Conversations

Hero	Complete?	Notes	Transcription
Abrams	Yes		McGinnis: Just wanna get this out of the way: I'm gonna be doing my best to support you, but shit happens and if you end up on the wrong side of a spectral wall... I'm sorry. Abrams: That was... very specific. McGinnis: It happens a lot. Abrams: Ha, I picked up on that.
			Abrams: How do you not throw out your back carrying all that stuff? McGinnis: It's lighter than it looks. Souls don't weigh a whole lot.
			Abrams: Just to give you a heads up, I plan on picking... a lot of fights today. McGinnis: Good. I hate people.
Apollo	No		McGinnis: Apollo: No. I'm proud of my father, and he's proud of me.
			McGinnis: Apollo: Then you're gonna be in the thick of it. I tend not to stay in one place for long.
			McGinnis: Apollo: The last thing that I wanna do is work for a human's company. McGinnis: Apollo: I'm neither.
Bebop	Yes		McGinnis: Who made you, Bebop? Bebop: Oh! Ms. Shelly. McGinnis: She looking for a job? Bebop: She's... retired. McGinnis: Well. When you see her, tell her she did great work.
			Bebop: Your commitment to ordinance is impressive, McGinnis! McGinnis: Eh, I like blowing things up. Bebop: Me too.
			McGinnis: So, what sort of bindings did your creator put on you? Bebop: What do you mean? McGinnis: Rules that you're required to follow. Bebop: Like... ethics? McGinnis: More like... the unethical enforcement of ethics. Bebop: Oh, Ms. Shelly doesn't believe in that sort of thing. McGinnis: So, what's stopping you from mowing down humanity with that death laser? Bebop: It would disappoint Ms. Shelly!
Dynamo	Yes		McGinnis: How's that body working out for ya? Dynamo: Splendid, all things considered. McGinnis: Well, if you ever want an upgrade or something, gimmie a call! Dynamo: I appreciate the offer, Miss McGinnis. But hopefully after today, your services won't be needed.
			Dynamo: Have you ever considered being an adjunct professor? McGinnis: No. I'd make a really bad teacher. Dynamo: Why do you think that? McGinnis: I don't know how I do what I do, it just... comes naturally. If I tried to teach someone, it would probably boil down to me saying "Try it again, but don't suck this time!" Dynamo: Good God, you'd be the Lash of academia. McGinnis: You say it like that, I kinda wanna give it a try!
			McGinnis: Neat gun! Dynamo: Thanks. I designed it myself. McGinnis: Did you patent it? Dynamo: No, no. Why do you ask? McGinnis: No reason.
Grey Talon	Yes		McGinnis: You know they make things like "guns", if you ever wanna step into the 20th century. Grey Talon: I see charm is not one of your talents. McGinnis: Charm doesn't win fights. You know what does? Guns. Which you don't have. Grey Talon: I'll be fine.
			McGinnis: If you start smelling burnt toast, let me know. Grey Talon: Excuse me? McGinnis: In case you have a stroke. Grey Talon: For God's sake... McGinnis: I'm not even being an asshole here, there's a non-zero chance you fall and break a hip or something and if you do, I'm gonna have to step in. Grey Talon: Don't worry about me.
			McGinnis: So what's your deal, "Murder Grandpa"? Grey Talon: Be quiet. McGinnis: Someone's touchy. Grey Talon: I won't ask you again.
Haze	Yes		McGinnis: After the ritual, you think the OSIC is gonna pack up shop? Haze: No. I think they'll open a permanent office. With all the activity going on, I'm shocked they haven't sooner. McGinnis: Planning on transferring up here? Haze: I'll go wherever they need me.
			Haze: Were you working for FI when the whole Cadenza situation was going down? McGinnis: Yeah... that was a little intense. Haze: I assume Fairfax wasn't thrilled. McGinnis: Honestly, the rest of us were more rattled than he was. I was just a kid freaking out 'cause I thought I was going to lose my job but, Fairfax was surprisingly calm. I don't think he expected Cadenza to last forever. He just wanted to make the most out of an opportunity before legislation caught up. Plus, the guy gets to say he created one of the United States! Haze: When you're someone who cares about legacy as much as he does, that's probably more valuable than money. McGinnis: Exactly.
			McGinnis: I'll box them in for you, Haze. Haze: Just make sure you don't box me out. McGinnis: Hey, what's gonna happen's gonna happen!
Holliday	Yes		Holliday: What's it like working for Fairfax? McGinnis: You ever work with rich people? Holliday: Nah, I'm from Central Illinois. I just assume they're assholes with god complexes. McGinnis: Eh, pretty close.
			Holliday: You were that kid genius, right? McGinnis: Yeah. Holliday: How that worked out for you? McGinnis: I'm the lead engineer for the occult industrial complex? Holliday: So... good?
			Holliday: How long you think you'll stay with Fairfax Industries? McGinnis: I don't know. Probably until I get bored or open some portal to hell and die? Holliday: Pretty specific. McGinnis: Eh, I think about it a lot.
Infernus	Yes		Infernus: You wanna swing by the bar afterwards to celebrate? McGinnis: Nah, Jezebel's not my scene. Too fancy. Infernus: Hank'll pick up the tab. McGinnis: I'm in!
			McGinnis: We're gonna make short work of those Guardians. Infernus: You know it.
			McGinnis: Where's your gun? Infernus: I don't need one. McGinnis: No one "needs" a gun, it just makes surviving a firefight significantly more likely! Infernus: Don't worry about me, McGinnis. It'll be fine.
Ivy	Yes		Ivy: Carlos says Fairfax Industries is bad for the country. McGinnis: And if Carlos paid my mortgage, I might care what he had to say.
			Ivy: How can you work at Fairfax Industries? McGinnis: First up is asking for an application. Ivy: Oh, I don't want to work there. McGinnis: Ohh, so you wanted to have moral superiority over someone you just met. Ivy: I... I guess so. McGinnis: Yeah. Don't do that.
			McGinnis: I read about you in the paper. Thanks for making New York a little better. Ivy: Thanks.
Kelvin	Yes		Kelvin: I've watched your career from afar, Miss McGinnis. Very impressive. McGinnis: Thanks! You can drop the "Miss", though. Feel free to call me McGinnis, or Maggie... really, anything that makes me feel like I'm not in a boardroom. Kelvin: I'll keep that in mind.
			McGinnis: I'm looking forward to working with you, Kevin. Kelvin: Kelvin. McGinnis: That's what I said. Kelvin: I'm pretty sure you said "Kevin". McGinnis: Pssh... No. Kelvin: Yes. McGinnis: I think I know what I said. Kelvin: I think you do too.
			McGinnis: Hope your back's strong, because we are gonna be carrying this team. Kelvin: Uhh, let's not get ahead of ourselves. McGinnis: C'mon, it's just you and me. We're the two people that are gonna be keeping everyone alive, right? Kelvin: Hm, it does seem likely. McGinnis: Then let's have some healthy arrogance! Kelvin: We're gonna do quite well! McGinnis: We can work on this.
Lady Geist	Yes		McGinnis: I don't know how you do it. Lady Geist: You'd be surprised what you're capable of when the only other option is death. McGinnis: Oh, I wasn't talking about murder. I was talking about pretending to be interested in people at fundraisers. I've seen you work the room at Fairfax's parties, it's... something else. Lady Geist: Oh. Johann dragged me to hundreds of those before. It's second nature. McGinnis: Is that your husband? Lady Geist: Was.
			Lady Geist: Ugh. You smell of motor oil and labor. McGinnis: That's because I work for a living! Lady Geist: How fun for you. McGinnis: Yeah, turns out being a human being is good for the soul. You should try it sometime.
			McGinnis: You're dressed practically. Lady Geist: Ah. Wit. McGinnis: Seriously, how do you think you're gonna fight in that? Lady Geist: Your concerns are as unwanted as they are unneeded. Watch and learn.
		Unlocked in Geist's visual novel	McGinnis: You remember what you need to do? Lady Geist: Collect souls, power gauntlet, summon Patron... live forever. McGinnis: You got it. Lady Geist: Thank you, McGinnis. McGinnis: You know, that actually sounded sincere. Way to go, Lady Geist!
Lash	Yes		Lash: Ahh, so The Lash is working with the kid genius. McGinnis: I was a kid over a decade ago. Now I'm just a genius. Lash: No need to get defensive, McG. McGinnis: No need for pet names, "Lash-hole". Lash: I like you.
			Lash: Are you ready to watch greatness in action? McGinnis: Are you?
			McGinnis: You can go over my walls, right? Lash: You talkin' metaphorical or literal? McGinnis: I'm amazed you know what either of those words mean. Lash: Maggie Mac... If you wanna say you got a crush on The Lash, you don't have to pull my hair, you can just say so. McGinnis: Shut up.
Seven	Yes		Seven: All your brilliance is wasted toiling for Fairfax. McGinnis: Not wasted. I'm getting paid a fortune! Seven: So you're content with being a wage slave. McGinnis: Pretty much. Seven: How depressing.
			McGinnis: You ever take that thing off? Seven: It's impossible. McGinnis: For someone who likes to talk about having no limits, you sure seem quick to give up the ghost on that one. Seven: Hmm. McGinnis: When this is over, come find me.
			Seven: You were a prodigy, McGinnis. McGinnis: I still am. Seven: Now I think it's safe to say you plateau'd. McGinnis: I'm sorry, what did you say? Seven: You are a woman who executes pedestrian ideas at the highest level. That makes you a master craftsman, but far from a visionary.
Wraith	Yes		Wraith: You're Fairfax's pet genius, right? McGinnis: I'm no one's "pet" anything. Wraith: Bad choice of words. McGinnis: Little bit. Wraith: Suppose now's not the time to ask for an introduction? McGinnis: You'd be correct.
			Wraith: Bet your turrets can't keep up with me. McGinnis: You're on.
			Wraith: You know, I'm used to working with people that are a little more subtle. McGinnis: You have four arms and a tommy gun, "subtle" is the last word I'd use. Wraith: Subtlety is on a spectrum. McGinnis: Okay.
Yamato	No		McGinnis: Yamato: Your American arrogance is insufferable.
			Yamato: You will keep me alive. McGinnis: Yamato: You will keep me alive. McGinnis: Yamato: Someone is giving you an order.
			Yamato: You build war machines. McGinnis: Yamato: ...But mostly war machines.

		McGinnis, you are beginning to annoy me!
		Blasted Machine!

Haze	Kill	Your turrets couldn't save you.
		Only a coward hides behind machines.
		Impressive mind, frail spirit.
		McGinnis, you've had your chance to make the right choice.
		Today, you reap what you sowed, McGinnis.
	Destroys turrets	You expect those turrets to fight for you?
		Build as many of those machines as you want: they won't help you.
		Your tin soldiers aren't holding up, McGinnis.
Holliday	Kill	All that talent, wasted.
		Sorry, McGinnis.
		McGinnis is down!
		Those machines didn't work out like you thought they would, huh?
		It'll take more than some turrets to stop me.
	Destroys turrets	Took out another turret!
		She keeps making those damn turrets!
		How many of these damn things does she have?!
	Ping (see)	The engineer's here!
Infernus	Kill	Stopped McGinnis!
		I took out McGinnis. (Alt: Fairfax industries is overpayin' you.)
		I thought you'd be tougher.
		You got all the hardware, but none o' the talent.

		Turret's down!

		I'll deal with McGinnis' little toys!

		I've been cut off!
Lash	Kill	McGinnis, when ya gonna learn?
		If Bebop can't stop me, your little wind up toys aren't getting it done.
		Too bad, McG! You just don't got what it takes.
		You'd think a genius would know better than to pick a fight with the Lash.
		Took out McGinnis.
Mina	Kill	I'm better than you, McGinnis.
		Some genius she turned out to be.
		If I cared about science, went to engineering school, and actually applied myself?.. I could have been you.

		I don't get why people think she's a big deal.
	Destroys turrets	I'll smash every one of her machines!
		I'm gonna kill Fairfax's little pet genius!
		I hate McGinnis' little toys!
Mirage	Kill	Ms. McGinnis, your time in the sun has passed.
		I smashed her tools of war.
		McGinnis is no longer a threat.
		Ingenuity alone was never gonna be enough to stop me.
		Fairfax Industries have failed to impress.

		I wonder how many more of these I'll have to destroy?

		She keeps putting up these damn turrets!
		Place as many as you want, McGinnis, we'll smash them all!
Paige	Kill	Took out McGinnis!
		You know, when I woke up today, I didn't expect to fight against the Occult Industrial Complex.
		And I thought my brother was a curmudgeon.
		I hope Fairfax Industry still plans on donating to the library.
		Those turrets were only gonna get you so far, McGinnis.
Paradox	Kill	I want your research, McGinnis.
		What secrets are you hiding for Fairfax, McGinnis?
		I'm gonna rob that woman blind!
		How long did you think you could hide from Paradox?
		Your time is runnin' short, McGinnis!
	Destroys turrets	The turrets aren't gettin' it done, McGinnis
		She can keep throwin' them down, and I'll keep breakin'em.
		How many of these damn things is she carrying?
Pocket	Kill	Tell my father to go to hell.

		You're complicit, McGinnis.
		Fairfax Industries needs to die.
Rem	Kill	She builds toys!
		I think she snuggles with metal.

		McGinnis is down.

		I took out McGinnis.

		Removing McGinnis' support!
		McGinnis relies too much on these things.
Shiv	Kill	All the toys in the world wouldn't make the difference.

		I killed their engineer!
		If I don't see another turret again, it will be too soon.
Silver	Kill	Go cry to Daddy Fairfax, McGinnis.
		She's smart. Dead, but... smart.

		I don't know what to tell you, McGinnis... science kinda sucks.
	Destroys turrets	How many of these things does she have?
		I'll break as many of these as I have to.
		How does she keep having more of these?
Venator	Kill	Your tools of war won't be enough, McGinnis.
		Fairfax isn't God, McGinnis.
		The avarice of Fairfax Industries ends today.
		I took down McGinnis.
		Pride will make a loser out of anyone.
	Destroys turrets	I'll tear through your little horde of machines.
		Ngh... McGinnis's damn turrets.
		I tire of McGinnis's inventions!
Victor	Kill	Took out McGinnis.
		Stopped the engineer.
		At least she had the dignity to die with her creations.
		Hope she wasn't my creator...
		Didn't even pop a stitch.
	Destroys turrets	I'll smash your machines!
		I'm sick of dealing with these damn turrets.
		How many of these damn things does she have?
Vindicta	Kill	I ended McGinnis!
		Sorry, miss McGinnis. This isn't your day.
		Her inventions are novel, but not enough.
		She was a brilliant mind, but brilliance does precious little against a bullet.
		I stopped their engineer.
Viscous	Kill	Stopped the McGinnis!
		I killed a morally compromised scientist!
		Fairfax Industries doesn't hire good people.
		You're kind of a monster, McGinnis.
		Fairfax Industries has a lot to answer for.
	Destroys turrets	Those turrets weren't goo resistant!
		I'll destroy as many turrets as I can!
		I got another of McGinnis' turrets!
Vyper	Kill	Alright, well, whatever she's making, she's overpaid.
		Oh, some genius she turned out to be.
		Not your day, McG!
		Maggie Mac ain't shit!
		McGinnis, you aren't ready for someone like me!
Warden	Kill	Man was never meant to play God, McGinnis.
		Fairfax Industries needs to fall.
		Your inventions cannot save you.
		McGinnis won't be bothering us for a while.
		Dropped McGinnis!
	Destroys turrets	You don't have enough turrets to stop me!
		These machines' the best you can muster?!
		Plant all the turrets you want McGinnis, I'll destroy them all!
Wraith	Kill	Takes more than machines to stop me.
		Fairfax needs better help.

		Don't need to worry about McGinnis for a while.
		And she thought she was sooo smart.
	Destroys turrets	I'll tear down all your machines, McGinnis.
		How many of these things does she have?!
		Another turret down.
