15 Lines Of Dialogue

Rules: Share 15 or fewer lines of dialogue from an OC, ideally lines that capture the character/personality/vibe of the OC. Bonus points for just using the dialogue without other details about the scene, but you're free to include those as well!

Was tagged in this a while back by @ndostairlyrium! I'll try to do this for two characters.

Kyana Amell (Dragon Age)

“We’re already too late. Therefore, we keep moving, and I swear I will burn alive the next person who mentions looting. Am I clear?”

"Blast it."

“Shall I remind you where your armor came from?”

"I may need another bandage."

“I also cleaned it! Who do you think I am?”

“Well, I don’t use them. Do you not want them?”

“I. Am. Fine.”

“There’s nothing here. We should move on.”

"Pride tried to trick me, and failed. Sloth tried to cage me, and I tore its domain apart. Do you wish to be next?”

“Don’t be a fool. You worry too much, that’s all.”

“...See, that is where the illusion breaks: he would never say that.”

“I suppose you could say it gave me a riddle. Nothing special, really.”

“Do you want to hear I lied to your Guardian, saying I had done all I could for him? Is that it?”

“Stop taunting me!”

“Thanks, but I already have a friend. I don’t need a replacement.”

Selene (Pillars of Eternity)

"I was always good at that - finding the ones who need to let go of something. They just have this look - it's like their eyes are screaming."

“I do what I must to survive.”

“I know that there are very few people I can get along with, and there’s no one else like you, I don’t know why, but I - I can’t lose that.”

"...Can I see the cat again?"

“This doesn’t change anything... But it matters. To me. That you said that.”

"It did help, kind of. I think I stopped hearing voices for a while, but… it felt like I could see everything. Everything. And hear it. And smell it. My head still hurts."

"…Actually, I have a question. Can I ask you a question?"

"I was armed. And I wanted to live more than they did."

“…I’m glad I could help.”

“It’s not what happened, but it’s a way to remember it.”

“Thoughts are getting noisy back there, but other than that, it’s fun.”

"Did you know your hair is five different kinds of yellow? Because it is."

"Actually, you know what? Fuck it. I'm not an Ondrite anymore. I can say their names now."

"But what you said yesterday - what you said now - I don't know if it's right, but... I think knowing that you want this, and still not doing it, scares me even more."

"It broke something in me. Here was someone who suffered, but they - they didn't want to give it away."
