Scrap: I’ve found an alternate ending to the novel! It will be about an illicit romance with Lilywhite.
Rukiye: LILYWHITE! Of all people, Lilywhite? You could have asked anyone!
Scrap: But it won’t mention the lawsuit.
Rukiye: Good. It shouldn’t mention Lilywhite either. Anyone would be better! Ravil would be better.
Scrap to Ravil: Can I suggest you as my illicit romance to the romance novelist?
Ravil: Will it be paid?
(some back and forth)
Rukiye: Ravil, I will pay you 10 ducats if the book does not mention the lawsuit or a romance with lilywhite and does have a romance between you and Scrap.

Lily Ferris: Sibella, you’re a horrible influence on Kleis and I wish you hadn’t proposed.
Me, suddenly very worried that she shouted this across a large room: uhh…
Someone: Don’t worry about her, she’s on Liar Liar.
Annaliese: Don’t worry, I’ll prove it; Lily, what’s your name?
Lily: Lily Ferris.
Annaliese, obviously perturbed: …what’s my name?
Lily: Uhh…Maisy?
(Cue confusion about Lily’s name)

It’s not a favorite moment per se, but it is a moment. It turns out that under a red engineers light, a black and red surgery bead looks a whole lot like two black surgery beads.

Sibella, walking up to Hobbes: Hey, you have a gun! I’ll mark you down as being fashionable

I had pulled Heyselbright for a conversation and asked if he was interested in the cheese run. He looked longingly up the hill, turned away, then started walking back towards it, saying “If I don’t chase the cheese I’ll regret it for the rest of my life.”

ORANGE SQUATS!
Seeing the cat puzzle solved after spending literally hours myself on it and knowing others spent just as long on it. Herding cats is hard. I can’t remember your name, but whoever solved it is a genius.

On a more somber note, I always forget how staunchly patriotic Sibella is. As soon as the order was given to pull the flag down and we all saluted, I started crying, and I still haven’t stopped. Ravil did help a little by singing quietly next to me.

The entire scene with the romance novel publisher. I loved everyone coming up to her to pitch their own (or other townspeople’s) romance drama, unexpectedly walking into Kleis’s existential crisis over happiness, and workshopping the dramatic arc of Scrap’s fake romance with Ravil for maximum dramatic impact.

I’m torn between a few: the reading of the smut Saturday night, the auxiliary patrol and walking back in on the spring vanishing isle mod after collecting some of the first of the materials needed to preserve the samples and hearing that the creatures had a name but were being referred to as Aetheric Slurries.
On a totally unrelated note those organs are preserved until fall so I guess in winter i’ll find out if its possible to drink that lung sample I have and what it does if it becomes and elixer.
