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.

Oh. [ as explanation: ] We do not talk of Byerly often.

And I have not spoken to Byerly about his opinions on mages. [ Which is to say, she's not entirely familiar with them. ] But - I think you may be right.

[ A tiny bit sadly, or maybe just tiredly: ] Ouais.

[ But he brightens quickly. ]

If they ever come to an understanding, then we will go dancing.

[ This is what people do when they no longer wish to talk about something. What Bastien does. So she follows his lead. ]

We could not go now. I don't know how to dance.

[cozen]

No?

[ That's not nearly as rare a thing as he'd like it to be, among Riftwatchers. ]

Do you know if Matthias knows how?
