Oh ye of targeted plot

This week, we found us some hobos that Agent Mulligan equipped with cheap Wal-Mart pagers so they could get in touch easily. General Silver and Agent Cully put their heads together and made a sort of mystic powder, which they then filled bullet casings with - it's a weapon against the abominable diamond man!

We also explored the suspect's old haunts from the 1920s, out in Partridgeville.

“I don’t care! Earth is in danger, probably.”

Mulligan (to Cully): “I’m going on blind faith here. Wait, that’s YOUR character. Blind science! Actually, that’s STILL your character. Blind supernatural!”

“In the absence of reasonable, crazy must be true.”

Player: “Culture: Hobo.”
GM: “That’s a stretch.”
Player: “It’s not as much of a stretch as some other things we’ve done.”

“I’m gonna get something retro.”
“Flares?”
“Pagers!”

Player: “Can’t you just put a collar on them with a GPS tracker?”
GM: “The homeless people?”
Player: “Yeah. Or a microchip.”
GM: “What’s your SAN?”

“What do you eat, cake dinners?”

GM: “The DA doesn’t show up at the briefings any more. He doesn’t want to hear the truth.”

GM: “This will be the first time he’s hunted something outside his own species-“
Mulligan: “Me too. Aside from the aliens, but I never catch them.”

GM: “There’s no evidence of aliens.”
Mulligan: “I know, that’s the problem.”
Player: “But he WANTS to BELIEVE.”

“Caramel burn.”
“Sweet-tasting napalm, basically.”

“He’s a lord, he’s got nothing else to do than summon the devil.”

Mulligan (to Mayham): “Mayham, if you were a psychotic alien …”

“To be fair, it’s not a Call of Cthulhu game until you’ve broken in somewhere.”

“We can’t call Gregor ‘Gordon’; he’s probably not alive.”

Player: “You’ll LIKE this.”
GM: “Not a lot.”

“It just means they’re incompetent, not dead.”

“Asking ‘Are you dead?’ would be rude.”

“Write down they were twice as expensive as they actually were.”
“I’m not a British politician.”

“Oh ye of targeted plot.”

(On hearing the GM is re-watching series two of The X-Files)
Player: “I don’t like how you’re back-profiling our characters.”
GM: “Who, ME?”

And next week, we decide to go to a rave ...
