Final Fantasy IV in a Nutshell
by Iris Amergin

 

Cecil: Killing innocent people sucks.
King: You're fired. Take this package to Mist.
Cecil: Gee, it's a big dragon!
Computer: Do not attack when mist or breath will freeze you!
Kain: Huh?
Cecil: I think that's the badly translated AI trying to give us a hint.
Dragon: Ow...croak.
Rydia: You killed my mommy! You suck! TITAN!
Titan: Rar!
Cecil: Ow, that was one mother of an earthquake. And where the heck is Kain?
Soldier: Die!
Cecil: Die!
Rydia: OK, nevermind, you don't suck.

 

Tellah: Hello! I am a clueless old man who is trying to interrupt my daughter's attempt to find true love! Now we shall fight Octomamm!
Octomamm: Rar!
Cecil: Die!
Tellah: Oh no! Damcyan has been bombed and...ANNA! Ah-ah! You spoony bard! (I love that line...)
Anna: Don't hurt my boyfriend!...oops, I die now.
Edward: Waaah!
Tellah: You suck.
Rydia: Quit being a wuss.
Cecil: Let's go get the SandRuby!
Antlion: Rar!
Edward: Aah!
Rydia: Yah! We did it!
Rosa: Thanks for curing my fever! Now, I will tag along with you because I am a lovestruck obsessive dweeb!

Rosa: Eek!
Cecil: You suck!
King: Take this boat to Baron! Oh, and have a sword too.
Edward: Whoa! I'm overboard!
Rydia: Gee, me too!
Yang: Wait for me!

 

Cecil: You all suck. How did I end up on this beach?
Elder: Go become a paladin or that temperamental black wizard outside will turn you into a frog. And take these annoying kids with you.
Palom: Hi, we're here to spy on you!
Porom's fist: POW!
Cecil: What's Tellah doing here?
Tellah: Joining you!
Palom: Adults suck.
Light: Justice is not the only right and blah blah blah. Have a sword.
Tellah: Dude, I learned Meteo! And my maximum MP is too low to cast it!
Elder: Back to Baron with you!
Cecil: Let's have a drink in this peaceful relaxing cafe!
Yang: Rar!
Cecil: Dammit, don't you remember me?
Yang: Oops, sorry.

 

Cecil: Look, it's Baigan! Even though he kicked me out, I'm treating him like a friend because I'm hopelessly naive and trusting!
Baigan: Nice to see you again...rar!
King: Hi, I'm really Kainazzo...rar!
Cecil: Oops, we're gonna die!
Palom & Porom: STONE!
Cecil: Aight, nevermind.
Cid: This is my airship! Ain't she a beaut?
Kain: Gimme the crystal or Rosa gets it!
Cecil: NOOO!!!....by the way, you suck.
Cecil: Gee, even though giving Golbez the Crystal of Earth will probably condemn the world to darkness, I guess I have no choice, because my girlfriend is the important thing! Let's go to Toroia!

 

Guard: Eew...men...well, I guess we have to let them in.
Cleric: Uh, sorry. The Dark Elf has the crystal, but you can go get it for us!
Cecil: Er...okay. Hey, look, Edward's alive!
Edward: Here, take my harp.
Dark Elf: MWAH HA HA! NOW YOU DIE!
Harp: Tra la la!
Dark Elf: AUGHH! You suck!
Cecil: Well, here's the crystal! Let's go hand it over to the bad guys!
Golbez: Ooh, thanks. But I was kidding. You don't get your girl back.
Cecil: You suck!
Tellah: METEO!
Golbez: Ow! I'm leaving, you bullies!
Cid: Oh no. The old nag seems to be dead.
Cecil: But Kain is sane again and we're getting Rosa back, so it's okay!
Valvalis: I think not! Die!
Kain: Take this! And put on some actual clothing while you're at it, wench!
Valvalis: You suck!

 

Cecil: Well, I guess the world is doomed.
Kain: No, luckily there are four more crystals.
Cecil: Dang. I was hoping the game was over now.
Kain: Well, there're these crystals we need to find, and ah, they're underground.
Cid: How? Dig a hole?
Kain: Well, there's this rock here, and you're supposed to do something with it.
Cecil: Let's go to Agart and chuck it in the well.
Rosa: How did you ever guess?
Cecil: It's in the instruction manual. Wow, look, it worked! Let's go in!

Queen Eblan: Edge!
King Eblan: We shall kill you!
Queen: Oh, nevermind, we're sane now. Bye.

Rosa: *sniffle*
Edge: You suck, Rubicant! Now we fight!
Rubicant: Ow...I die now.

 

Cecil: Oops, we fell into a trap.
Edge: Let's steal this airship and go. But it's a bad one!
Cid: I'll fix it!
Kain: Weren't you dead?
Cid: Well, I got better.
Cecil: Now we can go to all those other places!
Yang: ...
Leviatan: Grr! Wow! You're tough!
Asura: Well, uh, you can call us...but not between 4 and 5 pm, 'k?
Cecil: Well, we'd better get that crystal now.
Edge: Die, you stupid trapped wall!
Golbez: Hey Kain, I'm not done hypnotizing you yet.
Kain: Ten four, supreme evil overlord sir! I steal crystal!
Cecil: You SUCK.

FuSoYa: Yo! Let's go save the world!
Giant: Grr!
Rydia: Screeeam!
FuSoYa: We must destroy the computer!
