allthisshitisweird | Party Banter Meme

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 that might make people want to have a dumb conversation just to break things up a bit.

OPTIONAL ASSISTANT: Since so many people reported being out of it, we made a random generator to help you come up with some general banter prompts for your top-levels.

2. Post a few remarks your character might say (similar to TFLN, except spoken out loud and less ridiculous and sexy, maybe. maybe not. we 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. Banter threads can't be used for Base AC, but do count towards AC Rewards points.

[ By blinks innocently in return. ]

I agree. [ But since they can both agree it's not universally a good thing, he can at least ease up on it maybe being a good thing for her. ] Is there a gaggle of Kints out there somewhere who you belong to?

Your question disproves itself.

[ That's a question that catches him a bit by surprise. He blinks - ]

Hm?

[ Then recovers. ]

Which time?

Does it?

Mm. By implying your own lack of faith in my awareness.

--which seem to have by and large been strangely self-perpetuated, yes.

Not that I am criticizing, of course. I am merely observing.

Limits. I do not want to believe it of you, but I also do not want to doubt you. What a quandary.

[ Aha but there's a return to the argument topic! ]

Yeah, that's kind of my point, though, is that even for people who are naturally gifted or whatever, if you ask them, they worked hard. And for people who aren't, they also worked hard, it doesn't mean that the talented person didn't. Or, you know, that an untalented person might as well not work so hard because they'll never be as good as the other guy.

[ Oh, but he complimented her-- ]

But thank you.
