"Yep. Once again, wanton destruction has solved all my problems."

My Mon Cal demolitionist, having lured his pursuer into an ambush:
"This isn't a dead end, you Imperial goon. IT'S A TRAP!" *KA-BOOM*
"Something to remember me by."
- "Catrinna", Black Sun cyborg spy, having just vibroknifed the party's "face" in the face.
It resulted in a Gruesome Injury.
To his Presence.
Which he had just taken Dedication towards.
And this is out-of-character, but...
"So it's a MacGuffin inside a MacGuffin inside a MacGuffin?
"MacGuffinception!?!"
Scene: The Jango Fett arena in Mos Eisley, Tatooine.
Jabba the Hutt is presenting a 6 on 6 blaster pistol duel-to-the-death. 6 Klatooinian Commandos versus 6 scruffy smugglers.
"Let the fight commence!"
The Drall smuggler then yells, "What are the rules?"
(The same Drall intellectual who previously bet against his team at 1:2 odds in the upcoming "Duel-to-the-Death")
good one liners are difficult to pull off in a tabletop RPG because they require such fast/snappy thought. bravo to anyone who can get even 1 in 3 or 4 sessions!
thinking of one-liners: state the ironic, state the obvious, use cliches, play off stereotypes ("and i thought all wookies..."), don't be afraid to sound a little cheesy.
Some quotes from our gaming sessions.
"Drugs don't sell themselves Master!"
- JM-4496(PC Assassin Droid with a predilection towards harming organics with harmful substances, and axe to the face)
"Its not a Purse! Its for carrying Grenades!"
-Rocan Selbus(PC Bounty Hunter responding to comments regarding him making a Bag out of Trex's Wampa Skin rug)
"Here is my authorization"
-Rocan Selbus(reply to droid guarding the hanger of the Krayt Fang just before burying his Vibroknife in its chestplate)
Not exactly a one liner, but we had a funny situation.
So 3 of our group members were playing in a high stakes Sabacc game(1k bets)
My character lost one round and was going to dip into our communal funds to keep playing.
Then JM-4496(who wasn't playing) made a successful coercion roll to stop me.
"No Master, you may not use communal funds in games of chance. Must I break your fingers?"
Overall, my character did come away 500 creds richer. The other 2 of our PCs however walked away with around 4k each.
Edited by ZachAttackNot EotE but I can easily seeing it happen with a despair result.
*Party is being taken in by soldiers, party tank mouths off*
Soldier: *swings shock club, misses horribly, shock club explodes in his hand.*
PC: "You guys are really bad at this."
Another one just last night, from a longtime player having his first Edge game. He promptly decided to pawn off a crime boss's fine china for gambling money. When confronted with the potential consequences of his actions, he replied:
"Gand don't give no $#^!"
-Gand, PC Gand Fringer
Some of the one-liners need the proper leadup:
"You mean I'm getting paid to steal droids?!"
"You're going to have to give them back to the real owner, though."
"But I get to steal DROIDS!"
--Tinni Ro, Jawa Mechanic, with Re'lan, Twi'lek Scoundrel
"Well, that's kinky. Weird, but kinky."
--Zhamek, Dashade Medic, regarding an Imperial Officer having. . ."relations" with a shi'do.
"Why are we flying through the asteroid field?!"
"Why shouldn't we by flying through an asteroid field?!"
--Crispus, Human Bodyguard ("deceased") and Re'lan, Twi'lek Scoundrel.
"When we get into orbit, I'm kicking his @#$ out the airlock."
"I'll help."
--Tinni Ro and Zhamek, speaking about Crispus.
"Don't worry, I know a guy there!"
Twenty minutes later, after arriving at the destination and things don't go as planned.
"I said I know a guy. I didn't say that he liked me!"
--Re'lan, Twi'lek Scoundrel
'What do you mean mean they are angry at us? We told them about the spy and the tracking device.'
'You went to the Seps for money and a job, took the Imps money and job, crawled back to the Seps for more money, ... why should they not think you crawled back to the Imps for even more money?'
Eric, the Captain of the Rusty Bean complaining to the GM why the Seps do not trust them
'Armor is overrated.'
Hanhar, Wookie Marauder
'I need better armor'
Hanhar, Wookie Marauder after receiving several blaster hits
When asked if she could fix the Strain that the ship took from an attacking TIE Fighter, Chix (Driver/Mechanic) tossed her lekku and responded "I can fix anything!"
The next character in initiative destroys the TIE Fighter and Chix jerks her thumb towards the window "...except that."
GM: "Anybody want to buy equipment?"
Hired Gun Heavy:"All I need is some tissues and a s**t load of animal porn!"
From a game I was spectating:
"I go wild in his mouth!" (team's close combat monkey ended up in the maw of a giant beast... he didn't realise the other connotations of what he was saying when he said it)
