    Season 1 
  • In the pilot, Abigail and Tally compare witch marks. When Tally asks to see Raelle's witch mark, Raelle tells her it's an inch away from her vagina, and advises her to ask again when they know each other better.
  • Also in the "Pilot", after going through a grueling training in the mud and rain, there is this exchange between the unit:
    Tally: Is the ground spinning?
    Raelle: Technically, yes.
    Abigail: I think that may have been a joke.
    Raelle (mockingly insulted): What, I'm funny!
    Abigail (laughs): Yeah, like a puppy funeral.
  • In "My Witches", Scylla comes to meet Raelle in the pizza parlor, also meeting her unit at the same time. She and Abigail size each other up.
    Raelle: Uh, Tally, Glory, Abigail, this is Scylla.
    Scylla (with a beguiling smile): Pleased to meet you ladies.
    Abigail: So...this is Necro?
    Scylla: And this is High Atlantic.
    (Beat)
    Raelle: O-kay...let's go.
  • "A Biddy's Life":
    • Tally gets, um, really excited over the arrival of the male witches.
      Abigail: You need some "you time" in the suite, Tally?
    • Anacostia offers up brutal criticisms during the scrying exercise.
      Abigail: I'm pretty sure my scry is broken.
      Anacostia: I am one-hundred-percent certain that it is not.
    • Also, in that scene Raelle is holding her scry wrong (rotated by 90 degrees), and after she glances over at Tally she casually fixes her hold. Apparently, this was unscripted and just a goof by the actress [1].
    • Tally is throwing longing gazes at a male witch.
      Abigail: Just go talk to him already.
      Tally: And say what? "Hi, I'm Tally, complete virgin and hot for any part of you that's available"?
      Raelle: How about just "Hi"?
  • In "Hail Beltane", Gerit sends Tally a dick pic, which is to say that he draws a picture of his own penis and sends it to Tally via messenger bird. For added humor, Byron later tells Raelle that Gerit probably copied the picture from the witch's sex manual.
  • In "Witchbomb", when Tally calls out Alder for her crimes in a shockingly blunt and tactless manner, the camera cuts to Abigail looking absolutely horrified at the directness of Tally's accusations to the General of the Army and their commanding officer.

    Season 2 
  • "Of the Blood": Tally feeling herself up after getting her youth back, smiling at how firm her boobs are. A moment later, Alder comes in and asks, "Everything where it should be?"

    Season 3 
  • "The Price of Work": Raelle and Scylla are looking for a boat to steal when they find one with anti-witch stickers plastered on it.
    Raelle: Yep. We're definitely stealing this one.
  • "Happy Yule!": The Cession Marshal is doing his rounds around the mansion where the group (Abigail, Tally, Nicte, Scylla, Adil and Khalida) is being kept. They try to ambush the guy, but he just laughs off their work, and counters it with a spell of his own that ''distorts gravity'', forcing them to grab what they can and hold on for dear life or else fall several feet sideways. By itself, that's a Moment of Awesome to the Marshal. But his parting line?
    The Marshal: Go to bed!
  • In "Revolution, Part 2", Alder and Nicte apologize to each other. They do make peace, but the moment includes enough Snark to make it funny.
    Nicte: I'm sorry I wasted so much time hating you instead of enjoying life. I'm actually an incredibly fun person.
    Alder: Have you met yourself?
