Vigorous handshakes are NOT a good idea with Bjørn...

  • "Okay, hun! I'm gonna go see if a nice giant wants to SLIT MY THROAT!!"

  • "Hey Pesto, did anything happen with the gate?" "Nope! Let's smash it open with a rock!"

  • "Aw man, I gosh darn gave you SUPERPOWERS! You were all like "Boo-hoo, Pesto! Why did you turn me into an abomination?" and I was all "HERE! Have some SUPERPOWERS!" You're welcome!"

  • Pesto goes into a rant about her boss and job after being told about Helheim's renovations. She eventually gets to complaining about people ranting on a loop, right before she starts her own rant over herself.
    • She also makes a callback to the first game's overuse of a certain word...
"And my boss is gonna be all 'You are in deep feces!' I HATE it when he says that! Like we haven't heard THAT a billion times before!"

  • During Balder's song, Pesto still looks perpetually grumpy while Bjørn headbangs to the music. Then we get a shot of her tapping her foot to it, which she notices and then scowls at as if she's warning it not to give her away.

  • When Bjørn asks Balder how his song went so Pesto can learn how to play it, Balder refreshes him on the melody via humming. What makes this funny is the sheer amount of intensity he puts into it.

  • To make his way through the gym, Bjørn has to tickle various people in order to get them to move the weights they're lifting where he needs them to be. Pesto is not enthusiastic about this strategy at all.
    • Later on when the two of them are dealing with Fafnir, Bjørn needs to make him laugh in order to progress. Pesto tells him not to tickle him, as she's all for killing him but tickling is just creepy and weird, making him resort to dragon puns instead.
    • If Bjørn upsets Huldra, he'll need to tickle parts of her tail in order to move it out of the path. Once again, Pesto disapproves of this strategy.
    • There's also a moment from the gym where Bjørn has to use one of his detached arms to tickle someone, getting this line from Pesto...
"Really? You're not gonna react to a SEVERED ARM tickling you?!"

  • However Bjørn decides to help him lift the weight, Andre will be ecstatic and start a vigorous handshake with him (pictured above), saying he'll be his friend forever. Of course, with Bjørn's condition and Andre being Andre, Bjørn's arms get torn off in the process, freaking out the poor guy.
Pesto: Oof...that was his good arm, too...
Andre: Did I...just...rip off your... [runs away screaming, tossing the arms aside]

  • The exchange Bjørn has with the Boarista at Sæhrimnir Café over the fates of the piglets.
Boarista: Yep. And you know what happens when we don't have space for piglets...we start killing them!
Bjørn: Oh no!
Boarista: Yep! That's how it goes! One boar too many and we just kill all of them!
Bjørn: Uuuuuh!...
Boarista: Yep! That's Norse mythology for you! Just slaughtering boars at the drop of a hat. I just wish somebody would adopt one of them. Soon. Before all the killing begins.
Bjørn: I'll see if I can get one adopted!
Boarista: Oh? Yeah, whatever. I mean, all those innocent piglets dying...who cares, right? I'll just get the wood chipper ready soon. You know...to make boar paste. Out of those adorable piglets.
Bjørn: All right, all right! Okay, okay! I get it! Stop! I'll— [as the side quest graphic shows up onscreen] ...yeah, look! Side quest added! Got it! Get a boar adopted. Sheesh!

  • "Okay, I'll admit it, it's getting kinda nippy now..." "NIPPY?! NIPPYYYYYYYYYYY?!? THAT'S NOT EVEN A REAL WORD!!"

  • When they find a bar called "The Laughter Gland", and they're not allowed in because Bjørn is underage:
Pesto: Gosh darn it, Bjoharn. You baby!
Pesto: As I said. Baby.

  • Bjørn receiving Idunn's spare pair of sunglasses when he's tried all of her smoothies.
Idunn: Wow. You have tried every single smoothie I have to offer. That is surprisingly hip of you. But you can't be a smoothie master and run around looking like that. Here, have my spare glasses. Now you can show people how hip you really are.
Bjørn: [now wearing the glasses] Wow! Thanks, Idunn! I'm hip!
Idunn: Ugh, I regret doing that already.
