You haven't noticed Family Guy references in the other ones yet? Meh, I'm not great at this. I'm going to try a few more:

Boy: Mister, why do we do bad things?
Fighter: Heh, I used to ask that to myself. One day I answered it. Then I discovered TV and didn't care anymore.
Boy:....That doesn't really answer my question.
Fighter: Oh, but doesn't it?
Boy: ...No, it really, really doesn't.
Fighter: ...Oh, but doesn't it not?

...or..

Fighter: I like swords!
Girl: ...Like, Oh my god! I don't have time for you, loser! Go play with your swords elsewhere!
Fighter:...Ok! Whee!

...or..

Fighter: Hello!
Man:...Who are you, son, and what are you doing in my house?
Fighter: But we're outside! And my parents told me not to trust strangers! I need an adult!

...or..

Fighter: Hi, lady!
Woman: Oh, hello. I'm reading this daily affirmation that some moron dropped.
Fighter: Hmm..."Use swords to the fullest everyday!"...This looks familiar...
Woman: That same fool who wrote it also defaced it by writing "This are teh proprety of Fighter!11!!" on the back.
Fighter: Heh, "proprety". What a buffoon.

...or..

Fighter: I'm going to be a Light Warrior!
Old Man: Eh, you young whippersnappers with your "katanas" and "spells of divine destruction"! Back in my day, we used plain, simple, straight, metal SWORDS!
Fighter: Yep, 'tis a shame that no one I know wields good ol' fashioned swords anymore.

Here.

Back where Fighter is, Thief greets him as he emerges from the bush. Then the standard 8-Bit Theatre events take place as before in the comic -- but before Fighter interviews whoever will be interviewed, a white mage in a plain, white robe with brown hair walks up to Fighter, standing behind him. There is a short pause while Fighter just hesitates, then he turns around to notice her behind him.
"Wha -- why are you standing behind me?"
"I wouldn't trust him if I were you."
The screen rolls over to where Thief is. He is having a rather leisurely conversation with someone who looks like one of the town guards.
"Hey, come here often?"
"I live here."
"Well, guess what? They're having a special day today, and some pretty magnificent fireworks are starting up. Just over there."
"Where?"
The guard turns to face the other direction.
"Yoink!"
With that, Thief races away and disappears. The guard turns around once more.
"Where'd that shifty-but-convincing-stranger-like-figure-with-suspicious-boots go?"
The screen rolls back over to Fighter and the white mage.
"But you're not me. So I trust him. Right?"
"You did see him run off with someone's belonging, or at least some money."
"Naaah."
"Well, it's your problem now." The girl walks away for a brief time, and Fighter turns around, but she quickly comes back with a sword. "Now pay up because I warned you!"
"Say what?
"I'm just screwing around and stalling you. Have a nice day." She turns back around and walks off. Thief comes up to Fighter, concerned about what had happened.
"What did she say?"
"Something about trusting you and paying you, I think. I dunno." The current applicant walks forward.
"Can we, uh....start the interview yet?"
Back to where Black Mage was, the stranger he met with the green hat, red cloak, and multi-colored gloves stops him for a moment.
"Wait."
"What? I told you I didn't burn down your orphanage. -- I think."
"No, I just wanted to tell you that if you see a white mage with red hair, make sure she doesn't have her giant hammer out."
" -- ...Right. Why?"
"Gotta go. As you say, 'Yoing!'"
The person abruptly disappears.
" -- ...The things people do for money."

The dashes meant pauses in the speech.
I'll try posting another thing up in the forums...

Ultima08 · 03-21-2006, 10:05 PM

the thing is WM didn't know he was a theif until later when they got started on their journey
unless that is a diffrent WM

Jared Todd · 03-21-2006, 10:09 PM

... you...... that....... okay, that was Seran, ultima. Seran's the white mage. With the sword. and the brown hair. Which WM doesn't have because she's red-haired.

and YAY!! Seran, you're awesome. I loved it.

Chronoplasm · 03-21-2006, 11:41 PM

Heres an idea for a little sidequest. Suppose the characters could collect sexual innuendo items like Kupo Nuts or something and exchange them for a prize.

Guy in Moogle Costume: KUPODOKEN!!
*Guy in Moogle Costume throws nuts at your head. Battle ensues. If you win you get the Kupo Nuts*

Seran · 03-22-2006, 06:57 AM

Oh, thanks Jared. I just thought I should add something on since you requested it.

Kupodo -- what? Oh, ye gods! Run!

Exchange...sexual innuendo items...for prizes?

The way this is going it'll look like a good idea before long. Not to rag on anyone, and not that 8-Bit Theater doesn't have its fair share of sex humour, but if it was written like that exclusively, the readership's numbers would dwindle to say the least. There are other funny subject matters.

Also, it's a long way still to go, but I hope you know there's no way you can't include this.

Jared Todd · 03-22-2006, 09:28 AM

HAH! I'm two steps ahead of you, Meister! I've actually been trying to plan out a little trading item sidequest for RM inside Corneria, and other tiny sidequests.

and the great thing... is with this custom menu, I don't have to make any items, just variables! Just "?" events at the corner of the screen, that say the item name according to what variable number you're at.
[Var 0048:Quest 407]=1: \c[19]10 Eyes of Leeches-
[Var 0048:Quest 407]=2: \c[19]3 Worm Tails-

etc.

and.... no. Just.. no. I'm not big on sexual innuendo ever since I worked with Jason on Subliminal Catastrophe. That's all the first "episode" (probably the first 5-6 comics, still in the making) was.. sexual innuendo. Of course, Destiny does wear nothing besides a thong and a big green scarf. and that leaf on her head... Which leads me to not include sexual innuendo as much even more! Thief/RM is pretty sexy, but what sexual comedy can you use on four guys which won't repel fans after you do it once?

Vaij · 03-22-2006, 02:10 PM

Eh, I wouldn't worry too much about the "sexual innuendo" items, Meister. Jared Todd or Shiney's sense of decency and values will kick in long before mine or Chronoplasm's will.

Anyway, I have some more NPCs. These ones have a sidequest involved, in which you must retrieve Fighter's sword.

Fighter: I like swords!
Goth girl: Oh, the mortification, for this warrior speaketh of an object that which I would use to end mine own suffering on this mortal coil. Thank you, Fighter, for thou hast given me an escape from life, and eternal reprieve.
Fighter: Well, wasn't she nice- Hey! Where'd my sword go!

...then..

Fighter: Mister, you gotta help me! My sword has gone missing!
Man: Hm..I could give you information on your sword...but only if you bring me a donkey tail.
Fighter: Yes! Yes! Must...find...donkey tail!

....then..

Fighter: Hey, a donkey! Mr. Donkey, can I have your tail for a sidequest?
Donkey: ....Hell, no. How dumb of an ass do you think I am?
Fighter: Aww...now I'll never get my sword back from that dead Goth girl.
Donkey:...Goth, you say? Then PLEASE take my tail. I HATE their music.
Fighter: Yay! Hey...now that you're a tailless donkey, can I call you...Donkey Kong?
Donkey: No...just...no.

...then..

Fighter: I have your tail, sir!
Man: Ah, good lad. Now, the Goth girl left me the sword in her will, but I gave it to a pregnant woman.
Fighter: Then I'm off!
Man: Wait, take this power tab. It may help you.
Fighter: Man, what could I possibly use a power rab for? Hey, by the way, why do you want a donkey tail?
Man: So I can finally in the tail on the donkey. Duh.

....next..

Fighter: Have you seen my sword, ma'am?
Woman: Hmm...I do know where that sword went....but I'd only tell you if you gave me a power tab so my unborn son can grow up big and strong to KILL HIS BASTARD OF A FATHER.
Fighter: I think I have one right here, actually!
Woman: Oh you do? Well, I was going to secret the sword away for later use, but that thief Escobar stole it. I'll give you this mayonnaise of great value, though, so that you can get it back from Escobar.
Fighter: Hmmm....where would I find a thief?

...then..

Fighter: Hey, Thief?
Thief: Yeah?
Fighter: I'm looking for a thief named Escobar. Have you seen him?
Thief: Hmm...maybe a gil could help you here.
Fighter: Here you go!
Thief: Alright...close your eyes, and open them when you hear Escobar.
*Thief dons a black cape and hat* *a chord of Spanish music plays*
Thief: It eez I, ESCOBAR!
Fighter: Oh great Escobar, will you help me find my sword?
Thief: Hmm....well, Fighter, I will tell you where it is, if you give me ze mayonnaise of great value.
Fighter: Anything!
Thief: Ah, yes. Now, I gave ze sword to the Goth girl's mother, but she dropped her family talisman. Give eet to her...I can't sell it anyway...
Fighter: Thank you, great Escobar! May ask what your thiefship will do with the mayonnaise of great value?
Thief: Oh, Esco-I mean, I shall use it to make a pancake recipe that I stole from Dr. Malpractice.

...then...

Fighter: Goth girl's mother! Can you help me?
Woman: I can't now, I'm looking for my family talisman. It's bad enough that my daughter used a sword to jump off of this mortal coil...
Fighter: I have your talisman right here!
Woman: Yes! Thank you! I've been looking for this! Here, take this as a reward!
Fighter: Yay! Shinys! *Fighter recieved his sword and 25 gil!*
