Synopsis

Kirk James has used every line in this book. Some of them worked. Most of them worked better than they had any right to. At least one of them started something that three legal teams across two star systems still cannot fully explain. He regrets nothing.

Lines That Work is the definitive romantic field guide from the smoothest pilot in the known galaxy - a velvet-suited, blue-haired charmer who spent years traversing the Drift, encountering new species, and rolling dice in the name of love. Each pickup line comes rated by Kirk himself, with a recommended charisma modifier, detailed delivery instructions, and the kind of earnest strategic analysis that can only come from a man who genuinely believes that confidence, commitment, and a decent dice roll can conquer the universe.

He is not wrong. Mostly.

Featuring commentary from the full crew of the Free Range Vag Box 69 - including a five-star endorsement from a Captain who has monetized the results, a spiritual warning from an android priestess who has read the dangerous pages multiple times for research purposes, a soldier who tried one of the lines once and will not be discussing the outcome, and a crewman who supports Kirk completely and remembers everything very well - Lines That Work is equal parts romance manual, comedic memoir, and love letter to the chaos of found family.

Whether you're navigating the social complexities of The Hub, charming your way through an alien encounter, or simply trying your luck at the cantina on a Tuesday, this guide has a line for the moment, a modifier for the math, and a Kirk James pep talk for the soul.

Roll a 16. Deploy the stare. Trust the process.

A humor title from Misfit Pages. Originally developed during the Starfinder tabletop campaign "Free Range Pumpkins in Space."

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Amy N. Kaplan is an award-winning author of children's books, interactive fiction, tabletop RPG supplements, memoirs, poetry, romance, and fantasy. Born in Chicago, she has lived across the United States and in Australia, collecting stories along the way.She is the publisher behind Misfit Pages, an independent press based in Texas - though the driving force behind it is her eldest spawn. You may recognize them as the player behind Tana. Amy lives with her eldest spawn, two cats, and the conviction that this was all a reasonable idea. Her other four adult children (and a cast of grandchildren who are already causing problems in the best possible way) are scattered across New Mexico, Kentucky, and Tennessee, doing their own things and occasionally being informed about new book projects after the fact.She is also, for the record, the voice of Kirk James.Amy played Kirk during the original Free Range Pumpkins in Space Starfinder campaign - the velvet suit, the blue hair, the d100 table, all of it. Some episodes of the podcast are still out there if you'd like to hear the lines delivered by their original practitioner, in character, in real time, against all reasonable expectations of success.She rolled well.When she isn't writing or rolling dice, Amy can be found playing tabletop games, antiquing, or arguing passionately about Monty Python and Star Wars with people who did not ask for her opinion.Free Range Pumpkins in Space was a real campaign, played by real people, who have been informed that this book exists. Most of them think it's funny. The others will come around.
