Friendship Dialogue

Tell me about Ironwood.

Ironwood Village may be small, but it's my home. We're safe inside these walls, but I'm worried that the Ward Stone won't hold forever. Weren't the monsters just after Rose? (+?.?? Aversion) This isn't Rose's fault! She's the victim here! Doesn't seem safe here to me. (+?.?? Aversion) No, I don't suppose it is. (Steve shakes his head sadly.) Ward who? (+?.?? Fondness) The Ward Stone. The ancients left it to us long ago. It creates a barrier that monsters can't enter. It's inside these barriers that we've created our cities and towns. Peace will return someday. (+2.00 Fondness) I pray to the Goddess that you're right.

What are you interested in these days?

What is there but leading my men against the monsters? I don't have time for anything else. Let me know if I can help. (+2.00 Fondness) Thank you, but please focus on finding Rose, {user_nick}. Leading from inside the city walls? (+?.?? Fondness) The militia would be lost without their beloved captain! It may look like cowardice to you, {user_nick}, but I've only got the town's best interests at heart. Surely there's something you do for fun! (+?.?? Aversion) It brings me joy. Not as long as there are monsters out there, preying on the innocent. You're so boring. (+?.?? Aversion) If by boring you mean a dutiful captain, then yes, I'm boring. (Steve looks upset.)

??.00 Fondness

Do you have a hobby?

Back in the day, I used to borrow books from Bernstein and read them. Can't say I have time to do that anymore. You're smarter than you look! (+1.00 Fondness) Haha, thanks! I guess I'm just curious about things is all. So that's why you stink at fighting. (+?.?? Aversion) I'm hurt, {user_nick}, after all the epic battles you've fought by my, er, side. Are you calling the captain of Ironwood's militia a coward? What are you doing in a small town like this? (+?.?? Aversion) I wanted to become a scholar when I was little, but things don't always turn out the way you want. Still, I think I've done pretty good for myself. I'm sorry you don't have time to read anymore. (+2.00 Fondness) There's nothing to be done about it, but thanks anyway.

??.00 Fondness

What kind of girls do you like?

Beautiful ones? I don't know, it's not something I think about. Why do you want to know, anyway? I could introduce you to a nice girl. (+?.?? Fondness) You know someone? I'm pretty busy, but sure, if you know a nice human girl, I'd like to meet her. You don't like any of the girls in Ironwood? (+?.?? Fondness) Well, there was one...but she's not here anymore. And anyway, my friend liked her before I did. No reason. (+?.?? Aversion) Don't be such a bore, {user_nick}. I doubt any beautiful girls would go out with you. (+?.?? Aversion) Don't you go telling me who would and wouldn't go out with me! But... Fine, maybe I'm not a big hit with the ladies. That's all right by me. The Militia keeps me busy.

??.00 Fondness

What are your plans for the future?

Saving Rose comes first. Then we can finally do something about the monsters. Maybe then I can retire and start studying again. That's a simple wish. (+?.?? Aversion) Sure it is. Even so, it won't be easy to make my wish come true. But if the monsters were gone, I'd be bored! (+?.?? Aversion) Bored? You'd be BORED? Did you forget what the monsters have done, {user_nick}? To Rose? And to Timothy? I doubt any of that will ever happen. (+?.?? Fondness) Maybe not, {user_nick}. But I've got to try, right? If I don't, what am I doing here? I hope your wish comes true. (+?.?? Fondness) It has to! And I hope that you get whatever you want in the future, {user_nick}. You deserve it after all you've done for us.
