New game for today. How about your favourite quotes from Skin Game.

Here are mine, in no particular order, but probably chronological how they got added into my clippings file. Not going to always say who says it, but hey, look it up if you die to know.

Let's see who can come up with other funnies.

Here is mine: (Melon Soda, don't look. You will spoil yourself if you have not read, please use caution carefully, don't say I did not warn you)

Spoiler:

1. 446-447: “You . . . you bitch.” Mab slapped me. Okay, that doesn’t convey what happened very well.
2. 466-467: “I expect you to repay my debt by fulfilling my instructions,” Mab replied. “After that . . .” Her smile returned, smug in the shadows. “I expect you to be yourself.”
3. 874-875: If you cross Mab, you can skip your next five-year plan.
4. 1193-1194: If it comes at us, I’ll knock it away and we meep-meep right the hell out of here.”
5. 1593-1594: “I hate dreams like this,” I said. “There’s no plot—just random weird things happening. I get enough of that when I’m awake.”
6. 2811-2813: “I dealt with the White Council my whole life, so I’m used to being treated like a mushroom—” “Eh?” Ascher asked. “Kept in the dark and fed bullshit,” Binder reported calmly.
7. 4960-4961: Not only that, but I had another advantage—during the past year and a half or so, since I’d been dead and got better, I’d been training furiously.
8. 5147-5150: “Tell you what,” I said. “Why don’t you go play Simon, Concentration, checkers, chess, solitaire, Monopoly, Sudoku, Clue, Risk, Axis and Allies, poker, and blackjack all at the same time, while counting to twenty thousand by prime numbers only, standing on one foot and balancing a Styrofoam cup of hot coffee on your head. And when you can do that, we’ll start you with walking through a small campfire.”
9. 5640-5640: “Sir Harry,” Hades rumbled. “Knight of Winter. Be welcome in my hall.”
10. 5899-5900: “I don’t know how you said it back in the day, but I’ll bet you anything her first word was ‘dada.’”
11. 2469-2470: “I mean, I was accustomed to a certain degree of hubris from you, but . . . this is stunning. Even on your scale.”
12. 2508-2509: “You are pathologically incapable of knowing when to quit. You don’t surrender. And I don’t believe for a second that you actually intend to help Nicodemus do whatever it is he’s doing.”
13. 2975-2976: “And just because I don’t go to bed with everything with a vagina doesn’t mean I’m repressed.
14. 4932-4934: I shifted to a maniacally indeterminate European accent and said, “We’re going through.” “The Black Hole?” Grey asked, incredulously. “Nobody quotes The Black Hole, Dresden. Nobody even remembers that one.”
15. 7090-7090: “Home is where, when you go there and tell people to get out, they have to leave.”

Well the best one for last:

• 3371-3374: “Bro,” he said, “you’re totally cockblocking me.” In answer, I picked up the monster revolver. “No,” I said, and then I freaking cocked it, drawing the hammer back with my thumb. Rather than a mere click, it made a sinister ratcheting sound. “Now I’m cockblocking you.”
