"Transporter room get us out of here now!!"
"Energize."
"Why is nothing happening?!!"
"There seems to be a slight #transport er...malfunction. Turns out we brought everything around you on board as well."
"Aaaaaaaaargh!!!"
"... Sorry about that. We'll return things back to the planet."

"There's a #science to murder, U know."
"Is there?"
"Yes. There is."
"Have U studied it?"
"U know I don't like to study."
"I do know that. Which is why I'm wondering how come U are doing it, then, if it's a science."
"Well, besides experts, there's got to be hobbyists too, right?"
"I guess."

"There's a light in the harbor."
"Isn't there always?"
"Yeah, but... Different.
Someone's coming off a boat onto a pier. Oh my God, they're #alight!"
"They're on land now. So what?"
"No. I mean they're On Fire!"
"Really?"
"Yes!"
"Oh... That IS different."

"What's wrong now?"
"There's a whole #number of things that are wrong. Where should I even start?"
"Tell you what... Start by pretending I didn't ask. It's not like I actually want to hear any of this."

I think the girl at the airline's check-in counter just threatened me.

She looked me dead in the eye and said, “Window or aisle?”

I laughed in her face and replied, “Window or you’ll what?”

"What's that?"
"It's an orchid #mantis."
"Is it? Aren’t they usually pink? Why is this one lavender?"
"You see it too! I'm so glad. It's not only the color, there's something else different too."
"You mean the antenna? It's curly?"
"Yes! It's a new species, isn't it? I found a new species."

"Help me out a little, will you?"
"Sure. What do you need?"
"Measure some #myth for me, & add it in the mix I'm making."
"Ok. How much do you need?"
"I don't know. The recipe doesn't have measures. I'm guessing. Trying to eyeball it."
"No need for a measure then. I'll just pour it in."

"Good morning. How's the weather looking today?"
"There's a #slight chance of occasional #literature occurring."
"Oh. Could we #shape that into a certainty, perhaps?"
"You know weather. It is what it is, and does what it does. Doesn't ask our opinion."
"True. True. Well, here's hoping."

"You gotta do it. It's the #law."
"Show me where in the law book it says I have to carry ice cream in my back pocket on Sundays."
"It's right here. See!"
"Oh...So it is. Who the heck came up with this, and why??!"
"It's the whole country. We just want to be the opposite of that other place."

"Blok. Glonk. Giitoyrp brralk."
"Haha. Striiiistrg."
"What #language are you two talking??"
"Our mother tongue."
"Go back where you came from!!"
"Would love to. Unfortunately it was infested by humans & is uninhabitable now."

"Oh, no..."
"You know the guy just walked in?"
"Yeah... We've got some #history."
"He looks dreamy."
"He's a nightmare."
"I don't know... Might be worth a try anyway."
"Trust me. You don't want that drama in your life."
"Been boring lately. I'll give him a whirl."
"...Your funeral."

"It's a nightmare."
"What is?"
"This test we're having at school."
"What's it on?"
"You don't know? It's #geography!"
"Oh. ...Oh! You mean a literal nightmare! I passed geography 10 years ago!"
"No. You did not. You failed it. Now you are taking it again."

"Who is that?"
"Don't you recognize him?"
"Should I?"
"He's #famous."
"Is he? For what exactly?"
"Well, he... I think he..."
"You don't know either, do you?"
"Well, I know he's famous."
"Yeah? Is that supposed to mean something?"

"What are you wearing?"
"Remember how last year people complained puffy winter coats 'Hide the feminine form'?"
"Yeah?"
"This year's winter fashion makes sure everyone knows underneath the warmth, there's still b oobs & curves."
"By... printing b oobs on the coat???"
"This is all the rage now."

"Who is that #creature standing next to our grandson?"
"That would be his wife."
"What??! When did he get married, & why was I not informed?!"
"You were. 10 years ago."
"This is unacceptable."
"So you said 10 years ago."
"He should marry a human being!"
"He made his choice. They are happy."

"Happy #Halloween, my love," she says in a message on my answering machine.
'Happy?'
How could a man be happy with his wife gone missing with all his assets and his mistress?

"The #Purple Witch got a bee in her bonnet, or a wasp. It startled her so she fell from the sky into a bramble, & by the time she finally untangled herself from it, scratched bloody all over, some stupid thief had stolen her broom! She's not in a good mood, I tell ya."
"She wears a bonnet?"

"What's that on that tray?"
"A #ray gun."
"It looks like a tiny person!"
"Yeah. Like I said."
"I've never seen a ray gun move like that. ...Or a person."
"Oh... One word, not two. It's a Raygun. Though it will shoot lasers from its feet when it's upside down."
"Dafuqq??"
