"Can you give me a hand?"
"If you don't get your bony ass up here with your shield, I'm going to take this arm and jam through your pelvis bone."
Just a scene that makes me smile and wanting to get to the book.

The most attention-grabbing feature was what the new owners had mounted over the door; a fake bowsprit, the spar which normally fastened the ropes to stabilize a ship's mast. The entire tableau gave the impression of an owner who wanted visitors to imagine that the building was actually a spectacularly ill-proportioned and temporarily dry-docked ship. The bowsprit itself supported a painted, wooden figurehead; a rather skillful and imaginative representation of an alluring mermaid. While not out of place in a port city, the siren drew their attention thanks to the artist's attention to detail. She held a shattered beer mug in her left hand, a stiletto in her outstretched right hand, and had unmistakable red hair flowing from her head like a blazing fire. [Note: A rough description of the MC, featuring weapons from a bar fight in book 1]

"Oh for fuck's sake..." Eya muttered into her palm. Her profanity gambit fell flat; none of them noticed.

"Huh. Well, that's..." Kael offered, lost for words.

"Perky." Liriel generously came to his aid.

"And remarkably life-like!" Theron boisterously finished for them. Eya gasped.

"Muffin! It is not life-like."

"I think it's very...flattering?" Elara diplomatically added. Liriel spoke up again, clearly enjoying this far too much.

"I want to change my answer to 'tumescent'." She waved off Elara's shocked expression. "What? I read."

This is all I’m teasing for my zombie spy story for now:

“Because nothing says reputable law enforcement sub-branch like a gothic house that hadn’t seen a repair dude since the civil war” or this “Doesn’t matter dead or alive. Even the dead like me have phones these days.”

for context the first one is because the place the MC is at, she’s commentating on a creepy place she works in, and the latter joke is a joke about how phones are everywhere these days.

“I saw you in your study. You had that big, dopey smile plastered across your face. Like a schoolboy with his first love letter. Should I be concerned, dear brother? A secret rendezvous? A scandalous affair?”

“It is none of your concern.”

“Oh, so it is a secret! Does she have a name? Or is it all ‘My Dearest Lady’ and ‘Yours Eternally?’”

“Annie, I swear to God—”

“Oh! Or perhaps… it’s a ‘My Dearest Lord?’”

“...I am going to strangle you with my bare hands.”

“And these hyenas can’t even resist the temptation.”

“Hyena?” Lilith asked, tilting her head.

“Sleazy opportunistic carnivores from Earth,” Solo replied.

Lilith thought for a moment, then nodded.

“Oh. A house pet, then.”

"Joke" won't show up for a while but:

"Stay your hand or I will not stay mine," a voice from behind Bates intoned. The voice was deep, low, emotionless and flat.
Bates turned and saw ... something in the shadows, a figure that seemed to be made of darker shadow. Or at least garbed in it. It pointed at him with a fleshless hand.
"I know your mission is to end him, but it is not his time."
Bates finally found his voice. "Who are you to interfere with my master's bidding?"
The shadow-thing replied with a sound that might have been a laugh. "I am called Khohl, the Harvester. It is my fate to know the time for all things to be ... taken."
"You ... you're ... the Grim Reaper?"
"I have no flesh. Makes it hard to not be grim."

It's not actually in the story yet, but I realized it sounded too much like an Isekai title to not post it:

"My wife is a thirteen-billion-year-old sun with a congenital chill deficiency and an incurable case of the zoomies."

"Our Alliance name should be Pentagram Economic Naval & Industrial Security" Monny roared, "THAT'S IT!!"

"Did you even check what the acronym would be?!" Belphy roared back.
