More Penumbra/Thrilling Adventure Hour parallels.

Juno is Pterodactyl Jones, Nureyev is his Dame and Rita is... Harvey I guess, for the sake of this comparison. Though Nureyev could qualify as both the Dame and Harvey, as he steals his heart and Juno is constantly searching for him (not that he’ll admit it)

And you know Sadie would just pour Juno a proper drink and then just lock them in a room together until they sort their shit out. 

“Remember darling, all dames are thieves but not all thieves are dames. Aren’t you a lucky one?” *clink*

The joint wore sadness like a cheap cologne.

Dame: I'm sorry, but now you must die.

Jones: That's ... the worst apology of all.

Jones: He really wasn't your brother, was he?

Dame: He was.

Jones: Try again, doll.

Dame: He was my husband!

Jones: This guy looks as healthy as any three people I've ever seen, and by "healthy" I mean fat. And by "fat" I mean fat.

Jones: Oh, slow down, doll.

Sadie: How fast was I going?

Jones: About ninety.

Sadie: Suppose I let my foot off the pedal.

Jones: Let's say you hit the brakes.

Sadie: Suppose I hit the gas instead.

Jones: How fast can that thing go?

Sadie: Suppose we find out.

Jones: Seems dangerous.

Sadie: Ain't that just like a dame?

Jones: Took the words right out of my mouth.

Sadie: Suppose I did. You want me to put 'em back in?

Jones: If you promise not to do it the hard way.

Sadie: Is there any other w- Ooh Frank! [giggles] You're right! Talking like this is just infectious!

[stonebutchsunflower]

Jones: Try harder.

Isabel: I can pay.

Jones: Alright, start talking. Let's see how well your lips do when they put to work.

Isabel: Once they start, they tend not to stop.

Jones: And I should take your word for it?

Isabel: You want references?

Jones: I think we're making enough.
