I was in a plane that went underwater. The pilots and hostess were dolphins and they tried explaining safety rules to us but only made dolphin sounds. Plane “crashed” overwater.

One thing I love about the Underdark is the intermittent weird whale-like noises that just echo every now and then. Shit's out there. You better watch out. You better watch out. You better watch--

You know, it's not fair to be in the cyberpunk capitalist dystopian future without all the fun gadgets that made those stories memorable and fantastical and even, potentially, livable.
It's just not fair.

Markgraf Attentäter C - "The Winged Fusilier"
Role: Gun Carrier
Served With: Kingdom of Sopwith
First Flight: 1593
Strengths: All The Guns
Weaknesses: Too Many Guns
Inspiration: Sopwith Dolphin (1917)
Description:
The Königliche Sopwith Fliegerkorps developed a divergent combat philosophy from their mainland counterparts, believing that dogfighting and the “ace pilot” mentality was useless continental grandstanding that had no place in modern war.
Instead, the KSF used a tactic they referred to as the airborne gunline, and the Attentäter was designed for it from the ground up. Though neither as agile as most mainline fighters with its V8 engine, or as tough with its long, fragile wings, the Attentäter didn’t need either. Fast in a straight line and controllable, it was designed to joust with enemy aircraft, and was exceedingly good at it.
The plane can carry as many as six machine guns depending on its intended role. Its primary disadvantage is its violent stall characteristics, but KSF pilots were never expected to do much turning anyway.

Redline-esque movie about going very very fucking fast but instead of a wacky intergalactic raceway it's set in a psuedo-medieval fantasy setting so instead of cars and engines the main character is gathering up all the potions and spells they can in order to supercharge their fucking horse
