Woo! Bonus height! There’s no way you’re getting those little inset panels at the bottom of a giant dramatic The Cheese reveal without cheating the height of your dailies.
And, heh, you can tell T Campbell specifically wrote Monkey Master’s line here because I always go with “dammit” instead of “damn it.” The big gorilla’s been hanging with extra-dimensional travelers for all of like an hour and he’s already picking up their parsing.
David was playing his cards close to the vest even with me about just who and what the Cheese was. so I had a limited toolset when it came to suggesting his dialogue. Still, I like the oddly microeconomic phrasing we gave him here, for a couple of reasons.One, it was language Meighan would recognize so that she’d be willing to engage him in conversation instead of just lapsing into stunned silence. Two, it plays to what I liked best about him: he seems bound by a rigorous code of conduct, but a code frighteningly unlike anything in our houses of worship or law books.RUNK.
Holey, like holey cheese?
I’d say that was an Emmentalry deduction …
I think that’s a gouda guess.
I always imagine The Cheese having a voice sort of like Robocop. “Dead or alive, you’re coming with me.”
Do the same thing with Ultra Magnus in MTMTE/Lost Light.
I always imagined him as a really cheesed off Johnny Five, personally.
What you did there, I see it.
Pshhhh, Johnny Five’s a tin can. Robots don’t have feelings. 😛
(Note: no offense meant to any robots. I just hadta make the reference.)
Honestly… I’ve always read the Cheese in the voice of Sovereign from Mass Effect.
I always imagined the Cheese with this voice:

I could see that. Any Protoss voice would probably work. Except Archons. Cheese is not that powerful.
I mostly got Sovereign because the first time I read a Cheese arc was not long after I finished ME1 (not for the first time, obviously, just in that time period).
He’s always sounded like Spongebob, to me… >_>
Cheesie’s splash page entrances are some of my favorite pages in IW.
“You’re trying to kidnap what I’ve rightfully stolen!”
