"Say, does Enlarge work on a Sphere of Annihilation?"

"You wouldn't mind if I took the carpet for a trip over a weekend, would you?"

"Was that rune inscribed on the cage in the other room important?"

"Want some help?"

"Could you come down here? I mean, Like right now?"

"Quick!! How does one unsummon a demon lord?"

"I wonder what this wand does?" *as the apprentice waves it around*

"Ah, Remember that demon that you had imprisoned down in the cellar? Well..."

"Oooops!!"

"Question, was I supposed to light the candles around the pentagram?"

"You mean those fancy sticks in the case weren't kindling?"

"YESSS, I finally shot that owl that's been following you around!"

"HHHHHHHEEEEEEEELLLLLLLPPPPPPP!"

"By the way, what's the reverse of summon?"

"Ya know, that fire wand only had 25 charges left on it!"

"Say, how do you control something once it gets out of the pentagram?"

"The warding circle for this demon wasn't continuous before, was it?"

"What happens if I mix these two potions together?"

"So this wand fires a fireball, and all I have to do is point it at something and say Braxat'?"

"How was I supposed to know she was a succubus?"

"You wouldn't happen to have a banishment spell memorized... Oh, ah, no reason...."

"Oh-oh."

"Did I, ah, err?"

"But you didn't tell me that I COULDN'T do that!"

"Hey, I bet I can do that better than you can!"

"Study?!? I'm too good for that?"

"When do I get to make things go BOOOOOMM?"

"Oh, that component was worth THAT much?"

"Work? Why? I summoned your demon to do it! ... Of course I erased the pentagram! What do you think I am, an idiot?"

"But you said this was supposed to be foolproof!"

"I don't understand!"

"I thought you said, "To give him a Cone of Cold" not "Coin of Gold"!"

"Hey, just who do you think you are, my teacher?"

"What kind of glue do you use to fix a DragonOrb?"

"Master, I kind of forgot to feed your familiar, and well... say do you need a new muff!"

"Wow, those books with the blue binders do burn!

"Uhh… You know that nubile virgin you bought in last night? Well, we started talking and… uhh… Well, one thing led to another...."

"Hey look, Master! I saw this nice globe of crystal lying around, so I cut off the top and now I can keep Gandulf, my goldfish, in it!"

"Hey, what's in this bottle? * POP * Uhh... oh-oh..."

"Sorry about that, Master. I promise I won't wave your wand around again, Ah, Master, Master, Hmm… what's this frog doing here?"

"Master, is this pronounced 'HAStur HAStur HAStur' or 'HasTUR HasTUR HasTUR'?'

"Oh, that, I threw it away."

"I wish I knew what this scroll that says Wish does. OH, IS DOES THAT, WOW THAT WAS COOL!"

"Hey, Catch!"

"This weird guy with horns and stuff came looking for you. He asked if Razzlefratz was in. I told him no, and said that your name was Durkin. That seemed to make him really happy."

"Umm...you might not want to go in the basement."

"Hey, where did I put the top to this Decanter of Endless Water?"

"Remember how you told me not to lie anymore? Well, Elminster stopped by to say hello, and I told him how you always say how he is a, talent-less, old bag of wind. He would like to have a word with you tomorrow at the Blasted Lands."

"Was that your Staff of Power? Well that end table in the den needed a new leg, and you told me to fix it..."

"I wish you'd tell me how this Luck Blade worked! Cool! Just like that scroll did"

"Psst, Master... I forgot to mention that my cloak dragged off some chalk on the five-pointed star that the demon is standing in now..."

"Did you ever wonder what black cats tasted like? * BURP *"

"You know, this Erhdolt's Endurable Eraser really works! That fancy book over there only needed a few rubs of it before all the writing was gone."

"Sir, you will be pleased with what I have just done. I have sent all those old and dusty tomes to the recycling center!"

"Ah... Master, was that by any chance a Reverse Gravity scroll you left lying around in your lab?"

"But Master, I did my best to make you invisible during the parade! How would I know it would just affect your robes?"

"Uh, Master, why was this mirror lying face-down on your table? Master? Master? Gee, where'd he go?" (Scratches head)

"Hey, Master, guess what? I tidied up your scrolls. Yeah, I put them all in this bag I found in your closet!" (Bag burps.)

"Master, uh, you know your alchemy lab? How much do you suppose it would cost to get a new one?"

"Master, what's the command to make the magic carpet go back down? You don't remember? Uh, will you be needing your familiar any time soon?"

"Oh, THAT was your familiar?"

"Okay, I put the fire resistance potions in the red bottles, and the cold resistance potions in the blue. Or was it the other way around?" (While facing a Dragon, of course)

"I thought this spell required the Star of David..."

"Okay, I put the glyph of fear on the foyer door and the fire trap on the library door. Then I set up the guards and wards spell, Then the Maze spell..."

"The top of this iron bottle seems to be stuck..."

"I had the Unseen Servant put the bags of holding in the portable hole."

"There is an Undead Anti-Paladin to see you sir..."

"There was a tiny pesky flying lizard around here, but I put out poisoned meat for it..."

"You mean the meat on the table was… ahem. Sir, please be more careful with your last finger..."

"Uhh… I seem to have forgotten to bring the Manual of Mighty and Marvelous Magic on our voyage, Master. Will the Guide to Growing Great Geraniums do?"

"Swallow SPIDERS? ALIVE?"

"Uhh… Master, sorry to disturb your scroll-writing. You wouldn't possibly have seen my bottle of invisible-ink, would you?"

(Loudly) "WHAT AN GREAT ILLUSION, MASTER! THAT STUPID STORM GIANT WILL NEVER FIGURE THAT ONE OUT!"

"Did you ever wonder why so few wizards know the 'erase' spell, Master?"

"How was I to know that Summon Swarm could call up bookworms?"

"I managed to learn the Levitate spell, Sir. Now, without looking down, could you tell me how to control it?"

"Did the scare spell work, Master? Hmm… you look kind of pale..."

"I shall make sure that my shocking grasp is dissipated before touching the Master… I shall make sure that my shocking grasp is dissipated before touching the Master… I shall make sure..."

"Uhh... sorry for falling asleep, Master. Now, could you do that spell ONE more time?"

"Well, Master, I finally managed to learn the enlarge spell. Now, could you tell me how one gets rid of a 50' rat?"

"Master, what should I wish for?"

"Say, where does a teleported spellbook go?"

"Hey...where'd the left tower go?"

"Smell something you said? Smoke? Nah, there's no smell of smoke here. No need for you to go into the basement either. He he he. I'll just go downstairs with this wand of fire extinguishing for, you know, target Practice."

"Riddeeeep*! Riddeeeep*! Riddeeeep*!" (*HEEEEEELLLLLLPPPP!)

"Excuse me sir but, theoretically, what would happen if someone summoned, ohhh, lets say a major demon from the 376 level of the Abyss?"

"With this staff in my possession I shall now rule the world! HA HA HA HHA!"

"Ah sir? You know that elemental you had in your control?"

*Tapping his master on the shoulder* "I was wondering sir, what is the best way to stop a charging dragon?"

Dang, just woke up all 8 red dragons and the exits on the other side of the lair, sure wish my master was here *while playing with ring he just picked up.* "MASTER, I was just thinking about you!"

*someone's at the door* "No, he's been alone in his room with that fancy sword for a few days now... Sure, I'll go get him for you!"

"Master, I have good news, I seem to have finally perfected my taunt spell. The bad news is that the Duke is at the front gates with his elite guard. Could you please tell him I'm sorry?"

"We're all out of candles, so I used lanterns to surround the pentacle instead."

"Master, watch out for the pit I just covered with my Phantasmal Force!"

"Aahh, you didn't have a potion rack, did you?"

"That vial of mead you were making tasted REALLY good!"

"Why did the writing on that book disappear while I was reading it?"

"Hey look! These Dragon scales make a really neat jacket!"

"What happens if I read the Meteor Swarm spell from this scroll and point at you?"

"WHAT pentagram?"

"Sorry about the bookworms, Master."

"Oh, that potion! Nope, never saw it. Uurrp"

"Next time, I'll make sure to point that wand the other way."

"It's just coffee. A little soap, some warm water, a clean rag and your book will be as good as new!"

"That nice wizard from across town paid me 200 Silver Coins to deliver this box to you. It must be some kind of clock!"

"Don't feel bad, master, at least the OTHER demon didn't break free!"

"That moldy old cloak? I sold it to some peddler for a few coppers."

"Gee, master, you kinda remind me of that other wizard, ah, what's-his-name, -Gargamel!"

"I tried to stop him, master, but he got away from me and headed straight for your bookcase!"

"Well, your familiar and I got to discussin' politics, and dern if he didn't say a few things that got my dander up."

"Staff? I thought it was leftover firewood!"

"Hey boss, did you hear this one? There was a farmer's daughter, 3 stone giants and a rod of many things..."

"A short guy from that guild downtown stopped by to borrow a cup of flour, but when I returned with the flour, he was gone... along with most of your spellbooks!"

"That damned Earth elemental just wouldn't take no for an answer, would he master."

"The witch across the street that likes you, she left a few messages on your crystal ball. I only read the first 12 or so..."

"If a little Bat Guano makes a normal fireball, what would happen if I use this REALLY Big ball."

"These spell components sure make a mean stew!"

"No, you go first... I went first last time."

"Please Master, allow me to light your smoking pipe with my Burning Hand spell." FOOOOMP! "I'm sure you eyebrows will grow again sir!"

"Listen, this scroll says 'To set up a permanent time-stop field for as far as the eye can see, just say the word Bidle-be-dee.' Hmm! Do you think it'll work? ... Master I'm talking to you... Master? ... Master? ..."

"Master, you are gonna laugh when you here this ... I wuz practicing Fireball in the library and guess what! ... It worked!"

"I'm so sorry Master, but I couldn't find any garlic, and I thought maybe broccoli would scare the vampire just as well!"

"ALAS, MASTER! I've finally done it! I've created Universal Solvent.... 'cept it seems to be 'eating' right through the earth and I don't know how to neutralize it."

"Imagine that! Ha, ha! Mistaking a potion of Irreversible Aging for salad dressing. Ha, ha! You know... white hair looks good on you, sir!”

"You did write a will, didn't you Master?"

"Hey Master, check to this neat scroll; “As you read this spell of Speech Impediment, you and all those around you will gladually begome unabelled to gomunigate in da unbestanbable wanblage tan bill bespeek uddel nonblends wabba dabba yabba ...."

"You wouldn't believe the deal I got on all those scraps of paper you kept up there in that old chest..."

"Ummm, I think the dog I bought didn't like your cat that much but don't worry, I told him not to do that to the next one you get..."

"Master, I swear the king has noooo sense of humor! When I told him all the jokes you've been telling about him, he didn't laugh at all!!"

"Sir, how come you didn't tell me the lock on your safe was broken? That little guy you hired couldn't get it opened, so he took it back to town to work on it."

"Listen, when you said you were expecting a familiar to show up, I thought you meant your cousin Sigmund from the West. How was I supposed to know you were expecting a chicken? ... I say let's forget about it and make the best of a bad situation ... do you want the leg or the breast ?"

"You, stupid peasants! Either you obey my master or he'll turn all of you into toads! YEAH! You think that just because you brought four paladins with you that he's scared?! NO WAY! And as soon as he gets out of the bathroom he'll teach all of you a lesson!"

"So you are out of live spiders, huh? How about selling me some cockroaches? My master is so old I don't think he'll be able to tell the difference."

"Hey master, let me show you this real neat trick ... Pick a card from this Deck ... any card!" “Ah… your card is… ah… THE VOID!” “See isn’t that a neat trick?”

(absolute silence, hour after hour, after hour…) "AAAAAAARRRRRRGGGGGG !!!! You damned apprentice !! I know you are up to something. I can hear your breathing!!!!!!! Where are you?? Say something!!!! You're driving me CRAAAAZY!!!!" Moral: Sometimes a silent apprentice is more terrifying than an apprentice who opens his mouth without thinking.

"Boy, that broom I animated sure got out of control, but don't worry, I took an axe and chopped it up into a million pieces."

"I was just in the library Master, and was wondering, do you have a Anti-fire system?"

"Hey, I just learned the magic missile spell Master. Pretty accurate isn’t it. I'll be back later... I'm just going down to the pub for a game of darts."

"Master, I was messing around with some charcoal, sulfur, and potassium nitrate in your lab, and I guess it got too close to the fire..."

"Master, I have an REALLY IMPORTANT safety tip for you..."

"So I mixed the glycerin, nitric acid, and sulfuric acid together in that pot that was hanging over the fire in your library..."

"Hypothetically, what would happen if Fluffy was at the bottom of a portable hole when the spell expired?"

"Remember how you wanted me to practice my Magic Missile spell? Well, I saw that black cat which keeps hanging around here..."

"You do have backup copies of your spellbooks, right?"

"Please tell me another. Plleeeeaaaasssee, oh please master. I just love your stories. Oh goodie thank you. Wow that apprentice sounds real funny and... what, that sounds like something I did now wait a minute I did the same thing. And you did what to the apprentice. If I was that apprentice I woul..." *Bright light floods the room.*

"I didn't mean to hit you with that web spell, Master. Here let me help you... darned web...I know! I'll BURN it off!"

"Hey Master! Look what I found under your bed - the Fabled Bloodstone Pendant! Finders - Keepers!"

"Uh Master, the Emperor is at the door with an army of guards... and it looks like he's holding that pair of boots you made for him..."

"The witch across the street stopped by again, Master. She says if you don’t take her to the Necromancers Ball she'll turn you into a DRESS and WEAR you there!"

"Well I wanted to find out if it's true that cats always land on their feet..."

"Well we had to do this ritual on the full moon. Then I felt all funny on a inside, and... well..."

"The potion boiling in the cauldron? I thought it was soup!"

"Want to play a game of cards? Here, I'll deal you five... hey look at all the funny pictures."

"Look Master! My own personal pit fiend!"

”Ahh, is the Erase spell normally a area effect spell?”
