Can anyone think of more (and funnier!) lines for the Q scene?
Act 2, Scene 3. The Old Wizard’s Lair.
Old Wizard: Thine attention I crave, Naught Naught Seven. This girdle for thine hose thou shalt now take.
Sir James: But not this sustenance?
Old Wizard: Mine meal thou shalt not eat, Naught Naught Seven.
This is the opening bit only, by TB2, C&D, and me- anyone fancy writing some more?
YE GILDED EYE
Act 1, Scene 1. A fortress high atop a mountain, below a lake, below a mountain, on Eastern shores.
(Sir James doth drop like the stone, but in good time is saved by the rappelling cannon, a miraculous invention.)
(A knave sits on the throne)
Sir James: Cry prithee, good sir, mayhap I forgot to knock.
(Sir James takes leave and wanders the corridor. A figure approaches)
Sir James: Alas, I am all alone.
Sir Alexander: In truth, Sir James, each man is but an island. Precede me, Naught Naught Seven.
Sir James: Nay, thou must precede me, Naught Naught Six.
(Enter Baron Ouromov and his men)
Baron Ouromov: Good sirs, show thyselves! Lest ye forget, 'tis madness to attempt escape.
Sir Alexander: Doest thy will, Sir James! To Hades thou must send them! For Albion, Dame Miles and St George!
(Sir James departs upon a winged chariot.)
Intermission. Statues are laid siege by unclothed maidens. A woman from across the sea sings.
Act 2, Scene 2. A gaming house.
Sir James: I am he who is called Bond, James Bond. Three passions do we share.
Countess Onatopp: Truly I hope that thine talent lies with the third, Sir James.
Sir James: My lady, one rises to meet such challenge, like a serpent unto the breast of Eve. Yet may it please thee to answer most fully: is thine accent St Georgian?
Countess Onatopp: Dost thou know it?
Sir James: Verily, in my salad days I did but drop in, yet cannon out, heheh.
Countess Onatopp: Tis a land of opportunity.
Sir James: Yet, thine ambassador has the wrong licence on his hearse.
Countess Onatopp: His hearse?
Sir James: My kingdom for his hearse.
Countess Onatopp: Farewell Sir James, methinks thou'st a knave in chariot licensing.
(The Countess exits)
Act 2, Scene 2. The throne room of Dame Miles.
William Of Tanner (Squire of the Lego Fortress): Indeed it pains me greatly good Sir James, that the Sovereign Witch of Calculation decreed your wisdom and cunning were forestalled.
Dame Miles: Sayest thee?
William Of Tanner: Nay, nay...
Dame Miles: In council of toxic judgement, I will seek an audience and narration of my ward and brethren should it please me master squire.
Sir James: N’er in thine leisure have I seen, thee, Moneypenny, most beguiling you are.
Moneypenny: To linger on great calamity I shall not, Sir James, in faith with a gentleman did I have an assignation.
Sir James: Thou do crush me, Moneypenny.
Dame Miles: Thou lovest me not, Naught Naught Seven, my ways are not thine. A mere tallyman am I, a counter of beans.
Sir James: I have thought this, my liege.
Dame Miles: Thine charms upon me are wasted. Thou be naught but an antiquated dragon, who thinkest I lack the balls for mine job as does this statuette for Best Supporting Actress, yet to thy death I shall send thee with no hesitation.
Two more short scenes from "Ye Gilded Eye", and that's all I have. I could write more, but I'm struggling to make it funny. I would welcome assistance/input with this one... or indeed if anyone wants to start another one!
Act 2, Scene 3. The Old Wizard’s Lair.
Old Wizard: Thine attention I crave, Naught Naught Seven. This girdle for thine hose thou shalt now take.
Sir James: But not this sustenance?
Old Wizard: Nay ‘tis mine repast!
Act 4, Scene 1. A gaol.
Tsar Mischkin: Sit, I prithee, Sir James, the manner of thine death I must consider.
Sir James: No tittle-tattle hath thee, little to pass the time of day
Tsar Mischkin: I seek ye Gilded Eye, impart to me where it shall be found.
Countess Natalya: As youngbloods at play thou art, cease forthwith.

Dame Miles: In the sand I wanteth thee to bury thine head, Naught Naught Seven. And ne’er enter mine bedchamber again!
Sir James: Ne'er shall I, mine leige, until the sky doth fall.
