* Mary Havel explaining to Ingolf how she and Ritva decided who was going to sleep with him, and why. Mary notes that Ingolf is the only real choice (given that Rudi's their brother; Edain doesn't seem particularly interested; Ignatius is a priest with a vow of celibacy; and [[ButtMonkey nobody wants to give Odard the satisfaction]]).

* When a steam engine fails to work as it should, this is regarded as proof that AlienSpaceBats are responsible. Someone shouts, "Those bastards! They're going to wish they'd never heard of us!" Someone else bemoans, "I wish they'd never heard of us now."

* Tiphaine's chagrin in ''The Given Sacrifice'' when Mathilda informs her that "We will give you good lordship ''whether you want it or not!''" is entirely chuckle-worthy.
