Idle Quotes

(Next to the Lumina Galleria statue, Tue 6AM-12AM)
Azhu: Lumina Galleria clears their expiring food on Tuesdays.
Azhu: It's a shopping carnival for me!

(Near the parking lot, Wed 12AM)
Azhu: Ugh, today's quiz... I probably blew it again.
Azhu: How do I tell Ida...?

(By the Coff Cafe stairs, Sat 12AM)
Azhu: You want to tutor me today?
Azhu: Can't I spend my weekend in peace?
Ida: You should have worked harder. There's no one to blame but yourself.
Ida: I'm sacrificing my weekends to help you!

(By the SREC billboard, Sun 6AM)
Azhu: There are discounts on prepared food at the Lumina Galleria! I want to check it out!
Ida: Forget it. It will be so crowded that we'll never be able to squeeze in.
Ida: We're no match for those crazy shoppers.

(Near Beaverson Beauty Salon, Sun 6PM)
Azhu: It's the weekend! Finally I can relax a bit.
Azhu: Gotta get more part-time jobs to save more money.
Azhu: Then I'll buy a cup of Richard Teamilk for Ida next week!
Azhu: But maybe she'll be happier if I studied harder?

Dialogue

(By the Public Security Office entrance, Mon 6AM)
Azhu: This PubSec office is always buzzing with people on Mondays.
Azhu: Come to think of it, even criminals and Hollow Raiders might need to come to Public Security for paperwork, right?
Icon Dialogue Talk That's true.
Azhu: Ahem... just kidding! No way those wicked guys would dare set foot in here.
Azhu: They're probably hiding out in some secret lair, plotting their hacks and AI schemes to take over all of New Eridu, just like in a movie!

(In front of the HIA Club, Mon 12PM-6PM)
Ida: Hmm... should I major in Hollow Exploration or Etheric Applications...?
Ida: Ahhh! I just can't decide which one to choose.
Azhu: You're overthinking it! Look at me! I never worry about this stuff.
Ida: Yeah, because with your grades, you don't really have much of a choice!

(Near Richard Teamilk, Wed 6AM)
Azhu: I heard the teamilk shop is having a BOGO deal.
Azhu: What do you think? Wanna grab some free teamilk with me?
Ida: No thanks, I'll get my own. I can finish two myself.
Azhu: Argh! How can someone as smart as you, who always gets top scores in every exam, be such an idiot right now? How can you not get what I'm saying?!
Azhu: Ugh, wait a minute... Am I the idiot here...?

(In front of Eve's Newsstand, Wed 12PM)
Azhu: Argh! I blew the quiz again! And now I have to stay for extra lessons again! Just my luck!
Azhu: Oh? Wait a minute... The internet says luck balances out. So, if my studies aren't going well lately, I may get a nice surprise if I buy a Bangboo surprise box!
Azhu: I've done the math. Based on the probability of recent surprise boxes, I just have to buy a whole set to get the secret item! It's a sure win!
Ida: You failed in mathematics, right?

(In front of the SREC billboard, Wed 6PM)
Jing: I heard your cram school just had a quiz. How was it?
Azhu: You just had to bring it up, huh? I did the worst again... I don't even dare to look through my mistakes right now.
Jing: I—If you don't want the test paper, could I have a look at it? I may not have the money for the cram school, but I'd like to study your test anyway.
Azhu: Ugh, forget it. It's embarrassing. Just the sight of it makes me lose my appetite...
Jing: (Gulp) Then do you still want your food? If you don't, I'm happy to finish it for you...

(By JC Pharmacy, Thur 6AM-6PM)
Kui: We should buy more Richard Teamilk coupons to monopolize their circulation in schools.
Kui: We'll wait until the teamilk shop has a special giveaway promotion, then when their discount coupons are in short supply, we'll sell all the coupons we have at an exorbitant price!
Kui: Those foolish people who like to socialize and couples at school will definitely buy all our stock just to keep up with the trend!
Azhu: Boss... I support you this time. They have been an eyesore to me for a long time. We must take this chance to make a fortune from them!
Kui: Oh, but remember to save two coupons for me. Nala and I want to have a cup too.

(On top of Coff Cafe, Fri 12PM)
Azhu: Ahhh! Please give me some more time! I think I have an idea...
Ida: Are you really doing the test? I feel like you've only been staring at the test paper after writing your name.

(In front of JC Pharmacy, Fri 6PM)
Azhu: I failed the exam again. Maybe I should give up on pursuing higher education and find any old part-time job after I graduate.
Karoni: Alright. Then let me ask you something. There are more than a dozen different categories of new products here. How do we calculate their shelf dates and promotional discounts?
Azhu: Huh? I need to do math even when I'm working part-time? D-Doesn't that mean I'm doomed?

(By Officer Mewmew, Sat 6PM)
Karl: There are a lot of people around this intersection. The next time you ask her out, you can extend your hand to her when you cross the road!
Karl: If she likes you, maybe she will come closer to you and take your hand!
Azhu: What if I'm more proactive and hold her hand directly?
Karl: ABSOLUTELY NOT! That would count as harassment. Forget about crossing the road. You should just go to Public Security to make a statement!

(By Officer Mewmew, Sun 12PM)
Azhu: The intersection ahead is a little dangerous.
Azhu: G—Give me your hand, let me... Let me take you across.
Ida: Huh? Why? Are you walking a dog or something?

(On the Coff Cafe staircase, Sun 12AM)
Azhu: Finally done with cram school today! Time to relax without thinking about school...
Icon Dialogue Talk Tomorrow is Monday.
Azhu: Don't remind me! What are you, the devil?

HIA Commemorative Coin

(Idle, 12AM)
Azhu: The homework pile is seriously getting out of hand...
(Talk to Azhu)
Azhu: I heard there's a "homework helper" around here...
Azhu: If you happen to know them, could you find out their rates?
Icon Dialogue Talk Hey, you've got to handle your homework yourself!
Azhu: S-stop scolding... I'm drowning in literature assignments!
Azhu: Please, see if you can help! I really, really need your support!
(Idle)
Kui: There's been so many orders these days...
(Talk to Kui)
Kui: I see... My rates have gone up lately... Lots of orders, you know.
Icon Dialogue Talk So, what are the rates?
Kui: Huh? Need a hand with your homework too? What's the subject?
Icon Dialogue Talk Literature.
Kui: Tsk... literature, right? Always a mountain of writing. That'll cost you quite a fortune.
Icon Dialogue Talk Math.
Kui: Math, right? Tons of symbols, and a small slip-up could mess things up. That'll cost you quite a fortune.
Icon Dialogue Talk Etheric Research
Kui: Etheric research? Tons of graphs, right? A tough nut to crack. That'll cost you quite a fortune.
Kui: So, who do you need? High schoolers charge 5,000 Dennies. Bangboo come in at 4,000 Dennies. College students are the cheapest at 3,000 Dennies.
Icon Dialogue Talk Wait, even a Bangboo can help with homework?
Kui: Absolutely! My Bangboo's a master at mimicking handwriting, even signatures!
Icon Dialogue Talk College students are cheap!
Kui: Yeah, college students might be a bargain, but their work can be shoddy, and I don't recommend them!
Kui: You choose them at your own risk, and if things go sideways, you're on your own.
Icon Dialogue Talk Got it...
Kui: Yeah, once you decide, send me your homework.
(Talk to Azhu)
Azhu: Hey, you're back! How did it go? Any luck with that homework helper?
Icon Dialogue Talk (Tell him the rates.)
Azhu: Yikes...! That'll burn a hole in your wallet!
Azhu: Guess I'll have to do it myself... Maybe with the savings, I'll treat Ida to some coffee.
Azhu: Keep her happy, and maybe she'll ease up on my homework pestering...
Azhu: Anyway, thanks for checking! Here, a little something for you!
