Quotes

Ground State

GWEN: Hey there, Denzel.

Long Day's Journey

ANGEL: Gwen.
GWEN: Hi there. Long time, no hand-to-hand. (Walks into the lobby, to Gunn.) I remember you.

CORDELIA: Uh, wouldn't it make more sense to split up? One super power per shift. That way if horn boy shows up, we mere mortals might stand a chance.
GUNN: Makes sense to me.
GWEN: OK then, I'll take Denzel.
GUNN: Uh, actually, it's Gunn. Not that I mind the freakishly accurate comparison, but you will keep your hands to yourself.

GWEN: So then after the second gardener and the fourth nanny, I got sent to the academy . . . Something tells me my origin story isn't enough to fascinate you.
GUNN: Oh, no, it is. I was just—just thinking.
GWEN: Gunn, I already apologized for killing you. What do you want, a wake?
GUNN: It isn't that.
GWEN: Then it's the English guy, isn't it? I saw the way he looked at your girl. A good thief is a master of body language.
GUNN: He starts talking with his body, he's gonna have a serious problem.
GWEN: I'm surprised. A few months ago, she was ready to wear sackcloth and ashes for you. When did the landscape change?
GUNN: Long story.

Players

GWEN: So, I'm in a jam. I can't get out of it alone. I need someone suave, a guy who can handle himself in a tight spot.
ANGEL: Gwen, I'd love to help—
GWEN: (gestures to Gunn) I meant him.

GUNN: So, why me?
GWEN: I told you. I need a suave guy in a tight spot.
GUNN: Suave? (sees Gwen's figurines) You been collecting these for a while?
GWEN: Yeah, I get one each trip. I just brought the dolphin back from Tahiti. You collect anything when you travel?
GUNN: Uh, yeah. I, uh, I got a big ol' scar on my thigh from Boyle Heights . . . A piece of vamp stake I picked up a while back in Alhambra . . . And a couple of burn marks on my hip from Encino . . . Yep, name a town, I'll show you the souvenir.
GWEN: I didn't mean to . . .
GUNN: I'm not complaining. Hell, I've seen more here than most people've seen traveling around the world. Someday, maybe.

(Gwen and Gunn emerge from a limo in fancy dress)
GWEN: How're you doing?
GUNN: You tell me. I'm thinking James Bond never looked this fine.
GWEN: I'm thinking you're right.
GUNN: Of course, I'd feel better if we were packing some of his secret weapons.
GWEN: Charles, we are the secret weapons. Nervous?
GUNN: Nah. I've gotten into clubs with tighter security than this.

GUNN: It was the scanners, wasn't it? Why you wanted me. Angel, no heartbeat.
GWEN: Security scan of a dead guy might've raised a few eyebrows.
GUNN: You know, for about five seconds, I thought you might actually care about something.
GWEN: Okay, so what if I didn't tell you about my plan? And so what if I set you up for a fall? When's the last time you had this much fun? I saw your face out there — you were having a great time.
GUNN: It's 'cause I thought I was doing good.
GWEN: You were. Just not the kind that involves saving a fairy princess from an evil king.
GUNN: So Lisa doesn't exist?
GWEN: Yes, she does. And I've liberated her from this steel tomb by now if you'd stop yapping for half a sec. It's a military acronym: Localized Ionic Sensory Activator. L-I-S-A.
GUNN: A weapon? L.I.S.A.'s a weapon?
GWEN: Not a weapon. A covert device worn by black ops. Regulates body temp, heartbeat, body chemistry. Morimoto's company designed it, and I've been hired to steal the beta test.
GUNN: God bless America.
GWEN: Actually China, or North Korea. Not really sure. Morimoto's selling it to the highest bidder.
GUNN: And who are you stealing it for?
GWEN: Look, there are two things that make me a good thief. I steal what I'm paid to steal, and I don't ask too many questions.
GUNN: Well, good luck with that. (walks away)
GWEN: Nothing's changed, you know. Morimoto's still a bad guy. You're still a good one.
GUNN: You know, I can't believe I actually took time out of the apocalypse for this.
GWEN: Even the Prez takes vacations. Besides, if they need you, they'll call. Come on. We started this together. Let's finish it the same way.
GUNN: It's not the same.
GWEN: You can keep the suit.
(Gunn walks back to the safe with Gwen.)

GUNN: (returning the jade tiger) Back where he belongs. I got to give you credit—you are stubborn.
GWEN: I know what I want.
GUNN: I get that. At least, I used to. Things aren't always so clear anymore.
GWEN: You seemed pretty clear tonight.
GUNN: Adrenaline rush—when I was trying to save that girl.
GWEN: I meant when you were saving me.
GUNN: Hey, I'm just the muscle.
GWEN: Don't knock the muscle, buddy. Makes the girls go all knocky in the knees. But if that's all you were, we never could've gotten into that party tonight.
GUNN: Oh, you would've gotten in. Of course, the damage would have been significantly higher.
GWEN: Thanks to your brains-over-brawn approach.
GUNN: Well, not so much brains as too many movies.
GWEN: Man, they have done a number on you. You really believe this "I'm the muscle" crap.
GUNN: This your version of a pep talk?
GWEN: Could be. Need one?
GUNN: Nah.
GWEN: Good. It's not my area of expertise. So, why do you stay if that's all they see in you?
GUNN: I'm a fighter. Born and raised. You love being a thief?
GWEN: I'm a freak. Being a thief makes me a part of something and not a part at the same time. Tonight? Yeah, I kinda loved it.
GUNN: You know, for someone loving life, you seemed awfully willing to die for this.
GWEN: What you saw tonight, that's as bad as it gets, but even at its best . . . That thing might let me be — well, not normal, but . . . hold hands, maybe. So, yeah, guess I was willing to die, or even . . . you wouldn't understand.
GUNN: Sure I do. Brainy, remember? You want to show me how this thing works?
(Gwen lays face down on the bed, her dress half-removed to expose her back)
GUNN: How do you fire it up?
GWEN It's not an X-Box. Just put it on. Careful.
GUNN: (he touches her tentatively, gets shocked) Ow.
GWEN: Like I said . . . (Gunn places the L.I.S.A. on Gwen's back) It's chilly.
GWEN: What's it doing?
GUNN: You ever seen one of those body-snatcher movies? Feel any different?
GWEN: Yeah . . . Not so much. (tentatively, Gunn reaches out to Gwen's back, touching his fingers to her skin) Think it worked. (Gunn runs his hand down her back) It feels good.
GUNN: So . . . if you couldn't touch, guess that means you've never—
GWEN: Nope. Nope. Anyway, thanks for turning me . . . off.
GUNN: Anytime. Thank you.
GWEN: For what? The guards? The suit? The almost dying?
GUNN: The most fun I've had . . . since . . . (kisses Gwen on the lips)
GWEN: You know, um . . . that device, it's a prototype. It might not hold.
GUNN: Well, you've already killed me once. If it happens again, you know where my battery is.

No problem.

[lunas_borednow]

I'm not on the list...

[fresley4ever]

You didn't ask in the last thread that was why I didn't add you. Some people just want to pop in and say things.

[lunas_borednow]

that's okay... I'll make a banner and some icons soon... I just have a waiting list a mile long...

[fresley4ever]

There is no hurry. The OP looks pretty good right now.

[lunas_borednow]

got the quotes up... cool!

[fresley4ever]

You can thank Echo for that.

[lunas_borednow]
