The Legend of Vox Machina quotes

Scanlan

(to Kaylie as they enter a room) And then, I disguised us all as cows! (he and Kaylie laugh) I know. Brilliant, right?

Tell me, Scanlan Shorthalt, how did you, of all people, find yourself overthrowing tyrants and slaying dragons?

Scanlan

(smacks lips as he lays in the bed wearing his undies) Ah, you know, I mean, the life of an entertainer brings endless adventure, freedom, and exploration.

Ooh, that sounds fun. But do you know what's even more fun?

Scanlan

Ooh, bondage? Me like-y. (chuckles as Kaylie ties up his arms) Also not opposed to being called daddy if the mood suits, hmm?

I've been wanting to do this for a while now.

Scanlan

Ooh. Do you, uh... Do you feel that? That's chemistry. And we have it.

We sure have something.

Scanlan

So, uh, tell me about yourself, beautiful Kaylie, eyes like the Marquesian sun.

I'm actually not too different from yourself. I grew up in Kymal, but I moved around a lot.

Scanlan

(Kaylie tightens his right arm) Ooh.

My mum gave up all her savings for my education.

(chuckles) Uh, oh, oh, yeah? Moms are the best.

(chuckles) Mine certainly was. You know, Dr. Dranzel spun many a tale about you, Scanlan Shorthalt.

Scanlan

Yeah, I mean, that's not surprising. That guy seemed like a bit of a fanboy.

But most of his stories I'd already heard... from my mother.

Scanlan

Huh. You, uh... You must make her quite, quite proud? (Kaylie laughs devilish, as Scanlan laughs nervously) Yeah.

Aye. She would be proud. (draws a blade) Proud I'm finally meeting the silver-tongued devil who whispered empty promises in her ear, then disappeared. Leaving her with nothing but a song. And me.

Scanlan

Wait... I'm daddy?!

Scanlan

I'm starting to think that the worst things in life come from fear, but... maybe the best things do, too. You don't get to choose your part in the play, but a true performer commits anyway.

Vax'ildan

The Matron of Ravens. She's in my head, calling. So I thought I'd try answering.

We'll come with you. I put you in this place.

No one put me here, and I need to find these answers on my own.

Do not go far from me.

Champion. Vax'ildan. You've come at last.

Vax'ildan

My sister lives. That debt will be paid. What do you want? My life? My soul? Or am I to be your puppet?

The Threads of Fate are not puppet strings. They connect life to destiny. You are fate-touched, able to see and bend the threads around you.

(after rescuing Scanlan from dragon breath) You trying to get yourself killed?

Scanlan

Sorry, I just... I got shit to prove.

You? I found out I'm the champion of the Matron of Ravens.

Scanlan

I found out I'm a father.

You win.

Scanlan

(to Umbrasyl) You leave when Scanlan Shorthalt tells you to leave.

Vax'ildan

(to the Matron of Ravens, while plummeting from the flying Umbrasyl) I'm in your hands, and I am no longer afraid.

Do you have any final words before you join my service?

Percy

I do, but the ones I would want to hear them are absent.

Your concerns are appreciated, brother, but I've been running this city for quite some time now. Gilmore has managed to make his cloaking spell more or less permanent, Yennen tells me this year's Harvest Festival will be well-attended [Percy's attention is taken by the sight of Vex], and the ranks of the Pale Guard are up to pre-Briarwood levels. I assure you, we'll be fine.

Percy

Mmmhmm...

[notices Percy's attention on Vex and not her] In fact, while you're gone, perhaps I'll cut down the Sun Tree and build an extravagant canoe.

Percy

[still distracted] Right, sounds lovely.

[approaches them] Big day tomorrow. Everything all right?

Percy

Uh...Yes, o-of course. Uh, we were just discussing, uh...

Canoes.

I see. [to Percy, who starts to blush] Well, if you want to update me on the, um, "canoe" situation, I'll be up for a bit. [Walks off, Percy watching her, still with a light blush. Cassandra notices]

You're smitten.

Percy

So what if I am? [adjusts his glasses] It's not like I can act on it.

Brother, women are not some mysterious code. When one invites you to her room, you go. [turns Percy and pushes him in the direction of Vex]

She has no idea what courses through her veins. No matter. The seed of doubt has been planted and will fill her heart with vengeance, as we watch it grow.

Your orders?

Leave her. Kill the rest. We are his blood. The time for his ascension draws near.
