GW2 Those Norn and their sayings. XD

[Jordo]

So I have been reading Ghosts of Ascalon...and there is a pretty funny Norn, Gullik Oddson, providing comic relief, at least in my eyes, and i'd like to share some of them with you:

Dougal glanced around, and his eyes fell on Gullik.
He pointed at the norn’s axe and said, “Give me that.”
“You’re as mad as Raven,” said Gullik. “No warrior
gives up his weapon until the fight is finished.”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“You idiot!” Ember screamed at the norn as she
threw herself to her feet. “I only win the argument if I
kill him.”
Gullik gave her a wide and toothy grin. “Then I
suppose that means the winner is me.” He pointed at
the rest of the charr. “Off with the lot of you, now, or
I’ll win arguments with each of you, too!”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

*after someone dodges his swing and his axe lands in a bedpost*

The norn snarled in frustration. “By the Bear!” he
said in a booming, slightly slurred voice. “If you refuse
to release my axe, you damned bedpost, then you will
pay!”
Then he put the bedpost
on the ground and stood on it while he tried to pull his
weapon from it with both hands. The force of his initial
blow had jammed it tight. “Damnation,” he said with an
amused grunt. “I need to learn what kind of wood this is
and make me a suit of armor from it.” Then he laughed
at the concept.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“Wolf’s teeth!” said Gullik, softly. “A charr allowing
a human to put her in chains? I must still be dreaming.”
“I have my orders.” Ember growled out her words.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“If this fails to work, the Ebon
Vanguard will hang me as a spy,” she said,. “But before
I go, I’ll kill anyone responsible for causing that failure.
This I promise.”
“She’s touchy,” Gullik said to Dougal. “But still as
regal as a lioness. I think I like her!”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

That's it for now...I'll be adding more as i come across them....it seems every time he speaks i chuckle out loud. lol

LMFAO brand new one...not even 2 pages in to where i left off...i was laughing out loud on this one:

Gullik - Norn
Kranxx - Asura

“Wolf’s teeth!” said Gullik, a little too loud. “We
should turn this hunt around and kill them all instead!”
“Shush!” Riona said. “They can find us as easily by
sound as sight.”
“Bring them on!” Gullik said, louder than ever. “I will
bathe in their blood!”
Kranxx rapped the norn in the ear. “This is simple
math,” Kranxx said. “There are six of us. Each warband
has up to twenty members. Ember? How many
warbands are there in southern Ascalon?”
The charr answered without looking back. “The Iron
Legion has centered here since being charged with the
siege of Ebonhawke. They and the Blood Legion both
have responsibility for the patrols. Count in some Ash
Legion detachments as scouts. Probably hundreds of
warbands roam the region.”
“Right. That makes for thousands of charr wandering
these lands. What happens when one of them finds us?”
“And they say the asura are as smart as Raven!”
Gullik laughed. “We kill them, of course!”
“I’m sure we will, but what will they do first?” asked
Kranxx.
“Quiver before our might!”
“And?”
“Quake too?”
Frustrated, Kranxx spoke slowly, enunciating each
word. “They’ll make noise. They’ll sound the alarm.
They’ll bring more of their kind.”
“Raven’s eye! I do believe you’re right!” Gullik tried
to keep a straight face.
“So,” Kranxx said ignoring the norn’s bemused
expresion, “discretion is the better part of … ?”
“Battle!”
“Valor,” corrected the asura.
“And why might that be?”
Kranxx grabbed his head with his hands and nearly
fell off of Gullik’s shoulders. “It means that it’s better to
understand what you are up against before you get into
a fight. It involves gathering intelligence, thinking
broadly, and figuring the odds.”
“Fine, friend Kranxx!” Gullik twisted his neck to grin
up in the asura’s direction. “I shall permit you to do the
figuring and to tell me when a battle is too odd!”
