As far as we know we don’t have any fictives, but we sometimes like to share quotes from media with each other. There are definitely some we use more than others. It’s also common for the quotes to be used in a metaphorical way. When quotes come from TV the quote is usually played as a clip with both visual and audio. It’s fun, but it also makes it harder to tell who played the clip. I thought it was mostly all different headmates using clips for communication, but after taking some time to write out a bunch of common to semi-common examples I realize it’s mostly the humorous one. I also realized we share a lot of Seahawk clips. 

Communication examples

“No sappy lines allowed!” “Huh?!” Aika and Akari, Aria the Animation

“Turns out birds here don’t want your autograph, they just don’t like littering, which is reasonable!” One-One, Infinity Train Documentaries

“Don’t set it on fire.” “No promises!” Mermista and Seahawk, She-Ra and the Princesses of Power

“I’m exhausted.” “Oh really!? You're exhausted!?” Haru and Kyo, Fruits Basket

Funny examples

“Remember, you can’t spell escape without companionship! Companion-shape? Companion-escape? Conscapionship? Conscapation?” One-One, Infinity Train 

“This was a terrible plan. Why didn’t you stop me?” “Because you didn’t tell us! Why didn’t you tell us!?” “If I told you, you would have stopped me.” Seahawk and Swiftwind, She-Ra and the Princess of Power

“You lost that crown?” “I would prefer not to lie to you.” Hilda and Woodman, Hilda

“The teacher didn’t like my hair, or my attitude, so I guess I have no choice but to get a peircing.” Haru, Fruits Basket

Examples of funny communication, at least according to the humorous one

“‘We’ll see,’ promised Sir Topham Hatt.” Sir Topham Hatt, Thomas and Friends

*shrugs and makes razzbeary noise* Fin, Adventure Time

“I hate it when people [unintelligible mumbling]” The lighthouse keeper, 90s Moomins 

“Lose washer! Run for your lives!” Clickclack, Dinotrux

Just there, I guess, IDK

“Not just the toilets Kwazi.” Captain Barnacles, Octonauts

“Sneaking around the corner. AAAGHGHGHGH!!” Vitruvius, The Lego Movie

“That is so smart! And bad. We’re all gonna die.” Entrapta, She-Ra and the Princess of Power

“Not destiny, Amelia, mathematics. My algorithms are built to account for the fact that anything can happen on the train. There are exceptions, of course, but given enough time, yes. Anything.” One, Infinity Train

Sidenote, I consider Haru and One-One plural.
