Open-World Dialogue

Fantasy Resort

(Talk to Anton, Grace, and Koleda - 12AM)
Grace: We've checked the stage structure and wiring setup. Anton, how are the audio and lighting looking?
Anton: Last time we used it, the staff reported that some light signals weren't very responsive. They may need to be checked and repaired...
Koleda: Leave it to me!
Grace: Hold up, sweet pea. You're barely taller than the mic! Get back inside and let big sis handle this.
Koleda: Hmph! You think I can't find a way just 'cause I'm short!? Anton, bring me a ladder, NOW!!
Anton: Uh... Boss... please calm down... Just calm down...

Anton: Proxy! I feel like I'm always seeing the back of your head sitting there under the noodle shop sign.
Anton: Have you got a soft spot for this hipster noodle joint, too?
Anton: After guzzling down a fat bowl of red chili noodles, I can really feel that spice!
Icon Dialogue Talk ...uh, guzzling?
Anton: That's a term I stole from General Chop!
Anton: "Anton guzzles down noodles like a fish drinks water" — at least, that's what General Chop says.
Icon Dialogue Talk How spicy is it?
Anton: Huh? How can I explain this to you...
Anton: I'm sweating like I'm inside a furnace. My heart's pounding and my muscles are stiffening up...
Anton: Mmm... this flavor demands another bowl to really get the whole shebang!
Anton: Proxy, do you want another bowl too? It's on me!
Icon Dialogue Talk Well, if you're buying, then...
Icon Dialogue Talk I just finished one, but then again...
Icon Dialogue Talk Your enthusiasm is difficult to resist, Anton!
You thoroughly enjoy the bowl of spicy noodles with Anton...
Anton recounts plenty of construction site anecdotes while you're eating, his enthusiasm is even spicier than the noodles.
Anton: This boldness you're showing in the face of noodles is something you don't get to see every day.
Anton: So you can feel it too, right?
Anton: The kind of spicy heat that can get you lifting a hundred pounds of bricks across the construction site!

Anton: This familiar taste...
(Talk to Anton)
Anton: Proxy.
Anton: I really regret it now...
Anton: I just tried a cup of the espresso that Grace keeps talking about.
Anton: It tastes...
Anton: It tastes just like the medicine they made me take as a kid! Actually, it's even more bitter...
Anton: Why would anyone choose to drink this stuff?
Icon Dialogue Talk To wake up and stay sharp!
Trust Rank Friendly Trust increase with Anton Ivanov
Anton: So people drink espresso to stay awake and sharp...
Anton: I can't believe Grace has been putting up with this taste for the sake of Belobog's R&D this whole time...
Anton: I'm in complete awe of her!
Icon Dialogue Talk It's delicious once you get used to it.
Anton: This flavor... Do people really ever get used to it?
Anton: Even Nitro-Fuel tastes way better than this!
Anton: Give me a bottle of Nitro-Fuel, and I can work efficiently all day! But this stuff just sends me straight to the bathroom...
You spend some time chatting with Anton about coffee culture.
It's surprising how different people's tastes can be...
(Idle)
Anton: So Grace has been putting up with that taste this whole time...
(Talk to Anton again, optional)
Anton: I [sic] really not a big fan of coffee, but... I'll drink it out of support for my coworkers!

Student: Please go away!
Anton: Be careful... *bzzz bzzz bzzzz*...
(Approach Anton)
Jackhammer: *bzzz bzzz bzzzz*...
Anton: Hey! Your... *boom* *bash*... loose... better... be careful...
(The jackhammer is terribly loud. What is Anton saying?)
Student: Woah! Please don't hurt me!
Jackhammer: *bzzz bzzz bzzzz*...
Student: That's a scary weapon you're wielding. Please don't point that at me *sobbing*
Anton: Weapon? Are you talking about... *bzzz bzzz bzzzz*... my bro?
Student: You're scary enough as you are. Please don't bring any more bros... *sobbing*
Student: Take everything I have! It's all here... Just please, let me go... *sobbing*
The student throws his wallet at Anton with all his strength and runs away without looking back...
Anton: Ah, just who I was looking for!
Anton: I just met this high school kid on his way home. I wanted to tell him his shoelace was loose.
Anton: But he suddenly started shaking, threw his wallet at me, and ran off...
Icon Dialogue Talk Was he scared of your bro?
Anton: Really? But my bro is very friendly.
Anton: He even said Hi to the kid! Like this.
Jackhammer: *bzzz bzzz bzzzz*...
Icon Dialogue Talk That's just his way of thanking you
Trust Rank Friendly Trust increase with Anton Ivanov
Anton: Oh, I see!
Anton: Just helping someone with a loose shoelace. It's the little things, you know?
Anton: That's quite over-the-top for a thank you gift...
You chat with Anton about what to do with this wallet...
Anton plans on taking it in to the nearest Public Security.
Icon Dialogue Talk Perhaps we'll see that student there?
Anton: You think so?
Anton: Perhaps, he and I are connected by fate...
Icon Dialogue Talk Just make it clear that you're not there to turn yourself in.
Anton: You only turn yourself in if you've done something wrong. What I do is all good deeds.
Anton: Why'd you say something like that, Proxy...?
(Idle)
Anton: Is there a student ID inside the wallet?
(Talk to Anton again, optional)
Anton: I've decided! This is way too valuable for me to keep.

Anton: The sorrows~ will soon~ pass!
Anton: Everything! Will—
Jackhammer: *bzzz bzzz bzzzz*...
Lost in the world of rock and roll, Anton and his bro finally notice an audience has arrived...
Anton: Oh hey, Proxy! What's up? Just playing a little something I wrote back when I was still in a band.
Anton: Too bad we split up...
Icon Dialogue Talk What kind of band?
Icon Dialogue Talk What did you play in the band?
Anton: A metal band!
Anton: My bro was the lead singer and I rocked the air guitar.
Icon Dialogue Talk Bro's death growl must have been intense!
Trust Rank Friendly Trust increase with Anton Ivanov
Anton: Right? You've got good taste!
Anton: The moment my bro piped up... everyone would go bananas!
Icon Dialogue Talk I think I know why the band split up.
Anton: Yeah... protecting Belobog and President Koleda comes first.
Anton: Just you wait until Belobog Heavy Industries is HEAVY enough to crush TOPS to smithereens... THEN we'll be able to focus on getting the band back together.
Anton and his bro passionately perform the band's old hits.
He seems oblivious to why they disbanded.
(Idle)
Anton: Playing in the band with my bro... those were the good days...
(Talk to Anton again, optional)
Anton: Playing for you just reignited the passionate dreams of young Anton!

Anton: President Khors...
(Talk to Anton)
Anton: There you are, Proxy! I just got down out of the crane.
Anton: I'm used to working at high altitudes now, but I still get that feeling of fragility every time I look down.
Anton: Mmm... It feels as though I can see the company making its changes, day in day out.
Anton: The equipment's bigger and better. There're more and more coworkers on the site, and the company is growing more prosperous.
Anton: It would be so great if old President Khors... If he could also see Belobog like this.
Anton: Ah, that was weird. I shouldn't have said that... Forget I said anything.
Icon Dialogue Talk So you've also got a soft side, Anton.
Trust Rank Friendly Trust increase with Anton Ivanov
Anton: Haha, seems like I'm always over-thinking when it's something to do with work.
Anton: Even if Belobog Industries still has a long way to go before it reaches its peak... we'll get there, one day!
Icon Dialogue Talk Y'know, Khors would be proud of you too.
Trust Rank Trusted Significant Trust increase with Anton Ivanov
Anton: I hope so too.
Anton: We can't slack off! I mean, at the very least we can't let down the old Prez.
As you listen to Anton recounting stories of Khors and the history of Belobog Heavy Industries
— a rare look of tenderness can be seen in the eyes of this hot-headed dude.
Anton: President Khors always had to shoulder too much for him to carry Belobog forward on his own.
Anton: And President Koleda... she's also got a heavy burden to carry, on those tiny shoulders of hers.
Anton: But at least she's still got us. We're all working together alongside her!
Anton: Plus — we've got a secret weapon like you now!
(Idle)
Anton: The president truly is amazing, to build up the company to where it is today.

Anton: I'm not helping next time...
(Talk to Anton)
Anton: I'm tired... Impossible! A real bro doesn't admit to being tired!
Anton: Ah, I mean, for a real bro, nothing is impossible!
Icon Dialogue Talk Are you okay?
Icon Dialogue Talk It's fine.
Anton: I assigned difficult tasks to all my bros, hoping they'd live up to their potential...
Anton: But seeing them lose confidence as they fail to reach the inspection criteria...
Anton: One pitch-black night, I couldn't stop myself from just helping them finish it all!
Anton: Now I'm so tired, that I feel like I've been run over by a truck carrying construction materials...
Icon Dialogue Talk In the end, it was you who had to pass a trial.
Anton: Ah! How come it all turned out this way!
Anton: Why am I always the one who...
Icon Dialogue Talk You care about them.
Anton: Really?
Anton: I'm trying my best to be strict with them!
You spend some time chatting with Anton about his subordinates.

Anton: What should I get for lunch today?
(Talk to Anton)
Anton: New Eridu Classic... Rainforest Cowboy... Roadside Picnic... Which one should I choose for lunch today?
Anton: Proxy? Good afternoon there! You eaten yet?
Anton: I often go to this place. It's my go-to spot for a workday lunch.
Anton: The food here goes down really easily. The ingredients go together really well. There's a fresh-baked bun for energy and all these complex layers of flavor... It's just the perfect workday lunch!
Anton: Mmm... The only drawback is, there're way too many different flavors.
Icon Dialogue Talk You call that a drawback?
Icon Dialogue Talk It must make things pretty tough for people with decision paralysis, right?
Anton: Yeah. Every hot dog flavor is unique, but then again you don't want to suck down too many calories...
Anton: When this happens, which hot dog to order turns into the question of the day.
Anton: But now since you're here, Proxy, you can choose my hot dog for lunch today!
(2 of the following Options will be given, with 1 giving a Trust Increase and the other always being "Cheesy Power")
Icon Dialogue Talk Eridu Classic!
Trust Rank Friendly Trust increase with Anton Ivanov
Anton: The classic? Excellent choice there, Proxy.
Anton: The traditional Eridu beef sausages' unique flavor, and the yellow mustard sets off a further taste explosion... I can't wait to bite into it right now!
Icon Dialogue Talk Cheesy Power!
Anton: Cheesy...? Cheese with bread may give you that rich and appealing countryside taste, but for someone currently in a fat loss cycle like me that is going to be calorific hell...
Anton: But seeing as that's your choice, Proxy, then I guess even if we're in hell...
Icon Dialogue Talk Rainforest Cowboy!
Trust Rank Friendly Trust increase with Anton Ivanov
Anton: I haven't tried that flavor yet. I'm sure looking forward to it...
Anton: Wrapped in the tropical taste of guacamole, this one has a rich and spicy smoked sausage flavor. Even just thinking about it gives you this unique and delicious experience all of its own.
Icon Dialogue Talk Wildfire Rangers!
Trust Rank Friendly Trust increase with Anton Ivanov
Anton: Whoa! So it's Wildfire Commando time, is it?
Anton: A peppery smoked beef sausage splattered with spicy hot chili sauce, like simmering lava and smoldering sparks blazing down my throat! ... That's a spicy taste... which is also my absolute favorite!
Anton: You grab one too, Proxy. This place is the top-rated hotdog joint at Lumina Square!
At Anton's request, you both chow down on hot dogs.
The streetside flavors surprise you. The sandwiches at this joint are also supposed to be pretty decent.
(Idle)
Anton: My energy for work is back!
(Talk to Anton again, optional)
Anton: What a hearty workday meal!
Anton: Next time I'm stuck on what to eat, I'll come find you, Proxy...

Mentions: Old Duyi



(Idle)
Anton: Ow... still a little sore...
(Interact with Anton)
Anton: Proxy! You here for some meds too?
Anton: As someone who works in and out of Hollows, a Proxy like yourself should really pay more attention to your health.
Anton: I just found out that the Hollows do more than just cause corruptions, they affect your body in other ways too...
Anton: Like, your metabolism slows down, making it more difficult for muscles to recover.
Anton: *tsk*... My thighs and arms are crying out in pain.
Icon Dialogue Talk Is your body okay, Anton?
Anton: It's nothing serious! But working inside the Hollows right after a workout really does hit the body hard.
Icon Dialogue Talk I thought you were built out of concrete, Anton
Anton: Ha! I'll take that as a compliment!
Anton: They say, "Pain is proof of training" — while it's certainly true, sometimes too much pain can get in the way of doing work.
Anton: Ben suggested I stick to easy tasks first, but I'm worried about keeping the project on schedule...
Icon Dialogue Talk Maybe try Jonathan's special meds?
Anton: I read about this pharmacy online. Seems like I've come to the right place.
Anton: I trust you more than any search engine, Proxy!
You go into the pharmacy with Anton...
Under the doctor's guidance, you help Anton pick an affective medication.
Even a body as tough as concrete still needs care.
Anton: Thanks, Proxy.
Anton: Don't worry. In a few days, my body will be good as new!
Icon Dialogue Talk I know a fantastic massage place...
Anton: Is it... THAT massage place? I heard the manager there is a robot who'll brutally hammer your body with six arms...
Anton: But if you come along, maybe I'd be down to try it...
You and Anton visit Old Duyi at the massage parlor...
After withstanding half an hour of hammering, this big tough guy screams as if he'd been snapped in half.
Anton: Sorry you had to see me like that, Proxy...
Anton: *ahem*...Awkward as it was, my muscles do feel much looser now.
Anton: I guess there's some truth to that saying about iron being forged under pressure!

Anton: You're right, Proxy!
Anton: No reason to let a little pain keep me down!
You go into the pharmacy with Anton...
Under the doctor's guidance, you help Anton pick a fast-acting medicine that works almost immediately.
This guy really is built different.
Anton: Your words made me see my own fears... it's humbling.
Anton: I have so much to learn from you.
Anton: I've still got work to do, gotta head back to the construction site now.
Anton: Catch you later, Proxy!

Your squad luckily finds a safe area to rest and decides to take a break.
Anton: "Hey, Proxy! Mind keeping count for me?"
While you're resting, Anton approaches with a smile.
Anton: "I haven't met my exercise quota for today, so I thought now would be a good chance to catch up! I'll only be doing exercises that don't require equipment, so please just keep count for me!"
Despite the frequent combat and Ether corruption, Anton is still full of energy!
Without waiting for a reply, he starts doing warm-up exercises...

Go for it, Anton!
Anton: "Thanks for agreeing to train with me, Proxy! Let's get started! We'll begin with the basics!"
Wait, you agreed to keep count for him, but now it feels like he's treating you as his workout buddy!?
The passionate young man doesn't even leave a chance to ask questions; in the blink of an eye, he's immersed in a vigorous exercise routine, sweating profusely.

Anton: "Don't worry! I'm feelin' great! You've already briefed us on the exploration route, so I'll just patrol the area ahead and wait for everyone at the next exit!"
Anton wants to patrol the area ahead alone. There are probably enough enemies along the way for him to release all that excess energy...
Will you let Anton leave the squad and patrol?
Lose Agent
I'm counting on you, Anton.
Anton becomes unavailable for 1 combat, but all enemies in the next 3 combats have their HP reduced.
Anton: "Okay! You can count on me! I'll get rid of any enemies along the way too! See ya at the next exit!"
The young executive from Belobog picks up his weapon and dashes without hesitation toward the next exploration point.
Hopefully, he'll remember the path behind him...
Exit

Anton's in the State of Flow, but it's too risky to let a teammate act alone.
