|Value 20 = "My objections to the Tentacled Entrepreneur are well-known already," she says. In the course of her mayoral campaign, the topic was covered in all the papers, and their relationship has not greatly improved since.
|Value 23 = "He is very likely a ''dog'' person," says the Viscountess.
|Value 33 = "Those devils that remain in Parabola are not usually on good terms with the Fingerkings," says the Viscountess. "But they are not ''necessarily'' on our side either. […]"
|Value 100 = The Viscountess picks up the corner of the plans in her teeth and shakes them neatly until they unroll. Then she paces back and forth over the plans, leaving paw smudges in the pencil. But her review is thorough, and her conclusions […] positive.
|Value 160 = The Viscountess examines the station plans by padding softly over them, slightly smudging the ink. After she's taken several laps, she distractedly lays down upon it. You have to prod her for an opinion. "Seems acceptable," she says.
|Value 181 = The Viscountess gives her assent with a lazy wave of her tail. "I am unconcerned about this little experiment on the part of the Tracklayers."
|Value 340 = "I am glad to see such a sensible proposal put forward," she says, licking a paw. "And I would be willing to give it the nod."
|Value 520, 521, 523, 525 - 528 = "I have a better method," she says, lifting her chin. "But I will accept this alternative if it is the will of the Board." The tone make this sound like the greatest imaginable concession.
|Value 800 = "He appears to be the closest thing to a deputy or second in command," observes the Viscountess. "One should observe the allegiances of the organisation, even if its methods are questionable."
|Value 850 = "It seems he was once Furnace's heir," says the Viscountess. "And was meant to be so again. It would be an appropriate chain of succession."
|Value 905, 910 = The Viscountess yawns. She has limited interest in matters ecclesiastic.
|Value 932 = The Viscountess pads over Cornelius' diagrams of the Beast. "What a fascinating thought." She seems very interested in potential military applications.
|Value 1000, 1020, 1030 = "A wise alliance," says the Viscountess of the Viric Jungle. She paces the length of the boardroom table, a manoeuvre she prefers when she wishes to particularly impress. "The Tower is taking proper care of its dependents. An honourable cause."
|Value 1200 = The Viscountess walks around the proposed map several times and then goes to sleep on a corner of a page. That seems like a yes, then.

|Value 35 = "She is highly regarded among cats," says the Viscountess stiffly. She is frequently to be found sitting on the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner's lap during meetings, but as this is undignified, no one is ever allowed to allude to the fact.
|Value 100 = The Viscountess' response to this plan is a furball, coughed up at the moment of maximum rhetorical effect.
|Value 160 = Something about the station plans doesn't agree with the Viscountess; her hackles are raised.
|Value 181 = The Viscountess rolls her eyes. "And I suppose we are to give them a lifetime supply of Surface mackerel and ceaseless belly-rubs, too?"
|Value 340 = She doesn't so much speak her response as hiss. All the fur on her body is standing up.
|Value 520, 521, 523, 525, 527, 528 = The arched back and the hissing express her views even before she puts an argument. It seems that she has deep objections to this approach and that she feels her own insight ought to be heeded. "Before it is too late," she adds.
|Value 800, 850 = "He is not known to us," she says, licking her paw. Has she not had enough time to observe his dreams?
|Value 905, 910 = "Let's not lose focus," the Viscountess says. "I'm sure there'll be plenty of time for – churches, was it? – some other time."
|Value 1000, 1020, 1030 = "It may be a viable ally, […] But London has other concerns. Have we forgotten the danger posed by Parabola?"

There's some muttering from other board members […]

"I thought it was my broad perspective on London's affairs that you sought […]
