Keys?

What's up with people and a love for keys? Everyone always fights over who gets to hold the keys and all it means is that you have to get slaughtered by monsters as you defenselessly run to the gate. Would you date a key?

I like to grab the keys on those multi-key levels (where there's three keys) to make sure that we get to open all the gates.

I like the way my butt wiggles when I walk with the key.

I like taking the keys and trying to hide them on the opposite end of the map. <3 As well as taunting a friend of mine who for some reason loves carrying the keys. We play keyp-away. :3

The Way of the Key Ninja: Opensesamejutsu!

Getting slaughtered by monsters as you run to the gate?
You obviously haven't seen a master key-ninja in action. More than once, I've seen these nimble acrobats dash through a room filled with monsters, nab the key they were guarding, and then disappear just as quickly, leaving nary a footprint behind.

All of this typically happens while the other knights are busy defending themselves against the monsters' aggression. By the time we've finished mopping up the crowns/jelly drops/skull fragments, someone invariably asks: "WTF, where's the %$#@ing key?"

To which the ninja replies in the distance: "Worry not for the fate of the key, for the way is now clear." Or more commonly: "Door's open."

They are truly a mysterious and noble breed.

Indeed key grabbers and the key ninjas are breeds that I hate. If I could perm-ban them, I could. I hate when they run, leaving me to die in their wake. And then go aggro the next bunch and bring them back, as if helping. I also hate when some idiot and their idiot friend are playing keep away rather than just opening the door so the rest of us can actually play the game. It isn't good game play, and it isn't team friendly. If you want to be an ass, please either stick to solo or locked parties with just your friends.

I prefer letting Dancinjen take the keys so I like the way her butt wiggles with the key.

We can do a run together as long as I can have all the keys.

Thanks for the tip culture I'll consider that for my costume armor next. :D

As long as you open all the gates on a level (and not just the last one that has treasure boxes but no key), I'd be happy to run with you dancinjen.

I like carrying keys. It makes me feel like I'm helping out the team as much as possible. :D
Also, it's kind of weird seeing people talk about Spiral Knights' butts wiggling. I predict that this will lead to someone posting artwork of some Knight girls in bikinis.

Knight girls in bikinis, clearly we need a calendar. Someone hop on that already.
