Dialogue
- Delaroche: Patience, patience... This is just a test of my patience...
- Delaroche: As the director of the Fishing Association, I must remain by my post here at the fishing point — I shall defeat these Linebreakers with my unbending will!
Never mind that for now. I'd like to purchase some fishing supplies.
- Delaroche: Oh sure, of course! Take your pick!

How's the haul?
- (Before completing Delaroche's Bait)
- Delaroche: Why, hello there! Thanks for your concern!
- Delaroche: As you can see, I'm having a hard time with these Linebreakers, these fighters who dwell underwater. I haven't really had much success yet.
- Delaroche: But so long as I keep my head down and keep at it, believe me, I shall eventually earn my victory!
- How's your recent catches been?
- (After completing Delaroche's Bait, if the player chose to rationally explain to her)
- Delaroche: Ah! The God of Victorious Linebreaking! We meet again!
- Delaroche: I've been steadily improving my bait recently, and think I've come a long way. I've even caught several... somewhat larger fish!
- Delaroche: I still don't think I've managed to create the ideal bait, however, so I don't have anything to give you...
- Delaroche: But please, don't worry! At this rate, I know I'll be able to recreate that wonderful bait sooner or later!
- You really did bring a weapon!
- (After completing Delaroche's Bait, if the player chose to scare her)
- Delaroche: Hehe, that's right! I asked a friend at the Adventurer's Guild to procure it. Apparently, it's a foreign model...
- Delaroche: While it's not as elegant to use as pistolets, it's simple, cheap, and easy to maintain.
- Delaroche: O strange aquatic creature, you'd better pray I don't catch you. Otherwise, special treatment shall be in order!
- Who are you?
- Delaroche: I'm the current director of the Fontaine Fishing Association, Delaroche! If you have any questions about fishing, you can come to me!
- Delaroche: Ah, but I refer to fishing equipment and material. As for techniques, tips, and tricks, I shall not haphazardly instruct others.
- Well, I shan't bother you, then.
- Delaroche: Huh? Wait. Did you ask me something? Sorry, I didn't notice you there — I won't do that again, trust me!
Trivia
- François-Étienne de La Roche or Delaroche, was a Genevan physician, naturalist, chemist, botanist and ichthyologist.
Notes
- ↑ While Delaroche says she "used to be an ordinary clerk at the Fontaine Research Institute," she refers to fishing as hobby and says she is only "partially in charge of the Fishing Association," suggesting she is still formally a member of the Fontaine Research Institute.
