Jaeger:"Aaugh! Lookit DOT!"
Gil:"What!? WHAT is it!?"
Jaeger:"Dey turn my favorite Ground-hyu-own-sausage-bar into a schtupid flower shop!" "Dot iz a crime, dot iz!"
Agatha:"Will you stop DOING that!"
The fact that the Jaeger is sight seeing as they try and hustle their way through a war zone AND that he's been pointing out changes to the town since he's been away. Doing it enough times with such loud "O.M.G!" moments that even Agatha is annoyed at his antics.
As for "Whoo! Yah! Ve HUNT!"
That poor clank. It'll never know what's hit it. (Including with/by a screaming major minion.)

Re: The Girl Genius Thread
Isn't it funny, the baron has given Agatha access to all the technology he has... Either he underestimates her massively, or he wants her to win.

Travik sure doesn't look happy with Molock, guess he'd like to be in that position with Agatha

Looks like he's becoming a prime minion, he's already finding it easy to love his master for the small mercies she shows.

Or maybe, just maybe, there is a faint possibility that a man disapproves of another man pressing his cheek into the crotch of said first man's love interest, and has both hands firmly on her bottom while he does so...ryacko wrote:Maybe Tarvek is finding all this suspicious that the Baron is giving Agatha all the parts she needs?Bedlam wrote:Travik sure doesn't look happy with Molock, guess he'd like to be in that position with Agatha

No need to. It is pretty much standard in all her inventions. I bet she could build an eyebrow plucker that could also blow up clanks with ease.Crayz9000 wrote:Add "demolition device" to the list of features of Agatha's death ray.

Re: The Girl Genius Thread
Well of course! You never know when you're going to get ambushed - by the creations of a rival Spark, rival sparks themselves, your trainer/protector/giant automated castle, or *ahem* your own creations feeling a bit feisty - and when plucking your eyebrows you're likely not going to have your death ray or powered armour handy - you don't want to be defenseless, do you?Enigma wrote:I bet she could build an eyebrow plucker that could also blow up clanks with ease.
