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.

Very well, you little pedant, I suppose I can stomach those two words. Ugh. It's things like this that make me lament that other individual looking out for you.
sulahnan: (heh)

[personal profile] sulahnan 2020-03-23 02:43 am (UTC)(link)
Well that other person must not know how insufferable I am.
bouchonne: (sardonic)

[personal profile] bouchonne 2020-03-23 02:44 am (UTC)(link)
I shall be sure to inform them.
sulahnan: (042)

[personal profile] sulahnan 2020-03-23 02:56 am (UTC)(link)
Then I really will have to be careful, I'll have one less person on my side.
bouchonne: (considering)

[personal profile] bouchonne 2020-03-23 02:58 am (UTC)(link)
Do you feel as though you have few people to help you?
sulahnan: (041)

[personal profile] sulahnan 2020-03-23 03:06 am (UTC)(link)
It's a hard feeling to shake, sometimes.
bouchonne: (what's under that skirt)

[personal profile] bouchonne 2020-03-24 12:52 am (UTC)(link)
Do you believe that there are few people to help you?
bouchonne: (prost!)

[personal profile] bouchonne 2020-03-24 02:24 am (UTC)(link)
Well, that's a start, I suppose.
sulahnan: (047)

[personal profile] sulahnan 2020-03-24 02:53 am (UTC)(link)
Mm.

[ Gotta start somewhere. ]

Have you drunk any of the wine I got you?
bouchonne: (droll)

[personal profile] bouchonne 2020-03-24 02:55 am (UTC)(link)
I have. It's nice.
sulahnan: (057)

[personal profile] sulahnan 2020-03-24 03:09 am (UTC)(link)
Oh good! Glad to hear it.

[ She wasn't gonna taste-test it for quality, after all. ]
bouchonne: (arch)

[personal profile] bouchonne 2020-03-25 02:31 am (UTC)(link)
Why do you ask?
sulahnan: (heh)

[personal profile] sulahnan 2020-03-25 03:06 am (UTC)(link)
Just making sure I didn't accidentally poison you with bad wine.
bouchonne: (ummm?????)

[personal profile] bouchonne 2020-03-25 03:09 am (UTC)(link)
Athessa, did you put poison in the wine you gave me? Are you trying to assassinate me?

[ Clearly not, but-- ]

No! My dastardly scheme! How did you know?!
bouchonne: (i hate my life)

[personal profile] bouchonne 2020-03-25 03:18 am (UTC)(link)
Don't ruin wine for me.
sulahnan: (yeah that's right)

[personal profile] sulahnan 2020-03-25 03:19 am (UTC)(link)
I wouldn't dream of it. I need people to palm my drinks off on at parties.
bouchonne: (ah melancholy fate)

[personal profile] bouchonne 2020-03-25 03:21 am (UTC)(link)
It's a hard job, but I'm equal to it.
