The relationship between Quote and Curly

I thought he meant before going through the labyrinth, although I didn't think that was possible either.

 

I suppose. It doesn't seem likely though. (And what's MG?)

MiraiGamer.

Nah. Machine Gun I think.

And what's SPG?
Self-propelled Gun?

sp gardibiter?

 

What do you mean DB? How is it possible to get back to the first cave from the waerways?

Through Mimiga Village.

Waterways > Mimiga Village > First Cave

Yes. MG means "Machine Gun".

Yes. MG means "Machine Gun".

No, if you return that way, he'll say he's searching for the Polar Star. There isn't a sign to say he's out.


SPG means ShInInG PhAnToM Gardebiter.

 

It's obvious that Quote and Curly were made by different designers. Why?

The puns for names.
{ Curly Brace -> Brace is last name.
" Quote Marx -> Different last name required for symmetry.

 

That's what most of us assumed, but the punctuation thing can just be a co-incidence.

 

" Quote Marx -> Different last name required for symmetry.

Where'd the Marx part come from? :/

I read that first in a fanfic, but its origin is obvious.

Quote = Quotation = Quotation Marks = "" = Quote Marks = Quote Marx

Yes. Pixel didn't give Quote a last name, but he was originally called "Curly Brace" in the BETA version of cave story (hence the hat) but was later renamed to Quote, guess who got his old name.

 

Also, Curly's mimiga children are called Korons (Colons, get it?)

 

To reitterate - MG = Machine Gun.
Where did SPG come from?
Aaaaand...
If you get the MG, before you get telafragged to the Laby, you can go to the Village and fly up to visit the First Cave.

yeah but im pretty sure the hermit gunsmith isnt there when that happens, it just has a away sign or something? right?

 

I believe he said that?

Yes, here it is:

If you can get back the the Gunsmith before you go through the Waterway (required teh MG), he's gone and there is a sign saying "Out".

 

I believe he said that?

You can be my secretary office monkey.
=^-^=

 

I believe he said that?

Yes, here it is:

sorry sometimes i post on my phone, and when im on my phone i dont check like 3 threads back :S

 

Okay office monkey.

 

Personally, my impression was more of a 'brothers in arms,' or 'inseperable-friends' thing; Curly is willing to sacrifice herself for Quote because they've already been through near-death situations, and he's demonstrated himself to be, overall, better suited to defeating Misery/Doctor and saving the Mimigas.
But then, I just object to romantic interpretations of main characters' relationships with their fellows whenever ambiguity allows me to, unless it's something unconventional. >.> <.<

On another note, I'd always thought of the Polar Star as a fairly basic weapon model, maybe even standard among surface-army light personnel guns, so the one you get from the Hermit Gunsmith has no particular significance of its own. Curly's Machine Gun, similarily, was something she just found and made use of, although I suppose that the idea that she had it when fighting the Doctor and just managed not to lose it is reasonable, also.

 

And, didn't the Hermit Gunsmith say that he found the polar star, and was trying to make it better? (I might be imagining things... again)
