|Value 12 - 21, 26 - 33, 35, 37 = September nods solemnly. "Such a shame, but has tae be done." He doesn't seem that sorry.
|Value 20, 230, 320 = "Aye! Aye and aye again." September is emphatic. Other boardmembers wince.
|Value 22 = September sighs. "Ach well. She's a bonny lass—" Is she? "Well, no. But 'tis your decision. And we do live in an imperfect world."
|Value 23 = "Shame," September says, "I'll miss 'im for sure. But the lad could stand to be a wee bit less green." He smiles suddenly. "Ah've taken th' liberty o' drawing him up a reading list for while he's away."
|Value 100, 105, 115 - 150, 170 = "Revolution is th' engine o' victory," September says. This appears to be assent.
|Value 160 = "Why's it so cold this close tae Hell?", wonders September. "Not that I mind, but migh' be a bit nippy for th' ''English.''"
|Value 181 - 187 = "Aye," says September, enthusiastically. "An' let's have a ruddy guid feast when it's built, an 'aw."
|Value 200 - 210 = "Can ne'er be too prepared. I'd recommend more cannon if it were me. Just fir th' look of 'th thing."
|Value 300 = September wrinkles his nose. "Bit Masterish if you ask me. Mebbe if it's not too ostentatious. A plaque?"
|Value 310 = September shrugs. "If we must make do with 'charity' so be it. So long as ye dinnae think it's a true salve for the conscience."
|Value 330 = "Well, we was always going to end up in one place," September says, resigned.
|Value 340 = "Tis the opiate of the people y'ken," September says admonishingly, "But 'tis your railway. If ye wanna stuff it full o' vicars that's your business."
|Value 400 = Sensing the mood of the Board, September relents. "I'm keeping a careful eye on you though," he says. "I'll be donatin' my share to the workers. After they've been to once o' my lectures first, o' course."
|Value 700, 720 = September looks very grudging indeed, but you've brought so much pressure to bear that he cannot refuse. "I will nae be stepping down from the Board, though, mind."
|Value 710 = "Aye!" September's approval is ringing, if not surprising.
|Value 905 = "She's a smart lass, I trust she can handle th' extra responsibility," September says. The Dean seems taken aback by the vote of confidence.
|Value 910 = "As a Scot I can confidently say no good comes from upsettin' churchmen," September says. The Bishop frowns.
|Value 932 = "Bit of a mad idea, that," September says. "I canne say no to it."
|Value 933 = "I s'pose the auld castle will look grand in the new lights," September muses.
|Value 940 = "Aye, I s'pose there's nae harm in it." September votes yes.
|Value 1000 - 1010, 1030 = "Aye, I s'pose," says September. "It's one in the eye to the Bazaar."
|Value 1100 - 1110 = "Do yeh really need tae ask my opinion on this one?" September asks, a wild gleam in his green eyes. His fingers twitch, eager for the fray.
|Value 1200 = "The more cities that bask in the moonlight, the better," says September. Which seems to be an aye vote.

|Value 23 = "Ye cannae do that," September says, "You'll break the puir lad's heart." He gives the Gondolier an encouraging smile from across the table. The Gondolier flushes.

|Value 933, 934 = "That sounds like a trick ye mean to play on the workers," September says. "Sounds downright Masterish, this."
|Value 1100 = "I dinnae think we should be antagonising th' various powers that be out there." September says, reflectively. "We might need 'em one day! If my colleagues have their way and all th' lights go oot, we'll need something to bright th' dark still."
