..." is great too.
All in all, the update was well worth waiting for.[/color
