Death might be the sister of adventure. The heart surely thumps the same.
“Quiet villain.
This is the end of the line for you Blackheart.
Not so clever after all, are you?
You thought you were setting a trap for us, but all along it was a trap for you!"
"Ah well, you got me.
Good job."
"We did get you."
"You did. You've done very well."
"Is this another trap?"
"I just want You to feel proud of yourself!”

“Well, what is there to do around here, anyway?"
"Well, here we have World Domination; it builds strategy skills—you can play as a dog, a boot, or a trebuchet."
Bewilder builds language and observation skills..."
"I said I wanted to play VIDEO games."
"Video games are a waste of time."
"And board games AREN'T?
Why do you even have these? No one lives here but you!"
"I used to have some henchmen. Game night was a big hit."
"Henchmen? What happened to them?"
"I can't work with mercenaries. It's impossible to build trust when they only care about their paychecks. "
"Oooh. Let me guess. The Institution paid them off?"
"I don't want to talk about it.”

“What a nice surprise! Come on up! "
"I hope you don't mind—it's urgent."
"Of course not! I was just about to make some tea, do you want some?"
"Doctor, have you... Looked out the window recently?"
"Oh, the fire? Yes, I was wondering about that.
I've got earl grey and oolong. Take your pick!"
"There is no time for that, Doctor. You need to get out of here—it's not safe."
"There's always time for a cup of tea!”
