Apologies, I'm spoken for today.

Conversations[edit | edit source]

Hero Complete? Audio Transcription
Abrams No

Mirage: Detective. Is that your rank?

Abrams:

Mirage: Ah. So you value profit over civic duty.

Abrams:

Mirage: Maybe you should find a new line of work.

Mirage: Abrams. That Tome is radiating malice.

Abrams:

Mirage: Why are you carrying it?

Abrams:

Abrams:

Mirage: A few years.

Abrams:

Mirage: One doesn't send out a CV to work for the Djinn, they... approach you, with an offer.

Abrams:

Mirage: Some days are safer than others, but... on the whole, no. I am grateful to be of service.

Bebop No

Bebop:

Mirage: Without question.

Bebop:

Mirage: What would you have me do? Stick her in a dresser at her hotel? No. She's safer with me.

Mirage: Bebop. Today your courage is required.

Bebop:

Bebop:

Mirage: I try not to think about questions like that. Underconfidence can be just as dangerous as overconfidence.

Calico No

Mirage: You're the woman with no honor, yes?

Calico:

Mirage: You betrayed everything you believed in.

Calico:

Mirage: You used to save people. And now you kill them for money.

Calico:

Mirage: You're a lost cause.

Calico:

Mirage: I haven't had the chance to see much, but... what I have has been pleasant.

Calico:

Mirage: You are surprisingly affable.

Calico:

Mirage: I don't recall us meeting.

Calico:

Mirage: That's right. How did you...? (Gasps) You're the one who assassinated Siegfried, aren't you?

Dynamo Yes

Dynamo: I've wanted to speak to a Djinn for quite sometime. I imagine they are a fascinating people.

Mirage: They're people. Some are fascinating, some are... are, uh...

Dynamo: Banal?

Mirage: What does that word mean?

Dynamo: It's a fancy way of saying "boring".

Mirage: No, that's not it. What do you say when someone is... cruel as a child would be?

Dynamo: Asshole.

Mirage: Yes. Asshole. Some are fascinating, some are... assholes.

Mirage: Professor, would you be willing to give Nashala and I a tour of Columbia?

Dynamo: It would be my pleasure.

Mirage: Thank you.

Dynamo: Which is your favorite part of New York you've seen?

Mirage: We haven't had the opportunity to do much sightseeing. But the library was stunning.

Dynamo: One of my favorite places to go think.

Mirage: I can see why.

Haze No

Mirage: Hopefully, this is just the beginning of a partnership with your nation.

Haze:

Haze:

Mirage: The feeling's mutual.

Mirage: Do you think your government will be reasonable?

Haze:

Mirage: Part of a state.

Haze:

Mirage: That's how you got Louisiana!

Holliday Yes

Holliday: You... really think the US is gonna sell Wyoming to the Djinn.

Mirage: Well, I think the US is interested in money... and power. And the Djinn can offer both.

Mirage: You're blinded by hatred, Holliday.

Holliday: I'll keep that in mind.

Mirage: That's the problem, you won't. And when you cling to that path... you'll die because of it.

Holliday: Thanks for the advice.

Holliday: You like working for Nashala?

Mirage: I do. When she's free of her vessel, she offers... scintillating conversation. When she rests... I get to go bowling.

Holliday: Bowling?

Mirage: I learned about it in England, it is the sport of kings.

Kelvin Yes

Kelvin: The Djinn have an uphill battle facing them.

Mirage: Good things seldom come easily.

Kelvin: Do you think Nashala has a chance at brokering a deal?

Mirage: If there's anyone that can pull it off, it will be her.

Kelvin: I imagine your career choice has taken you to some fantastic locales.

Mirage: It has.

Kelvin: I look forward to reading all about them.

Mirage: You won't be. Revealing those details would be a major break of Nashalas trust.

Kelvin: Hm, disappointing, but respectable.

Kelvin: Good luck to you, Mirage.

Mirage: Thank you Kelvin. May success greet us both, with open arms.

Lady Geist Yes

Mirage: I've heard about you, Lady Geist.

Lady Geist: Good things, I hope.

Mirage: Rumours are rarely kind to their subject.

Lady Geist: You're Ambassador Nashala's bodyman, yes?

Mirage: Correct.

Lady Geist: When the ritual is complete, I'd love to have a chat with her.

Mirage: What is it regarding?

Lady Geist: That's not your concern.

Mirage: But it is. When you decide that you wish to be forthright, let me know, and I'll consider your request.

Lady Geist: Good help is hard to find. Nashala is lucky to have you.

Mirage: It's an honor to serve her.

Lady Geist: Oh, I like you.

Seven Yes

Seven: So you are Nashala's pawn?

Mirage: I serve at her pleasure, yes.

Seven: It's so nice to work with someone who understands their place.

Seven: So... Wyoming?

Mirage: I know.

Seven: Good luck with that.

Seven: How do you like working for the Djinn?

Mirage: Well enough. Sometimes it's frustrating, when Nashala makes impulsive, short-sighted decisions.

Seven: Such as?

Mirage: Asking me to trust you.

Seven: [Laughter] You're fun!

Vyper No

Mirage: You smell of cheap cigarettes and cheaper morals.

Vyper:

Vyper:

Mirage: That's my employer. Ambassador Nashala.

Vyper:

Mirage: Do not touch her if you value your life.
