@1    = ~Could you *avoid* joking about such a thing...? It's just that... well, it's horrible hearing you tell me that, even when I know you're just trying to upset me...~
@2    = ~But Imoen, that's the whole point! (Wink at her) I just love to annoy you...~
@3    = ~Oh... alright, Imoen, forgive my thoughtless words...~
@4    = ~OH, so *you* can mock me in whatever horrible way you imagine but *I* can't do the same!?~
@5    = ~Umm, Imoen, I wasn't joking at all. I think... I think it's for the best.~
@6    = ~Agh, are you *so* stupid that you can't see I'm serious?! It is over between us, finished, done with!!~
@7    = ~(It seems you weren't clear enough: grab her by the neck and punch her face with all of your strength to *make* her understand.)~
@8    = ~(To your surprise, Imoen doesn't smile the slightest bit) <CHARNAME>... you should learn to tell the difference between 'annoying me' and 'scaring me to the core'...~
@9    = ~<CHARNAME>... you should learn to tell the difference between 'mocking me' and 'scaring me to the core'...~
@10   = ~(Imoen gasps) Wh-- what?~
@11   = ~Oh, c'mon Imoen, I'm just joking! I can't believe you thought I was serious, heheh...~
@12   = ~We shouldn't be together like this. It has gone too far... we have gone too far, we must resume our friendship and forget about our... 'other'... relationship. Believe me, it's the best thing for everyone concerned.~
@13   = ~(It seems she didn't understand you well enough: grab her neck and slap her face roughly until she understands.)~
@14   = ~(Imoen is speechless for a while. Her skin has gone pale; she breathes heavily as she looks at you with fear in her eyes.)~ [MRImRom3]
@15   = ~B-- but, but why!? I thought... I thought that we...~
@16   = ~Please, please Imoen, don't overreact... I still care for you, I still love you, as my sister... please, I want us to be friends, like we have always been...~
@17   = ~Well you thought wrong. Forget about it, we aren't involved anymore.~
@18   = ~(She doesn't seem to understand what you mean at all: grab her and throw her to the ground, where you will be able to kick her until she realizes what you are trying to say.)~
@19   = ~But what about *me*!? What about my feelings!? You can't just... just decide to end this and... (Tears are already welling up in Imoen's eyes) I... I don't deserve this... I don't...~
@20   = ~I just wanted to... to be happy...~
@21   = ~Why can't I...? Don't I deserve some happiness too...? I've done nothing wrong... I don't deserve this...~
@22   = ~I can't stand doing this to you; I swear... you will be truly happy by someone's side some day, Imoen. But it shouldn't be by my side, it can't be... you understand this, deep inside you understand, don't you...?~
@23   = ~I guess it's because you are too weak. Accept it and stop your whining: we will never be together again.~
@24   = ~I know what you deserve, you filthy harlot!! (You grab her roughly and beat into her head what she really deserves.)~
@25   = ~(She was already hurt by your words, but this has managed to upset her to the point where she cannot control her anger.)~
@26   = ~You... you *bastard*!! Why did you lie to me like that!? Why did you make me feel such things!? I can't believe I let you fool me like that!!~
@27   = ~I hate you, get away from me!~
@28   = ~(Imoen turns around and leaves your side, and you know she will never let you look into her eyes again.)~
@29   = ~No, I don't understand it at all... and I think it's *you* who doesn't understand. You don't really know how you've made me feel, do you? You don't know how happy I've been in your arms... you don't-- don't know of the tears that fill my eyes... when I awake in the middle of the night and... and I feel you beside me... close to me...~
@30   = ~Such feelings can't be bad, <CHARNAME>... they *can't*...!~
@31   = ~Oh, Imoen... (Embrace her tenderly) will you forgive me...? I was so confused... but... but you are right, as always... I can't lie to myself, I *need* you, Imoen...~
@32   = ~I'm sorry Imoen... they are, when it comes to... "beings" like us... it hurts me as much as it hurts you, but it's the only way possible.~
@33   = ~Haven't you heard me, girl!? IT-IS-OVER!!~
@34   = ~(All right, that was too much. Leap at her with a grunt and cut her throat so she will understand in the last seconds of her life that you don't like repeating yourself.)~
@35   = ~(A grimace of pain crosses her face. She finally understands there is nothing she can say to change your mind about this.)~
@36   = ~You... have made your choice. And you have forced me to make mine...~
@37   = ~I'm leaving. I can't bear to be close to you anymore, <CHARNAME>... not after all we have shared. It would have been less painful had you been blunt with me about this...~
@38   = ~It hurts so much... (Imoen's face reflects all of her thoughts... and you can tell they are harrowingly painful) It's too much for me, I must leave your side, I can't stand it...!~
@39   = ~Farewell, my... <PRO_BROTHERSISTER>... I am sure that... we will meet again...~
@40   = ~(Imoen cries onto your chest... but this time the tears are born of relief and happiness; she laughs and cries at the same time) Of course, of course my love, of course... (She keeps saying this as she kisses your skin longingly.)~
@41   = ~I've had doubts myself from time to time but... I just thought of how you make me feel and... And they simply vanished...~
@42   = ~Don't do this to me again, please, please... promise me you won't make me go through this horrible torture again, alright...?~
@43   = ~(With a deep sigh, she tightens her embrace and then releases you, smiling through her tears.)~
@44   = ~... please... don't tell me something like that again, alright...? Never again...~
@45   = ~Please Imoen, don't be upset... I love you and always will, I swear...~

@47   = ~Meh...~
@48   = ~Good (She winks at you and smiles.)~

@50   = ~(Imoen frowns at that) <CHARNAME>, just what got into you!?~
@51   = ~A hundred hectares worth of disgust for *you*!!~
@52   = ~SEE? I *HATE* YOU, stop talking so much!!~
@53   = ~What the...!? Tell you what, *bugger off*, <CHARNAME>, I'm out of patience for your stupidities. I won't try to keep a friendship *neither* of us enjoy!!~
@54   = ~Hmpf...!~
@55   = ~<CHARNAME>, didn't I tell you *not* to joke about that? And didn't you promise you wouldn't do it again!?~
@56   = ~Uh... sorry, I forgot about that, heh...~
@57   = ~This time I'm serious... I think we should split up, Imoen.~
@58   = ~(It seems Imoen refuses to obey your will at once: grab her neck and punch her face with all of your strength so that she will understand.)~
@59   = ~Hmpf... don't do it again...~
@60   = ~(Although she had her mind on very different thoughts, some kind of sixth sense tells her to move away from you; but she is not fast enough. You manage to grab a handful of her hair and a grimace of intense pain twists her face.)~
@61   = ~Ough!! <CHARNAME>, why-~
@62   = ~(Release her at once) Why...? Why... why am I... what am I doing...?~
@63   = ~Hmpf... it's not worth my time. Leave, I won't kill you... *today*.~
@64   = ~I'll show you why, bitch!! (Make her fall to the ground, or tear her hair apart from her head in the attempt.)~
@65   = ~(Say nothing, just beat her face to a bloody pulp.)~
@66   = ~(Imoen isn't stupid enough to wait for you to kill her. Finally understanding you have lost your senses, she hurls herself against you instead of fighting your grasp and manages to put you off balance just long enough to break free of your grip.)~
@67   = ~(She then jumps and rolls, standing up again behind you a few steps away, far enough for her to foresee any other attack.)~
@68   = ~ARE you CRAZY!? You were going to kill me!!~
@69   = ~Imoen, I-~
@70   = ~Come here you-~
@71   = ~RRraargh!~
@72   = ~Oh my, oh my, you're out of control, I'm outta here! I won't die by your hands, I won't!~
@73   = ~NO, shut up! You're out of control, I'm outta here! I won't die by your hands, I won't!~
@74   = ~Aaaeie! (Feeling the pain, Imoen *throws herself* to the ground, so quickly that she manages to roll out of the reach of your killing instincts.)~
@75   = ~But now I'm not-~
@76   = ~I've changed my mind, come here you-~
@77   = ~RRraargh!!!~
@78   = ~Imoen, I'm sorry... I don't know what happened to me... I fear I'm succumbing to Bhaal's essence, please help me...!~
@79   = ~"WERE"? COME HERE YOU-~
@80   = ~RRraargh!!! KILL, KILL!!!~
@81   = ~Yeah right, I'm not falling for that trick! *YOU* were willing to kill me, *not* Bhaal!!~
@82   = ~Keep your distance, <PRO_BROTHERSISTER>... I hope this won't happen again.~
@83   = ~Heh, so yer officially a Paladin now... yer proud of yourself, arentcha?~
@84   = ~D'oh, my fault, stupid question... all paladins feel proud of themselves!~
@85   = ~(Imoen whispers to herself, but you manage to hear what she says) no matter what they really do...~
@86   = ~Yes, I am really proud. I have worked hard to get to this point.~
@87   = ~Under the wisdom of the Order, I shall smite evil and chaos all over the realms!~
@88   = ~Imoen, did you say something...?~
@89   = ~What do you mean by that? Are you implying that we don't earn our prestige!?~
@90   = ~You stupid girl, you cannot understand our most important mission!~
@91   = ~I have to agree with you on that... paladins are not what they used to be.~
@92   = ~Meh, whatever... let's go.~
@93   = ~Alright.~
@94   = ~Uh... you heard me, heh...~
@95   = ~Well, I'm surprised you're smart enough to notice it... yes, corruption seems to reach even this order now.~
@96   = ~But anyway, we're not here to solve that. Let's go...~
@97   = ~Uh, you heard me...!~
@98   = ~Sure, sure I can't understand... please excuse me, Your Grace...~
@99   = ~(Something tells you Imoen is being sarcastic...)~
@100  = ~Oops... you heard me...?~
@101  = ~I meant nothing, really...! Just let's go on, alright?~
@102  = ~Huh? No, nothing, nothing... let's go.~
@103  = ~Yeah, sure you will...~
@104  = ~Yeah, sure you have...~
@105  = ~So you finally joined a temple...~
@106  = ~I had always thought you were a 'freelance' cleric.~
@107  = ~These Helm people seem to be too obsessed with their great eyes an' all that crap... uh... no offense, heh...~
@108  = ~At least you joined a pleasant bunch. A lil' bit pansy for my taste though... uh... no offense, heh...~
@109  = ~But, ugh, did ya have to enter into league with these nasty sods obsessed with destruction an' all that crap? Uh... no offense, heh...~
@110  = ~Oh well... at least it's a nice place for you to rest, hmmm?~
@111  = ~Imoen, it's much more than that... here my spirit feels at ease.~
@112  = ~Yes it is... I feel comfortable here.~
@113  = ~I guess... it's a place as good as any other, to tell the truth.~
@114  = ~Well, I don't really like being here, but it's the price for having good contacts inside the clergy.~
@115  = ~Take back your words at once. I won't allow such blasphemy in my presence.~
@116  = ~You should follow the ways of the true god, like me, and leave that heathen life of yours behind!~
@117  = ~Yeah, whatever... let's get out of here, all these clerics make me sick.~
@118  = ~Yeah, I knew you still were an 'independent soul' (She winks at you.)~
@119  = ~Yeah, whatever you say...~
@120  = ~Ah, heheh, so it's like that, huh?~
@121  = ~Yeah well... I wouldn't say that precisely...~
@122  = ~Y'know, I've never given much thought to gods, I don't really believe in all that wash...~
@123  = ~D'oh, I know they exist, how could I ignore that...? I'm the child of one of them! But what I mean is that I've always ignored them.~
@124  = ~You leave them alone, they leave you alone. We don't bother each other, y'see?~
@125  = ~Oh well... let's get outta here, all these fanatics make me sick-- uh... I mean... I want some fresh air, that's it...~
@126  = ~Heh, pretty village... peaceful.~
@127  = ~So you say you protect this people's forest, hmm?~
@128  = ~An' where's yer cabin?~
@129  = ~To the west, it's a short walk from here.~
@130  = ~Why do you want to know?~
@131  = ~It's near, but we don't have the time to go there.~
@132  = ~That's nothing you should care about, Imoen. Shut up.~
@133  = ~(Imoen sighs) yes, <PRO_LADYLORD> of the Moose and Squirrels, as you wish...~
@134  = ~Alright, we can't spare five ridiculous minutes...~
@135  = ~Don't know... I'm curious. I wanna see it...~
@136  = ~Alright, take me there then...~
@137  = ~Ohh, what a lovely place...~
@138  = ~Silent... comfy... a nice place to call 'home'... (Imoen thinks of what she just said, and jumps a little.)~
@139  = ~<CHARNAME>, it's... it's HOME! This is a place to call home, the 'somewhere to go' when we settle down...!~
@140  = ~It... sounds so strange...~
@141  = ~Indeed... but do you think you could live in a place like this?~
@142  = ~(Embrace her from behind and whisper to her ear) Just imagine it, Imoen... spending the rest of our lives together in here...~
@143  = ~Imoen, it's *MY* home. Find yours somewhere else.~
@144  = ~I don't intend to protect these forests forever, so I wouldn't consider this 'home', Imoen...~
@145  = ~Well, I don't have a mind to 'settle down' any time soon... I don't think I'll ever settle down, in fact.~
@146  = ~I'd love to stay here for the rest of my days... but there's something that must be done. We should get moving.~
@147  = ~(Imoen sighs) Right you are... let's go.~
@148  = ~Well, to tell the truth I've not even thought of it... I mean, I've thought of having a *home*, but not of *living* somewhere...~
@149  = ~I guess the road is our home, after all. But it's good knowing there's someplace that awaits ya, wherever you are...~
@150  = ~I must admit I can't see myself staying in one place for too long. I need to be moving all the time... I'm like one of those Kenders in the novels we read in Candlekeep, heh...~
@151  = ~Speaking of which, we should be doing some serious traveling right now...~
@152  = ~(With a last glance to the cabin, Imoen sighs and motions to the exit.)~
@153  = ~Hmpf... you spoilsport...~
@154  = ~Meh, anyway I guess the road is our home, after all. But it's nice to know there's someplace that awaits me, wherever I am...~
@155  = ~I must admit that I can't see myself staying in one place for too long. I need to be moving all the time... like one of those Kenders in the novels we read in Candlekeep, heh...~
@156  = ~(With a last glance to the cabin, Imoen sighs and motions to the exit, shaking her head.)~
@157  = ~(Imoen can't help laughing at your words) Hahah, ya serious? I'd *die* of boredom here...! (She kisses your hand in an attempt to 'soften' her reply.)~
@158  = ~I actually doubt I could ever stay someplace for too long... you know, I just like the idea of having somewhere to go no matter where I am... like "I'm tired, I'll go home"... y'know what I mean? Yeah... I love that idea...~
@159  = ~I've found that I need to be moving all the time, at least for now... I'm like one of those Kenders in the novels we read in Candlekeep, heh...~
@160  = ~Why ya say that?~
@161  = ~I've always imagined you ruling a palace, not living quietly in a tiny cabin...~
@162  = ~Don't know, you would get *very* bored... and I know that *I* would suffer the consequences of that...!~
@163  = ~You know better than me the answer to that question...~
@164  = ~I don't really know... I just felt the need to say something.~
@165  = ~Because what you really deserve is some filthy sewers, like the rat you are!~
@166  = ~(Imoen huffs, not able to help a smile, and punches your arm playfully) You prat...! Ya think yer funny dontcha?~
@167  = ~Yeah well... good for you...~
@168  = ~I suppose...~
@169  = ~(Imoen giggles) Ya can be sure of that...!~
@170  = ~(Imoen takes a deep breath and looks around her, apparently enjoying what she sees.)~
@171  = ~So ya own this neat grove, huh?~
@172  = ~Yeah right, I know you don't *own* it, but y'know what I mean...~
@173  = ~I'm sure there's a nice'n'dandy story full of crazy people about how you came to "rule" this place, heheh...~
@174  = ~Sure there is... (Tell her all about it as she wishes.)~
@175  = ~I'll tell you... for a price, heheh... (touch your smiling lips with your index finger...)~
@176  = ~Yes, but it's too long and boring to spare the time...~
@177  = ~Not at all; Trademeet hired me, I came along, killed everyone, and claimed it mine... and was paid for it to boot!~
@178  = ~Yes, and it's none of your business.~
@179  = ~No there isn't. Let's go.~
@180  = ~(Imoen huffs at your words) I just don't know why you have to be so mean sometimes... maybe you should change your under garments more often.~
@181  = ~At least the *place* is pleasant...~
@182  = ~Yeah, you've got a talent for telling stories, dontcha? (Imoen rolls her eyes.)~
@183  = ~Oh well... nice place you got here, I'll enjoy roaming about, heh...~
@184  = ~OH bugger... why you always have 'long stories'? I want long stories too!~
@185  = ~I can do better than that... (Imoen approaches you and wraps her arms around your waist pulling you close. Her open mouth beckons for yours and, as she kisses you, her tongue begins to explore every corner of your mouth...)~ [MRImRom6]
@186  = ~Hmm... alright. Not a bad story, heh...~
@187  = ~Oh well... nice place you got here, I'll enjoy roaming about and talking to the birds and kicking the rabbits, heheh...~
@188  = ~(Ignoring their comments, Imoen continues to caress you with her tongue. The kiss, and the pressure of her warm body against yours is becoming quite a distraction, so much that breathing is becoming to be a difficult task to accomplish.)~
@189  = ~(She finally relents, but only after she licks your lips one more time, smiling in anticipation.)~
@190  = ~Uh... about that story...~
@191  = ~W-what got into you...?~
@192  = ~I liked that... a lot, Imoen...~
@193  = ~Well, uh... we should get moving...~
@194  = ~To hell with the damn story...~
@195  = ~(Imoen smiles again mischievously, even naughtily.)~
@196  = ~I want you. I *need* you... now.~
@197  = ~(Nod your head and smile, more that pleased to hear that.)~
@198  = ~You don't have to ask twice!~
@199  = ~umm, Imoen, I don't think this is the place or the time...~
@200  = ~That's something I would have never expected from you... but I like it!~
@201  = ~Alright, bring it on, harlot!~
@202  = ~Well, I don't. Stop it, I'm not in the mood.~
@203  = ~You sounded like a dirty Copper Coronet wench, Imoen. I'm really disappointed in you... you are not the woman I fell in love with.~
@204  = ~(Imoen's smile fades. She seems very surprised by your words and is paler than normal. She would have never expected you to reject her advances like that.)~
@205  = ~B-- but I... (The look in her eyes is painful, even for you. She has become rigid in your arms uncertain as to why you would be so cruel, and why she would reveal her yearnings to you in the first place.)~
@206  = ~(Imoen forcefully pushes you away, her eyes reflecting more and more pain as they fill with tears.)~
@207  = ~I hate you! Leave me alone!!~
@208  = ~(Without any other words she moves away, refusing to stay by the side of someone who has humiliated her like you just did.)~
@209  = ~(Imoen's is at a loss for words) B-- but <CHARNAME>...!~
@210  = ~Oh alright... it's impossible to resist you, no matter how I try...~
@211  = ~I'm serious... I'm not in the mood, please leave it for some other time...~
@212  = ~But... uh (She whispers to you in embarrassment) but <CHARNAME>, what do *I* do now...? I, um, I can't... I need... y-- y'know...!~
@213  = ~I'm sorry...~
@214  = ~You sound like a dirty Copper Coronet wench, Imoen. I'm really disappointed in you... you are not the woman I fell in love with.~
@215  = ~UUrrgh! Ya just *can't* do something for me, huh!?~
@216  = ~Fine! I'll... find a tree or something!! I don't know why I feel like this, but I can't stand it!~
@217  = ~(Imoen's smile fades, and she releases you. She would have never expected you to tell her something like that, not even joking; taken aback by your words, her face begins to redden.)~ 
@218  = ~"Harlot"!? I'm not your Harlot, you miserable bastard!! I don't know what got into me, leave me alone!!~
@219  = ~You won't ever touch me again.~
@220  = ~(Imoen licks her lips.)~
@221  = ~(Imoen licks her lips and smiles) I bet I can change your mind about that...~
@222  = ~(She kisses you again, sliding her hands from your waist down to your hips. Pulling you even closer, she presses against you again.)~
@223  = ~(Driven by passion Imoen leads you deeper into the grove, and while kissing you, "forces" you to the ground.)~
@224  = ~(You roll in the grass like love-struck teens, oblivious to everything but each other's caresses...)~
@225  = ~<CHARNAME>...~ [MRImRom5]
@226  = ~I'm sorry for what I said and... *did*... back then...~
@227  = ~I don't know what got into me... it was like... like a weird tingly sensation all over my body...~
@228  = ~And *you* were the only way to make it go away. It just wasn't me, I behaved like... well, like a slut. And you know that's not me, right...?~
@229  = ~I... don't feel proud of myself...~
@230  = ~Imoen... are you saying that you didn't enjoy what we shared...?~
@231  = ~Oh Imoen, there's nothing to feel ashamed about... you have a body and your body has needs. We are *alive* after all...~
@232  = ~I can assure you that you should...! It was one of the best experiences in my life...!~
@233  = ~Why?~
@234  = ~I understand... you were really... *intense*...~
@235  = ~Yes, and I am certainly disappointed in you...~
@236  = ~Bah, I knew you were a harlot, it is about time you accepted it.~
@237  = ~(Imoen stares at you coldly) That I say I behaved like one doesn't give you the right to tell me that, <CHARNAME>. If I'm apologizing for what I did it's because I can't stand thinking of it.~
@238  = ~And now it's even worse, having heard that from you. I don't care if you were joking, which I certainly doubt. It didn't make me feel proud, but now it sickens me... that I shared such intense feelings with you. You have mistaken me... badly.~
@239  = ~And to prove I despise what we did last night, you won't touch me again. It's only fair, don't you think?~
@240  = ~Well, if you haven't guessed already, I don't care what you think anymore. It is over. There will never be an 'us' anymore, you understand?~
@241  = ~Yes, I don't care for that either, you guessed right.~
@242  = ~(Imoen grabs her clothes, dresses quickly, and leaves your side... you hear her sob and sniffle from where you lie.)~
@243  = ~Please, please don't say that... it's hard enough for me, don't tell me that...! I know...~
@244  = ~Saying that is a euphemism...~
@245  = ~"Why"!?~
@246  = ~I'm not talking about *that*, you dumbhead!~
@247  = ~Yeah, well, but it was too much...~
@248  = ~No, no, don't misunderstand... it was great... incredibly great... sublime I'd say...! But it's that...~
@249  = ~I acted like... like a *whore*! I had no restraint at all, I just wanted sex, the rougher the better!!~
@250  = ~I can't stand seeing myself like that... and don't worry, I'm not blaming you for letting me do it, I know you just wanted to please me and all... in fact I doubt I'd have let you stop me back then.~
@251  = ~I love sweetness... I love tenderness... I love passion born from love, not from desire... but it's desire that ruled me some hours ago. You were only... only a tool for my pleasure... and not the one that I love more than my own life...~
@252  = ~Gosh I didn't even notice when I got that nosebleed! Just what got into me!?~
@253  = ~I don't know, Imoen... but don't worry, I'm sure it was something you sniffed here or something... there are bugs that provoke that kind of reaction when they bite, didn't you know?~
@254  = ~I'm almost sure that it was that Teelunaria Drasiphea you see over there. Its' pollen if sniffed by someone who is allergic, has that kind of effect.~
@255  = ~Perhaps... you are changing, Imoen...? It's known as 'growing up' by some people...~
@256  = ~I'll love you no matter how naughty you can get, Imoen... (Beam a smile at her.)~
@257  = ~Yeah, whatever. We should be on the road already.~
@258  = ~It's simple: you finally accepted that you are a dirty harlot.~
@259  = ~Now that's "sweet and tender" of you, <CHARNAME>... c'mon, I don't want to bore you anymore with my stupid and meaningless worries.~
@260  = ~Good. Let's go.~
@261  = ~... ya aren't very familiar with sarcasm, ar'ya...?~
@262  = ~It's not a matter of *you* loving me...! It's a matter of *me* liking *myself*! And I DON'T like a sex-crazed Imoen that does all sort of dirty things just because she wants pleasure!!~
@263  = ~I've "grown up" more than enough for my liking, thank you...~
@264  = ~Uh... really?~
@265  = ~Hmm... I hadn't thought of that... are you sure?~
@266  = ~Hey I'm a druid, it's my job, heh...~
@267  = ~Well, no... I think that perhaps you are just changing. It's known as 'growing up' by some people...~
@268  = ~Not really, but I'll love you no matter how naughty you get, Imoen... (Beam a smile at her.)~
@269  = ~No, and I don't really care... We should be on the road already.~
@270  = ~I think it's much simpler: you finally accepted that you are a dirty whore.~
@271  = ~I must get a grip on my desires. I don't want to become a... a *Viconia*!~
@272  = ~So alright... (She kisses your shoulder) from now on, less sex, more love, you understand? So you better be a sweet <PRO_MANWOMAN>, hmm? (Winking at you, she takes her clothes and stands up to put them on.)~
@273  = ~(She smiles, and kisses your shoulder) Good to hear that... I was worried... I just don't want to, don't know, become some kind of dirty sex slut or something... (winking at you, she takes her clothes and stands up to put them on.)~
@274  = ~(As she does so you notice she looks much more calm, happier. Who cares if you invented that absurd story? Who cares if she wanted to believe it? The important thing is that she's not worried anymore...)~
@275  = ~(You open your eyes to see Imoen looking at you as she rests on her elbows, naked beside you under your blankets. Her hair, still disheveled, surrounds her face in a rose whirlwind.)~
@276  = ~MMmmmn... you know... I'm beginning to think trees are an aphrodisiac for me. Let’s find some place more private, eh?~
@277  = ~Why doesn't this surprise me?~
@278  = ~Again we must wait while these primal beasts satisfy their urges...~
@279  = ~Uh... and what are we supposed to do in the meantime...?~
@280  = ~Uh... and what am I supposed to do in the meantime...?~
@281  = ~Oh well... Let's explore this grove a little , Boo!~
@282  = ~Well, I can always sharpen my weapons again.~
@283  = ~(Keldorn sighs and sits down) Patience is a virtue, they say.~
@284  = ~Bloody twits... bloody trees, bloody animals...! Bloody grove...!~
@285  = ~Imoen, no! (Aerie turns to you, true anger in her eyes) Y-- you are a cruel... a cruel piece of-- of SHIT, <CHARNAME>!! Imoen, wait!!~
@286  = ~(Imoen runs crying into the grove.)~
@287  = ~I second that. You are a bastard.~
@288  = ~Imoen! (Nalia turns to you) You bastard!...~
@289  = ~I pity you, <CHARNAME>.~
@290  = ~For once we agree on something, half-breed.~
@291  = ~Pathetic.~
@292  = ~I should let Boo eat your ears off, you cruel one!~
@293  = ~(You don't understand why she got so upset. Perhaps your words were true after all.)~
@294  = ~(You are almost overwhelmed by her intensity; your playful suggestion has triggered a surge of passion and desire you would have never expected.) ~
@295  = ~I am no longer surprised by your behaviour...~
@296  = ~Oh Jaheira, leave them be... they seem so happy...~
@297  = ~Hehehee... it's so sweet... no, really, you should stop to catch your breath a little...!~
@298  = ~Oh here we go again... don’t you two ever get enough of that...?~
@299  = ~I be sick of yer neverendin' bloody huggin' an' kissin'!~
@300  = ~This dwarf is right, stop wasting my time, kl'eril auflaqui.~
@301  = ~Your never ending kisses are making me sick already, kl'eril auflaqui.~
@302  = ~Whoa, a playhouse... surprising I'd say. Didn't think ya'd have the time to spend running it... with this whole Irenicus thing I mean.~
@303  = ~So, you had time to get this place *and* earn the money to come and rescue me...? You could have hurried a little more, dontcha think??~
@304  = ~Actually, it started as a way of earning money... (tell her the entire playhouse story.)~
@305  = ~Well, this playhouse contributed to the amount...~
@306  = ~I had to be prepared, Imoen... we've talked about this already.~
@307  = ~I could, but didn't want to. And I am beginning to remember why now...~
@308  = ~Imoen... save your words for someone interested in them.~
@309  = ~(Imoen rolls her eyes at your words, pursing her lips) Alright, you're in one of your "I'm-too-good-for-you" moods... I'll leave ya alone so you can calm your hormones a little, hmm?~
@310  = ~(She sighs with resignation.)~
@311  = ~Yeah, well, whatever you say... the more you got prepared the more I agonized inside a cell, y'see?~
@312  = ~Yeah well, whatever you say...~
@313  = ~Are... you telling me... that you got to travel through PLANES... *without me*!?~
@314  = ~How many more *great* things have I missed!? Did you ride a pegasus, visit Calimshan, or kill some dragons!?~
@315  = ~Heh, actually, that last thing...~
@316  = ~Well it was quite a trial getting the money, but you know that already...~
@317  = ~Yeah, I wanted to do all those things without having you pestering me.~
@318  = ~That's none of your concern.~
@319  = ~Yeah, well, that's right.~
@320  = ~Acks just don't tell me, alright!? You'll have to repay me for that. For your own good; it would be better if I don't miss anything else...~
@321  = ~But anyway... (she looks around her, analyzing the whole room) It's a nice place you've got here.~
@322  = ~C'mon, let's go...~
@323  = ~Wait, wait Imoen... umm... wouldn't you like to... play here?~
@324  = ~Don't you want to perform for my public? (wink at her.)~
@325  = ~(While she is still distracted, you lock your hands together behind her back and pull her towards you so you can kiss her.)~
@326  = ~I am the one that gives orders here. *I* say when we "go" and when we "stay".~
@327  = ~(Imoen is surprised by your sudden ardour, but she gladly returns your favors. When you finally stop to take a breath, she smiles and nuzzles you affectionately.)~
@328  = ~I don't know why ya did that... but it's not like you need a reason, it's okay with me, heh...~
@329  = ~Well, I wanted to 'soften' you up before I asked you something about the playhouse, heheh...~
@330  = ~*You* are my reason, Imoen... the one and only in my life.~
@331  = ~That's right... let's move on...~
@332  = ~Imoen... upstairs there are plenty of rooms to rent... *wink wink*~
@333  = ~Ogh, and you had to ruin it with that, huh? I told you... four times a ten-day. No more. (She giggles, winks, and walks off a few paces.)~
@334  = ~(But turns to consider you with a gleam in her eye.)~
@335  = ~(Imoen slides back over to you again, takes your head in her hands and whispers softly in your ear.)~
@336  = ~... you know I was only joking... right...? (Imoen gently nips at your earlobe and steps away, with a suggestive look in her eyes...)~
@337  = ~(Imoen sighs deeply) So sweet...~
@338  = ~But we should be moving already, <CHARNAME>...! And I won't be able to do so if you keep holding me so... so tenderly...~
@339  = ~*ahem* Maybe you should release me while I still can manage some... restraint.~
@340  = ~No, no, wait... I wanted to ask you something about the playhouse...~
@341  = ~And just *who* would want you to do that??~
@342  = ~Oh, alright...~
@343  = ~Imoen... upstairs there are plenty of rooms awaiting us... *wink wink*~
@344  = ~Go on then...~
@345  = ~I was wondering if you would play here, Imoen. You'd be famous...!~
@346  = ~You can perform here for my public (wink at her.)~
@347  = ~Um, no, on second thought, it was nothing...~
@348  = ~(Imoen shrugs) Whatever...~
@349  = ~(Imoen opens wide her eyes and steps away from you) P-p-play here? In f-- front of *people*!? No way, not a chance!!~
@350  = ~But Imoen, why?? You are great, and you played in front of me...!~
@351  = ~But Imoen, why?? You are great, and you played in front of me and the rest of the party...!~
@352  = ~Oh don't be a chicken... that's not you!~
@353  = ~Hmmm... I'll pay you, heheh...~
@354  = ~Whoa, didn't think you'd get so upset...~
@355  = ~Yeah you're right, you have no talent at all, I'll forget about it and forget about all the money I'd earn with you performing up there...~
@356  = ~Fine, no need to get mad... you don't have to do anything if you don't want to!~
@357  = ~Meh, you're pathetic. Bugger off.~
@358  = ~Hah, reverse psychology? I'm smarter than that, thank you...~
@359  = ~There's no way you can get me on a stage, so forget about it!~
@360  = ~But-~
@361  = ~oh, oka-~
@362  = ~Bah!~
@363  = ~Hush! I'm final on that!~
@364  = ~Of course I don't need it, that's why I *won't* do it!!~
@365  = ~Well I do! There's no way you can get me on a stage, so forget about it!!~
@366  = ~Yeah, you'll pay me, and then... (Imoen rolls her eyes) just WHO you think I am, you cur??~
@367  = ~There's no way you can get me on a stage, so forget about it!!~
@368  = ~Well it's ME when it comes to *this*...! There's no way you can get me on a stage, so forget about it!!~
@369  = ~That's completely different! I played for *you* because you have been with me all my life and gave me enough confidence...!~
@370  = ~But-- but *there* (she points at the stage) I'd dissolve into a mustard jelly in matter of seconds!!~
@371  = ~Oh c'mon Imoen... do it for me... pretty please?~
@372  = ~Your talent is such that I'd take that risk if I were you, Imoen...~
@373  = ~But, heh, I'll pay you a good sum...!~
@374  = ~Can't you promise me that at least you'll play again for me...?~
@375  = ~Yeah but luckily *you* are not *me*! And this IMOEN you see here says there's no way you can get her on a stage, so forget about it!!~
@376  = ~Oh-ho-ho, NOPE. There's no way you can get me on a stage, so forget about it!!~
@377  = ~Uh, for-- y-yeah, of course... some day, heheh. But *not* up there... I will *never* get on a stage, understand?~
@378  = ~Huff... that was an unpleasant experience...~
@379  = ~But... (She gets closer to you, pressing her body against yours and draping her arms around your neck) do you really believe that I'm great...?~
@380  = ~Well, you're not bad yourself... (Stroking your lips with a slender finger she steps away again, a smile playing at the corners of her mouth.)~
@381  = ~So *we* run a thieves guild now, huh? Well ya have to start somewhere, people say...~
@382  = ~But I hope yer not killing anyone, <CHARNAME>... thieving is fun, but killin' is another matter. And pressing the poor folk isn't right either, *for your own good* I hope yer only stealin' from those that can spare it, otherwise I think I'll have to take control here and change some things...~
@383  = ~Hmmm... it might be fun...~
@384  = ~You don't have to worry, I run this place as righteously as a thief can be in his ways...~
@385  = ~Give an order to *my* men and you will be thinking about it for a long time in *my* prison, Imoen.~
@386  = ~Imoen, if we need the money, there are things that are unavoidable sometimes.~
@387  = ~I do what is most profitable. Don't question my ways.~
@388  = ~Well, don't know... I may be doing some of those things, but I can change that right now.~
@389  = ~My guild is the bloodiest of all!! Let the pillage continue, mwahahahaah!!~
@390  = ~Alright, I don't want to have anything to do with your pitiful guild of barbarians. The art of thievery deserves some respect, <CHARNAME>...~
@391  = ~It's one of the few things that *really* need a code of honor... and you're blatantly disregarding that.~
@392  = ~Huh? I didn't know you were so *proud* of 'stealing'...~
@393  = ~Right you are. Let's go.~
@394  = ~You sound so high and mighty. Quit it.~
@395  = ~Whatever...~
@396  = ~Then do it! If you don't want to be the shame of the thieves, leave those activities to someone without any respect for the job...~
@397  = ~Oh well excuse me, Shadowmaster! The all time expert thief has spoken!~
@398  = ~Pfeh... don't know why I bother...~
@399  = ~Yeah, but we *don't need* the money anymore, so you can leave those activities for those with little or no respect for the job.~
@400  = ~that's good t'hear. I just can't stand those that call themselves 'thieves' and don't respect the job at all...~
@401  = ~Hmpf...~
@402  = ~Yeah, why not? When done correctly it's *art* I tell ya. Well, don't know... I should be proud of something I've been doing nearly all my life, huh?~
@403  = ~But there are these good for nothing criminals that go around backstabbing peasants for a few dirty coins who call themselves thieves. They stink.~
@404  = ~A thief is an artist that does things in a very special way, not a bully who abuses peasants and blackmails poor sods that don't deserve it. (She winks at you) Remember that, so sayeth the wise Imoen!!~
@405  = ~Hmm...~
@406  = ~Weird place...~
@407  = ~Yep, and it's all mine!~
@408  = ~(Embrace her smiling widely) Don't you like it? It's perfect, it will be our home!~
@409  = ~Get used to it, it's the closest to 'home' you have right now...~
@410  = ~Yeah, you're right. But you'll find it's pretty spacious and comfortable too.~
@411  = ~And it gets more and more weird as you walk through it. It sickens me, as a matter of fact.~
@412  = ~I won't allow you to offend me and my belongings like that. Tell her you are sorry, now.~
@413  = ~Must you always say something? Why can't you shut your mouth, Imoen!?~
@414  = ~Well excuse me, my <PRO_LADYLORD>! I'll keep silent, enjoy your stupid smelly sphere in silence!~
@415  = ~Troll brain...~
@416  = ~Uh... tell who, exactly?~
@417  = ~Oh forget about it... what you think of my great place?~
@418  = ~Meh, you don't understand, no one ever understands!~
@419  = ~HER! The sphere!! Can't you hear her, you hurt the feelings of my poor little planar sphere...~
@420  = ~Agh, shut up!! Must you always say something? Why can't you shut your mouth, Imoen!?~
@421  = ~Yeah that's right. Hearing the voices in your head again, huh? Don't worry, think of strawberries. It always helps...~
@422  = ~(Imoen rolls her eyes.)~
@423  = ~Alright, very well... um, excuse me, Miss Planar Sphere... I am very sorry for hurting your feelings, I won't do it again, Miss Planar Sphere...~
@424  = ~(Imoen slowly steps away from you...)~
@425  = ~Yay... We have a huge gray ball all to ourselves... excuse me if I don't jump from joy.~
@426  = ~Apart from *stinking*, does it do something...?~
@427  = ~It traveled through planes, but now it's broken.~
@428  = ~It's nothing of your business.~
@429  = ~It's a huge ice cream factory.~
@430  = ~Not at all...~
@431  = ~Actually, it was built in the future as an enormous cinema set. "The Matrix V: Crazy Computers Strike Back" will be filmed inside here in about four thousand years... so I can say that this thing time-travels too.~
@432  = ~Wow, The Matrix *FIVE*!? That's great! It's the greatest news I've had in ages!~
@433  = ~Now if you'll excuse me, I'm *so* excited I think I'll move away from you to calm down a little... don't worry, stay there...!~
@434  = ~(To herself) Pfft... cinema...? The Matrix Five?? Crazy sod...~
@435  = ~... Everyone knows The Matrix is a trilogy, and that nearly everything is done by computer...~
@436  = ~Yeah, well, very funny...~
@437  = ~Really? Wow... that'd be great... maybe I can get to fixing it when all of this ends... if it ever does! I'm sure it's only a matter some kicks in the right places and it will purr like a kitty again...~
@438  = ~Oh well... <CHARNAME>, hand over some gold. We're going shopping for some curtains, cushions, and a dresser with a mirror... (she sighs, and immediately coughs) Yuk... first of all let's get rid of this *awful* smell!~
@439  = ~A lot of work needs to be done here... this requires a *massive* feminine touch! Hmmm... I'll get the golem to work on this place while we're not here...~
@440  = ~Excellent. See ya!~
@441  = ~Heheheee! Looks like the golem has a new master...!~
@442  = ~Imoen... I need the golem...~
@443  = ~(You shrug) Very well, I didn't really need it...~
@444  = ~Oh alright...~
@445  = ~Golemsey, yer under <CHARNAME>'s command again. But don't forget what I told you, you still have to do what I wanted you to do, alright?~
@446  = ~That's right, go on doing what I told you.~
@447  = ~Yeah, well, I speak on his behalf. Look, Golemsey, I need you to...-~
@448  = ~This servant obeys only <CHARNAME>.~
@449  = ~Yeah, yeah, I heard you the first time, cut that crap already. First thing you'll do-~
@450  = ~This servant obeys only <CHARNAME>.~
@451  = ~What's wrong with you? It's very simple, the only thing you gotta do is-~
@452  = ~This servant obeys onl-~

@453  = ~...~
@454  = ~... This serv-~
@455  = ~DO YOU WANT TO BE IN PIECES INSIDE THOSE TANKS AGAIN, GOLEM!?~
@456  = ~This servant obeys.~
@457  = ~That's what I thought. Don't leave any of those Halfling innards lying on the ground, they stink really bad... and open some windows. If there aren't, make some, understood?~
@458  = ~This servant obeys only Imoen.~
@459  = ~This servant obeys Imoen.~
@460  = ~What the...!~
@461  = ~Wow so this is your place, "<PRO_LADYLORD> <CHARNAME>"...? It's darn huge!~
@462  = ~(Imoen sighs) Finally, a castle of my own. Every lady should have a castle... Well, a keep... it's a castle in miniature. Just the way I like it...~
@463  = ~(Ignoring you, she steps into the main room and takes a look around.)~
@464  = ~Lady Imoen. Yeah, sounds great. Hmmm...~
@465  = ~It's dark though... kinda creepy with this faint light. Hey, Major Domo! Prepare me a sandwich...~
@466  = ~Hmm, d'you think this Nalia would mind if I make some changes to the decor? Uh... wait a minute... she still lives here, doesn't she.?~
@467  = ~I think I got carried away by the thought of having my own home, heh...~
@468  = ~But anyway, I'll talk with Nalia, with my help she'll have the place a true lady deserves, heheh!~
@469  = ~(She keeps looking around while talking to herself) Oh but just look at that wood... it's nearly rotten! And that wall... hmm, a purple curtain would be nice there... but where's my sandwich?~
@470  = ~... huh? Oh, oh yeah, of course, what was I thinking...?~
@471  = ~But anyway, you should seriously consider changing the decor, I mean, don't know, adding some *feminine touches* for the place! Bare walls almost falling down, all that rotten wood... it's just something a lady would *not* have as home!~
@472  = ~Bah, details! Come, I'll tell you what I have in mind... (Imoen passes her arm around Nalia's shoulders and starts talking about curtains...)~
@473  = ~Umm, Imoen... it's still my home, <CHARNAME> is only as a kind of... figurehead... --no offense intended, <CHARNAME>...~
@474  = ~Well it just suffered a troll invasion...~
@475  = ~(Imoen frowns pursing her lips, the look she gets when she is uncomfortable or something troubles her.)~
@476  = ~(Gradually this expression turns into a slight smile) I guess the gypsy was right, hmm...?~
@477  = ~Alright... (she sighs) just promise you won't annoy me again...! Truth be told, I don't like being annoyed with you at all. It's like... something's missing, y'know?~
@478  = ~So there... consider yourself forgiven, dear <PRO_BROTHERSISTER> (she winks at you.) For your own good, it'd be better if you don't annoy me again!~

@518  = ~(Imoen turns to look at you. Confusion is clear in her face; blushing, she says nothing and walks away staring at the ground.)~
@519  = ~(Imoen turns to look at you. Confusion is clear in her face; frowning, she says nothing and walks away shaking her head.)~
@520  = ~(Imoen turns to look at you with an eyebrow raised, slightly confused.)~
@521  = ~That wasn't new... I *do* fear what may happen when we kill Bodhi... (She shrugs.)~
@522  = ~HAHAH! You cheated the troll brain... sorry, there's no reward here (Imoen looks up and sticks her tongue out at *YOU*.)~
@523  = ~(She  turns to look at you. When she speaks, Imoen is unable hide the fear that the gypsy's words have instilled in her.)~
@524  = ~<CHARNAME>... what... what did she mean...?~
@525  = ~Don't worry, Imoen... I will always be by your side.~
@526  = ~I don't know... she sounded pretty scary.~
@527  = ~Bah, don't believe a word, Imoen. These rom only try to cheat you.~
@528  = ~We are going to die, all is lost!~
@529  = ~I don't really care...~
@530  = ~I'm sure that woman saw many things, <CHARNAME>...~
@531  = ~(Imoen approaches you to rest her head on your chest) I... I don't want to lose you...~
@532  = ~I could not stand it... not anymore...~
@533  = ~Imoen, nothing will happen... I will always be here for you, I promise, no matter how difficult our path may become...~
@534  = ~Hmm... want me to kill that mean woman for you, Imoen?~
@535  = ~I swear not even fate will stand between us, Imoen.~
@536  = ~I wouldn't stand it either. But I don't know what to think...~
@537  = ~If it's our fate, I'm afraid we can't fight against it.~
@538  = ~I thought you didn't believe such things, Imoen; don't disappoint me.~
@539  = ~Bah, you're a fool to worry about that. Don't be stupid, Imoen!~
@540  = ~(Push her away from you) That woman is right: our relationship is over. Get away.~
@541  = ~(Imoen frowns at you) <CHARNAME>, if that's an attempt at being sarcastic, it's a *very bad* one.~
@542  = ~oh... I'm sorry, I thought I could get a smile from you...~
@543  = ~I'm not being sarcastic. It's what I'm trying to say: we should no longer be together.~
@544  = ~I don't like repeating myself, harpy. Get away.~
@545  = ~(Imoen looks at you in disbelief, her eyes wide as she tries to assimilate what you're suddenly telling her.)~
@546  = ~(She stares at you blankly, her heart racing, until she can hear nothing but her own throbbing pulse and the echoes of your cruel words.)~
@547  = ~Goodbye.~
@548  = ~(She turns around and simply leaves.)~
@549  = ~Well, you couldn't. I'm pretty frightened right now, can't you tell?~
@550  = ~Meh, you're too dumb. Come on, let's go. This thing has put me on edge...~
@551  = ~By the way, don't you *dare* leave my side. Stay close. And that's an order...! (With a worried kiss on your cheek, she passes her arm around your waist and stays like that for a while... holding you as close to her heart as she can.)~
@552  = ~Now that's the way of making me feel comfortable... (Imoen huffs) it isn't difficult to say something like "fate can't defy me" or "I'm here for you", y'know? Even if you didn't really think that...~
@553  = ~Meh, you're too dumb. Come on, let's go. This thing has really managed to upset me...~
@554  = ~That sounds beautiful, <CHARNAME>... but I really hope your cocky words have some truth in them...~
@555  = ~(She sighs) Come on, let's go. This thing has really managed to upset me...~
@556  = ~Hmpf, it isn't the best moment to joke about it y'know? That woman scared me... a lot...~
@557  = ~Oh, Imoen... I thought I could get a smile from your pretty face...~
@558  = ~I wasn't joking at all... I'd like to kill that woman.~
@559  = ~(Shrug) Whatever...~
@560  = ~What!? No, of course you won't kill that poor woman! Hmpf...~
@561  = ~(Imoen sighs, cuddling in your arms) I really want to believe that, <CHARNAME>...~
@562  = ~It sounds sad but it's like that... losing you would kill me. I couldn't stand it, I really couldn't...~
@563  = ~(She sighs again, burying her face in your chest. After some seconds, she worriedly kisses your cheek.)~
@564  = ~Don't you *dare* leave my side. Stay close... it's an order! (She passes her arm around your waist and stays like that for a while... holding you as close to her heart as she can.)~
@565  = ~(She  turns to look at you. When she speaks to you, Imoen can't hide the fear that the gypsy's words have instilled in her.)~
@566  = ~Don't worry, Imoen... I'm sure it's nothing we can't overcome.~
@567  = ~I'm sure that woman saw many things, <CHARNAME>... more than she let me know...~
@568  = ~Truth be told, I... I'm scared...~
@569  = ~And my hand really hurts! Don't know what's worse... that woman surely is strong...!~
@570  = ~Imoen, nothing will happen... I will always be here to help you.~
@571  = ~I swear I won't let even fate take you from my side again, Imoen.~
@572  = ~I don't really know what to think...~
@573  = ~If it's a matter of fate, I'm afraid we can't fight against it.~
@574  = ~This proves you are weak, leave my party, now.~
@575  = ~Go away.~
@576  = ~(She keeps staring at you, her gaze slowly turning into one of determination.)~
@577  = ~(She turns away and simply leaves.)~
@578  = ~Now that's the way of making me feel comfortable... (Imoen huffs) it isn't difficult to say something like "fate can't defy us" or "I'm here to help you", y'know? Even if you didn't really think that...~
@579  = ~That sounds good and all, <CHARNAME>... but I really hope your cocky words have some truth in them...~
@580  = ~Hmpf, it isn't the best moment to joke about it y'know? That woman scared me... a lot...!~
@581  = ~Oh, Imoen... I thought I could get a smile from you...~
@582  = ~(Imoen sighs) I really hope so, <CHARNAME>... I know I don't tell you often but... well, you're very important to me, you know...?~
@583  = ~Come on, let's go. This thing has really managed to upset me... (She punches your arm playfully) to the point that I'm actually telling you how much I appreciate you! What got into my head...!?~
@584  = ~(Something tells you the gypsy wasn't talking about the confrontation with Bodhi at all...)~
@585  = ~(Looking at the gypsy quizzically, you wonder what else she saw but neglected to tell Imoen...)~
@586  = ~Hmpf... if you haven't figured it out, I'm still angry at you, <CHARNAME>! Go bother some other poor soul with your questions...~
@587  = ~Please Imoen... I hate being annoyed with you, it feels like a part of me is missing... let's be friends again, eh?~
@588  = ~Whatever, Imoen.~
@589  = ~Bitch...~
@590  = ~(Imoen purses her lips but after a few seconds this expression melts into a friendly smile) I do agree with you, <CHARNAME>...~
@591  = ~It feels awful being upset with you, no matter what you said... you're my <PRO_BROTHERSISTER> after all (She winks at you.)~
@592  = ~(She scowls further) Hmpf...! You told me a similar thing before, <CHARNAME>, and you've loused it up again...! Why should I forgive you now!?~
@593  = ~(Looking at you, Imoen can't help but soften her expression, almost smiling) Oh, alright... if it wasn't for this horrible feeling of 'wrongness' that gets inside me when I'm annoyed with you, you wouldn't be so lucky!~
@594  = ~So what is it you wanted to know, hmm?~
@595  = ~About your soul...~
@596  = ~Nah, nothing, it wasn't important, don't mind me.~
@597  = ~I'd cast one if you didn't keep telling me these *INCREDIBLY INTERESTING* things...~
@598  = ~Um, didn't you ask me that before? And didn't I tell you it wouldn't be nice of me to tell you?~
@599  = ~Don't worry about that... I simply want to know if you feel alright...~
@600  = ~don't mind that, tell me, I'm curious...~
@601  = ~I guess you're right... it wouldn't be pleasant.~
@602  = ~And since when has that worried you, dirty harlot?~
@603  = ~(Imoen raises an eyebrow at the question, looking at you with hesitation.)~
@604  = ~Well, telling you wouldn't be very nice of me, dontcha think? Would be like "Hey, look, I have candy, but you can't have any!"...~
@605  = ~... I don't find that comparison very... appropriate, Imoen...~
@606  = ~So having your soul is like having lots of candy!? Now I *really* want my soul...!~
@607  = ~Hmm... now that you mention it...! But you're mistaken, my name isn't Dirty Harlot, it's Imoen... you should stop fornicating with hamsters, I'm sure it affects your memory somehow...~
@608  = ~That wouldn't happen to me, since I have my soul... did ya know that? Did you know I have my soul? Hmm... who doesn't...? Oh, yeah, *you* don't have a soul, but know what? I do!~
@609  = ~Hmm... that was quite bitchy indeed... Oh well... (Imoen shrugs.)~
@610  = ~See? Wait till we tear it out of Irenicus' dead body so you can find out what it's like for yourself...~
@611  = ~Yep... you can think that...~
@612  = ~Hmpf, you understand what I mean or not??~
@613  = ~So do I tell you or...?~
@614  = ~Yes, please...~
@615  = ~tell me.~
@616  = ~Better if you don't...~
@617  = ~NO!!~
@618  = ~(Imoen jumps a little) Whoa! You don't have to yell about it, y'know?~
@619  = ~Wait till we tear it out of Irenicus' dead body so you can find out what it's like for yourself...~
@620  = ~(Imoen shrugs) okay...~
@621  = ~I'm fine, <CHARNAME>...~
@622  = ~Well, alright... to tell the truth, I feel like... well, umm... it's... it's something like when... ah...~
@623  = ~(She looks at you thoughtfully, trying to find a way to express her feelings) I feel *whole*. The truth is that I don't know what it is, but it's like I'm complete again... and I feel *alive*.~
@624  = ~Y'know, that emptiness deep inside that clenched my heart... it's gone. It's not that I feel happier, or that I feel my soul pumping inside me or something like that, it's just that I feel normal again.~
@625  = ~You understand?~
@626  = ~I'm happy to hear that, Imoen...~
@627  = ~Yeah, more or less. I know that feeling of hollowness too...~
@628  = ~That was... cruel of you... you know what I'm feeling right now, I didn't need to know that...~
@629  = ~Yes. Let's move out.~
@630  = ~Not really, but it doesn't matter, let's move out.~
@631  = ~Not at all. Could you explain it better to me?~
@632  = ~... you are stupid, aren't you? Your way of explaining it makes my stomach churn.~
@633  = ~What the--!?~
@634  = ~Then why did you ask me!? Oh-oh, wait, it's *me* who has her soul back... something *you* haven't! Y'know what, it's great to have it, I feel so *good*, a shame you can't experience this, a true shame...~
@635  = ~Now if you'll excuse me, I think I'll enjoy my soul a little... want to come? Oh, sorry, I forgot you *don't* have one...!~
@636  = ~C'mon it isn't that difficult to understand, don't play dumb with me! There's no other way of explaining it: I am whole again. I feel normal, and that feeling is really great. Can't find another way of putting it...!~
@637  = ~Oh alright... guess that will do.~
@638  = ~I still can't imagine it...~
@639  = ~I got it. Thanks...~
@640  = ~Did you have to be that cruel!? I feel horrible and you tell me all that...~
@641  = ~That's because you are too obtuse and pathetic.~
@642  = ~(Imoen sighs) Then I guess you'll have to wait 'til you get yours to know for yourself.~
@643  = ~Alright... (With an indifferent shrug, Imoen walks away.)~
@644  = ~See? Hey, I warned you, so don't try to blame me now! Just don't worry, we'll get your soul back soon...~
@645  = ~But... (Imoen approaches you further, an alluring smile on her face) I can share mine with you until you get your own... if you know what I mean...~
@646  = ~(She puts one hand behind your neck and draws your mouth towards hers for a brief kiss) Don't worry, <CHARNAME>... you'll find Irenicus, and you'll have your soul...~
@647  = ~And I will be there standing by your side to see it... (After kissing you again, this time more intensely, she gives you a supportive hug and moves away with a smile.)~
@648  = ~(Imoen sighs) I feel sorry for you, <CHARNAME>. Just don't worry, we'll get your soul back soon, and then that horrible feeling will disappear, I'm sure...~
@649  = ~But I feel sorry for you nevertheless... just don't worry, we'll get your soul back soon, and then that horrible feeling will disappear, I'm sure...~
@650  = ~Whoa-whoa hold there, you're covered in blood!~
@651  = ~Oh, no, <GABBER>, you are almost dying, you must get some healing right now!~
@652  = ~Nay, it's... it's just a flesh wound...~
@653  = ~I'll do it *pant* as soon as I can...~
@654  = ~... help me... Imoen...~
@655  = ~Don't worry about me... I'll be fine...~
@656  = ~Mind your own... *cough*... your own business!~
@657  = ~Oh my, you're coughing up blood! I don't care what you say, I must have some potions around here... (Imoen rummages through her belongings.)~
@658  = ~<GABBER>! you need healing, I must have some potions around here somewhere...(Imoen rummages through her belongings.)~
@659  = ~A... a 'flesh wound', are you mad? You can barely stand!!~
@660  = ~I must have some potions around here...(Imoen rummages through her belongings.)~
@661  = ~Damn... we don't have any potions, we must find a cleric...~
@662  = ~Here it is... drink it, <GABBER>, you'll feel better...~
@663  = ~But hey, you don't look so good...! In fact you look *awful*...!~
@664  = ~You should have all those wounds healed, <GABBER>... I'm sure they can't feel pleasant...~
@665  = ~Yes, Imoen... *cough* I'll do it as soon as I can, don't worry.~
@666  = ~We can't... (swallow some blood) spare the time right now, Imoen... I'll be fine...~
@667  = ~Don't mind that, I've had worse wounds. *cough* I wanted to talk...~
@668  = ~Whatever.~
@669  = ~Imoen, shut up and march on... I can take care of myself...~
@670  = ~Huh? Is it blood you just coughed up...? you must have broken a rib or something...~
@671  = ~Priests can handle that pretty well nowadays, y'know...? Don't be so miserly; go and spend some coins on one, will ya?~
@672  = ~Hmm, maybe I've got a potion around here for you...~
@673  = ~Huh? Is that blood you're coughing up...? I won't talk to you until you heal yourself, <GABBER>... you must have broken a rib or something...~
@674  = ~Well, I *don't* agree with you. Hang on there, maybe I have a potion for ya around here...~
@675  = ~"Whatever"?? Don't be stupid; go and heal yourself, dammit!~
@676  = ~Oh, alright, alright, if you say so... let's see if you say that when you drop *dead* to the floor, moron!~
@677  = ~Hmpf... please don't be stupid, go and heal yourself...!~
@678  = ~Hmm... you okay? It seems you're having some trouble with all those wounds...~
@679  = ~Don't worry, Imoen. I'm fine, I wanted to talk to you...~
@680  = ~You're right, better if I get healed... but anyway, I wanted to tell you something...~
@681  = ~Very well, I'll get healed.~
@682  = ~No... I like pain... pain is good, pain is pleasure...!~
@683  = ~Agh, I hate you, leave me alone!!~
@684  = ~Uh-uh, (Imoen shakes her head and wags her index finger in front of your eyes) No way, not until you're well...~
@685  = ~Wait, maybe I have a potion here... (Imoen looks through the group's belongings.)~
@686  = ~Nope, no potion... you'll have to find a cleric.~
@687  = ~Good.~
@688  = ~(Imoen raises an eyebrow, looking at you with disgust) Very well... good for you...~
@689  = ~If you're enjoying it so much then you won't mind if I ignore you for awhile, right? Yeah I thought not...~
@690  = ~(To herself) acks, that was kinda sordid...~
@691  = ~(Imoen scowls, and arches one eyebrow) It was *you* who approached me, <CHARNAME>...!~
@692  = ~Hmpf... jerk...~
@693  = ~(Imoen gets a better look at you) Hey you're full of scratches, are you alright?~
@694  = ~Yes, don't mind that, all these wounds are superficial... I wanted to talk with you...~
@695  = ~It hurts a little, but I wanted to tell you something.~
@696  = ~I'm wounded, do you really think that I'm "alright"!?~
@697  = ~Hmm... better if I heal them, don't you think?~
@698  = ~I've told you not to ask me questions, Imoen!! Shut up!!!~
@699  = ~Oh, excuse me Mister "Can't-stand-a-few-scrapes"...! They look like nothing, don't whine so much...~
@700  = ~Oh, excuse me Miss "Can't-stand-a-few-scrapes"...! They look like nothing, don't whine so much...~
@701  = ~Yeah... they don't look very serious but you don’t want them to get infected, do you?.~
@702  = ~<CHARNAME>... look...~
@703  = ~It's... Khalid...~
@704  = ~(Without another word, Imoen leans over the half-elf's corpse... she looks at it expressionless, transfixed by the horrors Khalid's tortured body have called to her mind.)~
@705  = ~(She raises a hand, reaches out to touch it but then recoils in confusion as she realizes what she was about to do.)~
@706  = ~(She speaks to you still staring at his torn corpse) I... I saw what *he* did to Khalid...~
@707  = ~He showed me... he taught me... I... I don't know what he wanted with it but... I had to watch him as he probed Khalid's body with his knives...~
@708  = ~He'd cut and say 'see?'... he cut, and asked 'see, child?'... over and over... it was so horrible...~
@709  = ~(Imoen seems to come out of her trance, her gaze rising from Khalid's shattered carcass to your eyes.)~
@710  = ~I can't stand this... I can't stand it, let's get outta here...!~
@711  = ~(She looks at the remains of the half-elf one last time with a pained expression on her face.)~
@712  = ~Fare thee well, Khalid...~
@713  = ~Hey, dark skin...! Now this is a good tan, isn't it? Why do we need the sun when we have dragons...?~
@714  = ~Wow, hear my voice! I speak all drow-ish, tee-hee!~
@715  = ~But strangely I feel the urge to kill all other lowly races and praise Lolth for it...!~
@716  = ~And want a pet-spider too... (Imoen shrugs) must be side effects of the transformation, heheh!~
@717  = ~Hey "Veldrin", sath reshlaa ffruk'an dirr?~
@718  = ~(Reply in Drow tongue) Of course!~
@719  = ~Umm... what?~
@720  = ~(Reply in Drow tongue) No, I don't want a new whip, thanks...~
@721  = ~(Reply in Drow tongue) Imoen... that doesn't make any sense and you know it...~
@722  = ~(Reply in Drow tongue) I'd never do that without gloves...~
@723  = ~Shut your mouth already, Imoen!~
@724  = ~Meh, can't have some laughs even with this... you don't have any sense of humor...!~
@725  = ~Err... me neither... whatever you understood...~
@726  = ~Yeah, well, alright... whatever you understood...~
@727  = ~Teehehee I knew you wouldn't understand that...!~
@728  = ~What!? you'd put butter on your nipples?? Gee that isn't very hygienic...! So that's what you like to do when you're alone, huh?~
@729  = ~(Imoen rolls her eyes at your strange look) If you haven't figured it out yet, I'm making fun of you, <CHARNAME>!~
@730  = ~ ... putting butter on your nipples *is* hygienic (she chuckles.)~
@731  = ~And look, my breasts are bigger! Hmm... no, better if you *don't* look...~
@732  = ~Heheh, Aerie, didn't you say you hated the drow...?~
@733  = ~Oh, just... just don't remind me of it, please...~
@734  = ~Jaheira... you look kinda different...~
@735  = ~Did you change your hairstyle...? No, it's not that...~
@736  = ~*Very funny*, Imoen...~
@737  = ~Viconia! You look like a drow!! What happened??~
@738  = ~Oh, wait... you *already* were a drow, heh... but hey, you are different...! Don't want to be recognized, huh?~
@739  = ~(Viconia simply glares at Imoen.)~
@740  = ~Hmm... Mazzy, weren't you taller before...?~
@741  = ~You were definitely taller. This drow appearance makes you look shorter than you really are...~
@742  = ~Imoen... I will *make the effort* and try to take that as a compliment.~
@743  = ~(Viconia raises an eyebrow at that.)~
@744  = ~Hah...! Now that's a good question...~
@745  = ~Lemme ask you another, <CHARNAME>, sweetie...~
@746  = ~You haven't found your soul yet; you're dying slowly, descending to a darkening void of murder and blood...~
@747  = ~You are seeking some bastard that could be more powerful than Elminster and Khelben together, and his sister, who happens to be a vampiress with a stolen god-like soul (which is *mine* by the way...)~
@748  = ~You are clueless in the middle of *nowhere*, forced to endure test after test each harder than the one before while facing treachery and threats at every turn...~
@749  = ~... And the BIGGEST of your WORRIES is *why my voice changes when casting spells*!?~
@750  = ~Yeah, that's it...!~
@751  = ~Hmmm... when did we change roles? Shouldn't *I* be saying that and you asking me stupid questions?~
@752  = ~Now that you say it... it's quite a disturbing perspective to have on events...~
@753  = ~Well, no, I was just curious...! Why are you so grouchy all of sudden?~
@754  = ~You are right... it's hopeless, I'm lost, nothing matters at all... as Xan said, let us save our effort and just lie down and die...~
@755  = ~Had I known you'd be such a bitch about it, I'd have kept silent...~
@756  = ~(She stops to think for a moment) Hmm... you know, that was a bit bitchy indeed...~
@757  = ~It must be Jaheira's influence... but you are *so* inane and inexperienced, I had to tell you something!~
@758  = ~Oh... OH, no...! I've adopted her never ending bossing-around! What will I do now...!?~
@759  = ~Meh, will you never learn to appreciate a *joke*, Jaheira...? Blah, it's hopeless, don't know why I bother...~
@760  = ~It must be Jaheira's absence, heh... I miss someone bossing us around all the time...!~
@761  = ~Hahah, Xan! That cheerful, happy soul, I wonder where he might be... probably making apocalyptic prophecies somewhere... "Sit down and die, so sayeth the wise Xan!"~
@762  = ~Heheh, that Xan... he was such an optimistic guy...~
@763  = ~Ha! It could be worse. At least we have hair. I'm sure Irenicus would *die* for full head of hair...~
@764  = ~Well, maybe he has some under that strange outfit he wears...~
@765  = ~Whatever!~
@766  = ~'Stupid questions'? My questions are never stupid! They are full of *wisdom and insight*!! But actually...~
@767  = ~Oh... alrighty then, heh.~
@768  = ~But anyway, you asked me something, right...?~
@769  = ~Well, my voice changes because I have to *vocalize*! I have to spell everything correctly -- hey you noticed the double meaning? (She winks at you) -- otherwise, the casting could go wrong.~
@770  = ~And the magic *flows* through my voice to my hands and, and... y'know, that kind of stuff! That's why my voice is distorted...~
@771  = ~You should know about that, you use magic too...!~
@772  = ~Well, it's not surprising you would need to ask that, you've not been initiated into the arts... hmpf! Ignorant orc!~
@773  = ~(Imoen comically looks at you in a fair imitation of Edwin) But you, unevolved monkey, could never understand the ways of true power...~
@774  = ~(She smiles smugly.)~
@775  = ~Doing what? I can't help it, you know...~
@776  = ~So <CHARNAME>, could we continue on now that your curiosity has been satisfied, hmmmmmm?~
@777  = ~Certainly... there are times I just stop and wonder...~
@778  = ~Nope. I want to know why you have that tendency to disobey my commands and cast whatever spell you fancy.~
@779  = ~Don't use that tone with me again or you'll regret it.~
@780  = ~Haven't you ever wondered how the clouds smell?~
@781  = ~Haven't I told you that I love you, Imoen?~
@782  = ~Yes, Mistress. This servant shan't disturb your thoughts again.~
@783  = ~I just can't understand why we can't go on talking for hours...~
@784  = ~Where the zephyr blows, the storm is born.~
@785  = ~Yeah, yeah... I wasn't listening to you anymore, to tell the truth...~
@786  = ~I do *not* find that funny, Imoen... when will you reach maturity, girl?~
@787  = ~... are you trying to mock me, little girl?~
@788  = ~Uh, no, of course not master Edwin... please, don't unleash your wrath on this your humble servant...!~
@789  = ~Hmpf... that troglodyte you call '<CHARNAME>' should have left you rotting in Spellhold as I told <PRO_HIMHER>...!~
@790  = ~Oh, you are as lovely as always, Edwhiney... (Ignoring the mage's glare, she turns to you.)~
@791  = ~Or at least some fur like Boo's... whaddya think, Minsc?~
@792  = ~I don't think he has fur, Imoen... he isn't as lovely as Boo...~
@793  = ~We agree on that...~
@794  = ~Whaddya think, Nalia?~
@795  = ~Umm... think about what?~
@796  = ~Yeah, I agree... you're quite wise, you knew that, Nalia?~
@797  = ~I... guess... --are you alright, Imoen...?~
@798  = ~I'm sure Keldorn knows.~
@799  = ~Knows... what, my dear?~
@800  = ~Exactly! Oh you're so wise, Keldy...!~
@801  = ~Imoen, have you taken a blow to the head?~
@802  = ~Whaddya think of that, Annie?~
@803  = ~"Annie"? I wasn't aware of my new name... and I do not know what you are talking about, Imoen...~
@804  = ~Exactly! Oh you're so wise, Anomen...!~
@805  = ~I think you are too hyperactive today, Imoen... Should I cast a healing spell on you?~
@806  = ~The underdark...~
@807  = ~It smells... horrible...~
@808  = ~I hate drow...~
@809  = ~You got it, Aerie...~
@810  = ~The scent of my home has not changed in all these years.~
@811  = ~It is not pleasant to be here again.~
@812  = ~Perhaps you lose yourself in the end, but you will go to a greater reward than you can know. ~ [Dream412]
@813  = ~(Imoen frowns, bitterness in her voice) And why you think I care, jerk? I told you not to talk to me again after what you did...~
@814  = ~Imoen, please forgive me... I want to be your friend again, I am really sorry...~
@815  = ~Oh... alright...~
@816  = ~Meh, screw you, orc head.~
@817  = ~(She purses her lips, and huffs) Oh, fine, whatever... I don't like being upset with you anyway, but you better NOT do it again, understood?~
@818  = ~Alright... what was that dream about then...?~ [MRImRom5]
@819  = ~It took place in Candlekeep, as usual. I appeared before you inside the library, and you began talking to me... (Tell her what happened in the dream.)~
@820  = ~Well it really wasn't *you*. It seems my... um, 'instinct', or whatever, has chosen your body as its avatar...~
@821  = ~you appeared, told me the slayer is a nice guy, killed all my companions (included yourself) and it ended. Oh you also taught me to count up to five...~
@822  = ~I awoke in a bed in Calimshan. You were there, lying beside me, wearing nothing under the sheets but one of these thin, translucent silks... just when I was about to throw back the covers, the slayer appeared dressed in a swimsuit and invited us to... (tell her all about your "dream".)~
@823  = ~Hmm, better if I keep it to myself... no offense Imoen, but it is much too private to tell you about it...~
@824  = ~(Shout like mad) Meh, you are not worthy of my trust, I will never tell you!!~
@825  = ~Huh? How's that? Tell me, tell me...~ [MRImRom5]
@826  = ~Well it really wasn't *you*. It seems my... um, 'instinct', or whatever, has chosen your body as avatar...~
@827  = ~I awakened in a bed in Calimshan. You were there, lying beside me, wearing nothing under the sheets but one of these thin, translucent silks... just when I was about to throw back the covers, the slayer appeared dressed in a swimsuit and invited us to... (tell her all about your "dream".)~
@828  = ~Hmm, better if I keep it to myself... no offense but it is much too private to tell you about it...~
@829  = ~(Imoen is startled by your outburst and takes a step back from you.)~
@830  = ~Whoa you didn't have to be so... uptight about it...! Just say you won't tell me and that's all, goblin breath!~
@831  = ~(To herself) Meh, don't know why I still try to be this <PRO_MANWOMAN>'s friend... <PRO_HESHE> really knows how to be grateful to the people that care for <PRO_HIMHER>, hmpf...~
@832  = ~Oh... I guess it's alright... you sure about it? I know there are some things that are better if you get them off your chest...~
@833  = ~Don't worry about me, I'll be just fine... come, let's go on...~
@834  = ~Hmm... maybe you're right. Very well, I'll tell you...~
@835  = ~Didn't you hear me or what!? LEAVE ME ALONE, YOU STUPID GIRL!!~
@836  = ~(She shrugs, sighing) Your choice...~
@837  = ~Fine, speak then...~
@838  = ~Well it really wasn't *you* who appeared. It seems my... um, 'instinct', or whatever, has chosen your body as an avatar...~
@839  = ~(Shout like mad) Argh, NO! You are not worthy of my trust, I will never tell you!!~
@840  = ~... uh-huh... right... so you say that when I got naked and went into the pool, it was filled with sand instead of water...~
@841  = ~And then the slayer flew over me peeing some kind of green liquid that melted the sand to Ankheg milk...~
@842  = ~...<CHARNAME>... have you hit your head lately...?~
@843  = ~Are you well, d'you think you might have some problem with all of this...? It seems to be affecting you in quite a strange way. It's worrying me...!~
@844  = ~Hahahah, oh Imoen... I didn't think you were that naive. I thought you'd recognize a joke...!~
@845  = ~Yes, it's very disturbing... I hope I don't have such weird dreams anymore...~
@846  = ~don't know... I want some sweet meats.~
@847  = ~I SHALL RULE THE REALMS, YOU WON'T STAND IN MY WAY!!~
@848  = ~I'm fine. Let's go on.~
@849  = ~(Imoen frowns, the trace of a smile appearing in the corner of her lips) Oh, you were so serious about it...!~
@850  = ~Spending all this time with Aerie is dulling my senses I think...! Otherwise I'd have seen through all that nonsense right away!~
@851  = ~Well at least it's good to see you don't take things *so* seriously all the time, <CHARNAME>, heheh...~
@852  = ~It really doesn't make sense to dwell endlessly upon it, believe me...~
@853  = ~(She sighs) So alright... what was the *real* dream about?~
@854  = ~(Shout like mad) NEVER! You are not worthy of my trust, I will never tell you!!~
@855  = ~I hope that too...~
@856  = ~(To herself) No kiddin'...!~
@857  = ~ ... ~
@858  = ~(Imoen simply stares at you with her lips pursed. It's evident she already knows what your real problem is as she rolls her eyes...)~
@859  = ~We'd all like some sweet meats, <CHARNAME>... all of us....~
@860  = ~I hope you are leading us to Irenicus... it wouldn't surprise me if we all ended up in some sweet shop...~
@861  = ~(Imoen jumps back, startled by your outburst.)~
@862  = ~N-no, no, of course I won't...! Just calm down, no one is trying to stop you...! Calm down, that's it... good boy...~
@863  = ~(To herself) This guy is nuts. *He* should have stayed in Spellhold for good...~
@864  = ~N-no, no, of course I won't...! Just calm down, no one is trying to stop you...! Calm down, that's it... good girl...~
@865  = ~(To herself) This lass is nuts. *She* should have stayed in Spellhold for good...~
@866  = ~Whoa, now that was brief... it didn't make any sense at all!~
@867  = ~Let's try something else, you'll see, it's easy... what if you repeat it, slowly and with some *details*, <CHARNAME>? It'll surely help...~
@868  = ~Oh alright... It took place in Candlekeep, as usual... (Tell her calmly what happened in the dream.)~
@869  = ~That's not what is important; it really wasn't *you*. It seems my... um, 'instinct', or whatever, has chosen your body as an avatar...~
@870  = ~Hmm, perhaps it's better if I keep it to myself... no offense but it is much too personal to talk about...~
@871  = ~No, no, I have a better proposal: what if you *mind your own business* and stop being so nosy, Imoen!?~
@872  = ~Huh!? but it was *you* who wanted to tell me in the first place, you troll brain!~
@873  = ~Meh, that's better, now I'll learn to treat you in the way you deserve, JERK!~
@874  = ~Hah, and you can't figure out why? Apart from my *great* looks, I'm the only human on the realms that you'd obey blindly, heheheh... your instinct is a smart one (she winks at you.)~
@875  = ~But *anyway*, better if you tell me about the whole dream, hmm?~
@876  = ~you appeared, told me the slayer is a sensitive soul, killed all my companions (included you) and the dream ended. Oh you also taught me to count up to five...~
@877  = ~I'd prefer to keep that part to myself... no offense but it is way too private to talk about...~
@878  = ~NOARGH! You are not worthy of my trust, I will never tell you!!~
@879  = ~(Imoen listens to you as you tell her about the dream. When you are done, she looks at you with a thoughtful expression.)~
@880  = ~Wait, wait... so you say that... I explained how you could become the Slayer?~
@881  = ~Yes, that's it more or less.~
@882  = ~Well, you know, I don't think it really was *you* at all... It seems my... um, 'instinct', or whatever, has chosen your body as an avatar...~
@883  = ~Yeah... what do you think about it?~
@884  = ~Well you seemed more interested in killing people than anything else...~
@885  = ~Not at all. Weren't you listening or what??~
@886  = ~Yes, but I didn't listen to you at all. I just stared at the pretty colours...~
@887  = ~Hmmm...~
@888  = ~Hah, and you can't figure out why? Apart of the *great* looks, I'm the only human in the realms that you'd obey blindly, heheheh... your instinct is a smart one (she winks at you.)~
@889  = ~OH alright, enlighten me, <PRO_LADYLORD> <CHARNAME>!~
@890  = ~Uh, actually, I guess you were right...~
@891  = ~In the first place, it wasn't *you*, but some creation of my subconscious. And secondly, you tried to *convince* me to become the Slayer, not just explain to me how to become it...~
@892  = ~The dream was about *onions*, don't you see? ONIONS!!~
@893  = ~For what!? You are STUPID!!~
@894  = ~(Imoen looks at you strangely, but decides to reply.)~
@895  = ~Oh oh, excuse me, do you want me to write a detailed summary of your dream so we can check it point by point?~
@896  = ~Meh, it doesn't matter. But try to not be that much of a goblin cock, alright?~
@897  = ~(Imoen raises an eyebrow) ... um... what?~
@898  = ~YES! The slayer is big, right? Big and dark. But I don't want to become the Slayer, right? I want to be the opposite of it; and what's the opposite of something big and dark? Something *little* and *white*, right? So... what's little and white? a PEELED ONION! Haha!~
@899  = ~Of course: The Slayer is inside me, in my inner self. To reach it, I only have to explore myself, *layer by layer*... what else has layers...? ONIONS! Slayer, onion layer! You see?~
@900  = ~Uh, nothing, nothing... what do you think of these dreams, eh?~
@901  = ~Well... I like onions...~
@902  = ~Feh, you wouldn't understand, you are too stupid!!~
@903  = ~(She stares at you as the 'profound' conclusion you have reached begins to sink in...)~
@904  = ~... yep. You are right. You have opened my eyes, really...~
@905  = ~Let's... let's keep going, eh?~
@906  = ~(It seems she can't decide whether to laugh or cry at your remarks...)~
@907  = ~Yeah, well... that's lovely for you, keep up the good work, <CHARNAME>...~
@908  = ~These dreams you have are pretty weird. And they always manage to involve *me* in some way...~
@909  = ~Guess it's the way your 'Bhaal side' manifests in you. You keep it suppressed while conscious, but in the dream world 'it' has more freedom.~
@910  = ~But it seems that you are having a harder and harder time keeping it away... I mean, you turned into the Slayer earlier, when fighting Bodhi. And now you tell me you can turn into it at will. You're becoming more and more a part of that 'Bhaal side' within you...~
@911  = ~Not very appealing, huh? You don't have to tell me, it isn't funny, I know...~
@912  = ~At the very least indeed... but I wonder why my 'inner instinct' takes your appearance... it's kind of... creepy.~
@913  = ~I don't really know, Imoen. From the way you put it in the dream it doesn't look *that* bad...~
@914  = ~Imoen... have you been experiencing things like this too...?~
@915  = ~Why isn't it appealing? Isn't the power the slayer brings me appealing? Isn't the essence of a God... attractive?~
@916  = ~Speak for yourself. I intend to have all that power, and much more. And I will be able to control it.~
@917  = ~(Sigh) you are right, Imoen. Come, we've talked quite a lot already, we have things to do...~
@918  = ~Yeah, I guess...~
@919  = ~(Imoen looks at you gravely concerned. You can tell this topic is one of the few she won't joke about.)~
@920  = ~I didn't think you were that naive, <CHARNAME>. I truly know that you aren't...~
@921  = ~You won't be able to control it, it will swallow you. Can't you see what the last part of the dream means? Become the Slayer too many times... and you won't be *<CHARNAME>* any more...~
@922  = ~As the Slayer you will be immensely powerful, <CHARNAME>. But you will not be *you*. What good will all that power do you then?~
@923  = ~I can't stop you from following that path... the only thing that I can do is ask you... please... that you don't seek that end...~
@924  = ~Forget about the 'power', <CHARNAME>... If not for me... do it for yourself...~
@925  = ~(Imoen touches your arm affectionately with this plea in her eyes, and walks away from you.)~
@926  = ~No, no it isn't. (Imoen is completely serious now. You can tell this is one of the few topics that can worry her to the core.)~
@927  = ~Don't give in to that temptation. Didn't you understand what the last part of the dream means? Tread lightly with the Slayer, or you will pay for it with your life, <CHARNAME>.~
@928  = ~(She raises her hand, fingers extended, in front of your eyes) Five. Can you see? Five times. Each time you fall to the lure of the Slayer, (She folds her fingers in one by one) your basic nature will fade... and fade... and fade... (Her hand is closed) until you are consumed.~
@929  = ~You are no god, <CHARNAME>, bear that in mind. You have only a small portion of Bhaal's essence. Let the power overwhelm you completely... and you'll be no more than the beast.~
@930  = ~I can't stop you from following that path... the only thing that I can do is ask you that... please... don't seek that end...~
@931  = ~Forget about the 'power', <CHARNAME>, forget about what it might bring... If not for me... do it for yourself...~
@932  = ~Well... (She looks away warily.)~
@933  = ~Not like that... but...~
@934  = ~There are times when... I hear *things*. Things in my head... telling me about blood and murder and that kind of stuff...~
@935  = ~And they grow stronger, bit by bit... I have already awakened with this faint urge to kill something... *anything*... but it passes soon.~
@936  = ~It isn't pleasant I tell you...~
@937  = ~Oh no, Imoen... I am so sorry to hear that...~
@938  = ~I don't really know, Imoen. You made it seem in the dream as if it wasn't something *that* bad...~
@939  = ~I guess but... isn't the power the slayer brings me appealing? Isn't the essence of a God... attractive, even if it involves all that?~
@940  = ~Well, speak for yourself. You might not be used to it, but I intend to have all that power, and much more. And I will be able to control it.~
@941  = ~Hey, look, first of all, it's not *ME* who told you all that, alright? I have told you many things, but I know for sure I'd never tell you that.~
@942  = ~(Imoen's is completely serious. You can tell this topic is one of the few she won't joke about.)~
@943  = ~I don't care how I put it in your dream; becoming the Slayer can't be a good thing, in any way, shape or form. Didn't you understand the last part of the dream? Five times, <CHARNAME>. If you become that monster five times, you will be consumed by its power.~
@944  = ~So don't even consider that 'offer' your instinct is making you... I... I beg of you, <CHARNAME>.~
@945  = ~(Imoen places her hand on your arm with affection.)~
@946  = ~Forget about the 'power', <CHARNAME>, forget about what it might bring... If not for me... do it for yourself... alright?~
@947  = ~(Imoen looks at you with a friendly smile and a plea in her eyes, and then turns and walks away from you.)~
@948  = ~Well, I don't know. Since I'm a Child of Bhaal too and we have this 'common bond', I s'pose your instinct uses it on its own behalf...~
@949  = ~It can be a way of cheating you or something... but you hardly pay any attention to what I say, I hope it won't be any different with this dream version of myself...! (She winks at you.)~
@950  = ~I won't fall to the Slayer, of that I am completely sure. You don't have to worry about that, Imoen.~
@951  = ~I guess but... isn't the power the slayer brings me appealing? Isn't the essence of a God... attractive?~
@952  = ~Well, I might start now. I intend to have all that power, and much more. And I will be able to control it.~
@953  = ~Heh, it won't, Imoen... come, we've talked quite a lot already and we have things to do...~
@954  = ~Oh don't worry about me, I'll be fine!~
@955  = ~Start to worry when you find me running around screaming 'KILL, KILL!' dribbling and waving a sword about...~
@956  = ~Hmm... that last sentence should have stayed in my head, don't you think...?~
@957  = ~I wish it was that simple...~
@958  = ~(She places her hand on your arm affectionately. This is one of the few topics that worry Imoen enough for her to not to joke about it) Resist it... it may be difficult but... I know you can, <CHARNAME>...~
@959  = ~(With a smile, she walks away from you.)~
@960  = ~Hey!~
@961  = ~See? I was *joking*, Aerie!~
@962  = ~I know, Imoen... I just wanted to have my share too (She giggles.)~
@963  = ~(Imoen smiles at her and turns back to you.)~
@964  = ~My sincerest greetings. You have such a sweet, innocent face, yet I detect the blooming femininity of a girl no longer. Please, allow me to taste of your fruits of adulthood.~
@965  = ~Oh, wow, this is so great. I had a vision that we would meet, and here you are!~
@966  = ~Why? We are having such a good conversation...~
@967  = ~Then let us defy the fates no longer! Salvanas will worship at your feet, soothe your aches and delicate scars with tender kisses, and caress every bit of you with precision and accuracy!~
@968  = ~Yeah, as I was saying, I had this vision that I would meet this really horny elf today, right?~
@969  = ~So I told my boyfriend Drongo the Skull Crusher--he's a pit fighter from Beregost--all about it.~
@970  = ~Drongo and I haven't been getting along so good lately, but you know what he said? He said that if anybody so much as laid eyes on me, he would bite their ears off! Isn't that sweet?~
@971  = ~Oh, my lovely, you fear what is to come, that is why you tell such pretty lies! Come, let Salvanas make you forget all your inhibitions.~
@972  = ~I don't know...Drongo seemed really serious. And you've got those juicy, pointy ears, and I really wouldn't trust the bartender in this joint to sew them back on, you know what I'm saying?~
@973  = ~Why...why, I wasn't talking to you, I was talking to her, over there! Excuse me.~
@974  = ~(The flirtatious elf simply goes completely pale in matter of milliseconds. Without uttering a single word, he falls unconscious to the ground.)~
@975  = ~Ahh my precious, you do not have to invent such lies... come, let Salvanas ease your-~
@976  = ~Urgh, just go away already, you foul mongrel!!~
@977  = ~But my sweet cher-~
@978  = ~HEY, didn't I tell you to BUGGER OFF?? Piss off before I fry you, asshole!!~
@979  = ~(The elf goes pale when he understands Imoen is *very* serious.)~
@980  = ~Um... right, ah, I think that lady... over there... is calling me. If you'll excuse me...~
@981  = ~So I told my Girlfriend Morsa the Skull Crusher--she's a pit fighter from Beregost--all about it.~
@982  = ~Morsa and I haven't been getting along so good lately, but you know what she said? She said that if anybody so much as laid eyes on me, she would bite their ears off! Isn't that sweet?~
@983  = ~No kiddin', here, meet him... Drongo, this is Salvanas, the horny elf I told you about... Salvanas, this is Drongo.~
@984  = ~Oh, did I mention he's a Son of Bhaal? he's killed so many people in the last few months... I'm proud of him.~
@985  = ~Hahah, hey Drongo, tell Salvanas what you did to that guy that touched me accidentally back in Beregost, it was really funny!~
@986  = ~Hahah! I took his head in my hand and squeezed and squeezed until it burst, hahahah!~
@987  = ~Hahah, I took his own hand and pushed it inside his mouth until he had swallowed it up to his elbow! A shame he died before I pulled it out... I didn't get to hear him scream!~
@988  = ~I... umm... I tore one of his arms off and... ah... introduced it inside his anus! He screamed like a baby until he died...~
@989  = ~I killed him, naturally.~
@990  = ~(Mock her) I actually asked him kindly not to do it again, because you were my lover.~
@991  = ~I don't know what you're talking about, Imoen... and my name is <CHARNAME>, not Drongo... ~
@992  = ~No kiddin', here, meet her... Morsa, this is Salvanas, the horny elf I told you about... Salvanas, this is Morsa.~
@993  = ~Oh, did I mention she's a Child of Bhaal? She's killed so many people the last few months... I'm really proud of her.~
@994  = ~Hahah, hey Morsa, tell Salvanas what you did to that guy that touched my butt accidentally back in Beregost. We did laugh!~
@995  = ~I... umm... I tore one of his arms off and... ah... introduced it inside his anus! He screamed like a baby until he died...~
@996  = ~I don't know what you're talking about, Imoen... and my name is <CHARNAME>, not Morsa... ~
@997  = ~Heheh, what you think of that, Salvanas?~
@998  = ~(Imoen slaps her forehead and shakes her head.)~
@999  = ~Oops, I think we went way too far with poor Salvanas...~
@1000 = ~(Imoen simply shrugs, turns around and kisses you, leaving the elf there...)~
@1001 = ~C'mon, he'll wake up sooner or later...~
@1002 = ~But you could have been a little less explicit, y'know...?~
@1003 = ~Eeeww, now that was *disgusting*... Only *you* could think of something like that... I had a hard time trying not to look surprised...!~
@1004 = ~You don't have much imagination, anyway... you could have thought of something more graphic, hmm?  Like don't know, "I kicked his groin so hard that I could see his balls when I cut his throat open" or something like that...~
@1005 = ~Ugh...(Imoen turns to you, glaring furiously.)~
@1006 = ~Now you think that was really funny, don't you?~
@1007 = ~Hmpf... I'm not letting you take part in any of my games anymore...~
@1008 = ~(she looks at you mischievously) In *any* of them, you understand...? You'll learn not to do something like that to me again, heheh...~
@1009 = ~Hmpf, you couldn't just play along, huh?~
@1010 = ~C'mon, let's get outta here...~
@1011 = ~Hey <CHARNAME>, you never get tired or what?~
@1012 = ~Don't know about you, but I don't find it very comfortable having to yawn when I'm crushing some monster's head...!~
@1013 = ~Hmm... I guess we could spare some hours to rest...~
@1014 = ~I know you're tired Imoen; it's only that I'm trying to find the proper place for you to rest your pretty little head.~
@1015 = ~Me neither, but we just can't rest right now.~
@1016 = ~I don't need to rest, I never get tired, I'm a killing machine with no feelings at all!! (Wield some huge imaginary sword from left to right.)~
@1017 = ~Well if you can't keep up to my pace you're nothing but a burden to me. Make an effort, or get lost.~
@1018 = ~Imoen... shut up.~
@1019 = ~(Imoen raises an eyebrow) ... yeah, right, okay...~
@1020 = ~You've been sniffing fairy dust again, huh? You should really try to give that up, it can't do you any good in the long run... Well, it plainly *can't be good*.~
@1021 = ~(Man, <PRO_HESHE>'s nuts! Not at all surprising that <PRO_HESHE> got into Spellhold.. They should have taken *<PRO_HIMHER>* and not me in the first place...!)~
@1022 = ~Yeah you guessed right... so now *do* it!~
@1023 = ~Oh, Alright.~
@1024 = ~(Chuckle sardonically) Yes, m'lady, at your command, m'lady...~
@1025 = ~Oh, fine, fine, whatever you want...! I don't remember you being such a harpy...~
@1026 = ~I don't like your tone.~
@1027 = ~Hah, that's the way I like you, docile and compliant, hehehe... (She winks at you.)~
@1028 = ~Well you sure don't remember me *this* tired either, heh... so just do what I say! (She winks at you.)~
@1029 = ~(Imoen purses her lips and rolls her eyes.) You're not the smartest <PRO_MANWOMAN> in Amn, can't you see I'm joking? Sheesh, you're a picky one...~
@1030 = ~Then find somewhere before I have to kick your sorry butt... well I'm too tired to even do that, but I can whine and whine and *whine* until we stop, heh...~
@1031 = ~(Chuckle sardonically) Yes, mistress, at your command...~
@1032 = ~Oh, fine, fine, whatever you want...! I don't remember you being that bossy...~
@1033 = ~Well *you* say that...~
@1034 = ~So c'mon, whatcha waitin' for? Let's find somewhere to rest... I could fall asleep just about *anywhere* right now...!~
@1035 = ~Oh, fine, fine, as you wish...! I don't remember you being such a nag...~
@1036 = ~Yoinks!~
@1037 = ~NARF!~
@1038 = ~(Leave her alone.)~
@1039 = ~(She frowns at your attitude) Just what's your problem, <CHARNAME>!? You got fleas in your pantaloons or what??~
@1040 = ~Ugh... it's surprising how much of a kobold's arse some people can be at times...~
@1041 = ~(She rolls her eyes) I love your social skills, <CHARNAME>...~
@1042 = ~(Imoen opens her mouth *really* wide as a huge yawn escapes her.)~
@1043 = ~<CHARNAME>, if we don't stop soon I think I'll fall asleep where I'm standing...~
@1044 = ~As someone said some time ago, *how long do you intend to crack your whip on my back*??~
@1045 = ~Oh alright, let's rest, *again*...~
@1046 = ~We'll rest soon enough, don't worry...~
@1047 = ~As long as it is required, Imoen...~
@1048 = ~Don't whine that much and just walk, dammit!~
@1049 = ~(Your words are answered by another impossibly huge yawn.)~
@1050 = ~(Imoen simply smiles at the drow, who receives this grin with a snort, which is answered by Imoen with another nearly inhuman yawn...)~
@1051 = ~Hmpf. Most amusing, girl.~
@1052 = ~... didn't you hear me or what...? I'm so sleepy...~
@1053 = ~Just imagine it... wouldn't you like to sit comfortably somewhere and just close your eyes...? Simply relax, and forget about daily  battles for a while... only you and your thoughts as... all fades to nothing while... while you fall into a most pleasant reverie... and then dream about... a perfect little paradise... while lying on some fresh turf... and... and...~
@1054 = ~And... ... ...~
@1055 = ~(Imoen's voice has faded gradually to silence, her eyes closing bit by bit, until they are shut.)~
@1056 = ~(It would seem that she has quite literally fallen to sleep on her feet... not *completely* asleep, but almost.)~
@1057 = ~Um... Imoen?~
@1058 = ~Alright, you win... everyone, let's camp here...~
@1059 = ~Alright, you win... we'll sleep here...~
@1060 = ~Imoen! Wake up and get moving, we really don't have time for this!~
@1061 = ~(Gently pat her cheek to wake her up.)~
@1062 = ~(Slap her *sharply* so she'll learn.)~
@1063 = ~(Her eyes open slightly and she looks at you behind a veil of drowsiness) Uh... huh...?~
@1064 = ~Oh, I'm so tired... let's rest soon, eh? or would you prefer to carry me on your back...? I wouldn't mind that at all, heh...~
@1065 = ~(You help Imoen walk to your chosen campsite, and prepare her bedding yourself...)~
@1066 = ~(You hit Imoen in the face with all your strength. Your assault takes her completely by surprise as she was almost asleep. Moaning, she falls to the ground.)~
@1067 = ~(Imoen coughs, spitting some blood to the ground. She looks up to stare at you confusedly, outraged.)~
@1068 = ~WHAT the...? Why--why did you do that!?~
@1069 = ~(Lie)I... I don't know Imoen... something... something inside my head told me to do it... Oh I'm so sorry, I... I didn't want to hurt you, I really didn't...! But the urge was overpowering...~
@1070 = ~(Coldly stare at her) If you are not able to keep up, I don't want you with me.~
@1071 = ~Because you are weak, you are pathetic, and you deserve it!! (Start to kick her now that she's defenseless on the ground.)~
@1072 = ~WELL, you did!! (She spits out some more blood and stands up. Her cheek is already bruised, and she is having difficulty to speaking.)~
@1073 = ~... Look, <CHARNAME>... I know what lurks within you... and I know it's difficult to ignore it...~
@1074 = ~I will help you fight it. I'm your friend, after all... but don't be surprised if from now on I'm wary of you...~
@1075 = ~I'll help you as I said, but... keep your distance just the same.~
@1076 = ~(Imoen wipes some blood from the corner of her mouth with her index finger, shakes her head, and turns away from you, muttering under her breath.)~
@1077 = ~WHAT!? Are you MAD?? Didn't you have another way of letting me know that, you stupid, paranoid, goat-fucking bastard!?~
@1078 = ~(She spits some more blood and stands up) Don't worry, I won't slow you down anymore, you mindless cretin! I'm outta here!~
@1079 = ~(Imoen stalks off without a backward glance; just what you deserve.)~
@1080 = ~(Normally Imoen would have been quick enough to dodge your blow, but she's so tired that her muscles don't fully obey her. Your sudden attack of madness finds a nearly helpless victim.)~
@1081 = ~(Your first kick connects with her stomach, flipping her onto her back. Despite her efforts to curl into a ball the next ones land in  her face and chest.)~
@1082 = ~(Your boot is already covered with her blood, but you strike out yet again. This time though, the blow is halted by an unseen force.)~
@1083 = ~(Somehow Imoen is standing before you. Blood runs down her face and a look of pure hatred is smoldering in her eyes.)~
@1084 = ~(And now you notice that something burns inside of her, controlling her from within. Her eyes glow with abyssal flames as she rises slowly into the air. She's not Imoen anymore.)~
@1085 = ~(She has become something else. Something very powerful.)~
@1086 = ~(Her howling voice, the tremor of many voices joined as one, impacts you like a hurricane. Screams of torture and madness overcome you.)~
@1087 = ~Die, <PRO_BROTHERSISTER>.~
@1088 = ~(The last sound you hear as your ears drums shatter is the demented wail of a thousand banshees.)~
@1089 = ~The last image, two hollow eyes mercilessly rejoicing in your death.)~
@1090 = ~*I* think we can rest right here.~
@1091 = ~Whatcha think, Nalia?~
@1092 = ~A little rest won't harm anyone, heh...~
@1093 = ~Aerie?~
@1094 = ~Um, alright... I--I guess...~
@1095 = ~See? And Keldorn, don't you agree too?~
@1096 = ~This old body always greets rest. However, this may not be the best moment to stop, my dear.~
@1097 = ~Ahn...!~
@1098 = ~WHAT ARE YOU DOING??~
@1099 = ~<CHARNAME>, are you crazy or what!?~
@1100 = ~Ye be one bloody bastard, <PRO_RACE>!~
@1101 = ~Imoen! (Keldorn turns to you) I can't find a reason for such brutality, <CHARNAME>.~
@1102 = ~Why in the *hell* did you do that, <CHARNAME>!?~
@1103 = ~Huh? why you say that? Meh, alright, alright, I'll talk more often...~
@1104 = ~Let's go...~
@1105 = ~I am the one who should be tired, Bodhi... chasing you and your foul brother around isn't the most pleasant way for me to spend my time.~
@1106 = ~Well, your... 'chase', as you call it, will end here, <CHARNAME>. I am tired of playing with you.~
@1107 = ~And as for you, my dear, broken, empty Imoen...~
@1108 = ~I can see through your hollow carcass, child... I know of the doubts that torment you. I wonder...~
@1109 = ~How much simpler would things be for you if I killed <CHARNAME> right now?~
@1110 = ~You said it, Imoen. (Bodhi leans forward, as if she is about to attack. Her dark eyes shine with hunger as an expression of pure blood lust overwhelms the vampire's face.)~
@1111 = ~You have come to retrieve what you think is yours... your power has grown stronger, even without your soul. I warn you; desist now, foolish girl.~
@1112 = ~Know that you would not stand a chance against me. But I wonder...~
@1113 = ~How far would you go, without the help of your companions...~
@1114 = ~I wonder, how far you would go if I killed <CHARNAME> right now?~
@1115 = ~I know how much you appreciate your dear <PRO_BROTHERSISTER> <CHARNAME>... <PRO_HESHE> has turned into your main reason to live, isn't <PRO_HESHE>? How touching...~
@1116 = ~I wonder... how much more suffering can your young heart stand without breaking...~
@1117 = ~I wonder, how long you would live if I killed <CHARNAME> right now?~
@1118 = ~I had considered turning you into a vampire, little Imoen. One whom would blindly follow my orders. But then...~
@1119 = ~Why would I want your body... (she tilts her head to the left, showing Imoen her sharp teeth as she smiles wickedly at her.)~
@1120 = ~... when I have your soul...?~
@1121 = ~(Bodhi turns to you, ignoring Imoen now.)~
@1122 = ~(Imoen is panic stricken by the very thought of it.)~
@1123 = ~You... y-you won't touch a single hair on <CHARNAME>'s head while I still have a drop of blood in the veins of my 'empty carcass', Bodhi!!~
@1124 = ~(Imoen scowls, staring at Bodhi. If there has been any moment in her young life in which she has felt pure hatred for someone, it surely is this instant.)~
@1125 = ~(She spits her words through clenched teeth.)~
@1126 = ~I'll have my soul back, or die in the attempt, vampire. And you won't harm anyone in this party while I still have a drop of blood in my veins!~
@1127 = ~I...~
@1128 = ~My main reason to live is to drive a stake through your black heart, Bodhi! And you won't touch a single hair on <CHARNAME>'s head while I still have a drop of blood in my veins!!~
@1129 = ~Whew...~
@1130 = ~For a moment there I thought she was going to take me with her or something...!~
@1131 = ~Glad she didn't... I doubt you'd make it to her if I'm not around to help you, <CHARNAME>...! (She smiles smugly in your direction.)~
@1132 = ~C'mon, let's kick some undead butts.~
@1133 = ~I thought that too...~
@1134 = ~Yes, it seemed likely to happen...~
@1135 = ~I also thought that she'd take you by surprise, Imoen.~
@1136 = ~I saw you in her claws already...~
@1137 = ~I knew she wouldn't.~
@1138 = ~Rather unexpected, I would say.~
@1139 = ~I am surprised she didn't take you with her, blackbird... I feared she would.~
@1140 = ~Oh I'm so glad she didn't take you! I thought she'd attack you...~
@1141 = ~Yes, yes, that is what everyone thought...!~
@1142 = ~I feared we had lost you already, Imoen.~
@1143 = ~Aye, ye were gone fer sure!~
@1144 = ~Thank Arvoreen... I thought that foul creature would attack you, Imoen!~
@1145 = ~Me too...~
@1146 = ~Who is Imoen? (She stares into space, her blank gaze passing over you once and again without seeing you at all.)~ [MRImNig2]
@1147 = ~Imoen! It's <CHARNAME>! I'm here for you!~
@1148 = ~Imoen...? Are you alright...?~
@1149 = ~What have you done to her! She is a mere shadow of herself!~
@1150 = ~Imoen? And why should I care for her? I'm looking for the mage, where is he!?~
@1151 = ~Oh, Imoen... what has he done to you...? (Try to embrace her.)~
@1152 = ~... your voice sounds familiar to me, *mage*...~
@1153 = ~'fortunate'!? She's... she's TORN already! What has happened to her!?~
@1154 = ~Im... o... en...? Who is... Imoen...?~
@1155 = ~Empty...~
@1156 = ~Empty...! She's empty, she's nothing! STAND BACK!!~
@1157 = ~I don't know that name. I don't know that name!! She's not here!!~
@1158 = ~NO! Stay away!! Stay away from me!! (She covers her head with her arms and squats down. Rocking back and forth, she repeats the same phrase like a horrid mantra.)~
@1159 = ~Ah, but you are not far from him, <CHARNAME>.~
@1160 = ~My companion, Imoen.~
@1161 = ~My sist-- uh, I mean my dearest love, Imoen!~
@1162 = ~Sheesh that Phaere is *hot*! I heard her screams from my room ya know? Well and yours too! (She can't help but giggle.)~
@1163 = ~Heheh... So "Veldrin" (Imoen smirks mischievously, teasing you) what was it like to lose your virginity?~
@1164 = ~WHAT?? How did you know I was...?~
@1165 = ~huh? I wasn't a virgin...~
@1166 = ~Imoen! What kind of question is that? Don't you have any... any respect for *private matters*?~
@1167 = ~It was the most incredible experience of my life. My first time, and with a drow, an expert of the erotic arts! You know, she did me all kinds of...-~
@1168 = ~I won't answer such a question, Imoen.~
@1169 = ~Imoen, it's hard enough tolerating your incessant chattering; I won't tolerate that kind of question too.~
@1170 = ~Oh, oh, excuse me Mister "There-I-go-again!" ...~
@1171 = ~(In spite of your scolding, Imoen can no longer suppress her mirth.)~
@1172 = ~H-hey, hey get a grip there, I was just teasing. I don't really want to know the sordid details!~
@1173 = ~(Looking at you, Imoen can no longer hold back her laughter.)~
@1174 = ~Hah, you had no respect for *my* privacy with all your "Oh-oh don't stop!" and "Oh-oh take that!" all through the night, did you?~
@1175 = ~So just tell, dammit!~
@1176 = ~Umm... how did you know I was...?~
@1177 = ~But Imoen, I wasn't a virgin...!~
@1178 = ~I won't answer such questions, Imoen.~
@1179 = ~Imoen, it's hard to tolerate your incessant chattering; I won't tolerate that kind of questions too.~
@1180 = ~Hah! Now *that's* a surprise... you haven't had any girlfriend in all the time I've been with ya... and that makes... umm... don't know... all of your life??~
@1181 = ~So tell me, when EXACTLY between leaving Irenicus' place and rescuing me from Spellhold did you do *that*?~
@1182 = ~Oh alright, I was a virgin! just how did you know it??~
@1183 = ~Don't know, some whore around the docks. I simply had to, you know? I was beginning to have some problems with the-~
@1184 = ~Well... you see, Aerie and I... y'know... we had our "private" time...~
@1185 = ~Well, *ahem* Jaheira and I... well, we... *ahem*~
@1186 = ~ Viconia and I have lain together on several occasions...~
@1187 = ~(Imoen looks towards Aerie, her eyes wide with surprise)... *really*??~
@1188 = ~Wow... you didn't waste any time at all, eh? (She titters, most amused by your blush.)~
@1189 = ~(Looking at you, Imoen can no longer suppress her laughter.)~
@1190 = ~(Imoen looks towards Jaheira, her eyes wide with surprise)... *really*??~
@1191 = ~(Imoen looks towards Viconia, her eyes wide with surprise)... *really*??~
@1192 = ~Doh! I told you already, I've been with you all of your life!~
@1193 = ~(Looking at you, Imoen can no longer suppress her laughter.)~
@1194 = ~Oh, ar'ya kiddin'?? I've been with ya since all of this started, and that would be... umm... don't know, ALL YOUR LIFE??~
@1195 = ~I think I'd know of something like that...!~
@1196 = ~Oh <CHARNAME>, you're a randy one... couldn't you at least hold back your moans a little? I had a hard time sleeping back there...~
@1197 = ~Oops... I guess 'hold back' isn't a very appropriate expression right now, hehehee!~
@1198 = ~Heheheh, you didn't stay in there very long... what, weren't you desirable enough for a slut like Phaere?~
@1199 = ~Not surprising... given you're virgin and all...!~
@1200 = ~WHAT?? How did you... know I am...?~
@1201 = ~Huh? I'm not a virgin...~
@1202 = ~Imoen! What kind of comment is that? Don't you have any... any respect for *private matters*?~
@1203 = ~Hmpf...! Let me be, Imoen...~
@1204 = ~Imoen, you're making it even harder to tolerate your incessant chattering...~
@1205 = ~Hahah, sure, sure, I'm sorry...~
@1206 = ~(Looking at you, Imoen can't hold back her laughs, although she really tries... a little...)~
@1207 = ~So tell me, when EXACTLY between leaving Irenicus' place and rescuing me from Spellhold did you manage to lose your precious virginity?~
@1208 = ~Oh alright, I'm virgin! just how did you know it??~
@1209 = ~Don't know, some whore in Athkatla. I simply had to, you know? I was beginning to have some problems with the-~
@1210 = ~ Viconia and I have lain together...~
@1211 = ~I won't answer such question, Imoen.~
@1212 = ~Doh! I told you already, I've been with you all my life!~
@1213 = ~Pffft! Don't mind me then, Mister "I'm-too-scared-about-my-sexuality-to-talk"!~
@1214 = ~Hmm... that makes a nice nickname, heheh...~
@1215 = ~YES, YES, MWHAHAHAHAAAAAH!!!~
@1216 = ~It's such a shame for you, heheh... I mean, missing the chance to be 'initiated' by a drow! That opportunity won't turn up again anytime soon, y'know...?~
@1217 = ~Meh, anyway, we should be doing something else, shouldn't we?~
@1218 = ~Hahahah, she'd have *killed* you for sure if you had spent the night making love to that drow, while she waited for you here...!~
@1219 = ~No need to wonder why you didn't let Phaere lay her hands on you... (She laughs briefly once more.)~
@1220 = ~(Aerie looks away, not able to stand your gaze as she utters her reply) Y-yeah... that's-- that's right, Imoen...~
@1221 = ~(Jaheira glares at you) I... *ahem!* I do not think that is any of Imoen's business, *Veldrin*...!~
@1222 = ~Yes girl, I am ashamed to say that it is true. I have sullied myself with this phlithus jaluk.~
@1223 = ~I'm sorry, <CHARNAME>, I was just so worried...~ [MRImRom1]
@1224 = ~Oh Imoen... I thought I had lost you forever... I missed you so much! Are you alright? Did he... torture you again?~
@1225 = ~Are you hurt? What did he do to you?~
@1226 = ~Are you *my* Imoen again...? You know who I am now, right...?~
@1227 = ~Yes, it was most unpleasant. But we are reunited and all is well again.~
@1228 = ~We survived, but not unscathed. I must know what he did to me... and you.~
@1229 = ~Yes, yes, I was there. Let's just get back to that room and finish him.~
@1230 = ~Oh, here we go again... will I have to listen to your horrible whining everywhere I go? Why didn't you just die??~
@1231 = ~I... (an involuntary shudder racks her body, as if you have reminded her of very unpleasant experiences) I don't know, really. Same thing he did to you, I guess... since we're... the same?~
@1232 = ~I... (an involuntary shudder racks her body, as if she has suddenly remembered very unpleasant experiences) I wish it were so... but it really isn't, is it? Everything's changed now... now that we're the... same?~
@1233 = ~B-back to... Irenicus? (an involuntary shudder racks her body, as if she has remembered all of sudden very unpleasant experiences) I, ah, I guess... if we can stand up to him. We're both pretty weak after what he did... to us both.~
@1234 = ~<CHARNAME>, he made me see what you are and... what I am... or rather, was... and then he tore it from me.~
@1235 = ~I don't know who I am now, <CHARNAME>... what he did to me... (Imoen pauses briefly, staring blankly into empty space) I feel hollow inside... I can't get rid of the pain... the horrible pain...~
@1236 = ~He took something vital from me... and from you. Our divine souls... I just find out I'm a child of a god, and then its essence is ripped from my body. Now I am empty and dying. And you are too...~
@1237 = ~We'll survive by helping each other, like you helped me in the dream during the ritual.~
@1238 = ~I am strong, and I will not waste away. I survived the fight in the dream, didn't I?~
@1239 = ~Imoen, we'll survive just fine. You'll learn to cope just as I have. It's not so bad.~
@1240 = ~Then give up and die. He has stolen from me too but I will fight on. I must.~
@1241 = ~The things he showed me... (She interrupts herself, memories overwhelming her) they were so black and horrid... the feelings he evoked in me were even worse... it was too much for me to stand... too much... Now life is just anticipation of the death to come...~
@1242 = ~... dream? <CHARNAME>, I had no dream during my ritual... it was an unbearable nightmare, but I had no dreams at all.~
@1243 = ~I'm sorry, the things he showed me... (She interrupts herself, memories overwhelming her) they were so black and horrid... the feelings he evoked in me were even worse... it was too much for me to stand... too much... Now life is just anticipation of the death to come...~
@1244 = ~I am bleak, I know, but I was all alone here for so long... when I wasn't being tortured I was overwhelmed by the silence in my cell, strange things whispering inside my head...~
@1245 = ~Has this affected you differently than me? You have been dealing with the Bhaal essence longer... perhaps you are more focused...~
@1246 = ~Or perhaps it is more focused upon you.~
@1247 = ~I don't know. Regardless, we have to get back what Irenicus took from us. ~
@1248 = ~What do you mean?~
@1249 = ~We have no time for a philosophical debate. It can wait until after Irenicus has paid.~
@1250 = ~There was a malevolent taint in my first dreams. Is there a will behind it, I wonder?~
@1251 = ~I have been getting much weaker, <CHARNAME>... I don't know how much time has passed since *he* ripped my soul out of my body but... I feel not only my strength, but also my will fading away with every minute that goes by...~
@1252 = ~I hope we will meet again, <CHARNAME>. I guess we're sort of... siblings...~
@1253 = ~(Imoen looks at you with a question in her eyes) Why... why d'you say that...? I'm Imoen, you're <CHARNAME>, like always...~
@1254 = ~When I found you, you were a mere shadow of yourself. You didn't recognize me at all.~
@1255 = ~I'm so glad to hear that... I thought I had lost you forever... I missed you so much! Are you alright? Did he... torture you again??~
@1256 = ~Oh, I was so worried... but we are reunited and all is well again.~
@1257 = ~Good. We survived, but not unscathed. I must know what he did to me... and you.~
@1258 = ~Very well then! Let's just get back to that room and finish him.~
@1259 = ~I... I don't remember that at all... it's been like... waking up from a nightmare to fall into a bad dream...~
@1260 = ~At least you're with me in this one...~
@1261 = ~Oh Imoen... I thought I had lost you forever... I missed you so much! So did he... torture you again??~
@1262 = ~Yes. At least we are reunited and all is well again.~
@1263 = ~You are right; we survived, but not unscathed. I must know what he did to me... and you.~
@1264 = ~Then let's just get back to that room and finish him.~
@1265 = ~Only darkness... and agony... and my will draining away as... as...~
@1266 = ~(Imoen's gaze raises from the ground to your eyes.)~
@1267 = ~It still hurts...~
@1268 = ~I have not dealt with this for as long as you. It's not pleasant...~
@1269 = ~So are you. I've had a damnable time with you in my first dreams, especially in that last ritual.~
@1270 = ~And yet you seemed so sure of yourself when you helped in my dream.~
@1271 = ~(Imoen's wounded expression would pierce any heart in any chest of any creature of any plane, except your cold one.)~
@1272 = ~I... I was just... (It's too much for her. After all she's been through, you have cruelly crushed her hopes, striking a final blow to her emotions.)~
@1273 = ~I thought... I...! (She turns away in tears and runs into the darkness of Spellhold. Alone and hopeless, a horrible death surely awaits her.)~
@1274 = ~(You merely stare as she disappears into the eternal night of Spellhold.)~
@1275 = ~... "first dreams"...? whatcha mean by that?~
@1276 = ~(Definitely this is not the best moment to talk about it. You will talk about it later.) Oh, don't mind that. As I said, in my dreams there was always some sort of 'taint' present...~
@1277 = ~(Imoen looks at you strangely. She also seems relieved to move on to another topic.)~
@1278 = ~I... don't worry about me... are *you* well...?~
@1279 = ~That's not important! Imoen, are you hurt? What did he do to you?~
@1280 = ~Well, it was most unpleasant. Now we are reunited and all is well again.~
@1281 = ~Yes, yes, whatever. Let's just get back to that room and finish him.~
@1282 = ~Why would you be so concerned over a prattling and addled girl?~
@1283 = ~Annoying or not, she's the little sister I never had, and I love her like one. I miss her presence.~
@1284 = ~Well, she has been my closest friend since childhood and a loyal companion.~
@1285 = ~That 'Prattling and addled girl' as you call her means much more to me than you can imagine, Viconia.~
@1286 = ~Oh, how intriguing. If I didn't know better it would seem that there is an unsavory attraction between you two.~
@1287 = ~(Look away and remain silent.)~
@1288 = ~(Narrow your eyes) She's my friend, Viconia. But I guess that word means nothing to you.~
@1289 = ~why?~
@1290 = ~Imoen has been there for me for as long as I can remember. I simply can't imagine a life without her, and just to think about what she might be suffering makes me ache... inside...~
@1291 = ~I don't think you'd understand, Viconia. It's a matter of bonds and inner feelings, things you aren't very familiar with.~
@1292 = ~That's none of your business.~
@1293 = ~Your questions tire me, drow. Go torture a rat or something.~
@1294 = ~A rat like *you* would deserve it, ugur fuer'yon. Watch your tongue. Never again will I tolerate again such words from a lowly being like you.~
@1295 = ~Hmm... I was just teasing, but it seems I have touched a sensitive nerve, <CHARNAME>? How... sweet (She snorts at you.)~
@1296 = ~Her name is Imoen... we've been together all our lives, she is very special to me. I must rescue her.~
@1297 = ~Then let our wings be spread so we can fly to where she is being held and break her imprisonment once and for all, my friend!~
@1298 = ~<CHARNAME>... (Keldorn slowly alternates his gaze between you and Imoen. An unfathomable expression masks his face and you cannot begin to guess his thoughts.)~
@1299 = ~I thought you told me Imoen was nothing more than your childhood friend, and now we have discovered she is truly your 'sister', even though I do not consider that being Bhaalspawns implies that you are natural siblings.~
@1300 = ~I am not blind, I am aware of what you two have been going through. But I had never thought you would get... 'involved' in that way.~
@1301 = ~But it is not that simple.~
@1302 = ~I know it isn't, Keldorn. But I trust your common sense, and your wisdom. You will see, as we have, that there's nothing wrong in our love...~
@1303 = ~Keldorn, you are married, and you truly love your wife... you should understand this better than anyone.~
@1304 = ~We are not doing anything wrong, and if you can't understand it, then you should reconsider your own marriage.~
@1305 = ~I don't care what you think! No one will stand between us!!~
@1306 = ~I don't have you in the party for moral guidance, paladin. Don't waste my time with your musings.~
@1307 = ~(The paladin grits his teeth) Well thanks Imoen, but that was *not* required... but I presume you already knew that, didn't you?~
@1308 = ~I find your... 'relationship'... a very polemic one. I do try to understand you two, and to be tolerant. However, my feelings as a man are in conflict with the vows I have taken as a paladin of the Most Noble Order of the Radiant Heart.~
@1309 = ~For the paladin, what you both have done together is close to blasphemy. For the man however... I know what love is.~
@1310 = ~I... (He remains thoughtful, looking at both of you from time to time. Then he just smiles affectionately.)~
@1311 = ~Imoen, you always manage to surprise me.~
@1312 = ~<CHARNAME>! (Imoen virtually pulverizes you with one of her withering glares.) Keldorn doesn't deserve that!~
@1313 = ~(She puts a hand on Keldorn's right shoulder, and despite her efforts she begins to smile) You should have some respect for your elders...~
@1314 = ~(Hearing that, Imoen simply approaches you and passes her arm around your waist, smiling at you while doing so.)~
@1315 = ~Here... look at us, Keldorn. What do you see...? Do you see two Bhaalspawns or... two of your friends that have found happiness in each other's arms...?~
@1316 = ~(Keldorn tries to say something, but she doesn't give him a chance to interrupt.)~
@1317 = ~Don't be so narrow minded, Keldorn... try to see past your rules and laws, witness the wonderful thing that has grown between <CHARNAME> and I... and then you will find that not only the man, but also the paladin approves of what we have...~
@1318 = ~(Imoen grins, winking at Keldorn) Yeah, I'm *so* great, aren't I?~
@1319 = ~I knew I could count on you... 'Grandpa' (She giggles as the paladin shakes his head...)~
@1320 = ~Some things change, Keldorn... people can change so much in so little time...~
@1321 = ~I already know that, child. And I am truly trying to understand.~
@1322 = ~<CHARNAME>... I know what has been going on between you and Imoen. I have been waiting to see the outcome of it all...~
@1323 = ~And now that it has progressed to this point, I just wanted you to know that I personally disapprove such a relationship.~
@1324 = ~And not only because a sentimental relationship of such nature, when there is so much at stake, isn't a wise thing to get involved in...~
@1325 = ~Especially, since you are a woman. I find it an unnatural thing, but in that matter everyone should choose freely.~
@1326 = ~Mainly, I disapprove it because you two were raised, have behaved and in sum have *been* like siblings all these years; and now, you have discovered you *are* siblings and Bhaalspawn no less.~
@1327 = ~I don't know how Imoen has fallen into this pit of corruption you dare to call 'love'. Such actions go against the laws of nature.~
@1328 = ~I still respect you, both of you, do not misunderstand. And it's because you are both my friends that I am saying this: your relationship is a mistake and an affront to the natural order.~
@1329 = ~Jaheira... I would have never expected such prejudices from someone like you (more)~
@1330 = ~Imoen means more to me than my own life, Jaheira, I truly love her (more)~
@1331 = ~I have never cared for what you have to say, and I'm not about to start now, Jaheira (more)~
@1332 = ~I respect your opinion, Jaheira, but it is settled already (more)~
@1333 = ~Is that so...? Maybe... maybe you're right... (more)~
@1334 = ~(Jaheira simply stares at you, partly resigned, partly disgusted, partly annoyed.)~
@1335 = ~Whatever you say, <CHARNAME>, I will not enter into an argument with you about this, despite the wrongness of your words. I still think that two Bhaalspawns fornicating undoubtedly offend the principles of nature. I only wanted you to know that.~
@1336 = ~You have made the right choice. It's good to see you still have some common sense left.~
@1337 = ~(You go on with your quest; Imoen simply ignores you. Things between you two would have never worked anyway...)~
@1338 = ~(At least that is what you both repeat to yourselves.)~
@1339 = ~I thought you defended free will, but now it seems you would impose your own will on our right to love each other.~
@1340 = ~If you cannot accept it, I don't know how you became a Harper, and if you don't understand it, I don't know how your relationship with Khalid survived as long as it did.~
@1341 = ~So save yourself the effort, for Imoen and I will stay together no matter what anyone else thinks of us. If we ever decide to part, that will be *our* decision.~
@1342 = ~You will have to accept your point of view is not the only one. I've always thought you were very open minded; don't betray that view I have of you...~
@1343 = ~I have been asking myself the same question again and again... is this right? Isn't this a huge mistake?~
@1344 = ~Your words have opened my eyes, Jaheira. It really is, I see it now.~
@1345 = ~I fell nowhere, Jaheira. I chose to do what my heart longed for. I understood that being Bhaalspawns is completely irrelevant, why aren't you able to?~
@1346 = ~Because I serve Balance, Imoen. However, I was questioning <CHARNAME>, not you.~
@1347 = ~... What?? And that's all? After all we've been through, after all we've told each other... it all turns to nothing, it's over, just like that?~
@1348 = ~I... I...! How could you...!? (Tears are streaming down her face; extremely hurt, she runs away from you.)~
@1349 = ~Don't go after her, <CHARNAME>, leave her for a while. It might be painful, but it is best for everyone.~
@1350 = ~(Aerie giggles looking at you and Imoen) I... I'm glad to see you together, <CHARNAME>. You are perfect for each other!~
@1351 = ~Imoen, why didn't you tell me you had a crush on <PRO_HIMHER>?~
@1352 = ~Bah, never mind. I really hope you'll stay together forever...! You make such a wonderful couple...~
@1353 = ~So you and the girl are finally together. How... appropriate.~
@1354 = ~I was right after all. I knew there was some kind of attraction between you two. It was only a matter of time before you succumbed to your primal desires.~
@1355 = ~I had never imagined you had such... tastes. I don't mean the fact that she is so annoying. I did not realize you lusted after the bodies of other women. Had I known, then perhaps...~
@1356 = ~(She approaches to you and looks lingeringly over your body.)~
@1357 = ~... Perhaps if I would have given you a try... who knows...?~
@1358 = ~Anyway, I wonder... how it feels to have sex with your own sister...?~
@1359 = ~Satisfy my curiosity, <CHARNAME>. I am intrigued.~
@1360 = ~Viconia, Imoen is right. We don't see each other as siblings anymore, so there's no answer for your question.~
@1361 = ~Viconia, you have understood nothing. We don't see each other as siblings anymore, so I can't answer your question.~
@1362 = ~I won't reply to that, Viconia.~
@1363 = ~(You can't help but laugh at Imoen's mocking of her.)~
@1364 = ~It's not like that at all, Viconia... what I feel for Imoen is based on affection and the purest of loves, not physical attraction...~
@1365 = ~Um... it's okay I guess.~
@1366 = ~Actually it's a good question. Let me tell you this, every time I cop a feeling of her t--~
@1367 = ~You filthy bitch, how dare you ask me that?? Apologize to both of us at once!~
@1368 = ~What? What is... (She looks back to see Imoen wearing the most ridiculous of faces.)~
@1369 = ~(Viconia frowns, glaring at both of you as you laugh.)~
@1370 = ~It is no wonder why you two ended up together. One is as childish and pathetic as the other.~
@1371 = ~(She leaves your side while you continue laughing.)~
@1372 = ~(She narrows her dark eyes at you, glaring with despising.)~
@1373 = ~I would not apologize even to Shar, <CHARNAME>. I'd rather leave than apologize to someone as low as you.~
@1374 = ~Then leave.~
@1375 = ~Hmpf... guess that will do.~
@1376 = ~(With one final glare, she walks away, though not too far.)~
@1377 = ~Hmpf... I will never understand you, kivvil. Not that there is much cause for regret in that...~
@1378 = ~Hah...! She has you well trained, dog. I think I have underestimated you all this time, Imoen (She smiles at her with complicity.)~
@1379 = ~No, <CHARNAME>, it's not necessary! What a crazy thing, making a drow apologize! even worse, making VICONIA apologize!! It's obvious you don't know her very well...!~
@1380 = ~See?~
@1381 = ~(Imoen stops mocking Viconia and smiles brightly.)~
@1382 = ~That was very beautiful, <CHARNAME>.~
@1383 = ~(She approaches you, hugs you and kisses your lips with all the love she can gather.)~
@1384 = ~<CHARNAME>!~
@1385 = ~Uhh, I meant that, err... that's none of your business!~
@1386 = ~What?? I was just answering...~
@1387 = ~Why thanks! Yeah, that's true, look at this! Hey <CHARNAME>, bark for us, I'll give you some biscuits!~
@1388 = ~(Scowl at her.)~
@1389 = ~(Raise an eyebrow quizzically.)~
@1390 = ~(Forget about any pride you might have: play along and bark.)~
@1391 = ~Hahah, c'mon, just poking some fun at you, that's all!~
@1392 = ~(Imoen is quite surprised. She didn't actually think you'd play along...)~
@1393 = ~Heheheeee! (Giggling, she jumps into your arms.)~
@1394 = ~My doggieeee! (She licks your nose playfully but the look in her eyes lets you know that when the rest of the party beds down for the night, she will scratch you behind your ear... and just about anywhere else you might desire, as a reward.)~
@1395 = ~Hey, <CHARNAME>... won't you introduce me to your new companions...?~
@1396 = ~Oh, of course...!~
@1397 = ~You can get to know them all by yourself, Imoen.~
@1398 = ~Alright, that's being polite... (She sighs.)~
@1399 = ~Oh, well... (Imoen turns to the first new face she sees) So who are you...?~
@1400 = ~Getting sleepy...~
@1401 = ~Yeah, I see faces of people I already know, heh...~
@1402 = ~Oh well, guess we'll get to know each other pretty well. Let's move our butts already!~
@1403 = ~Hey, and what happened to Jaheira and Minsc...?~
@1404 = ~Unfortunately, we had to split up. The reasons make for a long story... and we don't have enough time for that.~
@1405 = ~They... *ahem*... they died...~
@1406 = ~I hated them, so I kicked them out. That simple.~
@1407 = ~Oh... that's a shame. I had gotten used to their company y'know...? They were great people.~
@1408 = ~And I'll miss Boo too...~
@1409 = ~Oh well, let's go on then. Guess we'll get to know each other pretty well, everyone!~
@1410 = ~What!? B-but they were your *friends*! They've been with us since the beginning of this whole mess...~
@1411 = ~I can't believe you got rid of them just like that. Hmpf... at least you should appreciate what they did for us.~
@1412 = ~C'mon, let's get outta here. I only hope you won't *dare* to do the same to me, Mister!~
@1413 = ~C'mon, let's get outta here. I only hope you won't *dare* to do the same to me, Miss!~
@1414 = ~Oh... that's... that's horrible... that's terrible news, y'know...? I had gotten used to them both, they were great people...~
@1415 = ~I can't believe they're dead...! How did it happen??~
@1416 = ~It's a long story, Imoen. We should get out of here first... they will be avenged.~
@1417 = ~In some random battle, don't know. Can't remember every little detail!~
@1418 = ~I killed them. I didn't like the way they looked at me.~
@1419 = ~Oh, alright... for once I agree with you fully.~
@1420 = ~Guess we'll get to know each other pretty well, people!~
@1421 = ~'Every little detail'?? <CHARNAME>, I thought they were your friends, their deaths should have meant something to you!!~
@1422 = ~How... how insensitive of you! Hmpf...~
@1423 = ~I can only hope you won't see my own death as some 'routine event'...!~
@1424 = ~You *what*? <CHARNAME>, how can you joke about something as serious as this??~
@1425 = ~Hmpf... tell you what, let's get outta here. I can't stand it anymore, and knowing they're dead doesn't help much.~
@1426 = ~Pfft!~
@1427 = ~BLEH!~
@1428 = ~ummm...~
@1429 = ~This is Aerie. She was... um... is an Avariel. She joined us after I helped save a circus she worked in. It's quite a long story actually... she has come to mean a lot to me, to the point where I've fallen in love with her...~
@1430 = ~This is Aerie. She was... um... is an Avariel. She joined us after I helped save a circus she worked in. It's quite a long story actually...~
@1431 = ~The dwarf with that big axe is Korgan. He 'hired me' when I stopped into the Copper Coronet, a tavern in Athkatla. I helped him find a rare book, and then he decided to come along for the ride.~
@1432 = ~That smiling girl is Nalia. She's quite a powerful mage and has some thieving skills too... we cleansed her keep of Trolls.~
@1433 = ~That's Jan Jansen, the gnome. A great... ummm... illusionist and thief...~
@1434 = ~The man with so many scars and the shiny armour is Keldorn, a paladin of the Most Noble Order of the Radiant Heart.~
@1435 = ~Haer'Dalis is the long-haired, dual-wielding tiefling. He's a plane traveler as well as a talented bard.~
@1436 = ~That's my sweetheart Anomen. We met in the Copper Coronet, in Athkatla, and has been with me since then.~
@1437 = ~That's Anomen, a righteous cleric. We met in the Copper Coronet, in Athkatla, and has been with me ever since.~
@1438 = ~That tall man with the staff and all those feathers is Cernd, the druid. We met in a city named 'Trademeet'... it's a long story, actually.~
@1439 = ~Valygar Corthala is the name of the dark muscular man standing there, a stalker of proven value.~
@1440 = ~The female Halfling is Mazzy Fentan. She's a paladin worth two of those of normal stature (that's a compliment, Mazzy...)~
@1441 = ~And I think that's all. The others you know already.~
@1442 = ~And I think that's all.~
@1443 = ~Yeah, whatever...~
@1444 = ~Hi...~
@1445 = ~So ye ar' the bloody Imoen lass everyone's bin babblin' about, eh?~
@1446 = ~Hello, Imoen (Nalia smiles kindly at her) I've heard only good things about you...~
@1447 = ~And don't forget turnip aficionado...!~
@1448 = ~It is good to meet you at last, Imoen.~
@1449 = ~Entropy has made our itinerant paths converge at long last, little nightingale.~
@1450 = ~A pleasure to meet the lost friend at last.~
@1451 = ~My heart rejoices with this meeting as the blackbird rejoices with the coming of dawn.~
@1452 = ~It is good to see that you actually exist, Imoen. I was beginning to have my doubts about it...~
@1453 = ~I'll take it for that, <CHARNAME>. Nice to finally meet you, Imoen.~
@1454 = ~I'm not <PRO_HISHER> 'sister', Viconia... I don't feel like that anymore. And just why did you think <PRO_HESHE>'d answer such a *gross* question?? Hells, you drow are wicked...~
@1455 = ~Because I am asking it, girl. Now hold your tongue and let the adults have their peace.~
@1456 = ~(Imoen rolls her eyes and steps away... behind Viconia, where she has begun making funny faces at her.)~
@1457 = ~You have just killed her, <CHARNAME>. But it seems you don't care at all about that.~
@1458 = ~I cannot believe what my ears have just heard, <CHARNAME>. I pity your merciless heart.~
@1459 = ~And th-that's all? After all this time, you treat her like this? I do not understand you, <CHARNAME>...~
@1460 = ~The child didn't deserve that, <CHARNAME>.~
@1461 = ~That was cruel and disgusting. I hope you don't treat all your 'old friends' like that.~
@1462 = ~That was absolutely unnecessary, <CHARNAME>. Why treat her like that?~
@1463 = ~She is not coming? Boo will miss her...~
@1464 = ~You don't want anything? Oh well, let's go on.~ [MRImRom2]
@1465 = ~(Imoen drifts away from you, and walks on in silence.)~
@1466 = ~(After some minutes, she looks lost in her own personal world. She is looking thoughtfully at some birds that have just taken flight.)~
@1467 = ~(Approach her.)~
@1468 = ~(Leave her to her thoughts, admiring how pretty she looks when she is completely oblivious to those around her.)~
@1469 = ~(Playfully toss a pebble in her direction to see if you can startle her.)~
@1470 = ~(Fling a big, hard rock at her so she will learn to stay alert.)~
@1471 = ~(As you come closer to her, she senses your presence.)~
@1472 = ~Oh, hi again...~
@1473 = ~(Embrace her from behind) what were you thinking?~
@1474 = ~(Kiss the back of her ear) They are beautiful, aren't they?~
@1475 = ~Quit your foolish bird-watching, I want you to be alert.~
@1476 = ~Have I told you that you look like a goddess under this light? (Put your hands on her shoulders and kiss her neck tenderly.)~
@1477 = ~Oh, sorry to disturb you... please don't mind me.~
@1478 = ~Oh nothing at all... I just looked at the birds...~
@1479 = ~Yeah...~
@1480 = ~Mmmh...~
@1481 = ~Yeah you've been saying that quite a lot lately (she giggles.)~
@1482 = ~(Then she looks up again, and points at the birds.)~
@1483 = ~They seem so... *free* up there... I was wondering what it would be like to be able to fly...~
@1484 = ~Well... (Kiss her head) if you want I can try to make you 'fly' for a while too...?~
@1485 = ~I don't wonder about that anymore... every time I have you in my arms I feel like that...~
@1486 = ~Well better if you don't ask Aerie that... she might get all melancholic again, don't know why... (chuckle.)~
@1487 = ~I certainly agree. (Release her and keep walking.)~
@1488 = ~Then don't wonder, and be more alert, dammit!~
@1489 = ~Sheesh ar'ya *always* in the mood for that? You really astonish me... it seems ya can't think of anything else!~
@1490 = ~I'd prefer to turn down your 'kind offer' for now, thank you... I don't feel very much like doing that right now...~
@1491 = ~(She looks up again as the birds fly into the distance.)~
@1492 = ~(Imoen rests the top of her head on your chest; you feel a slight chill run up her body.)~
@1493 = ~<CHARNAME>, do you think of such wonderful things to tell me before you begin talking to me, or do they just simply pop into your head?~
@1494 = ~In any case, I like it a lot...! And to help keep you motivated...~
@1495 = ~(She turns to face you and runs her fingers through your hair. Then leaning into you, she kisses you with such emotion, that you have to catch your breath when she's finished.)~
@1496 = ~(As her lips join yours for a second-helping, she whispers into your open mouth) I gather from your panting that you enjoyed this... (When you part, she turns to look back into the sky.)~
@1497 = ~(Sighing contentedly, you stand together for a while longer...)~
@1498 = ~(Imoen starts to giggle, but thinks better of it.)~
@1499 = ~Oh, that's cruel <CHARNAME>... she's very sensitive about her wings, you know she's suffered a lot.~
@1500 = ~I like that girl, don't be harsh with her... she seemed to be in need of a friend, and I just happened to be there for her.~
@1501 = ~(You both keep looking skywards until the birds finally fade from view.)~
@1502 = ~Yeah, sure...!~
@1503 = ~Huh? What got in your head? I'm not bothering anyone, leave me alone...!~
@1504 = ~Moron...~
@1505 = ~(Imoen shrugs.)~
@1506 = ~Alright, my "sugar butt"... (She giggles.)~
@1507 = ~(When the little stone hits her softly on the top of her head, Imoen glances to the sky and the trees around her, trying to figure out where it came from.)~
@1508 = ~(Not finding anything out of the ordinary, she goes back to her daydreaming with a slight frown on her face.)~
@1509 = ~(Approach her with a mischievous smile) Is it raining pebbles again, Imoen?~
@1510 = ~(Keep throwing her little stones. You just love to annoy her...)~
@1511 = ~(Fling a large stone at her so she'll learn to stay alert.)~
@1512 = ~(Leave her in peace, she looks too cute to keep bothering her.)~
@1513 = ~W-what? (She comes back to reality and focuses on you.)~
@1514 = ~(She has just realized what you were asking, and notices your smile...)~
@1515 = ~Hmpf, so it was *you*! D'ya think that's nice, teasing the girl you love?~
@1516 = ~Hey, you make fun of me whenever you want!~
@1517 = ~Oh c'mon Immy, it was just a silly joke (give her a hug.)~
@1518 = ~Actually, no. That's why I did it... (wink at her.)~
@1519 = ~Well, that's because I'm 'cute little Imoen'! An' cute little Imoen does those sorts of things, that's why no one gets angry with cute little Imoen, 'cause she's cute, and she's little!~
@1520 = ~Now go back to whatever you were doing and let me watch what I want, I command it! (She pushes you away and goes back to her bird-watching.)~
@1521 = ~(Your antics have amused Imoen, and you can't help but wonder how she always manages to find the perfect response...)~
@1522 = ~Oh no, don't you "c'mon" me. Leave me alone, you have managed to upset me...! And don't call me that, you already know that I hate it!~
@1523 = ~Go back to whatever you were doing and let me watch what I want, I command it! (She pushes you away and goes back to her bird-watching.)~
@1524 = ~(Your antics have amused Imoen, and you can't help but wonder how she always manages to 'win' all these conversations...)~
@1525 = ~Urrrrgh you're just like a child sometimes...~
@1526 = ~Now go back to whatever you were doing and let me watch what I want, I command it! (She turns her back to you and resumes her bird-watching.)~
@1527 = ~(Confused, she looks around her again until she looks in your direction, to discover you with a couple stones in a hand and one prepared to be thrown in the other.)~
@1528 = ~So it was *you*!! Hasn't anyone told you that you can be truly immature at times?~
@1529 = ~H-hey, you are always doing things like this! Why not me??~
@1530 = ~Oh c'mon Immy, I was just having some fun. (Try to hug her.)~
@1531 = ~Well look who's talking, the "I'm bored, let's steal something" girl!~
@1532 = ~Uh... I'm sorry ma'am... (look at the ground in shame.)~
@1533 = ~Oh yeah?? Better that than the "I'm a Bhaalspawn, please don't fear me" boy!!~
@1534 = ~Hah! That was said by someone that thought that 'NeverWinter' was a type of Ice-Cream!~
@1535 = ~Oh c'mon Immy, I was just having some fun... (Try to hug her.)~
@1536 = ~Oh yeah?? Better that than the "I'm a Bhaalspawn, please don't fear me" girl!!~
@1537 = ~Oh yeah?? Better that than the "I'm a Bhaalspawn, fear me" boy!!~
@1538 = ~Oh yeah?? Better that than the "I'm a Bhaalspawn, fear me" girl!!~
@1539 = ~That was a long time ago! *You* are the one that thinks that Mustard Jellies are actually edible!~
@1540 = ~Uh, y-you... you snore!!~
@1541 = ~And you stink! How much time has passed since you last got a bath? You smell like an orc's underwear from here!~
@1542 = ~You... uh-~
@1543 = ~I'm sure that last yuan-ti blood soaking is the closest thing you've had to a bath in *years*!~
@1544 = ~And what about your breath?? How many times do I have to tell you to stop eating earthworms?~
@1545 = ~I'm sure it's some kind of custom in the lair you crawled out of, but the civilized world is different from those primal places you use to frequent...~
@1546 = ~I'm certain that's the reason why you *fart* so much! It's bad enough having to hear it but the smell is worse, I assure you...~
@1547 = ~We'd all be a lot better off if you managed to control your bowels a little better, the smell of your poopy pants is overpowering!~
@1548 = ~And then, the way you... ... ... ...~
@1549 = ~(Imoen really seems to be enjoying herself now and could probably keep this up forever.)~
@1550 = ~(Try to exchange insults until she grows tired of it, something you doubt is even possible.)~
@1551 = ~(Laugh) Oh, alright, alright Imoen, you win, that was enough...~
@1552 = ~Imoen... I... I thought you loved me...~
@1553 = ~(You try to keep up to her 'level' as the insults get more and more personal, although 'twisted' would fit better to describe them. From "you're so stupid you can't find your own arse with both hands" to "I'm not the one that sodomizes white furry rabbits in the morning", Imoen displays such a broad repertoire that you finally can't think of more crazy things to tell her...)~
@1554 = ~Hahaaaah, I *won*! Hey you're getting better at this, I remember when we were younger you weren't this good...~
@1555 = ~(She runs over to you and plants a big, wet kiss on your cheek.)~
@1556 = ~ Hehee, you're so sweet, letting me torment you like this... you're *too* kind to me...! (She kisses your lips and then wanders off, humming softly and look up into the sky again.)~
@1557 = ~(As you watch Imoen smile contentedly, you can't help but admire the way she always manages to put you in your place.)~
@1558 = ~And just the way you walk, you...~
@1559 = ~Huh? Why are you stopping, I was having fun! (She pouts.)~
@1560 = ~Fine then, if you're that chicken, then leave me alone!~
@1561 = ~Now go back to whatever you were doing and let me watch what I want, I command it! (She pushes you away and goes back to her bird-watching.)~
@1562 = ~(As you watch Imoen smile contentedly, you can't help but admire the way she always manages to put you in your place.)~
@1563 = ~Huh? (She blinks repeatedly in disbelief) *of course* I do, you dumbhead... (She giggles) I was just having some fun...!~
@1564 = ~It's been a long time since we last 'argued' like that indeed...~
@1565 = ~Meh, anyway, go back to whatever you were doing and let me watch what I want, I command it! (She pushes you away and goes back to her bird-watching.)~
@1566 = ~That's the way I like it!~
@1567 = ~Now be obedient and leave me alone, Mister...!~
@1568 = ~Now be obedient and leave me alone, Miss...!~
@1569 = ~Go back to whatever you were doing and let me watch what I want, I command it! (She pushes you away and goes back to her bird-watching.)~
@1570 = ~(As you watch Imoen smile contentedly, you can't help but admire the way she always manages to put you in your place.)~
@1571 = ~(You throw a sizeable rock at her using considerable strength, knowing it will surely hurt her.)~
@1572 = ~(Your aim is true and the stone strikes her in the back of the head.)~
@1573 = ~Ungh...!~
@4910 = ~(She utters a low moan and drops to the ground, unconscious.)~
@1574 = ~(Blood is beginning to stain the ground where her head rests...)~
@1575 = ~(You really should do something...)~
@1576 = ~Ooops... (Rush to aid her.)~
@1577 = ~(Leave her there.)~
@1578 = ~(Throw more things at her.)~
@1579 = ~(It doesn't look very good...)~
@1580 = ~An act of brutality I would have never expected from you, <CHARNAME>. You should help her and apologise at once if you really value what you share with her, a thing I really doubt...~
@1581 = ~<CHARNAME>, are you crazy or what?? Why did you do it!?~
@1582 = ~Poor Immy, you shouldn't have thrown that at her... I doubt that even a turnip can awaken her now...~
@1583 = ~That was something a coward would do, <CHARNAME>.~
@1584 = ~That was an evil, cowardly act, <CHARNAME>! I hope for your own good that it won't be repeated!~
@1585 = ~Go help her at once, <CHARNAME>!!~
@1586 = ~I'd like to think you were only playing, <CHARNAME>. You could have killed her.~
@1587 = ~Right to the head, <CHARNAME>. If your morals were as good as your accuracy, you'd be a much better person...~
@1588 = ~(Imoen opens her eyes, confused) W-what... what happened? I... I feel dizzy... my head really hurts...~
@1589 = ~Ugh... don't you ever give up?~
@1590 = ~Augh... (She reaches back to touch her head) it hurts back here... (She feels the dampness and looks to see that her hand is covered with blood.)~
@1591 = ~Ohhh, what happened??~
@1592 = ~I threw a rock to annoy you but I threw it too hard... I'm very, very sorry, Imoen, please forgive me...~
@1593 = ~I threw a rock at you. Now you'll learn to always be alert.~
@1594 = ~I don't know! You suddenly fell to the ground, I rushed to catch you but I was too late...~
@1595 = ~Aerie threw that rock at you!! She said she was jealous of you or something!~
@1596 = ~I... I fell...?~
@1597 = ~Why might I have fallen... and why do I have blood right here...?~
@1598 = ~<CHARNAME>, this is beginning to scare me...~
@1599 = ~Maybe it's a side effect of your soul readjusting to your body... don't know, I just hope you won't suffer this again...~
@1600 = ~Oh alright, *I* threw a rock at you to annoy you but I threw it too hard... I'm sorry, very sorry, Imoen, please forgive me...~
@1601 = ~Oh alright... *I* threw a rock at you. Now you'll learn to stay alert.~
@1602 = ~OH alright, Aerie threw that rock at you!! She said she was jealous of you or something!~
@1603 = ~I... I hope so... I still feel dizzy, please help me walk for a while...~
@1604 = ~(You do as she says, and almost feel guilty for lying to her like this...)~
@1605 = ~(*Almost*)~
@1606 = ~That... that you *WHAT*??~
@1607 = ~Are you CRAZY or something?? You could have killed me! Guess how alert I would be if you had...!~
@1608 = ~You are just too much of a whoreson for your own good!! Not only do I have to protect myself from the enemies, now I have to protect myself from YOU!~
@1609 = ~Get away from me, we are no longer even friends!~
@1610 = ~That... that you did *what*?~
@1611 = ~You threw me THAT rock to *annoy me*? More likely to KILL me!!~
@1612 = ~Look, maybe your big, hard, EMPTY head would have resisted that, but not mine! I'll forgive you *this* time, but you better remember that I'm not your personal practice target!~
@1613 = ~Hmpf... throwing that rock to annoy me... moron...~
@1614 = ~(Imoen grins at you, guessing your intentions) Hmm, yer feelin' mushy today, arentcha?~ [MRImRom3]
@1615 = ~(In answer, take her hand in yours and kiss it lovingly whilst staring into her pristine eyes.)~
@1616 = ~Who wouldn't, Imoen? (Give her a quick kiss.)~
@1617 = ~(Act 'cute') Well, yeah...~
@1618 = ~'Mushy' wouldn't be the word... better say 'hot for your bones', babe! (Pull her towards you and assault her mouth with a rough long kiss!)~
@1619 = ~Well... not really... just wanted to see how you were... are you alright?~
@1620 = ~Nope. Not at all. Let's go on.~
@1621 = ~Oh... (She pouts) alright...~
@1622 = ~(You can tell by her expression that she *did* feel "mushy" herself...)~
@1623 = ~(Imoen smiles at that) Oh you're so lovely... come here...! (She takes your face in her hands and gives you a long and rather rough kiss on your lips.)~
@1624 = ~(She puts her arm around your waist and snuggles up beside you, resting her head on your right shoulder.)~
@1625 = ~Let's walk like this, I wanna be close to you...~
@1626 = ~More than pleased, 'Your Sugarness'...~
@1627 = ~But Imoen... everyone is staring at us...~
@1628 = ~I don't think that'd be particularly appropriate...~
@1629 = ~(Imoen laughs heartily at her new title and kisses your shoulder.)~
@1630 = ~(You walk through the streets like that, enjoying the contact of her body...)~
@1631 = ~Bah, to hell with 'em...! Let 'em rot with jealousy!~
@1632 = ~W-wow! (Imoen isn't fast enough -- or doesn't really try -- to avoid your embrace. She relaxes in your arms, letting you lift her off her feet and kiss her as you please.)~
@1633 = ~(In the middle of the kiss however, *she* becomes the aggressor. she seems to come alive and clings to you, her hands begin to massage your back and shoulders, giving you back your kiss in an even more ardent way, her tongue trying to tickle the back of your throat...)~
@1634 = ~(Your lips part, and she smiles impishly) There you go...!~
@1635 = ~So 'hot for my bones', huh? What kind of expression is that? Not very romantic I'd say... (She chuckles.)~
@1636 = ~More than pleased, 'Your Sugarness'...~
@1637 = ~I don't think that'd be very appropriate...~
@1638 = ~(Imoen laughs heartily at her new title and kisses your shoulder) Now *that's* more like it...~
@1639 = ~Well that didn't seem to bother you when you threw yourself at me like that...!~
@1640 = ~It's too late, now you have to obey me! (She snickers.)~
@1641 = ~(Your kiss is received willingly, her blissful expression one that only true love and happiness can bring.)~
@1642 = ~I don't know really... (Sheathing your neck with her arms, she kisses your lips once again.)~
@1643 = ~Forgive me but I feel *very* soppy right now, <CHARNAME>... (she chuckles.)~
@1644 = ~Let's just walk like this, I want to feel close to you...~
@1645 = ~More than pleased, 'Your Sugarness'...~
@1646 = ~I don't think that'd be very appropriate...~
@1647 = ~Oh, please, c'mon, do it for me...~
@1648 = ~Oh alright, you win...~
@1649 = ~I'm not in the mood...~
@1650 = ~(Imoen purrs with pleasure, cuddling against your arm.)~
@1651 = ~(As you approach, Imoen smiles and sheepishly kisses your nose) All this darkness scares me, my good <PRO_LADYLORD>. Couldst thou be my light and allay my fears?~ [MRImRom3]
@1652 = ~At once, my fair lady (hold her tight in your arms protectively, kissing her while you do so.)~
@1653 = ~You bet!! (Bend her backwards over your arms, supporting her weight and bestow upon her a most passionate kiss.)~
@1654 = ~How could this humble servant alleviate thy pain?~
@1655 = ~Hmm... I'll try! (Slide your arms around her waist and hold her tenderly.)~
@1656 = ~Uh... what? Does that mean you want to have sex?? If you do you know I'm all for that.~
@1657 = ~(She moans in delight, enjoying your contact. Reassured by your presence, she buries her face in your chest.)~
@1658 = ~I knew you could...~
@1659 = ~(She sighs, closing her eyes to take pleasure in these few seconds in your arms.)~
@1660 = ~Better get going...~
@1661 = ~(Surprised by your quick maneuver, her eyes go wide as she feels her balance shift.)~
@1662 = ~(However, as her mouth begins to respond to yours, you can tell she is enjoying this... very much.)~
@1663 = ~W-wow... you sure could...!~
@1664 = ~(She smiles dreamily at you) You should do that more often...~
@1665 = ~Hmm... if I may be so bold as to... demonstrate? (She comes even closer to you, takes your face in her hands and ardently kisses your mouth.)~
@1666 = ~(Her hands slide around to the back of your neck and then up through your hair, while her tongue and yours dance together...)~
@1667 = ~(The kiss ends, and she looks into your eyes) Ya liked that, huh...?~
@1668 = ~(She can't help but giggle at your fierce nodding.)~
@1669 = ~Heheh, well, that's enough for now...~
@1670 = ~Huh? You sex-obsessed <PRO_RACE>, can't you be a little more... 'romantic'!?~
@1671 = ~Maybe like... *this*? (Even though you outweigh Imoen, she bends you backwards over her arm, easily supporting you. You have never been kissed like this in your entire life.)~
@1672 = ~(Imoen is surprisingly strong for her size...!)~
@1673 = ~(She stands you back up and noticing your astonishment, she licks her lips pleased with the results.)~
@1674 = ~Well, learn from that!~
@1675 = ~(You get close to Imoen and embrace her from behind. She is gazing at the fading sun behind the sea of leaves and branches the trees create. Peering over her shoulder, you look down inside her tunic and enjoy for a brief moment an even more spectacular sight.)~ [MRImRom1]
@1676 = ~It's beautiful, isn't it...? I love the forests at dusk... as everything turns orange and red, the songs of the birds fade to be replaced by the chorus of countless crickets...~
@1677 = ~It always make me feel kinda... sad... but it's a pleasant sadness.~
@1678 = ~What do you mean by 'pleasant sadness'...?~
@1679 = ~(Murmur while still looking down at her smooth white curves) Yes, incredibly beautiful... this light contributes to make you even prettier.~
@1680 = ~Yes. I know what you mean... the day is dying... want to establish camp here?~
@1681 = ~(Just kiss the back of her ear lovingly.)~
@1682 = ~Not at all, but I'm not interested either.~
@1683 = ~Fine. Then go kill dinner or something and let me enjoy the view alone.~
@1684 = ~(You can feel a chill run down her spine. You know how much she loves that...)~
@1685 = ~Don't know, it's like... like when I climbed to the top of the walls of Candlekeep to watch the sunset...~
@1686 = ~It felt sad, being up there all alone... but it was incredibly beautiful all the same... I don't know how to describe it.~
@1687 = ~Mmh... (She rests her head on your shoulder. The soft breeze that moves through the forest brushes a lock of Imoen's hair against your face, tickling your nose.)~
@1688 = ~Perfect moments like this are hard to come by... let's stay like this a little while, please...~
@1689 = ~(Whisper to her) I was thinking of setting camp here, actually...~
@1690 = ~(Keep kissing her softly, holding her tight to your heart.)~
@1691 = ~I'd like to, but we don't have the time right now... we'll come back here another day, I promise.~
@1692 = ~There's no time to waste like this. Let's go.~
@1693 = ~Whatcha mean by 'to waste like this'? Are you by any chance saying that spending a few moments with me is a waste of your time?~
@1694 = ~(The tone in Imoen's voice sounds certainly dangerous...)~
@1695 = ~Exactly. Move ON.~
@1696 = ~N-no, of course not, how could I think that!? I meant that... uh... just that we need to get going...~
@1697 = ~HMPF! You didn't seem to think that last night...!~
@1698 = ~(Sheesh why must <PRO_HESHE> be so pushy...!?)~
@1699 = ~Hmpf... yeah, sure you meant that...~
@1700 = ~(With a last glance to the sky, Imoen starts walking again.)~
@1701 = ~(She savours each of your kisses in ecstasy. You feel her chest expand and contract against yours, every beat of her heart pumping a bit more of paradise through your veins.)~
@1702 = ~(Whisper into her ear) May we rest in this place, my lady?~
@1703 = ~It really hurts to say we have to continue our travels...~
@1704 = ~... 'the day is dying'... what does that remind me of? I've heard it before...~
@1705 = ~'Darkening at its core the sun struggles to breathe,

	as the shadows steal through the ground the day is dying,

	dying fast, dying sure, light dies, the night swallowing

	a sun that watches silently how shadows in darkness feast.'~
@1706 = ~Why do I know those verses? I don't remember reading them anywhere...~
@1707 = ~(Imoen shrugs) Whatever... so... setting up camp here?~
@1708 = ~... mmmh... sounds great...~
@1709 = ~I'm not very tired. Guess I'll just have to find some way to amuse myself 'til I get sleepy...~
@1710 = ~(She turns to face you; a naughty smile on her lips, a suggestive look in her eyes, and a sensuous tone in her voice that make your heartbeat increase its rhythm.)~
@1711 = ~... got any ideas...?~
@1712 = ~I Guess we'll have to think of something indeed, heheheh...~
@1713 = ~Uh... don't know, a sleep spell?~
@1714 = ~(Just grin back at her knowingly.)~
@1715 = ~(Release her) Imoen! Behave yourself, you're becoming too... too *naughty*!~
@1716 = ~Oh, Imoen, I'm not really in the mood for that tonight...~
@1717 = ~(Imoen licks her lips and motions for your mouth, and you join in a long, deep kiss born directly from her soul. You can feel her small, velvet-soft breasts pressing against your skin as you slide your hands down to rest on her slender hips. Her hands briefly fondle your buttocks and then work their way up your spine, over your shoulders and down your arms to your hands.)~
@1718 = ~(She steps back, her hands still holding yours against her hips; lost inside your eyes, she whispers) Let's get something to eat... and then... then let's love each other... until the first rays of dawn reveal us...~
@1719 = ~I was thinking of something rather... different...~
@1720 = ~(Imoen licks her lips and motions for your mouth, and you join in a long, deep kiss born directly from her soul. You can feel her small, velvet-soft breasts pressing against your skin as you slide your hands down to rest on her slender hips. Her hands briefly fondle your buttocks and then work their way up your spine, over your shoulders and down your arms to your hands.)~
@1721 = ~(The sweetness of her tongue still lingers in both your brain and mouth as she looks into your eyes) Let's get something to eat... and then... let's be one until the first rays of dawn reveal us...~
@1722 = ~*That* sounds great...~
@1723 = ~Ohh... well, if that's the case then let's just sleep in each other's arms... alrighty? I... I love that y'know...~
@1724 = ~Of course... (To the rest of the group) People, we rest here tonight. Let's have something to eat and go to bed.~
@1725 = ~Of course... let's have something to eat and go to bed.~
@1726 = ~Nope... you kicked me way too much the last time we did that...!~
@1727 = ~Oh c'mon, I'll be careful...! Pretty, pretty please, with sugar on top and banana cream over it!~
@1728 = ~Oh, did you hear that? I'm so cute! (She takes your hand whether you like it or not.)~
@1729 = ~Alrighty... I'm quite hungry, my Squashyhoney-poo!~
@1730 = ~Gee did you hear that? I'm soooo cute...!~
@1731 = ~OH don't be that... that hypocritical! you know you *love* it!~
@1732 = ~Well, certainly... (Grin at her.)~
@1733 = ~No, not like that! Where did your innocence go?~
@1734 = ~(Your question has managed to upset her. Imoen's face turns red and angry words burst from her mouth.)~
@1735 = ~Well, it flew off in the wind the moment we first laid together in the middle of the forest!!~
@1736 = ~You can't expect me to remain the same after all we've been through! I had to decide many things and accept many others after that, and one of them was that I loved you, and that I really like what we do together!!~
@1737 = ~But if you can't understand that, then maybe we should just forget about it, right!?~
@1738 = ~(Charmed by her words you can only stare at her. The word 'love' has grabbed hold of your heart.)~
@1739 = ~(You didn't think she'd be so upset) Imoen, please... forgive what I said... I will continue to love you no matter how much you may change.~
@1740 = ~Yes. I think that would be the best thing for both of us.~
@1741 = ~FINE!!!~
@1742 = ~(Imoen turns and runs off. You can hear her sobbing quietly in the distance.)~
@1743 = ~(She just frowns since she is still upset.)~
@1744 = ~Alright, <CHARNAME>. But you must understand that I'm an adult now, you can't think of me as if I were a child anymore.~
@1745 = ~Let's rest. Get away, I'm still angry with you, so don't even *try* sleeping close to me...!~
@1746 = ~(You watch as she settles down in a comfortable spot. Whew... you almost messed it all up...)~
@1747 = ~What!? What're you lookin' at, you moron!?~
@1748 = ~(You don't hear her. She might have told you that she loved you before, but it had never sounded so... heartfelt. So *real*.)~
@1749 = ~Hey, <CHARNAME>! sumthin' got in your head or what? There's nothing to think about, just say yes or no!!~
@1750 = ~(You silence her by embracing her again, possessed by a sudden outburst of passion.)~
@1751 = ~No. I love you too, Imoen, no matter what.~
@1752 = ~Yes. Let's drop it.~
@1753 = ~W-wha...~
@1754 = ~(You kiss her like you did the first time you gave in to each other, like you did in her dreams... You love her, you truly love her more than anything in your life, more than your own life. It's such an overwhelming feeling that you can do nothing but kiss her, and ask for her forgiveness with every one of your gentle caresses, tears escaping your eyes no matter how much you try to hold them back.)~
@1755 = ~I'm sorry Imoen. I'll love you no matter what happens.~
@1756 = ~Nnh... <CHARNAME>... y-- you... h-- hey, <CHARNAME>, are you... are you crying?~
@1757 = ~(Through your tears, you look into her eyes, and without words she understands perfectly what you feel for her.)~
@1758 = ~<CHARNAME>, oh <CHARNAME>... (She starts to kiss you too, and speaks with emotion in her voice) I... sorry for yelling at you, I...~
@1759 = ~I love you so much, <CHARNAME>... every time I'm close to you... I can't stand it... I must feel you, hold you tight... I... you have...~
@1760 = ~(She understands that words are meaningless. There is nothing she can say that could mean more to you than the shine in her eyes when she looks at you or the feeling of her breath against your skin.)~
@1761 = ~(Words are meaningless, for nothing you can say could mean more to her than the way you caress her chin, tenderly stroke here hair or the sweetness in your eyes when you look at her.)~
@1762 = ~(She throws her arms around you with longing, giving you kisses as long and deep as she can; your hearts pump in unison, you are one...)~
@1763 = ~(Your lips part with a final kiss; lost inside your eyes, she whispers) Let's get something to eat... and then... then let's love each other until dawn...~
@1764 = ~(Imoen glances at her surroundings) this place is so dark... it gives me the creeps.~ [MRImRom3]
@1765 = ~And the prospect of being here during the night makes it even worse. Do we always have to crawl through dungeons like this??~
@1766 = ~I'm not in a very... 'romantic' mood right now, y'know? What if we leave it for later, when we're outta here?~
@1767 = ~Of course Imoen... but I just wanted to enjoy some time with you, just cuddling very close, if you want to... we'll comfort each other...~
@1768 = ~Your wishes are orders to me, Your Cherryness...~
@1769 = ~Oh, but I wanted it now...!~
@1770 = ~(Imoen smiles with affection) Alright, I'm always in the mood for that...~
@1771 = ~(Imoen giggles, amused by your words.)~
@1772 = ~You are just too cute when you say things like that...~
@1773 = ~Hey, gimme a break... I can't get aroused in every situation like *you* do...!~
@1774 = ~(Noticing your intentions, Imoen gets closer to you and throws herself into your arms in a childish way.)~ [MRImRom4]
@1775 = ~Hey <CHARNAME>, it's getting dark... will we actually rest somewhere comfy during the night like normal people do, *for a change*?~
@1776 = ~Yeah why not... let's go to the nearest inn.~
@1777 = ~Huh? what do you mean?~
@1778 = ~What does the bare ground lack that it doesn't please you?~
@1779 = ~Rooms cost money, Imoen...~
@1780 = ~I don't think so. Get off me!~
@1781 = ~Ohhh, I'm not cute anymore...? (She pouts. Imoen seems to be in one of her 'cuddly' moods...)~
@1782 = ~Oh, alright. Let's get to the nearest inn...~
@1783 = ~But I don't know what you have against the ground...!~
@1784 = ~Imoen, rooms are expensive...~
@1785 = ~I'm not in the mood, Imoen!! Cut it out, will you?~
@1786 = ~Hmpf... you grumpy <PRO_RACE>...~
@1787 = ~Oh, c'mon, they cost a tenth of a tenth of a *tenth* of what we have!! And I don't think that's much, do you?~
@1788 = ~Are you *serious*?? Tell me you're not serious, because if you're serious, I'll give you a serious kick in your butt!~
@1789 = ~(Imoen is *really* cuddly today indeed...)~
@1790 = ~Just imagine it... fresh sheets... a mattress...~
@1791 = ~... us together in that bed...~
@1792 = ~(Since she put it that way, you tell yourself it doesn't seem like a bad idea at all...)~
@1793 = ~Oh boy oh boy! Ggggrreat! (She hurriedly kisses your cheek, jumping with excitement.)~
@1794 = ~Blankets... *perfumed* blankets... white sheets... a room, a room all to myself...~
@1795 = ~And-- and you of course, heheheee... just imagine the *reward* I have for you...~
@1796 = ~(She keeps talking to herself) I want the most expensive of them... with nice furniture, pictures... a *bath*... ooh, a bath... hmmmm... a bath with <CHARNAME>... ... ...~
@1797 = ~Hey <CHARNAME>! Why aren't we in that inn already??~
@1798 = ~Move your arse, slowpoke!~
@1799 = ~Aaah... (Imoen stretches) last night was great...~
@1800 = ~(She positions herself behind you and grabs one of your butt cheeks!) And I'm not only talking about sleeping in a bed...~
@1801 = ~'Sleeping'... (she giggles) yeah, well, more or less... (She winks at you.)~
@1802 = ~(You begin to approach Imoen in a loving way, but her uneasy look makes you stop.)~
@1803 = ~<CHARNAME>, you heard that...?~ [MRImNig2]
@1804 = ~It's like... some deep breathing... it... it comes from everywhere...~
@1805 = ~I hear nothing out of the ordinary...~
@1806 = ~Don't worry about it... (get closer to hold her in your arms.)~
@1807 = ~No, no, I'm serious... it grows louder... it's coming for us...!~
@1808 = ~Umm... I hear nothing unusual, Imoen...~
@1809 = ~Nonsense. you are hallucinating.~
@1810 = ~Ssshh! Can you hear it? Can you hear it...!? It's over us!!~
@1811 = ~(You notice there's a strange light shining inside Imoen's eyes. Her hands start to glow with magic as she prepares a spell.)~
@1812 = ~IMOEN! There's nothing out there, calm yourself!!~
@1813 = ~Uh-oh... better stay alert just in case!~
@1814 = ~It's...~
@1815 = ~It's there!! (She points to the west.)~
@1816 = ~I... I... (Imoen's breath resounds in the darkness of the forest.)~
@1817 = ~There was... there was a...~
@1818 = ~(Quickly hold her dearly in your arms, telling her with caresses to calm down.)~
@1819 = ~Imoen, what happened to you...? You are worrying me...~
@1820 = ~Are you crazy or what??~
@1821 = ~Agh, I thought we were being attacked! Don't do that again!~
@1822 = ~I... I don't... the...~
@1823 = ~(Seeing that words do nothing, hold her tenderly in your arms, caressing her to calm her down.)~
@1824 = ~Bah... (Leave her where she is.)~
@1825 = ~(Imoen's heart is racing. You hold her head to your chest, softly stroking her hair and face, kissing her, whispering things to her so she'll settle down.)~
@1826 = ~(With agonizing slowness, her breath returns to normal and her pounding heart resumes its normal beat.)~
@1827 = ~<CHARNAME> I... what's happening to me...?~
@1828 = ~(You can tell she's fully aware of what she just suffered.)~
@1829 = ~It was... so real... I felt it overwhelming my ears... I almost saw some kind of shadow but...~
@1830 = ~I... I couldn't control myself... oh what's happening to me...!?~
@1831 = ~(Tightening your embrace, you remember she had pointed towards the west... exactly in the direction of Spellhold.)~
@1832 = ~Imoen... you pointed towards Spellhold... all that you suffered there is still haunting your mind...~
@1833 = ~I... I don't know, Imoen... it was as if you were another person all of sudden...~
@1834 = ~If you don't know, guess how confused I am.~
@1835 = ~Simply forget about it. We should get going.~
@1836 = ~<CHARNAME>! I still feel a horrible buzz in my head and you're telling me to 'simply forget it'!? It's not that easy you know? I can't make it just go 'poof' by snapping my fingers!~
@1837 = ~Hmm... you pointed towards Spellhold... maybe all you suffered there is still haunting your mind...~
@1838 = ~I don't know, Imoen...! It was as if you were another person all of sudden...~
@1839 = ~Well, if you don't know, guess how confused I am.~
@1840 = ~(Release her) Then find a way of doing it. You're being too weak for my taste.~
@1841 = ~(She pushes you away, outraged) SORRY, <CHARNAME>! Sorry for wasting your time like this!! It won't happen again, I promise!!!~
@1842 = ~(Imoen turns away and blinded by tears runs into the dark forest, the emotional pain shattering her already tormented mind.)~
@1843 = ~(Good. You won't see that weakling again.)~
@1844 = ~I... I just don't...~
@1845 = ~(She cries. Trembling in your arms, she can just barely keep her emotions in check. Her feelings of hopelessness and desperation are so overpowering that a feeling of misery and despair washes over you as well.)~
@1846 = ~Why...? why can't I make it go...!?~
@1847 = ~(Sobs rack her body until she finally allows her inner fears and worries to surface.) Why won't it disappear...? I just want to forget, to let those memories go away...!~
@1848 = ~But even... even when they're not in my mind, they rise up... from my subconscious...~
@1849 = ~It was so real... I could hear and feel that sound inside my head, until it was unbearable...!~
@1850 = ~Why, <CHARNAME>...? Why...?~
@1851 = ~Imoen... I'd give just about anything to know... I can't stand seeing you suffer like this...~
@1852 = ~I wish I knew how to make them stop troubling you...~
@1853 = ~Maybe when I tear Irenicus' skin apart those worries will vanish!~
@1854 = ~I don't know... but I think that the sooner we get to Irenicus, the sooner these awful memories will fade away... *ahem* we must get moving now...~
@1855 = ~(Release her) Dwelling on such stupid things only slows us down. Don't be weak. Either get over this, or just shut up.~
@1856 = ~(Imoen looks at you in complete disbelief, despair, desolation, anguish...)~
@1857 = ~Y-you are right... better if we go on... I'll try and control it...~
@1858 = ~But I don't know if I'm strong enough for it...~
@1859 = ~(Imoen merely curls further into you) Just... hold me...~
@1860 = ~The closer I am to you... the more distant those things seem...~
@1861 = ~(Do as she says with pleasure.)~
@1862 = ~I love you, Imoen... always remember that, *always*...~
@1863 = ~I exist only to please every one of your wishes...~
@1864 = ~Imoen... I'd love to but...~
@1865 = ~(Release her) I'm not here to be your mind's healer. Don't be weak. Either get over it by yourself, or just shut up.~
@1866 = ~Shh, please... no words...~
@1867 = ~(You stand there holding her close, sharing your strength with her. A very pleasant warmth blankets you as you feel how her soul pumps, *lives* in your arms.)~
@1868 = ~(You kiss her softly to give further comfort to her aching spirit.)~
@1869 = ~(Keep holding her in silence, enjoying the moment.)~
@1870 = ~(Keep holding her wondering how much longer this will last.)~
@1871 = ~(Gently nudge her out to arms length) Are you better now Imoen? I'm really sorry but... we need to get moving already...~
@1872 = ~(Release her) I'm tired of you, I'm not here to heal your mind. Don't be weak. Either get over it by yourself, or just shut up.~
@1873 = ~(After a while, she sighs deeply and slowly steps away from you) Thanks... That helped me, really...~
@1874 = ~C'mon... I've made us lose too much time already...~
@1875 = ~(You brush the hair from her forehead and kiss the tears that still lie on her cheeks. Tilting her face upwards you kiss her chin and then her throat as she arches her back very slightly, exposing her neck further.)~
@1876 = ~(Each time your teeth caress Imoen's skin, you feel a shiver run through her body. She gradually reacts to your caresses, enjoying them, savouring them as moans born of pleasure escape her control.)~
@1877 = ~(Aching with desire, she moves her head to be able to kiss you back. She kisses your throat up to the chin; her lips stopping briefly along your jaw line to finish in your ear, the gentle caress of her tongue sending a shiver down your spine.)~
@1878 = ~(Forgetting about everything else, you and Imoen move to a more secluded spot, still immersed in the paradise of each other's body.)~
@1879 = ~(Without words, you surprise Imoen by sweeping her into your arms and kissing her intensely.)~ [MRImRom2]
@1880 = ~W-wow...! What got into you...?~
@1881 = ~Just reminding you I still care (Wink at her.)~
@1882 = ~I needed that. I can't seem to go for very long without needing to feel your mouth on me...~
@1883 = ~You were too tempting, standing there with your crimson hair and your beautiful face...~
@1884 = ~Let's *do* 'it', Imoen!~
@1885 = ~What, can't I kiss you 'just because'? Come, let's go...~
@1886 = ~Well, yeah... you have my permission to do it more often, indeed (She smiles brightly.)~
@1887 = ~What?? Hey I'm not some... some horse you can ride whenever you want...!~
@1888 = ~Get a grip on those very naughty thoughts of yours, <CHARNAME>! Better if we walk a little distance apart from each other for a while just in case...~
@1889 = ~Yeah, sure!~
@1890 = ~Hahahah! Oh <CHARNAME>, then don't hesitate and do it more often! (She grabs your nape, 'forcefully' coaxing your mouth to come closer to hers and then plants a kiss on your lips. When you finally part she smacks her lips loud enough that the noise resounds in the nearly empty streets.)~
@1891 = ~Hmm... I've been thinking...~
@1892 = ~<CHARNAME>, you like my haircut...?~
@1893 = ~Huh? Did you change it or something?~
@1894 = ~Yeah, why'd you ask?~
@1895 = ~Actually, I think you should let your beautiful hair grow...~
@1896 = ~To tell the truth, you should change your hairstyle.~
@1897 = ~Well I think a little shorter would look *even* better.~
@1898 = ~Don't be that self-centered and move your arse... time flies.~
@1899 = ~Oh, c'mon, don't you ever chit-chat even a little?~
@1900 = ~Hmpf... fine then...~
@1901 = ~Oh... shorter? Well...~
@1902 = ~Change it...? Well...~
@1903 = ~That's good to hear, 'actually' (She smiles at you.)~
@1904 = ~Well...~
@1905 = ~*That's* what I mean, <CHARNAME>...!~
@1906 = ~I've been considering letting it grow so long that it will fall over my back... down to my butt, heheh!~
@1907 = ~I've grown bored of this hairstyle... I mean, I've worn it the same ever since... umm... since we left Baldur's Gate!~
@1908 = ~Before that it was a little longer... but I thought it made me look fat. Or maybe I *was* fat! (She is making faces at you now, threatening ones at that) Don't you *dare* say a word about that, <CHARNAME>...~
@1909 = ~Remember when I was sixteen or so? It fell down to my waist... my hair I mean. I think I looked great like that...! But that was before the... "scissors incident"...~
@1910 = ~Uh, yeah... I remember that one... (smile nervously.)~
@1911 = ~"Scissors incident"?~
@1912 = ~Imoen, how do you manage to say so much in so little time, and still say nothing at all?? You're worse than Jan!~
@1913 = ~Imoen, how do you manage to say so much in so little time, and still say nothing at all??~
@1914 = ~Whatever... look, I just wanted to kiss you, nothing more!~
@1915 = ~Hey, others can eat swords or spit melon seeds thirty feet away... I can talk!~
@1916 = ~So... where was I? Oh yeah, you and your scissors!!~
@1917 = ~Oh don't tell me you don't remember!~
@1918 = ~You can be really vengeful at times...! And just because I "accidentally" ruined your whole biographical essay about Alaundo, which by the way, was *only* a weeks worth of work...~
@1919 = ~How could you take those rusted scissors and *attack my beautiful hair* like that?? I swear, I would have never thought...~
@1920 = ~(Silence her with a kiss --you look around at the party and see that everyone is begging you to do so... except for Jan, who keeps track of the story with utmost attention.)~
@1921 = ~(Silence her with a kiss --you look around at the party and see that everyone is begging you to do so...)~
@1922 = ~(Silence her with a kiss for the sake of your ears.)~
@1923 = ~(Let her continue with her fascinating story.)~
@1924 = ~Argh, Imoen, SHUT UP!~
@1925 = ~... you'd do som-- (She's rudely interrupted by a tongue inside her mouth that strangely is not hers) --mm... mmmmh...~
@1926 = ~(She closes her eyes and runs one hand through your hair, plays with your earlobe with the other as she pushes her body up against yours.)~
@1927 = ~Nnh... that was... nice...~
@1928 = ~Uh... what were we talking about...? Bah, who cares! (She kisses you again, this time even more avidly.)~
@1929 = ~(It was worth taking the risk and interrupting her, it seems...)~
@1930 = ~... you'd do something like that to me...!~
@1931 = ~Hehehe, I still remember the look on Gorion's face when he found me chasing you all around the library, both downstairs and upstairs... we spent many hours afterwards shelving all the books we had thrown to the floor...~
@1932 = ~Oh well, and so I had to cut it shoulder-length to not look like a complete freak...~
@1933 = ~So whatcha think?~
@1934 = ~I... uh... about what?~
@1935 = ~That we were completely nuts.~
@1936 = ~So many words... I'm confused...~
@1937 = ~Yeah, let it grow.~
@1938 = ~Better leave your hair as it is.~
@1939 = ~The shorter, the better.~
@1940 = ~I think you talk way too much...!~
@1941 = ~About my hair, you prat! What else could I be asking about? So, what do you think, should I let it grow or...?~
@1942 = ~No, not about that; my hair! What do you think, should I let it grow or...?~
@1943 = ~Huh, why? Just tell me what you think about it!~
@1944 = ~Great! I would have done that anyway, but just wanted to know what you thought (She giggles winking at you.)~
@1945 = ~Hmm, don't know. I think I'll let it grow anyway. It's not that I don't care about what you think but... well, actually I *don't* care about what you think (She giggles winking at you.)~
@1946 = ~(She seems pleased to find you thought of her right now) <CHARNAME>, I hate being in caverns and the like at night...~ [MRImRom1]
@1947 = ~It's horrible, it brings back a lot of memories. And none of them are very pleasant...~
@1948 = ~But now you are here, with me... (Embrace her, holding the back of her head with your right hand in a protective gesture.)~
@1949 = ~You know I want to get out of here as soon as we can... (raise her chin with your finger so she will look into your eyes.)~
@1950 = ~Memories aren't real. I am. (Kiss her lips gently.)~
@1951 = ~Yeah, especially with that huge rat over there staring at us... I think it wants to eat us, be alert.~
@1952 = ~Mmmmh... (She caresses your neck with her lips) But you know, it's not that I feel scared but... *uncomfortable*. A strange... nuisance in the back of my head...~
@1953 = ~(You swim into the sea of Imoen's eyes, diving deeper and deeper, reaching the desperate longing, the desperate need for your love that resides there. And when she smiles, you know that the same longing and need is evident in your own eyes.)~
@1954 = ~(Without a word, she kisses the corner of your lips and rests her head on your chest, wrapping her arms around your waist.)~
@1955 = ~It's not like... I'm frightened or anything but... don't know, I'm just *uncomfortable*. There's a strange twinge in the back of my head that won't leave...~
@1956 = ~(As your lips part with a rather loud smack, she smiles at you.)~
@1957 = ~You know, it's not a feeling of true fear but... it's something that makes me feel uncomfortable no matter what I do... like there's something in the back of my head that keeps nipping at my brain...~
@1958 = ~Haw-haw, how funny you are... (She softly slaps your face, and wags her finger at you as if she was reprimanding a child.)~
@1959 = ~Don't joke about those things, <CHARNAME>, you know I *especially* dislike rats...!~
@1960 = ~Urk... rats! This place has loads of them. Why can't they be hamsters? I love hamsters... like the one Minsc had, heheh...~
@1961 = ~Anyway, if you are done *scaring me*, we'd better get moving...!~
@1962 = ~Alright! (They go play with the hamster like little children, leaving you standing where you are with an eyebrow raised.)~
@1963 = ~It's not very enjoyable... it shows up in dark places like this. Even with my soul back, this feeling continues to haunt me...~
@1964 = ~Imoen... then let me see if I can make that feeling go away (Pull her close to you and kiss her passionately, while gradually moving away from the rest of the party.)~
@1965 = ~Imoen... then let me see if I can make that feeling go away (Pull her close to you and kiss her passionately, while gradually moving to a more comfortable location.)~
@1966 = ~I hope that feeling will be gone with time, my love... All I can offer you now is this. (Fervently join your mouth to hers in a prolongued kiss.)~
@1967 = ~Hmm... that's too bad. (Kiss her cheek) We better get moving, maybe some action will get those thoughts out of your mind...~
@1968 = ~I've heard that a hundred times already, Imoen. You whine too much. I only wanted some sex, you don't have to talk for that.~
@1969 = ~I certainly hope so, my 'Cherrybottoms' (She smiles.)~
@1970 = ~(You wonder just exactly what 'cherrybottoms' means, but continue on with your quest.)~
@1971 = ~(She moans with pleasure, unable to suppress it) I *know* you're able to, my <CHARNAME>... for some hours at least...~
@1972 = ~MMmmh! Hehee, this is the good counterpart of the two of us traveling alone...~
@1973 = ~Mmmh! B-but wait <CHARNAME>... uh, w-what about the others...?~
@1974 = ~(Kiss her neck) I was going to set camp here anyway...~
@1975 = ~(Bite her neck) to *hell* with them...!~
@1976 = ~Oh... alright... guess we better leave it for some other time.~
@1977 = ~(She giggles softly) That sounds good... (she kisses you back repeatedly.)~
@1978 = ~Oh c'mon <CHARNAME> we shouldn't be that selfish... we aren't alone on this journey after all!~
@1979 = ~Just let's hold hands for a while, it might not be the same but it's soppy enough for me to be a little more at ease... (She winks at you, smiling.)~
@1980 = ~(She sighs) Right you are!~
@1981 = ~(She moans loudly, unable to help it) Oh... <CHARNAME>...~
@1982 = ~(She stops kissing you and hungrily bites your neck. You know what this is going to lead to...)~
@1983 = ~(You pause just long enough to inform the others that you are stopping for the night and then return your attentions to Imoen, your mouth one with hers, your hands roaming freely over her soft, warm body...)~
@1984 = ~Umm, Imoen... better if we leave *that* for some other time... we aren't the only members of the group you know...?~
@1985 = ~(Forget about everyone else and indulge your passions.)~
@1986 = ~(She raises her head and looks as if she was awakening from a very pleasant dream.)~
@1987 = ~(Keep kissing her) mmmh... Imoen, let's stay here...~
@1988 = ~(Hold her close and begin to indulge yourself.)~
@1989 = ~Imoen... we don't have the time for this, we better leave it for any other time...~
@1990 = ~(Imoen nods absently at you, her eyes closed... she is immersed in a very pleasant world that she won't leave until she has explored it in its entirety.)~
@1991 = ~(Imoen keeps kissing you, caressing you, loving you...)~
@1992 = ~(Lost in each other's arms, you forget about everything; Irenicus is a faint shade on the horizon now... the only one you see, hear, taste, *feel*, is Imoen.)~
@1993 = ~(For several hours all your problems simply vanish, replaced by quiet moans and startled gasps born of passion and pleasure...)~
@1994 = ~(She backs away from you, hurt... and angry.)~
@1995 = ~If that's all you want from me, <CHARNAME>, you should have let me know sooner. It would have saved me an awful lot of grief.~
@1996 = ~All my worries were pointless, I see. You are not the person I thought you were. I can't believe I was fooled so badly...~
@1997 = ~(Her voice begins to tremble) Get away from me. You won't touch me again.~
@1998 = ~(She walks away from you, sniffling. As your eyes follow her with a perverted gaze, she begins to cry, her heart and dreams shattered by your cruel insensitivity.)~
@1999 = ~(You realize that you have just let a treasure slip from your hands, but it's too late to do anything more than watch her leave you... forever.)~
@2000 = ~(You come closer to Imoen with the intention of saying something beautiful to her. She has been a little sad lately.)~ [MRImRom5]
@2001 = ~Imoen... your eyes are so profound I could fall into them and never reach the bottom...~
@2002 = ~Imoen, every time you smile I find it brighter than a thousand suns of mercury...~
@2003 = ~Imoen, when your soft hair blows in the breeze it resembles a singing stream that tirelessly flows, quenching the thirst of those that hunger for your love...~
@2004 = ~Imoen... whenever I see your boobs I drool myself dry...!~
@2005 = ~Uh... Imoen, nice... something...~
@2006 = ~... huh? What kind of... of *thing* was that? Were you trying to compliment me perchance??~
@2007 = ~You should take some lessons, <PRO_MANWOMAN>... with practice, you could think of things like... umm...~
@2008 = ~"The stars flicker with envy whenever you look at them, as the brightness of your eyes makes their own light seem pale by comparison"~
@2009 = ~Tell me that next time we talk, huh? (she giggles.)~
@2010 = ~(She laughs at your "compliment") What? Was that your idea of a 'compliment'...? Couldn't you tell me something pretty, like, don't know...~
@2011 = ~"<CHARNAME>... The stars flicker with envy whenever you look at them, as the brightness of your eyes makes their own light seem pale by comparison...~
@2012 = ~Lay with me this night under their jealous gaze..." Memorize that and tell it to me next time we talk. (she giggles.)~
@2013 = ~H-huh...? (She smiles cheerily) You thought that one up all by yourself just for me...?~
@2014 = ~No, please, don't smile, you blind me with your brilliance...!~
@2015 = ~I didn't have to think much. Every time I look at you, all manner of compliments simply spring up in my mind, such is the majesty of your bearing...~
@2016 = ~For you, I'd spill the last drop of my blood; the least I could do was think of something pretty to tell you...~
@2017 = ~Yep! (Wait for your well-earned kiss.)~
@2018 = ~Nope. I read it somewhere.~
@2019 = ~Oh... thanks anyway, heh...~
@2020 = ~Hey, thanks! That's really good... you should write it down somewhere.~
@2021 = ~(You can almost hear her say 'No kiss for you today, hehe!'...)~
@2022 = ~Oh and they keep coming! (She slips her arms around your waist.)~
@2023 = ~It can't be any other way. Your very presence is worthy of a million praises, I simply tell you a fraction of those you really deserve.~
@2024 = ~That is because it feels like the sun rises every time I feel you close, and the darkness of the night seizes me once you are away again...~
@2025 = ~Yeah, well... (Look at her with 'longing eyes'.)~
@2026 = ~Nope, they are over...~
@2027 = ~Well, thanks! They are really good... you should write them down somewhere.~
@2028 = ~(She touches your forehead with hers, whispering directly into your mouth.)~
@2029 = ~Heheh... you smooth talker... is this what you're looking for?~
@2030 = ~(Imoen opens her mouth, waiting for you to do the same... teasing you, her tongue slowly approaches yours, once and again almost caressing you, but never actually reaching your lips...)~
@2031 = ~(She smiles, briefly licks your lower lip ... and then bites it, then kisses you with all the passion she can muster.)~
@2032 = ~(After a seemingly endless moment, your lips part; she titters as you both hold hands and get 'romantic' with each other.)~
@2033 = ~(After an intense session of kisses, fondles and hugs, she swims into your eyes.)~
@2034 = ~<CHARNAME>... The stars flicker with envy whenever you look at them, as the brightness of your eyes makes their own light seem pale by comparison...~
@2035 = ~Lay with me tonight under their jealous gaze...~
@2036 = ~... huh? Isn't that from "Reverisco", Theorin Hawler's novel?? I read it too back in Candlekeep, you know?~
@2037 = ~I'll make that a promise...~
@2038 = ~Yeah, sure! Can't wait 'till tonight!!~
@2039 = ~Umm... don't know...~
@2040 = ~Hey, for once it was *I* that asked you! Appreciate that, dammit...!~
@2041 = ~Hmpf... forget about it then...~
@2042 = ~I think so... I'd have to check around three thousand times to be sure though *ahem*~
@2043 = ~(Imoen smiles at you with her eyes half closed and a look of anticipation on her face.)~
@2044 = ~(Imoen looks a little surprised) Dammit... I thought you wouldn't remember...!~
@2045 = ~Anyway, I'm being serious, heheheh...~
@2046 = ~(Looking at her, a variety of desires assault your will, not knowing how to express your feelings toward her.)~ [MRImRom3]
@2047 = ~(Approach her and kiss her nose playfully.)~
@2048 = ~(Embrace her lovingly.)~
@2049 = ~(Take her hand in yours, kneel before her and kiss it chivalrously.)~
@2050 = ~(Bow to her, throwing yourself to the ground in the middle of the street and worship her magnificence comically.)~
@2051 = ~(Sing her some love poem you happen to remember.)~
@2052 = ~(Approach her, and without warning take her in your arms and kiss her sweeping her off her feet.)~
@2053 = ~(Just caress her cheek with your lips shyly.)~
@2054 = ~(Embrace her from behind, touching some 'forbidden places' and whisper something dirty in her ear.)~
@2055 = ~(Think of a breath-taking compliment to praise her beauty.)~
@2056 = ~(Just keep looking at her admiring how her hair reflects the dawn's light.)~
@2057 = ~(Think the better of it and leave her alone.)~
@2058 = ~Heheheh that tickles...~
@2059 = ~Hey, is that all? I had hoped for more... (she pouts.)~
@2060 = ~(Hug her lovingly.)~
@2061 = ~MMmmh... that felt nice...~
@2062 = ~Hehehe! Stand up, my valiant knight... you have earned a reward from your Queen...~
@2063 = ~(She gives you such a clamorous smack, that at the parting it sounds all over the streets of the city.)~
@2064 = ~Hahahah...! Stand up you crazy sod...! Everyone is looking...!~
@2065 = ~Eew... your intentions are cute and all but... that sounded worse than the first song I composed! and it was *really* bad...~
@2066 = ~Whoa! (As the kiss lasts, she remains as if charmed in your arms, unable to do anything more than enjoy such a pleasant present from you.)~
@2067 = ~You're getting better and better at that...~
@2068 = ~(She giggles at your lack of determination.)~
@2069 = ~Oh c'mon is that all? I had hoped for more...!~
@2070 = ~(Just keep looking at her admiring how her hair reflects the dawn's light.)~
@2071 = ~H-hey hands off...! We're in the middle of the street...!~
@2072 = ~And I wouldn't do *that* even if you were the last man standing in the Realms! You pervert...~
@2073 = ~Oh... oh aren't you sweet? You thought of that all by yourself? (Imoen kisses your cheek and moves away with a smile printed on her face.)~
@2074 = ~<CHARNAME>? What are you looking at...? Is there something wrong with my hair??~
@2075 = ~(Imoen looks around at the grim surroundings.) You know <CHARNAME>, I'm not really in the mood to get all soppy right now...~
@2076 = ~I mean... it must be near dawn, I'm still sleepy, my head hurts... and this place is crawling with rats. It isn't very romantic, y'know...?~
@2077 = ~It stirs some... bad memories. I promise that when we get outta here we'll spend some time together...~
@2078 = ~Of course, Imoen... I'll get us out of here as soon as I can.~
@2079 = ~As you wish, 'Your Cuteness'... (Kiss the back of her hand.)~
@2080 = ~Aawwn... oh, alright.~
@2081 = ~(She gives you a tired smile.)~
@2082 = ~It's good to hear you say that, <CHARNAME>.~

@2086 = ~I know ya can't resist me but, heh, you're just gonna have to try!~
@2087 = ~<CHARNAME>, I know Aerie would never do that...~
@2088 = ~Oh alright, I threw a rock to annoy you but I threw it much too hard... I'm very, very sorry, Imoen, please forgive me...~
@2089 = ~Oh, alright... I threw a rock at you. Now you'll learn to stay alert.~
@2090 = ~Well, alright, I don't know what happened! You suddenly fell to the ground, I rushed to catch you but I was too late...~
@2091 = ~Uh, Mirrabbo...? Is that a lesser god or something...?~
@2092 = ~You... you?~
@2093 = ~I threw a rock at you to annoy you but I threw it much too hard. I'm sorry, very sorry. Imoen, please forgive me...~
@2094 = ~I threw a rock at you. Now you'll learn to stay alert.~
@2095 = ~No, not me... I don't really know what happened; you suddenly fell to the ground, I rushed to catch you but I was too late...~
@2096 = ~(Imoen looks at you, and smiles brightly.)~
@2097 = ~Feel my heart, know my pain, caress me...

Can you feel it? it's so sweet... it's so vain...

MMmmh... Are you here? are you with me?

I can feel it... and it's beautiful.~
@2098 = ~Glad to see you again... (Smiling, Imoen leans over to you and kisses you warmly.)~
@2099 = ~Waking up by your side can be so beautiful...~
@2100 = ~But stand up...! We have a good distance to cover today. (She lifts the blankets to look under them; seeing your naked body beside hers, she giggles) On second thought, better if you *put something on* before standing up...!~
@2101 = ~(You sit with your backs against the wall, and your arms around each others waists. It's such a warm feeling, you almost forget that you are still within the cold, damp dungeon.)~
@2102 = ~(No matter where you are, or the circumstances. When you are this close to Imoen, everything else fades and only she remains.)~
@2103 = ~(And the most pleasant feeling of all, is that you know she feels the same way about you.)~
@2104 = ~(After resting some time in blissful silence, you both come back to the cruel real world.)~
@2105 = ~(But now, still holding her hand as you stand up, it somehow seems a little less cruel...)~
@2106 = ~(Things will never again be the same between you two.)~
@2107 = ~(Holding hands, you go back to where the rest of the party is sitting, and prepare everything to spend the night there.)~
@2108 = ~(Holding hands, you look for a comfortable place to spend the night.)~
@2109 = ~(... you can't wait to get to that inn yourself...)~

@2113 = ~(You both are already floating in ardour, exploring every inch of your anatomies with caresses and kisses, spinning in a whirlwind of unrestrained passion and mutual devotion.)~
@2114 = ~(You can hear nothing but Imoen's moans of pleasure, her impassioned gasps, her delightful sighs... a world of whispered yearning in it's purest state. Imoen bites your earlobe again as her breath strokes your neck, her heart consumed with sheer hunger for yours.)~
@2115 = ~(Immersed in this orchestra of tender feelings and delicious sounds, you wonder how you could have ever resisted being this close to each other before... Imoen is your entire world, a plane of existence immensely vaster than the biggest of the planes.)~
@2116 = ~(Maybe this won't make her memories disappear forever. The demons are so deeply rooted in her wounded mind that only she will be able to exorcize them...)~
@2117 = ~(But at least, for some precious hours, her fears turn into dust, replaced by endless strokes, by infinite kisses... by shudders of mutual adoration.)~

@2120 = ~(It's Imoen, singing with a voice that resembles that of an angel to you.)~

@2122 = ~What??? Th-- that's not true!~
@2123 = ~Yes it is!! You're jealous of her!~
@2124 = ~Oh alright, I threw it!~
@2125 = ~(She looks in Minsc's direction) Not hamsters of course, Minsc...! I love cute little Boo, heheh...~
@2126 = ~And who wouldn't, I ask myself! I asked Boo too, but he didn't know either...~
@2127 = ~Oh, is that possible? I thought Boo knew everything!~
@2128 = ~Well, he is very smart, but he can't know EVERYTHING! That would be impossible, EVEN for Boo...~
@2129 = ~Say, Minsc, could I play with it... um, 'him' for a while? I love it when he runs up my arm!~
@2130 = ~Sure! You agree, don't you Boo? Yes, he loves good little Imoen...~
@2131 = ~That was very cruel of you, <CHARNAME>.~
@2132 = ~Finally you got rid of her, <CHARNAME>.~

@2149 = ~(You can tell from Imoen's tone that she wants to talk about quite a serious issue.)~
@2150 = ~Of course, Imoen... what troubles you?~
@2151 = ~What do you want?~
@2152 = ~Not now, Imoen... this is really an awful time.~
@2153 = ~As long as you don't take too much time...~
@2154 = ~No. I hate the sound of your voice, shut up!~
@2155 = ~(Imoen is startled by your sudden outburst.)~

@2162 = ~And I realized that... well, I hadn't really thanked you properly. You know, for getting me out of there and all...~
@2163 = ~Please Imoen, you should know that's not necessary. You are a vital part of my life.~
@2164 = ~I only did what you would have done in my place, Imoen.~
@2165 = ~As always, I had no choice. I had to get into Spellhold to find you, and to find Irenicus...~
@2166 = ~Well, to tell the truth I was chasing Irenicus, nothing more.~
@2167 = ~Hmmm... you aren't trying to steal something from me, are you?~
@2168 = ~Agh, I wish I hadn't found you again, it seems I can't get rid of your annoying presence! SHUT UP!!~
@2169 = ~Whoa easy there! I was only trying to be gentle, sorry if that's a threat to yer authority...!~
@2170 = ~<CHARNAME>! Oh please, of course not, I'm being serious for once!~
@2171 = ~Oh alright... sorry, it's just that it was so sudden...~
@2172 = ~Hmmm... I don't trust you. You used to make up things like this when you got bored and wanted to steal something from me...~
@2173 = ~Oh, fine then! I was only trying to be grateful, but you are so paranoid you can't appreciate that...~
@2174 = ~(She whispers to herself, but you manage to hear her) Dammit... didn't think <PRO_HESHE>'d notice!! I'm losing my skills...~

@2180 = ~Whoa... how did you do that??~

@2185 = ~(Imoen is surprised by your lack of interest.)~
@2186 = ~H-- hey, ya don't want it?? (She sings in a teasing way) I'm gonna keep it for sure...!~
@2187 = ~Arrgh, give it back!~
@2188 = ~Hmpf, you wouldn't understand it's power!~
@2189 = ~Fine, keep it then. Just leave me alone.~
@2190 = ~Huh...? so you really don't want it??~
@2191 = ~I'll use it in that case, heheheeeh!~

@2201 = ~Meh... keep it, it's all yours.~

@2213 = ~(Imoen frowns and huffs.)~
@2214 = ~Hmpf... sorry for playing a little joke!~
@2215 = ~Go back to your serious and all important life then... jerk! (She tosses the ring at you.)~

@2217 = ~Blah...~
@2218 = ~Huh?? I stole nuthin' from you, ar'ya crazy or what?~
@2219 = ~... huh? how did I do... what?~

@2225 = ~Whoa what got into you??~
@2226 = ~Acks, you startled me! what's the problem *now*?~

@2228 = ~(Imoen removes herself from your 'vital space' as fast as she can.)~
@2229 = ~Whoa easy there! Gee, we're touchy today, aren't we?~
@2230 = ~Alright, I'll leave you alone...~
@2231 = ~(Dammit it didn't work...)~
@2232 = ~Something *slimy* just tried to wrap itself around my ankle!!~
@2233 = ~(Imoen is still clinging to you. She must have been startled pretty badly... she pushes her body tightly against yours.)~
@2234 = ~(In fact at this close distance you can feel her heart beating rather fast, her breath ostensibly accelerated by the shock she had.)~
@2235 = ~Well it doesn't seem to be there anymore... guess you're safe now.~
@2236 = ~Imoen... (You take advantage of the situation and kiss her lovingly.)~
@2237 = ~Imoen... (you take advantage of the situation and take her lips by surprise with a kiss.)~
@2238 = ~You know, you are cute when you act childish like this...~
@2239 = ~... and had you to jump all over me?~
@2240 = ~Maybe it was a snake!! I LOVE snakes!! (Put her down and throw yourself to the ground looking for it.)~
@2241 = ~Well get OFF me already!~
@2242 = ~(You make her lips meet yours in this tight embrace.)~
@2243 = ~(Shocked at first, Imoen can only open her eyes wide as you kiss her, all her muscles tensed... then, she seems to relax to a degree as your sublime kiss makes her eyes slowly close; before she realizes what she is doing, she is giving it back to you...)~
@2244 = ~(However, when your lips finally move apart she doesn't seem very comfortable with what you just did... she looks at you with confusion, her face completely flushed.)~
@2245 = ~Uh, <CHARNAME>... why... ah, why did ya do that?~
@2246 = ~Huh? Because I love you, Imoen, you should know that already...!~
@2247 = ~(You just lean towards her again for another kiss.)~
@2248 = ~Well you seemed quite upset so I just did something to comfort you... didn't you like it?~
@2249 = ~Don't know... you looked so cute you were too much of a temptation for me...!~
@2250 = ~I never know why I do or don't do things... this shouldn't be different...~
@2251 = ~Because I wanted to. Now shut up and walk.~
@2252 = ~(Shocked by your advances, Imoen's eyes are wide and her muscles are tense... when she realizes what you are doing, she pushes you away.)~
@2253 = ~(She looks at you with a mixture of confusion, anger and disbelief) Wh-- Why in HELL did you do that!?~
@2254 = ~(Lean towards her again to resume the kiss.)~
@2255 = ~What? Whatcha mean 'you love me'??~
@2256 = ~In a <PRO_BROTHERSISTER>ly way!~
@2257 = ~YES, I LOVE YOU!! It isn't that difficult to understand...~
@2258 = ~What!? Something hit your head, are you well, Imoen?? Why ya say that??~
@2259 = ~Ah, y-- yeah, right... if-- if you say so...~
@2260 = ~But better if *ahem* you don't do that again, eh...?~
@2261 = ~In a friendly, <PRO_BROTHERSISTER>ly way!~
@2262 = ~Well that didn't seem very <PRO_BROTHERSISTER>ly to me...! I think you went *WAY* too far for a <PRO_BROTHERSISTER>...!~
@2263 = ~There's confidence between us an' all, but there still *are* some limits, y'know??~
@2264 = ~Why of course, I love you too, <PRO_BROTHERSISTER>, more than my own life! But that doesn't give you the right to *kiss me*, DORK!~
@2265 = ~Uh... but that wasn't wha--~
@2266 = ~(Pout) oh you win... I won't do--~
@2267 = ~Meh, then you should scre--~
@2268 = ~Oh, one last thing...~
@2269 = ~... huh? You just said...~
@2270 = ~(Imoen looks at you and rolls her eyes) Urrgh, forget it! Just *don't do that again*, you hear me??~
@2271 = ~Wow-wow-wow, hold your horses there! (She pushes you away, with considerable force indeed.)~
@2272 = ~Keep those lips away from me you nutty jerk, what's wrong with you?? I'm Imoen, <CHARNAME>, your sister, remember!? Remember cute little Imoen, the one that grew up with you? I'm not one of those harlots you like to look at, get off!~
@2273 = ~Hmpf... trying to kiss me like that, have you gone mad or what?~
@2274 = ~Th-- that's *not* the issue here you nutty jerk, what's wrong with you?? I'm Imoen, <CHARNAME>, remember? Remember cute little Imoen, the one that grew up with you? I'm not one of those harlots you like to look at, get off!~
@2275 = ~Hmpf... kissing me *like that* to 'comfort me'... have you gone mad or what?~
@2276 = ~Well, NO! Are you nuts or what, what's wrong with you?? I'm Imoen, <CHARNAME>, remember? Remember cute little Imoen, the one that grew up with you? I'm not one of those harlots you like to look at, get off!~
@2277 = ~Hmpf... kissing me *like that* to 'comfort me'... have you gone mad or what?~
@2278 = ~Well then get a grip on your hormones, <PRO_MANWOMAN>! You can't go around just kissing people like that... even if they are as incredibly attractive as I am...! (She giggles.)~
@2279 = ~Hmpf... can't blame you though... resisting my charms is no easy task, I know, but guess you'll have to make the effort (She sticks her little tongue out at you.)~
@2280 = ~(Imoen slaps her forehead sarcastically) Oh why, I should have known that, of course... ye've always been some barmy jerk, I should have expected something like that from you, right!?~
@2281 = ~Well then listen here, Mister...! Ya better not do that again, ya hear me? Not unless you want my knee meet your 'inner self', understand? Hmpf...~
@2282 = ~Well then listen here, Miss...! Ya better not do that again, ya hear me? Not unless you want your hair to burst in flames, understand? Hmpf...~
@2283 = ~(Imoen raises an eyebrow, looking at you disgustedly. She must be picturing the word 'JERK' printed right in the middle of your forehead.)~
@2284 = ~Oh alright Master, whatever you wish. Hey, want me to walk around completely nude? You could abuse me even easier then, dontcha think?~
@2285 = ~No, wait, wait, I have a better offer for ya: why don't you go eat some roaches, hmm? I don't think cannibalism is a problem for a brutish degenerate such as you!~
@2286 = ~(She takes the belt she has around her waist and hands it to you.)~
@2287 = ~Here, take your stupid girdle back you moron... (Imoen leaves you standing there with *your* girdle of giant strength in one of your hands, instead of on your waist where it should be...)~
@2288 = ~Here, take your girdle back by the way... (Imoen can't help but smile as she leaves you standing there with *your* girdle of giant strength in one of your hands, instead of on your waist where it should be...)~
@2289 = ~Yeah, well, uhh... (Imoen points to some random place) I think it went in that direction...~
@2290 = ~Well ya happened to be in my way when I jumped, heheh...~
@2291 = ~(She steps away leaving you standing there with an eyebrow raised...)~
@2292 = ~I already knew that, mind you... (She winks at you) I *always* look cute!~
@2293 = ~(She steps away leaving you standing there with a smile on your lips.)~
@2294 = ~(Despite her initial surprise, she welcomes your kiss gladly, moaning with pleasure.)~
@2295 = ~(Your lips move apart with a loud noise) Mmh... That was nice...~
@2296 = ~(She moves away from you, leaving you standing there with an absent smile on your lips.)~
@2297 = ~Yeah I guess, heh...~
@2298 = ~(She steps away, leaving you standing there with an eyebrow raised...)~
@2299 = ~(Something is amiss...)~
@2300 = ~Hahahahaaah, hey, look how strong I am now! I'm sure I can defend myself from that "slimy thing" now, heheeeh!~
@2301 = ~Oh, but <CHARNAME>, ya look upset... did ya lose something? Can I help ya find it??~
@2302 = ~Hehee, make me! Let's see who's stronger now, I challenge ya to arm-wrestling!~
@2303 = ~Imoen!!!~
@2304 = ~I'm serious here, give it back...~
@2305 = ~Alright, bring it on!!~
@2306 = ~Uh... you better keep it, I don't think I'd be able to win that...~
@2307 = ~Argh, I hate you, keep the damn belt if you want it!!~
@2308 = ~Oh, c'mon, I was just kiddin' the whole time!~
@2309 = ~Ar'ya sure you wouldn't like better this dandy, flashy 'Girdle of Bluntness'?~
@2310 = ~(She only laughs when you glare at her) heheh, I was only poking a little fun at you, <CHARNAME>, c'mon...!~
@2311 = ~... some joking from time to time won't kill ya! Here ya go. See? Everything's fine now.~
@2312 = ~(She winks at you as you put the girdle around your waist again.)~
@2313 = ~(Indeed, some things will never change...)~
@2314 = ~A little bit, truth be told...~
@2315 = ~(As you wonder why she has suddenly brought this topic up, you notice that you feel somewhat... weaker.)~
@2316 = ~(A weird suspicion begins to grow in the back of your mind. You look down at the hand she had been holding...)~
@2317 = ~(... your ring of Gaxx is gone...)~
@2318 = ~(...and with a sigh you notice it is now on Imoen's ring finger.)~
@2319 = ~(Looking at her, you realize you are going to have a hard time getting the ring back...)~
@2320 = ~(Some things never change...)~
@2321 = ~(After arguing for some time, giving all the arguments you can think of except the "because I'll burst your head if you don't give it back" one, she concedes and gives it to you.)~
@2322 = ~(with a frown, you put the ring on your finger again...)~
@2323 = ~(... only to find it's a poor imitation of the original.)~
@2324 = ~(You sigh and roll your eyes. She bursts into laughter... *again*.)~
@2325 = ~(This time it's the real one... you don it as she goes on laughing.)~
@2326 = ~(Glaring at her, you resume your travels.)~
@2327 = ~(You look for the snake for a while, until you realize it's not there and then look back at Imoen.)~
@2328 = ~(She looks different somehow...)~
@2329 = ~(Imoen has a girdle around her waist you hadn't seen on her before; a thick girdle that you seem to recall seeing somewhere before.)~
@2330 = ~(You suddenly become aware that your pack seems much heavier, so much so that you can barely move. You look at your own waist, where a Girdle of Giant Strength should be resting...)~
@2331 = ~(And are not at all surprised to find that it is gone. Gone directly to Imoen's waist. Following your eyes, Imoen bursts out laughing... *at you*.)~
@2332 = ~(You just stare at her with your lips pursed...)~
@2333 = ~(You now recall that she used to fool you like this back in Candlekeep when she got bored --which happened quite often...)~
@2334 = ~Heh, alright, Imoen, you got me... could you *please* hand it back now...?~
@2335 = ~Imoen... do you ever get tired of this? Because *I* do...~
@2336 = ~Give my girdle back RIGHT NOW!!~
@2337 = ~Argh, will I never learn!? Next time you won't get me...~
@2338 = ~Fine, just keep it... I'm tired of this.~
@2339 = ~Wow, <CHARNAME>... I've been counting a little here...~
@2340 = ~I do! Well, almost... there are times that I feel my words are just being typed by some sad guy behind a screen, and I don't even know what "type" or "screen" means, so I *do* have my doubts about this!~
@2341 = ~We are rich! We have over 30.000 gold pieces! And I thought 20.000 was a huge amount of money...~
@2342 = ~It's no wonder you were so carefree in your spending while trying to get to Spellhold...~
@2343 = ~We earn cash in no time... and could burn it even faster! We might turn into snobs if we aren't careful enough (She chuckles.)~
@2344 = ~Actually, at that time it really was a huge amount of money...~
@2345 = ~Yeah, adventuring can be so lucrative... guess that's why people keep getting waylaid on the road for a few dirty coins...~
@2346 = ~Imoen, there was no need to 'count', I know perfectly well how much we have, you just had to ask...~
@2347 = ~What do you have against snobbish people? I don't like those prejudices of yours...~
@2348 = ~That quantity is more or less the price of the Robe of Vecna we have, Imoen.~
@2349 = ~That quantity more or less is what cost to purchase the Robe of Vecna you are wearing, Imoen...~
@2350 = ~Money... money is great, you can buy things with it... I love money... don't touch my money again!~
@2351 = ~Argh, will you never SHUT YOUR MOUTH!??~
@2352 = ~(Imoen looks at you quizzically, not understanding why are you so upset.)~
@2353 = ~<CHARNAME>, what's your problem? I was only... don't know, being friendly to you.~
@2354 = ~THAT is what I DON'T LIKE!!~
@2355 = ~Well, it's just that I don't like people talking to me.~
@2356 = ~Imoen, do I seem the sort of <PRO_MANWOMAN> that likes friends?~
@2357 = ~Sorry Imoen, it's just that... I'm not in the mood, I'm too stressed out right now. Please accept my apologies.~
@2358 = ~Oh, alright, alright. Guess it's difficult to be you.~
@2359 = ~(She sighs) Let's just continue on in silence, then...~
@2360 = ~Hmpf... guess not. You should, if you ask me. But that's something you won't do, right?~
@2361 = ~(She sighs) Let's just continue on in silence, then... it's quite sad that you think like that.~
@2362 = ~And you say it *now*?  Ya could have saved me a lot of time had you told me that before.~
@2363 = ~(When she thinks you're not looking she makes funny faces at you.)~
@2364 = ~(When she thinks you're not looking she makes funny faces at you; then, she looks at Aerie with a mischievous smile in her face.)~
@2365 = ~Whoa, you're having a bad day huh? There's no need to unleash your frustrations on me y'know?~
@2366 = ~(When she thinks you're not looking, she makes funny faces at you; then, she looks at Aerie with a mischievous smile in her face.)~
@2367 = ~(When she thinks you're not looking, she makes funny faces at you.)~
@2368 = ~Hahah, ya nutty tart, sure, don't worry, I won't be touchin' it again...~
@2369 = ~Yer a queer fellow, y'know that...?~
@2370 = ~Not that I mind 'bout it, heh...~
@2371 = ~(Imoen rolls her eyes) It was just a comment, <CHARNAME>. If everyone took everything I said seriously ... well, I'd rule the world!~
@2372 = ~Ehhm, no, forget I said that... (be more careful, Imoen, your master plan can't be exposed yet!)~
@2373 = ~(She approaches Edwin and elbows him in the ribcage with fake complicity, whispering to him.)~
@2374 = ~Psst, hey Edwin, how was that, did I do it well enough?~
@2375 = ~As cute as ever, Edwin!~
@2376 = ~No shit! Really? Wow, we have equipment worth a little keep of our own...!~
@2377 = ~But hey, how come I'm not wearing it!? I'm the one that deserves it most! I'm gonna be an archmage soon, so I'll need proper equipment!~
@2378 = ~No fair, ya always keep the best for yourself!~
@2379 = ~Well I think it's best for the good of the group...~
@2380 = ~I like being powerful, mind you...~
@2381 = ~That's because I AM the leader, Imoen.~
@2382 = ~I just like how it fits me. I look great in it!~
@2383 = ~(She looks at the person who is wearing it) No offense intended, heh...~
@2384 = ~Oh well...~
@2385 = ~Guess I'll have to be more careful with it, heheh... look it has a little stain here... I'll have it clean in no time!~
@2386 = ~... and miss the opportunity to count ALL THAT money by myself?? Hah, not a chance!~
@2387 = ~Yeah, well... that ambition of yours... guess that's why people keep getting waylaid on the road for some dirty coins...~
@2388 = ~Well, you should know that is more or less what the Robe of Vecna we have cost us, Imoen.~
@2389 = ~Well, you should know that is more or less what the Robe of Vecna you are wearing cost us, Imoen...~
@2390 = ~YEAH, money... money is great, you can buy things with it... I love money... don't touch my money again!~
@2391 = ~Sounds good to me.~
@2392 = ~Hah, 'dirty coins'... I'm sure if it wasn't for coins like this we'd be using wooden clubs and butter knives!~
@2393 = ~I guess so... heh, remember when we left Candlekeep? A hundred gold pieces was a *fortune*!~
@2394 = ~But seriously now... isn't this too much money just for us?~
@2395 = ~I don't have a problem at all with being rich, mind you, but, well... I can't help feeling a little guilty.~
@2396 = ~True enough, but we need this money, not only for the equipment, but for emergencies. What if we need to bribe someone powerful, or something like that?~
@2397 = ~Well I always try to give some coins to the beggars whenever I can...~
@2398 = ~Yeah, but I tell that feeling to shut up with a brand new magic ring now and then.~
@2399 = ~Guilty?? Just what does that mean?? Did you make that word up, Imoen!?~
@2400 = ~Hmm... maybe you're right...~
@2401 = ~*You* maybe. Not me, that's for sure.~
@2402 = ~(She rolls her eyes) Alright, I get the idea... but just think of all the lives that would be improved with only a tenth of what we have...~
@2403 = ~Ohh, I'm beginning to sound like Nalia here...~
@2404 = ~But guess we need it after all...~
@2405 = ~Yeah, just think of all the lives that would be improved with only a tenth of what we have...~
@2406 = ~Yeah but I find that's not really enough... thinking of all the lives that would be improved forever with only a tenth of what we have...~
@2407 = ~You've got a point there... but I just can't help but think of all the lives that would be better off forever with only a tenth of what we have...~
@2408 = ~Hey, what's this in my pocket?~
@2409 = ~A gold piece! <CHARNAME>, another one for the 'collection'...!~
@2410 = ~And hey, what's this little thing in this little bag? Another gold piece!~
@2411 = ~And this in my backpack? Wait, wait, lemme guess... a GOLD PIECE! and it's with many, many others!~
@2412 = ~heheh, yeah, there's lot of them around here...~
@2413 = ~Imoen, are you trying to say something or...?~
@2414 = ~Alright, what got into you now?~
@2415 = ~Yeah, how surprising. Now *stop talking* and WALK!~
@2416 = ~(Imoen just rolls her eyes.)~
@2417 = ~Oh, oh, excuse me, Mister 'I-don't-like-people'. Won't bother you again...~
@2418 = ~(She mumbles something about your head that doesn't sound very nice.)~
@2419 = ~(Imoen just rolls eyes.)~
@2420 = ~Oh, oh, excuse me, Miss 'I-don't-like-people'. Won't bother you again...~
@2421 = ~Well, that we have *so much* money we could forget about everything and retire to a life of luxuries!~
@2422 = ~Hmm, guess our souls would have something to say to that, but anyway...~
@2423 = ~Right you are! Around 60.000 gold pieces, that's a whole load of CASH!~
@2424 = ~We have *so much* money we could forget about everything and retire to a life of luxuries!~
@2425 = ~At least let's burn through some of this money and throw a hell of a wild party!!~
@2426 = ~Uhh... Imoen, I don't think that'd be very... appropriate, y'know?~
@2427 = ~Are you crazy or what?? You know what we're up against? There's no time for stupid 'parties'!~
@2428 = ~YEAH let's DO IT!!~
@2429 = ~Hmmm... don't know...~
@2430 = ~Gee, I *know* that, you moron...! I was just kiddin'!~
@2431 = ~Hahah, don't trouble yourself, I was only kiddin', <CHARNAME>!~
@2432 = ~I hope you buy me something *nice* with all that money though... It's useless if you don't spend it, you know that?~
@2433 = ~(Slap your forehead acting dumb) Hey, you sure of that? I thought it's only mission was to be shiny... (Roll your eyes.)~
@2434 = ~(Thoughts of Imoen clad in a tight-fitting, extremely low-cut leopard fur bodice spring to mind.) Heh, what if I buy you...~
@2435 = ~Point for you...~
@2436 = ~Actually, I enjoy having a lot of money.~
@2437 = ~And you know that I can hire some mercenaries with that money only to make sure you won't open your mouth again?~
@2438 = ~Imoen... just shut up, will you?~
@2439 = ~(Imoen simply sticks her tongue out to you.)~
@2440 = ~You said it...!~
@2441 = ~(She purses her lips, expressing her disappointment.)~
@2442 = ~Hmpf... you'll never cease to amaze me, <CHARNAME>...~
@2443 = ~That was *not* a compliment...~
@2444 = ~(You tell her about the... 'outfit' you have in mind and what you plan to do to her while she is wearing it. Her eyes open wider and wider, but she can't help a mischievous giggle.)~
@2445 = ~(She slaps you on your arm, pretending to be upset.) Now *that's* nasty, <CHARNAME>! You're such a pervert!!~
@2446 = ~(However the smile and wink she throws at you afterwards makes you think that she actually liked the idea...)~
@2447 = ~Now that's too much!!~
@2448 = ~My gold bag actually *burst*! The dream of every nobleman come true...~
@2449 = ~And that's not all; there are *so many* coins in my backpack I can barely manage to put in the other things I really need!~
@2450 = ~Y'know, I'm tired of this situation, we've come to a point where gold only weighs us down!~
@2451 = ~Donate it to some orphanage, throw it away gambling, buy the ultimate weapon of all time, just get rid of some of it!~
@2452 = ~You know Imoen, you are right. I'll leave a good part of it in the next Lathander temple we visit.~
@2453 = ~You know Imoen, you're right. Let's go to the nearest tavern and see if we can do some gambling!~
@2454 = ~You know Imoen, you're right... let's get the best equipment money can buy for all of us!~
@2455 = ~Hmmm, don't know. What if we find something really expensive we need no matter what the cost?~
@2456 = ~Nope, I plainly disagree. It can come in handy anytime.~
@2457 = ~NO!! My money, it's all MINE!! Mine, mine, mine... my money... yes, all is mine...~
@2458 = ~Huh??~
@2459 = ~WHY DON'T YOU SHUT YOUR PIE HOLE, IMOEN!!~
@2460 = ~Uh, I meant, there's no way of solving it, so let's go on...~
@2461 = ~(She jumps, startled by your shouting.)~
@2462 = ~What got into you, <CHARNAME>?? Cantcha act civilized for once in your life!?~
@2463 = ~Tell you what, forget about it. Reasoning with you is like trying to reason with a Gully Dwarf, only worse...~
@2464 = ~W-whoa! You're one of those money-obsessed *jerks*, arentcha?~
@2465 = ~Oh, fine then, but *you* carry it... (With a low grunt, she takes her backpack and throws it at you) ... by yourself!~
@2466 = ~(You catch the pack in mid air, but it's so heavy your arm is nearly wrenched out of its socket and you stagger back, thrown off balance.)~
@2467 = ~(Maybe she was right after all...)~
@2468 = ~Now that's something I wanted to hear...!~
@2469 = ~(Nalia smiles kindly) None taken, Imoen.~
@2470 = ~Hehehee, how could I be offended by that?~
@2471 = ~I would never be offended by you, "Immy"!~
@2472 = ~(You hear the sound of some coins falling to the ground.)~
@2473 = ~(Looking back, you see coins scattered all around Imoen. She holds a torn bag in her right hand.)~
@2474 = ~I fully agree. Let's donate it to the less fortunate; give it to the homeless and the poor that have nothing to begin with.~
@2475 = ~(Aerie whispers to her) heheheeh, oh Imoen you're terrible...~
@2476 = ~That's right, we don't need all this money...! Let's put it to good use and help some noble cause!~
@2477 = ~Accumulating money for no purpose is one of the worst mistakes we can make in this life, my friend. Let others use what you do not need.~
@2478 = ~No one's gonna touch me bloody money I say! Try it an' I'll cut yer throat open!~
@2479 = ~W-what are you talking about, girl!? Go talk a tree to death or something and leave me be!~
@2480 = ~(Stupid primates, they think they can address me like that...)~
@2481 = ~(One day... one day, they will learn!)~
@2482 = ~Ignore the twit, <CHARNAME>. Obviously she cannot understand the power of wealth.~
@2483 = ~Nau, never! Why give those wretches something that they cannot get by themselves? Use it for you and the group!~
@2484 = ~You really took your time coming to rescue me, didn't ya?~ [MRImRom1]
@2485 = ~Don't misunderstand <CHARNAME>, I'm grateful and all that but it seemed like eternity "waiting" for you to arrive...~
@2486 = ~But I guess the horrible torture had something to do with that, hmm?~
@2487 = ~Horrible torture!? What did that bastard put you through!?~
@2488 = ~Well, I didn't even know *where* to start looking for you; I had to pay 20,000 gold pieces to find out that you were imprisoned in Spellhold and to charter a boat to get to the island... Remember, we didn't have any money when we escaped from Irenicus' dungeon...~
@2489 = ~Look Imoen, just because I can't afford to lose your thieving skills and magic abilities, doesn't mean I couldn't easily lose your annoying personality... so, pretty, pretty please with sugar on top, SHUT UP.~
@2490 = ~'Rescuing you'? I came in search of Irenicus and nothing more. But since you were here too, I decided I could make use of you...~
@2491 = ~It's a long story and we don't really have much time, so we'll talk about it later, alright?~
@2492 = ~(A pained look flashes across Imoen's face but is quickly replaced by a stone cold glare. She snorts at you derisively.)~
@2493 = ~Hmpf, fine then. I'll take my personality to where it's appreciated; I'll limit my conversation to 'Yes <PRO_SIRMAAM>' and 'Of course, master', that's how you like it, right?~
@2494 = ~(Asshole.)~
@2495 = ~(Imoen looks really hurt by your words) So... I'm nothing more than a tool to you? What about everything we did together when we were younger, doesn't any of that matter to you?~
@2496 = ~You have changed, <CHARNAME>... I'll go on helping you, but don't expect me to be your... friend... anymore.~
@2497 = ~Oh... (she shrugs) alrighty then.~
@2498 = ~Don't look at me like that, it was nothing really... and *ahem* I'd prefer not to talk 'bout that right now, y'know...?~
@2499 = ~I'm well and safe now and that's all that matters to me...~
@2500 = ~So will you answer my question or will you keep looking at me with those eyes all day?~
@2501 = ~Well, I didn't even know *where* to start looking for you, and just to find out that you were in Spellhold, and get a boat to take us to the island, cost 20,000 gold pieces... I didn't have anything near to that in my possession when we left Irenicus' dungeon...~
@2502 = ~WOW, 20,000 Gold Pieces?? Where didya get all that cash??~
@2503 = ~I don't know, the common things we did to get money... Cleansed a stronghold from a plague of trolls, performed good deeds for the local church, purified some defiled temple, those sorts of things.~
@2504 = ~(Lie) Don't know, the common things we did to get money... Cleansed a stronghold from a plague of trolls, perform good deeds for the local church, purify some defiled temple, those sorts of things.~
@2505 = ~I don't know, the common things we did to get money... helped the harpers administer justice, aided the druids in maintaining balance in a regional grove, reestablished the natural order in the forest for some local government, those sorts of things.~
@2506 = ~(Lie) I don't know, the common things we did to get money... helped the harpers administer justice, aided the druids in maintaining balance in a regional grove, reestablished the natural order in the forest for some local government, those sorts of things.~
@2507 = ~I Don't know, let's see... I killed and robbed some people, slaughtered and pillaged entire villages, did the dirty work for those who pay well enough, those sorts of things... ~
@2508 = ~Bah, the usual way! By selling fatty children to goblin encampments, kidnapping dogs and demanding a ransom for their return, eviscerating squirrels and selling their innards, cleaning golden pantaloons for noblemen, that sort of thing.~
@2509 = ~C'mon, you don't need to concern yourself about those things, just know that I got all of it.~
@2510 = ~It's none of your concern. Shut up and mind your own business, *for once*.~
@2511 = ~Hmm... that doesn't sound much like you... guess you got paid well for that...~
@2512 = ~Knowing you did that to raise money to save me is quite... disturbing.~
@2513 = ~If you'll excuse me...~
@2514 = ~(Imoen moves away from you mumbling something about an 'evil bastard'.)~
@2515 = ~Eww I hope that's a joke, it sounds so stupid, so crazy and so *disgusting* I think I'm gonna puke!~
@2516 = ~No need to wonder how you got inside Spellhold... if you're able to think of such *ridiculous* things to earn money it wasn't difficult for you to appear completely nuts to those cowled wizards...~
@2517 = ~Haha, always trying to keep that 'balance' thing... that's good to hear, <CHARNAME>.~
@2518 = ~(Imoen smiles) Hehe, that's the old <CHARNAME>, the good and righteous good-doer. It's good to hear that (She winks at you.)~
@2519 = ~Okay but... how did you get into Spellhold then?~
@2520 = ~Minsc did the trick. He... uh... 'convinced' the pirate lord that it was better for everyone if he granted us some accommodations here...~
@2521 = ~I acted completely nuts so the Pirate Lord would send us here...~
@2522 = ~I got some sort of ward stone from a cowled wizard to open the main door and fought my way here... but Irenicus was disguised and captured me...~
@2523 = ~Umm... I think it's better if you didn't know...~
@2524 = ~Well, you know, I'd like to tell you but we really don't have time to spare...~
@2525 = ~Uh oh, that sounds like you were up to no good! ... (She clings on your arm) pray tell!!~
@2526 = ~(She giggles as you glare at her) Don't worry, I won't insist...!~
@2527 = ~Oh well, you made it in, that's what matters I guess...~
@2528 = ~Hahahahah, I see, I understand... sure he showed him his 'Miniature Giant Space Hamster', right?~
@2529 = ~Of course, Minsc, of course, your little hamster is much more clever than that dumb Pirate Lord...!~
@2530 = ~<CHARNAME>...~
@2531 = ~Hahahah, I'd have just *loved* to see ya in that situation!~
@2532 = ~Heheh, saying something like 'Mister Mean Pirate, my mother tells me I should always turn things over in my mind, but I don't know how to stand on my head! Willya help me find my books!? People tell me I'm illiterate but I know who my parents are... Oooo, I'd like you to meet my imaginary friend! It's a pink golem but he prefers to think of himself as Red!!' ... heh, or something like that, I don't really know...~
@2533 = ~Wow... guess that wasn't too easy, right...? It seems strange that Irenicus disguised himself though... I wouldn't say it's his style at all...~
@2534 = ~(Her expression has changed from amusement to a mixture of affection, surprise and gratitude.)~
@2535 = ~You know... I can't believe you did all that just to rescue me... I knew you cared for me but... all this?~
@2536 = ~I... I didn't know I was so... appreciated...~
@2537 = ~I couldn't stand the idea of you being imprisoned somewhere far away from me, Imoen. You mean... too much to me.~
@2538 = ~We've known each other since we were children, it's the least I could do!~
@2539 = ~Well, it wasn't just you, but Irenicus as well...~
@2540 = ~Your abilities were too valuable to lose, Imoen.~
@2541 = ~*You*?? I came for Irenicus, fool. You mean nothing! I wanted revenge, and I shall have it yet!!~
@2542 = ~You belong to me, and I don't take kindly having my belongings stolen from me. Hmmm... maybe I will have to put a collar on you... huh? Where are my slippers? Bring them or be punished, pet!~
@2543 = ~What??~
@2544 = ~Sometimes I wonder what the hell goes on inside your head... it must be a non-stop party! You're completely nuts!~
@2545 = ~What if I move away from you... slowly...? No harm done, see? Everyone is happy here...~
@2546 = ~(To herself) Whew... that was quite an experience...~
@2547 = ~(It's obvious you have hurt Imoen's feelings badly.) Ah, is that so? Our childhood mattered nothing to you then, right? Fine... I hope you achieve your revenge, <CHARNAME>~
@2548 = ~Paranoid bastard...~
@2549 = ~But of course, of course, I'm not that self-centered, hah...~
@2550 = ~Glad you came anyway, <CHARNAME>.~
@2551 = ~True thing indeed! (she giggles) thanks for rescuing me, <CHARNAME>...~
@2552 = ~You... you really mean that...? (Imoen's smile is so genuine and her eyes are so bright that you can't help but feel happier yourself.)~
@2553 = ~Thank you <CHARNAME>... for coming... and for your kind words. I really needed something like that, you know...?~
@2554 = ~(She sighs) Let's go on, eh?~
@2555 = ~(The light in Imoen's eyes fade) Yeah... I'm quite powerful, ain't I? heheh...~
@2556 = ~Let's go... I'm sure I can serve you well, <PRO_SIRMAAM>... uh, I mean, <CHARNAME>.~
@2557 = ~<CHARNAME>, do you have a few minutes to spare?~
@2558 = ~Of course.~
@2559 = ~To tell the truth, no... maybe some other time, all right?~
@2560 = ~Not for you.~
@2561 = ~I wanna pee.~
@2562 = ~Uh... right...~
@2563 = ~Now I'm gonna walk away from you slowly, eh?~
@2564 = ~(Crazy sod...!)~
@2565 = ~Sheesh, what did I do wrong, did I breathe your air or something?~
@2566 = ~What a moron...~
@2567 = ~Good...~ [MRImRom1]
@2568 = ~Earlier you asked about what Irenicus put me through... forcing some... memories... to stir in my mind yet again...~
@2569 = ~So... if-- if you still wanna know 'bout it...~
@2570 = ~It will be difficult to hear but I agree with you. Please go on.~
@2571 = ~Yeah I'm up for some torture lessons! Bring it on, is there much blood?~
@2572 = ~I'm not as morbid as you to like hearing of that, Imoen. Forget it.~
@2573 = ~I wanna poo!~
@2574 = ~Good...~
@2575 = ~You know, there's... there's some stuff I didn't say when I mentioned my 'stay' in Spellhold...~
/* @5108 goes here */
@2576 = ~And I've come to think that it'd be better for me if I shared it.~ // not used anymore
@2577 = ~So... *ahem* If you wanna know 'bout it...~ // not used anymore
@2578 = ~(Mad I tell you...!)~
@2579 = ~Agh, you're sick, did you know that? Hmpf, anyway...~
@2580 = ~Alright...~
@2581 = ~I don't know how or where to begin... it's not an easy thing to talk about.~
@2582 = ~(Imoen takes another deep breath, running her hand through her hair to wipe it out of her face. Her hand trembles slightly; you can see she is trying to collect herself so she'll be able to start.)~
@2583 = ~(Her voice quivers subtly as she begins to speak) Irenicus took my very soul from me, you already know that... but to do so, he had to shatter it into pieces first...~
@2584 = ~And to tear down my soul... first he had to tear down my body...~
@2585 = ~As soon as he established his supremacy in Spellhold, his 'experiments' picked up right where he left off in his sewer dungeon. I don't know how much time I spent in his *claws* for experimentation, but it sure as hell seemed like an eternity.~
@2586 = ~It all is blurred inside my head. I remember fragments, vague moments... but at the same time I remember all of it with horrible clarity... I-- I don't really know how to explain it.~
@2587 = ~At first, it wasn't very rough. It hurt of course, but I could stand it without screaming in pain...~
@2588 = ~After these first... 'attempts'... he found that I was more resistant than he first thought...~
@2589 = ~... so, then... it got worse... incredibly worse...~
@2590 = ~(Look at her compassionately.)~
@2591 = ~(Say and do nothing, waiting for her to continue.)~
@2592 = ~Imoen, please stop... I'm really sorry for you but this is making me quite sick... please don't talk about it again, alright?~
@2593 = ~Yes, whatever. Cut it out already, I didn't think it'd get so depressing.~
@2594 = ~(She stares at you in disbelief. It's obvious that what Imoen is trying to tell affects her very deeply, and to hear that from you hurts her... badly.)~
@2595 = ~(She spits her words at you, ice in her eyes, ice in her voice) You, you heartless BASTARD! Don't worry <CHARNAME>, I won't bother you again, I promise!!~
@2596 = ~I... (she looks hurt at first, but finally nods) All right... I understand you, you don't need my problems worrying you right now, <CHARNAME>. Just don't worry about me, I'll be fine...~
@2597 = ~(She moves away from you. When you glance at her, you see a silent tear run down Imoen's cheek, but she quickly wipes it away.)~
@2598 = ~He said that pain was necessary to unleash the power within me. He wanted me to understand... but all I ever wanted was the pain to go away...~
@2599 = ~I wanted to die...~
@2600 = ~In a lucid moment I attempted suicide by holding my breath... I was too weak to try any other thing, and had nothing I could use. But... I just fell unconscious.~
@2601 = ~I remember... knives... (She shudders involuntarily and swallows hard.)~
@2602 = ~And then there were the spells. He... he used every spell I ever knew, and many others I just couldn't describe... I felt rotting inside, I felt my skin torn by myriads of blades just to close up again... no marks, no blisters. Only pain...~
@2603 = ~I saw my body fall from decay and disease, I felt how my brain was cracked like a nut, split open by his magic, in search of something I didn't understand...~
@2604 = ~I died a thousand times without dying at all. And he forced me to stay conscious, using magic if necessary... so I would be fully aware of the pain.~
@2605 = ~... he didn't seem to rest at all... every day, every single day... (Imoen pauses; tears have welled up in her eyes, but she's not crying yet.)~
@2606 = ~Sometimes, he left me to rot in a gloomy mossy cell while he attended to other matters... it-- it wasn't any better...~
/* Continues in 5109, comes back in 5113 */
@2607 = ~He wasn't alone; he had brought along one of those horrible duergar that reeked of wine and excrement. Irenicus stared at me coldly as he said something to the dwarf.~
@2608 = ~Then... he said something to me about... about 'developing the rage within'...~
@2609 = ~(Her words come out of her mouth more and more slowly. Physically Imoen is still weak from the seemingly endless pain and torture she had to endure... recalling these horrid memories nearly overwhelms her.)~
@2610 = ~The duergar approached me... and then he... I-- I felt...~
@2611 = ~(She makes an effort to continue, but in vain.)~
@2612 = ~and then he... he...! (Her voice cracks, her emotions constrict her throat, preventing her from uttering any other word. Imoen cannot hold the tears at bay anymore; as they flood her eyes and fall down her cheeks, she hopelessly relents and throws herself into your arms, unable to control herself any longer.)~ [MRImRom3]
@2613 = ~(You can do nothing but hold her as her sorrow bleeds from her eyes to your chest, her continuous shudders wracking her already trembling body.)~
@2614 = ~(She goes on crying. All the pain she had to suffer, all the agony she has kept to herself is now flowing from her, the delicate barrier that once held them, completely shattered.)~
@2615 = ~(you caress Imoen's head softly and hold her very tightly.)~
@2616 = ~(you do nothing, just hold her so she won't fall to the ground, waiting for her to recover.)~
@2617 = ~(you push her away from you. Feelings are for the weak.)~
@2618 = ~(When you push her back, she crumbles to the ground, her legs unable to keep her standing. For a moment she just looks at you behind a veil of tears, confusion and despair. Then she cries on, heedless to those around her.)~
@2619 = ~(You feel that you have broken a bond between you two that will never be repaired. Perfect. That is what you wanted.)~
@2620 = ~(After a while, Imoen gathers herself enough to stand up. She gives you an icy stare that could put you in your grave, it's intensity only magnified by the tears that still wet her face) This never happened... and will never happen again.~
@2621 = ~(She keeps repeating the same word over and over, sob after wrenching sob, while tears continue to flow from the emptiness where her soul once laid) He... he...!~
@2622 = ~Shhh... Imoen, calm down, please... it's over, it's all over...~
@2623 = ~(Comfort her with your silence.)~
@2624 = ~Gather yourself, child. It's in the past, so let it be!~
@2625 = ~(Wait for her to recover.)~
@2626 = ~Imoen, I don't have the time for this...~
@2627 = ~(Imoen seems to regain her composure just long enough to utter what has been trapped behind her sobs, the words now spilling uncontrollably from her mouth as the tears had done from her eyes.)~
@2628 = ~He... he *raped* me, <CHARNAME>!! Irenicus told that... that MONSTER to rape me, I was defenseless!~
@2629 = ~I could do nothing, just-- just scream and cry as he moved over me, touched me, thrust himself inside me!! I was too weak, and it was too much for me to stand...!~
@2630 = ~I pleaded for death to come to me... but... but it didn't...~
@2631 = ~so I... I became death itself. (Imoen's voice has grown cold; it still wavers a bit, but she is no longer crying.)~
@2632 = ~(Remain silent.)~
@2633 = ~What!?~
@2634 = ~(She looks directly into your eyes) I felt an insuppressible rage burn inside me.~ [MRImRom2]
@2635 = ~and then... it was gone. *Everything* was gone... everything...~
@2636 = ~I awoke the next morning covered in dried blood. There was blood everywhere... and in a corner of the cell, I saw the duergar, or what remained of his corpse, staring at me out of its empty sockets.~
@2637 = ~It was torn to shreds, <CHARNAME>. It had strange marks, like the ones claws would leave... it was partially burned and had many more unidentifiable wounds. It was the only pleasant sight I had in that damned place.~
@2638 = ~Everything fades after that. I remember nothing of what happened from that morning 'til we met up again in the Spellhold 'maze'.~
@2639 = ~I... don't know what to say, Imoen. It's... it's so horrible... I'm really sorry I arrived too late to spare you...~
@2640 = ~I swear I will carve your name in his skin for every scar he put on your body, Imoen. I won't have it any other way.~
@2641 = ~Imoen... I am so sorry... but remember that 'experience is not what you've lived through, but what you've thought and are taught about it'...~
@2642 = ~I can't believe you went through all that... I don't want to be harsh but... we should continue on our travels... you are well now, right?~
@2643 = ~Are you finished already? Good, then let's move on.~
@2644 = ~It doesn't matter anymore... you made it here as fast as you could, it was not your fault.~
@2645 = ~There really wasn't anything you could say... I just wanted to bring it out of me... I-- I just needed someone to listen, it was killing me inside...~
@2646 = ~Of course, don't worry about me (she wipes the tears from her face and eyes, and breaks free from your embrace) let's keep moving!~
@2647 = ~(She wipes out the tears from her face and eyes and breaks free from your embrace) I... hope you do, <CHARNAME>. He deserves that... and much more.~
@2648 = ~Don't worry about me, I'm fine now... (She struggles against her tears but cannot manage a smile.)~
@2649 = ~Let's... let's keep on moving.~
@2650 = ~(She smiles despite her tears) And just what does that mean?~
@2651 = ~That, no matter how much you suffer, if you manage to look at it under the proper light and learn from it, you won't see it like suffering at all, but a step forward towards maturity and wisdom.~
@2652 = ~That if you want to forget about what you've gone through, you must convince yourself that it's just part of the past, or even that it never happened, so it will let you go on with your life.~
@2653 = ~That what you experience, whether good or bad, doesn't matter if you don't think about it and learn from it. Otherwise it will all be in vain and won't contribute to making you a better person.~
@2654 = ~That tomatoes and onions shouldn't be put together. So sayeth the wise Alaundorgh!~
@2655 = ~hahahah ooh you're terrible! (She sniffles, drying some tears with the back of her hand.)~
@2656 = ~Well, At least you made me laugh... thanks, <CHARNAME>.~
@2657 = ~Let's keep on moving, alright...? I feel much better...~
@2658 = ~Umm... that doesn't seem to make any sense at all... it sounds like something you've just invented!~
@2659 = ~(She sniffles, drying some tears with the back of her hand.)~
@2660 = ~Thanks anyway... telling you all that... has been a great relief, <CHARNAME>.~
@2661 = ~You know... (she nods her head sadly, and tries to dry her face) that... that does make sense...~
@2662 = ~But... but I feel that I... I'm not *pure* anymore, <CHARNAME>... I've been... corrupted... the scars... *all* the scars Irenicus gave me...~
@2663 = ~I don't know if I'll be able to live normally after that horrible experience...~
@2664 = ~You must learn to, Imoen... it's the only way possible. Just remember that I'll be always here for you, Imoen. Anything you want, you just have to ask, alright?~
@2665 = ~Well I hope you'll be fine. We've spent too much time already, we should keep on moving.~
@2666 = ~Yeah, well, that's too bad. I don't really care, you've talked so much in so little time that my head hurts.~
@2667 = ~(Imoen is confused by your sudden change of attitude, then narrows her eyes at you.)~
@2668 = ~You couldn't just pretend to be nice, could you? No, you had to spit that at me, you heartless bastard. I thought you cared about your friends, <CHARNAME>.~
@2669 = ~I've been horribly mistaken.~
@2670 = ~Thanks, <CHARNAME>... I'll try as hard as I can, I guess... just telling you this has been a great relief and... you've helped me a lot with your support. Now I feel like... I have some hope to help me start over...~
@2671 = ~(A soft warmth blankets your heart when you see Imoen's smile as she finishes drying her face...)~
@2672 = ~These dreams I had of you...~ [MRImRom1]
@2673 = ~Ah, did I startle you? hahah, sorry, sorry... I didn't mean to...~
@2674 = ~Viconia, I didn't complain the least bit when I saw you in the party, even greeted you as a friend... I have no prejudices for you, I'm not one of your countless 'enemies', so there's no need for you to act like that towards me.~
@2675 = ~Yeah, that's it.~
@2676 = ~Now seriously... <CHARNAME>, there's something I ...*ahem*... omitted when talking about the torture...~
@2677 = ~I mentioned it briefly when you talked about *your* dreams, remember?~
@2678 = ~Yeah, I tried to question you about it but you weren't in the mood... I wondered when you would decide to talk about it.~
@2679 = ~I might... do carry on.~
@2680 = ~Nope. But go on...~
@2681 = ~Imoen, this is not the best moment, you know? We'll talk some other time...~
@2682 = ~There are so many voices inside my head I can't remember what I had for dinner yesterday. No kidding...~
@2683 = ~I hardly ever pay any attention to your pointless blathering, how am I supposed to remember?~
@2684 = ~Imoen, if I had wanted you to speak to me, don't you think I would have asked you to do it? Now *walk* and do not talk.~
@2685 = ~Ha-ha, very funny. Look how much I laugh.~
@2686 = ~(Asshole...)~
@2687 = ~Oh that's just fine, forget about me then! I'll try to tell it to that rock over there, do you think I'll be able to?~
@2688 = ~(Bossy bastard...)~
@2689 = ~Hahahah, hasn't anyone told you yer a fruitcake?? We'll talk later then, when the voices "fade", eh?~
@2690 = ~Oh, umm... I guess I'll wait a little longer then...~
@2691 = ~Oh...~
@2692 = ~I think it's about time for it... 'specially after you told me everything about your dreams...~
@2693 = ~I've become rather obsessed with it, <CHARNAME>, I can't get it out of my head, if I don't tell ya I'll burst... and since I told ya all that other horrible stuff already, it shouldn't be so difficult to tell ya 'bout this other thing now I guess...~
@2694 = ~I mean, there's enough confidence between us to say what I *need to say* without you going mad... right?~
@2695 = ~I am positive there is Imoen. Fear not and speak your mind.~
@2696 = ~I hope there is...~
@2697 = ~(Remain silent expectantly.)~
@2698 = ~Uh-oh... I don't really like the sound of this, better if you just keep it to yourself.~
@2699 = ~Go pester someone else, Imoen! I grow tired of your endless, morbid ramblings and confessions!~
@2700 = ~(She narrows her eyes.) I thought I could trust you. Obviously I've been horribly mistaken.~
@2701 = ~Won't bother you again, don't worry.~
@2702 = ~Oh... so it's like that... (She sighs) Alright, I thought you would understand... I was wrong it seems...~
@2703 = ~It's about how you helped me during the... torture...~
@2704 = ~I told ya I had dreamt of you, right? That you eased my pain and... y'know, all that...~
@2705 = ~But I didn't tell you *how* you did it... *ahem*...~
@2706 = ~You... ah, I... (Imoen avoids your gaze. She seems incredibly uneasy about what she feels she must tell you, and her face is completely flushed despite her efforts to maintain her composure.)~
@2707 = ~There's no reason to be embarrassed Imoen... the sooner you say it the better you'll feel afterwards... I assure you I will understand.~
@2708 = ~(Patiently wait for her to continue.)~
@2709 = ~C'mon Imoen spit it out, we haven't got all day.~
@2710 = ~It's alright, you don't have to talk right now if you don't want to. Let's move on then...~
@2711 = ~Imoen, I tire of your insecurity. Let it be and don't bother me with that stupid thing again.~
@2712 = ~N-No I do want to tell but... it's so embarrassing...~
@2713 = ~Hmpf! Can't you see I'm having a hard time here, that it's very difficult for me?? If you can't understand that, better we just go on and forget all 'bout this.~
@2714 = ~Move out! It doesn't matter anymore, and we haven't got all day.~
@2715 = ~Well, umm... let's say that you... err...~
@2716 = ~Imoen, there's no reason to be embarrassed, really... the sooner you say it the better you'll feel. I will understand whatever it is, don't worry!~
@2717 = ~(Wait a little more.)~
@2718 = ~Agh, cut it out and speak, you unnerving little girl!!~
@2719 = ~I'm out of patience. Your babbling is infuriating. Shut up and get moving.~
@2720 = ~You know, you were... and then I... umm... it was like... (It seems that she can go on like this forever. Waiting is wasting time.)~
@2721 = ~IMOEN. I. Will. Understand. Please, just tell me!~
@2722 = ~SPIT IT OUT!!~
@2723 = ~You know? I'm tired of you and your stammering. Move or rot here, but just stop babbling.~
@2724 = ~I know but... it's so embarrassing!~
@2725 = ~(Imoen takes a deep breath) So... in those dreams... umm... they started in a verdant forest. They --The dreams, not the forest, that was always the same-- were always alike, but never the same...~
@2726 = ~(Judging from the way she speaks, you can tell Imoen is extremely nervous.)~
@2727 = ~I laid on the floor --well not 'floor', but turf...-- my body ached all over from the horrible wounds... did I tell you of the wounds? Yeah I did...~ [MRImRom5]
@2728 = ~There, agonizing on the turf --heh I said it right this time, you see?-- I always saw a figure emerging from the underbrush...~
@2729 = ~As it approached, I realized it was... you... --well it would be quite stupid of me talking about this if it weren't you right?~
@2730 = ~As I watched you come closer --you always looked great by the way...-- I felt so relieved, such an incredible feeling of hope and warmth in my heart...~
@2731 = ~This feeling... --well, *these* feelings, since there were two, right?-- *felt* more intense, more real than anything I've ever felt in my life...~
@2732 = ~Well you... you approached me... and knelt beside me, smiling at me... and then, without uttering a word, you embraced me and held me very tight...~
@2733 = ~(You notice her tension is fading gradually as she immerses herself inside her memories.)~
@2734 = ~You held me and then... and then I broke down and cried... I cried and cried endlessly... l-like the last time when we talked...~
@2735 = ~All the pain faded, the wounds completely healed by your essence...~
@2736 = ~Then you helped me to my feet, and we stood together in this tight embrace, surrounded by trees and the peaceful sounds of the forest.~
@2737 = ~... I went on crying in your arms, feeling my sorrow go away as you... you caressed my hair, and face, and... skin...~
@2738 = ~And then... ah...~
@2739 = ~it... it all ended, and I awoke in that crude little cell, hopeless and wounded again... but with your memory still inside me.~
@2740 = ~(Imoen falls silent, waiting for you to say something.)~
@2741 = ~... Is that all? I thought it was something horrible the way you hesitated... *my* dreams were more embarrassing than that... gee it's a relief it wasn't anything more...~
@2742 = ~ Hmm... are you *sure* that is all, Imoen? I don't find it so embarrassing... you're not omitting something are you?~
@2743 = ~Well that was quite a thing. I'm glad I could help to you... but speaking of things, we should be doing *something*... let's hit the road.~
@2744 = ~Acks that was disgusting! Now I know why you were so upset, you are a pervert! I think we shouldn't talk about these things again, I don't like becoming the sexual fantasy of some uppity wench!~
@2745 = ~(You snap back to reality) Ah, are you finished already? I was taking a nap and heard nothing, you don't mind do you?~
@2746 = ~(Her eyes pierce you like daggers that will haunt you in your nightmares) Get-out-of-my-sight. NOW.~
@2747 = ~*Growl*~
@2748 = ~Wh-what!!?? Wha'the hell are ye talkin' about, ya wouldn't be in my fantasies even if you were Drizzt Do'Urden, you... you inbred whoreson!!!~
@2749 = ~Ah, so Drizzt gets you hot, eeh?~
@2750 = ~(Imoen's only response is making quite an obscene, insulting gesture, and then wanders off, VERY upset.)~
@2751 = ~Umm... yeah, sure thing...~
@2752 = ~Y- Y'know, you're right...! I... *ahem* I dunno why I was so embarrassed... what a silly thing, eh...?~
@2752 = ~You know, you're right...! I... *ahem* I don't know why I was so embarrassed... what a silly thing, eh...?~
@2753 = ~N-no, why'd you think that...? That's-- that's all, really...~
@2754 = ~Well you were extremely embarrassed, the look in your eyes, the way you flushed and the way you talked... it's hard to believe you would be that upset because I held you while you cried...~
@2755 = ~Hmm... are you sure?~
@2756 = ~Yeah... sure.~
@2757 = ~... Very well then, I guess you're telling the truth after all.~
@2758 = ~Of course... let's go on...~
@2759 = ~(Despite her denials, you are sure that you could have found out why she was so embarrassed if you were a bit wiser...)~
@2760 = ~I... I don't know what you're talking about... I...~
@2761 = ~Imoen... if you don't talk about it, it will continue to haunt you... please tell me. I promise you that I will understand...~
@2762 = ~(Sigh) Very well then, it seems there's nothing more...~
@2763 = ~Y-yeah, that's it.~
@2764 = ~You... we... (she mumbles so softly that you can't hear anything she says.)~
@2765 = ~Imoen? I couldn't hear you...~
@2766 = ~Bleh, forget it, I'm no longer interested...~
@2767 = ~I... (Imoen looks puzzled by your change of attitude.)~
@2768 = ~Err, alright, let's... let's go on then...~
@2769 = ~Well... I was standing there in your arms and you would... you lifted my chin and made my gaze meet yours... and-- and then... you'd begin to...~ [MRImRom3]
@2770 = ~(She takes a deep breath to gather up her nerve, her face completely red from embarrassment and tension) and then you'd begin to... kiss me... softly...~
@2771 = ~First on my forehead, then on my eyelids, on my nose, my cheeks and down to... to my mouth...~
@2772 = ~I don't find it so-~
@2773 = ~Oh... that, uh, that's quite-~
@2774 = ~Wh-what?? I can't believe you-~
@2775 = ~You didn't stop there...~
@2776 = ~You continued your way down... softly whispering *things* to me through your kisses. Your hands began to move over my body while you kissed my neck and... my throat and then, uh, y-- y'know... you went down a bit... 'further'...~
@2777 = ~We began to... ah, undress each other and... (her voice falls to a mere whisper.)~
@2778 = ~We made... we made love, and it really felt wonderful and unbelievable and you made all my torments fade...~
@2779 = ~(She has finally said it. You notice she's on the brink of tears from the emotional strain. You can't help but wonder what she is thinking about now.)~
@2780 = ~(What you decide to say or do now could set an inflection point in your relationship.)~
@2781 = ~Umm, Imoen, it... it isn't that gross, you know...?~
@2782 = ~I love you, Imoen.~
@2783 = ~I... kissed you... like this? (Kiss her lips gently.)~
@2784 = ~Imoen, you've clearly misinterpreted our relationship. If you think that this is going to make me fall in love you, then you don't know me at all.~
@2785 = ~You're a filthy guttersnipe, Imoen. I thought you were better than that; stay away from me, leave the party at once.~
@2786 = ~(Do nothing and wait for her to speak.)~
@2787 = ~(Sit down and start counting ants.)~
@2788 = ~(Approach her and embrace her.)~
@2789 = ~(Approach her and undress her.)~
@2790 = ~(Imoen raises her gaze from the ground. Fear is obvious in her eyes.)~
@2791 = ~... what...?~
@2792 = ~I love you.~
@2793 = ~(Say nothing more. She heard you perfectly...)~
@2794 = ~You heard me well enough! On your knees, bitch!! I want you to give me pleasure now!!~
@2795 = ~Oh... oh no, no, <CHARNAME>...~
@2796 = ~That's why... (She sniffles) why I was so troubled...~
@2797 = ~<CHARNAME>... I appreciate your kindness, and I don't want to be rough on you... but I guess it's better if I tell you bluntly, and right now.~
@2798 = ~I told you about it because it troubled and worried me, <CHARNAME>... nothing more. All the embarrassment was because... well... I didn't know how you'd react. You understand, don't you?~
@2799 = ~WHAT?? (Imoen's tone would have been as hard as she wanted it to be if she hadn't sniffled again.)~
@2800 = ~What got into you, jerk!?~
@2801 = ~I love you, so I kill you!! (Throw yourself over her to do so.)~
@2802 = ~Ah... nothing...?~
@2803 = ~I... I don't know... why did I say that...!? I... I can't control myself... help me, Imoen, what's happening to me??~
@2804 = ~(Shrug and sit down to crush some nasty ants.)~
@2805 = ~B-but what the HELL are you doing!?~
@2806 = ~I... (Imoen is frightened but her expression shows a mixture of worry and curiosity.)~
@2807 = ~I don't know... you suddenly became violent... this soul-less thing is affecting you in a strange way...~
@2808 = ~Look, I won't pay any heed to what you just said... but it might be better if we drop this conversation for *my* own good... just forget about everything I said.~
@2809 = ~Lead on... if you can, <CHARNAME>. Hope you don't lose your mind like that again.~
@2810 = ~What the...! (Imoen's cat-like reflexes allow her to easily avoid your grasp.)~
@2811 = ~ARE YOU MAD!? (She looks into the eyes of her attempted assassin in disbelief.)~
@2812 = ~I won't wait 'til you stab me while sleeping just because you had the urge, I'm outta here!~
@2813 = ~(Imoen runs off, with the intention of putting a lot of distance between herself and your killing instincts.)~
@2814 = ~(Imoen sniffs) <CHARNAME>... just... just what are you doing?~
@2815 = ~I'm smashing little evil ants, haha!~
@2816 = ~Uh? Nothing, nothing...~
@2817 = ~(You walk towards her, and grab her mage robe to begin undressing her, your hand reaching out to fondle her through her clothing.)~
@2818 = ~(Imoen jumps back when she understands what you intend.)~
@2819 = ~Wh-- what THE HELL you *think* you are doing!?~
@2820 = ~I... I thought you... well...~
@2821 = ~C'mon Imoen, you want it as bad as me!~
@2822 = ~WHAT?? YOU *THOUGHT* I TOLD YOU ALL THAT BECAUSE I WANTED TO HAVE SEX WITH YOU???~
@2823 = ~You are *shit*, <CHARNAME>. Don't you ever look at me again, I don't know how have I considered you a friend all these years!! I'm leaving!!~
@2824 = ~WELL YOU THOUGHT WRONG! You thought I was telling you all that because I loved you!?~
@2825 = ~We will NEVER, EVER talk about this again, <CHARNAME>. I was horribly mistaken to think you'd understand what I was telling you and why I was doing so.~
@2826 = ~Now get outta my sight. I can't stand being close to you right now.~
@2827 = ~(Imoen sniffles, and raises her gaze only to see you sitting on the ground pressing your thumb against the ground repeatedly for some strange reason.)~
@2828 = ~<CHARNAME>... just... just what are you doing?~
@2829 = ~Oh... Oh my! You *are* MAD! I thought all this time that it was funny, that you were just playing along and all but... this is too much!~
@2830 = ~I *won't* stay in a party lead by some crazy <PRO_MANWOMAN> that can't find his own arse! I'm outta here!~
@2831 = ~(Of all the answers she had thought you might give, this is the one she expected the least but she feared the most.)~
@2832 = ~You... I knew you were too dumb to understand what I had to tell you. (She coldly stares at you) You don't have to ask me twice to leave, <CHARNAME>. I'll do it gladly.~
@2833 = ~(You take her face in your hands and motion for her mouth.)~
@2834 = ~(Immersed in her own thoughts and fears as she is, Imoen doesn't react at all when you put your lips on hers. When she finds herself kissing you back, Imoen pushes you away and takes a step back, horrified as she realizes what you were trying to do.)~
@2835 = ~What do you *think* you are doing?~
@2836 = ~WHAT?? YOU *THOUGHT* I TOLD YOU ALL THAT TO GET YOU TO KISS ME???~
@2837 = ~You... you are a big-headed ASSHOLE, <CHARNAME>! I was horribly mistaken to think you'd understand what I was telling you and why.~
@2838 = ~(Of all answers she had thought you might give, this is one she both expected and feared.)~
@2839 = ~You... I knew you were too dumb to understand what I had to tell you. (She coldly stares at you) I will stay with your party, but don't think of me as anything more than a mage at your service, <CHARNAME>.~
@2840 = ~(You silently approach her and gently wrap your arms around her body, in an attempt to comfort her distress.)~
@2841 = ~Huh...? <CHARNAME>, I... I believe you misunderstood me...~
@2842 = ~No, Imoen, I finally understood... I understood you fully. You... you love me... and... and I love you too, Imoen.~
@2843 = ~I'm just trying to comfort you Imoen... I understood you perfectly.~
@2844 = ~(Obviously this is what she feared you might think.)~
@2845 = ~<CHARNAME>, please release me.~
@2846 = ~I appreciate your kindness, and I don't want to be rough on you, but I think it's better if I tell you bluntly, and right now.~
@2847 = ~I do not love you, and never will... we have been like brother and sister all these years, and now we *know* we are. So... don't ruin such a beautiful relationship, eh?~
@2848 = ~I do not love you, and never will... we have been like sisters all these years, and now we *know* we are. So... don't ruin such a beautiful relationship, eh?~
@2849 = ~Do you understand, <CHARNAME>?~
@2850 = ~But... but I-~
@2851 = ~I guess I-~
@2852 = ~And why don't you just fu-~
@2853 = ~Shh... (she gently puts her index finger on your lips) there's nothing more to say...~
@2854 = ~Let's continue our travels...~
@2855 = ~And... what did you understand...?~
@2856 = ~I've finally realized that you love me... and I love you.~
@2857 = ~I've finally realized that you love me... but I'm afraid that... I don't love you, Imoen.~
@2858 = ~I understood that you were deeply troubled by something and that you wanted to share it with me so it would be more bearable.~
@2859 = ~I don't want to be rough on you, but I think it's better if I tell you bluntly, and right now, because (she smiles) you're becoming too big-headed for my taste...~
@2860 = ~I do not love you, and never will... we have been like brother and sister all these years, and now we *know* we are. I'd never ruin such a beautiful relationship.~
@2861 = ~I do not love you, and never will... we have been like sisters all these years, and now we *know* we are. I'd never ruin such a beautiful relationship.~
@2862 = ~So... let's continue our travels, shall we?~
@2863 = ~Oh... <CHARNAME>...~
@2864 = ~(You can feel her tremble as you hold her but you don't know why. For a moment you wonder if you misunderstood her and she was indeed trying to declare her love for you...)~
@2865 = ~So... you don't think that... because of those dreams... I want to... *ahem* 'do it' with you... right?~
@2866 = ~But... would you? Because I don't have any problem with that, if you want to... ~
@2867 = ~ ... Imoen... it was you who said that dreams meant nothing... so, why should these dreams be any different?~
@2868 = ~(She sighs, cuddling further in your arms.)~
@2869 = ~<CHARNAME>, I really didn't expect you to say that... I was so frightened that you might take it the... 'other' way...~
@2870 = ~I was really nervous... and embarrassed having to confess all that to you... but-- but I just needed to tell you. I... I am truly fond of the relationship we have always had, and I couldn't stand to lose it.~
@2871 = ~It's such a relief! Those dreams... I was obsessed with them... you know... making me question myself and all that...~
@2872 = ~They were my salvation, <CHARNAME>... I think I would have gone mad without them. I needed something to cling to, and in the worst times your image was there to remind me that you were still somewhere looking for me... I-- I couldn't have endured everything without that. When there was no hope at all... you always came and told me to hold on a little longer.~
@2873 = ~(Imoen blushes slightly when she notices the awful choice of words she just made, and can't help but giggle) y'know, even though they involved doing such, uh, 'intimate things'... they were my only light in a world of darkness. But they were dreams... only dreams, right?~
@2874 = ~(Imoen sighs again and holds you even tighter, if possible.)~
@2875 = ~Thank you, <CHARNAME>. Thanks for being so open-minded. Other people would have judged me immediately, but you haven't.~
@2876 = ~Let's go on with your quest... *our* quest. I've taken too much of your time already.~
@2877 = ~That it's not gross!? I-- I can't look at you without thinking about it, did you know that!?~
@2878 = ~(A tear escapes her eyes; she turns around and covers her face with both hands.)~
@2879 = ~Imoen, look at me. Do I seem bothered? To tell the truth, I like it...~
@2880 = ~(Do nothing.)~
@2881 = ~(Put one hand on her shoulder, and with the other gently tilt her face upwards until she looks at you.)~
@2882 = ~(Approach her and embrace her from behind.)~
@2883 = ~(You come close enough to pass your arms around her waist, holding her gently in an attempt to ease her distress.)~
@2884 = ~(She sniffles) <CHARNAME>... I... I think you may have misunderstood me...~
@2885 = ~No, Imoen, I finally understood... I understood you fully. You... you love me... and... and I love you too, Imoen.~
@2886 = ~...What...?~
@2887 = ~*sniff* what are you implying by that...?~
@2888 = ~That I've finally realised that you love me... and I love you.~
@2889 = ~(Say nothing and just embrace her.)~
@2890 = ~(Say nothing and just kiss her.)~
@2891 = ~(Say nothing and try to undress her.)~
@2892 = ~(Say nothing, just sit down on the floor and begin to squish ants.)~
@2893 = ~(She looks up at you quizzically.)~
@2894 = ~'Oh...'...? What... what d'you mean by that?~
@2895 = ~(You can read real worry in her eyes. Better to say or do something more meaningful.)~
@2896 = ~Imoen, you've clearly misunderstood our relationship. If you think this will make me love you, you don't know me at all.~
@2897 = ~(Approach her and try to undress her.)~
@2898 = ~(You patiently wait for her to regain her composure. She finally looks up with a wary glance.)~
@2899 = ~That... that's all...~
@2900 = ~(She obviously wants you to speak your mind.)~
@2901 = ~So Imoen... I... kissed you... like this? (kiss her lips gently.)~
@2902 = ~I think you've clearly misunderstood our relationship. If you think that this will make me love you, then you really don't know me very well.~
@2903 = ~Well I see you're a filthy bitch, Imoen. I thought you were better than that. I want you to stay away from me, in fact, I want you leave the party at once.~
@2904 = ~(Wait a little longer to see if she will make the first move.)~
@2905 = ~(Ignore her, sit down and start squashing ants.)~
@2906 = ~(Just approach her and embrace her.)~
@2907 = ~(Just approach her and try to undress her.)~
@2908 = ~(She finally realizes that you won't say anything unless you are forced to.)~
@2909 = ~<CHARNAME>... I need to know what you... think of it... please...~
@2910 = ~I think you've clearly misunderstood our relationship. If you think that this will make me love you, then you don't know me at all.~
@2911 = ~(She turns to face you; her eyes are red but she isn't crying anymore. She is waiting for you to say something... anything.)~
@2912 = ~You shouldn't be so hard on yourself, Imoen. So what if you... if you love me? It isn't that bad... I mean... I could love you too...~
@2913 = ~Imoen... weren't you the one who said that dreams mean nothing? Weren't you the one who counseled me not to dwell on the things I dreamt about? I can only offer you the same advice, and all my support.~
@2914 = ~Imoen... you shouldn't think of such things. It really makes me feel uncomfortable. I mean... I would have never thought you were obsessed with having sex with me. That's quite disgusting.~
@2915 = ~(Lower your hand to her breast, and begin to fondle her while you try to undress her with your other hand.)~
@2916 = ~(Raise your hand to caress her cheek and then softly kiss her lips.)~
@2917 = ~(Pull her towards you and embrace her.)~
@2918 = ~(Release her and sit down to crush some ants.)~
@2919 = ~(She sighs.)~
@2920 = ~It's such a relief! Those dreams... they were obsessing me, you know... making me question myself and all that...~
@2921 = ~They were my salvation, <CHARNAME>... I think I would have gone mad without them. I needed something to cling to, and in the worst times your image was there to remind me that you were still somewhere looking for me... I-- I couldn't have endured everything without that. When there was no hope at all... you always came and told me to hold on a little longer.~
@2922 = ~(Imoen sighs again and raises her hand to yours to hold it tightly, reassuringly.)~
@2923 = ~Thank you, <CHARNAME>. Thank you for being so open-minded. Other people would have judged me immediately, but you haven't.~
@2924 = ~(Slide your hand inside her robe to fondle her breasts, while you begin to undress her with the other.)~
@2925 = ~(Imoen pushes you away forcefully when she realizes what you intend.)~
@2926 = ~So, uh... how're ya doin'?~ [MRImRom1]
@2927 = ~Hmm, what are you after?~
@2928 = ~... you know, it has been a long time since anyone asked me that...~
@2929 = ~Umm... fine?~
@2930 = ~Oh... I was uhh... looking at that rock! (Quickly pocket the black knickers you were sniffing, wondering if she has missed them since you picked them from her backpack while she was sleeping.)~
@2931 = ~None of your business. Haven't I said already that you shouldn't talk so much?~
@2932 = ~... And haven't I told ya yer the most annoying and stupid <PRO_RACE> I've ever known?~
@2933 = ~(You hear Imoen mumble something about your ass, and a big hole she saw somewhere, or something like that.)~
@2934 = ~That's enthusiasm...~
@2935 = ~(Imoen raises an eyebrow) Fascinating indeed...~
@2936 = ~Heh, I figured as much, <CHARNAME>... I figured as much.~
@2937 = ~hah, nothing, nothing at all this time...!~
@2938 = ~It's just that I've noticed that ya spend all yer time worrying about others... I mean, not only talking with me about *my* problems, but... helping people all over Amn get rid of these monsters, or find this holy relic or whatever...~
@2939 = ~An' I thought, "What's <PRO_HESHE> thinking? When does <PRO_HESHE> stop to think about <PRO_HISHER> own self, an' <PRO_HISHER> feelings...?"~
@2940 = ~"People just ask <PRO_HIMHER> to do things for them, an' <PRO_HESHE> goes and does them... I've not yet seen <PRO_HIMHER> say 'I'm really too tired to do that' " ... y'know what I mean?~
@2941 = ~No one ever asks ya "how are you, <CHARNAME>?" They just say "Hey almighty hero, solve my problems!" or "Hey almighty hero, d'you have a moment? Of course you have!"... y'know? I guess I've done that too...~
@2942 = ~So I was thinking... dontcha ever feel even a lil' bit selfish from time to time? Dontcha ever want to do something just for yerself once in a while? I mean, even the greatest of heroes gotta feel that way at some point in their lives!~
@2943 = ~Dontcha get tired of just being considered a "problem solver"? you gotta feel sometimes like people just use ya, give you some trinkets an' forget 'bout ya... right?~
@2944 = ~Imoen, "problem-solving" *is* following my selfish will. It's in my nature, helping people makes me happy.~
@2945 = ~I do get tired at times, Imoen. Sometimes people forget I am not some immortal god that can do everything for them and make their problems go 'poof'. But it's nothing a good rest can't get out of my mind...~
@2946 = ~You know what Imoen, now that you mention it, that's absolutely true. I'm really tired of being used...~
@2947 = ~C'mon Imoen, it's easy to overlook getting used when I start thinking about the reward. And I'm not talking about the 'spiritual' reward, heh...~
@2948 = ~I *DIDN'T* need that, Imoen. You've made me feel like some mindless fool that goes around being used by people.~
@2949 = ~Just leave me be, Imoen.~
@2950 = ~(She frowns) Hmpf, and that's what I get for worrying about <CHARNAME>, ladies and gentlemen...~
@2951 = ~(Imoen giggles) Mebbe that's 'cause ya *are* a mindless fool! Hehe, aww c'mon, y'know what I meant... ye ain't a goof or anything, it's just that yer a bit *too* eager to help, an' people mistake ya for a "foolish good-doer", instead of what ye are, a, uh...~
@2952 = ~A... a *wise* good-doer, yeah!~
@2953 = ~So you only help people for the rewards you might receive...? that's a little... mean, don't you think?~
@2954 = ~No, no, you misunderstood. I meant that, when I know I'm just being "used" to solve people's problems and nothing more, I think of the useful reward (that I'd use for the good of the group) as an incentive to perform good deeds...~
@2955 = ~Exactly.~
@2956 = ~Wow ya managed to say all that without breathing?~
@2957 = ~Oh... heheh...~
@2958 = ~Then, why consent to it? Why dontcha do whatcha wanna do, whenever ya wanna do it?~
@2959 = ~I guess I just like being nice to people...~
@2960 = ~I guess I just do it for the rewards...~
@2961 = ~I don't really know!~
@2962 = ~Agh, I'm tired of all these questions, let me be!!~
@2963 = ~Oh... well, I'd say you shouldn't be *that* nice when you notice you're just being used... there are times when you can put your interests first, y'know? I'm not telling that you *stop* being nice but... just be careful, that's all.~
@2964 = ~I'd never do something without knowing why...~
@2965 = ~Hahah, it's good to hear *you* say that ye ain't some godlike power! Y'know, I also enjoy helping people and all but... there are times when I'm so tired that I just *don't give a shit*!~
@2966 = ~Agh, c'mon cut that crap! There's no one like that in all the realms, I assure you!~
@2967 = ~I'm completely serious!~
@2968 = ~Wow, yer a queer fellow then! I mean... if yer serious ya must be one of a kind! How many people in the Realms would say that of themselves *without laughing*??~
@2969 = ~You know, I too enjoy helping people and all but... there are times when I'm so tired that I just *don't give a shit*!~
@2970 = ~Oh well, dun' mind me at all. I just wanted ya to know I'm not always talking about myself, eh? (she chuckles.)~
@2971 = ~... And now you leave me like this? You've made me think of all that, made me question my own reasons and feelings, and that's all?~
@2972 = ~Heh, I already knew that without this little chat, Imoen.~
@2973 = ~Sure thing (Like it was an effort, ignoring you...)~
@2974 = ~huh? What did you say...?~
@2975 = ~No, nothing, nothing...~
@2976 = ~(Imoen winks at you with a funny smirk on her face) Aww, how sweet of you... (She playfully touches the tip of your nose with her index finger.)~
@2977 = ~Umm, well, that's what I intended!~
@2978 = ~Think it over...!~
@2979 = ~heheheeh...!~
@2980 = ~It's just that I've noticed y'keep doing things to grow in power and wealth, while pursuing Irenicus an' all that...~
@2981 = ~An' I thought, "What's <PRO_HESHE> been thinkin' about all this time? When does <PRO_HESHE> stop and think about <PRO_HISHER> feelings...?"~
@2982 = ~Y'know it's like yer pushed forward, forward, forward... without bein' able t'stop for even a moment to say "Hey let's do what I please, dammit!"~
@2983 = ~Like everyone takes for granted that yer one heartless bastard with no feelings for anyone but <PRO_HIMHER>self... an' I just know that's not completely true, 'cause ya couldn't have been so... understanding with me if it was...~
@2984 = ~An' well, I've noticed that... no one's ever asked ya how ya are or how ya feel or something like that. No one's asked ya "whatcha wanna do?", y'know? It's like... there's a path you must follow no matter what.~
@2985 = ~Yeah, a path... the path of POWER!~
@2986 = ~I want to be thought of as a heartless bastard, Imoen. It suits me and it pleases me. All the things I done, I've chosen to do them.~
@2987 = ~I think my actions have been misunderstood... I've done what I needed to do to survive, plain and simple... I never really intended to harm anyone.~
@2988 = ~... heartless? Would a heartless man do... THIS!? (You cut your arm with your dagger causing it to bleed profusely) AAhahahahaaaah, BLOOD, YES, RED, RED BLOOD!!~
@2989 = ~Well the honest reason why I'm nice to you is the hope of having some cheap sex...~
@2990 = ~And haven't you thought that if I've not been asked it's because I DON'T LIKE QUESTIONS? Just SHUT UP, Imoen!~
@2991 = ~What?? Ye hafta be kiddin'! Tell you what, not A CHANCE IN HELL, you MORON!~
@2992 = ~Hmpf... and I thought you... HMPF!~
@2993 = ~Aaah... alright... I shouldn't wonder why nobody asks 'how are you', everyone already knows yer absolutely barmy!~
@2994 = ~Ya really believe that?~
@2995 = ~Hmpf... yeah right. I can't really believe *that*, <CHARNAME>... I've seen you kill mercilessly, sometimes for sport... so don't try to act innocent in front of me...!~
@2996 = ~Oh yeah? But then, why am I different? How come I'm not just another tool ya use and then toss aside?~
@2997 = ~And who said you weren't??~
@2998 = ~Well, you're different because I've grown to understand you and... *ahem* appreciate you after all these years... you are the one and only exception.~
@2999 = ~That, is none of your business.~
@3000 = ~Hahah, yeah, yeah, o'course it isn't, alright... keep lying to yourself if ya want, heheh. I know ya, you *do* like me, an' nothing ya tell yerself will change that!~
@3001 = ~Well *you* did!! What about all the times we've talked, did it mean nothing to you?~
@3002 = ~Agh, will I have to say it? ... Alright... the truth is that you're different because I've grown to understand you and... *ahem* appreciate you after all these years... you are the one and only exception.~
@3003 = ~Urgh, just leave me alone and stop being so annoying...~
@3004 = ~(Imoen makes a funny face and winks at you) Aww, how sweet of ya, my heartless bastard...! (She giggles and playfully touches the tip of your nose with her index finger.)~
@3005 = ~But oh well, don't mind me at all. I only wanted t'make ya see I don't always talk about myself, eh? (She chuckles.)~
@3006 = ~Ahh, but have ya chosen that path, or have ya been pushed onto it, I wonder?...~
@3007 = ~An' what willya do with all that power you'll supposedly earn, eh?~
@3008 = ~Earn more power! ~
@3009 = ~Raze the realms, obviously.~
@3010 = ~Umm... I don't know?~
@3011 = ~See...? That's what I meant...~
@3012 = ~Hmpf, great plan, actually...! Quite destructive tendencies ya have there...~
@3013 = ~Let's hope I won't be in this plane when that happens...!~
@3014 = ~And with that power?~
@3015 = ~Earn even more power! ~
@3016 = ~And then with that power?~
@3017 = ~Earn even more power if possible! ~
@3018 = ~And then, with aaaaall that power!?~
@3019 = ~Earn much, much more power!! ~
@3020 = ~And with... agh, this leads nowhere...~
@3021 = ~It's just that I've seen ya strive to keep a low profile... stayin' in the background unnoticed while ya mind your own business... I guess y'like things balanced.~
@3022 = ~I've wondered lately, "How's it that <PRO_HESHE> never stops, never says 'I am tired of this...' an' just, don't know, just tell the big 'screw you' to the world"...~
@3023 = ~I mean, has anyone ever asked ya "how are you?" or "how d'ya feel?" so far...? I don't think so, I've not heard it at least. All everyone cares about is "me, me, and myself"...~
@3024 = ~It seems ya go on an' on pushed forward by some invisible force outta your control... like y'have no option at all, y'can't simply... stop.~
@3025 = ~An' I wonder... wouldcha be able t'give up if ya wanted to? If ya could forget about revenge, if-- if y'could actually live without what Irenicus stole from you... would ya?~
@3026 = ~If I could, I would live without what he stole from me, but don't forget you too are involved in this... I'd never give up without retrieving your soul from Bodhi first.~
@3027 = ~No, I wouldn't, apart from personal issues; Irenicus is an affront to the Balance of the Realms. That much power shouldn't be concentrated in one being.~
@3028 = ~No, I wouldn't. I want my soul, and I want my revenge.~
@3029 = ~I don't really know. I guess it doesn't really matter since that could never happen... thinking about it is just a waste of time.~
@3030 = ~Well that's a lot of questions... I guess they all can be answered with this sentence: "As long as I serve Balance, I serve myself."~
@3031 = ~I don't know why you think I want to preserve balance..., I just don't like being noticed, that's all...~
@3032 = ~I don't like 'balanced' things, Imoen. I just did whatever was necessary to rescue you as quickly as possible, and I didn't care if it was right or wrong in other people's eyes.~
@3033 = ~I believe in free will, but it's true that I have little myself: if I don't get my soul back I'll die, and unfortunately the same goes for you...~
@3034 = ~Your questions are almost as annoying as your constant chattering, Imoen. Why don't you stick to your spells and leave me be?~
@3035 = ~I would give up, but I'm out of onions and Irenicus has all of them...~
@3036 = ~Yeah well... I wasn't really talkin' about that. I meant *everything* y'do in general. Y'always manage to blend into the background, whatever ya do, be it good or bad or whatever...~
@3037 = ~Err... is that some kind of metaphor or... something...?~
@3038 = ~Nope, I think everyone should have a cup of tea with onions when noonday comes, but Irenicus has ruined everything!~
@3039 = ~Ahh... of course, what I meant was that...~
@3040 = ~Riiiiight. That's too bad, eh? Umm... I think someone's calling me... over there...~
@3041 = ~(Sheesh... nutty one!)~
@3042 = ~That...~
@3043 = ~No, I wouldn't, apart from personal issues, Irenicus is an affront to the Balance of the Realms. So much power shouldn't be concentrated in just one being.~
@3044 = ~Your questions are only as annoying as your constant chattering, Imoen. Why don't you stick to your spells and leave me be?~
@3045 = ~I... I have my doubts about this, <CHARNAME>... I mean, what if they were wrong, or lying, an' we can survive without them?~
@3046 = ~We have more options than y'think we have: we can choose to believe this and assume the risk; we can choose to have hope and wait for others to stop them and kill them;~
@3047 = ~We *can* choose. But the thing is, which option is the wiser? the safest? the best?~
@3048 = ~Ah...~
@3049 = ~Hmm... we've never really talked 'bout each other's beliefs, have we? I can't believe that in all these years we haven't held such a conversation...~
@3050 = ~But I really wonder if ya *really* desire that, <CHARNAME>... I mean, ya didn't complain about the fame we acquired in Baldur's Gate, didya?~
@3051 = ~Balance... such a big word, and so easily used...~
@3052 = ~Ah, but y'can never be sure. But what if they weren't right and we can survive without our divine souls?~
@3053 = ~Then what if we could choose to forget about everything and just settle down in some village or go adventuring somewhere else or whatever we wish to?~
@3054 = ~Bah, but...~
@3055 = ~Is that so? For what the soul, for power? And for what revenge at all? Just to feel better as ya slay Irenicus?~
@3056 = ~I know what I've said about how much I'd like to see that bastard suffer but... as time passes revenge seems more and more meaningless to me. Right now I-- I'd just like to... forget everything that man did to me an' live the rest of my life far away from him...~
@3057 = ~I-- I don't feel the need for it anymore, y'know...?~
@3058 = ~Hmmm... that might be true but...~
@3059 = ~Wontcha hafta grow to an equal and then greater power than him to be able to stop him?~
@3060 = ~And wouldntcha then become an 'affront to balance' yourself, even more so than he was?~
@3061 = ~hah, yer just flattering me, and ya know it!~
@3062 = ~But anyway... what if I weren't here, would your answer be that clear?~
@3063 = ~(...)~ [MRImRom1]
@3064 = ~Eh? (she blinks repeatedly.)~
@3065 = ~Ah! ... alrighty chief!~
@3066 = ~YYIIAAARGH!!~
@3067 = ~(You had no idea Imoen could jump so high.)~
@3068 = ~What are ya tryin' to do, kill me!? (She giggles while talking) You bastard, that wasn't funny!~
@3069 = ~(She punches your arm playfully, yet quite hard...)~
@3070 = ~(Imoen jumps a little, startled by your touch.)~
@3071 = ~Wow!~
@3072 = ~(She comes out of her inner world and blinks repeatedly.)~
@3073 = ~Ah, w-what, whatcha want?~
@3074 = ~Uh... huh?~
@3075 = ~(She blinks repeatedly, coming back to reality.)~
@3076 = ~Ah, sure... whatcha want?~
@3077 = ~(Imoen jumps a little, surprised by your voice.)~
@3078 = ~Wha-...? (She comes out of her fantasy world.)~
@3079 = ~Hmpf, I hate that sentence, it's sooooo typical...~
@3080 = ~But anyway...~
@3081 = ~... You wanted something from me then?~
@3082 = ~Well you were thinking really hard there... what worries you?~
@3083 = ~Nah, I only wanted to check that you were fine... let's move on.~
@3084 = ~Your thoughtful expression was so beautiful, your loveliness so distracting, that I felt the need to break the spell your sight had cast on me, for my senses could no longer tolerate such a display of pure perfection without being overwhelmed...~
@3085 = ~I don't like people who think. Be alert, obey my command, or leave. You are here to please me in every way, don't you dare to forget that, whore.~
@3086 = ~(Imoen frowns, staring at you in disbelief. Since you just declared your most passionate love for her, she would have never expected a response like that from you.)~
@3087 = ~What do you think I am, you mindless jerk!? Your familiar or something?~
@3088 = ~I'm not here to be your slave, <CHARNAME>! I didn't agree to that, in any way!! If you were thinking that all this time, I've been HORRIBLY mistaken about you.~
@3089 = ~Now leave me alone, before I decide to fry you with my spells!! And better if you don't *dare* even lay eyes on me, you stupid bastard.~
@3090 = ~(She walks away, really upset. it's ostensible you have caused her a very deep wound, hurting her feelings badly. You have just killed her hopes, and cruelly pierced her heart.)~
@3091 = ~(A silent, lonely tear runs down Imoen's cheek and you sense that the rift you have created between the two of you is widening into a chasm.)~
@3092 = ~(Imoen laughs briefly) Aww, aren't you cute? So many words only to flatter me! (she kisses your nose and hugs you softly.)~
@3093 = ~Okays!~
@3094 = ~Oh, nothing, nothing at all.~
@3095 = ~... I was just...~
@3096 = ~... Thinking about some things...~
@3097 = ~About...?~
@3098 = ~I don't like it when people think. Be alert, obey my command, or leave. You are here to please me in every way, don't you dare to forget that, whore.~
@3099 = ~Oh, fine then. Let's go on, hmm?~
@3100 = ~Well, ah... (Imoen is blushing now) they were rather... p-private issues... y'know?~
@3101 = ~And...? I thought there was total confidence between us...~
@3102 = ~Oh, I... understand. It's none of my business...~
@3103 = ~T-that's true, yeah...~
@3104 = ~Oh, Well, fine, if you really wanna hear it...~
@3105 = ~It's just that... it's not a very easy thing for me to talk about...~
@3106 = ~I mean, talking about my sexuality isn't very fitting right now...!~
@3107 = ~Y-- your... sexuality? What nasty things were you fantasizing about??~
@3108 = ~Well you should realize that I want to know absolutely everything about you... from the most trivial thought to the darkest secret.~
@3109 = ~(Open your eyes widely) *No better time than now*!!! C'mon, you better start talking!~
@3110 = ~EEW, you're right. Maybe we should avoid talking about that, eh?~
@3111 = ~You bet...! It would be just too embarrassing.~
@3112 = ~Let's move on then.~
@3113 = ~Hmpf you pervert!~
@3114 = ~Alright, at least one of us is willing to talk about it...~
@3115 = ~Agh... must ya always hafta be so sweet? Oooh-kaay, you win...~
@3116 = ~Agh, I wasn't *fantasizing*, you dork! I was only *thinking*!~
@3117 = ~I was thinkin' about... umm, well, y'know... you and me and stuff...~
@3118 = ~Yes... go on...~
@3119 = ~Arr, stop. I have the feeling that this will get both messy and emotional...~
@3120 = ~(She looks at you quizzically, confused by your sudden change of mind.)~
@3121 = ~(Finally, she shrugs) Bleh, whatever. I wasn't dying to talk about it, heh...~
@3122 = ~Well, basically, about you being a... um, a man...~
@3123 = ~...huh? Is there a problem with that...?~
@3124 = ~Argh, stop, I've heard enough to know that I won't like what you're about to say...~
@3125 = ~HMPF, will you let me actually SPEAK or willya go on *pestering me* with your interruptions!? Y'want me to be too embarrassed to tell ya 'bout it, ya want that!?~
@3126 = ~As I was saying... hmmm... better if I start from the beginning... it will be easier for me...~
@3127 = ~An' do *not* interrupt me! Yer the one who wanted to hear it, after all.~
@3128 = ~(She sighs, trying to calm down so that she will sound natural and 'at ease'.)~
@3129 = ~At... some point in my life, I began to think that I liked... *ahem*... women...~ [MRImRom2]
@3130 = ~(She glares at you so you won't say anything, or even look at her oddly.)~
@3131 = ~It... "started" when I was around fourteen or so, y'know, when girls begin discovering their sexuality and all (She glares at you again.)~
@3132 = ~First there were these, uh... dreams, about Dryads... some of them weren't very innocent, if y'know what I mean...~
@3133 = ~Also I didn't like guys at all... I mean, every normal teenage girl has some crush or something... but I didn't.~
@3134 = ~That's when I began to kinda 'wonder'... but what really made me more or less sure was the... the way I felt about Tyra...~
@3135 = ~Remember Tyra, the half-elven girl? She was nineteen or so in human terms... I actually thought *you* had a crush on her, didn't you? You never told me, anyway...~
@3136 = ~She left Candlekeep with her parents some years later, they were merchants or something like that.~
@3137 = ~Meh, but anyways, about Tyra... ummmmm...~
@3138 = ~Well, one day the two of us went to the nearby lake to bathe... and to make it short, let's say she got completely nude and went swimming, okay??~
@3139 = ~Hers was the first nude body I ever saw... and well, I... *AHEM* I-- I liked what I saw, y-- y'know? I couldn't get her outta my head for a long time...~
@3140 = ~And I... well, I thought about her when I... um... (Imoen's cheeks are so red that you would not be a bit surprised to find that all the blood in her body is now concentrated in her face.)~
@3141 = ~y-- y'know... when... when I, ah... p-- played with my... err... OH you know what I mean!! (Under your 'knowing' smile, she would blush even more if she could.)~
@3142 = ~Well ANYWAY... since then I... I've always thought that I truly liked women...~
@3143 = ~(She looks at you and smiles nervously) Guess I was wrong all this time, heh... or maybe I just needed to find the *right* man...~
@3144 = ~Or maybe it's that you're so special that... we were destined to be together regardless of our gender...~
@3145 = ~Imoen... all that was so disgusting, revolting and horrible that I think I'm gonna puke. You, a *lesbian*! So IMPURE, I can't believe I actually touched you. Get out of my party at once!~
@3146 = ~Imoen... (embrace her from behind) those last words were really sweet of you... and knowing all that about you makes me feel even closer to you...~
@3147 = ~Imoen... I didn't know you liked girls! Mmmmmmm... and thinking about you indulging yourself makes me really HOT! (TRY to embrace her from behind.)~
@3148 = ~Ah... I guess so... let's... let's go on. (Promise to yourself you will NEVER touch her again.)~
@3149 = ~(Imoen is clever enough to know what your tone means.)~
@3150 = ~So... it's like that, <CHARNAME>? Was your love so superficial?~
@3151 = ~I *pity* you.~
@3152 = ~(In spite of what she just said, it's apparent that you have hurt her feelings badly.)~
@3153 = ~(Things will never be the same again.)~
@3154 = ~(Imoen jumps away when she sees you coming, just in time to avoid your naughty hands.)~
@3155 = ~Ack, you sex-obsessed monkey! Can't you think of anything else?~
@3156 = ~I know of someone who's not getting ANY of that tonight...~
@3157 = ~(Imoen regards you with a look that could freeze a dragon's flame.)~
@3158 = ~I pity you, <CHARNAME>. You are pathetic.~
@3159 = ~(The venom in her words makes it clear that you have carved in her a very deep wound. Her hopes and dreams of a future together with you have been dashed.)~
@3160 = ~(A single tear runs down Imoen's cheek as she turns and walks away. There will be no bridging the chasm that now separates the two of you.)~
@3161 = ~(Imoen brightly smiles, receiving your embrace with a kiss in your right hand.)~
@3162 = ~Hearing that makes me happy, my love...~
@3163 = ~heh... calling you that sounds so strange... but...~
@3164 = ~(She twists in your arms to face you.)~
@3165 = ~I like it. (She caresses your lips in a long, soft kiss.)~
@3166 = ~(She sighs, taking pleasure in your arms for a moment. Then she pushes you away reluctantly) let's go on, hmm?~
@3167 = ~Well, basically, about us both being... women...~
@3168 = ~... huh? Don't tell me you have a problem with that...!~
@3169 = ~HMPF, willya actually let me GET IT ALL OUT or willya continue to bother me!?~
@3170 = ~As I was saying... hmmm... better if I start from the beginning...~
@3171 = ~And do *not* interrupt me!~
@3172 = ~(She sighs) Y'know, being able to... love another woman like I do now doesn't really come as a... surprise... to me...~ [MRImRom2]
@3173 = ~At... some point of my life, I began to worry that I liked, uh... women...~
@3174 = ~(She glares at you so you won't say anything, or even look at her oddly.)~
@3175 = ~It... "started" when I was around fourteen or so, y'know, when girls begin discovering their sexuality and all (She glares at you again.)~
@3176 = ~I didn't like guys at all... I mean, every teenage girl has some kinda crush on some guy... but I didn't.~
@3177 = ~That's when I began to kinda 'wonder'... but what really made me more or less sure was the... the way I felt about Tyra...~
@3178 = ~Guess ya'd have been too embarrassed about it... we never talked 'bout those things to tell the truth...~
@3179 = ~I wonder what would have happened if we had known that we both had the same, eh... 'interests'...~
@3180 = ~But to continue with *my* story...~
@3181 = ~Tyra left Candlekeep with her parents some years later, they were merchants or something like that.~
@3182 = ~Meh, but anyways, there was an incident... ummmmm...~
@3183 = ~Well, one day the two of us went to the nearby lake to bathe... and to make it short, let's say she got completely nude and went swimming, alright??~
@3184 = ~Hers was the first nude body I ever saw... and well, I... *AHEM* I liked what I saw, y-y'know? I couldn't get the vision of her beautiful naked body outta my mind for a long time...~
@3185 = ~And I... well, I thought about her when I... um... (Imoen's cheeks are so red that you would not be a bit surprised to find that all the blood in her body is now concentrated in her face.)~
@3186 = ~y-- y'know... when... when I, ah... p-- played with my... err... OH you know what I mean!! (Under your 'knowing' smile, she would blush even more if she could.)~
@3187 = ~(She looks at you and smiles nervously) I-- I s'pose I was right all this time, heh... guess it just took the *right* woman to make me finally admit it to myself...~
@3188 = ~Or... you know, maybe it's that you're so special that... we were destined to be together regardless of our gender...~
@3189 = ~Mmmmm, what a pleasant surprise... you're right though, I also had a hard time admitting to my... tastes.~
@3190 = ~(Simply caress her hair with your lips, the sweet smell of her sweat filling your nostrils as you take her in your arms.)~
@3191 = ~Imoen... (embrace her from behind) it was really sweet of you to say I am the *right* woman for you... and knowing all that about you makes me feel even closer to you...~
@3192 = ~Imoen... knowing all that makes me feel... really HOT! (TRY to embrace her.)~
@3193 = ~Mmh... (She sighs contentedly as she leans her head back to rest on your left shoulder, exposing her neck deliberately so you'll be able to kiss her at will.)~
@3194 = ~Rather odd, dontcha think...? The two of us I mean... both Bhaalspawn, both lesbians and in love with each other...~
@3195 = ~(Imoen turns in your arms, and snuggles up against you. She tenderly kisses your lips, whispering directly into your open mouth.)~
@3196 = ~We are crazy... (She kisses you again) but I sure as hell do love this...~
@3197 = ~(With one last kiss, she sighs) but anyway, let's keep on movin'...!~
@3198 = ~Rather odd, dontcha think...? The two of us I mean... both Bhaalspawn, both lesbians and in love with each other...~
@3199 = ~(She turns around, gets very close to you and tenderly kisses your lips, whispering into your mouth.)~
@3200 = ~We are crazy... (she kisses you again.)~
@3201 = ~(Sighing, she pushes you away reluctantly) but anyway, let's go on...~
@3202 = ~Ack, you sex-obsessed monkey! Can't you think of any other thing?~
@3203 = ~(She turns in your arms to face you.)~
@3204 = ~Y'know...~ [MRImRom1]
@3205 = ~I've been looking at my body and, well... what... uh, what do you think of it?~
@3206 = ~Gosh, I tried to sound natural, but I just haven't gotten used to... y'know, the "you'n'me" stuff...!~
@3207 = ~(Give her a hug) me neither... but I know I will, heh...~
@3208 = ~You'll get used to it pretty soon, my Imoen. (Hold her face in your hands and seal your open mouth over hers in an ardent kiss.)~
@3209 = ~Hmm... let's have sex!~
@3210 = ~Look, if you're going to keep bothering me with stupidities like that, we better just forget about this right now and drop this poor excuse of a romance.~
@3211 = ~(With your relationship in its earliest stages, Imoen is simply not able to tolerate something like what you just said from you.)~
@3212 = ~(Even if you could have been joking, she is so insecure about your mutual 'involvement' that your words have caused her to realize that all of your mutual 'involvement' is a great mistake.)~
@3213 = ~You know? Yer right. I won't bother you again, *I promise* (She glares at you and then gets away, tears welling up her eyes even though she tries to hide them.)~
@3214 = ~(Imoen's eyes open wide) Uh... what?? ... now?? Whatcha think I am, some three gold-piece whore you can bed whenever you want??~
@3215 = ~Oh c'mon Imoen, I was joking! (Hug her lovingly) I was trying to make you feel better, that's all... of course I'm not used to it yet, but that doesn't mean that I don't like it...~
@3216 = ~Oh, you are not? If you're not going to please my every desire and command then we better just forget about this right now.~
@3217 = ~heheh... yeah, I'm pretty enjoyable aren't I? (She snuggles into your arms.)~
@3218 = ~(Despite being surprised at first, she avidly kisses you back, closing her eyes as she wraps her arms around your neck, moaning softly.)~
@3219 = ~(When your lips move apart, she looks into your eyes and smiles dreamily) It gets easier every second that passes... (she snuggles into your arms.)~
@3220 = ~But anyway... could ya answer me? Whatcha think of... my body?~
@3221 = ~Imoen, every time I look at you I can't help but admire the gorgeous figure you have... it has grown to be a distraction in battle! (Chuckle.)~
@3222 = ~You have a great frame, Imoen.~
@3223 = ~It's fine I guess.~
@3224 = ~(Look at her in the eye) I don't care about your body at all, Imoen. What lies within is the only thing that matters to me.~
@3225 = ~Well to tell the truth, you've been putting on some weight! You need to get a bit more exercise. Casting spells in battle is really not much of a work out, you know.~
@3226 = ~(As a response, you take her in your arms and lift her holding her *very* tightly, your tongue craving hers while you kiss her with all the passion you can find inside yourself.)~
@3227 = ~You shouldn't trouble yourself with such questions, Imoen. My opinion on your body changes nothing.~
@3228 = ~Gee thanks... lucky ya said that, otherwise yer hair would already be in flames... (She winks at you, but something tells you that she really meant that...)~
@3229 = ~Huh? Ar'ya sayin' *ya don't like my body*??~
@3230 = ~(Imoen's glare looks quite dangerous...)~
@3231 = ~Oh Imoen, every time I look at you I can't help but admire the gorgeous figure you have... it has grown to be a distraction in battle!(Chuckle.)~
@3232 = ~Alright... you have a great frame, Imoen.~
@3233 = ~Meh, it's fine.~
@3234 = ~Well to tell the truth, you've been putting on some weight. You need to get a bit more exercise. Casting spells in battle is really not much of a work out, you know ~
@3235 = ~hmmm... Maybe you're right.~
@3236 = ~(You and Imoen are one, lost in each other's body you are oblivious to the world.)~
@3237 = ~(After the long, intense kiss, your lips and Imoen's reluctantly move apart from each other.)~
@3238 = ~(Imoen is speechless.)~
@3239 = ~Was that a reply good enough for you?~
@3240 = ~S-sure...~
@3241 = ~Hahah, well, that's 'cause yer a nasty one, not my fault!~
@3242 = ~"Fine"? That's all ya have to say? Hmpf, I should have guessed...~
@3243 = ~What?? that's not true! I just, ah... I retain liquids!~
@3244 = ~Hmpf, telling a woman she's fat, not a very wise thing to do!~
@3245 = ~But, anyway... I asked because I've got an awful lot of scars on my body...!~
@3246 = ~Most of them, too recent to have healed completely... if you know what I mean. Every time I look at them I can't help but remember... the cell... the knives... *his* face... the *stench*...~
@3247 = ~(You fear she'll become melancholy again, but she manages to shake it off and smile at you.)~
@3248 = ~Don't worry, I'm fine. At least not all the scars are bad (She points to the scar across her right eyebrow) this one makes me *even* cuter, dontcha think? (She winks at you, chuckles and kisses your nose.)~
@3249 = ~Not all of them are from those... 'incidents' either. Look, heheh, this one (she taps a long scar across her left triceps) *you* put this one here, remember?~
@3250 = ~Heheh, well, yeah... I guess I took our training sessions too seriously...~
@3251 = ~Heheh, well, yeah... we shouldn't have played "toss the knife" so light-heartedly that time...~
@3252 = ~It wasn't my fault, that plate mail fell off its peg all by itself!~
@3253 = ~Umm... nope... I don't remember it at all...~
@3254 = ~Your scars are horrid and disgusting, Imoen...! I don't like thinking about them and I like seeing them even less.~
@3255 = ~(Imoen frowns. She seems tired of your contradictory replies.)~
@3256 = ~Well I'll make it easy on you, <CHARNAME>...! You won't get to see them for a long, long time!~
@3257 = ~Well ya should!~
@3258 = ~Hah, nope, you're wrong, that one is up here! (She uncovers her right shoulder to show you a small dark mark) And as I remember, it 'somehow' fell while ya were tryin' to see if there was something interesting inside...~
@3259 = ~hahahahaaah, ooh, we were really good at that... we were having so much fun until ya threw it waaay too fast... but that one hit me *here*, <CHARNAME> (She shows you a small scar on her left forearm.)~
@3260 = ~heh, we both did, but that one is right down here (She uncovers her left thigh to show you a small dark line on it.)~
@3261 = ~It's from when we were thirteen or so; we were walking out of Candlekeep library, an' ya were really upset 'cause I was going hunting with Tyra while ya stayed cleaning the stables (She giggles at the memory.)~
@3262 = ~Heheh, and what *really* upset ya was that it was *my* turn to clean them, but I had managed to confuse Gorion so he'd let me go.~ [MRImRom5]
@3263 = ~oh you were so mad at me! Mainly 'cause I started to dance around ya and sing some kind of 'I go - you stay' song (She chuckles again.)~
@3264 = ~I guess I got really annoying when I jumped in front of you and flicked your nose while I shouted to your face "I GO!"...~
@3265 = ~'Cause then, screaming something like 'GRAAARGHSHADDAP!!', while shoving me away from ya as hard as y'could...~
@3266 = ~And I was *so* lucky, that I happened to fall right onto one of those really sharp fences that were there protecting the flowers...~
@3267 = ~(Imoen follows the trail of the long scar on her arm) See? it went from here to here... y'know, it hurt a lot!~
@3268 = ~Oh... I didn't remember that one... I'm sorry, Imoen.~
@3269 = ~Well, that time I think you really deserved it!~
@3270 = ~Just thinking of it makes me shudder...~
@3271 = ~(Open your eyes wide with delight) Yeah, pain is great... blood is great...~
@3272 = ~heh don't worry, you apologized enough back then...!~
@3273 = ~You bet!~
@3274 = ~Yep, it wasn't pleasant...!~
@3275 = ~What...?~
@3276 = ~Never mind...~
@3277 = ~Hahah, oh, your face changed so much when ya saw it! From real rage to worry and distress... if I hadn't been on the edge of consciousness I'd have appreciated it even more.~
@3278 = ~Ya were fast though. You took me in your arms as you could, not caring at all about the blood that immediately soaked through your shirt... and stumbled your way to Frendan, the Oghma Priest. Hehe, you entered his place shouting like mad...~
@3279 = ~He managed to heal me with spell-casting and MUCH sewing... It wasn't pleasant at all, I think I was too weak to even scream.~
@3280 = ~I remember someone saying that the wound cut so deep that the bone could be seen. Lucky for you I couldn't cry out or I'd have pierced your ears with terrifying screams, I swear!~
@3281 = ~An' every time I opened my eyes... I saw yours. Hah, yer look still burns in my memory! So worried, so INTENSELY worried! How cute of ya... (She snuggles further into your arms.)~
@3282 = ~It was something worth seeing. Oh and Gorion! Gorion got REALLY mad at ya later, when he entered the place an' saw the mess we had there... the bandages on me an' the blood-soaked clothes...~
@3283 = ~They removed those fences because of that, heheh...~
@3284 = ~Ahh, memories, memories...~
@3285 = ~You really astound me, Imoen; how can you remember it all so clearly?~
@3286 = ~We'd be nothing without them...~
@3287 = ~So many words... my head aches...~
@3288 = ~I love these moments when I can break free from the real world but... I hate to say we should get going.~
@3289 = ~Oh... oh yeah! I just lose track of time when I talk with ya my... *ahem* my love.~
@3290 = ~(Ugh I almost did it! Next time it'll sound great. My love... hmm, that's not the tone. My love. My LOVE! nah too high... my...)~
@3291 = ~(...)~
@3292 = ~(Imoen plays along) Hahahah, poor dumb-head, ya couldn't stand that huge rant, huh? My poor little <CHARNAME>...~
@3293 = ~C'mon, the road awaits us!~
@3294 = ~True thing indeed. Memories define our identities... and I have little 'memories' all over my body to define me!~
@3295 = ~I've got a good memory for this kinda stuff I guess... or maybe it's *you* who has forgotten it all with all yer 'I-am-the-Child-of-Bhaal' thing (she giggles, and you suddenly feel a sense of déjà vu.)~
@3296 = ~B'sides, I'm full of little "reminders" all over my body so I won't forget anything!~ [MRImRom3]
@3297 = ~Like this one here on my shoulder (She smiles at some random memory that comes to her mind) ... or down here, on the left knee...~
@3298 = ~And this one... (Imoen looks puzzled) this one...? Where d'you come from, missy? I don't remember getting ya at all... but yer not one of the 'new' ones...~
@3299 = ~(She is talking to a small scar on the right side of her uncovered belly, surrounding its trail with both hands, stretching the skin around it for you to see it clearly.)~
@3300 = ~(However, you *do* recognize it. This scar is in exactly the same place as the one the 'Dream Imoen' showed you that she had gotten when she was very young.)~
@3300 = ~(She might not remember it, but *you* do. This scar is exactly in the same place as the one she got from the goblin attack that you saw in your dreams; the one she got when she was very young.)~
@3301 = ~Hmmm... don't know, you can't hope to remember them all I guess...!~
@3302 = ~Imoen, remember when I told you of my dreams about you...? That scar looks *exactly* like the one you showed me.~
@3303 = ~Bah, forget it, we have spent too much time looking at your body! There's an Irenicus out there to kill.~
@3304 = ~Hmmm... have I told you I like apples?~
@3305 = ~(Imoen looks quizzically at you.)~
@3306 = ~Err... no you haven't...~
@3307 = ~Umm, why?~
@3308 = ~I want an apple.~
@3309 = ~Well, I do like apples.~
@3310 = ~An apple from time to time helps your mind grow strong.~
@3311 = ~Apples are good. They are red. Or green!~
@3312 = ~Some apples have worms. I don't like worms.~
@3313 = ~Apples are fruit. Fruit is edible. Apples are yummy.~
@3314 = ~Apples grow in trees. Trees are green. I like trees!~
@3315 = ~Sometimes I think to myself, "What would we do without apples?"~
@3316 = ~Gorion didn't like apples, he said they were too red for him. But he didn't know there also are green ones!~
@3317 = ~Mmmmmm... apples... I like you *almost* as much as apples.~
@3318 = ~Uh... right.~
@3319 = ~Better if we... umm, move on, eh?~
@3320 = ~(To herself) Wow that was *weird*!~
@3321 = ~Hmpf, I thought you never tired of looking at my body... (she winks at you with a mischievous smile.)~
@3322 = ~But you're right, let's kick Irenicus' butt!~
@3323 = ~(To herself) hmm, that would be Minsc's line...~
@3324 = ~(Imoen remains thoughtful) Guess you're right...~
@3325 = ~Let's move on anyway, Irenicus awaits us!~
@3326 = ~Hmmmmmmm...~
@3327 = ~... really?? Yeah I remember ya tellin' me that but...~
@3328 = ~Y'know... maybe... maybe you're right! Somehow I always associated this scar with the stench of a goblin, but didn't know why...~
@3329 = ~Guess those dreams ya had... all really happened?~
@3330 = ~Yes I... I think I remember...~
@3331 = ~Your words... what ya told me, about protecting me and all that... and my reaction to that...~
@3332 = ~(She sighs) Who could have guessed it, huh?~
@3333 = ~But anyway... I've made ya spend too much time on me already, there's an Irenicus out there that still has your soul!~
@3334 = ~Let's go find him and finish this, my... *ahem* my love.~
@3335 = ~I can't believe we are finally outta that underworld, ugh... (She sighs) it's really great breathing this air!~ [MRImRom3]
@3336 = ~Y'know <CHARNAME>, I'd really enjoy resting somewhere *green and beautiful* for a change... wouldn't ya?~
@3337 = ~I think... hmm... (Imoen looks around her) this seems quite a neat spot, eh?~
@3338 = ~So, what if we spend a night here 'fore we go get this "lanthorn" thing? After all we've been through, we can wait a few hours longer before we set off after Bodhi...~
@3339 = ~Hmm... you know what? Let's do it. I am also tired after all that darkness and cruelty and drow deceit... no offense intended, Viconia...~
@3340 = ~Hmm... you know what? Let's do it. I am also tired after all that darkness and cruelty and those drow...~
@3341 = ~I don't really think so. I'd prefer to get to Bodhi, then Irenicus, and *then* we can do whatever you want to do.~
@3342 = ~Haven't I told you that when you have an idea, you should tell it to the nearest rock and leave ME alone?~
@3343 = ~Yeah but I thought you were babbling stupidly as always... how could I know it was the first time you spoke actually *knowing* what you were saying?~
@3344 = ~(Picky asshole...)~
@3345 = ~(She shrugs) Very well then... but I think yer losing a great opportunity...~
@3346 = ~Heh... great then.~
@3347 = ~Aawwn... I thought we'd go camping...! It wasn't that hard to go and spend a few hours there an' just forget about everything for *once* in our lives...~
@3348 = ~(She sighs deeply) Oh well, I guess we've lost a great opportunity.~
@3349 = ~Aah... (Imoen stretches) this place is great... look, that spot over there will do.~
@3350 = ~Yeah, a beautiful place dontcha think? Let's rest here!~
@3351 = ~(You unpack your bedroll and prepare to lie down for the night.)~
@3352 = ~... huh?~
@3353 = ~but what ar'ya doing?~

@3371 = ~(Imoen's face goes completely pale; she is troubled and confused. It is as if she has imagined this situation countless times before.)~
@3372 = ~Oh... oh, no, no, <CHARNAME>... you... you, I mean... you matter a lot to me, you're the most important person in my life right now, but...~
@3373 = ~I do love you but... not in that way... you understand?~
@3374 = ~Yeah, I understand. I understand you are a *lesbian*! ~
@3375 = ~Yeah, I understand. You are just another bitch that wants my help but who isn't planning on giving anything back in exchange.~
@3376 = ~Oh, I'm so sorry <CHARNAME>! I didn't want to disappoint you so much but... it just can't be...~
@3377 = ~(Her voice drops to a barely audible whisper) I've... I decided some time ago... that I wouldn't let myself love you... no matter what...~

@3381 = ~I am sorry, <CHARNAME>. It cannot be.~
@3382 = ~Well just light a fire, sit down all of you and I'll show you the kind of relaxation I have in mind for tonight...!~

@3391 = ~Stop it... stop it, you're killing me!!~
@3392 = ~(You finally come to your senses and stand up like nothing happened.)~
@3393 = ~(You are too obsessed by the fact that you cannot fly to stop rolling around on the ground. It begins to hurt but you don't really care.)~
@3394 = ~What was that!?? (Imoen barely can talk without breaking into laughter again.)~
@3395 = ~That... what?~
@3396 = ~Well I'd like to fly you know...?~
@3397 = ~You... you were just... (Then she notices the trace of a smile that plays on your lips.)~
@3398 = ~Ooh, yer terrible! How d'ya think up of such... *crazy* jokes??~
@3399 = ~Meh, forget about it, do as I said and sit, c'mon!~
@3400 = ~hah, it seems that you've been "flying" for a looong time now...!~
@3401 = ~Forget it, do as I said and sit, c'mon!~
@3402 = ~(She keeps looking at you as you writhe on the ground. When she understands you're definitely NOT joking, she slowly stops laughing and a slightly worried expression appears on her face.)~
@3403 = ~Aaah... <CHARNAME>... you okay??~
@3404 = ~(You don't hear her. You want to fly.)~
@3405 = ~(Stand up like nothing happened) Yeah, sure. Why?~
@3406 = ~(Seeing that her words have no effect on you, she approaches to try to calm you down.)~

@3408 = ~(Suddenly grab her ankle and pull her to the ground to make her roll with you.)~
@3409 = ~(That's enough, you didn't want to worry her like this, so you stand up like nothing has happened.)~
@3410 = ~Who-oooah!! (She staggers and falls from this unexpected 'attack'.)~
@3411 = ~Hahah, enough, enough!! aaah, release meeee! (Although she still seems to be having fun with this crazy thing, it's apparent that this is becoming too much for her to deal with...)~
@3412 = ~(Release her and burst out laughing: obviously everything was a joke.)~

@3422 = ~(You really have a problem. A big one.)~

@3426 = ~Euhh... we were supposed to get it on...!~
@3427 = ~Uh... I'm gonna take a bath... in that lake over there... yeah, that's it.~
@3428 = ~G-- get your clothes on...! We'll have time for that later...!~

@3434 = ~A lot of time has passed since I last felt like this... a lot of time indeed.~
@3435 = ~(You wonder if she's going to get depressed, but Imoen gives her head a light shake as if she has wiped away some bad memories.)~
@3436 = ~(There's a hint of anticipation and expectancy in her eyes that tells you she's just decided to finally reveal a jealously guarded secret. As she smiles, you notice she is a little nervous.)~
@3437 = ~Y'know what...? I've finally made up my mind an' I'm going to do it at last... no one has ever seen before what I'm goin' to show ya now... Well I've seen it of course and so has Gorion and ol' PuffGuts, but no one else in the realms has. It's just the perfect moment for it, you'll see!~
@3438 = ~(Imoen looks for something inside her backpack. After messing with her belongings, she finally takes out some little object.)~
@3439 = ~(She shows it to you; upon further examination you can see it's a little figurine, made of ivory or some such, in the form of a musical instrument... you are not sure due to its small proportions and your lack of knowledge on the matter, but it reminds you of a lute or similar stringed instrument.)~

@3441 = ~*Scyrooh... Vyxdiq'ly... Hek-ttoh...*~
@3442 = ~(The arcane words echo in your head as you witness how the small figurine begins to move by itself. It slowly grows, until a full-sized instrument rests in Imoen's arms; it looks wooden now, but still the colour of ivory.)~
@3443 = ~Tee heee! Look at your face! Yer petrified, arentcha!? Well *that* wasn't the surprise!~
@3444 = ~(Imoen's fingers begin to gracefully fly over the strings, playing a beautiful melody.)~
@3445 = ~(She raises her head and smiles gently, triumphantly at you. She *knows* you knew absolutely nothing of this ability of hers. Noticing your inquisitive look, she begins to explain.)~ [MRImInt3]
@3446 = ~Gorion... when he gave up trying to teach me the magic spells he felt I should learn --Boring I tell you-- and recognized my... *ahem* sneaking skills and wonderful inventiveness... (she winks at you.)~
@3447 = ~He tried to encourage me to become some sort of bard so I wouldn't end up as a 'common thief', I think his words were.~
@3448 = ~To do that, he gave me... this. (She is still playing, having no trouble whatsoever talking and playing simultaneously.)~
/* Additional strings: 5194 - 5196 */
@3449 = ~He showed me the spell to enlarge and shrink it --that one OF COURSE I wanted to learn it, hehe-- an' told me to have patience and take my time to learn...~
@3450 = ~He had no skill in playing guitars though (she chuckles) but told me PuffGut-- uh, Winthrop did. An' that surprised me *even* more, heh... I mean, why did Winthrop know how to play such a rare instrument? He went all serius'n'somber every time I asked, quite upset with me... so I never got to know ...~
@3451 = ~(She giggles loudly) Aah, what a hard time I had convincing him to teach me something to start with! I had to threaten him with telling everyone that he played the guitar if he didn't teach me... he was all secretive with it, he was *really* upset with Gorion for telling me about it... But he ended up teaching me, hehe.~
@3452 = ~He was very timid, y'know... no one but Gorion and very few others knew this... I think he and Gorion were much closer friends than they let anyone know. Anyway, the truth is that he was a master at it. A true master indeed!~
@3453 = ~He taught me very little though, the basics. He constantly spoke of "developing yourself" and all that... I see he was right now, but I took my time to understand it!~
@3454 = ~I... I didn't become a bard though, as you know...! I couldn't stand playing in front of people. I played everything wrong! It was horrible... both Gorion and Winthrop couldn't believe I played *so* awfully, although they really tried to hide it...~
/* Bard specific string: 5197 */
@3455 = ~Neither Winthrop nor Gorion knew I went on practicing when I was completely alone. They thought I had given it up, "like everything else", heheh...~
@3456 = ~An' that's the story of the Imoen's Magic Guitar! (She giggles and starts to play something different.)~ [MRImInt2]
@3457 = ~Surprised, hmm?~
@3458 = ~Whoah... you're incredibly good, Imoen. But you didn't have all that much time to spend alone! How's it you've become such a good musician?~
/* Additional responses: 5198 - 5200 */
@3459 = ~I knew nothing of this... why didn't you tell me?~
@3460 = ~I hate music, please stop it at once!~
@3461 = ~(She stops playing, puzzled) Whatcha mean ya *don't like music*?? Everyone likes at least some sort of music...!~ [MRImEndG]
@3462 = ~Uh, actually it was just a joke, heheh...~
@3463 = ~Well, *I* don't, Imoen...~
@3464 = ~It's not that I hate all music, but *your* music.~
@3465 = ~Agh, you really know how to make an insecure girl feel comfortable, right!? Lucky for me I don't give a shit about your opinions!~
@3466 = ~Meh, I don't even know why I ever wanted to play in front of *you* anyway. I'm no longer in the mood for this.~
@3467 = ~Do whatever you want, I'm going to bed.~
@3468 = ~How's it you never mentioned that? It's quite unusual, you know... I'd bet even *Irenicus* likes some kind of music, heh...~
@3469 = ~Oh well, if ya don't like it there's no point in going on playing... sorry people, show's over!~
/* Solo response, 5201 */
@3470 = ~(She shrinks her instrument again; she seems a little uncomfortable at first, but she shrugs it off soon enough and behaves normally again. You spend some more time talking around the fire, chatting about anything but Irenicus and Bodhi, and then go to bed to get some much deserved rest.)~
@3471 = ~Ah, fine, ya had me worried there, heheh... (she starts playing again.)~ [MRImInt2]
@3472 = ~Anyway, you're incredibly good, Imoen. But you didn't have all that much time to spend alone! How's it you've become such a good musician?~
@3473 = ~Oh well... I didn't know anything about this... why didn't you tell me?~
@3474 = ~Well, I might sound big-headed but... I progressed really fast. I've got *talent*, y'know? Swift-learning, a quick study, total recall, call it whatever you want...~
@3475 = ~How could I have changed from a *common thief* to such a powerful mage *so* easily in *so* little time if I weren't like that? I'm just too great, don't you think!? (She laughs playfully, pretending she truly believes what she just said with a cocky expression.)~
@3476 = ~Hahah, don't mind my big, big head, it's only that I liked it a lot. I dunno, it felt kinda exciting thinking I'd be able to play something that few knew even *existed*... so I spent on it all the time I could. And, well, heh... I'm usually pretty good at what I really like, *that* is true!~
@3477 = ~And why didn't you tell me before?~
@3478 = ~Well I lied; all that sounds like a huge load of elephant turds, both your music *and* your story.~
@3479 = ~Great! Go on playing then.~
@3480 = ~Yeah, you're a big-headed bitch that's right. Why don't you take your 'fabulous guitar' and your 'fantastic magic' and get the hell outta my sight, you dirty whore?~
@3481 = ~Well... I didn't want to until I was acceptably good at it... I went all messy when playin' in public, the very idea made me feel sick I tell ya!~
@3482 = ~Y'know, when everything in Baldur's Gate was solved I was toying with the idea, trying to find the appropriate situation... But then Irenicus' minions came and ruined everything!~
@3483 = ~I hadn't played again 'til now. An' I'm surprised I'm not trembling right now, playing in front of ya... guess I've got more confidence now or whatever.~
@3484 = ~Oh, that's fine then. Go on playing, I'll enjoy listening.~
@3485 = ~You know what, I lied; all that sounds like a huge load of horse crap, both your music *and* your story.~
@3486 = ~Ah, all that lets me see you're a big-headed bitch with way too much self-esteem. Why don't you take your 'fabulous guitar' and your 'fantastic magic' and get the hell outta my sight, you dirty whore?~
@3487 = ~(She looks at you suspiciously, and nearly ceases her strumming.)~
@3488 = ~That's another one of your humorless jokes... right?~
@3489 = ~Hahah, you got me this time... c'mon, go on playing...~
@3490 = ~I'm not joking, it's so bad it *stinks* from here, and that's quite difficult since it's music!!~
@3491 = ~(When you are about to utter these words, you notice Imoen is in a very susceptible mood this night. Perhaps saying this would hurt her much more than any other thing you might tell her.)~
@3492 = ~(Maybe you should take a few seconds to reconsider.)~
@3493 = ~(Say what you intended to.)~
@3494 = ~(Swallow your words and be nice) Oh, that's fine then. Go on playing, and I'll enjoy listening.~
@3495 = ~(Tell her something a little less harsh) You know what, I lied; all that sounds like a huge load of cow excrement, both your music *and* your story.~
@3496 = ~(The music stops at once. Imoen looks up dejectedly) I... I thought you knew I was joking, <CHARNAME>... I didn't intend to get you mad!~
@3497 = ~I know you weren't serious about that so I won't... 'overreact' to what you just said.~
@3498 = ~... I'm no longer in the mood... if you'll excuse me...~
@3499 = ~(Imoen stands up and walks out of the scene, taking the guitar with her. You can see how a tear reflects the flames as she walks away.)~
@3500 = ~(After this no one really feels talkative anymore, so you all prepare to retire. You fall asleep hearing the faint sound of a slow, sad melody from afar.)~
@3501 = ~(There is no longer any point to staying awake, so you go head off to bed. You fall asleep hearing the faint sound of a slow, sad melody from afar.)~
@3502 = ~Of course you will! (She chuckles happily, and stops the melody she was playing.)~ [MRImEndG]
@3503 = ~Listen here... (Imoen prepares a chord and clears her throat with a slight cough.)~
@3504 = ~(She closes her eyes and the melody starts, a soft, simple tune that serves as cover for... her voice.)~

@3567 = ~(You realize what a harpy she's been) You dirty whore, you have no right to do that to me!! Get out of my sight and never utter another word in my presence again!!~
@3568 = ~(Just shake your head at her disapprovingly and ignore her.)~
@3569 = ~Ooh, fine then...! (She frowns childishly) You always have to ruin all the fun...!~
@3570 = ~Wow wow, easy there, sheesh it was only a damn joke...!~
@3571 = ~(You stand up and attempt to grab her, but she jumps out of reach too quickly.)~
@3572 = ~Hahahah, yer too clumsy for me, slowpoke! (She sticks out her tongue at you and carries on laughing!)~
@3573 = ~(Playfully chase her.)~
@3574 = ~(Chase her so you can beat her face to a bloody pulp!)~
@3575 = ~Arrgh, just... just let me be!! I'm tired of this, and I'm tired of *you*!~
@3576 = ~Fine, let's see what happens next time you're sleeping, Imoen... eeeheheheehh... (Rub your hands together and grin wickedly.)~
@3577 = ~Youch!! (She somehow manages to break from your grip.)~
@3578 = ~Bah, fine then...! (She frowns childishly) You always have to ruin all the fun...!~
@3579 = ~Oops... hey you're scaring me now! hahah, well then I guess I'll have to cast some contingency spells on myself tonight...! You won't have a chance!!~
@3580 = ~Oh... that's true... (Forget about everything and just play along, playfully chasing her.)~
@3581 = ~Damn... (Out of options, you'll have to chase her if you want to teach her a lesson.)~
@3582 = ~Ugh, not fair! Just... just let me be! I'm tired of you and your stupid jokes!!~
@3583 = ~WHOAH! (Guessing your intentions, she runs off, still teasing you and still laughing) Try if you want, you won't catch me, heheeeh!~
@3584 = ~Hahahahahah... hahahah... (She keeps giggling uncontrollably, incredibly happy. Even with all she has been through, it seems there's a part of her that will never change.)~ [MRImRom1]
@3585 = ~(Forget about what she did and just keep looking at Imoen, not wanting to disturb such a pure feeling of happiness and joy.)~
@3586 = ~Now you'll see, I'll have my revenge! (playfully tickle her in the sensitive spots you remember from childhood.)~
@3587 = ~REVENGE! (Slap her face with *all* your strength for what she did to you.)~
@3588 = ~Now you'll learn, bitch! (Begin to tear her clothes off so you can have your way with her.)~
@3589 = ~(Simply stand up) Well, that iss enough! We had some fun, but it's about time we continue on our quest.~
@3590 = ~Haheheh... ooh, all-right... now I was having some real fun...~
@3591 = ~(She sighs) But guess you're right, of course. Let's get my soul back, <CHARNAME>!~
@3592 = ~(Imoen stops laughing at once) What-- what are you doing!?~ [MRImNig2]
@3593 = ~(Go on without saying anything.)~
@3594 = ~I'm gonna teach you a lesson, whore!~
@3595 = ~(Come to your damn senses and stop the atrocity you were about to perform by releasing her immediately) Huh? I... I don't know...~
@3596 = ~(Her breath and heart are racing. Horrible memories are beginning to stir in her mind) Stop, STOP I SAY!~
@3597 = ~(Tears soon are flooding her eyes as she sees you don't put a hold to your instincts.)~
@3598 = ~No, NO, Please, please <CHARNAME>, PLEASE DON'T! (She struggles to break free from your grip, but she doesn't make it.)~
@3599 = ~(You're not going to stop. You want it all, and you want it now. She will learn some respect.)~
@3600 = ~(You realize the horrible thing you are doing, and release her at once) What... what was I doing??~
@3601 = ~(Fear grows unstoppable inside Imoen, until it controls every one of her thoughts and movements. With an effort born of desperation, she manages to kick you in your stomach with all her adrenaline-boosted strength.)~
@3602 = ~(Half naked, she crawls away from you using this momentary advantage.)~
@3603 = ~NEVER, EVER AGAIN, NOT AGAIN, NOT AGAIN!!! (Memories dominate her mind. You are a Duergar. She is a prisoner.)~
@3604 = ~(Something burns inside of Imoen, controlling her from within. Her eyes glow with abyssal flames as she rises above the ground, now hovering in midair. She's not Imoen anymore.)~
@3605 = ~(She is something else. Something very powerful.)~
@3606 = ~(Her howling voice, the tremor of many voices joined as one, impacts you as a tempest.)~
@3607 = ~DIE, <PRO_BROTHERSISTER>!!~
@3608 = ~(The last sound you hear is the wail of a thousand banshees.)~
@3609 = ~(The last image, two hollow eyes mercilessly rejoicing in your death.)~
@3610 = ~DON'T MOVE OR I'LL KILL YOU!~
@3611 = ~(But her mind is clever enough to realize she's a powerful Mage now. She casts an Invisibility spell on her, and she's nowhere to be seen.)~
@3612 = ~(You know you've lost her forever. Lying there, with a blank look in your eyes, the phrase 'You are a monster' echoes in your brain.)~
@3613 = ~(Half naked, Imoen crawls away from you as fast as she can.) What were you going to do!?~
@3614 = ~You are no better than Irenicus or Bodhi or any other! Stay away from me!!~
@3615 = ~Imoen, please, please forgive me, I was driven by this... 'taint', I could not control myself, I really didn't want to harm you!~
@3616 = ~Agh I was so close... I should have held you tighter.~
@3617 = ~No, NO, you lie! You'd RAPE me, YOU'D RAPE ME LIKE THAT DWARF!! I must get OUT OF HERE!! AWAY FROM YOU!!~
@3618 = ~NO, You won't RAPE me, YOU'D RAPE ME LIKE THAT DWARF!! I must get OUT OF HERE!! AWAY FROM YOU!!~
@3619 = ~(Half naked, Imoen crawls away from you as fast as she can) Y-YOU'RE A MONSTER!!~
@3620 = ~(Imoen didn't expect this at all. She thought you were playing along, and not seeking to punish her.)~ [MRImNig2]
@3621 = ~(You slap her cheek very hard, her lip beginning to bleed immediately. She gapes at you utterly surprised.)~
@3622 = ~(Go on roughly slapping her face in a frenzy.)~
@3623 = ~Now we are even.~
@3624 = ~Wow I think I went too far...! I didn't want to hit you that hard, I swear!~
@3625 = ~(Slapping her is not enough to quell your anger. You think she deserves further punishment, so you begin to tear her clothes off so that you can have your way with her.)~
@3626 = ~(She stares at you with growing fear in her eyes) What-- what are you doing!?~
@3627 = ~(She stares at you with despising) You-- you lie! I saw the look in your eyes, the hatred burning inside you!~
@3628 = ~(Her look softens, but just a little, as she tries to be understanding) You're a beast, <CHARNAME>. You're losing control of yourself and if you don't get your soul back soon, I don't know what might happen.~
@3629 = ~Now I know teasing you is a bad idea. I'll help you get back to normal, but... don't expect me to trust you anymore...~
@3630 = ~At least until you get your soul back...~
@3631 = ~WE ARE EVEN??? (She spits blood at you) It was a simple joke, <CHARNAME>!! Or is it that you can't understand the meaning of the word "joke"??~
@3632 = ~Stay away from me, you mindless asshole. Hmpf. Rest assured I won't try to slip a bit of humor into your merciless life again.~
@3633 = ~(Imoen isn't stupid. Now that she is over her initial surprise and realizes what you intend she acts quickly to defend herself.)~
@3634 = ~(She casts stoneskin on herself and plants her agile feet on your stomach, and pushes with all of her adrenaline-boosted strength, throwing you back far enough so she can jump out of your immediate reach.)~
@3635 = ~What got into you, <CHARNAME>!!?? I'm not your enemy, I'm your friend, Imoen!!~
@3636 = ~(Get hold of your instincts) I-Imoen...? I... I don't know what happened to me...~
@3637 = ~You soak me with cold water, I punch some teeth out of your mouth. Fair exchange, I think; now we are even.~
@3638 = ~Aaah, no, no, (She laughs hysterically, twisting and struggling from your well-directed tickles; sometimes she manages to utter some words between the laughs.)~
@3639 = ~Stop it, STOP IT, hahahahaah! You're killing meee!~
@3640 = ~(Seeing she has taken just about all she can stand without "suffering" from it, you give her one last poke in the ribs and stop to look at her.)~
@3641 = ~(Imoen's eyes and cheeks are wet with joyful tears, and even though you have stopped tickling her she continues to giggle.)~
@3642 = ~(Looking at her, you notice how the soft light of dawn reflects off her tears; her face seems tenderly caressed by the faint rays that manage to slip between the foliage of the trees.)~
@3643 = ~(The filtered beams perform a strange dance of light and shadows over Imoen's face and skin, making her lines blur. You find yourself mesmerized by the sight and are overcome, perhaps for the first time in your life, perhaps not...)~
@3644 = ~(By the realization that Imoen is a beautiful woman. Maybe it's only the situation, but you are suddenly struck by this strange feeling. Her sweet voice... her cheerful demeanor... her tender body... her kindhearted soul... Imoen's aura itself wraps around your heart like a blanket, its warmth comforting you.)~
@3645 = ~(Lying under your own, you feel Imoen's body tremble with every giggle she articulates. When she finally stops she raises her head to look at you, a warm smile still on her face.)~
@3646 = ~(Locking gazes, you stare into each other's eyes. A fresh breeze embraces both of you like an ethereal lover. The smile slowly fades.)~
@3647 = ~<CHARNAME>... (the melodious whistle of a bird sounds just as she utters your name. The look in her eyes is different now, as she struggles against her inner self.)~
@3648 = ~(As the gentle wind blows one of her cherry locks off of her face, you feel the urge to do something... anything.)~ [MRImRom3]
@3649 = ~(This is your opportunity; Take off the first of her clothes you can find and begin to undress her, adoringly fondling her as you do so.)~
@3650 = ~(Get a grip. This situation has almost gotten out of hand; stand up to prevent whatever could happen between the two of you) Aah, we should get moving already...~
@3651 = ~(Lovingly stroke her cheek, drying one of her tears with your thumb. You give in to desire, and slowly lower your head to softly, tenderly bond her trembling lips with yours in a long, ardent kiss.)~
@3652 = ~(Remain silent and motionless, uncertain about what to do.)~
@3653 = ~Imoen, I...~
@3654 = ~Shhhh... (she puts her index finger on your lips and smiles) Nothing needs to be said...~
@3655 = ~(The breeze stops, the sun fades, the birds fall silent. The mood has gone.)~
@3656 = ~Better if we *ahem* get going... (She quickly stands up and helps you to do the same, cheerful as always) we have some souls to get back, lil' <PRO_BROTHERSISTER>...~
@3657 = ~(You let time pass. The breeze stops, the sun fades, the birds fall silent. The mood has gone.)~
@3658 = ~<CHARNAME>... you are hurting my leg...!~
@3659 = ~(You quickly roll off of her and stand up so her legs can be free.)~
@3660 = ~Better if we *ahem* get going... (She quickly stands up, seemingly cheerful as always) we have some souls to get back, lil' <PRO_BROTHERSISTER>...~
@3661 = ~*sigh*...~
@3662 = ~(As you stand up the breeze stops, the sunlight fades, the birds fall silent. The moment is gone.)~
@3663 = ~Oh, yeah, of course! Better if we *ahem* get going... (She quickly stands up, seemingly cheerful as always) we have some souls to get back, lil' <PRO_BROTHERSISTER>...!~
@3664 = ~(Imoen watches as you begin to undress her, but her sense of reason overpowers her yearnings, seeming to suddenly become aware of what you two were about to do) N-no, <CHARNAME>, please stop that...~
@3665 = ~Please don't ruin what we have... alright...? Let's... let's just stay friends like we've always been. It's the right thing to do...~
@3666 = ~<CHARNAME>... this... this is wrong... we... we can't do this... we cannot...~
@3667 = ~(She speaks between kisses, barely managing to not lose control and forget about everything.)~
@3668 = ~<CHARNAME>... let's not... do this to each other...~
@3669 = ~But I want you, Imoen.~
@3670 = ~But... I want to do it, Imoen... I truly want...~
@3671 = ~Imoen... I can't hold back any longer... I love you and... I want you...~
@3672 = ~Imoen... I can't help myself, I've finally realized that... I love you and... I want us to be together this way...~
@3673 = ~Imoen... you've become the most important thing in my life, more than my soul itself... I'd give up my life for your happiness so... I'll agree to whatever you decide...~
@3674 = ~It's difficult, Imoen, but... you're right. We... cannot do this. (Move away from her gently.)~
@3675 = ~(Imoen appears to be turning something over in her mind. Maybe thoughts of all those times you weren't there to support her or times when you didn't show any interest in her.)~
@3676 = ~N-No...~
@3677 = ~You... no, NO! (She pushes you away definitively.)~
@3678 = ~After all the times you treated me like I was some nameless dog...! (She quickly stands up) Why should I... 'give in' to somebody like you?~
@3679 = ~I don't even know how is it possible that things got this far...~
@3680 = ~(Imoen simply walks away from you with a frown on her face.)~
@3681 = ~I... I... (Imoen seems to become aware of her surroundings again, and you feel the 'mood' has faded.)~
@3682 = ~I think... we shouldn't... you've been nice to me and all but... when I think of you even now...~
@3683 = ~I can only see you as my friend... and my *brother*... I'm sorry, <CHARNAME> but... it just can't be...~
@3684 = ~Sorry.~

@3689 = ~I... Mmmm... we shouldn't... but... mmmmhh...! It's... it's so... so good... I feel like... I belong in your arms...~
@3690 = ~(Imoen just moans in pleasure.)~
@3691 = ~Yes... I...~
@3692 = ~(She opens her eyes, as if she had suddenly come aware of her surroundings, of what she is saying, and of the very compromising position she is in.)~
@3693 = ~N-- no... No. We are brother and sister, <CHARNAME>... it's not right, and you know it... I'm... very sorry... I wish it was otherwise but...~
@3694 = ~(She gets up and walks away from you.)~
@3695 = ~(She opens her eyes, as if she has suddenly become aware of her surroundings, of what she is saying, and of the very compromising position she is in.)~

@3698 = ~Let's... let's just forget about everything... and everyone else...~
@3699 = ~Mmmmmh... let our dreams... come true...~
@3700 = ~(You part reluctantly with a final kiss, and roll off to one side before standing up. She still looks at you longingly, but knows that it just can't be.)~
@3701 = ~Thanks for that, <CHARNAME>... I think... I don't think I could have done that. We have a precious friendship... let's keep it like that, eh?~
@3702 = ~(She stands up too, fixing her messy hair and clothes looking a little embarrassed. Smiling at you, Imoen gives you a peck on your cheek) Let's go on, brother.~
@3703 = ~(You part reluctantly with a final kiss, and roll off to one side before standing up. She still looks at your curves longingly, but knows that it just can't be.)~
@3704 = ~(She stands up too, fixing her messy hair and clothes looking a little embarrassed. Smiling at you, Imoen gives you a peck on your cheek and a hug) Let's go on, sister.~
@3705 = ~(Imoen is startled by your touch, but immediately relaxes in your arms... or at least it's what you think until she takes your hands and gently makes you release her.)~
@3706 = ~(She turns to look directly at you; she seems ashamed, the anguish clearly reflected in her beautiful sea eyes. Imoen opens her mouth, here lower lip trembling a bit, but doesn't manage to utter any sound. Exhaling nervously, she lowers her gaze and looks away.)~
@3707 = ~(Imoen has just made the most difficult decision in her life. Gathering her willpower she finally speaks, still staring to nowhere for she knows that looking into your eyes would break her determination. A word, a simple word escapes from her mouth, a single word that reveals the agony of her decision.)~
@3708 = ~Don't...~
@3709 = ~(Her voice utters this word as a mere whisper. Then, she turns and walks away. You can only watch as you know that there is nothing you can say that will make her change her mind.)~
@3710 = ~(But hope can't die so easily...)~
@3711 = ~(Imoen has been avoiding you since the ominous morning in the forest, only talking to you when it was absolutely necessary and only taking interest in retrieving her soul.)~
@3712 = ~(Now it is restored, she seems healthier, yet not happier. Apparently, something even more important to her than her very soul has been weighing on her mind day and night.)~
@3713 = ~(You know exactly what is troubling her... but you don't know where her heart lies. Perhaps she regrets what you did together... perhaps she feels guilty... perhaps she feels uncomfortable with you, maybe she despises you and herself, or is simply waiting for you to tell her you love her. It could be any of these possibilities, or none of them.)~
@3714 = ~(Whatever her feelings, it is making her very miserable. You understand that only your words can ease her inner pain...)~

@3720 = ~Just don't worry Imoen, I'll take you out of here as soon as I can... just try to be strong and endure it until we reach the surface... do you think you'll be able to?~
@3721 = ~Don't worry, Jaheira will cast some healing spells on you and you'll be able to stand it until we reach the surface...~

@3724 = ~I don't know... it's no normal ache, it's like something is... is piercing my very mind... like small needles in the back of my head, or a knife cutting slowly into my brain, painfully stabbing my thoughts... I don't know what he did, <CHARNAME>, but it sure is killing me...~
@3725 = ~That bastard will pay for this... Is there something I can do to alleviate the pain?~
@3726 = ~We must get to the surface at once.~
@3727 = ~I won't leave until I find this... "man" and make him suffer for what he has done to us both.~
@3728 = ~(You snort and roll your eyes) that sounds quite disgusting... let's move on.~
@3729 = ~Actually... I feel the closer I am to you the more bearable the pain becomes, it's like your presence... eases it...~
@3730 = ~I don't know why that is but... I'd be grateful if you stayed close to me... please...~

@3731 = ~Of course, don't be afraid, I won't move from your side, I promise.~

@3738 = ~(Imoen stares at you, then bursts out) ... Just what's your problem, you moron!? I tell you I'm dying in pain and you act like you don't care the least bit! Urgh... you can be a real arse at times, I don't know why I'm still with you!~
@3739 = ~Hmpf... Let's just go on so I can leave this damned place, huh!?~
@3740 = ~Finally! The exit, the beloved surface... I can already feel the pain fading...!~ [MRImRom4]

@3743 = ~(An involuntary shiver runs up Imoen's spine) It's *him*!! Oh great, just when I thought we were free of that man... I-- I don't wanna be near that "Irenicus" again... just thinking of him makes me relive the horrible torture...~

@3747 = ~(Imoen stares at you) Urrgh, just drop that thing, stop playing the "I'm her elder brother, gotta protect Imoen" role, huh!? You don't have to "protect me", I can fend for myself pretty well!~
@3748 = ~Sheesh...~
@3749 = ~(Imoen stares at you) Urrgh, just drop that thing, stop playing the "I'm her elder sister, gotta protect Imoen" role, huh!? You don't have to "protect me", I can fend for myself pretty well!~

@3791 = ~I would never take offense from one such as *you*, kivvil. And that was NOT a compliment. You are too low to be able to offend me.~
@3792 = ~I don't understand all that mystery, liggr. Playing an instrument is perhaps the most useless activity I can think of.~
@3793 = ~Hah, this is even worse! This is a worthless waste of time, <CHARNAME>. I already regret agreeing to stay in this damned place.~
@3794 = ~Aah, it's so beautiful it reminds me of the time when Uncle Squishedberry challenged a traveling minstrel who had a passion for turnips to a bagpipe contest. They were both such windbags that they played non-stop from dawn to dusk never tiring. The contest, which likely could have gone on for days, was ended abruptly when Aunt Squishedberry pierced their instruments with her cooking knife. It was a terrible, terrible loss...~
@3795 = ~You should come over to my home and play in front of the whole family. I'm sure they'd enjoy it...! Well, except Granny Jansen, she's completely deaf...~
@3796 = ~Look, the monkey does have some digital dexterity after all; she knows how to use her opposable fingers...! (The only ability she has managed to develop in all these years of worthless living, I can be sure.)~
@3797 = ~So the simian is able to follow the music with some coherent words too...! (These inferior monkeys are learning too fast for my taste.)~
@3798 = ~Arr this is stupid! We should be killin' some bloody foes instead of sittin' here huggin' trees!~
@3799 = ~Alright so the girl is done with her bloody music! Can we kill sumthin' NOW!?~
@3800 = ~Ooh, it's such a nice thing. Boo likes it a lot, right Boo? Of course!~
@3801 = ~Boo is enchanted by your singing, Imoen. We both want to hear more!~
@3802 = ~Ahh, I wish I had known this before... such a wonderful style, such a delicious technique, such a delightful melody...! My precious Imoen, you are made for music.~
@3803 = ~I'm serious here, my little bird. You should consider playing and singing professionally. We would be a marvelous match indeed.~
@3804 = ~You handle that instrument as well as your magic, young one. Your potential is really impressive. I wonder what else you can do that you have not shown us yet.~
@3805 = ~As I might already have said, you'll never stop astounding me, Imoen.~
@3806 = ~Very impressive indeed, Imoen. I'm surprised you could keep this marvelous thing to yourself all this time. (Mazzy smiles) You have been too selfish!~
@3807 = ~That song is something to think on, Imoen. I don't believe I agree with its lyrics though...~
@3808 = ~Incredible! Promise you will play more frequently from now on, Imoen.~
@3809 = ~Now I am really surprised. I never suspected you had such a wonderful voice.~
@3810 = ~(You pry one eye open just in time to see a wall of water heading right for your face. You can do nothing but watch it come through your half-opened eyes.)~
@3811 = ~(As you anticipated in your brief moment of semi-consciousness, the water is REALLY cold. With a shout, you roll out of your soaked sleeping bag.)~
@3812 = ~(After the short chase, you are lucky enough to catch the hem of her skirt and drag her to the mossy ground. She tries to roll away from you, but she only causes you both to tumble over the grass together.)~
@3813 = ~(As you wrestle with her in the soft turf, she cannot stop laughing. The dizzying whirls finally stop when you manage to roll on top of her.)~
@3814 = ~(She still laughs as she playfully battles so you won't pin her to the ground, but you sit astride her thighs, not letting her escape. Still struggling under your body, she is unable to restrain her giggling and tosses her head back, the gentle lawn serving as a soft, fresh pillow.)~
@3815 = ~Got you!~
@3816 = ~(You reach out for her lips, and find no opposition at all. Your kiss is rewarded with equal passion, equal longing, as you both enjoy a kiss that seems to last forever.)~
@3817 = ~(Your mouths finally separate, but only to kiss each other all over the face, eyes shut, mind lost...)~
@3818 = ~(As you gently hold her nape you kiss her nose, her throat, her forehead, her eyelids; and she does the same, wrapping her arms around your neck and pulling you closer.)~
@3819 = ~(In a last desperate effort to respond to her sense of reason and stop what seems inevitable, she makes a weak attempt at pushing you away, but to no avail.)~
@3820 = ~(The only thing she manages to do is utter a few words between kisses...)~
@3821 = ~(You awaken to find that Imoen is no longer lying by your side. You look around to see her standing just a few paces away from where you lie, staring up at some birds in their nest, completely absorbed in her thoughts.)~ [MRImRom6]
@3822 = ~(You quietly approach her from behind and lovingly embrace her, kissing her head.)~
@3823 = ~Imoen...?~
@3824 = ~(Imoen looks in Aerie's direction) Yeah...? Something you wanted from me, Aerie?~
@3825 = ~W-- well, it was just that... <CHARNAME> didn't talk much about you when we were coming for you, <PRO_HESHE> only told me that you grew up together...~
@3826 = ~Ah, so ya wanna know 'bout the beautiful an' mysterious Imoen, right? (She giggles.)~
@3827 = ~Heheh, y-- yes, sort of... I'm simply curious... but if you don't want to I don't mind, of course...~
@3828 = ~Oh, no, please, I *always* enjoy talking about myself, mind ya!~
@3829 = ~So anything ya wanna know in particular? Or d'you want the full "Imoen bio"?~
@3830 = ~Well you could start with that, and then we'll see what comes next, alright?~
@3831 = ~(Imoen grins gently at her) Aerie, I think you an' I will get along just fine.~
@3832 = ~Hahah, I certainly hope so...~
@3833 = ~(Imoen clears her throat, and begins to speak as if she was telling the most marvelous of stories.)~
@3834 = ~It all began long ago, when knights crossed the skies mounted on flying dragons and dreadful wizards razed the lands...~
@3835 = ~(Aerie laughs at this grandiloquent start, and goes on listening... they talk together mainly about Imoen's childhood, and a little bit about Aerie's past; very little however for obvious reasons.)~
@3836 = ~(Sometimes their voices drop to a whisper, and you occasionally hear a "<CHARNAME> did *what*?" among giggles...)~
@3837 = ~(You can't help but wonder what embarrassing stories Imoen is telling her about you.)~
@3838 = ~Hey Aerie watch out, look at the... (Imoen gets a better look at her) huh? Aerie, ya okay? Is... is that a tear on your cheek?~
@3839 = ~A lil' bit, to tell the truth...~
@3840 = ~Yeah... I can't believe all the spare time some players have...~
@3841 = ~W-- what? N-- no, no, of course not...! (Aerie quickly dries the tears that were wetting her face.)~
@3842 = ~Don't worry Aerie, there's no shame in crying... please tell me what troubles you...~
@3843 = ~It's... it's that... oh I feel so childish, I must appear very weak to you...~
@3844 = ~I-- I was lost in memories... of my past as an Avariel... and I couldn't hold back my tears even though I really tried...~
@3845 = ~It must be very painful for you...~
@3846 = ~Yes, yes it is...! I can't stand it, being tied to the ground like this when I could be flying above buildings and clouds now...~
@3847 = ~I feel miserable every time I take a bath, every time I wear a different robe, every time I *feel* these... these *monstrosities* on my back!~
@3848 = ~Oh... (Imoen puts a hand on Aerie's arm supportively, looking very moved by her words) Aerie...~
@3849 = ~I'm sorry Imoen, I apologise for telling you all this... you don't deserve my whining, it's something no one deserves in fact...(Tears begin to flood her eyes again.)~
@3850 = ~Aerie, c'mon... don't be so-- (Imoen's words are interrupted by the fallen Avariel, speaking between sobs.)~
@3851 = ~No, no, I don't deserve your compassion, I'm a wretch, I'm the disgrace of the Avariel... (she shrugs Imoen's hand off and turns around covering her face with her hands) my wings were torn from me, and with them my pride, my reason to live...~
@3852 = ~I should just... just sit and rot here where I am!~
@3853 = ~(Imoen frowns. She puts her hand on Aerie's shoulder again, this time gripping it harder to force the elven girl to look at her.)~
@3854 = ~Aerie. (Her gaze is hard, determined) Look at me, look into my eyes. what do you see?~
@3855 = ~(Aerie, surprised by this question, looks at her blankly.)~
@3856 = ~I... I don't...~
@3857 = ~Well I'll tell you what you see. Nothing. Absolutely nothing, because that's what's left inside me. That and the memories of hours and hours of incessant torture, the worst you could ever imagine in the craziest of your dreams.~
@3858 = ~My very soul has been stripped from me. I feel hollow inside every second of every minute of every hour of my existence, and that feeling grows with each day that goes by.~
@3859 = ~Without my soul, I am empty. And the emptiness threatens to swallow me every time I close my eyes.~
@3860 = ~Now, do I go moping around because of this? Am I obsessed with it, allowing depression to consume what remains of my body? No. I simply work to get my soul back, because I *know* I will.~
@3861 = ~Oh Imoen... I... I didn't know--~
@3862 = ~Aerie, I know you can't get your wings back. But what you can do is work to get new ones.~
@3863 = ~B-- but I... what... what do you mean?~
@3864 = ~I'm speaking in metaphors here, Aerie. Get new wings, get a new reason to live; find in the new life you've been forced into something that keeps you moving forward, just like everyone else does.~
@3865 = ~Don't think your life as an Avariel is over, Aerie. Better to think that your life as a "normal" elf has started.~
@3866 = ~(Aerie is stunned into silence by Imoen's blunt assessment of her life and emotions. She is trying to assimilate everything Imoen has told her, something that is not easy for the former Avariel.)~
@3867 = ~Please, let me think... let me think for a while...~
@3868 = ~Of course, Aerie. Take your time finding your feathers...~
@3869 = ~(Aerie can do nothing but smile sadly at that last comment.)~
@3870 = ~(You overheard the entire conversation; listening to Imoen give sisterly advice to someone is something you don't think you've ever witnessed before.)~
@3871 = ~(It is now obvious to you that she has changed a lot from that happy-go-lucky girl that left Candlekeep with you...)~
@3872 = ~(Or maybe the word would not be "changed", but "grown". Hidden behind her usual 'childish' attitude now lies a true vault of wisdom and intelligence that few know about.)~
@3873 = ~(There is much more to Imoen than she lets on.)~
@3874 = ~Imoen...~
@3875 = ~I'm sorry.~
@3876 = ~Huh? Why?~
@3877 = ~F-- for being so self-centered last time we talked. I was so immersed in my own problems that I didn't see everyone has problems of their own, many of them much worse than mine.~
@3878 = ~And... and also, thanks for talking to me and caring about me...~
@3879 = ~(Imoen smiles warmly at her.)~
@3880 = ~Aerie, if there was someone that should apologize, it's me for being so rude to you. But...~
@3881 = ~Tell me, have ya thought 'bout everything we spoke of...?~
@3882 = ~(It's obvious Aerie was expecting this question) Yes, yes I have. That's why I want to thank you with all my heart, Imoen. You have opened my eyes. I-- I don't know what to live for, but you have made me see there's no point in whining about my lost wings.~
@3883 = ~And... and I've started to "collect feathers" for my new ones (She smiles at Imoen.)~
@3884 = ~Is that so? Why tell me then!~
@3885 = ~W-well, I don't know, I've... I've been thinking about those around me... about people that walk the land, and I've been trying to see the true reasons for their actions.~
@3886 = ~That's a good start.~
@3887 = ~Everyone looks for something... some look for power, others wealth, or love... and a very few for the good of others...~
@3888 = ~Others for glory, or the glory of their god... everyone has a dream... and actually, I have been wondering...~
@3889 = ~W-- what is yours, Imoen? Apart of having your soul back, I mean...~
@3890 = ~Uh, my dream? (She seems thoughtful for a while) Ummm, I can't decide between having a hamster, or being offensively rich and powerful... maybe I'll choose both, hehehee!~
@3891 = ~(Aerie purses her lips) Oh Imoen, I'm trying to be serious here...~
@3892 = ~Oh, alright, alright... tell ya what, find a dream of your own, and then I promise I'll tell ya 'bout my dream.~
@3893 = ~(Aerie thinks on it briefly, and then smiles.)~
@3894 = ~You have a deal!~
@3895 = ~Good!~
@3896 = ~(You hear nothing more, but see that they keep talking in whispers to each other, leaving the dream issue aside.)~
@3897 = ~(Imoen and Aerie are becoming very good friends indeed.)~
@3898 = ~Psst, hey, hey Aerie...~
@3899 = ~Yes?~
@3900 = ~Sshhh! Just listen, it'll be fun...~
@3901 = ~(Imoen approaches her and starts to whisper something into her ear. They both speak softly enough so <CHARNAME> won't hear it.)~
@3902 = ~What? Are you sure...?~
@3903 = ~Shh! Just... (She keeps mumbling things to her.)~
@3904 = ~N-no, no way, I won't do that, <PRO_HESHE> might get angry...!~
@3905 = ~Oh c'mon, we'll have some laughs...!~
@3906 = ~I don't know...~
@3907 = ~<PRO_HESHE> won't get mad at you, I promise... you'll be the perfect distraction, <PRO_HESHE>'ll never suspect anything from you!~
@3908 = ~Oh alright, but I really hope you know what you are doing...~
@3909 = ~Of course I do, c'mon!~
@3910 = ~(As for Imoen, she can barely stand from all she is laughing. Some of the things that were inside your backpack are now in her arms; the rest is on the ground by her feet.)~ [MRImRom2]
@3911 = ~(She is laughing so hard that she is barely able to speak) <CHARNAME>... <CHARNAME> I wish ya could... ya could have seen... the look... on your face when ya opened... ooohhh!!~
@3912 = ~*My* idea? Well, you rigged up that "ellinose" story or whatever...! I just told ya to distract <PRO_HIMHER>!~
@3913 = ~(When Aerie begins to clean it, Imoen approaches. She winks at you, smiles and then kisses your cheek too.)~
@3914 = ~Here ya go (She gives you everything back) Thanks, <CHARNAME>... y'know, she really needed something like that...~
@3915 = ~Didya notice she didn't stutter at all? She's a born actress if you ask me...~
@3916 = ~(Both of them have smiles on their faces now: ones that reflect true happiness. You are not used to seeing that in those that accompany you.)~
@3917 = ~Bah, don't worry about it, <PRO_HESHE>'ll be fine again soon. <PRO_HESHE>'s suffered worse ones from me! (she chuckles.)~
@3918 = ~(When Aerie begins to clean it, Imoen approaches. She winks at you, smiles and then kisses your cheek.)~
@3919 = ~Didya notice she didn't stutter at all? She's a natural born actress if ya ask me...~
@3920 = ~(No matter what you said, as you look at their smiling faces, you feel the bonds among you tighten further. It's a very pleasant feeling traveling with a party this united.)~
@3921 = ~Huh? No way!~
@3922 = ~Erm, <CHARNAME>... I need to talk to you for a moment, it is really urgent.~
@3923 = ~Go on then.~
@3924 = ~Maybe later, Aerie, I really don't have time to talk to you right now.~
@3925 = ~Aerie, I've ordered you not to talk to me.~
@3926 = ~I know, but I insist that it is important for everyone, our equipment is in real danger as we speak.~
@3927 = ~Good, because our equipment is in real danger even as we speak.~
@3928 = ~(As Aerie talks, Imoen quietly sneaks up behind <CHARNAME>.)~
@3929 = ~I have just discovered some sort of very small worms living in my backpack. They are called "Elinisia Bresopharius" and are common in the place where I come from... they are a very dangerous plague indeed. The thing is that they eat almost everything, so... most of my belongings are gone now.~
@3930 = ~(Imoen is almost beside <CHARNAME>, walking so quietly that a cat would make more noise than she is.)~
@3931 = ~They reproduce very quickly, so it's probable that they've gotten into all of our packs and containers... (Aerie somehow manages to keep a straight face while saying all of this even though she is able to see what her accomplice is up to.)~
@3932 = ~We all should check our packs then, just in case the Elinisia is there. For all we know everything in our backpacks might have disappeared already! (As the elf says this, Imoen is gone already from <CHARNAME>'s side.)~
@3933 = ~Whoa are you serious? Let's check and hope there's nothing amiss...~
@3934 = ~Hmm... I've never heard of that, but it won't hurt to check.~
@3935 = ~My belongings!! My precious, precious belongings!! (You check immediately.)~
@3936 = ~I've never heard of such thing, it actually sounds quite stupid...~
@3937 = ~Aerie, don't be ridiculous, stop talking rubbish. Shut up and keep walking.~
@3938 = ~Oh alright, but don't blame me when you find out there is nothing inside your bag...~
@3939 = ~It is indeed. They are very rare around here, I don't know how they got this far.~
@3940 = ~They were consumed by these... creatures. There is no way to get our items back now.~
@3941 = ~I would like to say that you can buy it all again but... they also eat money, if you take my meaning...~
/* new strings depending on intelligence: 5236 - 5242 */
@3942 = ~(Yes, you don't need to check to know your money bag is filled with this strange purple substance...)~
@3943 = ~(And both the strange substance and the strange story begin to *stink*...)~
@3944 = ~(Stink of *Imoen*.)~
@3945 = ~(Your expression is too much for either Aerie or Imoen to bear. Both their restrained smiles burst, almost simultaneously, into peals of laughter.)~
@3946 = ~(Aerie laughs lightheartedly, something you had not heard yet from her in all the time she has traveled with you.)~
@3947 = ~(More laughs. No matter what you say, they just can't stop themselves.)~
@3948 = ~Oh, <CHARNAME>, I... I didn't want to but... (She giggles gleefully) Imoen's idea was too good to waste...!~
@3949 = ~Well, yeah... (She giggles again.)~
@3950 = ~Please, don't be angry, <CHARNAME>, it was only a little joke...~
@3951 = ~I'm not angry, I love a joke from time to time too, even practical ones... and even if I'm *always* the target!~
@3952 = ~Oh, alright... but now it's time for *both of you* to clean this mess up, because I'm certainly not going to do it!~
@3953 = ~Forget about me. Let's go on.~
@3954 = ~Heheheh, that's a relief, I really feared you'd get mad at us! (She kisses your cheek.)~
@3955 = ~Here, let me take this and clean it up... it's the least I can do!~
@3956 = ~Oh, please don't get mad... let me clean it up, alright?~
@3957 = ~Oh c'mon Imoen, it's the least we can do!~
@3958 = ~Thanks for not getting mad, <CHARNAME>. (She kisses your cheek and takes your backpack to clean it.)~
@3959 = ~(Actually, it does feel lighter... maybe you should check, just in case.)~
@3960 = ~(You take your backpack in your hands, which is much lighter than it aught to be, and open it... to see it contains only a strange violet substance, like... small sticky filaments...)~
@3961 = ~(But everything else you had in there is gone.)~
@3962 = ~W-what happened!? My things, where are they!?~
@3963 = ~Hmmmm... this is just too strange...~
@3964 = ~This is strange, very strange indeed... actually, it looks... like one of IMOEN'S schemes!~
@3965 = ~Aerie, you were right! What will we do now??~
@3966 = ~(They keep laughing in joy. They look extremely happy, but no one could say the same about you...)~
@3967 = ~(Be understanding and join them.) Y-- you got me good...! Heheheeh, oh, you two are too much for me...~
@3968 = ~(Get a little annoyed, although you know this will only fuel their laughter) It isn't that funny, you know...?~
@3969 = ~(Act mature) Imoen, you will never grow up. And as for you Aerie... I never thought you would be that kind of person. I am very disappointed.~
@3970 = ~(Get mad) Y-you pair of bitches, you're trying to cheat me out of my belongings!! I will not tolerate this treatment, get out of MY party, AT ONCE!~
@3971 = ~Wow, that's a new one, you having fun at my expense. Ha-ha, ho-ho. Let's go on.~
@3972 = ~Aerie, would ya tell me about something that I just can't help but wonder about...? It's part of... your past. I really wanna know...~
@3973 = ~Alright... go ahead...~
@3974 = ~It might stir up some... "hard" memories, are you sure...?~
@3975 = ~I... I'll keep in mind what you have told me, Imoen... they are just that; memories. N-- nothing more.~
@3976 = ~Right, there it goes... Aerie, umm... what was it like to... to fly?~
@3977 = ~(Aerie keeps silent for a moment. The question has surprised her, but she makes the effort to find a satisfactory reply.)~
@3978 = ~It was like... it was...~
@3979 = ~Freedom. It was complete and total freedom.~
@3980 = ~It's hard to describe how it feels to be able to go anywhere one pleases at anytime one wants. It was so exhilarating to see everything from above; mountains, forests, rivers, even cities... all so tiny it seemed they would fit in the palm of one of my hands.~
@3981 = ~And the wind too... it caresses the skin like... like an ethereal lover, all around yourself... it's unbelievable...~
@3982 = ~Oh... it sounds great...~
@3983 = ~(Aerie smiles with bitterness) You understand now why I put so much of myself in my wings, don't you...?~
@3984 = ~I certainly do, Aerie... I... I really wish I were ya.~
@3985 = ~... What? W-- why would anyone want to be an... an Avariel without wings!?~
@3986 = ~Ya serious?? I'd love to know exactly what you experienced, I'd love to have such marvelous memories and enjoy them whenever I wanted to!~
@3987 = ~You're so lucky...~
@3988 = ~Well I... I hadn't put it under that kind of light before...~
@3989 = ~(They walk on in silence. You can see, more than hear, Imoen whispering to herself.)~
@3990 = ~I knew you hadn't, Aerie...~
@3991 = ~(You suddenly hear some giggling; you look back to see Imoen and Aerie talking in whispers and laughing from time to time.)~
@3992 = ~(They've been talking a lot lately. When you asked Imoen about their conversations one night, she just answered 'Girl talk' and refused to say anything more about it.)~
@3993 = ~(However, you could probably overhear what they're talking about now, if you wanted to; they are so immersed in their chat they won't notice you if you drift closer to them.)~
@3994 = ~(You might not have a chance like this for a long time... approach them discreetly.)~
@3995 = ~Hey you two, what are you talking about?~
@3996 = ~(Respect their privacy.)~
@3997 = ~(As you hear another giggle you decide to let them talk in private as they wish.)~
@3998 = ~(Both are startled by your question; they reply at the same time.)~
@3999 = ~(They both giggle again and then glance at each other with a look of complicity.)~
@4000 = ~(You slow your pace until they are close enough for you to overhear their conversation and then casually maintain your stride to keep them within earshot for a while.)~
@4001 = ~(This is already more than you wanted to hear...)~
@4002 = ~(You guess Imoen and Aerie would be quite angry if they find out that you have listened to everything they have said. They don't seem to have noticed you at all, but pushing your luck might not be a wise idea.)~
/* Pointless choices and consequences: 5245-5294 */
@4003 = ~(You quicken your steps and put some distance between you and them. Thinking of everything Imoen said about you causes an indefinable wave of emotions to wash over your body...)~
@4004 = ~(It is very gratifying to know that you are making Imoen immensely happy. Her expression as she opened her heart to Aerie will stay in your memory for a long time.)~
@4005 = ~Nothing...!~
@4006 = ~Pah!!~
@4007 = ~Muh!~
@4008 = ~Y-- yeah... I guess so... but, when you met <PRO_HIMHER>, didn't you actually... y'know "try to get to know <PRO_HIMHER>"? (She elbows her in the ribs winking at her --a tear escaping her eye when she winks--, trying to make Aerie admit this.)~
@4009 = ~B-- but isn't Haer'Dalis your lover...? I guess he's really passionate, isn't he?~
@4010 = ~(Imoen giggles at that.)~
@4011 = ~And Imoen... (Aerie smirks mischievously again, this time even naughtily...)~
@4012 = ~What kind of... things... does <PRO_HESHE> do to you...?~
@4013 = ~Aerie...! (Even whispered, Imoen's exclamation is heard by everyone around her.)~
@4014 = ~Ohhh, come on, I want to know!~
@4015 = ~Then why dontcha ask *<PRO_HIMHER>*?~
@4016 = ~Don't be silly Imoen, just tell!~
@4017 = ~Oh, fine, you win... but you're becoming too naughty even for my taste...!~
@4018 = ~I think you are corrupting me, "cute little Imoen"...! (They both snigger again.)~
@4019 = ~Well, last time you know what <PRO_HESHE> did...?~
@4020 = ~What, what!?~
@4021 = ~<PRO_HESHE>... (Imoen puts a hand on the elf's pointy ear and whispers very quietly.)~
@4022 = ~(Aerie's face shows a mixture of astonishment and disbelief.)~
@4023 = ~*Really*...? Is that even *possible*!? (At Imoen's vehement nodding, they both giggle once again.)~
@4024 = ~Nothing!~
@4025 = ~... Really?~
@4026 = ~No kiddin'!~
@4027 = ~(Aerie giggles again.)~
@4028 = ~Alright, now the big question... (She grins mischievously.)~
@4029 = ~I have to know, Imoen... how-is-<PRO_HESHE>-in-bed??~
@4030 = ~Oh Aerie that's gross...! what happened to the innocent and naive girl that rescued me from Spellhold? (Imoen says while tittering.)~
@4031 = ~Oh come on, Imoen, don't tease and just tell!~
@4032 = ~Well I can't really comment on that, 'cause we've hardly done 'it' in a bed!~
@4033 = ~whoa, and isn't that uncomfortable?~
@4034 = ~When you're driven by... *ahem* well, you know... it doesn't matter at all... 'specially with <PRO_HIMHER>...~
@4035 = ~Oh how sweet...!~
@4036 = ~Yeah, with <PRO_HIMHER> it's like... don't know, all that exists in that moment is us. Absolutely nothing more exists for me but <PRO_HIMHER> when we... y-- you know...~
@4037 = ~Oooh!~
@4038 = ~<PRO_HESHE> knows exactly what to do, and how to do it, depending on my mood... oh Aerie, we were made for each other!~
@4039 = ~<CHARNAME> can be all sweetness and all passion at the same time... (Imoen is beginning to get teary-eyed.)~
@4040 = ~I... I love <PRO_HIMHER> so much, Aerie... I-- I don't know... I don't know how could I be without <PRO_HIMHER> before... I can't imagine how it was now...~
@4041 = ~Oh, Aerie, <PRO_HESHE>'s made me so happy...! (She smiles and sniffles. She is almost crying from emotion.)~
@4042 = ~Oh, oh Imoen, you are so lucky...~
@4043 = ~Yes but... it's not the same... what we have will probably never come close to what you two share...~
@4044 = ~What you enjoy is so special... I-- I wish I had someone like <CHARNAME> that could make me feel like you do now...~
@4045 = ~Well, y-- yes I did but... our personalities didn't fit at all, I mean... he couldn't stand all my whining about my... my wings... I see now that only someone with incredible patience, or someone completely deaf, would have put up with it, heheh...~
@4046 = ~Well, no... I d-- don't fancy girls like you do, Imoen... but with all you've been telling me I'm beginning to have second thoughts, heheh...!~
@4047 = ~(Above the din and commotion of the market, one voice stronger and richer than the others can be heard. Its deep, vehement tone is so intense that it catches your attention, making your head turns towards it.)~
@4048 = ~(Glancing to where the voice comes, you see with surprise its source is a rather corpulent woman who has positioned her stall above the Adventurers' Mart. She yells with all the power of her large lungs, advertising her wares in the promenade.)~
@4049 = ~(You approach the merchant, curious as to what the woman might have for sale. Imoen seems quite interested too, and tags along.)~
@4050 = ~(You begin to edge away from the woman's stall but Imoen is intent on seeing the merchants wares. Before you can get away, Imoen has positioned herself in front of the fat woman. With a sigh, you follow her.)~
@4051 = ~(You come closer to the merchant, looking for something to buy to your sweetheart. Imoen joins you; her interest in the woman's wares is evident.)~
@4052 = ~(This is just too much) Oh alright, HOW MUCH IS IT!?~
@4053 = ~(Imoen knows how to get what she wants. Under this threat, there's no other option...)~
@4054 = ~(You pay for the *stupid* ring. Imoen laughs happily, and takes your arm.)~
@4055 = ~(As you leave the woman's stall, Imoen flashes you a very mischievous grin.)~
@4056 = ~(As you are about to reply, you hear a scream from behind you.)~
@4057 = ~Nah just lookin' here... (Imoen evaluates the goods spread out on the table, glancing at them without showing any real interest.)~
@4058 = ~Not much to see though...~
@4059 = ~(You are interrupted by Imoen's elbow in your ribcage. She talks to you in a barely audible whisper, making sure the chubby Alisha can't hear her.)~
@4060 = ~Psst... <CHARNAME>, I think I found sumthin' really worth the trouble... (She gestures with her head towards a corner of the table that serves the merchant as an expository.)~
@4061 = ~(Looking in that direction, you see among some miscellaneous accessories a strange bracelet made of some unknown material. It has myriads of little carvings and symbols all over its surface.)~
@4062 = ~No! don't look that way...!~
@4063 = ~Oh well... name your price, woman.~
@4064 = ~Alright, how much?~
@4065 = ~Hmm... not so fast, I'm not interested at all.~
@4066 = ~I didn't want anything like that... I just wanted a gift for my love!~
@4067 = ~I didn't want anything like that, I just wanted to buy a gift for you...!~
@4068 = ~Oh, you're so cute... then what better gift than this, hmm?~
@4069 = ~(Imoen flutters her eyelashes and flashes you a radiant smile made of the purest innocence; she is the image of absolute loveliness.)~
@4070 = ~Oh alright... how much?~
@4071 = ~Hey quit it! I'm not going to fall for that ruse again... stop it... stop it please... (Your heart is melting with every second that passes.)~
@4072 = ~Nope... I don't think you deserve that much...~
@4073 = ~(Without waiting for your reply, she asks the woman) How much then...?~
@4074 = ~(Imoen harshly mumbles to you) Wait at least until you *know* its price!~
@4075 = ~(Without awaiting your reply, she asks the woman) How much then...?~
@4076 = ~(Ignoring your plea, Imoen pours it on, now walking her fingers up your arm as she faces you...)~
@4077 = ~(Not waiting for any reply you might have, she turns to the woman) How much then...?~
@4078 = ~Ooh, bugger...! Alright then...~
@4079 = ~WHAT!!??~
@4080 = ~Even if you *had*! We'd never buy that from you, woman!~
@4081 = ~Even if you *could*! We'd never buy that from you, woman!~
@4082 = ~You said it!! We'd never buy that from you, woman!~
@4083 = ~Are you *crazy*!? Forget it! we'll never buy it from you, woman!!~
@4084 = ~B'sides... (Imoen's expression suddenly changes, the look of annoyance disappearing from her face.)~
@4085 = ~Anyway... (Imoen's expression suddenly changes, the look of annoyance disappearing from her face.)~
@4086 = ~What I really want is... that ring over there!~
@4087 = ~(She points to a rather common jade ring nestled among the others; it's plain surface shines under the promenade's light. It doesn't seem to be anything special...)~
@4088 = ~I hadn't seen it before! Oh it reminds me of the one Puffguts had...~
@4089 = ~<CHARNAME>, <CHARNAME>, buy it, buy it!!~
@4090 = ~Um... right... fine... whatever...~
@4091 = ~Imoen, what are you up to...?~
@4092 = ~I don't want to buy it for *you*, I want to buy it for my sweetheart!~
@4093 = ~Oh well, guess that will do as a gift...~
@4094 = ~Are you nuts or what?~
@4095 = ~No.~
@4096 = ~(Imoen simply smiles at you in a strange way. Then clings to your arm and begins to shout into your ear.)~
@4097 = ~I wannit, I wannit, I wannit! BUY IT!!~
@4098 = ~(Your words are interrupted again by Imoen's elbow. She really is acting weird...)~
@4099 = ~Just BUY it!! If you don't buy it I'll scream and scream and SCREAM until your ears are pierced!!~
@4100 = ~Yaaayyy! (Imoen starts jumping around you. She's acting really weird...)~
@4101 = ~... run.~
@4102 = ~Run? Why?~
@4103 = ~Uh-oh... I have a bad feeling about this...~
@4104 = ~(Imoen can't help laughing) RUN!!~
@4105 = ~(She grabs you by the arm and drags you behind her as she starts running. In the commotion, the ring you just bought slips from your hand.)~
@4106 = ~(As she pulls you along you notice that the bracelet you had been interested in...)~
@4107 = ~(... Is around her left wrist...)~
@4108 = ~(You just hope the rest of the party will be able to track you down again after you have disappeared from this place.)~
@4109 = ~(Imoen finally stops running, and starts to laugh uncontrollably; so much that, with the exercise, her breathing is choked and she is forced to cough.)~
@4110 = ~Hahahah... did you... see... her face...!? That alone... was worth... the two hundred... gold pieces...!!~
@4111 = ~OH, are you *serious*!?~
@4112 = ~(She looks at her wrist with a proud smile) Hey, it's so neat! It fits me *perfectly*!~
@4113 = ~And I somehow feel, don't know... better! This is just too, too... WOW! You could hardly keep up with me just now, huh? I think I ran faster than I ever have before in my entire life!~
@4114 = ~Dontcha like it? That ugly, greedy woman will learn now, hah!~
@4115 = ~Imoen, what you did is really wrong. We should go back, return it to her and apologize...~
@4116 = ~You could have set all of Athkatla's guards on our tail! I don't know why they're not here already...!~
@4117 = ~I think you went a bit too far, but... oh well, the prize is worth any risk!~
@4118 = ~Yeah...! But next time warn me first, you got me by surprise...~
@4119 = ~Imoen, why you don't do that more often??~
@4120 = ~I won't tolerate such childish and irresponsible behavior anymore. I want you to leave. Immediately.~
@4121 = ~B-but <CHARNAME>!! Just look at this!~
@4122 = ~Oh all right... I'll let it go this time, but don't do anything like that again, understand? Now let's go give it back...~
@4123 = ~(Imoen frowns, tired of your uncompromising stance and high morals.)~
@4124 = ~FINE THEN! I'll go somewhere where people aren't absolute JERKS!~
@4125 = ~Rot in your mediocrity, <CHARNAME>!! (With that she runs down an alley and is quickly out of sight...)~
@4126 = ~Well I only do things like that when the reward is worth it...!~
@4127 = ~I'm not *that sort* of thief ya know!? Oh but just look at this, it's so... so *neat*!~
@4128 = ~That's the whole point, you *idiot*! Where'd the fun be then...? hehehee!~
@4129 = ~Oh but just look at this... it's so... so *neat*!~
@4130 = ~Hah, ya think I'm stupid, right <CHARNAME>?? I *knew* the guards wouldn't help her...!~
@4131 = ~I mean... didntcha notice the glances they gave her? Pure despising I tell ya...! They are probably really tired of all her yelling an' false "humbleness"...!~
@4132 = ~And b'sides, people around here already know of us, <CHARNAME>... who wouldn't notice us roaming the streets? The last thing those guards would want to do is mess with the likes of us!~
@4133 = ~So there was *no risk at all*...! (She grants you a cocky smile) Now am I smart or what...?~
@4134 = ~Well, it does make sense... buy it was wrong anyway.~
@4135 = ~You have a point there...~
@4136 = ~Well I still think it was an unnecessary risk.~
@4137 = ~HAH! Now you *must* be joking... that old hag is rich enough without this bracelet, I mean... didn't you notice all the rings or her necklace? It had a diamond the size of an *egg*, and the multifaceted cut too... do you know how much a diamond of that quality costs? If she can afford to wear that, then she surely can spare this thing!~
@4138 = ~B'sides... just look at this thing...! It's so... so *neat*!~
@4139 = ~(Oh well, at least you tried. You won't make a mountain out of this, it surely seems powerful indeed.)~
@4140 = ~(Imoen keeps looking at it for a while, examining the perfection in the carvings on the bracelet...)~
@4141 = ~All right then... if it's for the good of the group... Show me what it can do so I can determine who should use it.~
@4142 = ~Well let's see if it's powerful then. Let me use it.~
@4143 = ~Heh... looks like I "bought" you a gift after all (Wink at her.)~
@4144 = ~B-but, Imoen... I was going to give that to the one that stole my heart...~
@4145 = ~Oh well, keep it then. Let's go on, we've lost too much time already.~
@4146 = ~It surely is. Can I see it?~
@4147 = ~Hmmm... alright, but no touching, eh? I'm watching you!~
@4148 = ~(You spend some time looking at its intricate symbols... yep, it surely has power inside.)~
@4149 = ~It's great huh? Well, let's move on, we've lost too much time already!~
@4150 = ~(Imoen seems too enthusiastic about this, even for her... you can't help but wonder about the consequences of this.)~
@4151 = ~Alrighty, chief!~
@4152 = ~Oooh, sorry to hear that, that's too bad, really... buy something else then, dammit! Or maybe a hug will do, meh, I don't really care...!~
@4153 = ~Hahah... you're right... and I haven't even thanked you, although the one that should be thanked would be *me*...!~
@4154 = ~But I won't worry about the details... (She gets closer and without any inhibition she pushes her body up against yours, slides her tongue into your mouth... caressing *certain* parts of your anatomy while doing so.)~
@4155 = ~... Do you? (She giggles, mischief in her eyes. It might be only your imagination, but you get the feeling that she is using her sexuality to make you forget about the bracelet. Not that you have any complaints about that, anyway.)~
@4156 = ~Yeah I guessed that...! (Imoen looks at her brand new bracelet again) It's great huh? Well, let's move on, we've lost too much time already!~
@4157 = ~HAH!! now ya'd like that wouldntcha?? Well, tell you what, not a CHANCE in HELL! It's *mine*, now get your greedy eyes off my bracelet and leave *us* alone...~
@4158 = ~Pfft... giving it to <PRO_HIMHER>... didya hear that, dear bracelet...? Ha! Nuts I tell ya...~
@4159 = ~Hmm, should find a name for you, dontcha think, bracelet? Yes, of course you do...~
@4160 = ~(You look at her with an eyebrow raised. Imoen seems too enthusiastic about this, even for her... you can't help but wonder about the consequences of this.)~
@4161 = ~What happened, <CHARNAME>? Why did you run like that?~
@4162 = ~Heheheheh... nothing Keldorn... let's say that... running is completely free...! (Imoen has another burst of laughs.)~
@4163 = ~I really hope that doesn't mean what I think it does, child...~
@4164 = ~Heheheheh... nothing Mazzy, nothing... let's say that... running is completely free...! (Imoen has another burst of laughs.)~
@4165 = ~I really hope that doesn't mean what I think it does, Imoen...~
@4166 = ~Heheheheh... nothing really, Jaheira... let's say that... running is completely free...! (Imoen has another burst of laughs.)~
@4167 = ~W-what happened, Imoen? Why did you run like that?~
@4168 = ~Heheheheh... Aerie, let's say that... running is completely free...! (Imoen has another burst of laughs.)~
@4169 = ~Oh... does that mean that... (She sees the bracelet on Imoen's wrist) oh, Imoen...! That's just not right!~
@4170 = ~Oh don't be that... that uptight, Aerie! (Imoen turns to you.)~
@4171 = ~Heheheheh... nothing Anomen, nothing... let's say that... running is completely free...! (Imoen has another burst of laughs.)~
@4172 = ~(Edwin pants) What in the hells happened?~
@4173 = ~Heheheheh... Edwin, let's say that... running is completely free...! (Imoen has another burst of laughs.)~
@4174 = ~(Noticing the 'new' bracelet on Imoen's wrist, Edwin smiles wickedly) I see... I can sense its power from here... it will be interesting to study it...~
@4175 = ~Hah! Not a chance, Edwin! Touch it and you'll lose *all* of your fingers... (She turns to you.)~
@4176 = ~What happened!?~
@4177 = ~Heheheheh... Korgan, let's say that... running is completely free...! (Imoen has another burst of laughs.)~
@4178 = ~(Noticing the 'new' bracelet on Imoen's wrist, Korgan can't help but smile) Hah! That's me Imoen! Ye ain't that bad, lass.~
@4179 = ~Gee Korgan, thanks! (She turns to you.)~
@4180 = ~<CHARNAME>...! I thought ya'd never come back, time seems to stand still when you're not with me...~
@4181 = ~Well or maybe this place is just *too* boring...! C'mon, tell me you missed me...~
@4182 = ~It was pure torture not being close to you... I need you with me.~
@4183 = ~I've missed you but... I cannot take you with me now. Stay here, I'll come back, I promise.~
@4184 = ~I have no need of you at present.~
@4185 = ~Aawwwn... I'm *so* bored...!~
@4186 = ~Great to hear that!~
@4187 = ~You... you serious? If you leave me here ya won't be able to enjoy any of my incredible charms, heh...~
@4188 = ~I'm very sorry Imoen... I don't want you to go, but it's for the best of the group... I still feel the same about you. I'll come back, I promise.~
@4189 = ~Rot here, I don't need you anymore.~
@4190 = ~No, Imoen, you misunderstood... stay with me, please.~
@4191 = ~Oh, alright...! If that's what you want... I'll try and find my way to the Copper Coronet, but we'd be better off together...~
@4192 = ~... what?? (Imoen frowns at you. Obviously she expected much more from you, and can't understand why she's being treated like this.)~
@4193 = ~(This outrages her... *a lot*)~
@4194 = ~There are two incredibly appropriate words that spring to mind, <CHARNAME>; can you guess what they are...?~
@4195 = ~(Imoen flashes you an obscene gesture) Fuck you!!~
@4196 = ~If you think I'm going to wait here for you, you *really* don't know me at all! Hope for your own good we don't meet again, bastard.~
@4197 = ~I... <GABBER>... is... is that you...? I... I can't see... everything is... getting... dark...~
@4198 = ~H-- help... me...~
@4199 = ~Just *shut up* and HEAL ME!!~
@4200 = ~I'm NOT in a talkative mood right now, <GABBER>! Get me some healing, it hurts quite a bit, you know that!?~
@4201 = ~D-- do "things"!? Have you lost your mind or what!? I can barely move my arm!!~
@4202 = ~Get me some healing... NOW!!~
@4203 = ~Whoa, must be one of "those days"...~
@4204 = ~Now we *agree* on something...~
@4205 = ~Well what if I cripple both your legs, to see how bad it looks!? Maybe if I set you on fire you'll see things a bit differently!~
@4206 = ~You get rather violent when you are hurt...~
@4207 = ~(She just glares at you with flames already burning in her eyes.)~
@4208 = ~Ooh, excuse me <PRO_LADYLORD> "I-never-get-hurt-by-projectiles"!!~
@4209 = ~Do something, find a cleric, a potion, whatever, just heal me!~
@4210 = ~Whoa, easy there, have patience... (To yourself) it must be one of "those days"...~
@4211 = ~You know, I'm not in a very talkative mood, it really HURTS. And if you were a little more considerate you'd notice that, <GABBER>!~
@4212 = ~It won't kill you to keep it to yourself a little longer until I can get some healing, mind you...~
@4213 = ~"Do things"...? do you really think that I'm in the mood for DOING "THINGS" right now!?~
@4214 = ~Get me some healing, dammit...! you can be SO selfish at times...~
@4215 = ~Ah... yes, ma'am...~
@4216 = ~Well, that'd be something I'd be grateful for...~
@4217 = ~Ooh, alright, I'll try keep up with your pace, but don't be surprised when I fall *dead* to the ground!~
@4218 = ~Gee you like to exaggerate, don't you...?~
@4219 = ~(She just glares at you.)~
@4220 = ~(Imoen's fiery glare could even melt the thick ice that surrounds your heart.)~
@4221 = ~You *shouldn't* have said that...~
@4222 = ~If I ever recover from my wounds, you had better cast protection spells on yourself before you close your eyes to sleep at night, <GABBER>...~
@4223 = ~I won't warn you twice... (Imoen's look *is* scary. You are lucky she is only joking... or so you would like to think...)~
@4224 = ~Oh, all right, all right, if you insist...~
@4225 = ~(She shrugs) Whatever.~
@4226 = ~(Imoen gives a short glance to the rest of the party members, and looks at you nervously.)~
@4227 = ~I... uh... I don't think we have anything to... talk about, <CHARNAME>...~
@4228 = ~(Her voice drops to a whisper that only you can hear) not with everyone hearing us, please...~
@4229 = ~(Imoen looks roughly at you, even menacingly. You notice however how nervous and uncomfortable she is.)~
@4230 = ~Talk about what? There's nothing to talk about... The only thing I'm only concerned about right now is my soul, <CHARNAME>. Let's get to Bodhi, shall we?~
@4231 = ~(She is clearly puzzled by your question.)~
@4232 = ~I thought I already told ya I had nothing like that... I didn't dream of me telling ya about the taint or any other Bhaal stuff...~
@4233 = ~No, Imoen, I'm talking about other rather... um, *different* dreams. They had nothing to do with the taint...~
@4234 = ~Oh, that's true. Sorry then.~
@4235 = ~Me too!~
@4236 = ~(Imoen purses her lips.)~
@4237 = ~Well I don't like your *face* either, but you don't hear me complaining about that...!~
@4238 = ~(Imoen nervously glances at you; you have seen this troubled look in her eyes before, most often when she is looking at you.)~ [MRImRom5]
@4239 = ~Y-- yeah? and, uh, what were they about?~
@4240 = ~Well, umm... they always started in Candlekeep, and you showed me things from our childhood... and then you asked... uhm, "questions"...~
@4241 = ~Well, you showed me some things that happened when we were younger, you asked some questions and then we kissed...~
@4242 = ~(Dramatize a little) You showed me some past events and then we had sex... and it really turned me on!~
@4243 = ~(Dramatize a lot) Actually, we screwed like rabbits, babe!!!~
@4244 = ~Well, I... I don't really think we have time to talk about it now...~
@4245 = ~WHAT!?~ [MRImRom5]
@4246 = ~C'mon I was just joking! What really happened was that you showed me some things that happened when we were younger... and then you asked... uhm, "questions"...~
@4247 = ~C'mon I was just joking! What really happened was that you showed me some things that happened in our past, you asked some questions and then we kissed...~
@4248 = ~Yeah, c'mon I really want it babe, let's make some lovin' together!!~
@4249 = ~(She seems relieved and disappointed at the same time) As-- as you wish...~
@4250 = ~"Questions"... and... nothing more?~
/* Just why does she want to know? String 5297-5320 */ 
@4251 = ~Nothing more.~
@4252 = ~Well... and at the end of it we... *ahem* kissed.~
@4253 = ~We... kissed? And then it was over and nothing more happened, right?~
@4254 = ~Well, then we had a session of hardcore sex that I enjoyed very much.~
@4255 = ~Agh, that *wasn't* funny, <CHARNAME>!~
@4256 = ~So, "questions" and nothing more?~
@4257 = ~That wasn't *the least bit* funny, <CHARNAME>...!~
@4258 = ~So, a kiss and nothing more?~
@4259 = ~(Imoen's face turns bright red in matter of seconds, and then she gives you a piece of her mind) I hope that's a joke!!! GET OUTTA MY SIGHT, YOU PERVERT!! I'll do my best to forget this conversation ever took place!!!~
@4260 = ~And don't you ever DARE to *look* at me again!!~
@4261 = ~Oh... (she seems somewhat disappointed, but also quite relieved.)~
@4262 = ~And... umm, what were those events about then, hmm?~
@4263 = ~They were things involving you and me. I saw... well, *you* showed *me* some things we did together when we were younger.~
@4264 = ~You showed me things that happened when we were younger. You seemed to be trying to convince me that my feelings for you went beyond care or mere friendship... if you know what I mean...~
@4265 = ~On second thought, I don't think we have time to discuss this right now...~
@4266 = ~Ah, and what things did "I" tell ya 'bout?~
@4267 = ~(She becomes unsettled again when you tell her this) Huh!? And what were these things??~
@4268 = ~How many of these dreams didya have?~
@4269 = ~Actually, there were three dreams. In the first one... (Tell her only about what you saw in the three dreams, leaving out the "suggestive" parts.)~
@4270 = ~Well, there were three dreams; in the first one... (Tell her about what you saw and about what she asked and did in all the dreams, leaving no detail untold.)~
@4271 = ~There were at least ten dreams: they'd start in Candlekeep but end up someplace more private where I'd watch while you slowly peeled your clothes off and danced for me (You move your hips to demonstrate) I was incredibly turned on by this, when will you do that for me for real? ~
@4272 = ~Meh, never mind. Can't we talk about this later?~
@4273 = ~(Imoen listens to you carefully, without uttering a word.)~
@4274 = ~Pfeh...!~
@4275 = ~(Imoen listens to you carefully, without uttering a word. You notice she feels quite awkward and distressed when you reach the final parts of your dreams.)~
@4276 = ~(As you embellish upon your flagrant, stupid lie, a flame grows in Imoen's eyes) When Baator freezes over, you *asshole*! Makin' me waste my time like that, you're pathetic!!~
/* Stupid responses @5329-5334 */
@4277 = ~And don't you ever DARE to look at me again, pervert!!~
@4278 = ~Oops... wrong answer it seems... (slap your forehead.)~
@4279 = ~Well, I *do* remember the storm, and that day when we went to the lake...~
@4280 = ~The other two, I don't remember at all. Maybe they never happened, but maybe I can't remember them 'cause we were too young in the first one, and I was *so* shocked in the third one that I wanted to forget it...~
@4281 = ~That last one has some logic anyway... y'know, with this "tainted children" stuff... I could have been dreaming of that... I don't know (she shrugs.)~
@4282 = ~And about me tryin' to convince ya that we were, eh... "more than friends"... (she grows restless again) I-- I'd just say it was just part of your crazy dreams, heh...~
@4283 = ~Oh no, NO WAY, not after all you've already said...~
@4284 = ~*Tell me*, how many of them?~
@4285 = ~There were at least ten dreams: they'd start in Candlekeep but end up someplace more private where I'd watch while you slowly peeled your clothes off and danced for me, throwing me flying kisses (You move your hips to demonstrate) I was incredibly turned on by that, when will you do that for me for real? ~
@4286 = ~Anything else you wanted to tell me or ask me or whatever...?~
@4287 = ~Actually, I've... omitted some parts... it was just too embarrassing but, oh well... (tell what really happened in the dreams, kisses and suggestive parts included.)~
@4288 = ~So you didn't have these same dreams, or at least something close to them, or even a *feeling* of communicating with me?~
@4289 = ~Nope... I feel quite relieved telling you all of it anyway... let's continue.~
@4290 = ~Those, uh, "things" that "I" said and... did... (she smiles nervously but tries to appear self-confident.)~
@4291 = ~As I've told you I think dreams are just some senseless mental idiocy when sleeping, that's all...~
@4292 = ~I mean... c'mon, dreams don't mean a thing, right? There are some jerks that believe in all that crap, but I ain't one of them, and I know you aren't either... right?~
@4293 = ~The only one that *could* make any sense is the last one, where I asked you to help me... you know, because of all the torture I had to... suffer through...~
@4294 = ~Anyway, I guess that if you really want to know if they really happened, the only thing you can do is keep trying to remember by yourself... (She shrugs) I don't have a clue.~
@4295 = ~Well I... ummm... err...~
@4296 = ~(Imoen remains silent and appears to be struggling against her own thoughts.)~
@4297 = ~Imoen?~
@4298 = ~Bah, never mind... I feel quite relieved now that I've told you all of it... thanks for listening. Let's go on, eh?~
@4299 = ~(Imoen glances at you) ... okay...~
@4300 = ~(she stares at the ground)... I... I did dream of you... but not in the same way...~
/* String split: 5335 */ 
@4301 = ~... You always came in the worst times, when I was back in the cold cell, beaten and wounded...~
@4302 = ~and... eased my pain... and supported me... and made it feel more bearable...~
@4303 = ~Is that so...? In which way?~
@4304 = ~That's good to hear, Imoen... it's about time we move on, however.~
@4305 = ~Like I cared; I just wanted to get your dreams out of my mind, so shut up and keep walking.~
@4306 = ~(Imoen is silent again; you notice that her lower lip is trembling slightly, her breath quickened.)~
@4307 = ~I... (she looks up, and suddenly seems aware of her surroundings again) it was nothing, really! (She makes an effort to smile) but hey, we've been talking for *hours*!~
@4308 = ~Let's move on, eh?~
@4309 = ~(Imoen just glares at you with the utmost resentment.)~
@4310 = ~I see.~
@4311 = ~(It's obvious she expected to have this conversation sooner or later. She has a sad look in her eyes as her voice whispers her reply.)~ [MRImRom1]
/* new strings: 5388-whoknows */
@4312 = ~(You sigh) I guess you're right after all. We made a horrible mistake, let's just try to... remain friends, alright?~
@4313 = ~That's not true and you know it. If we don't talk about what happened... about what *is* happening between us, I think I'll explode... I think we both will.~
@4314 = ~Agh, you know what? Fuck you, Imoen!~
@4315 = ~(Imoen slowly nods once. Despite being sad, she seems to have been relieved of a heavy burden.)~
@4316 = ~That's the way it must be. Our... "kind"... simply can't be together in that way.~
@4317 = ~(Imoen looks at you sadly. She knew you would say something like that; she shakes her head slowly, with stern resignation.)~
@4318 = ~Those words... may have meant something once, but now they bring nothing but emptiness... it doesn't matter, <CHARNAME>. For us, that doesn't really matter.~
@4319 = ~I was... your childhood friend, "the little sister you never had". Now I really am your sister... let it stay like that.~
@4320 = ~But Imoen, you--~
@4321 = ~You know, you're such a bit--~
@4322 = ~Hmm, maybe you ar--~
@4323 = ~(She interrupts you with all the determination she can muster) No, <CHARNAME> just let it go. Please... respect my decision... it's the most difficult one I've ever made...~
@4324 = ~(Of all the ways she had thought you may reply, this really was the furthest from her mind.)~
@4325 = ~W-- What...??~
@4326 = ~You heard me well enough! I'm tired of people playing with my feelings, with my *heart*! What about ME, Imoen!? Your attitude is hurting me much more than any wound I've ever suffered...~
@4327 = ~Go drown yourself in a lake you bitch, I'm tired of this, I'm tired of YOU and your whining! As someone said long ago, "Go-pester-someone-else"!!~
@4328 = ~(She frowns, and her sad look disappears as her temper begins to flare. And she's got a BIG, RED one) It was YOU who wanted to talk, ASSHOLE!~
@4329 = ~You're just too STUPID to understand those around you, aren't you? You can't see further than the tip of your weapon, everything else means nothing but "things to kill" and "things that bleed".~
@4330 = ~I pity you, I pity those that follow your dumbness. I can't believe you've made it so far, you're so STUPID rocks could beat you in a wisdom contest!~
@4331 = ~Ugh, now I *know* I made the right decision... I really don't know what I could've been thinking that morning in the woods.~
@4332 = ~Don't expect me to stay with you anymore. Every time I look at you I remember what we *did*, and that makes my stomach churn.~
@4333 = ~(She looks puzzled for a moment. Your words have caught her off guard) I... ah... I didn't...~
@4334 = ~Of course, of course "you didn't". No one ever does, Imoen. And for once, I was beginning to think that someone did, that someone really cared... just to find that it all was... dust. Dust in my hands, slipping through my fingers.~
@4335 = ~(Imoen reacts with concern, her emotions truly touched by what you said) <CHARNAME>, <CHARNAME>, it's not like that... I... I *did* care, I still do...! It's only that--~
@4336 = ~Bah, go drown yourself in a lake you worthless bitch, I'm tired of this, I'm tired of YOU and your whining! As someone said long ago, "Go-pester-someone-else"!!~
@4337 = ~That WHAT...? Why are you doing this to me, Imoen? Why are you doing this to you?~
@4338 = ~(Imoen remains silent for a moment, looking at the ground to avoid your gaze.)~
@4339 = ~(She closes her eyes. Gathering her determination, she frowns and looks at you again to speak almost shouting.)~
@4340 = ~There's nothing happening between us, <CHARNAME>! Nothing can happen, that simple! We are-- you...~
@4341 = ~(After this little outburst her voice breaks. Then she talks as if she's about to cry, making a silent plea with her eyes.)~
@4342 = ~I can't let it happen...~
@4343 = ~Why? Why are you doing this to me, Imoen? Why are you doing this to *you*?~
@4344 = ~But I love you, Imoen.~
@4345 = ~Why!? (Imoen can't hold back anymore; her anguish finally spills out) Because you're my *<PRO_BROTHERSISTER>*, <CHARNAME>! We both are *Bhaalspawn* dammit! Y'know what we did!? We committed *incest*! We are two dirty incestuous bastards!~
@4346 = ~(Speak seriously) Oh no, I never thought of it that way! Get away from me! We must find a way atone for this sin!~
@4347 = ~(Slap yourself on the forehead sarcastically) Holy shit that's true! Get away from me, we are impure, let's ask the gods for mercy!~
@4348 = ~... and?~
@4349 = ~We may be BhaalSpawn, but that doesn't mean we are "regular" siblings, Imoen. Our mothers weren't the same, neither were our families. Only our father is common to both of us; and he wasn't really a "father", but a deity...~
@4350 = ~Imoen, that's simply not true. We are Bhaalspawn, yes; however, you don't seem to know the way Bhaal planted his seeds.~
@4351 = ~You see? Let's stay as friends, let's stay as brother and sister, <CHARNAME>. We've been happy with that until now, why change it? Let's just forget about what happened as if it was a... bad dream...~
@4352 = ~(Imoen seems to get lost in her memories. After a while, and despite her efforts, a tear rolls down her cheek.)~
@4353 = ~Are you telling me that you... don't care...? You don't care at all about that...?~
@4354 = ~Haven't you stopped to ponder why you think it's wrong, Imoen? Well, I know why I feel it's right: because I need you, Imoen, I need you so much... That's reason enough for me to be right, and you won't find a reason as strong as that one for this to be wrong.~
@4355 = ~That's it.~
@4356 = ~(Imoen looks at you in silence, considering your words. Finally, she speaks.)~
@4357 = ~(Imoen's frown deepens) Well I DO care about that! It's WRONG and it's NASTY, <CHARNAME>! I'm not some slut that has no dignity or morals...~
@4358 = ~I guess we just don't see this the same way, <CHARNAME>. It's obvious to me that what we did was a great mistake in our lives.~
@4359 = ~We've been happy with the relationship we've had all these years... why go further and risk ruining it?~
@4360 = ~Let's stay as friends, let's stay as brother and sister, <CHARNAME>. Let's just forget about what happened as if it was a... bad dream...~
@4361 = ~(Imoen seems to get lost in memories. After a while, and despite her efforts, a tear rolls down her cheek.)~
@4362 = ~(She looks at you quizzically. She didn't expect you'd know about such things, and beckons you silently to go on.)~
@4363 = ~Basically, Bhaal possessed a male vessel so as to impregnate a female; it didn't matter what race either of them were. So the male vessel was actually the true father of the child that was 'created' which means that *technically*, we were born from different fathers.~
@4364 = ~Basically, Bhaal created a "Morotron" from the essence of bread crumbs the gully dwarves that feast under his throne drop. "Morotron" is the arcane name for "Son of Gully Gods", or more popularly known as "Child of Bhaal"; It is well known by the wise famous Were-Bunny from the city of Porryplopy that Morotrons had no certain mother, father, or EVEN uncles (just go figure!); they were considered "Shinpa'rres", which comes to mean more or less "parentless" in Common Tongue. So, technically, you and me being Morotrons, it's impossible that we are family.~
@4365 = ~Ummm... actually, neither do I but... well, what I'm saying is that I don't think that bears much importance!~
@4366 = ~(Imoen's eyes have been opening wider and wider while you tell her all of this. She almost thinks that you are mocking her, but your very serious attitude makes her doubt this... if only slightly.)~
@4367 = ~... What was that?? Are you really serious, have you lost your mind?? That sounds like a whole load of elephant turds!~
@4368 = ~I didn't skip as many lessons as you did back in Candlekeep, Imoen. I actually enjoyed exploring the books in the library. I remember reading it there.~
@4369 = ~Well I actually invented it all. I sounded quite convincing, didn't I? (Beam a smile at her.)~
@4370 = ~That doesn't matter, Imoen. Our relationship is all that matters right now.~
@4371 = ~(Imoen skeptically raises an eyebrow) ... how's it you know all that...?~
@4372 = ~Well I actually invented it all. I sounded quite convincing, didn't I? (Beam a smile at her.)~
@4373 = ~Blorb!~
@4374 = ~Fret pet!~
@4375 = ~You know, Imoen... we could go on like this for days...~
@4376 = ~Aren't you tired yet...?~
@4377 = ~I need some water...~
@4378 = ~Where is a silence spell when you need it...?~
@4379 = ~Sometimes I wonder if we really get to choose what we say...~
@4380 = ~Hmm, aren't we repeating the same thing over and over?~
@4381 = ~ZZzzzzZZzzzzZZzz... uh, I mean... FLAK!~
@4382 = ~OPTION THREE, THREE I TELL YOU!!~
@4383 = ~Alright, I think my head is going to explode...~
@4384 = ~I'm warning you... don't keep doing that...~
@4385 = ~Agh, I'll tell Mirrabbo to remove this stupid thing in the next patch...~
@4386 = ~Now, you are proud of yourself, aren't you? This is the last one, don't keep wasting your time... I'll tell you something: if you choose option three *RIGHT NOW*, you'll get a bonus to all of your stats...~
@4387 = ~So you think you are smart, huh? Well, you aren't: this is absolutely pointless.~
@4388 = ~I'm serious... you're just wasting your time...~
@4389 = ~Very well, if you don't believe me, then let's restart this thing all over!~
@4390 = ~You know Imoen... we could go on like this for days...~
@4391 = ~Argh, it's impossible to fool you!! YOU'VE EARNED IT, HERE'S YOUR DAMN REWARD!!~
@4392 = ~Yeah, well, of course, of course you read that in Candlekeep. You didn't make it up just now, how could I even consider that? (She rolls her eyes.)~
@4393 = ~I'm not stupid, <CHARNAME>! It's obvious you aren't taking this seriously at all. That's why I love you as a friend, <CHARNAME>... as a <PRO_BROTHERSISTER>... but not as... y'know...~
@4394 = ~Let's try to forget about what happened between us and just go back to being like we always were. I know, and you will too sooner or later, it's the best thing to do.~
@4395 = ~And by the way, *you* skipped at least as many lessons as me!~
@4396 = ~Actually, NO! that was the craziest thing I've ever heard from you! And you've said *many* crazy things, I assure you... (she can't help but smile.)~
@4397 = ~You see? That's why I love you as a friend, <CHARNAME>... as a <PRO_BROTHERSISTER>... but not as... y'know...~
@4398 = ~Let's just forget about what happened and go back to acting like we always did. I think, and you will too sooner or later, it's the best thing to do.~
@4399 = ~You see? That's why I love you as a friend, <CHARNAME>... as a <PRO_BROTHERSISTER>... but not as... y'know...~
@4400 = ~(Imoen looks distressed by your last sentence. You are making this much more difficult for her than she ever thought possible.)~
@4401 = ~(She bites her lower lip with a worried expression on her face. She feels she is losing the inner battle she has been fighting against her sentiments...)~
@4402 = ~(Imoen doesn't find that funny) You're not taking this seriously, <CHARNAME>. If yer not really worried about losing my love...~
@4403 = ~Ah, so you admit you love me, huh?~
/* Softer response: 5338 */
@4404 = ~You're right, it doesn't worry me at all. I prefer to pay a five-gold-piece whore for that kind of affection.~
@4405 = ~N-- no I was just--~
@4406 = ~(You change your expression completely, talking absolutely seriously now. The fear of losing her clenches your heart) Imoen, please listen to me... you have grown to become the first of my worries, my thoughts, my joys. You are my life, what I feel for you is beyond words. Losing you would be... more devastating than it was losing my soul, for *you* are the spirit that endows me with all I have ever desired...~
/* more responses (1-reply states are unacceptable) 5339-5341 */
@4407 = ~(Imoen narrows her eyes; her sadness and disappointment turning into absolute despising.)~
@4408 = ~Well that says it all, <CHARNAME>. (With these words, she turns around and walks away from you.)~
@4409 = ~(Despite her anger you can see that you have shattered her heart to smithereens. At least she has realized you're too volatile for her.)~
@4410 = ~Why!? (Imoen can't hold back anymore; her anguish finally spills out) Because we are *<PRO_BROTHERSISTER>s*, <CHARNAME>! We both are *Bhaalspawn* dammit! Y'know what we did!? We committed *Incest*! We are two dirty incestuous whores!~

@4427 = ~(You change your expression completely, talking absolutely serious now) Look Imoen: you've grown to represent the first of my worries, of my thoughts, of my joys. Losing you would be... worst than losing my soul, for *you* are the soul that lets me have all I've ever desired...~
@4428 = ~(Imoen narrows her eyes; her sadness and disappointment turning into absolute despising.)~
@4429 = ~And... it's not just that but... y'know, we were raised like siblings. I've always considered you a close friend, someone I'd never part with...~

@4431 = ~(You see Imoen can't find words to go on.)~
@4432 = ~Imoen... I'd have never expected we would come to this point... but since I had those dreams, every day I see you more like a woman, and less like my little sister...~
@4433 = ~(You wait patiently to let her finish expressing her feelings when she is able to.)~
@4434 = ~All I know is that I love you, Imoen. Everything else means nothing.~
@4435 = ~All I know is that this is taking much more time than I thought it would, so I say we just forget about everything and just be friends.~
@4436 = ~(Imoen looks a little confused, but finally nods in agreement) It's what I was trying to say, <CHARNAME>...~
@4437 = ~Let's stay like we've always been, alright?~
@4438 = ~(Imoen nervously glances at you, expecting you to say something. When she understands you are waiting for her to finish, she says the first thing that comes to her mind) I, uh... I don't know why that changed in the first place, <CHARNAME>... but the fact of the matter is that we've come to this...~
@4439 = ~And when we rescued you it became harder and harder to ignore the warmth your words brought to my heart... the happiness your presence granted me... and not only because you were my friend but... because I felt there was something *more*...~

@4441 = ~(Imoen raises her eyes from the ground to meet yours. You watch almost mesmerized as the light reflects in her tearful eyes, until she looks away again.)~
@4442 = ~<CHARNAME> I... I felt just the same way... you eased my worries... I felt bad memories just go away when I was with you...~
@4443 = ~Then why torture us both, Imoen? So what if we are remote siblings, what if we both are "Bhaalspawn"?  It doesn't matter. We are not hurting anyone by loving each other.~
@4444 = ~I think we have gone too far with this, Imoen. Thinking about it, I guess you were right from the beginning. Let's forget about everything and just be friends.~
@4445 = ~(Somehow you have managed to hurt her feelings by saying that) <CHARNAME>, I think we went too far...~

@4452 = ~<CHARNAME>... I... I don't...~
@4453 = ~(Approach Imoen; embrace her, kiss her... love her.)~
@4454 = ~Umm... well thinking on it, because we *are* bhaalspawn... after all, you are right. It just wouldn't work.~
@4455 = ~(Your gentle embrace is rewarded by the softness of her skin, the warmth and yearning of her body. You start to kiss her like you did in her dreams, first her forehead, then her eyelids, her cheeks and nose...)~ [MRImRom6]
@4456 = ~(You reach her lips, and your kiss isn't rejected at all. Imoen can no longer deny her feelings for you and gives in to her passion. She embraces you tightly, desperately, you almost can't breathe... but still it's the sweetest feeling you have ever experienced.)~

@4469 = ~(Happiness.)~
@4470 = ~(She smiles at you, not cheerfully or lovingly but... knowingly.)~
@4471 = ~(She softly pushes you away) We are one, <CHARNAME>. Let's get our soul back from Irenicus.~
@4472 = ~(After this odd statement, she turns around and leaves your side.)~
@4473 = ~(You can do nothing but agree with her.)~
@4474 = ~(Imoen raises an eyebrow at you) What're you on about?~ [MRImNig1]
@4475 = ~You told me that you came to Candlekeep when you were ten, but that you remembered absolutely nothing of your life before being there. Actually, we've never talked about that, and I wondered if it was true.~
@4476 = ~(She frowns, looking at you as if you were talking nonsense.)~
@4477 = ~<CHARNAME>, whatcha mean? Did those dreams of yours damage your mind or something? I thought you knew I spent all my childhood in Candlekeep, I was born there...!~
@4478 = ~Um... what?~
@4479 = ~That's not true, and you know it.~
@4480 = ~Uh, if you say so... I don't remember much myself, to tell the truth...~
@4481 = ~Meh, whatever. I was just bored, I didn't really care about what you said...~
@4482 = ~Alright, sorry to disturb you.~

@4486 = ~Not surprising I'd say. Sometimes yer so obsessed with all that's goin' on that I'm sure ya can't even remember your name...!~
@4487 = ~Huh?? I think I'd remember my *own* past at least, <CHARNAME>...!~
@4488 = ~"what"...? what does that mean, "what"? you heard me perfectly!~
@4489 = ~I spent all my life in Candlekeep, just like you! How's it you can't remember that!?~
@4490 = ~Imoen... are you alright? Did you hit your head or something...?~
@4491 = ~Imoen, it's you who don't remember it all... you came to Candlekeep when you were ten. Of that, I am completely sure.~
@4492 = ~Oh, oh, yeah...! Sorry, I was confused...~
@4493 = ~Oh, very well, you're right, you were born there... anything so long as you stop yelling at me like that...!~

@4499 = ~Are you mad or what?~
@4500 = ~Well, now that you put it that way, I don't know...~
@4501 = ~Yeah, yeah, alright, you win. Just stop crying like a baby!~
@4502 = ~I'm sorry Imoen, I think you're right, I was mistaken.~
@4503 = ~(Her almost aggressive look softens gradually, until she sighs.)~
@4504 = ~(She glares at you, narrowing her eyes to thin slits... almost menacingly.)~
@4505 = ~Are you questioning my *own* memories, <CHARNAME>?~
@4506 = ~I'm not questioning anything. I'm just telling the truth, and the truth is that you are tremendously wrong.~
@4507 = ~Well, prove you were born in Candlekeep then.~
@4508 = ~Actually, I just wanted to get you mad, heheh... guess I did it, huh?~
@4509 = ~Uh... oh... errm... no, of course not! You're right, I was mistaken, I'm sorry.~
@4510 = ~No, Imoen, I'm not; just shut up already, you were right.~
@4511 = ~(She looks at you puzzled for a while, then snorts loudly.)~
@4512 = ~Hmpf! You moron...! (She smiles a little) You *almost* made me yell at you!~
@4513 = ~Oh yeah?? and why in *hell* is that, hmm?~
@4514 = ~No, Imoen, I wasn't; just shut up already, you were right.~
@4515 = ~Prove... that I...?? And how am I supposed to do that, O almighty <CHARNAME>??~
@4516 = ~Just tell me any memory you have from *before* you were ten...~
@4517 = ~There's no way of doing so, because it's impossible.~
@4518 = ~Oh c'mon Imoen, I just wanted to get you mad, heheh... guess I did it, huh? (Wink at her.)~
@4519 = ~You don't have to, since I now realize that you're right after all... I was mistaken, I'm sorry.~
@4520 = ~Bah, it doesn't matter! Just shut up already, you were right.~
@4521 = ~(Imoen remains speechless for a while, swimming through her memories to find something related to what you asked.)~
@4522 = ~I... ummmm...~
@4523 = ~You see? ... I'm waiting, take your time...~
@4524 = ~You don't remember anything, now do you...?~
@4525 = ~The first book you read... the two of us playing together... any familiar faces... no memories of anything until you were ten.~
@4526 = ~Bah, forget it. I was only teasing you. You were right all this time.~
@4527 = ~(She looks at you a little puzzled, then huffs.)~
@4528 = ~(She looks at you again, confused. She's beginning to have doubts... nothing comes to her mind.)~
@4529 = ~Imoen... don't be afraid, I'll help you solve this... 'problem' we have just discovered...~
@4530 = ~(Make up something to see if she falls in the trap) So Imoen... you don't even remember when I 'accidentally' ate some toadstool you *assured me* was perfectly edible...? I was sick for at least two weeks, it almost killed me! We were only 6 when that...~
@4531 = ~(Make up a story and see if she takes the bait) So Imoen... you don't even remember when I "accidentally" ate some toadstool you *assured me* was perfectly edible...? I was sick for at least two weeks, it almost killed me! We were only 6 when that...~
@4532 = ~Haha, don't tell me you have doubts already...! It was all a joke, you were right from the beginning!~
@4533 = ~No, no, I'm sure I'll find something, it's just that I'm a little tired right now...!~
@4534 = ~Give up, Imoen... there's no memory you can find.~
@4535 = ~(Make up something to see if she falls in the trap) So Imoen... you don't even remember when I 'accidentally' ate some toadstool you *assured me* was perfectly edible...? I was sick for at least two weeks, it almost killed me! We were only 6 when that...~
@4536 = ~(Try to make up something to see if she falls in the trap) So Imoen... you don't even remember when I 'accidentally' ate some toadstool you *assured me* was perfectly edible...? I was sick for at least two weeks, it almost killed me! We were only 6 when that...~
@4537 = ~(She glances at you, obviously doubtful and confused. Not knowing what to do, she takes the risk.)~
@4538 = ~O-- of course, of course I remember that! Heheh, you changed colors so fast...~
@4539 = ~(This is even more troubling than you thought. You don't really know what will happen if you continue to press her about this subject. This belief seems deeply rooted in her mind.)~
@4540 = ~Your insecurity proves to me that you remember absolutely nothing of your past. That you have fallen for such an obvious trap is proof enough for me to see how desperate you are to find an argument in your favor.~
@4541 = ~Hmmm... Imoen, that was a lie. I'm sorry to say none of that happened. I never ate any poisonous mushrooms, I just invented that story now...~
@4542 = ~Yeah, heh, and remember what Gorion said? "Never, *ever* trust Imoen again, <CHARNAME>; that's an order!" hahahah...~
@4543 = ~Don't be STUPID, Imoen! *I* am RIGHT, you ARE WRONG!~
@4544 = ~(She glances at you doubtfully; then decides to take the risk.)~
@4545 = ~Hmm, that didn't happen at all, did it? You were just trying to trick me... (she huffs with a mocking smile.)~
@4546 = ~Besides, you're contradicting yourself... by saying that we didn't meet until I was ten but then saying we were together when we were six!~
@4547 = ~(Dammit. If you had been more convincing, it surely would have worked...)~
@4548 = ~I know my own past, <CHARNAME>, thank you. And to find out you don't know about it, is quite disappointing...~
@4549 = ~I think you've forgotten it all because of everything that has happened to us, or maybe it wasn't important enough for your memory to keep it.~
@4550 = ~Anyways, we should get going, don't you think?~
@4551 = ~(Imoen starts walking again, passing you to lead the way for a while... completely lost in her thoughts as something you said has worried her... badly.)~
@4552 = ~(Imoen laughs lightheartedly. You have swallowed what you *know*, for the good of both of you...)~
@4553 = ~Alright, now that was enough, better if we get moving already, hmm?~
@4554 = ~(Imoen starts walking again, passing by your side to lead the march for a while... completely lost in her thoughts because something you said has worried her... badly.)~
@4555 = ~(Imoen just stares at you blankly.)~
@4556 = ~Um, I, ahh... (She surely is wondering how she could have fallen for such an obvious trap. She frowns and then lashes out at you angrily.)~
@4557 = ~LOOK, <CHARNAME>! *I* know better than *YOU* what has happened in MY life, y'hear!? So let's drop this *stupid* conversation before I throw a fireball at your eyebrows!!~
@4558 = ~(Imoen starts walking again. She is irritated with you and passes you by to lead the march for a while... completely lost in her thoughts since something you said has worried her... badly.)~
@4559 = ~(She frowns and angrily shouts at you.)~
@4560 = ~Hmmm...? You wanted something?~
@4561 = ~You know Jaheira, I've been dreaming of Imoen...~
@4562 = ~Nah, nothing, sorry to disturb you.~
@4563 = ~(She raises an eyebrow at you) ... very well.~
@4564 = ~Is that so? And what were those dreams about?~
@4565 = ~I don't know, some random memories from when we lived in Candlekeep.~
@4566 = ~They begin in Candlekeep; she appears and begins to tell me about things that happened when we were young. The dreams are incredibly real.~
@4567 = ~This... "Dream Imoen" shows me past events, asks me odd questions, and we always end up... uh, kissing each other... passionately...~
@4568 = ~(Exaggerate) Porn dreams, actually.~
@4569 = ~(She looks at you quite surprised) ... what?? Erotic dreams about *her*???~
@4570 = ~(She looks at you somewhat surprised) ... dreams where you're... kissing each other...??~
@4571 = ~Memories... from your youth, right?~
@4572 = ~Things from your youth, right?~
@4573 = ~(She takes a step back unconsciously.)~
@4574 = ~Please calm down, Jaheira, they are only dreams, and involved much more than that... I'm telling you about this because I trust in your understanding and common sense...~
@4575 = ~Yeah, they are incredibly real too. Just thinking about them really turns me on...~
@4576 = ~(Jaheira is scandalized. She would have never expected you to have thoughts like those concerning Imoen.)~
@4577 = ~What are you talking about!!?? It's IMOEN, <CHARNAME>!! You can't be serious, she's almost a sister to you!!~
@4578 = ~(She seems to gather her composure again, calming down and looking at you with more than a little displeasure in her eyes.)~
@4579 = ~I do not understand why you tell me about these perversions, <CHARNAME>. I surely wasn't willing to hear them.~
@4580 = ~Now, if you'll excuse me, I think we have someone to rescue and people to avenge.~
@4581 = ~(She quickly regains her composure.)~
@4582 = ~I apologize, I obviously overreacted, <CHARNAME>.~
@4583 = ~So she tells you many things, I presume?~
@4584 = ~And what kind of events or memories does she show you?~
@4585 = ~Don't know really, it's all fuzzy in my mind. The only thing I remember clearly are her kisses...~
@4586 = ~Things we did together in our youth.~
@4587 = ~Umm... now that I think about it, it's really too private to discuss...~
@4588 = ~All manner of them: in the first one, we mounted a purple Galliphant and flew all over Faerun; in the second, we met some sod named 'Oompalendorn' that transported us to the Omblicorn Plane...~
@4589 = ~(Jaheira purses her lips in a disapproving expression) I thought you "trusted my understanding", <CHARNAME>.~
@4590 = ~I know you are very fond of wasting your own time, but I won't allow you to waste *my* time. We should get moving.~
@4591 = ~(Jaheira raises an eyebrow at that, then snorts smiling.)~
@4592 = ~That sounds like dreams a child would have, <CHARNAME>! I don't know how you can have fanciful dreams like that with all the troubles you have...~
@4593 = ~Why are we wasting so much time talking about this?? I'm sure she asked you questions like "what do Galliphants eat?" or "Do you want some of my candy?"~
@4594 = ~Heh, actually, I was just fantasizing a bit... in fact the dreams were things related to our youth together.~
@4595 = ~It wasn't like that at all, but now that I think about it, I guess it's too private to tell you about them.~
@4596 = ~To tell the  truth I don't really remember them clearly... I just recall the kisses.~
@4597 = ~You said that already... (She motions you to go on.)~
@4598 = ~In the first one, she showed me a scene where we were very young and I saved her from a goblin. The second one was an event that took place some years after that. It was about a day when we went to take a bath in the small lake near Candlekeep.~
@4599 = ~(She nods, waiting for you to finish.)~
@4600 = ~Both dreams were presented as "proof" that she's... more than just a friend for me... if you know what I mean. Then, we kissed...~
@4601 = ~And that's all.~
@4602 = ~Umm... now that I think about it, I guess it's too private to tell you...~
@4603 = ~That is all? That's all that is troubling you?~
@4604 = ~Well, obviously your subconscious self is giving you the moments with Imoen that your conscious being has been deprived of.~
@4605 = ~You miss her, <CHARNAME>, and you're worried about her which makes you dream of the "old times" when she was with us.~
@4606 = ~Don't worry, it's perfectly natural. I myself have had some dreams about... Khalid...~
@4607 = ~(She is silent for a second or two, her eyes momentarily looking nowhere, and seems to be lost in her own thoughts.)~
@4608 = ~(She quickly regains her poise.) I'm sure that when we find to her, those dreams will disappear.~
@4609 = ~So better move on, we still have to rescue her.~
@4610 = ~(Jaheira looks at you with a mixture of thoughtfulness and slight disbelief.)~
@4611 = ~Hmmmmmmmmmm...~
@4612 = ~Well I truly believe that dreams always mean something our subconscious selves are trying to tell us, <CHARNAME>.~
@4613 = ~I would have never expected you to have such "desires" for our Imoen...~
@4614 = ~The real question is, what feeling do you have for her right now? ~
@4615 = ~I... (Fall silent and look away.)~
@4616 = ~I... I don't know, Jaheira... I was sure she was only my friend but... those dreams have confused me to the point that I don't know what to believe...~
@4617 = ~She's my closest friend, and I love her for that, Jaheira. She's almost a sister to me, but she will never be anything more.~
@4618 = ~Well you should know that I've never liked her much. I need her abilities, but personally I find her annoying.~
@4619 = ~I actually hope she's dead by now. A burden off my back. I'm trying to get to that place only to find Irenicus.~
@4620 = ~Those dreams have really made me see that I want to have sex with her.~
@4621 = ~(Jaheira is rather surprised by your cruelty.)~
@4622 = ~How can you say such things, <CHARNAME>?? Imoen has been helping you since all this started, she deserves some consideration and respect.~
@4623 = ~She has mine, at least. Something *you* do not have.~
@4624 = ~Although sometimes I could say the same about her, I mostly disagree with your way of thinking. I think you should appreciate the care and concern she has for you, <CHARNAME>.~
@4625 = ~That's not something that is found so easily... especially in your case.~
@4626 = ~It's good to hear you have a clear idea of your relationship, <CHARNAME>.~
@4627 = ~Then I cannot help you, <CHARNAME>.~
@4628 = ~So... you have accepted it already, haven't you? You think you love her.~
@4629 = ~(Jaheira looks really disappointed for a moment, but so briefly you could have imagined it.)~
@4630 = ~One way or another, you must find your own answer to those dreams.~
@4631 = ~Look inside yourself. That's all the advice I can give you.~
@4632 = ~Hmmm...? Why do you address me?~
@4633 = ~You know Viconia, I've been dreaming of Imoen...~
@4634 = ~(Viconia snorts at you) These kivvin...~
@4635 = ~And why exactly should your feeble dreams with that annoying girl interest me, kivvil?~
@4636 = ~Well I thought that, since you're a sex-obsessed wench, you'd like to know about my erotic dreams.~
@4637 = ~Well I thought that you'd like to know about my erotic dreams.~
@4638 = ~Well I... I just wanted share something with you that has been troubling me, that's all...~
@4639 = ~Hmmm... you're right.~
@4640 = ~... bitch.~
@4641 = ~As always.~
@4642 = ~(Viconia scowls menacingly.)~
@4643 = ~I won't warn you again, dog. Watch that tongue of yours when you address me or soon you will lose it.~
@4644 = ~(Viconia snorts with scorn) Erotic dreams with that *child*? Hah, you are more iniquitous than I thought, <CHARNAME>.~
@4645 = ~That's something I don't dislike at all, dog. But watch that tongue of yours when you address me or soon you will lose it.~
@4646 = ~That's something I don't dislike at all, dog. What kind of wicked things did you do in those so-called "erotic dreams"?~
@4647 = ~And why should you be interested in that, drow harpy? It's none of your business, as you said.~
@4648 = ~Well, we kissed each other passionately.~
@4649 = ~It would take several hours for me to describe EVERYTHING I did to her... if you know what I mean...~
@4650 = ~Actually, as you said, there's no reason for me to tell you that...~
@4651 = ~(She narrows her eyes) Do not play games with me, shu caluss. I have asked you a question.~
@4652 = ~And why should you be interested in that, you drow harpy? It's none of your business, as you said!!~
@4653 = ~Oh, but I'd have to spend several hours talking with you, if I wanted to describe EVERYTHING I did to her... if you know what I mean...~
@4654 = ~... and is that all? Hah, if that's what you consider an "erotic dream", (She approaches you and pushes her body against yours) I guess I'll have to describe one of mine, <CHARNAME>...~
@4655 = ~(She smiles mischievously, and approaches you. Before you can react she has wrapped her body around yours. You can feel her heat and you sense the unspoken invitation.)~
@4656 = ~You could do a demonstration for me, <CHARNAME>...~
@4657 = ~Would you like that...?~
@4658 = ~OF COURSE!!~
@4659 = ~Uh-- no... I know what you'd tell me if I was foolish enough to say 'yes'... you'd say "Lick my boots, dog" or something like that...~
@4660 = ~Actually, drow aren't among my tastes. Not even incredibly beautiful drow such as you...~
@4661 = ~Never, evil creature. I don't know why I'm still talking to you right now.~
@4662 = ~(Viconia stares at you menacingly.)~
@4663 = ~Because I let you do it, petty <PRO_RACE>.~
@4664 = ~Now begone. I grow tired of your boring presence.~
@4665 = ~Your mouth says things your eyes don't, yeunn uln'hyrr. You barely manage to control yourself.~
@4666 = ~A bit more persuasion would leave you at my feet... if I wanted to.~
@4667 = ~But that is not the case.~
@4668 = ~(She expected you to say something like that, and pushes you away.)~
@4669 = ~Hahah, you really think I'd do that with a lowly <PRO_RACE> like you?~
@4670 = ~Lick my boots, puny rat, and maybe I'll consider it.~
@4671 = ~(She is momentarily surprised by your response, but regains her self control almost immediately.)~
@4672 = ~A shame for you, <CHARNAME>... you have lost a great opportunity (she licks your earlobe, then moves away from you.)~
@4673 = ~(Viconia looks at you scornfully) I am not your confidant, <PRO_RACE>.~
@4674 = ~If you think a drow would care for your troubles, then you are far too naive to lead this group.~
@4675 = ~(Despite her words Viconia's expression has changed to one of puzzlement, an expression that is quickly erased when she realizes you are still looking at her...)~
@4676 = ~(Your words seem to have created an impact of some sort on her.)~
@4677 = ~What was it that you wanted to tell me before?~
@4678 = ~huh? Why that change all of sudden?~
@4679 = ~Oh, it was something about me having very weird dreams...~
@4680 = ~It was nothing really, it doesn't matter. Let's go on.~
@4681 = ~I thought it didn't interest you, drow. Leave me be.~
@4682 = ~Oh... (Viconia seems disappointed as her effort to be --sort of-- kind to you is rebuffed.)~
@4683 = ~Whatever, <PRO_RACE>. It didn't interest me that much anyway.~
@4684 = ~(She frowns slightly) I am the one asking questions here, <CHARNAME>.~
@4685 = ~Well that's too late now, bitch. Leave me be.~
@4686 = ~(She motions you to go on.)~
@4687 = ~In them, Imoen appeared and showed me events that happened long ago, when we lived in Candlekeep.~
@4688 = ~In them, Imoen kissed me in quite a... disturbing way, to say the least...~
@4689 = ~In them, you, Imoen and I performed a *fantabulous* threesome. The dreams were terrific, by the way.~
@4690 = ~You know Viconia, I don't really want to talk about it now...~
@4691 = ~(Viconia's eyes widen in surprise at first, then narrow as she smiles mischievously.)~
@4692 = ~I should have let you tell me about them before, <CHARNAME>...~
@4693 = ~(She approaches and pushes her body against yours; you can feel her warmth inviting you as her breath caresses your mouth.)~
@4694 = ~Maybe when we get to that girl I'll convince her to help me make your dreams come true...~
@4695 = ~Hah! I knew you two held some kind of physical attraction for each other... undoubtedly, that is the proof.~
@4696 = ~What!!?? Never! I love her like my closest friend, that's all! They are just dreams!!~
@4697 = ~Hmmm... I don't think so. She's almost a sister to me...~
@4698 = ~... do you really think that...? I... don't know what to think at all...~
@4699 = ~That's what I thought. I find it quite... strange. I had never thought of her in that way...~
@4700 = ~I don't know, the only thing that I know for sure is that you are a harlot.~
@4701 = ~Yes, tell yourself that a thousand times. You may end up believing it, but I seriously doubt it.~
@4702 = ~I sense the desire in your eyes for her even now as you talk to me, <PRO_RACE>. Trying to hide it only shows your weakness.~
@4703 = ~(Hidden behind her words, you sense that she is relieved by what you said.)~
@4704 = ~Such indecision should not blur the mind of one in your situation. Take one path or another, but don't dwell upon it.~
@4705 = ~It's a complete waste of your time *and* mine.~
@4706 = ~(She seems disappointed and disgusted at the same time, hiding both feelings behind a veil of pride.)~
@4707 = ~So you have finally accepted it, I see. I knew you wouldn't stifle your instincts towards her much longer.~
@4708 = ~But that's not what I me-~
@4709 = ~You are too fast to judg-~
@4710 = ~Yeah I wanna scr-~
@4711 = ~Keep your petty words to yourself, there's nothing you can say. It's evident what you feel.~
@4712 = ~Events, like what?~
@4713 = ~Don't know, it's all jumbled inside my head... the only thing I remember is that we kissed rather... passionately.~
@4714 = ~In the first one, she showed me a scene when we were very young and I had saved her from a goblin. The second one was an event that took place some years after that. It was about a day when we went to have a bath in the small lake near Candlekeep.~
@4715 = ~(Make up a simple lie) In both dreams I saved her from fearsome monsters, and then she kissed me with the utmost passion as a reward. It was great.~
@4716 = ~(Make up an outrageous lie) In both dreams we had sex over and over again until we died in each others arms from exhaustion.~
@4717 = ~Thinking about it, I realize it's none of your business.~
@4718 = ~(Viconia glares at you) I don't tolerate those who play games with me, <PRO_RACE>. This is my last warning. Next time you won't be so lucky.~
@4719 = ~Hmm... why would you have such dreams?~
@4720 = ~Well, actually she asked me questions about those events, trying to imply I should consider that she is "more than a friend" to me, if you take my meaning... and then, she kissed me... passionately.~
@4721 = ~(Lie) Well actually in both dreams, after that we had sex once and again until we died from our exertions...~
@4722 = ~Well that's going too far, it's none of your business!~
@4723 = ~Yes? You need something from me, <CHARNAME>?~
@4724 = ~You know Aerie, I've been dreaming of Imoen, this, uh, friend we are going to rescue...~
@4725 = ~Uh, okay then.~
@4726 = ~Oh... umm... alright (She doesn't seem to know how to reply to that.)~
@4727 = ~And, err... w-were they pleasant dreams?~
@4728 = ~Well they were... strange.~
@4729 = ~Oh, yeah, sure!~
@4730 = ~Not at all... they made me feel uncomfortable.~
@4731 = ~Oh, I just wanted you to know that. Let's go on!~
@4732 = ~Oh, and why's that?~
@4733 = ~She told me of events long past, when we both lived together in Candlekeep.~
@4734 = ~She asked me weird questions implying that at certain points of my life I loved her, and then she ardently kissed me.~
@4735 = ~(Try to scare her) I appeared with an axe in my hands; then, I approached Imoen, and between her cries of terror and pain, I cut her in little pieces, drank her blood, and ate her flesh.~
@4736 = ~(Try to embarrass her) Well I was in a field near Candlekeep and I was completely nude. So was Imoen. I pulled her to the ground and then I... (Describe, in great detail, what you did with Imoen.)~
@4737 = ~Umm... better if you forget about it, it's nothing really.~
@4738 = ~(Aerie's eyes open wider and wider as you tell your 'tale', until she can't hold it anymore.)~
@4739 = ~S-stop, stop it! That's so... so inappropriate, why are you telling me all that!?~
@4740 = ~Oh c'mon Aerie, I was only joking! What really happened is that she told me of events long past, when we both lived together in Candlekeep.~
@4741 = ~Oh c'mon Aerie, I was only joking! She only asked me weird questions implying that at certain points of my life I loved her, and then she ardently kissed me.~
@4742 = ~Uhh... I don't know?~
@4743 = ~Well I thought I should initiate you to the arts of sex.~
@4744 = ~Huh? Aren't you a nymphomaniac elf?~
@4745 = ~Argh, y-- you are a sadistic, disgusting <PRO_MANWOMAN>! Why are you telling me about such horrible dreams??~
@4746 = ~Well I thought I should initiate you to the arts of blood and carnage.~
@4747 = ~Huh? Aren't you one of those cruel and bloodthirsty elves?~
@4748 = ~Argh, y-- you are a sadistic, disgusting woman! Why are you telling me about such horrible dreams??~
@4749 = ~Well I thought I should initiate you in the arts of blood and carnage.~
@4750 = ~(You have managed to upset Aerie enough to make her forget about her insecurity and shyness.)~
@4751 = ~No!! That's... that's this drow, Viconia! I'm an Avariel, a flying elf, lover of art and GOOD things!~
@4752 = ~You should pair with her, I'm sure she has dreams much like yours!!~
@4753 = ~(Aerie moves away from you, as your presence is making her uncomfortable.)~
@4754 = ~No!! That's... that's a drow! I'm an Avariel, a flying elf, lover of art and GOOD things!~
@4755 = ~That was very sickening, <CHARNAME>! I hope you don't talk to me about things like that again!~
@4756 = ~Well you thought wrong! Th-That was extremely sickening, <CHARNAME>!!~
@4757 = ~I hope you won't talk to me about things like that again!~
@4758 = ~You don't know?? Y-- you're mad! Do you often tell things like that to your companions for no reason at all??~
@4759 = ~(Obviously Aerie doesn't find it that funny.)~
@4760 = ~Th-that was an awful, scary joke, <CHARNAME>. Don't do it again...~
@4761 = ~... Candlekeep? That's where you lived, a stronghold for wisdom... right?~
@4762 = ~And this Imoen... what manner of events did she show you? (You can't tell if Aerie is truly interested or is just being polite to you.)~
@4763 = ~Well to tell the truth, I don't remember them clearly... the only thing that is clear in my head are the avid kisses she gave me when the dreams were over.~
@4764 = ~(Try to embarrass her) She showed me several scenes where I had sex with her; starting from when we were about fifteen years old... (describe every detail.)~
@4765 = ~(Try to scare her) She showed me several scenes of the slaughters and massacres we committed together within Candlekeep; from cows to cute little rabbits, there was blood everywhere. It was great.~
@4766 = ~... Aerie, if you are not in the mood to talk about these dreams, I don't mind, I understand...~
@4767 = ~Seeing how enthusiastic you are, I might as well tell it to that rock over there. Get lost, wingless.~
@4768 = ~(You can tell from her expression that you have hurt Aerie's feelings badly.)~
@4769 = ~That... that was cruel, <CHARNAME>... I was just trying to... to b-be polite...~
@4770 = ~(She seems on the brink of tears as she looks away from you.)~
@4771 = ~Oh, no, no, please, continue! It's only that... well, I can't be of much help to you since I don't know Imoen yet...~
@4772 = ~Oh, alright... the issue is that I don't remember them clearly... the only thing that is clear in my head are the avid kisses she gave me when the dreams were over.~
@4773 = ~Don't worry... well; in the first one, she showed me a scene when we were very young and I had saved her from a goblin. The second one was an event that took place some years after that. It was about a day when we went to have a bath in the small lake near Candlekeep.~
@4774 = ~No, no, it's not important, seriously. Please, let us go on.~
@4775 = ~B-- but... (She is nearly speechless. She hadn't thought you'd have called such horrid images dreams rather than "nightmares".)~
@4776 = ~You... you are horrible! That's so revolting...! Why are you telling me that??~
@4777 = ~Oh c'mon Aerie, I was only joking! To tell the truth-~
@4778 = ~B-- but... (She is speechless. She hadn't thought you'd have such dreams about someone you considered to be a "close friend".)~
@4779 = ~Huh? Aren't you a nymphomaniac elf?~
@4780 = ~No, I don't want to hear any more of this, I've had enough!~
@4781 = ~I... I hope you won't tell me things like that again, <CHARNAME>.~
@4782 = ~Oh, then you enjoyed those dreams very much, didn't you?~
@4783 = ~Sometimes I dream like that too... I mean, of past times... when I could... fly...~
@4784 = ~(She is lost in thought for a few moments. As tears began to fill her eyes, she comes back to reality.)~
@4785 = ~But anyway, you were telling me of your dreams about your friend Imoen... that's all that happened?~
@4786 = ~Aerie, if you no longer feel in the mood for this, just tell me, alright?~
@4787 = ~Yeah, well; as she showed me that, she asked me weird questions implying that at certain points of my life I loved her, and then she ardently kissed me.~
@4788 = ~Not really, that is all.~
@4789 = ~(Try to embarrass her) Oh, I forgot to mention that I had sex with her! It was incredible, you see, first... (Start to tell her the details of your fantasies.)~
@4790 = ~(Try to scare her) Oh, I forgot to mention that everything was covered in blood and innards, and when the killings were over we drank from rivers of blood and feasted on the flesh of countless children!~
@4791 = ~Pay attention, you wingless elf!~
@4792 = ~Oh... then what's the problem? That seems pretty enjoyable...!~
@4793 = ~I wish I could have such pleasant dreams more often...~
@4794 = ~N-- no, I'm fine... it was just some random memories that filled my mind for a moment...~
@4795 = ~Please, go on.~
@4796 = ~Alright then... as she showed me that, she asked me weird questions implying that at certain points of my life I loved her, and then she ardently kissed me.~
@4797 = ~Anyway I was finished already. That is all.~
@4798 = ~Huh...?~
@4799 = ~(If you didn't have Aerie's full attention before, you surely do now.)~
@4800 = ~B-- but I thought you and Imoen were just close friends from childhood... that she was almost a sister to you...~
@4801 = ~Calm down, they are only dreams... I said she was my friend, and I assure you she will never be anything more than that to me.~
@4802 = ~They are only dreams, Aerie... however, they were so real they have managed to confuse me... I don't know what to think anymore...~
@4803 = ~Although they are dreams, they have been so real that now I see things rather differently...~
@4804 = ~Well, I lied. Those dreams are the manifestation of my hidden desires towards her, now I see that clearly.~
@4805 = ~Yeah, but what I didn't say is that IT'S NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS. Get lost, you wingless wench.~
@4806 = ~(Aerie looks very surprised by your words.)~
@4807 = ~B-- but why...!? Why did you tell me that if you didn't want me to... to...~
@4808 = ~(Her eyes are filled with tears. You have truly broken her fragile heart.)~
@4809 = ~(Crying, she turns around and runs away. You have the certainty you won't see her again... just as you commanded.)~
@4810 = ~Oh... that's quite... surprising...~
@4811 = ~If you are done, we should get moving...~
@4812 = ~W-- well, I can't give you any advice... I don't know Imoen at all... I can only say that you should just follow your heart. Many times, it is the wisest part of our being...~
@4813 = ~Oh well... we have been talking for quite a while now... if you are done, we should get moving...~
@4814 = ~Oh, then I guess those dreams were just some... random reverie experiences, heheh...~
@4815 = ~Yeah? Something up, <GABBER>?~
@4816 = ~Imoen... I can't stand having you angry with me. Let's be friends, please...~
@4817 = ~Umm... Imoen... uhh, I don't know how to put it but I had these... incredibly real dreams... while coming for you... I was just wondering if *you* had them too or something that resembled them...~
@4818 = ~You know, I had erotic dreams about you, they made me really hot and I'd like to have the real thing!~
@4819 = ~I think I'm ready to talk about it... Imoen... uhh, I don't know how to put it but I had these... dreams... while coming for you... I was just wondering if *you* had them too or something that resembled them...~
@4820 = ~Imoen... I think it's about time we... talk...~
@4821 = ~Imoen, I've just remembered something you told me in one of the dreams... about your youth before Candlekeep.~
@4822 = ~(Spend some "quality time" with Imoen.)~
@4823 = ~Imoen, I just dreamt of you... and the slayer...~
@4824 = ~Umm... Imoen, why does your voice change so much when you cast spells?~
@4825 = ~Imoen, you've been a little quiet lately...~
@4826 = ~How does it feel to have your soul back, Imoen?~
@4827 = ~Imoen, I've been thinking a lot and... well, I think we shouldn't be together like this. We are siblings, what we have been doing is plainly wrong. Let's be only friends again, alright?~
@4828 = ~Imoen, I can't stand it anymore. You are the most annoying bitch I've ever met, so I command you not to talk to me again. From now on you are only a mage under my orders, have I made myself clear?~
@4829 = ~Nah, nothing...~
@4830 = ~Hah...!~
@4831 = ~Graa!~
@4832 = ~(Imoen shrugs) Alright then, if you say so...~
@4833 = ~Whaddya want to say, hmm?~
@4834 = ~Imoen, I've just remembered something you told me in one of the dreams... about before you came to Candlekeep.~
@4835 = ~So whaddya wanna say anyway?~
@4836 = ~Imoen, I'd like to talk about some dreams-- huh? Are you well, you look wounded...~
@4837 = ~Imoen... I think it's about time we... huh? Are you well, Imoen? You look wounded there...~
@4838 = ~Hey, Imoen, are you in the mood for some action... huh? Are you well, Imoen? You look hurt there...~
@4839 = ~Imoen, I just dreamt of... Hmm, are you alright?~
@4840 = ~How does it feel to have your -- hey, Imoen... you're kind of wounded, are you alright?~
@4841 = ~Imoen? You look a little wounded...~
@4842 = ~... yes?~
@4843 = ~umm... <GABBER>, I think I sprained my ankle... and my right hand hurts pretty bad, too.~
@4844 = ~Don't mind that, I wanted to talk about some dreams I had...~
@4845 = ~Don't mind that for a while... I think I'm ready to talk about the dreams...~
@4846 = ~Please, could you ignore that for a while? I think it's about time we... talk...~
@4847 = ~Owwn... couldn't you ignore it for a while? I was hoping we could do... "things", you know...?~
@4848 = ~Imoen, why didn't you tell me before? I'm gonna take you to a cleric right away.~
@4849 = ~But Imoen, I just dreamt of you and the Slayer and...~
@4850 = ~But I wanted to ask you how's it to have a soul...~
@4851 = ~You won't die from that, Imoen. We just can't stop right now...~
@4852 = ~Well, who told you I'd actually *care* about that??~
@4853 = ~<GABBER>... I... I can't move my left arm from the pain... and I think some of my ribs are broken, too...~
@4854 = ~But Imoen... I wanted to talk about some dreams I had...~
@4855 = ~But Imoen... I think it's about time we... talk...~
@4856 = ~ But Imoen... I wanted to... *ahem* do 'things', you know...~
@4857 = ~Oh my! You must receive assistance immediately!~
@4858 = ~Bah, it doesn't look that bad.~
@4859 = ~See? I knew you were too weak to actually *fight* in a battle. Cast your spells from a distance, dammit!~
@4860 = ~You... you don't look so good either...! We should get some healing...~
@4861 = ~Forget about it, Imoen... I wanted to talk about some dreams I had...~
@4862 = ~Forget about it... I think it's about time we... talk...~
@4863 = ~ Forget about it... I wanted to... *ahem* do 'things', you know...~
@4864 = ~Don't worry about me, you must receive assistance immediately!~
@4865 = ~Meh, it's nothing. And you don't look that bad.~
@4866 = ~I can handle that, but I knew you were too weak to actually *fight* in a battle. Remain in the distance when you're casting spells, dammit!~
@4867 = ~Bleh, just a scratch, I'm fine...~
@4868 = ~Well, yeah... it hurts quite a lot.~
@4869 = ~Hah, "just a scratch", "just a scratch"... you're so tough and strong, <GABBER>, I wish I was you. Yer everything I ever wanted to be in my life...~
@4870 = ~Cut that crap, will ya?? And go get me some potions...~
@4871 = ~Ohh, *really*?? You're so smart, figuring that out all by yourself... go get me some potions, dammit!!~
@4872 = ~Yeah, alright... let's see if you say that when you drop dead to the ground...~
@4873 = ~<GABBER>...? I... I can barely stand...~
@4874 = ~Heal me... quickly... please!~
@4875 = ~Imoen... I had intended to talk to you, but you are badly wounded... I'll have you healed as soon as I can.~
@4876 = ~Imoen!! Please hang in there, we'll heal you as soon as possible!!~
@4877 = ~Imoen! The dream about the Slayer must wait, you are bleeding a lot!~
@4878 = ~Imoen... I'm wounded too, I can't do much right now...~
@4879 = ~You are covered in blood... does it hurt?~
@4880 = ~Bah, it's not all *that* bad!!~
@4881 = ~Hah! Look who's begging for my help, weren't you angry with me?~
@4882 = ~Hahaah, now you'll learn to stay back in battle, weakling!!~
@4883 = ~Then shut up and find *us* some healing, dammit!!~
@4884 = ~<GABBER>...? I can't stand it... any longer... it hurts bad...~
@4885 = ~I... I'm dying...!~
@4886 = ~No, Imoen!! I will not allow it, hang in there!!~
@4887 = ~Hmm... that doesn't seem too good...~
@4888 = ~I... I'm having a hard time here too...~
@4889 = ~Now didn't you tell me that you hated me or something like that? Look who's begging for my help now, hah!~
@4890 = ~Now you see why weak people should stay in the back?~
@4891 = ~um, all right...~
@4892 = ~(Imoen looks at the numerous wounds she has.)~
@4893 = ~Oh, don't worry, they're just scratches, it's nothing really.~
@4894 = ~What were you going to say...?~
@4895 = ~Oh well, that, umm... Imoen... uhh, I don't know how to put it but I had these... incredibly real dreams... while coming for you... I was just wondering if *you* had them too or something that resembled them...~
@4896 = ~Oh, you know, I had erotic dreams about you, they made me really hot and I'd like to have the real thing!~
@4897 = ~Well, just that I think I'm ready to talk about it... Imoen... uhh, I don't know how to put it but I had these... dreams... while coming for you... I was just wondering if *you* had them too or something that resembled them...~
@4898 = ~Imoen... then I think it's about time we... talk...~
@4899 = ~Oh... Imoen, I've just remembered something you told me in one of the dreams... something about your life before Candlekeep.~
@4900 = ~Oh, in that case... (Spend some 'quality time' with Imoen.)~
@4901 = ~Oh no, I won't let you remain in that condition, you'll receive some healing right away.~
@4902 = ~(Imoen scowls as you approach. The harsh words you spoke to her are still fresh in her memory.)~
@4903 = ~What?~
@4904 = ~Uh... how does it feel to have your soul back, Imoen?~
@4905 = ~There are times when I think you are not so bad, but then you go and open your mouth and ruin everything.~
@4906 = ~You could show some respect for your superiors, girl. Go fetch me a sandwich!~
@4907 = ~Nothing, just wanted to tell you that you are the most filthy piece of shit I have ever come across. Let's go on.~
@4908 = ~(Imoen simply ignores you, refusing to lower herself to your level.)~
@4911 = ~Jaheira, I'd like to ask you something and I hope you won't be offended... all this flirting we've been doing, are we still friends or... am I becoming something more for you? I mean, you are a very close friend and I wouldn't want you to be mistaken about our relationship...~
@4912 = ~(Jaheira seems a little cofused by your question, a glint of surprise in her eyes as she arches her eyebrows. She takes a few seconds to reply, choosing the correct words to tell you) Of course not, <CHARNAME>. I am happy that you consider me a close friend, and I feel the same for you. Although I'm a little shocked that you tell me this so bluntly, I value that you expose your thoughts so clearly (she says so with a warm, sincere smile on her lips.)~
@4913	= ~Your friendship has been like the piece of wood that keeps me afloat after the shipwreck. It's been so to me since... the tragedy. (She affectionately presses your arm with her hand, her gaze, although still warm, filled with the sadness her memories bring her) We should move on now, friend. There is much for us to do.~
@4914 = ~Umm... don't mind me... I was thinking of a dream I had but it doesn't matter anymore. Just forget about it, it was nothing... let's go.~
@4915 = ~Sorry, <GABBER>, but I'm not really in the mood for talking right now... (You see Imoen glance in your direction and frown pursing her lips.)~
@4916 = ~Some other time, alright? When I'm not this pissed off...~
@4917 = ~Hey, people...!~
@4918 = ~It's good to see familiar faces...~
@4919 = ~Jaheira! How're ya doin', any improvement to your temper?~
@4920 = ~... It's... a relief to see you are well, Imoen.~
@4921 = ~Yeah... I missed you too.~
@4922 = ~Hey, Minsc, glad to see you're still with us...! And little Boo too, heheh...~
@4923 = ~Boo knew you would be alright! He has been sad without little Imoen, but now everything is good and well and Boo is happy again!~
@4924 = ~Sure Minsc... sure it was only Boo, heh...~
@4925 = ~Hmm, but... who's that? A drow in the party, <CHARNAME>...? It could only be... Viconia!~
@4926 = ~Oh, Viconia! You look quite different from last time I saw you... did you dye your hair or something?~
@4927 = ~I could ask almost the same question, girl.~
@4928 = ~Oh, yeah...! I changed my haircut in Baldur's Gate, after the "incident". You weren't with us any more at that point I recall... you like it? It fits me better, dontcha think?~
@4929 = ~(Viconia snorts and ignores Imoen, her interest in the matter completely lost already.)~
@4930 = ~Oh well, you haven't changed much, heh... it's good to see you again nevertheless.~
@4931 = ~... Red clothes... weird piercings... strange beard... and that "I'm-better-than-you" look...~
@4932 = ~Edwin. (Imoen sighs) Still with nothing better to do than following <CHARNAME> in <PRO_HISHER> crazy quests, you mad wizard?~
@4933 = ~Better watch your tongue, brat. Without my outstanding abilities you would surely be rotting in that cell still. Show some respect for your superiors.~
@4934 = ~Hahah! Yer just plain *cute*, Edwin! I think this is the beginning of a *great* friendship between you and me, really!~
@4935 = ~Hmpf... (As if you would allow that to happen...)~
@4936 = ~Huh, did ya say something, Edwhiney?~
@4937 = ~That I should have stabbed you in the back when I had the opportunity before, annoying brat!~
@4938 = ~Oh, and now you are just flattering me! You're sooooo cute...~
@4939 = ~Oh well... traveling together once again. Let's see what happens...~
@4940 = ~Yesss! (Imoen takes a deep breath and steps forward, stretching her limbs) Yes, AIR, at last fresh air...!~
@4941 = ~It's wonderful, WONDERFUL!! (As she fills her lungs all she can, she spreads her arms and tosses her head back, spinning in delight, enjoying the moment) So fresh, so clean... so untainted...!~
@4942 = ~Aahh... (She looks back at you, a radiant smile on her lips) you *don't know* how much I missed the sky... This is GREAT! (Imoen is almost giddy. It's impressive how fast her mood can change...)~
@4943 = ~C'mon, Let's go! Let's go and fight and sleep and run and *breathe*...!~
@4944 = ~(Oh well... she's happy again, it seems. You can't help but wonder how long it will last.)~
@4945 = ~Better ye nay be teasin' with one *dwarven* drow, lass! Me axe be as big as it was before, an' these black limbs can wield it as deadly!~
@4946 = ~Sure Korgan... an' now ya can reach others necks with it, hmm?~
@4947 = ~True enough, hah hah!~
@4948 = ~Heheheh... Edwin, you're such a beautiful *female* drow...~
@4949 = ~Any other word about it, girl, and I will-~
@4950 = ~Do a striptease?~
@4951 = ~AGH! You are close to being incinerated, pathetic excuse for a-~
@4952 = ~Hahah, why ya get so upset, Edwhiney...? oh, I get it, it's one of "those days", right? Don't worry, I understand you, I'm a woman too after all...~
@4953 = ~WHAT!? I AM NOT A WOMAN!! And YOU do *not* UNDERSTAND *ME*!~
@4954 = ~But I do! Here, take these and go behind that rock... (Imoen hands Edwin some kind of handkerchiefs, but you are not close enough to see exactly what they are) Put them around your-~
@4955 = ~Shut your mouth!! (Edwin's glare could melt an iceberg, but Imoen simply smiles at *her* knowingly) Leave me alone!!~
@4956 = ~(She -Edwin- storms away... however you notice that he *did* take the strange bandages... although you aren't naive enough not to get an idea of what Imoen just gave 'him'.)~
@4957 = ~... Why did Adalon turn him into a *female* drow? I guess dragons also have some kind of wicked sense of humor, heheh... Umm... so where was I...? Oh yeah...~
@4958 = ~Heheeh... first a woman, now a drow... what will come next, Edwin?~
@4959 = ~Hahah, I'd like to see you *try*, Edwin! No need to be upset, itchy... if you're so smart you should learn to have a sense of humor! Dontcha know that laughing is healthy? You'll die of seriousness one of these days...~
@4960 = ~Hmpf... leave me alone, brat. You are too immature to address me (Edwin dismisses Imoen with a movement of his dark hand and steps away muttering to himself.)~
@4961 = ~(Why does she worry about me? Can't everyone just leave me alone?)~
@4962 = ~Heh... so, umm, where was I? Oh, yeah...~
@4963 = ~K-Korgan, is *that* you!? Wow, you're quite a hunk now! How does it feel to be able to see others' faces from above?~
@4964 = ~Yay... fun in the Illithid cell.~
@4965 = ~I'm BORED, when will those tentacle thingies come and do whatever they want to do with us? This silence is killing me...~
@4966 = ~Imoen... I'm pretty sure that whatever those creatures have in store for us is... is far worse than being here doing nothing...~
@4967 = ~For once I agree with you, wingless. Girl, you will be begging for this 'silence' soon enough.~
@4968 = ~You will be begging for this "silence" soon enough, girl. Soon the only thing you will be able to hear will be screams of pain and sounds of madness. The Illithids will get inside your mind and crack it like a nutshell. (Viconia smiles wickedly) It will not be pleasant, you can be sure of that.~
@4969 = ~What a great perspective...~
@4970 = ~Girl... shut up. This is bad enough without your incessant chatter.~
@4971 = ~Ooh, are you scared, Edwin? Don't worry, Imoen is here to protect you, nothing will harm you, I promise...~
@4972 = ~Agh... just *shut up*! (Don't lose control, Edwin! Don't show your fear, she can smell it!)~
@4973 = ~Heheh...~
@4974 = ~Do not worry, my dear. Everything will be alright. You have to be strong...~
@4975 = ~Oh, don't mind me, Keldorn, I'm fine... I've been in worse ones, heh...~
@4976 = ~Oh well... let's just sit down and wait... how fun. (Imoen sighs.)~
@4977 = ~( ... )~
@4978 = ~Right-o, you really know how to have fun, <CHARNAME>! To the sewers, let's find a gong that probably will own a kobold named "Roger", who-hoo!~
@4979 = ~He nay be a kobold, my Lady... I -- I think...~
@4980 = ~Gag me with a spoon, now the great bhaalspawn <CHARNAME>, all tremble at <PRO_HISHER> name, is going to lug around a dung covered gong all through the realms? What's next, cleaning golden pantaloons like in the Friendly Arm Inn? Gimme a break...~
@4981 = ~I cannot believe we did that back then... as I can't believe what we are doing now...~
@4982 = ~Can't say I'm surprised... lemme guess: this Drush guy sold the gong to a talking snake in Trademeet. This quest *can't* get any more stupid already...~
@4983 = ~Uh... what would a Yuan-ti want with a gong, Imoen?~
@4984 = ~(Imoen shrugs) for the same reason as a troll or an ogre, I s'pose...~
@4985 = ~Oooh. Makes sense.~
@4986 = ~Yer welcome, pal! It only took us two days of wandering through Amn, it was nothing really... Just don't get into another crazy situation like this again, hmm?~
@4987 = ~And, to make your decision more meaningful, someone that is more dear to you than others will be taken.~
@4988 = ~How about you, Child of Bhaal. Yes, you would do nicely indeed. But here even your essence has power... power enough to prevent one such as I from taking you against your will.~
@4989 = ~That's good to hear, uh... mister...~
@4990 = ~It matters not. There are better choices than you, yes... The Avariel girl will place you in a dire situation, Child of Murder.~
@4991 = ~No!~
@4992 = ~Silence. I will see you in the other side.~
@4993 = ~It matters not. There are other choices, yes... the half-elven woman will place you in a dire situation, Child of Murder.~
@4994 = ~Silence. I will see you in the other side.~
@4995 = ~It matters not. There are other choices, yes... the human girl will place you in a dire situation, Child of Murder.~
@4996 = ~No!~
@4997 = ~It matters not. There are other choices. The human warrior will place you in a dire situation, Child of Murder.~
@4998 = ~We do not fear you, fiend!~
@4999 = ~It matters not. There are other choices. The human paladin will place you in a dire situation, Child of Murder.~
@5000 = ~Do not worry about me, <CHARNAME>! Do what you must!~
@5001 = ~It matters not. My resources are vast. This will place you in a dire situation, Child of Murder.~
@5002 = ~I will see you in the other side.~ 
@5003 = ~It matters not. There are other choices. Your other companion will place you in a dire situation, Child of Murder.~
@5004 = ~Aerie, no!! <CHARNAME>, you must do something!~
@5005 = ~Jaheira! <CHARNAME>, you must do something!~
@5006 = ~Nalia! <CHARNAME>, you must do something!~
@5007 = ~Oh, no, Minsc...~
@5008 = ~Oh, no, Keldorn...~
@5009 = ~Oh, no...~ 
@5010 = ~Don't let Aerie die! Please, please <CHARNAME>...~
@5011 = ~I would never let any of my companions die, Imoen. I know which path I must choose.~
@5012 = ~That is exactly what I will do. I don't need her.~ 
@5013 = ~I will save her... for you, my love.~ 
@5014 = ~But Imoen... I need all of my strength for the battle that is to come. It is a difficult decision but... if we want to survive, she must be sacrificed.~ 
@5015 = ~Don't worry, I have a plan... I will take the path to the demon's right, but then I will raise her from the dead and everything will be alright, heheh...~
@5016 = ~That's... good. Be careful... I'm sure it won't be pleasant to go through that passage... you are very strong, and Aerie doesn't deserve to die like this after all she's done for us...~
@5017 = ~No, <CHARNAME>! She doesn't deserve that, after all she's done for us! Save her... please... do it for me?~
@5018 = ~Uh, of course, of course, *ahem* I'd never let any of my companions die, I guess... *ahem*~
@5019 = ~No. I need my strength, and I don't need her. It's an easy choice.~ 
@5020 = ~Very well, I will save her... for you, my love.~ 
@5021 = ~No, no...! Don't be selfish, don't fall for Bhaal's temptations, <CHARNAME>!~ 
@5022 = ~Do... what you must. I guess I can't judge you on this... with -- with luck we'll be able to raise her again...~
@5023 = ~I... I can't look, I can't... (Imoen turns away and covers her face with both hands.)~
@5024 = ~But... what if we can't raise her afterwards? What if this... 'fiend' kills *both* her body and her soul...?~
@5025 = ~Don't let that creature do-- uh, hmmm...~
@5026 = ~Y'know... for a demon, this guy isn't very smart...~
@5027 = ~Do whatever you want, <CHARNAME>, heh... if she dies we can raise her afterwards just like we always do! But, well, better if you take the selfless path... to save her the pain of dying so cruelly, I mean...~
@5028 = ~But... agh, you'll need all of your strength to face Irenicus! I just don't know, it's your choice... I'll support you whatever you do.~
@5029 = ~Do whatever you want, <CHARNAME>, heh... if he dies we can raise him afterwards just like we always do! But, well, better if you take the selfless path... to save him the pain of dying so cruelly, I mean...~
@5030 = ~Do whatever you want, <CHARNAME>, heh... if you take the path to his right we can raise the fallen like we always do! But, well, better if you take the selfless path... to save our companion the pain of dying so cruelly, I mean...~
@5031 = ~Acks, now that's nasty...~
@5032 = ~That poor guy, he doesn't deserve to die... but -- but I can't judge you on this, <CHARNAME>... if we are going to face Irenicus, you'll need all of your strength...~
@5033 = ~I'd prefer that you took the selfless path, y'know, do the 'good' thing and all... but I will support you whatever choice you make, I want you to know that...~
@5034 = ~And you know that, if I were the one that was waiting there, I wouldn't mind dying at all, right...? Your quest... is far more important than my life.~
@5035 = ~Besides, (Imoen smiles) you'd raise me as soon as you got the Tear of Bhaal, heheh!~
@5036 = ~Imoen, why didn't you say it before? Meet Kitthix, the Black Spider! (Start to pull out your figurine.)~
@5037 = ~Imoen, why didn't you say it before? Meet IMPROVED KITTHIX, the Super-Black Spider! (Start to pull out your figurine.)~ 
@5038 = ~(Let her go on rambling...)~ 
@5039 = ~Agh, no, no, get that thing outta my sight! Geez, can't you tell yet when I'm joking and when I'm being serious?~
@5040 = ~SO, where was I? I was about to tell you something really important... what was it...? I hate it when that happens. You think of something and a second later it goes "poof", and disappears from your mind! It's so annoying...~
@5041 = ~I really should make notes... oh, wait, wait, it has come back!~
@5042 = ~Hmmm... red clothes... lotsa weird piercings... and that "I'm-better-than-you" look... just who are you, woman? You remind me of someone but... I can't really tell...~
@5043 = ~I am no one that you know of, brat. Leave me alone.~
@5044 = ~Oh... (Imoen's suspicious look turns into one of disbelief as a crazy idea grows in her mind) oh, oh my! You're... no, it just can't be, it's impossible...~
@5045 = ~(Aerie giggles) It... it *is* possible I fear, Imoen...~
@5046 = ~I fear it *is* possible indeed, Imoen... "she" is Edwin.~
@5047 = ~This wretch you see here is indeed who you think "she" is, girl.~
@5048 = ~"She" is the mage known as Edwin before his unfortunate... 'incident', Imoen.~
@5049 = ~... Edwin? Is-- is that you? (Imoen can hardly hold her laughter.)~
@5050 = ~No I'm NOT! Stop PESTERING ME, girl!!~
@5051 = ~(She finally bursts laughing) Ooohh, it's *really* you!! Just-- just WHAT happened!?~
@5052 = ~None of your business, annoying brat!! I should have stabbed you in the back when I had the chance before!~
@5053 = ~(Imoen ignores the mage's yelling) Oh but Edwin, you are *so* attractive now! How many hearts have you broken already, you little hotty? I'm sure every man sighs and drools when you pass by, hehehee!~
@5054 = ~AGH! Leave me be!! (The mage steps away from Imoen, muttering to him -or rather her- self...)~
@5055 = ~Oh I'm SO gonna enjoy this...~
@5056 = ~D'you want something from me, Imoen? No, Imoen. Aright Imoen! Oh you are SO wise, Imoen!~
@5057 = ~I don't like being hurt, Imoen... you're right, me neither, Imoen...! We always agree with each other, Imoen.~
@5058 = ~(When Aerie begins to clean it, Imoen approaches, smiles winking at you, and gives you a brief hug too.)~
@5059 = ~Heheheh, that's a relief, I really feared you'd get mad at us! (She hugs you in a thankful gesture.)~
@5060 = ~You... you bastard! You will pay for what you've done to me, I'll kill you, Irenicus! I'll kill you!!~
@5061 = ~Now you're seeking some bastard that could be more powerful than Elminster and Khelben together, having struggled already to kill his sister, who happened to be a vampiress with a stolen god-like soul (which was *mine* by the way...)~
@5062 = ~Aerie, are you... alright?~
@5063 = ~I... I think so...~
@5064 = ~What happened...? My head hurts... I-- I only remember being taken by that monster and... and now I'm here again...~
@5065 = ~<CHARNAME> just raised you... I was so afraid that you wouldn't come back...! (Imoen hugs Aerie tightly, happy to see her well again.)~
@5066 = ~Imoen... Imoen you are hurting me, don't squeeze that much...! I am glad to breathe again, hehe...~
@5067 = ~(Imoen releases her) Sorry, sorry heh... it's great to see you're good'n'well.~
@5068 = ~Let's see what comes next then...~
@5069 = ~Hey hey, just where are you going!? At least *try* to raise her! C'mon, go, go!!~
@5070 = ~(You come closer to Imoen with the intention of saying something charming to her. She has been a little sad lately.)~ [MRImRom5]
@5071 = ~(Imoen gently takes your hand and kisses it; as she puts it on her waist, you can almost hear her say "Please don't touch me there." She doesn't let this discourage you, for then she guides your hand downwards, from her hips to the intimacy of her clothes.)~
@5072 = ~(Imoen gently takes your hand and kisses it; as she puts it on her hip, you can almost hear her say "Please don't touch me there." She doesn't let this discourage you, for then she guides your hand upwards, from her waist to the depths of her tunic.)~
@5073 = ~(She can't restrain a moan as your hands seek out her soft curves, while hers wander over your skin, sinking in the depths of your own clothes; your senses are overwhelmed by a torrent of feelings that boom inside your head as you cover every inch of her body with your strokes.)~
@5074 = ~(She bites her lip and can't restrain a loud moan as your hands seek out her soft curves and darkest depths, while her own hands hunger for the same, covering every inch of your body with her strokes.)~
@5075 = ~What... what happened? (Aerie looks as if she has come out of a dreadful dream. She puts a hand on her forehead, leaning on Imoen for support) My vision is still blurry...~
@5076 = ~I-- I only remember being taken by that monster and... and now I'm here again...~
@5077 = ~<CHARNAME> sacrificed part of <PRO_HIMHER>self to save you...~
@5078 = ~<PRO_HESHE> did that...? (She glances at you, and notices you *do* look slightly weaker.)~
@5079 = ~I... thank you, <CHARNAME>. You chose the selfless path... although I cannot believe Imoen let you sacrifice yourself only for me. (She turns to her friend.)~
@5080 = ~I know, I know...! I just couldn't think right, I was so afraid that you wouldn't survive! (Imoen hugs Aerie tightly, happy to see her well again.)~
@5081 = ~Imoen... Imoen you-- you are hurting me, don't squeeze so much...! Hehe, I am glad to see you again... I didn't know you held me in such great esteem...~
@5082 = ~(Imoen releases her) Sorry, sorry heh... it's great to see you're good'n'well, that's all. What could I do without someone like ya to be my victim? <CHARNAME>'s becoming just too hard to fool lately!~
@5083 = ~You should not have told <PRO_HIMHER> to go down one path or the other, Imoen. You coerced <PRO_HIMHER> to make the decision you wanted and didn't let <PRO_HIMHER> choose freely; you know how obliging <PRO_HESHE> is towards you.~
@5084 = ~Oohh, just don't tell me off, alright? I know I shouldn't have, it was just, just... oh leave me be, it's done and can't be changed!~
@5085 = ~B'sides, heh... there's a nice reward awaiting <CHARNAME> when all of this finishes... (She winks at you mischievously) I'm sure <PRO_HESHE>'ll recover pretty well with my... attentions, heheh...~
@5086 = ~B'sides, <CHARNAME> can take anything <PRO_HESHE> wants! (She winks at you) Oooh, you're sooo powerful and great, <CHARNAME>...! And a paladin of virtue, righteousness and selflessness!!~
@5087 = ~Eek... that was more than I wanted to hear, Imoen...~
@5088 = ~Yeah right... you didn't think that when you ask--~
@5089 = ~Sssh!! I don't know what you are talking about...! (With complicity in their eyes, they both titter glancing at you from time to time.)~
@5090 = ~Hmm... does that flagrant flattery work very often for you...?~
@5091 = ~Ya should try it, you'd be surprised with all you get, heheh... (they both titter glancing at you from time to time.)~
@5092 = ~I've heard you are the mean pirate that helps people out... I need your help, but not your out.~
@5093 = ~Hah! I don't know who may have told you that... and you don't seem to know whom you are facing right now. State your business before I lose my patience.~
@5094 = ~Excellent, excellent. Can you help me touch my butt with my nose? My mother told me to do it back when the dog was barking, but all my attempts have been in vain.~
@5095 = ~Do you want some apples? I can give you tons and tons of apples if you send me to Spellhold; a ship with ten thousand apples will arrive every day, I swear it in the name of the wise men from Porryplopy.~
@5096 = ~(The frown of the Pirate Lord deepens) Is this some kind of joke? You seem eager to meet my steel, idiot. Get out of here.~
@5097 = ~Well tell that to the sparrows that fly faster than the morning zephyr! One hand to eat, the other to look at the sky and tell yourself "Tomorrow will be another day!" while the sun sets behind Spellhold!~
@5098 = ~Hi Mister Steel, I'm your friend <CHARNAME>! Hey you look cold, do you want a blanket!? What do you say? Alright, I will buy some beans on my way to Spellhold, thank you. Do you think I should change my clothes? They are beginning to have a weird smell.~
@5099 = ~What are you rambling about!? I think you should be sent to Spellhold indeed, you lunatic fool! Get out of my sight before I commit you there!~
@5100 = ~Tell you what, you're a nice fellow. I'll put it all in an old wooden box with a rusty lock and throw it into the sea, guard it with my life and never poop in my pantaloons, alright?~
@5101 = ~THE MOON IS BLINDING ME!! Someone go fetch me a wooden stick so I can beat this monkey until he pukes his brains out! Let's have lunch in the forest, haha!~
@5102 = ~Lollipop! Lollipop! My world is a blue and green lollipop with happy thoughts and a pointy end! Praise the big hand of the father for this great day!~
@5103 = ~I look into your eyes and I see myself when I was younger and couldn't hold a single word about my shames for all I can do now is think about how you jumped to the tree!!~
@5104 = ~Enough!! Enough of this, you will get what you deserve while you rot in Spellhold, you raving mad<PRO_MANWOMAN>!~
@5105 = ~By the gods, I think I'm getting stupidish for talking to you. Stupider!? Get <PRO_HIMHER> out of my sight, NOW!! I am not going to risk my own sanity by keeping this loony around!!~
@5106 = ~By the gods, I think I'm getting stupidish for talking to you. Stupider!? Get them out of my sight NOW, all of them!! They may all have <PRO_HISHER> disease of mind, and I am not going to risk my own sanity by keeping them around!!~
@5107 = ~Getting into the Asylum - Desharik is a bad, bad man

I don't know why, I am to be thrown into the Asylum. I simply tried to be friendly to the mean Pirate Lord, but he is just too mean for his own good. I could have argued about his bad manners, but I'm curious if there will be a good food service in that Inn everyone talks about, that "Spellhold" or some such. Well, I miss Imoen too, she was a funny girl to keep around, and I have to find this person everyone tells me I'm after... I don't quite remember his name, Hygienicus? 

Whatever...~
@5108 = ~I... (Imoen sighs deeply; you notice her lips tremble while exhaling) I think it'd be better if I just told you everything about it right now and got rid of this... this horrible feeling inside me. I've kinda managed to keep it away from my thoughts but... I-- I need to bring it outta my chest, it's just too much...~
@5109 = ~I... remember myself huddling in a corner, when I hadn't passed out... without moving at all. Everything was darkness... and whispers, and-- and if I opened my eyes I saw all those shadows moving around me, touching me...~
@5110 = ~(As she goes further into her memories, Imoen no longer seems to be aware of your presence; she speaks staring into the air, as if she was talking to herself) Those were the times when I really felt myself slipping away... losing my touch with reality. At least I passed out frequently, otherwise I would have gone insane... I think I did in the end, anyway.~
@5111 = ~On one of those nights, he came to me... he had just left me there alone with my torment, and I was nearly unconscious already... but I felt the drowsiness go away all of sudden.~
@5112 = ~I knew that feeling... I knew I was to be taken again to that place where he experimented on me...~
@5113 = ~I... I couldn't have imagined how wrong I was...~
@5114 = ~<CHARNAME>, I...~ 
@5115 = ~(Aerie looks very nervous, troubled. Her eyes go from Imoen to you, from you to Imoen, and back to you again. You still remember what you shared together, and know perfectly well that she does too.)~
@5116 = ~I... I hope you and Imoen will be happy together...~
@5117 = ~(She falls silent and steps away... looking worriedly at the elf, Imoen approaches you and gives you a supportive hug.)~
@5118 = ~Poor Aerie...~
@5119 = ~She was a foolish girl that fell in love with a Child of Bhaal... something that could only end up hurting her.~
@5120 = ~(Imoen looks into your eyes) I've thought about it a lot, <CHARNAME>... We know what the other feels, know of this thing inside us... We share this rare bond that links our hearts... our souls... and that's why I know we'd never be able to hurt each other.~
@5121 = ~Obviously you and Aerie didn't have that... (She turns her head to look at her again, sadness in her gaze) and thus happened what logically had to happen.~
@5122 = ~I don't think she likes me much now... probably she thinks I stole ya from her or something. Or worse, that she pushed ya right to my arms...~
@5123 = ~I'll have some words with her... I'd like her to be comfortable while traveling with us, at least... y'know, I like that girl.~
@5124 = ~Will do. Let's go on for now, my cutie-tushy...~
@5125 = ~Hehee, I'm so gonna have a great time making up pet names for ya...~
@5126 = ~(She falls silent and steps away... you see Imoen look worriedly at her in the distance.)~
@5127 = ~Aerie... stop looking at me like that, please.~ 
@5128 = ~(Aerie is startled by Imoen's sudden interruption of her thoughts; she was indeed looking at her) I-- excuse me?~
@5129 = ~Don't act innocent, Aerie! (You see her purse her lips and approach the confused elf so she will be able to talk with her in private. You can still hear them, Imoen has made sure of that.)~
@5130 = ~Look Aerie... I'd like to have some words with ya. I know you don't like me much right now...~
@5131 = ~I... why-- why do you think that?~
@5132 = ~Do you think I don't know 'bout what happened between <CHARNAME> and you, Aerie? You hate me because you think I stole <PRO_HIMHER> from you...~
@5133 = ~(Aerie's cheeks redden slightly) What!? No, I would never think that! And I would never hate you for something that is not your fault, either...~
@5134 = ~<CHARNAME> and I just... just didn't work together. I... I *did* have this strange hope that we would overcome it and be together again but... it's obvious it won't be like that...~
@5135 = ~But I don't blame you or <PRO_HIMHER> for it, they are just... things that happen. Yesterday <PRO_HESHE> loved me, today it is you... who knows what will happen tomorrow...?~
@5136 = ~Ah, so ya still hope <PRO_HESHE>'ll be back to ya, huh? (Imoen looks a little angered by Aerie's words, at first. Then she seems to reconsider, and puts her arm around the Avariel's shoulders.)~
@5137 = ~B-but I don't--~
@5138 = ~No, no, lemme tell ya something...~
@5139 = ~Aerie... we, what <CHARNAME> and I share, is different to what you two shared... our relationships are different, what you had with <CHARNAME> can't be compared to what <PRO_HESHE> and I have. Y'know that both of us are Bhaalspawn... an' although that sounds *really* scary even to me, it makes us be kinda... connected.~
@5140 = ~Whenever I'm close to <PRO_HIMHER>, I not only can feel <PRO_HISHER> lips on mine, <PRO_HISHER> heart in <PRO_HISHER> chest or <PRO_HISHER> hands on my skin... I can feel <PRO_HISHER> *soul* pumping in sync with mine...~
@5141 = ~And it's such a feeling that it just can't be described, Aerie. We know what lies within each other... we *know* each other.~
@5142 = ~We spent our youths together, we've been together all of our lives... we share a common bond that possibly no one could understand. But anyway, that's not the reason why I wanted to talk to you...~
@5143 = ~I just wanted, well... I wanted to be your friend, mostly.~
@5144 = ~And the last thing *I'd* like is having you glaring at me all the time. Like you were doing just a moment ago, no matter what you say, heh...~
@5145 = ~You're a nice girl, Aerie. A wise woman, indeed. And I'd prefer to have a friend in you rather than a bitch that plots my downfall, hehehe... --that was a joke, by the way...~
@5146 = ~Oh Imoen I don't know why you think I'd hate you or-- or, or have revengeful thoughts towards you or anything like that! It's only that when I look at you two together all those brief happy moments I had with <CHARNAME> stir in my mind and... and I can't help feeling sad, and bitter, and... and, well, and... lonely...~
@5147 = ~My... friend?~
@5148 = ~I know all this is hard for ya... I know what you've been through, an' I know that the last thing ya deserve is traveling with Miss Bitterness and <PRO_LADYLORD> Scornful Glares by your side, if y'know what I mean...~
@5149 = ~Aaww... y'know, yer quite cute too. But I'm sure ya knew that already, hehe...~
@5150 = ~(A smile appears on Aerie's lips) You are just flattering me so I forget about all that...~
@5151 = ~Yeah, did it work?~
@5152 = ~Maybe... if you say it a couple times again.~
@5153 = ~(Both women giggle. You must admit it is a beautiful sound.)~
@5154 = ~Hehehe, Aerie, as I read in some book back in Candlekeep, "this is the beginning of a beautiful relationship."~
@5155 = ~I... I really hope so, Imoen. And I *truly* hope you will be happy with <CHARNAME>.~
@5156 = ~Yer a nice fellow...~
@5157 = ~Heh... three lesbians traveling together. And two of them are Bhaalspawn! Weird, dontcha think?~
@5158 = ~Uh... why do you say that? Where are all those lesbians??~
@5159 = ~Err, don't know if you've noticed but... <CHARNAME> IS A WOMAN!! Doesn't that imply that I love a woman, and that you loved a woman once!? Last time I checked, that pretty much is being a lesbian, huh?~
@5160 = ~WHAT!? <CHARNAME> is not a woman! Just why are you saying that!?~
@5161 = ~Hmmmm... I think *someone's* been playin' with some global variables here. An' with some scripts too. "They" made ya believe <CHARNAME>'s a man, but she's a woman, I can assure you that. I got the "us both being women" dialogue, go figure...~
@5162 = ~Hmpf!! "They" and their happy patches! I DID find strange that <CHARNAME> had 'protuberances' bigger than mine on "his" chest --quite sensitive by the way-- and NO 'protuberance' *down there*. I thought it was a Bhaalspawn mark or something...~
@5163 = ~Yer pretty naive, heheh...~
@5164 = ~Well, some of the IF-THEN blocks that would have made me aware of that are gone, so I had no option! HMPF, she didn't even tell me about it...~
@5165 = ~She didn't have the option either... she just thought t'was fun playin' along, heheh... anyway I'm sure ya enjoyed yourself. I do, that's for sure (Imoen sniggers.)~
@5166 = ~If "they" cheat, I'm not really in the mood to keep in character, so I won't blush over what you just said. Indeed, I'll tell you that I loved her tongue. And her fingers, oh Baervan bless her fingers... they made me have incredible orgasm after incredible orgasm. Hah! You didn't expect me to say that, huh!?~
@5167 = ~Whoa... wild Aerie takes control, hehe! Well, I must admit she's really good at that. Who knows, we may have some... fun together, the three of us, hmmm...?~
@5168 = ~Actually... I'd love to see if you are a *true* red-head... if you know what I mean. I assure you I'm a true blonde, but you might want to check yourself...~
@5169 = ~It would be nice to see... some day. Maybe when we travel together a little... don't know, in other country, like Tethyr...? Who knows... there's only one way of finding it out.~
@5170 = ~Asking Lord Mirrabbo(copyrighted trademark, all rights reserved)? I've heard he is a lesser god, incredibly wise and powerful. Maybe he knows?~
@5171 = ~HAH! Mirrabbo, pfft... sure he knows. But you won't get a thing from that jerk though. A sad guy, I tell ya. I know him pretty well, although he can't say the same about me...~
@5172 = ~As if *anyone* could know you well, Imoen. Anyway, this Easter egg is getting quite silly now, so let's just drop it, alright?~
@5173 = ~I'm all for that. I'd like to see if you're a true blonde, by the way. I'm a sorta nympho, y'know? Especially with elves... I love sweet, slim elven girls. Jaheira makes me hot, and better if I don't tell you about my fantasies with Viconia... and the four of us together...~
@5174 = ~Alright, that's just too much. I'll send a prayer to Lord Mirrabbo(c)(R)(tm) so he won't fantasize so much about you and the other Bioware(tm) girls. I'm beginning to think he's quite sad, too...~
@5175 = ~Yeah, who else would write something as dirty and stupid as the crazy thing I've just said, EVEN if it is a nearly-impossible-to-get Easter egg? Doesn't he realize a lot of people will look into the dialogue files, and will find this!? Meh, let's just go on... that guy makes me sick, truth be told.
(Imoen turns to the camera, and an Icewind Dale II game box appears in her left hand.)
Oh, and buy Bioware games! If they are Bioware, they are good! (She grins, her right thumb up, and winks at YOU.)~
@5176 = ~(Both women giggle.)~
@5177 = ~I'm preparing the place where I am going to sleep as I do every time we rest, obviously.~
@5178 = ~You said you wanted to rest here. Disobeying you is not a wise thing to do, so I am doing what you told me to do...!~
@5179 = ~Have you seen my teddy bear? I need it to fall asleep. You haven't stolen it again, have you?~
@5180 = ~(Imoen's cheeks redden slightly at the realization) S-- so ya like women...? (After her first moment of surprise, her face goes pale; she looks troubled and confused. It is as if she has imagined this situation countless times before.)~
@5181 = ~Yeah, I understand now. I understand that you are one of those straight purist whores full of prejudices against those that have different tastes!~
@5182 = ~(Your words seem to upset Imoen much more than you expected. She blushes brightly, sparks in her eyes.)~
@5183 = ~It's NOT like that, <CHARNAME>, I assure you. I'm the last person you could ever tell that, there are many things you don't know about me.~
@5184 = ~Look, I won't consider your words true, for I know it's your pain who talks, not you. But careful with what you say.~
@5185 = ~Yes, of course I do. You are just another bitch that just wants me to help them without giving something in exchange.~
@5186 = ~Whoa!! It was about time... alone in the forest, let's have some action! (Begin to undress.)~
@5187 = ~(Her eyes widen when she sees you like that. You realize too late that, surprisingly enough, Imoen wasn't suggesting you have some wild sex by the campfire...)~
@5188 = ~(She goes pale. Then can't hold it anymore and bursts into laughter.)~
@5189 = ~(She -Edwin- storms away... however you notice that he *did* take the "strange bandages"... looks like Edwin is learning by himself how hard being a female adventurer can become at times.)~
@5190 = ~What was that!!?~
@5191 = ~(Imoen stares at the flames. You both are sitting around the small fire, but few words have been said up to now, just some casual comments. Finally, Imoen speaks.)~ [MRImRom5]
@5192 = ~(She shows it to you; upon further examination you can see it's a little figurine, made of ivory or some such, in the form of a musical stringed instrument; you are not sure given its small proportions, but your expert eyes recognize it as a guitar, a very rare instrument you have only seen in books.)~
@5193 = ~(Without pausing, she starts casting a spell before your eyes.)~
@5194 = ~I was amazed when I first saw it 'grow', heh... I had no idea things like this existed. He didn't tell me from where he had gotten it; he just told me it was from far away to the south, "past Lapaliiya and Halruaa", he said... I didn't even know those places existed back then, and even now I don't really know what might be beyond that...~
@5195 = ~He said it's a "guitar", and a magic one at that... it sounds kinda funny, dontcha think? "Guitar"... (She shrugs) I didn't care much about the name anyway.~
@5196 = ~Y'know, I was quite surprised he didn't give it to ya instead... ya were quite into music an' all the bardish stuff... (she shrugs again) he didn't want to spoil you *even* more I guess, heh... but anyway...~
@5197 = ~B'sides there was already one bard around... no need for two, 'specially if the second was as *bad* as me...~
@5198 = ~How come you've been able to learn so much? You didn't spend much time alone, as I recall.~
@5199 = ~Imoen, I would have welcome a "partner in arms" very gladly... we could have been a great duo. Why did you hide this from me?~
@5200 = ~Imoen, please take no offense, but I don't like music at all... I beg that you stop playing.~
@5201 = ~Oh well, if ya don't like it there's no point in going on playing... show's over then!~
@5202 = ~(Nod and let her continue playing.)~
@5203 = ~(Indeed, her music seems to have instilled a spirit of companionship in the hearts of those in your party that had previously been absent.)~
@5204 = ~(Topics wander from reminiscence of the past to future plans until the fire is reduced to embers, always avoiding the present. For tonight, Irenicus and Bodhi are replaced by mundane stories, heated discussions or lighthearted jokes, making all the tension and worry about your present situation fade away.)~
@5205 = ~(Finally, the time to rest comes, and everyone retires to their respective bedroll. You see Imoen prepares hers a little away from the rest... then she lies on her back and just stays there, gazing the stars until she falls asleep.)~
@5206 = ~(Soon enough Imoen is laughing lightheartedly while remembering stories from happier times in Candlekeep, and you spend the night talking about past and future alike until the fire is reduced to embers, always avoiding the present.)~
@5207 = ~(For tonight, Irenicus and Bodhi are replaced by mundane stories and resilient jokes, making all the tension and worry about your present situation fade away.)~
@5208 = ~(Somehow you end up lying on the turf resting on your backs, talking about anything while you gaze at the countless stars that populate the firmament, until she falls asleep.)~
@5209 = ~Well, I had many dreams. The first three ones were about my taint; the others, however... (begin to tell her all about your dreams.)~
@5210 = ~<CHARNAME>, <CHARNAME>...! (Imoen looks uneasy, but you can't tell why) Yer going too fast, my head is still spinning and you're tellin' me about some crazy dreams you had 'bout me...~
@5211 = ~Those can wait, dontcha think? The others, the, uh, "tainted" ones, have some kind of priority...~
@5212 = ~It seems dead gods never rest easy... an' you've always been prone to have these weird dreams about the taint... you have dealt with it quite a lot longer than me, y'know...~
@5213 = ~<CHARNAME>, <CHARNAME>...! (Imoen looks uneasy. You notice she wants to avoid this topic for now) Yer going too fast, my head is still spinning and you're tellin' me about some crazy dreams you had 'bout me...~
@5214 = ~(Just hug her supportively.)~
@5215 = ~(As you hug her you feel Imoen is trembling slightly. She must be making true efforts to keep calm and be useful in your escape.)~
@5216 = ~<CHARNAME>, I... some-- something is inside my head, I can feel it... It's no normal ache, it's something like... piercing my very mind... like small needles in the back of my head, or a knife cutting slowly into my brain, painfully stabbing my thoughts... I don't know what he did, <CHARNAME>, but it sure is killing me...~
@5217 = ~It's just too much for me to stand... do it for me... please?~
@5218 = ~You are becoming a burden, Imoen. If you can't be useful to me, get lost.~
@5219 = ~(Imoen sighs) Alright... it's better than nothing...~
@5220 = ~Oh but Imoen, why didn't you tell me you wanted it? Keep it, by all means...~
@5221 = ~I think I'm gonna kee-- huh...?~ 
@5222 = ~What didya say, that I should keep it??~
@5223 = ~Yes, please, I don't mind at all. You deserve it more than me anyway.~
@5224 = ~YES, keep it and leave me alone, I can't be bothered with your stupid games...~
@5225 = ~NO! Just give it back, dammit!!~
@5226 = ~I'd never say that because I know you wouldn't understand its power, you dumbhead!~
@5227 = ~I-- uh... (Imoen looks quite confused. She looks at you and then at the ring on her finger.)~
@5228 = ~(Finally she purses her lips and frowns) Just what's your problem, dontcha ever get mad or what!? I was just teasin' ya, I don't want the stupid ring! (She removes it from her finger and tosses it back at you.)~
@5229 = ~(She turns around and, huffing, walks away from you muttering to herself, leaving you standing there with the ring resting in the palm of your hand) Dumb head with <PRO_HISHER> dumb politeness an' dumb morals always spoils the fun, boring buffle headed <CHARNAME> won't let me tease <PRO_HIMHER>, what does <PRO_HESHE> think <PRO_HESHE> is, hmpf... <PRO_HESHE>'s always nice to people an' I just wanted a lil' fun, but noooo, <PRO_HESHE> says "keep the ring dear" an' ruins everything, dumb head with dumb politeness an'... ... ...~
@5230 = ~Hehe, alright Imoen, I get the idea... keep the ring, you have earned it.~
@5231 = ~Oh but Imoen, if you wanted the girdle, you just had to ask for it... please keep it, I'm sure you'll put it to good use.~
@5232 = ~I was only playin' a lil' joke on you, <CHARNAME>! Must ya always spoil all the fun!? Meh, don't know why I bother!~ 
@5233 = ~Yer as exciting as a rock... and have the same temper too... (she sighs) just how d'ya manage to put up with me like that!?~
@5234 = ~Oh well, here, take the damn girdle... (she unfastens the belt and hands it to you) I swear, trying to getcha mad is like talking to trees... which isn't bad the most of the time but it can be pretty unnerving!~
@5235 = ~But I don't give up so easily, hehe...~
@5236 = ~(You hurriedly open your money bag. Seeing again this dark purple substance, you take a bit of it in your hand. Strangely enough, these slimy, thin filaments smell of blueberry syrup...)~
@5237 = ~(You don't really understand what is happening, but you suspect *something* as you raise your head to look at Aerie again.)~
@5238 = ~(Imoen is standing beside her now. She has many things in her hands... that look somewhat familiar.)~
@5239 = ~Grargh! (You grunt, but can't quite remember why. Confused, you look at your hand to see it is holding that thing where you put the shiny things. However, they should be making the funny *clink* *clink* they use to do when you touch the bag, but, strangely, they aren't...)~
@5240 = ~(Fearing they might be dead, you manage to open the bag after the titanic effort of figuring out how to do it. The smell of yummy blueberries overwhelms you when you look inside.)~
@5241 = ~Wee! (Happy as only you can be, you take a bit of the dark purple substance in your hand and introduce it into your mouth, full of expectancy. You find out in delight that it tastes of delicious blueberry syrup as you look up to the pretty elven girl and the funny red-head, Imoen.)~
@5242 = ~(You beam a smile at them, your teeth stained in violet) Yummy!~
@5243 = ~(You couldn't care less about what they are talking about. You walk away from them so you won't get to hear any of their pointless small talk.)~
@5244 = ~(Just when you hear another soft giggle you get as far from them as you can. They keep talking, not noticing your attitude at all.)~
@5245 = ~(What you have heard already is more than enough. Do the wise thing and stop breaking their privacy.)~
@5246 = ~(Curiosity overpowers your common sense. You stay at the same distance to see if you can hear more.)~ 
@5247 = ~(You feel rather offended by the way Imoen has told your intimacies and secrets to Aerie) Imoen, I feel betrayed. How dare you tell her all of that?~
@5248 = ~(You feel so moved by her words that you must say something) Imoen, my love... you make me very happy too. I would die without you...~
@5249 = ~(You feel so aroused by her words that you must say something) Baby, you make me so hot when you talk like that... I love you so much, let's have some action together right now!~
@5250 = ~(Her words make your most private fantasies take control of your tongue) Heheh, Aerie, you only have to ask... a threesome with you two would be a dream come true, and I know Imoen wouldn't mind at all, she is into girls too...~
@5251 = ~... But-- but doesn't that hurt...?~
@5252 = ~Hurt...? (Imoen laughs softly) Oh Aerie, yer too innocent for the-- huh!? (You hadn't noticed they had changed positions. Imoen is now facing you directly... and *looking at you* directly) BUT WHAT THE...!?~
@5253 = ~(Aerie turns to find out what is wrong, and notices you looking at them. Your sixth sense for danger is booming inside your head already) Eeek!~
@5254 = ~<CHARNAME>!!! HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN THERE!?~
@5255 = ~(Aerie has blushed brightly already) <PRO_HESHE> has listened to everything we have said!~
@5256 = ~I can't believe you sneaked behind us to snoop in our *private* talk, you nosey-parker!!~
@5257 = ~<PRO_HESHE>... heard me asking you all of that...~
@5258 = ~You-- you heard me say... (Imoen's eyes burn. She is piercing you with her glare.)~
@5259 = ~Something to say before I WHACK YOUR HEAD!?~
@5260 = ~I, err... I love you?~
@5261 = ~But Imoen, I was just too curious about what you two talked about! Forgive me, please!~
@5262 = ~(Think quickly!) Yes: I don't regret at all what I just did, for hearing all you told her has made me immensely happy, and I don't care if now you kick my butt; it was worthwhile.~
@5263 = ~It is *I* who should "whack your head"! It seems you don't have any respect for our relationship, telling everything about it to Aerie!~
@5264 = ~Hahah, try if you want! Let's see who whacks who!~
@5265 = ~Wait, I, uh... I... LOOK THERE! (Run away before it's too late!)~
@5266 = ~(Your words only manage to enrage her even more. Moving EXTREMELY fast, she runs to you and jumps over you, with such wild, unnatural strength that she makes you fall to the ground. She doesn't care about where you might fall or who might be seeing you two.)~
@5267 = ~(It hurts to land on your back, especially since all of her weight is added to the fall. Imoen doesn't seem to care at all about that: she sits astride your hips and leans over you, probably ready to beat some common sense and manners into your head.)~
@5268 = ~(Then, she takes your nape with both hands, and forcefully pulls your head toward hers. She roughly links her lips to yours, intensely kissing your mouth with an ardor never experienced before. Her tongue fights to slip past your lips, achieving this goal almost immediately. Her agitated breath is all you can hear, her heart all you can feel, as you taste her sweet saliva in delight.)~
@5269 = ~(She stops the kiss as violently as she started it, releasing your head and sitting straight. Imoen looks into your eyes and smiles mischievously; then she stands up without a word, and goes to Aerie's side, who looks at her really confused.)~
@5270 = ~(She has left you there lying on the ground, still choking for breath... with a faint feeling of emptiness and longing for more, missing her presence both in your mouth and heart.)~
@5271 = ~(Imoen really knows how to make her punishments truly painful.)~ 
@5272 = ~(Both women jump when they hear your voice, and turn to look in your direction simultaneously.)~
@5273 = ~(The elven girl opens her eyes wide when she understands what has happened) Eeek!~
@5274 = ~Huh!? (As for Imoen, you can see the signs of anger building up on her face already...)~
@5275 = ~(Aerie, thinking of what you have just said, seems horrified) Eeek!!~
@5276 = ~(As for Imoen, she stares at you with flames in her wide-opened eyes) JUST WHAT DID YOU SAY!?~
@5277 = ~<PRO_HESHE> has heard everything we have been talking about!~
@5278 = ~HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN THERE, YOU PERVERTED BASTARD!?~
@5279 = ~Oh my OH MY! <PRO_HESHE> wants to lay me!!~
@5280 = ~No, no, you misunderstood, not you; BOTH of you at the same time, which is different!!~
@5281 = ~OH come on girls, you know I was joking! Geez, you two go mad too easily...~
@5282 = ~Don't act innocent like that, I know you'd love to join my games with Imoen!~
@5283 = ~Please, please forgive my thoughtless words... I don't know why I said that, please forgive me...~
@5284 = ~Uh-oh... (This is getting very dangerous. You didn't think they'd take it like this... running is a wise option!)~
@5285 = ~EEK!!~
@5286 = ~you... you...! (Aerie is at a loss of words.)~
@5287 = ~NOT SO FAST!!~
@5288 = ~(Imoen is staring at you. Her eyes burn as she virtually obliterates you with her gaze. Nothing good can come out of this.)~
@5289 = ~(Without any other word, and moving EXTREMELY fast, she runs to you and jumps over you with such wild, unnatural strength that she makes you fall to the ground. She doesn't care about where you might fall or who might be seeing you two.)~
@5290 = ~(Imoen seems to know that sometimes you don't think before talking. And she really knows how to make her punishments truly painful.)~
@5291 = ~(From your position you can see a troubled Aerie whisper to her) Umm, Imoen... why did he say that? Why did he say that "you are into girls"??~
@5292 = ~(Imoen glances nervously at the elf, and laughs. You recognize a forced laugh when you hear it) 'Cause he's a pervert that's why...! He's too dumb sometimes to see what should and shouldn't be said.~
@5293 = ~(Aerie doesn't seem very satisfied by Imoen's reply, but she decides to leave the topic aside for now and keep silent, still looking at her suspiciously. She knows Imoen will tell her sooner or later, anyway.)~
@5294 = ~(With a last assassin glare at you, your loved one takes Aerie's arm and proceeds to ignore you completely. Looks like she isn't done punishing you...)~
@5295 = ~If that is so, then leave at once. I won't have a cheap thief with no morals in my group. Go away, now.~
@5296 = ~You're just too STUPID to understand those around you, aren't you? You can't see further than your hands and that "kai" you use, everything else means nothing but "things to kill" and "things that bleed".~
@5297 = ~(She raises an eyebrow at your sudden change of mind, but ends shrugging. She seems relieved and disappointed at the same time) Whatever...~
@5298 = ~Actually, don't mind me at all. We can talk about it later...~
@5299 = ~Hmm, why do you ask? You seem too eager to know that...~
@5300 = ~Eh...? No, nothing, just curious, that's all... only that happened, huh?~
@5301 = ~Yes, nothing more.~
@5302 = ~You are lying... you want to know about something, I read it in your eyes.~
@5303 = ~Hmmm... is something troubling you, Imoen?~
@5304 = ~Alright, you got me there... after kissing we undressed each other and had non-stop sex!~
@5305 = ~That's why I'm asking, you DOPE! If I ask it's 'cause I wanna know something, dontcha think!?~
@5306 = ~And now you avoid my question acting upset. What is troubling you, Imoen?~
@5307 = ~You have a point there... no, nothing more happened.~
@5308 = ~Very well, if you want to know so bad... after kissing, we tore each other's clothes off and had sex until the dream ended!~
@5309 = ~(Imoen rolls her eyes) Fine, alright, yer too smart for me, there's something troubling me, sure...~
@5310 = ~It troubles me that *stupid <CHARNAME> won't answer the stupid question*, THAT's what's troubling me!!~
@5311 = ~Hey no need to get upset, heh... no, nothing more happened.~
@5312 = ~Hmpf... don't insult me for worrying about you, Imoen. If you really want to know, no, nothing happened.~
@5313 = ~Imoen, *please*! I am very serious, I only want to know what is troubling you, it's that simple... you have me worried.~
@5314 = ~Hmm, maybe we should leave it for later, when you calm down a little.~
@5315 = ~Just-- just why wontcha drop that off!? There's nothing troubling me, nothing!~
@5316 = ~Ya think yer too smart huh!? I don't hide a thing from you, leave me to go, I don't need yer stupid worry, leave me alone!~
@5317 = ~(She steps away from you so you won't keep bothering her, making clear she is very upset. Too upset indeed. You know there is something in Imoen's mind that worries her, although she doesn't seem prepared to share it just now.)~
@5318 = ~(You know Imoen well enough to be sure that she will, in due time. And wise enough to know that she wouldn't appreciate it if you pressed her further.)~
@5319 = ~Just why are you so insistent? I think you want to know about something in particular, I read it in your eyes.~
@5320 = ~No, no, now you will tell me why you wanted to know precisely *that*. Please, Imoen, I want to know what is troubling you, it's that simple... you have me worried.~
@5321 = ~<CHARNAME>, I...~ [MRImRom1]
@5322 = ~Sorry for yellin' at ya. You were just trying to be kind and show some concern an' all... an' that's very sweet of you, heheh...~
@5323 = ~It's just that... I try to keep certain things out of my mind, y'know...? And you... you almost make me...~
@5324 = ~Oh forget about it. I have other things to worry about right now, like, heh... just *why* you took so much time coming to rescue me!?~
@5325 = ~<CHARNAME>, I...~
@5326 = ~Well, I-- I must do something about it. If you have some minutes to spare...~
@5327 = ~There... there's something that troubles me indeed, it's obsessing me... I just couldn't find the way to tell ya...~
@5328 = ~But-- but I must do something 'bout it, or I'll go mad. There's something I omitted when talking about the torture...~
@5329 = ~But Imoen, I was only--~
@5330 = ~Yeah, yeah shake your tit--~
@5331 = ~The cat is in the ceiling and--~
@5332 = ~Admit it whore you want to--~
@5333 = ~I LOVE YOU IMOEN AND I WANT TO--~
@5334 = ~I wanna go to Baator some d--~
@5335 = ~Let's just say that... with all the torture and pain that I went through...~
@5336 = ~(Imoen rolls her eyes, tapping her foot impatiently) And I think yer too dumb for your own good. Stop wasting time talkin' to me and stake the damn coffin, you dumb ass! You know, take this pointy wooden thing, and plunge it through her ravenous heart so I can finally have my bloody soul back!!~
@5337 = ~(Once she has said this, Imoen notices she has been a little harsh on you. She seems about to apologize, but at the last moment she just looks away and huffs.)~
@5338 = ~I was only joking, Imoen. You are right after all... we just can't be together.~
@5339 = ~Imoen, I love you, and nothing you can say or do will change that.~
@5340 = ~Forget about it. I find you weaker with every word you say; you are just a whore with which I did what I pleased, and nothing more.~
@5341 = ~(You become completely serious now, you can't risk losing her) Listen to me Imoen, please. I am very worried about losing you. You're the happiness and joy in my life; you're the only thing I can think about lately. Losing you would be... worse than losing my soul. I think I could live without my soul, but I can't live without you...~
@5342 = ~Whoa...~
@5343 = ~Ya came all the way here *all alone*? I knew ya were a "tough-to-kill-<PRO_GIRLBOY> ", but, heh... ya really have some guts.~
@5344 = ~I've always been a loner. You know that, everyone that has met me knows that.~
@5345 = ~No one wants to join a Bhaalspawn in <PRO_HISHER> turbulent journey, Imoen...~
@5346 = ~I will not risk the lives of others in my own mission... only I must carry the burden of my accursed soul.~
@5347 = ~Yes, I killed everyone in my way. And you can't ask "friend or foe" to someone that is already dead...~
@5348 = ~There is power in my path, and I want it all for MYSELF!~
@5349 = ~(You shrug) I didn't really feel like having a party following me, that's all.~
@5350 = ~Yes, and I expect you to keep quiet. Otherwise, you'll force me to leave you here.~
@5351 = ~(Imoen purses her lips with disgust, although she already knew how you like things) sorry, <CHARNAME>. No words from me, I promise.~
@5352 = ~Oh...~
@5353 = ~Hahah, you greedy bastard (she winks at you) wontcha spare a bit of it for your cute childhood friend?~
@5354 = ~You-- you'll keep me with ya, right...? At least 'til we go outta here... please?~
@5355 = ~So long as you stay in my shadow, you can follow me wherever you want.~
@5356 = ~Oh but of course! I meant "You and Myself". I'd never consider leaving you behind me, Imoen.~
@5357 = ~I don't know. I haven't decided yet. Let's go on together... for now.~
@5358 = ~(Imoen sighs) I guess that's better than nothing...~
@5359 = ~(Imoen smiles, although you can still see some kind of disgust in her expression) That's good to hear. Although I'd like ya to be a little less obsessed with the "all the power" thing.~
@5360 = ~(She sighs) let's get outta here then... it's no wonder why Minsc and Jaheira aren't with ya by now.~
@5361 = ~(Imoen jumps back) Whoa easy there! C'mon, I'll help ya, no need to get grumpy... I'll stay out of your way, alright? I'll be like a shadow, no talking at all, nope...~
@5362 = ~Give me a chance... I-- I don't want to be alone here.~
@5363 = ~Hah, you'n'your jokes. Well, I *prefer* to believe it's a joke, so just don't tell me what you've really been doin'.~
@5364 = ~(Imoen smiles, looking at you with affection in her eyes) Well, ya can share your burden with me anytime, y'know that. Your mission is my mission... it's not like I have a choice really, heheh. I'm with ya to the end.~
@5365 = ~I... I always liked to think we were kind of special, <CHARNAME>... y'know, like there's a bond 'tween us both. Now we know what it is...~
@5366 = ~Although Minsc, Dynaheir, Khalid and Jaheira... well, they were nice people. But I guess we shouldn't have involved any of them in this... it should've stayed just you'n'me. Too many deaths already...~
@5367 = ~Uh, sorry, I'm goin' bleak again. Let's just go on... <CHARNAME> and Imoen against the odds like in the old times, hehe. Although... I'll miss Boo all the same.~
@5368 = ~But... I've never really wondered why I'm different to ya. I... I always liked to think we were kind of special, y'know, like there's a bond 'tween us both. Now we know what it is... (She sadly shakes her head.)~
@5369 = ~We left them there to find their way out by themselves, remember? We had more chances if we split up... although I never saw them again.~
@5370 = ~We left them there to rot. We didn't need them.~
@5371 = ~You know I'm a lonely person... we went separate ways as soon as we were out of there.~
@5372 = ~I'm sorry but... they died.~
@5373 = ~I had to kill them. They were too annoying.~
@5374 = ~It's not the first of our worries right now... we should be moving already.~
@5375 = ~Hey-hey, not so fast... *you* left them there to rot. I gave Jaheira the key to her cage when ya weren't lookin' and told Minsc before leaving that Boo was stupid and Dynaheir deserved to die so he'd go mad and crushed his cell by himself.~
@5376 = ~I... I was too scared to do anything more for them. I wish I could have... they were our friends, <CHARNAME>. Mine, at least...~
@5377 = ~(Imoen sighs) Oh well... I'll miss Boo the most. Let's get outta here...~
@5378 = ~Oh... a true shame. I... I was too scared to do anything more for them. I wish I could have... they were our friends, <CHARNAME>. Mine, at least...~
@5379 = ~(Imoen sighs) Oh well... I'll miss Boo the most. Let's get outta this place, I'm getting sick just standing here...~
@5380 = ~Although Minsc, Dynaheir, Khalid and Jaheira... well, they were nice people. But I guess we shouldn't have involved any of them in this... it should've stayed just you'n'me. Too many deaths already...~
@5381 = ~Uh, sorry, I'm goin' bleak again. Let's just go on... <CHARNAME> and Imoen against the odds like in the old times, hehe. Although... I'll miss Boo all the same.~
@5382 = ~Hey, where's Minsc? And Jaheira? I thought they had made it out of that dungeon we were in...~
@5383 = ~I guess so... I wouldn't, that's for sure, hehe! (She winks at you) but I'm sure there's people crazy enough for it, y'know, like Minsc or Dynaheir or Khalid...~
@5384 = ~Yer a queer fellow, that's what ye are (she winks at you) at least ya keep *me* around. I hope that won't change anytime soon... I-- I wouldn't want to be stuck in this horrible place all alone.~
@5385 = ~Minsc and Jaheira would've come in handy here... (Imoen sighs) oh well. I'm only surprised they stayed with us for so long, given your tendency to push everyone away from ya.~
@5386 = ~Be quiet, girl! So long as you keep silent, I will tolerate you.~
@5387 = ~I said the power is MINE!! GO AWAY!!~
@5388 = ~There's... nothing to talk about, <CHARNAME>...~
@5389 = ~Stop lying to yourself, Imoen! We must do something about it, dammit!~
@5390 = ~Very well. Tell me that you don't love me, and I will forget about that thing which "didn't happen".~
@5391 = ~(Imoen knits her brows slightly, drawing tiny creases on her forehead) Hey, if you're gonna get aggressive about this, better if we just forget about it, alright?~
@5392 = ~But it's all *your* fault! You seduced me with your impressive looks, your astounding intelligence and your charming personality!~
@5393 = ~No, no Imoen, don't take me the wrong way... it's only that it pains me so much to see us like this, we must talk about what *is* happening, please...~
@5394 = ~No! I love you Imoen, I love your every thought, your voice, every one of your words and gestures...~
@5395 = ~That I don't get aggressive?? Fuck you, Imoen!~
@5396 = ~Fine, well, whatever. Believe what you want, talking some sense into you is like saying "Hey Minsc, did you know Boo can't really talk?"... useless AND *dangerous*.~
@5397 = ~Fine, fine... look Imoen, it doesn't matter who seduced who. If we don't talk of what is happening between us both, I think I'll go insane.~
@5398 = ~Yes, YES I did, I only wanted to have my way with you, and now I've done it you are nothing but another harlot I have spent a night with.~
@5399 = ~Yes, YES I did, I only wanted a taste of you, and now I've had it you are nothing but another wench in my account.~
@5400 = ~We *both* win, <CHARNAME>...~
@5401 = ~(Her blush goes to crimson in seconds. Her eyes are opened wide, and stares at you with despising and anger.)~
@5402 = ~I-- I KNEW IT!! You rotten BASTARD, you used me, you just wanted to get inside me and now you toss me aside!!~
@5403 = ~I-- I KNEW IT!! You nymphomaniac gutter SLUT, you used me, you just wanted to spread my legs before you and now you toss me aside!!~
@5404 = ~(Imoen seems about to leap at you and attack you, such is the hatred she is feeling now) I would... I would have...!~
@5405 = ~BASTARD!!~
@5406 = ~You DIRTY WHORE!!~
@5407 = ~(With this, she turns from you and runs away. With all of her equipment, you notice.)~
@5408 = ~(Your words strike Imoen's face like a rough blow to her cheek. She looks at you blankly; her knees buckle and she slowly staggers backwards.)~
@5409 = ~(As your cruelty echoes inside her head, her legs fail her and she is forced to sit on the ground. The rain that suddenly has started to fall saturates her clothes and hair, but she doesn't seem to care about her surroundings anymore.)~ [NOSOUNMR]
@5410 = ~I... I... (Imoen stares at the floor, but her thoughts are much farther than that. You have managed to shatter to smithereens all of the walls and barriers she had created to sink those memories into the deepest corner of her mind. And now they are returning to her... with full force.)~
@5411 = ~(As the rain soaks through her clothes, she begins to shiver more and more wildly. Probably not only from the cold ambiance but from your even colder words. Perhaps you have gone too far...)~
@5412 = ~(You knew she was too weak. She has proven to you that she is not worthy of your attention; you leave her there to rot.)~
@5413 = ~(You didn't want to be that cruel. It slipped out of your mouth without control, and now you regret it. You approach to her) Imoen...? I'm very sorry...~
@5414 = ~(Although it was a little too much, you are not going to apologise. You get closer to her to make her stand up) Move out girl, don't be so weak and get over yourself.~
@5415 = ~(She is a perfect target now, helpless and weak as you like them. You have always wanted to rape Imoen; now, away from anyone who might hear, is your opportunity.)~
@5416 = ~(She is a perfect target now, helpless and weak as you like them. You have always wanted to force Imoen into sex with you; now, away from anyone who might hear, is your opportunity.)~
@5417 = ~(Imoen doesn't move at all as you approach her with lustful eyes. You see her entire body tremble, her hair falling over her face obscuring your view of her expression. You lick your lips in anticipation.)~
@5418 = ~(Imoen doesn't move at all as you approach her with the intention of lifting her from the ground. You see her entire body tremble, her hair falling over her face obscuring your view of her expression; it is a truly pathetic sight.)~
@5419 = ~(Imoen doesn't move at all as you approach her with the intention of apologizing. You see her entire body tremble, her hair falling over her face obscuring your view of her expression; she looks like a shadow of the person she once was.)~
@5420 = ~(Imoen doesn't move at all; you see her entire body tremble, her hair falling over her face, obscuring your view of her expression. It's such a pathetic sight that you turn your back to her, leaving her there sitting on the swamped terrain.)~
@5421 = ~(As you begin to move away from her, you feel movement behind you. There is a hand in your shoulder now; Imoen's hand, probably. Extremely irritated, you turn to tell her to stay there and never bother you again.)~
@5422 = ~(You begin to talk, but no words can come out of your mouth. As soon as you are facing her you feel a piercing pain in your throat, and your lungs refuse to take in air anymore. Something is flooding your mouth. It tastes of blood.)~
@5423 = ~(The pain is overwhelming as you look down to your neck to see what is causing such an intense torture. There is the hilt of a dagger protruding out of your skin, right between the joints of your armour. In your confused state, you realize it is still in the grasp of a pale hand. It is Imoen's hand.)~
@5424 = ~(The pain is overwhelming as you look down to your neck to see what is causing such an intense torture. There is the hilt of a dagger protruding out of your skin; blood is damping your clothes. Grasping the dagger there is a pale hand. It is Imoen's hand.)~
@5425 = ~(As your vision blurs and your legs grow weaker, you manage to see Imoen's face. She is looking at you, without hatred or anger. There is no emotion in her features; she simply stares at you, her gaze blank, her body motionless.)~
@5426 = ~(Her fingers seem to spend an eternity in releasing the dagger one by one, leaving it deep inside your throat. The last image you see is of her looking at the blood that stains her hand as it fades with the falling rain. The random reminiscence of her giggling lightheartedly at one of your jokes, some place inside of Candlekeep, accompanies you as fall into darkness... forever.)~
@5427 = ~(You approach her, and put a hand on her shoulder. Then, you feel a piercing pain in your throat. You try to talk, but you can utter no word. Your lungs refuse to take in air anymore. Something is flooding your mouth. It tastes of blood.)~
@5428 = ~Admit it, you were just trying to get in my panties the whole time! All that kindness, you and your naughty incestuous thoughts, plotting to see me naked and gasping before you!~
@5429 = ~(You can't resist it, you love to annoy her) Frankly, Imoen, once with you was more than enough!~
@5430 = ~(You can't resist the urge of telling her the truth) Frankly, Imoen, I have regrets about that... once with you was more than enough.~
@5431 = ~Heh heh... our first quarrel and we're not even together... *yet*! (Wink at her.)~
@5432 = ~All those feelings were spontaneous, Imoen... I plotted nothing. What happened in the woods was only what had to happen sooner or later, I am sure about it.~
@5433 = ~So what if it's like that, Imoen!? I admit it, I've always wanted you and me to be together and love each other. You can't blame me for that...~
@5434 = ~You think too much of yourself, Imoen! Look, let's forget about it. Friends?~
@5435 = ~You think too much of yourself, Imoen! Look, let's forget about it. Friends?~
@5436 = ~I ADMIT IT IMOEN! I only wanted to have my way with you, and now that I've done it you are nothing but another harlot I have spent a night with.~
@5437 = ~I ADMIT IT IMOEN! I only wanted a taste of you, and now that I've had it you are nothing but another wench in my account.~
@5438 = ~That you... (Imoen looks surprised. She didn't expect you would say something like that. Her "playful" annoyance is slowly turning into a real one.)~
@5439 = ~Does that mean that you listened to me only in the hopes of *having your way with me*!?~
@5440 = ~Yes! It was the only way to get you on your back!~
@5441 = ~No, Imoen, of course not. I listened to you because I love you more than my own life. I'd die for you, there are no words to describe how I've felt towards you all these years...~
@5442 = ~(Puzzlement and embarrassment clearly show on her face now) You... you've loved me all these years...? Does that mean that... even-- even in Candlekeep...?~
@5443 = ~Hopelessly in love. From the first time I saw you and you told me "Heya, who are you? I'm Imoen"...~
@5444 = ~It... grew gradually once we left there. I longed for your love already when we were captured by Irenicus' minions, and having you torn away from me and carried off to Spellhold was the most horrible torture I've had to endure in my whole life...~
@5445 = ~It began when we were in Irenicus' dungeon, ever since you got me out of my cell... I was so worried about you, I couldn't get you out of my mind, especially after the dreams...~
@5446 = ~Sorry, I meant since that morning in the elven encampment... it feels to me like an eternity since I last touched your lips...~
@5447 = ~Oh...~
@5448 = ~I... I don't know what to say, I... (Imoen looks troubled and confused. She would have never imagined you longed for her heart in such way; and you would like to think she doesn't want to admit she feels the same way towards you now.)~
@5449 = ~(She speaks in a whisper) <CHARNAME>...~
@5450 = ~Hmpf, well I'm not that sure! Two bhaalspawn aren't supposed to do what we did, <CHARNAME>! It's plainly wrong, it's disgusting!~
@5451 = ~We're siblings dammit! We committed incest, *INCEST*!!~
@5452 = ~(Imoen's cheeks are growing red) That *I* seduced you!? Who was here the "I-understand-ya-Imoen" <PRO_GIRLBOY>? Who understood my every whine, and put up with all of my practical jokes?~
@5453 = ~Who chased me through the forest soaked in freezing water to leap over me at the first opportunity, and who pinned me to the ground and pushed <PRO_HISHER> tongue inside my mouth without any warning!?~
@5454 = ~It's *YOU* who's been trying to seduce me all this time!!~
@5455 = ~Hah, I think you're too big headed for me indeed, Imoen! Besides, WHO of the two of us said "I'll agree to whatever you decide" and who said "LET'S-FORGET-ABOUT-EVERYTHING" and "I-CAN'T-DENY-IT-ANYMORE", huh!?~
@5456 = ~I-- uh... (Imoen's face turns bright red. She is at a loss of words, but only for a moment. Immediately, she is yelling at you) You-- you said that after telling me I was the only thing for you in the world!! Any foolish girl like MYSELF would fall for that, ANY!~
@5457 = ~(Imoen huffs. She fights it, she *really* fights it, but can't prevent a smile from forming on her lips) You think yer funny dontcha?~
@5458 = ~Look <CHARNAME>, I know what yer tryin' to do, but I won't just laugh and say "yer right, let's make love like there's no tomorrow"... this is a very serious issue.~
@5459 = ~What we did was wrong. It-- it was a huge mistake, the biggest in our lives after leaving Candlekeep. We should have stayed like friends, we crossed a dangerous line, <CHARNAME>...~
@5460 = ~I mean... we're bhaalspawn. We're siblings... you know how it's called what we did, right? It's *incest*. We committed INCEST, <CHARNAME>!~
@5461 = ~Imoen, you can say it was incest if you want, I can even agree with you on that. But it was no mistake, we did nothing wrong... if love is "something wrong", then... I can't imagine what can be right.~
@5462 = ~But... I love you Imoen!~
@5463 = ~Oh, "Incest" is such a strong word... let's call it "deep relationship among siblings", eh? (chuckle.)~
@5464 = ~Maybe... maybe you are right, Imoen. We are bhaalspawn... your words have wisdom. Let us stay friends...~
@5465 = ~WHAT!? (Imoen's eyes widen until they look as big as saucers. It seems now you have managed to hurt her pride...) Well it didn't seem that way with all of your moans and gasps and sighs! We did it on an' on 'til we fell asleep exhausted, I'm not going to believe--~
@5466 = ~(Imoen stops talking and bites her lower lip in embarrassment what she hears herself. If there was a bit of her blood that wasn't concentrated in her face yet, now it is... especially when she notices your playful smile.)~
@5467 = ~(Imoen stops talking and bites her lower lip in embarrassment what she hears herself. If there was a bit of her blood that wasn't concentrated in her face yet, now it is...)~
@5468 = ~Ya think yer funny dontcha!? Ya must find it a helluva lotta hilarious to lose my love, ya sure do!~
@5469 = ~Ah, so you finally admit that you love me!~
@5470 = ~No, no Imoen! It was only a joke, look I... I couldn't live without you... I always wanted this to happen, Imoen...~
@5471 = ~Heheh, well just look at ourselves. We are having our first quarrel, and we are not even together... YET.~
@5472 = ~What!? N-- no, uh, I-- I mean, yeah, but...~
@5473 = ~(She finally said it. She really loves you, there is nothing more to be said: interrupting her, you take her in your arms and kiss her lips with all of your passion.)~
@5474 = ~(Just let her continue while you amusedly look at her embarrassment.)~
@5475 = ~(Imoen's face turns somber. For some reason, what you just said has managed to sadden her) <CHARNAME>...~
@5476 = ~(Before she can say another thing, and while she isn't expecting it, you slip your arms around her figure and caress her lips with yours, trying to tell her without words how much you love her.)~
@5477 = ~(Although her muscles tensed when she first felt you around her, soon she is kissing you back, giving in to her yearning as she wraps her arms around your neck and her tongue shyly tries to slips past your lips.)~
@5478 = ~(She finds her own hand going down your chest, past your stomach and with the intention of going further. And when she realizes what she is doing, her eyes pop open, you feel her tongue hurriedly retreat to her mouth, her fingers leave your hair, her skin tears away from yours... she pushes you back with desperation, even roughly.)~
@5479 = ~(She finds her own hand resting on your left breast, squeezing it gently as the other goes down your back, around your waist and with the intention of going further. And when she realizes what she is doing, her eyes pop open, you feel her tongue hurriedly retreat to her mouth, her fingers stop their caresses, her skin tears away from yours... she pushes you back with desperation, even roughly.)~
@5480 = ~(Her lips tremble, she seems horrified. Or, more precisely... terrified) No, no <CHARNAME>, NO!!  No matter how good it feels it's still wrong, WRONG!! I'm not going to fall into incest, I'm not!~
@5481 = ~Look, I love you, alright? I can't deny it, I-- I really feel that way... but it doesn't matter! I can forget about that, I can overcome it, I can an' I *will*! Incest among bhaalspawn is far out of bounds, we made a *huge* mistake!~
@5482 = ~(Imoen blinks twice and recoils, surprised by your request) I, uh... (She looks at you, but intentionally avoids your gaze as she bites her lower lip. She appears to be having difficulties...)~
@5483 = ~I... I don't, err... (the words seem to refuse to come out of her mouth. Imoen closes her eyes, ordering her thoughts. After taking a deep breath, she opens them again with determination) I... I don't love you.~
@5484 = ~(Her voice is dry, doubtful but insistent at the same time) Let's... f-- forget about it. There's... nothing between you and me.~
@5485 = ~(Although shocked, you told her that you would not bother her again if she said it) I... see. Very well then... let's be friends and nothing more, Imoen.~
@5486 = ~(She lies. She couldn't look into your eyes, she almost couldn't utter it at all) Imoen... now please look into my eyes, and repeat it... only then shall I believe you.~
@5487 = ~You bitch! Better that way, because I only wanted to have my way with you, and now that I've done it you are nothing but another harlot I have spent a night with!~
@5488 = ~You bitch! Better that way, because I only wanted a taste of you, and now that I've had it you are nothing but another wench in my account!~
@5489 = ~Then forget about me, Imoen. Find yourself a duergar like the one that screwed your virginity out of you.~
@5490 = ~You... you said you'd leave me in peace! (Imoen knits her brows, drawing tiny creases on her forehead) If you're gonna get aggressive about it, then you can go on forgetting all of this for real, alright?~
@5491 = ~I... (Imoen didn't really expect you would respect her words. She nods once, a slight, very sad smile on her lips, and a heavy burden seems to have been removed from her back all of sudden) Thanks for keeping up to your word, <CHARNAME>...~
@5492 = ~You... you said you'd leave me in peace! (Imoen knits her brows, drawing tiny creases on her forehead; her eyes linger for a very brief moment on yours, but look away immediately) Whatcha need, hearing it from the town criers, want me to write it with huge letters on a wall!?~
@5493 = ~(She sounds annoyed, her gaze goes everywhere in her surroundings, but keeps avoiding your pupils) "Look into my eyes", "Look into my eyes", pfft... whatcha think, that I can't do it? You silly jerk, of course I can do it... why couldn't I? There's nothing in your eyes that isn't already in your ugly face!~
@5494 = ~What's this obsession about eyes anyway? Ya have some fetish with them, I'm sure, another reason in my favor! Ya'll end up pokin' my eyes out an' playing with them like they were marbles! No, no way I'm looking at your perverted eyes, I won't be doin' it, I won't...~
@5495 = ~(Imoen stops talking, realizing how silly she sounds. She lowers her head and closes her eyes, sighing deeply. You notice her breath trembles as she exhales) Then let's get done with it, alright? (Her eyelashes flash up, and she drills her resolute gaze into your irises.)~
@5496 = ~<CHARNAME>, I don't love you. I do not love you, I've never loved you and never will, and... and you are a fool for... for believing that... that I'd... th-- that I would-- (Her voice breaks, her gaze can no longer meet yours and goes to the ground in frustration. Annoyance, mixed with desperation, builds up inside her until she can't hold it anymore.)~
@5497 = ~I... I don't, err... (the words seem to refuse to come out of her mouth. Imoen closes her eyes, ordering her thoughts. After taking a deep breath, she opens them again with determination... and then they meet yours.)~
@5498 = ~I d-- don't... I... (She tries, but can't go on. She witnesses the hope, the love and frankness that radiate from the depths of your crystalline eyes. She sees your sincere expression and feels your longing for her warmth, your concern for her worries, your yearning for her love... and her will breaks.)~
@5499 = ~Just... just why do you do this to me!? (Her eyes are beginning to get teary) Why can't you hate me, why won't you leave me alone and find yourself someone better than me!? Don't you see that I don't want this...? I... I never wanted this to happen, I never wanted to feel like this...~
@5500 = ~It's... it's not fair... I don't deserve this, it's not fair... it's not fair, <CHARNAME>!~
@5501 = ~You love me! My precious Imoen, joy overwhelms my senses... (take her hand) this is a blissful dream come true!~
@5502 = ~You love me! This is such a great moment... (take her hand) I am so happy, Imoen!~
@5503 = ~A... mistake? Is the happiness I felt that morning in the woods a mistake, Imoen...? Is this incredible bond we share a simple error? I don't think so...~
@5504 = ~I would never think the happiness I feel when you say "I love you" is a mistake, Imoen...~
@5505 = ~Incest? Imoen, you are wrong. We are bhaalspawn, yes; however, you don't seem to know the way Bhaal planted his seeds.~
@5506 = ~Ar'ya *daft* or something, haventcha heard me yet!? That doesn't matter, <CHARNAME>! We can live without it. *I* can, and yer much stronger than me. I'm not going to get myself involved in an incestuous relationship just for a silly, stupid, pointless... ridiculous... feeling...~
@5507 = ~Let's... let's forget about it... let's be friends... we can overcome it, just ignore it until it disappears... I know it will, <PRO_BROTHERSISTER>.~
@5508 = ~(Imoen steps away from you. She can't hide her tears as she leaves your side... seemingly forever.)~
@5509 = ~(Imoen raises her voice, her frustration increasing as she sees you are making this much more difficult for her than she had expected) It is! It's a mistake, it's wrong to feel so happy about it, <CHARNAME>!~
@5510 = ~<CHARNAME>!! Are you *daft* or something, haventcha heard me yet!? It doesn't matter! How happy it makes you or me doesn't change a thing!~
@5511 = ~(Imoen can hardly restrain herself from shouting at you, her frustration increasing as she sees you are making this much more difficult for her than she first thought.)~
@5512 = ~Can't you see we're committing *INCEST*!? It's... it's so gross!~
@5513 = ~It makes you happy. It makes me happy. I don't get your point, Imoen.~
@5514 = ~Our love brings happiness to us both... I simply can't understand why you care so much about this "incest" issue.~
@5515 = ~But *why* is it gross, Imoen? Just because of some pointless prejudices. We're not even siblings anyway, we were just raised like that.~
@5516 = ~That we both are bhaalspawn doesn't mean that I am your <PRO_BROTHERSISTER>... let me explain to you...~
@5517 = ~It's... it's gross 'cause I've always felt like a little sister to you, you were someone I could care for and worry about, and admire, and be friends with but... but not, y-- y'know...~
@5518 = ~But, but don't you see that we're not supposed to feel like this for each other!? It's simply not right!! I've always felt like a little sister to you, you were someone I could care for and worry about, and admire, and be friends with but... but not, y-- y'know...~
@5519 = ~I... never ever thought that I'd... I'd fall in love with you... (Imoen looks lost in her thoughts. Suddenly she reacts and snaps back to reality, preventing herself from following this thread of thought.)~
@5520 = ~But that doesn't change the fact that we are bhaalspawn, <CHARNAME>! And that's an even *worse* type of incest!~
@5521 = ~It scares me... what if the very *gods* disapprove of such a relationship? What if our blood makes us go insane, or, or become suicidal or whatever if we continue on this path!?~
@5522 = ~I... (Imoen blushes and opts to fall silent, noticing she is not making sense. She seems so desperate in her search for reasons to deny her feelings, she tries to use any possible argument.)~
@5523 = ~Imoen, you can't find a reason for us to not be together, simply because there isn't one... let us love each other, please...~
@5524 = ~You are right, the sky will crack open and the gods will come and burn us to ashes for our blasphemy (roll your eyes) They couldn't care less about us mortals, Imoen!~
@5525 = ~I am sure the slayer loves you as much as me, Imoen (Wink at her.)~
@5526 = ~Oh... oh my! You are right! We will burn in the nine hells, we must atone for our sins!~
@5527 = ~You are right after all, Imoen... we should just be friends. We have gone too far...~
@5528 = ~(Imoen just sighs, very deeply. She nods once, a slight, very sad smile on her lips, and a heavy burden seems to have been removed from her back all of sudden.)~
@5529 = ~Thank you, <CHARNAME>... thank you... (She simply hugs you, and leaves your side. You perceive a very slight sniffling before she is out of your hearing range...)~
@5530 = ~(She purses her lips; she doesn't seem pleased to hear you joke about such things right now.)~
@5531 = ~(She purses her lips; she doesn't seem so sure about that, since you are not only mortals, but bhaalspawn.)~
@5532 = ~(You won't keep torturing both of you with meaningless words. You tightly embrace her, to comfort both her aching heart and your own and tell her with your contact how much you need her.)~
@5533 = ~(Smiling, you approach her and gently lift her chin so she looks directly at you. Without a word, you slowly lean forward and softly, tenderly kiss her lips...)~
@5534 = ~(Smiling, you approach Imoen and kneel before her. You take her quivering hand and, kissing her fingers while staring into the sea of her eyes, you speak) Marry me, Imoen. Let's love each other forever to the end of time.~
@5535 = ~(Smiling, you approach her and gently take her chin, making her look at you. Without a word, you roughly slap her face with all of your strength in the hope of making her fall to the ground.)~
@5536 = ~You were just being a bitch that is! I only wanted to have my way with you anyway; now that I've done it you are nothing but another harlot I have spent a night with!~
@5537 = ~You were just being a bitch that is! I only wanted a taste of you anyway; now that I've had it you are nothing but another wench in my account!?~
@5538 = ~(Imoen's stark look unexpectedly breaks and a hint of a smirk plays across her face; she lowers her head as she slowly shakes it from side to side. She sniffles once, and her smile fades as she remembers why you have just told her that. She glances at you again.)~
@5539 = ~(Your completely unexpected blow connects with her left cheekbone, and Imoen drops to the ground uttering a quiet moan. Suddenly, it starts raining.)~
@5540 = ~(She lies on the ground, motionless. The rain that suddenly has started to fall saturates her clothes and hair.)~
@5541 = ~(As the water soaks through her attire, she begins to shiver more and more wildly, although she still seems to be unconscious. Perhaps you have gone too far...)~
@5542 = ~(You didn't want to be such a brute. You don't know what happened in your mind; You approach to her) Imoen...? I'm very sorry, please talk to me...~
@5543 = ~(She seems about to say something important, so you respect her turn to talk and let her finish.)~
@5544 = ~(She swallows heavily and sniffles once more) I was... trying... I just wanted... t-- to... (Imoen warily glances at you as coherent words refuse to come out of her shaking lips.)~
@5545 = ~(You keep waiting; she only needs time to order her thoughts.)~
@5546 = ~I, uh... I... (Imoen bites her lip once again; she seems about to ask you something, but decides not to do it at the last moment. She is cold, or it appears so from her uncontrollable trembling.)~
@5547 = ~(Pressing her is the last thing you want to do, so you keep waiting for her to calm down and finish her sentence.)~
@5548 = ~(She holds her left elbow with her right hand, and shifts her weight from one foot to the other, not knowing what to do. You can tell she feels embarrassed, as if waiting for something... and your inner self knows well what it is.)~
@5549 = ~(*Can't you see all she needs is a hug? Go embrace her, you idiot! You both will feel better.*)~
@5550 = ~(It might only be your imagination, but you recognize a voice from your childhood in it... maybe Gorion's, although it is not likely that Gorion would call you "idiot"...)~
@5551 = ~(Imoen is still uneasily looking at you... better do something already.)~
@5552 = ~(She holds her left elbow with her right hand, and shifts her weight from one foot to the other, not knowing what to do. You can tell she feels embarrassed, as if waiting for something... you don't understand what.)~
@5553 = ~(You feel a bump on the back of your head, as if someone has just slapped you, and suddenly you hear a subtle whisper in your ear, full of wisdom and love.)~
@5554 = ~(Imoen holds you so close to herself that breathing is becoming difficult, but it is still a very pleasant feeling. After a delicious moment of caressing her hair as she cries on you, you hear her whisper under her breath in faltering words between sob after sob.)~
@5555 = ~Forgive me... please... please forgive me... I was... so scared... forgive me... (She cuddles against you all she can, rubbing her nose against your skin) Forgive me...~
@5556 = ~(Smiling, you approach Imoen and kneel before her. You take her quivering hand and, kissing her fingers while staring into the sea of her eyes, you speak) Stay with me, Imoen. Let's love each other forever to the end of time.~
@5557 = ~(Just start kissing her in this ecstatic state.)~
@5558 = ~There's nothing to forgive, my love... nothing... (You feel your own tears wet your face as you start kissing her.)~
@5559 = ~(Continue caressing her, telling her to calm down, that you are there, that you love her...)~
@5560 = ~Forgive? I don't understand, what are you talking about?~
@5561 = ~(How have you come this far? You finally realize you don't want such a relationship, but you don't want to hurt Imoen either. You push her away very gently, but firmly.)~
@5562 = ~(Now is your chance to humiliate her: you roughly push her away) You whore, what do you think I am, a duergar like the one that took your virginity away?~
@5563 = ~(Imoen looks confused behind her tears when you push her away from you. She doesn't understand why she can't touch you anymore, until her gaze stops in your eyes...)~
@5564 = ~(What lies inside them is enough to tell her what is happening. Her mouth drops open, her lower lip trembling again as fear grows in her expression.)~
@5565 = ~No... no, don't do this to me...! (after giving in to her most intimate yearning, receiving this disappointment from you is like a slap to her fair cheek. There is nothing you can say now...)~
@5566 = ~No...! (She takes a few steps back from you, looking at you horrified. Then, covering her face in despair, she runs away while crying helplessly before you can do a thing.)~
@5567 = ~(Maybe it is better this way... there was no future for the two of you together.)~
@5568 = ~(It feels like an eternity as your mouths converge, until your lips finally are linked. At first she doesn't react, just standing motionless as you warmly stroke her lips with yours, infusing them with all the love and adoration you possess for her.)~ [MRImRom6]
@5569 = ~(Just when you think it might not be enough for her to respond to your caresses, you taste a salty substance on your upper lip... a tear. Imoen's tear...)~
@5570 = ~(And now you sense how her anguish grows, her shoulders tremble, her sniffles increase their frequency, until she can't restrain her weeping anymore. Her arms wrapping themselves around you, squeezing you desperately tight, she lets her sorrow flow unbridled as she quietly embraces you and bursts into tears.)~
@5571 = ~(Looking at you kissing her long, slender and agile fingers she can't help but smile as she wipes her nose with her free hand's sleeve) You... you silly... (She sniffles again, takes your hand and pulls you toward her, making you stand so you will be able to embrace her.)~
@5572 = ~(She lets you envelop her body with your arms, resting her head on your shoulder. You sense her anguish grow, her shoulders trembling in your embrace as she sniffles once and again, until she can't restrain her weeping anymore.)~
@5573 = ~(Her arms wrapping themselves around you, squeezing you desperately tight, she lets her sorrow flow unbridled as she quietly bursts into tears.)~
@5574 = ~(Tightening even more your embrace, you start to kiss her tears away like you did in her dreams, first her forehead, then her eyelids, her cheeks and nose...)~
@5575 = ~(You reach her lips, and for a moment everything stands still. Your foreheads united, your eyes closed, the only thing you can feel is how her quickened breath flows over your skin as it comes out of her half-open mouth. Time seems to stop as her trembling lips slowly, hesitantly move to meet yours.)~
@5576 = ~(Imoen just burrows herself further into your arms. She stops whispering, replacing her words with kisses... her eyes closed, she gives you a soft kiss on your neck, and goes up following your jaw line, placing another tender buss there. Then your chin is blessed by her gentle lips, and she opens her teary eyes to look into yours.)~
@5577 = ~(For a moment, everything stays still. The only thing you can feel is how her quickened breath strokes your skin as it comes out of her half-open mouth. She gathers the courage to move, and the dance of lights that her irises reflect is mesmerizing as her trembling lips slowly, hesitantly motion to meet yours.)~
@5578 = ~(With a final impulse born from her most intimate yearning, your mouths melt. Entangling her fingers in your hair, she continues to push you against her body, her other hand firmly, excruciatingly pulling your waist close. Her skin is a blanket that covers your entire being, her essence a gift from heavens that occupies all of your senses.)~
@5579 = ~(As her timid tongue shyly tries to slip past your lips it is as if nothing else exists, just you and her in an everlasting kiss: everything that surrounds you shrinks to nothingness... all of your worries disappear, to leave only human and <PRO_RACE> united as one. Just Imoen and <CHARNAME>.)~
@5580 = ~(As her timid tongue shyly tries to slip past your lips it is as if nothing else exists, just you and her in an everlasting kiss: everything that surrounds you shrinks to nothingness... all of your worries disappear, to leave only two humans united as one. Just Imoen and <CHARNAME>.)~
@5581 = ~(She can't restrain another sniffle, and slowly, painfully, you both come back to real world. Still embraced, she looks into your eyes, hers still tear-filled, with a look that speaks a thousand words, and without saying anything she rests her head on you...)~
@5582 = ~(... and begins to cry again. You feel her tremble in your arms, her sobs rising from the depths of her soul straight to your ears.)~
@5583 = ~(Kiss her head understandingly while tightening your embrace even more.)~
@5584 = ~Imoen...? Are you alright...? Did I do... something wrong...?~
@5585 = ~Oh, not again! What now??~
@5586 = ~<CHARNAME>!! How-- how can you joke about a thing like this, can't you see it's a very serious issue!? If that's how much you care about losing my love, then...~
@5587 = ~(The sadness in Imoen's eyes is heart-piercing) That doesn't matter, <CHARNAME>... it doesn't matter when it comes to beings like us.~
@5588 = ~Love... (Imoen looks away, her contrite expression such, that even the angels in the heavens would play a sad song upon their harps as tears stream downs their cheeks in her presence. Melancholy in her eyes, she holds her left elbow with her right hand and looks up at you again) How... how has it come to this, <CHARNAME>...?~
@5589 = ~D-- don't you see that we're not supposed to feel like this for each other!? It's simply not right!! I've always felt like a little sister to you, you were someone I could care for and worry about, and admire, and be friends with but... but not, y-- y'know...~
@5590 = ~(Her voice drops to a mere whisper) I never wanted something like this to happen... it's not fair... I didn't want to feel... to feel this for you...~
@5591 = ~I don't really remember where I read it. Don't worry about that, just know that it is true, I am positive.~
@5592 = ~(You see with satisfaction when you push her away that your words strike Imoen's teary face like a rough blow to her cheek. She looks at you blankly, her mouth open in disbelief; her knees buckle and she slowly staggers backwards.)~
@5593 = ~It doesn't really matter... our love is all that matters to me right now.~
@5594 = ~(This is a great chance to hurt and humiliate her) The duergar who screwed the virginity out of you told me, you filthy little whore!~
@5595 = ~(Imoen keeps silent, thinking about what you have just said. After a while she mutters to herself.)~
@5596 = ~(Finally she is at your mercy; now is your chance to hurt her) I am sure you felt much better when that duergar screwed the virginity out of you, you filthy little whore!~
@5597 = ~(Imoen huffs. She fights it, she *really* fights it, but can't prevent a smile from forming on her lips.)~
@5598 = ~(She eyes you from time to time, nervous, her breath erratic. She is scared. She Bites her lower lip again, and staring to the ground she finally whispers what she can't hold anymore... what is *really* tormenting her.)~
@5599 = ~What if... what if you hurt me...?~
@5600 = ~(You just smile, as you know there is nothing more to say now. Words can't express what only a tight embrace will make her understand.)~
@5601 = ~Hurt... you...? Why would I hurt you, when you are everything to me...? I'd die for you, let alone keep you from any harm...~
@5602 = ~That's it, fear for getting into a closer relationship? The entire incest thing... was just to avoid becoming emotionally dependant on me?~
@5603 = ~(Smile lovingly) If I ever hurt you, you have my permission to kick my butt a thousand times. I won't complain, honest!~
@5604 = ~Yes... yes I see what you mean, we won't be able to stay together... we should just be friends. We have gone too far...~
@5605 = ~Hurt you, bitch!? And what if I tell you that I only wanted to have my way with you, and now that I've done it you are nothing but another harlot I have spent a night with!?~
@5606 = ~Hurt you, bitch!? And what if I tell you that I only wanted a taste of you, and now that I've had it you are nothing but another wench in my account!?~
@5607 = ~Hurt you? Forget about me, you weak whore. Find yourself a duergar like the one that screwed your virginity out of you.~
@5608 = ~(Tears are beginning to well up in her eyes) I... I was just... (Imoen is trembling. Her contrite expression reflects her inner suffering as her look alternates from the ground to you.)~
@5609 = ~Forget about me, Imoen. Find yourself a duergar like the one that screwed your virginity out of you.~
@5610 = ~HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN THERE, YOU PERVERTED BITCH!?~
@5611 = ~Hmpf, you're too big headed for my taste. It's been a mistake, you win, let's be friends again.~
@5612 = ~(Hold her hand) Imoen... I'd have never expected we would come to this point... but since I had those dreams, every day I see you more like a woman, and less like my little sister...~
@5613 = ~(She seems about to say something important. You patiently wait to let her finish expressing her feelings when she is able to.)~
@5614 = ~You... you stole my heart when you opened yourself to me after rescuing you... I found that I felt much more than simple care for you, Imoen...~
@5615 = ~Don't be stupid, stop lying to yourself, Imoen!!~
@5616 = ~But... but *I* do love you, Imoen...!~
@5617 = ~Nothing more...? What were you expecting me to say?~
@5618 = ~Oh forget about it... ya were trying to tell me something, about your dreams...~
@5619 = ~So, um... tell me, how were those dreams ya mentioned? Me telling you weird things, huh? C'mon, you got me curious...~
@5620 = ~No, Imoen, first I need to know what is troubling you... share it with me, please, you will feel better whatever it is...~
@5621 = ~(Imoen purses her lips and looks away; she was expecting you to say this) Look <CHARNAME>, I... (She glances at you only to stare to the ground again, uneasily) I don't feel like talking about it right now, alright...?~
@5622 = ~I'd prefer to listen now... I'll... I'll tell ya whatever you want me to tell when I feel like it, I promise... I don't wanna talk about it just now, <CHARNAME>.~
@5623 = ~Tell me about yer dreams, c'mon... please... (She is pleading for it both with her eyes and voice. Talking with you seems to make her feel better...)~
@5624 = ~Is that so? In which way? Oh, wait a minute... *that* is what is troubling you, right?~
@5625 = ~I... (she looks up, and suddenly seems aware of her surroundings again) Eh...? N-- no, nothing, it was nothing, really! (She makes an effort to smile) 'nuff 'bout weird dreams already, we should be doin' some vampire hunting!~
@5626 = ~(Imoen nervously glances at you) I... look <CHARNAME>, I've told you that there's nothing to talk about! (You notice her hands are trembling, and her breath is quickened, as if it takes great effort to inhale.)~
@5627 = ~This-- this place is suffocating me already, let's get outta here...!~
@5628 = ~(Imoen stares at you incredulously until she sees a rat scurry into a nearby hole in the wall. A visible shiver runs through her body as she directs an icy glare at you, and then walks off in a huff.)~
@5629 = ~(Shrug) Alright, let's spend the night here.~
@5630 = ~(It feels like an eternity until you hold Imoen in your arms. Your gentle embrace is rewarded by the softness of her skin, the warmth of her quivering body. She simply lets you envelop her and hold her close, without moving at all.)~ [MRImRom6]
@5631 = ~(You sense her anguish grow, her shoulders trembling in your embrace as she sniffles once and again, until she can't restrain her weeping anymore. Her arms wrapping themselves around you, squeezing you desperately tight, she lets her sorrow flow unreigned as she quietly bursts into tears.)~
@5632 = ~Imoen, Icewind Dale II isn't from Bioware.~
@5633 = ~Aw, whatever!~
