"You little rouge!" or something similar.

"Go and boil your head!" or something similar.

Mr. Jacques definitely liked some common phrases.

"so if you're ever in Mossflower, stop by. Our doors are always open to those with good heart" it's the same phrase, but different for every book

Yes, Brian Jacques had a lot of little phrases. It's called writing style.

Have you noticed he's really good at making up insults?

I love it when a couple of characters get into an insult battle!

Totally! I like how it's usually a hare involved in both...

That's why I don't want anyone else to take over writing the Redwall series: Mr. Jacques had a unique style that no one else has. And that's what makes Redwall what it is!

EDIT: That's also why I don't usually read fanfiction because it's not "real" Redwall.

That right there hits the nail on the head. Jaques' style is impossible to capture. I firmly believe that anyone who took over his series would not be nearly as successful as him. Although the books were the same formula, because of his writing, I could read them over and over again. He mastered the art of rhetoric for all ages.

I also love the point of insults that Icefire mentioned, because it really is great how well he was at creating insults between characters.
