PARTY BANTER MEME

[faderifting]

In the Dragon Age games, as you travel Thedas with your best pals, they have a lot of short conversations about politics, the weather, butts, etc. So this is the Fade Rift equivalent, in four easy steps!

1. Imagine your characters are on a very long walk toward a mission objective, or on a very long walk back after kicking ass, or standing guard together, or gathering herbs, or working in the library late at night, or something. Anything sort of boring.

2. Post a few remarks your character might say—similar to TFLN, except spoken out loud and less ridiculous, maybe, or maybe not, I don’t know your life—while passing the time.

3. Tag around to reply to those general remarks or to start new/wildcard conversations! Threads should be pretty short and involve minimal action; there’s no need to turn anything into a big production. Multiperson threads are encouraged. Series of conversations between the same two characters occurring on different days are also encouraged.

4. Gather up all of your little conversation snippets like a bouquet and keep them forever, because they’re game canon.

A cat has just claws. This is different.

[justashotaway]

Why?

[imbroccata]

A cat's claws are the tips of their fingers. [ Clearly. ]

[justashotaway]

So?

[imbroccata]

So those aren't fingertips. They're different. Literally.

Which one?

As far as I know, that he wants to be king is the most important fact about him.

A whole family. It is a surname.

This? Why my dear, it's a bomb.

[justashotaway]

What does it do.

[There's an edge to her voice.]

[unshut]

It explodes. At which point all the little bits and pieces that are inside go flying out in all sorts of different directions.

[justashotaway]

No. [She knows what a bomb is.] What does it make people do?

[unshut]

Bleed, mostly.

[Ha ha, we have fun here.]

I honestly haven't the slightest idea. I'm but a humble assembly woman.

I said so.

It is only a hat.

[justashotaway]

It is unnecessary.
