Hello all, long time no post, but this bit of mayhem has been cross-checking around inside my head and finally found a way out.
I was raised on Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies(which gives you an idea of my normal mental state) and a few of these references parsed themselves against my will when I re-read DWII:
"Ho, ho, ho. Doug-Hunters is da cwaziest peoples." (I do believe I've found a .sig for this board)
"Ahhhh, yes! Frustrating, isn't it?"
(Bogart from 'The African Queen' strides into frame. Any part of the series.) "Pardon me, sir, but could you help out a fellow American who's down on his luck?"
"Katherine Madigan. Soooooooper Geeeeeenius!"
Doug pauses as he is about to administer some righteous self-defense to the beginning pack of 'crunchies' and, breaking the fourth wall, notices the audience. He stretches a hand upward out-of-frame and pulls down a black window shade with the word 'CENSORED' proudly stenciled in yellow on its surface. Sounds of violence ensue, rattling the window shade.
How about you guys?

"Ho, ho, ho. Doug-Hunters is da cwaziest peoples."
Hmm. Note to self. Check to make sure you're in the right fourm before you post. This was meant for DWII. Oh, well, not the first time I failed a perception check.

(Next morning, when I can think...)
Oh, I've got a whole list of stuff that I wanted to use and didn't, simply because I couldn't find good places to fit it in. The one I regret the most didn't go in because I didn't have a good place for it, but because I remembered it way, way too late: "And whomsoever art thou, in thine cast-iron tuxedo?"
Lessee, I ought to have the list of lines handy... oh yeah, here it is. This comes from my master notes'n'stuff file for DW2, but a lot of these are slated for use in other Steps, if opportunity presents:
You don't have to be crazy to do this, but it sure helps!

I see Doug saying this, having just weaseled his way out of a continued, ah, moral discussion with the Sabers...
Followed immediately by Sylia clamping a hand around his shoulder and leaning on him a bit, and saying

"V, did you do something foolish?"
"Yes, and it was glorious."
Ah, thanks for the move. *peers at list*
Wow.
Another reference just popped in. It has no quotes, per se, but its a running gag that I find funny as hell.
The toon in mind is that adorable, fun-seeking, lucky, and SNEAKY-as-hell puppy who has the uncanny ability of Superleap, Usable Against Others. Not sure if he had a name, but I remember the fall-cat being named Claude.
And another quote Foghorn Leghorn: "WHAAM-a-Doodle! She done jumped off!"
Obscure enough?

Yup. My brain is definitely broken, seeing a maniacal version of Gendo saying that line...

(Edited because I realized I kept having these weird ideas and needed to string them into one post...)
Quote:
Why, oh why... when I read that quote, do I see Doug doing Gendo's hair? O_O
I always wanted to work up the whole scene with a boomer in DW2 -- maybe one of those female assassin types that took out Irene -- but I never found the right place to put it.
Hm. When I'm done with the book and DW2, I ought to polish as many of those "wish I coulda" ideas as I can and give them a webpage.
