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 somewhere, 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 anything else sort of boring. You can provide context if you'd like, like "[ On the way back from Antiva: ]," but it isn't mandatory.

2. Post a few different remarks your character might make—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. Threadjacking to create multiperson conversations is encouraged (unless someone says not to). Multiple different conversations between the same 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.

What!

[ In mock-shock: ]

Who said that?

Bastien.

It does make the phrase take off your pants far more efficient.

The man's not to be trusted. You know, he keeps the most unsavory company. Like me, for example!

[ Hm. ]

Really?

Bastien doesn't lie to me.

Possibly. But they aren't half as fun to tug at, I'm sorry to report.

...and I do despise so many people.

What, all two of them?

You're shocked?

I would've thought the inherited wealth of wit would've given it away long before now.

I mean—it is very close. Especially chocolate tarts.

[ He weighs his hands in front of him. Byerly, chocolate, Byerly, chocolate... ]

But he's a little better.

The truth is - I grabbed the wrong end of a throwing-knife during training.

[ He wrinkles his nose. Embarrassing. ]

No, no. I think a shield would not be my style, anyway.

[ So he's putting it down, just a little wistfully. ]

I only like that you can decorate them. And I suppose if you have one on your back, no one can stab you there.
