Funny / Black Geyser: Couriers of Darkness

Go To

  • Bjalla's recruitment scene can be hilarious, where she is being mobbed by hordes of unwanted suitors. Some of the ways of getting her out of it are equally hilarious.
    Bjalla: Uh, Lord Smedrick, as much as your poetry is *alarmingly* metaphorical, I still must insist you speak to no one regarding your thoughts on my resemblance to a flower bud, ready to open.
    Player Character: First, I'll mix a small glass of water and wine. Second, deposit it in a man's pocket... (Steal and Plant Item)
    Lord Trype: Oh, uh, oops.
    Lord Smedrick: Haha! Trype you ninnyhammer, you spilled your drink!
    Lord Fiffin: He didn't. His drink's right there.
    Lord Smedrick: I think I do, old boy. Smells like wine.
    Bjalla: You wet yourself?! Ugh, disgusting. Go away, all of you! Now.
    Lord Smedrick: Again, Trype? You truly are a disappointment.
    Lord Trype: A thousand apologies, lady Bjalla.
    Lord Fiffin: That's the third time, actually, I've been counting.
    • And you can continue the hilarity by making some cheesy passes at her too.
      Player Character: Oh, sweet is milady Bjalla of course, her haunches as strong as a wheat-farmer's horse;
      Bjalla: Pardon me but I would greatly prefer it if you would avoid waxing poetic about my, uh, "haunches".
      Player Character: Her bosom, it heaves when she's angry, as now. Or perhaps like that horse, she's hoping to-
      Bjalla: Finish this verse, I will disallow.

  • During Bjalla's, one of your companion's personal quests, they come across an old colleague of theirs who they had a falling out with due to a Noodle Incident. The dialogue goes like this:
    Mendelroth: Whatever it is you want, I am a very busy–
    Bjalla: Mendelroth.
    Mendelroth: ...
    Mendelroth: Bjalla.
    Player Character: If wizards could cast death rays from their eyes, I’d be standing with two piles of cinders right now.
    Bjalla: Look, I can hardly be blamed if a wandering goat–
    Mendelroth: Aldebarth! My *friend’s* name was Aldebarth. If you insist on raising these painful memories–
    Bjalla: In any case, the spellbook was to blame for what happened to that go– I mean, uh, Edelbroth. The notations said nothing about–
    Mendelroth: IT’S ALDEBARTH! And you had no right to–
    Player Character: All right, what exactly happened to this goat of yours?
    Mendelroth: It was abominable! I’ve seen horrid misuses of magic in my time, but never–
    Bjalla: The spellbook contained a transcription error from an earlier–
    Mendelroth: Aldebarth was a gentle creature, and so clever! Smarter than many of my students–
    Bjalla: It says so much that this ruminant was your best friend. What more can I add?
    Player Character: Just like a married couple!
    Mendelroth: ...
    Bjalla: ...
  • There's a place in a dungeon where you can find a melon that you need to solve a puzzle to get to. After getting to the melon, you have a number of things you can do, but one of them is to "Contemplate the melon in all it's glory", which shows you this dialogue:
    "Oh melon pure, oh melon sweet,
    You are the fairest thing to eat.
    For in your depths, the sweetest prize,
    Like longing in a lover's eyes.
    Oh darling melon, this I swear:
    I shall not wait, I shall not err.
    'tis time to eat you, now, today,
    And whither then? I cannot say."
  • Isla can mention to the player character that she wants to talk with him, alone. It's pretty obvious what she wants with them. They can ask if they want to talk alone while they still have their companions around, it goes like this:
    Player Character: You mentioned you wanted to talk with me alone?
    Isla: Yes, and you are not alone. Come back when we can speak in private.
    Bjalla: In case she's being too subtle, Player Name, she wants to see you ALONE, in PRIVATE, without your FRIENDS watching.
    Helgenhar: If a hint was the haft of an axe, and it struck you on the skull, then would you get it?
    Jade: So squeamish. Try getting in the mood when you're surrounded by groaning- Never mind.
