Round Table - The Catch Phrases

[glennagirl.livejournal.com]

We as fanfiction writers like to utilize certain fandom wide cliches and catch phrases.  I don't know where they all originated, but I'm pretty sure most of it isn't from the series itself.
Tovarisch, in all its myriad spellings, is one that we do know Napoleon used once or twice; Terbuf and one other I think.
Illya uses the phrase 'my friend' in the Brain Killer Affair.
Partner mine...  I have no idea, but we like it anyway.
Are there others, those little words and phrases, descriptions or something we accept but can't really identify as 'canon'?
Oh, there's the Pursang and Angelique's last name.  The latter came from Linda Cornett, and Pursang possibly from st_crispins.
Add to the list and if you can find the source then please fill in the blanks.

Excellent topic! It would be nice to know where many 'fanon' concepts originated. The Pursang definitely came from St. Crispins, as well as Napoleon being a scotch-drinker, whereas on the show he drank a variety of mixed drinks.

Actually I think the name of Pursang for Napoleon's boat originated in one of the ACE novels, but st_crispins did make use of it popular.

We'll have to ask Cindy as she seems awful partial to that name. I gave her a little Christmas ornament of a sailboat with the name on it after I'd posted one on the Section 7 Christmas tree.
