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 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.

Does it? [ She tips her head into the caress, turning a little to press a kiss against his wrist. ]

How terribly vague. Must I tease the truth of it out of you?

[bouchonne]

Oh, you must.

[bloodandsand]

If you insist. [ She tugs him closer and does not kiss him. Not yet. She leans in close and ghosts her lips along his jaw. ] Will you tell me, are you as sweet when you're naked as you are clothed?

[bouchonne]

Sweeter.

[bloodandsand]

[ She drops a kiss against his cheek. ]

Are you teasing or instructing me?

[bouchonne]

[ A laugh - ]

Informing you. That I'm better nude than clothed.

[bloodandsand]

Oh, lovely! I do enjoy being informed!

[ Which is more than enough reason to kiss him and try to slip her hands under his shirt at the same time. ]

[bouchonne]

Ah.

[ It's a surprise, to be certain. Not necessarily an unpleasant one. But - He has to pull back almost at once. ]

Poesia, my dear, this is not the sort of thing that is expected of you. If you are thinking of this as part of your duty.

[bloodandsand]

[ She blinks, surprised at being put off when things seemed to be progressing to a lovely conclusion. And then she laughs when what he tells her finally process. ]

Oh, I know that, dearest! To begin with, I don't belong to you, do I? Not really, I mean. Not properly. And anyway, if I was, I wouldn't bother flirting with you nearly as much.

[bouchonne]

Yes, but I am a division head. Surely you're a bit intimidated by me.

[bloodandsand]

[??????? ]

I can't imagine why I would be. Would you prefer if I was?
