FIREWATCH SENTENCE STARTERS

sentence starters based on lines i didn’t hear in my first playthrough of campo santo’s FIREWATCH, as found in the localisation github. feel free to change pronouns, details and wording to fit.

❛ don't tell me to take it easy. we've got a pair of criminal morons running around putting the forest and everyone in it in danger. ❜ ❛ just stay on my good side — but seriously, this is not my normal form of conflict resolution. ❜ ❛ i was just trying to be a self-starter. ❜ ❛ are you a freaking bond villain? ❜ ❛ well, i'm sorry — the distance between my brain and my mouth is… pretty short. ❜ ❛ well damn. if only you had some way to look out over the forest. ❜ ❛ do you think anyone knows what time it is? are all the clocks broken? ❜ ❛ well, obviously keep an eye out. don’t be dumb about it. ❜ ❛ do ropes… expire? ❜ ❛ last summer a woman opened one and it was full of bees. ❜ ❛ you’re alright with ‘pussy-willow’ possibly being your last words? ❜ ❛ yes, a lake is represented by a blue circle. and a condescending boss is, what, exactly? ❜ ❛ oh, i thought it'd be a good idea to chuck some roman candles into a smoldering fire-pit. ❜ ❛ if you could refrain from criminal destruction of personal property while on this job, that'd be great, okay? ❜ ❛ do you see me flipping you the bird while the wilderness burns down thanks to an idiot with a roman candle? ❜ ❛ i am happy to hear about the birds, the chance of lightning, whatever weird shit you've got going on, but can we please not talk about me? ❜ ❛ you didn't have the good sense to write the embarrassingly simple code down? ❜ ❛ did you just yell into a pillow? ❜ ❛ you don't think you're going to end up on a milk carton, do you? ❜ ❛ mad scientists? the CIA? wild separatists? the fucking… illuminati?! come on. ❜ ❛ jeez, do you have the hubble telescope over there? ❜ ❛ it's fine. i'll just chuck my walkie-talkie into the river. ❜ ❛ yep, just a hop, skip and a big-ass jump over a jagged ravine. ❜ ❛  i mean, it's the wilderness. it's wild. it says so right in the name. ❜ ❛ wow, you are a dork, huh? ❜ ❛ uh. what thingy? what now? ❜ ❛ what, is this the twilight zone? ❜ ❛ last thing I need is another big crossword breakthrough. ❜ ❛ i care about you. that's not made up. it's real. ❜ ❛ i'm trying not to scream every time you tell me about the trash they're leaving in my forest. ❜ ❛ you're losing your shit right now and… i want you to take a breath. ❜ ❛ what the heck, I've got no ties and no life, better go spend what's left of it in utter loneliness! ❜ ❛ my mother always said i would meet someone who'd give me a taste of my own medicine. ❜ ❛ let's hope this equipment isn't machine guns. ❜ ❛ you have some highly contagious pun-related disease? ❜ ❛ what’s with the ‘roger thats’? ❜ ❛ i have been pretty upset about things for a long time now and i haven’t really had anywhere to put that anger. ❜ ❛ oh, i just thought i would maybe stop there. let the mystery percolate. ❜ ❛ then… that's why god invented booze, i guess. ❜
