Abrams
No
Graves: Cool book.
Abrams:
Graves: Right. Cool book.
Abrams:
Graves: "Nervous" is something I get before finals, this is a little different.
Abrams:
Graves: "Terrified" is probably too strong.
Abrams:
Graves: It's a lot to process.
Abrams:
Graves: You kidding me? These guys are trying to kill us, I'm gonna take all the protection I can get.
Abrams:
Graves: I'll try not to be offended.
Apollo
Yes
Graves: You gonna go make daddy proud?Apollo: My father's already proud of me. I don't need to pull stunts so he knows I exist.Graves: Don't talk to me like you know me.Apollo: How about you give me the same respect?!
Apollo: You weren't in class yesterday.Graves: You noticed?Apollo: I notice everything. Were you sick?Graves: Do you care? Apollo: Of course I care! It's hard for you fight if you have a high fever or food poisoning or whatever.Graves: I was skipping class, I'm fine.Apollo: "Oh, I'm fine! Just undisciplined and negligent!"Graves: You're such a prick.
Graves: Your dad's a warlord, right?Apollo: Kind of, yeah.Graves: How is someone "kind of" a warlord?Apollo: It's a cultural thing. You don't have a word in English for someone who wields the power of a governor and a general the way we do in Ixia.Graves: I mean we do. It's warlord.Apollo: [Sigh] I don't expect you to understand.
Bebop
No
Bebop:
Graves: No. Do yours?
Bebop:
Graves: Can you get off my back, you little robo-hypocrite?
Graves: Who made you?
Bebop:
Graves: You like her?
Bebop:
Graves: Eh, they're alright.
Graves: Look, the dead aren't very bright, okay? If any of them get in the way, I'm sorry.
Bebop:
Billy
No
Billy:
Graves: Way to go, Billy, you've got me all figured out. Truly, you are the master of the human condition.
Calico
No
Graves: You look familiar.
Calico:
Graves: No, I've seen you before--not on the news.
Calico:
Graves: Nonono, they're alive. [pause] I know; you were at their Christmas party last year.
Calico:
Graves: It was at "Whiteside & Graves".
Calico:
Calico:
Graves: Yeah, you gonna give me a lecture on how it's a bad idea to carry it?
Calico:
Graves: I like your ugly cat.
Calico:
Graves: Look--I mean, I think she's great, but... objectively she's ugly as sin.
Calico:
Celeste
Yes
Graves: You're not really a unicorn.Celeste: What makes you say that?Graves: I'm not 12.Celeste: By what, 6 months?Graves: Shut up.
Celeste: Ever thought about leaving home for the circus?Graves: My parents have penthouse in midtown, what do you think?Celeste: Proably not.Graves: Got it in one.
Graves: Your jacket would be cooler without the fringe.Celeste: You'd be cooler without the attitude.Graves: Don't see that changing anytime soon.Celeste: The jacket's awesome.Graves: Sure.Celeste: It is.
Dynamo
No
Graves: Please don't give me an inspiring teacher talk on my potential.
Dynamo:
Graves: Sounds good.
Dynamo:
Graves: It's not.
Dynamo:
Graves: This seemed a little more important.
Dynamo:
Dynamo:
Graves: I... kinda just want to focus on necromancy right now.
Dynamo:
Graves: Are you a friend of my parents?
Dynamo:
Graves: Ugh, for god's sake.
Grey Talon
No
Grey Talon:
Graves: I'm not sure how useful that is during a fire fight.
Grey Talon:
Graves: Of course.
Grey Talon:
Grey Talon:
Graves: Do you have any idea how many people told me it's a bad idea?
Grey Talon:
Graves: Why does it matter?
Grey Talon:
Grey Talon:
Graves: You don't know her.
Grey Talon:
Graves: Oh, like you're some kind of expert.
Grey Talon:
Graves: Take a nap, grandpa.
Haze
Yes
Haze: I need you to speak with a curator after the ritual.Graves: Why?Haze: Are you really asking me that?Graves: Everything's fine.Haze: Then it shouldn't be a problem.
Haze: Have you started thinking about your future?Graves: Right now I'm worried about living long enough to graduate.Haze: The OSIC could use someone like you.Graves: Not interested in being a sandman. Haze: And I'm not interested in you being one. But we have multiple divisions…and I think you might like being a Medium.Graves: That might not suck.Haze: Think about it. You can give me a call later.
Graves: Surprised you're not trying to take the hand.Haze: Curators care about things, Sandmen care about people. So until you become a threat to national security you're not my problem.
Holliday
Yes
Holliday: Is that a severed hand?Graves: Yeah?Holliday: I really need to get my tubes tied...
Holliday: When the ritual starts, go find a playground to brood in.Graves: A condescending cop. Shocking.Holliday: Snark isn't gonna keep you alive.Graves: What, and you are?Holliday: Against my better judgement.Graves: You're quite the civil servant.Holliday: You shouldn't be here. It's not safe.Graves: I can take care of myself.
Holliday: Sooo, do they give you the pack of cloves when you become a theatre kid, or was that something you brought to the table all on your own?Graves: I hope you get shot.Holliday: I'm making conversation.Graves: And I'm hoping you get shot.
Infernus
Yes
Graves: Is it true you once kicked Mina Ha out of your bar?Infernus: She tried to use a fake.Graves: Surprised she didn’t just bribe you.Infernus: She tried... but ain't no amount of money worth risking Jezebel's getting shut down.Graves: God I would have loved to see her face.Infernus: Not gonna lie, it was satisfying.
Graves: Ya know there's rumors about you.Infernus: That right?Graves: Yeah. Supposedly you're with the mob.Infernus: I'm just a bartender.Graves: That's not what my classmates say.Infernus: I don't know if I'd trust the Blackmore Academy rumor mill.Graves: They play cards at Wraiths.Infernus: Don't know if I'd trust what she has to say either.
Infernus: Hey Graves... I'm not gonna tell you how to live your life, cause lord knows you don't wanna hear it…Graves: But...Infernus: If you ever find yourself over your head... you can talk to me for help.Graves: We close now?Infernus: Look. When I was around your age I needed help, and someone gave it to me. It changed my life, and I just wanted you to know that... I'm willing to pay it forward.Graves: Good talk.
Lady Geist
No
Graves: Are you related to Johann Geist?
Lady Geist:
Graves: He was really talented. I wrote a paper about him in Humanities.
Lady Geist:
Graves: "Verloren in die Stille" (German: "Lost in the Silence") is amazing.
Lady Geist:
Graves: The jacket kinda gives it away.
Lady Geist:
Graves: You know your arm's... evil, right?
Lady Geist:
Graves: Like, he won't stop screaming about what he wants to do to people.
Lady Geist:
Graves: His name's Oathkeeper.
Lady Geist:
Paige
No
Paige:
Graves: Thanks for the tip.
Paige:
Graves: I'm sure you are.
Paige:
Graves: Well, whoever that is, they're cooler than you.
Rem
Yes
Graves: Are you nervous?Rem: A little.Graves: Well stick with me, I'll take care of you.
Rem: Do dead people dream?Graves: I think so.Rem: Why can't I talk to them?Graves: You gotta listen.Rem: But, if I'm listening, I can't ask them questions like: what's your favorite color, and why does bread taste good, and do you think cats would smoke if they had thumbs?Graves: Life's hard sometimes.Rem: It is...
Rem: Do you like bowling?Graves: What?Rem: You look like someone who likes bowling.Graves: It's kind of cool.Rem: Yeah. It is.
Seven
Yes
Seven: Be careful, child.Graves: What, or I'll end up like you?Seven: Ha, please! Stay on the path you're on and you won't live long enough to end up like me.Graves: Don't pretend like you care if I live or die.Seven: I'm not invested in your survival, I just hate to see talent wasted.
Seven: Don't trust your mentor.Graves: Why, cause she's a lich?Seven: No, because mentors only teach what they want you to learn. They are craven and use the young to live glories they could not achieve on their own.Graves: She's not like that.Seven: Ohoho, of couse not. She "sees potential in you that she's never seen in ages". You're "special".Graves: You don't know what you're talking about.Seven: You're right. How silly of me.
Graves: I'm able to hold my own.Seven: I never said you couldn't.Graves: I know I'm young, but-Seven: I don't care how old you are. If you're competent you'll survive, if you're not you'll die. Either way, you're not my concern.
Silver
Yes
Silver: Well, aren't you a creepy kid.Graves: I'm not a kid.Silver: You prefer... "angsty teenager"?Graves: Are you always a bitch or is this something special just for me?Silver: I'm pretty consistent.Graves: I think I don't hate you.Silver: I think I don't hate you too.
Graves: You like being a werewolf?Silver: I don't know.Graves: You don't know? Silver: I've never not been one. Imagine if I asked you how you like being a human?Graves: I'd say... that humans are generally awful with moments of surprising compassion and that we would all probably be better off if ninety percent of us were replaced by cats.
Graves: You seem cool.Silver: I am cool.Graves: You always want to be a bounty hunter?Silver: Nah, I always wanted to not be homeless so I decided to do whatever paid the most.Graves: Checks out.
Venator
Yes
Venator: You're in over your head, child.Graves: I get that a lot.Venator: Give me the lich hand.Graves: Not happening.Venator: You will regret your choice.Graves: Believe me, father, I already regret meeting you.
Graves: What kind of priest carries a gun?Venator: One that's about to go to war. What kind of child traffics with the dead?Graves: One that- ugh, I don't do purple prose. I do. I traffic with the dead. If you have a problem with that you shouldn't be here.Venator: No problem at all, lass.
Venator: The lich is using you.Graves: You don't know her.Venator: They're all the same.Graves: Oh my god, someone religious is being closed minded, I wish I wore pearls so I could clutch them.Venator: It's a real shame that you're not going to live long enough to learn the wisdom that comes with age.Graves: Don’t threaten me.Venator: Threaten ya? I'm trying to save your life.Graves: Thanks for your concern. I can take things from here.
Vyper
No
Vyper:
Graves: I have the day off. Shouldn't you be in jail?
Vyper:
Graves: You're full of shit.
Vyper:
Graves: Does it matter? 'cause I'm not giving it to you.
Vyper:
Graves: I'm not scared of you.
Vyper:
Graves: We're on the same team!
Vyper:
Vyper:
Graves: Yeah.
Vyper:
Graves: Please don't talk to me.
Vyper:
Graves: No.
Wraith
No
Wraith:
Graves: How do you know that?
Wraith:
Graves: I speak for them.
Wraith:
Graves: It's not. The dead have people speaking to them all the time. Go to a cemetery on Father's Day and you can't throw a rock without hitting someone talking to a headstone.
Wraith:
Graves: You don't get it. It's not... sweet , for them. It's painful . They see loved ones... hurting and they want to offer comfort. Or... advice, or... anything. To be their voice? It's... it's an honor.
Wraith:
Graves: Oh... yeah, I can do that.
