"Eh, a couple hours? One of them will probably fall onto us. I'd tell you to watch out, but you can't move more than your eyelids in there, can you?" Serpico's mocking is incessant, you told him to stop goofing around, and he took that as a challenge.
"By the way, can't you absorb energy or whatever? Why don't you just take it from the life around you and get out of there?"
"It's not remotely controlled. I need to touch a living creature, and even then, they have to consent to it."
"My hands might be stuck to my torso in this crevice, but I'd like you to know that I wouldn't give you my energy if you asked me to."
"What, because I want to stay away from your master?"
"No Vlad, you threw me off a damn cliff!"
"Look, you're right. I think we might have started on the wrong foot here. It's been a while since we've met, I should have thought of a better opening line. Something more casual, like 'What's your favorite shade of blue?'"
"...Teal."
"What?"
"My favorite shade of blue. It's teal." He didn't have to respond to it, but alright...
"I'm more of an Indigo guy myself... but teal is alright. It's a bit closer to green, though."
"I thought you'd like a stronger color, something like red or black."
"I've seen nothing but red and black for 3 years, I've had enough of it."
"That's fair, I'm not too keen of the color red, either. Fire, blood, anger, it's all a trigger to bad memories..."
"I thought you were pretty comfortable around fire."
"I'm Farnese's knight, not her doppleganger."
Farnese tries to look down to see where you and Serpico fell off, but she drops her scabbard down the gap and it hits you right on your forehead. This is not your day...
"Ah, I hope you like your last few seconds of anonimity. She's going to flip once she finds out you're the one who helped Guts escape."
"Anyone ever said you have the personality of stale bread?"
"You owe me a new sword."
