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 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.

And they aren't exactly looking to open their hearts and coinpurses and vaults to the poor and the needy.

Tout à fait.

Do you suppose the Maker still considers them our brothers and sisters? [ The Chant says those who steal from their brothers and sisters, after all, and their employers or landlords. ] If I threw my arm around a duke and called him my brother, I think I would be killed.

I think the Maker still considers everyone His children, so I guess it makes all of us really bratty siblings. And there isn't a get-along shirt big enough for us all. The rich think they're only children and the rest of us are strangers, seems like.
