I've been using " " in /say to denote dialogue.

Code: (Select All)
/say "Miss Grimsong, pray tell me you will be alright."

Code: (Select All)
Kage Kiryuu: "Miss Grimsong, pray tell me you will be alright."

When I use a mix, it depends on whether or not I go to straight dialogue or use /em to decide.

Code: (Select All)
/say "What would you have me do?" the Lalafell asked, his movements jerking harshly. The feather of his white beret moved sharply.

Code: (Select All)
Kage Kiryuu: "What would you have me do?" the Lalafell asked, his movements jerking harshly. The feather of his white beret moved sharply.

When I want to use action and dialogue mixed in...

Code: (Select All)
/em threw himself to the ground, rolling to break his fall. As soon as he was on his feet he spun around, smashing his axe down at his pursuer's feet before crying to his companion, "Run! Run and I'll keep 'im here!"

Edit: In regards to my character quoting something, I typically use the " ' ' " format that I've seen used in literary works I used to read.
Code: (Select All)
/say "Who is this so-called 'Little Wolf' that you speak of?"
