'''[[AC: Choice of the Dragon]]'''

* The PC and the narrator have a hilarious [[SnarkToSnarkCombat banter]] that practically breaks the fourth wall. Some examples:
-->'''Narrator:''' Will you be male or female?
-->'''PlayerCharacter:''' Do not pester me with such impudent questions!
-->'''Narrator:''' I, ah, I mean yes! Of course! How churlish of me.

-->'''Narrator:''' After all, you did just kidnap the princess from right out of her tower. Although...isn't it a little sexist to always kidnap princesses?
-->'''Player Character:''' Maybe, but tradition demands that dragons kidnap princesses, even if that is sexist.
-->''or''
-->'''Player Character:''' You know, I never thought about that before. In fact, I think I kidnapped a prince, just to avoid being sexist.
-->''or''
-->'''Player Character:''' I'll have you know that I make a careful point of alternating between princes and princesses, but it happened to be time for a princess.

-->'''Narrator:''' Having burned down the village...why did you burn down the village, anyway?
-->'''Player Character:''' To teach them not to anger me!
-->'''Narrator:''' While that is an excellent reason, I can't particularly think of anything they did to anger you, besides existing.

It doesn't shatter on your head, but the close shave actually unnerves you, a professional wrestler, especially when the guards [[NeverMessWithGranny also confiscate a lead pipe from her]].

'''[[AC: Heroes Rise]]'''

* For someone so [[TheTease seductive]] naturally, Black Magic sucks at ''actual'' seduction. Their way of seducing the PC has them using their Powers to make it seem like their apartment is on fire, then calling and asking for help ([[SarcasmMode because a fire is obviously too much for them to handle.]]). The exchange goes something like this:
--> ''(The PlayerCharacter bursts through the window, energy shield up, ready for a search-and-rescue, and finds Black Magic lounging on their bed in lingerie)''
-->'''Black Magic:''' Hey there.
-->''({{Beat}})''
-->'''PlayerCharacter:''' [[FlatWhat What.]]
* In the third game, GG and [[spoiler:Prodigal]]'s interactions. Take one [[CampGay flamboyantly gay]] person, throw him with a flamboyantly crazy person. Wackiness ensues.
-->"You never really thought about what it would be like if GG ever met [[spoiler:Prodigal]]--you can almost see the two of them living in this mansion together, like some twisted pair of Golden Girls."
* Not too long after the above scene, [[spoiler:Prodigal]] goes off to a room to [[ItMakesSenseInContext de-bomb]] [[spoiler:herself]], and Jenny asks GG if it's a good idea letting [[spoiler:her]] lose in his house.
-->'''GG:''' Fret not, I put [[spoiler:Prodigal]] in the guest house for a reason. It's in secure lockdown mode, so I'll know immediately if [[spoiler:she]] tries anything fishy.
-->'''PlayerCharacter:''' And what if [[spoiler:she]] blows [[spoiler:herself]] up?
-->'''GG:''' Well I suppose I have been meaning to update the guest house...
* If you choose to date Black Magic, there's one point where the two of you have a little question-and-answer session. One of the questions you can ask them is [[LampshadeHanging "Why do you look like [insert celebrity here]?"]]



** Another option is to go after [[spoiler:[[KickTheDog JJ's dog]]]]. [[spoiler:You don't actually kill it]], but ''they'' don't know that, and have a [[FreakOut rather hilarious reaction]].
