" Tell me, have you been enjoying any hobbies in the palace? I imagine my son has not been that entertaining for you lately?"

" Anal sex is disgusting, needlessly dangerous, and a waste of calories."

" The third key of Solomon has earned his visage as a parrot. An energetic, intelligent, and loud Prince-ling is he. I fear for his life should he continue to rock the boat, though his faithfulness to my house shall not be forgotten should he need my aid in the future. Disgraced as my son is he risked his reputation for him. "

" Earth pops out those business fiends out like a whore hath children. She'll have her time and then be thrown to the flames in time, I find her entirely forgettable truly. She is a beauty, but there are many beauties in this world, just as there are those middling mercantile class ruffians. I will forget I ever knew her."

" That child is always caught up in some manner of controversy."

" One does not choose who they are. Only how well they accomplish their purpose."

The only tropes that I dislike with no general reasons are tropes that feel overdone, things that I see too much of. Lately I am kind of getting tired of the 'dominant girl submissive guy' character dynamic. I used to love it, but I feel like I've seen it everywhere both in pop culture and here. I have played a lot of BG3, and spend a lot of my life on this website, at this point its a bit subversive for me when its the man who's the big scary one.

Penelope from the Odyssey. She always seemed pretty cool.
