Things said at my table that let me know I am doing a good job
I am currently running God's Teeth for my group. We are very fresh into it and last session was The Long Years and the beginning of Red Thoughts.
***Read no further if you want zero spoiler risk for the beginning of the campaign. ***
While we are discussing the events of The Long Years
Player 1 (playing an Army Medic): "I want to add a new Bond during the downtime."
Me: "Sure. Who are they?"
Player 1: "I'm going to add another kid. A daughter."
Player 2" "How the hell do you go through something like Cornucopia House and decide to bring ANOTHER child into the world?"
While disposing of evidence.
Me: "Are you all getting rid of all of your guns or just some of your guns?"
Player 1: "Well I mean we didn't even shoot some of these so no reason to get rid of ALL of them, right?"
In the immediate aftermath of Cornucopia House.
>!Player 1: "I say we burn it."!<
>!Me: "It?"!<
>!Player 2: "I agree. All of it."!<
>!Player 3: "What about the kids?"!<
>!Player 4: "Take them outside and leave them by the damn tree."!<
>!Player 5: "What about the other body? The small one."!<
>!Player 4: "Leave it wrapped up with them. It'll be more then enough evidence something truly fucked happened here."!<
>!Me: "Sounds great. So, backlit by multiple burning buildings you leave Cornucopia House with two vehicles full of evidence that needs to be disposed of elsewhere. The children and their pets ringed around a tree like the Whos from Whoville as the last of their friends to ever be a victim of the House's horrors lays nearby in the snow. Good job."!<
