Trivia

  • This weapon's name translates into english as "Dear Friend".
  • Red text translation: "I am delighted, Where is the library?" This is likely a reference to "Foux Da Fa Fa" by Flight of the Conchords. [1] It is (intentionally) grammatically incorrect French. Grammatically correct French would be "Je suis enchanté. Où est la bibliothèque?". The French version of the weapon is grammatically correct.[1]
  • In Russian version weapon's name translated as "French Friend" and red text changed on transliterated phrase in broken French, that reference to a quote from novel "The Twelve Chairs".
