I kinda liked how this one came out in my fantasy novel, was trying to write badass dialogue lol.
“Yes, I know what a hand and a half sword is,” said Sherry. “Where I’m from we also call them ‘montante’, though I know many humans were fond of calling them ‘bastard swords’…is that something you identify with?”
And for my sci-fi series, I do feel my main character is really quotable cause she’s so fun. Love this line:
“You know, I would never have guessed you had a death wish.”
“Oh, I have no such wish,” replied Lily with a laugh. “My wishes mostly involve nicer things, like a good meal, a fun book…maybe some ladies in bikini.”
