{PC is female, CHA 7+} Girl... you are some grade-A poon, anybody ever tell you that? {brazen come-on}

Neutral 50

{Female PC, CHA 7+} You keep talking to me, sweetness, and people are gonna think we're an item. Not that I mind. {coming on to female player}

{Male PC} Never seen you around before. What do you want?

{Moving into position} Cut the chatter. Focus on the job, or you're gonna end up dead. {all business - she's in combat}

{In position} Quit talking! We've got a job to do. {pissed - she's in combat}

{Nephi dead, Betsy got a hit} You did good out there. Glad you let me get a piece of Nephi. {genuinely praising the player}
|

GREETING
|
Neutral 50
|
{Nephi dead, Betsy didn't get a hit} What a pointless trip. Here I thought I'd get a shot at that junkie bastard. {disgusted}

GREETING

Neutral 50
|
{10 of Spades dead} Damn that 10 of Spades. Just had to go and get himself killed.
|

|
GREETING
|
Neutral 50
|
{Gorobets dead} Gorobets was all right - {lesbian afterthought, with some respect} for a man. Not gonna be the same without him.

GREETING
|
Neutral 50
|
I've been seeing Usanagi, and things are better. I'm not so angry all the time, you know? And, uh, I'm not trying to jump every woman in camp.
|
10
|
Neutral 50
|
Well, not all the time, anyway,
|

|
GREETING
|
Happy 5

{a little subdued, but friendly - the player's helped her} Hey.
|

GREETING

Happy 5
|
{Female PC} {friendly - likes women} Hey, girl. You need something from me?
|

{Male PC} {slight hostility - not fond of men} Yeah?

|
I heard you were raped by Cook-cook.
|
Neutral 50
|
Can't stop talking about that, can they? The Lieutenant actually sat me down and asked if I wanted to talk to a doctor. {talking about her rape - trying to shrug it off}
|
15
|
Neutral 50
|
Wouldn't believe me when I told him to forget it. I mean, if that slab of meat had gotten me pregnant, then maybe I'd want to talk to a doctor. {accent on "then"}
|
16
|
VFreeformMcCarran31ECorporalBetsyTopic001
|
Don't you want some payback?
|
Neutral 50
|
What kind of dumbass question is that? Of course I want payback.
|
17
|
Neutral 50
|
If I get hold of that fat pile of shit, I'll shove my rifle up his ass a couple hundred times, see how he likes it.
|
18
|
Neutral 50
|
Then I'll fire some shells up in there, make sure he doesn't ever forget me. He left me a bunch of souvenirs - I figure I can do the same.
|
19
|
Neutral 50
|
So yeah. Payback would be good. Doesn't mean I need to have myself a big long cry.
|
20
|
VFreeformMcCarran31ECorporalBetsyTopic002
|
10 of Spades blames himself.
|
Neutral 50
|
Yeah. Typical. Thing is, that fat pile of shit sneaked up on us from behind and kicked little 10 in the back of the head. {Typical references her male partner, who blames himself for her rape - spoken as "typical guy"}
|
21
|
Neutral 50
|
Knocked him out cold. Probably meant to kill him. The kid had no idea what happened until he woke up in the infirmary.
|
22
|
Neutral 50
|
10 wants to blame himself, I can't stop him. He'll work it through on his own.
|
23
|
VFreeformMcCarran31ECorporalBetsyTopic003
|
You were raped. That's not something you can just shrug off.
|
Neutral 50
|
Never said it was. But I don't need to talk to any doctors. Especially not the pricks around here.
|
24
|
Neutral 50
|
If I was smart, I'd fake a big old breakdown. That'd make everybody happy, and I'd get some leave time.
|
25
|
Neutral 50
|
But then I'd be doing what everybody wants, and being the asshole that I am, it just wouldn't feel right. Got to have some integrity.
|
26
|
VFreeformMcCarran31ECorporalBetsyTopic004
|
I thought you should know. Cook-cook is dead.
|
Neutral 50
|
You killed him? Well, shit. Here I'd dreamed up this whole elaborate revenge fantasy. {only half joking}
|
27
|
Neutral 50
|
Didn't really think I'd do it, but as long as the tubby bastard was actually alive, I could pretend like I would. {only half joking}
|
28
|
Neutral 50
|
Here. I owe you. Take it and get out of here, before I indulge my inner bitch and spoil the moment. {awkwardly trying to be sincere}
|
29
|
VFreeformMcCarran31ECorporalBetsyTopic005
|
You're a sniper?
|
Neutral 50
|
What gave me away? The big gun, the shades, or the attitude? {deadpan sarcastic}
|
30
|
VFreeformMcCarran31ECorporalBetsyTopic006
|
The big gun.
|
Neutral 50
|
Don't take this the wrong way, but girl, it's a damn good thing you're hot. That sarcasm blew right over your head, didn't it?
|
31
|
The big gun.
|
Neutral 50
|
Yup. Lot of people make that connection. Big gun. Sniper. Some people don't even need to ask. {deadpan sarcastic}
|
32
|
VFreeformMcCarran31ECorporalBetsyTopic007
|
I didn't know that all snipers wear shades.
|
Neutral 50
|
They don't. Only the good ones do.
|
33
|
Neutral 50
|
My partner's got some potential, so I let him wear those goofy glasses. I tell him they're his training shades. He totally buys it.
|
34
|
Neutral 50
|
Truth is, his eyes just suck.
|
35
|
VFreeformMcCarran31ECorporalBetsyTopic008
|
Who's your partner?
|
Neutral 50
|
The little guy. 10 of Spades. I like him because he listens. Doesn't shut up the rest of the time, but when I talk, he listens.
|
36
|
Neutral 50
|
Also, he doesn't pull any stupid come-ons, like practically every other horn-dog alpha male on this base. Might be he's just scared of me, though.
|
37
|
VFreeformMcCarran31ECorporalBetsyTopic009
|
So snipers work in pairs?
|
Neutral 50
|
{Female PC, CHA 7+} Yeah. We spot for each other, watch each other's backs. Usually works pretty well, unless you get paired up with an asshole.
|
38
|
Neutral 50
|
Thing is, there's a lot of assholes in the army. Now if they paired me up with somebody who looks like you... {coming on to female player again}
|
39
|
Neutral 50
|
Lot of downtime in the army. Nobody around but you and your partner. Plenty of time for... whatever we want.
|
40
|
So snipers work in pairs?
|
Neutral 50
|
Yeah. We spot for each other, watch each other's backs. Usually works pretty well, unless you get paired up with an asshole.
|
41
|
Neutral 50
|
Thing is, there's a lot of assholes in the army. I keep hoping they'll pair me up with some hot blonde, like you see on those old pinups.
|
42
|
Neutral 50
|
Shit, I don't even care if she can shoot straight. Can't have everything.
|
43
|
VFreeformMcCarran31ECorporalBetsyTopic010
|
Actually, I didn't notice the attitude until just now.
|
Neutral 50
|
Hah! See, we've even got the same sense of humor. I like a girl who doesn't piss me off after sex. {another brash come-on to female player}
|
44
|
Actually, I didn't notice the attitude until just now.
|
Neutral 50
|
Hah! You're not as dumb as I thought you'd be. We got the same sense of humor.
|
45
|
Neutral 50
|
Probably better to walk away while I still like you, though. All kinds of things piss me off. Like just about anything that anybody says.
|
46
|
VFreeformMcCarran31ECorporalBetsyTopic011
|
How about a date? I like tough women.
|
Anger 10
|
{lesbian, hostile} Yeah, right. You're sniffing up the wrong skirt. Try me again when you're tall, blonde, and female. {player just made a pass at her}
|
47
|
How about a date? I like tough women.
|
Neutral 50
|
{lesbian, but friendly} Thanks for your help with Usanagi and all, but I still like them tall, blonde, and female.
|
48
|
VFreeformMcCarran31ECorporalBetsyTopic012
|
Have you seen any serious combat here?
|
Neutral 50
|
Not unless you count the Fiends as serious. Gorobets keeps us inside the fence, most of the time. Doesn't matter to me, I just shoot bad guys.
|
49
|
Neutral 50
|
Sooner or later, they'll move us out to the Dam, though. That's when the shit gets nasty.
|
50
|
VFreeformMcCarran31ECorporalBetsyTopic013
|
What do you mean?
|
Neutral 50
|
Legion fights to win. And they're smart... hell of a lot smarter than these crazy Fiends. But I don't feel bad about shooting Legion boys.
|
51
|
Neutral 50
|
Fiends, on the other hand... sometimes I get some pangs of conscience. Not often. But sometimes.
|
52
|
VFreeformMcCarran31ECorporalBetsyTopic014
|
First I've heard about conscience in a while.
|
Neutral 50
|
Some cute little junkie bitch, so fucked-up she doesn't even know that she's the bad guy. And I've got to headshot her. Makes me think.
|
53
|
Neutral 50
|
Might just be sex, though. I see some cute little number, and I'd rather get in her pants. So maybe I'm a stone-cold bitch, after all.
|
54
|
First I've heard about conscience in a while.
|
Neutral 50
|
Yeah, doesn't sound like me at all, right? But it happens.
|
55
|
VFreeformMcCarran31ECorporalBetsyTopic015
|
I've killed so many people, I don't even think about it.
|
Neutral 50
|
Yeah, well, we can't all be heartless shitheads, right?
|
56
|
VFreeformMcCarran31ECorporalBetsyTopic016
|
Goodbye.
|
Neutral 50
|
Yeah... I always scare off the hot ones... {hot ones = hot women that she likes}
|
57
|
Goodbye.
|
Neutral 50
|
You don't have to leave, girl. Better yet, come and find me when I'm off duty.
|
58
|
Goodbye.
|
Neutral 50
|
Yeah. Try not to get killed.
|
59
|
VFreeformMcCarran31ECorporalBetsyTopic017
|
That's a little forward, don't you think?
|
Neutral 50
|
Yeah. So what? I could take a bullet in the skull tomorrow. I haven't got time to take it slow and subtle. {player just said she was being too forward}
|
60
|
Neutral 50
|
I see somebody I like, I go ahead and tell her. That's about the only thing that the horn-dog males get right.
|
61
|
VFreeformMcCarran31ECorporalBetsyTopic018
|
Sorry, not interested.
|
Neutral 50
|
Damn shame. I've got some leave time coming to me, and I booked a suite at the Gomorrah. The two of us, rolled up in those silk sheets...
|
62
|
VFreeformMcCarran31ECorporalBetsyTopic019
|
{Cherchez-la-Femme}Only all the time.
|
Neutral 50
|
You and me at Gomorrah, rolled up in those silk sheets. I got leave coming up in a bit, so let me know if you'll be around.
|
63
|
VFreeformMcCarran31ECorporalBetsyTopic022
|
You should get medical help for your trauma.
|
Neutral 50
|
The Lieutenant's been talking to you, hasn't he? Look, I don't need a head doctor - I'm First Recon, damn it.
|
64
|
Anger 5
|
You don't see the others crying about every little bruise and scrape, do you?
|
65
|
VFreeformMcCarran31ECorporalBetsyTopic023 < Medicine 40 >
|
Mental trauma can slow you down or distract you, but it's treatable - just like any bullet wound.
|
Neutral 50
|
[SUCCEEDED] Just another injury to take care of, huh? Well, when you put it that way... all right. You can tell the Lieutenant I finally caved.
|
66
|
Neutral 50
|
There's a Doctor Usanagi who's supposed to be good at this sort of thing.
|
67
|
Just get the help. You'll feel better, I promise.
|
Neutral 50
|
[FAILED] I already told you that I'm fine. I don't need a head doc.
|
68
|
VFreeformMcCarran31ECorporalBetsyTopic025
|
The rest of First Recon all agree that you should go see Doctor Usanagi.
|
Anger 20
|
This was none of their business - or yours. You've got no right to talk to people behind my back about this.
|

VFreeformMcCarran31ECorporalBetsyTopic026
|
10 of Spades says his stuttering got better because of Usanagi.
|
Neutral 50
|
{snorting, sarcastic} He got better? If he says so. Anyway, 10 of Spades is a good kid - maybe I ought to listen to him for once.
|
70
|
10 of Spades says his stuttering got better because of Usanagi.
|
Neutral 50
|
I'm guessing the other two had similar things to say. All right, consider me convinced. I'll go see Usanagi.
|
71
|
Neutral 50
|
You can tell the Lieutenant that I caved. {hesitating, not used to showing gratitude} And... thanks.
|
72
|
VFreeformMcCarran31ECorporalBetsyTopic027
|
Bitter-Root admitted that Usanagi was able to help him with his problems.
|
Surprise 10
|
Bitter-Root actually said that? I can't see him talking about his problems to anybody, much less admitting that someone else actually helped him.
|
73
|
VFreeformMcCarran31ECorporalBetsyTopic028
|
Sterling said that if he'd let his pride get in the way, he wouldn't be in First Recon.
|
Neutral 50
|
I always wondered about that. First Recon is elite, but the rangers... I can't imagine what it'd be like to lose that kind of status.
|
74
|
VFreeformMcCarran31ECorporalBetsyTopic029 < Speech 60 >
|
You're a weak link. I know it, you know it, and First Recon knows it. Do something about it.
|
Surprise 10
|
[SUCCEEDED] {impressed by player's harsh attitude} Damn. Never had you pegged for the drill instructor type, but you got my attention.
|
75
|
Neutral 50
|
You can tell the Lieutenant that I finally caved. I'll... {grudgingly} get help. There's a Doctor Usanagi who's supposed to be good at this sort of thing.
|
76
|
Just get the help. People are worried about you.
|
Anger 10
|
[FAILED] "People" ought to mind their own business.
|
77
|
VFreeformMcCarran3Topic000
|
Yes. But never a woman.
|
Neutral 50
|
Trust me, the alpha males are overrated. Plenty of them in the army. All they're good for is killing each other and taking smelly shits.
|
78
|
Yes. But never a woman.
|
Neutral 50
|
I'm just saying... never know what you might like, if you don't give it a try. {coming on to female player}
