PART TWO. A collection of dialogue from Tevinter Nights: Hunger, Murder by Death Mages, The Streets of Minrathous, The Wigmaker Job, and Genitivi Dies in the End. To be used as sentence starters⦠or whatever. As per usual, feel free to change pronouns or whatever you see fit. Mentions of death & violence.
β Weβre outnumbered. And surrounded. β
β Thatβs bad, no? β
β Have you ever heard of a warning? β
β Does it hurt? β
β Thatβs our whole plan. Itβs not very good, is it? β
β Wardens donβt save everyone. β
β I donβt want you to die. β
β I should have died. β
β That doesnβt sound simple to me. β
β Still silent as the grave. That hasnβt changed. β
β I speak when itβs necessary. β
β I have no interest in trading petty barbs with you. β
β Would you like to come to a party? β
β I told you, I donβt like parties, and Iβm not here for fun. β
β At least try to look like you belong here. β
β Forgive me if I cannot manage to harbor any kindness for him. β
β Are you all right, mage? β
β You donβt think Iβll help? β
β Itβs not against the law to be a cultist. β
β Itβs very polite, but you donβt need to walk me out every time. β
β Someoneβs put a contract on your head. β
β Youβre not wearing that, are you? β
β I wouldnβt complain, if you filled me in. β
β Oh, good. More stairs. β
β Youβre not the least bit curious? β
β To be fair, you never told me the plan. β
β Never known you to have a soft heart. β
β That cavalier attitudeβs going to get you killed. β
β He doesnβt deserve a quick death. β
β I thought the plan was to have a few laughs, slit some throatsβΒ β
β Is this your handiwork? β
β You upset my delicate sensibilities. β
β Morality is not static. Right and wrong are a matter of perspective. β
β You donβt get to do thatβyou donβt get to quit. β
β Andrasteβs holy cabbage, you look like shit. β
β I did my good deed for the year. β
β Well, that does free me from promises I didnβt intend to keep. β
β Do you need a healer? β
β Old man, will you let me work? β
β Youβre asking me to go where? β
β Thereβs nothing for miles. β
β I didnβt find it as impressive as you did. β
β If I were forced to choose between eating that rat over there and being considerate of _____βs feelings, I would eat the rat. β
β Hereβs what I know about being a Grey Warden: You fight the worst monsters in Thedas, most people donβt notice, and then you do it again. β
i'm alive but i really need to do my stupid assignment for my stupid summer course. weh.
The subtle raise in Iago's brow vanishes almost as quickly as it comes. Why, yes, of course she would have a mechanic. They're almost annoyed that they let themselves be surprised for even a second. Then the lady laughs and they've already moved onto new questions, ever quick to accept Babette's growing list of quirks, wondering this time if that was part of her programming - a laugh - or something she's developed on her own. She's got a handle of it better than Iago does, in any case.
"'A specialist?'" There's a slight, amused twinge in their tone. "Do you mean to make yourself sound so mysterious?"
Or eager? She answered them quickly, and doesn't seem even the slightest bit concerned by the prospect of letting someone other than her mechanic take a look.
"I've never handled the sight of blood very well," Iago confesses. "So as long as nothing oozes too terribly, you'll be the first to hear me say that I am awfully curious about what you look like inside."
β i've never heard mysterious when i mention a specialist; most people seem to assume i am gravely ill. and then they get so very sad, and that usually ends the conversation entirely. β the assumption is not entirely inaccurate, though. Γ©lisabeth's construction is hostile to her continued existence. the best theory, pieced together by babette and her mechanic, is thus: her computer, her equivalent to a brain, was built to mimic a human woman exactly, but with little regard to how incomplete some of her neutral regulation pathways were, once plugged into her casing. it's not as though they could get in there to check - her computer and engine are sealed in porcelain jars, protected from being pried open by complex runes.
the cruel or careless intentions of her creators mattered not, the effect on babette was the same: no way to abate the need to cry, dulled nerves that only gave her access to the worsts of pain, and churning emotions in viscera that doesn't exist. babette simply does as she must: she deals with it. and, somehow, sometimes, dealing with it looks like βΒ whatever this is. she has to ask herself if this is appeasement, or sating of both their curiosities? perhaps both.
β aside from the occasional oil leak, there shouldn't be anything to ooze. that is a benefit, of being mechanical. β a pause, and babette begins the weirdest sentence of her life, asking, β my mechanic does not care, but, would you prefer to not look? i must, ah, disrobe to open my chassis. β
a big thing for laika is how much she, genuinely, thrives off of attention. the eyes of a crowd, individual attention, it doesn't really matter - the moments where she is in utter control and the center of the scene are the most important to her. ( not to say she can't share, but... well. it's a developed skill. she's developing it. )

the dead women mix.
i'm going to get back to people i owe dms to, but to add to that:
like this & i'll message you about possibly plotting ( pls have a muse in mind or be okay with most likely getting babette lol )
thinking about like βΒ Γ©lisabeth has an ethical dilemma around relationships. she's an android, a warforged, but she's not telling people that shit. dependent on setting, she could easily lose everything she has built ( her rights as a person, her right to practice law. ) but, what happens if an acquaintance becomes more a meaningful relationship. at what point is a friend privileged to know the truth? at what point is she safe to tell them the truth? it's a balancing act & frankly. insane.
for muses that are getting to know each other
β what's your favorite color and why? β
β can i come with you? β
β you have a nice smile, has anyone ever told you that before? β
β how do you take your coffee? β
β sorry, what was your name again? β
β it just occurred to me i never asked you what your last name is. β
β actually we've met before. β
β i've heard a few things about you. β
β care to join me? β
β i'm not really sure why i trust you. β
β i don't usually talk this much, it just feels easy to say stuff when you're listening. β
β i know we don't know each other that well but if you wanna talk about it... β
β could you help me with something? β
β do you like it here? β
β are you new around here? β
β you can ask me anything you want. i promise i'll answer truthfully except the things i feel like lying about. β
β i don't mean to be too forward, you just seem like you could use a friend right now. β
β you can come with me. i mean if you don't have anyone waiting for you. β
β we're friends now. you can ask me for help. β
β do you like this music? i can change it. β
β what are your favorite snacks? β
β really? i wouldn't have guessed that about you. β
β do you mind if i ask about it? β

Iago waits patiently while Γlisabeth finds her own voice again. These little ticks, they're used to- not only with this particular companion, but from a lifetime of similar outbursts (albeit, generally of a more gorish vein) from both their brother and themselves. They've no room to judge a little odd programming when they themselves often find unwanted words of sacrifice and bloodshed tumbling out of their mouth.
Her suggestion takes them by surprise. It isn't everyday a girl offers you a peek inside her chassis... But, so wrapped up un their own well-crafted passiveness, Iago often forgets just how strong the pull of their curiosity is. Her suggestion is more enticing than they would have expected.
"Would that... hurt?" they ask with a subtle, catlike tilt of their head. "I can't imagine opening up one's own chest cavity would be an enjoyable experience, no matter the material." They've never had the stomach for taxidermy like their brother.
β oh, there is no pain, β Γ©lisabeth assures plainly, clearly, and a bit too quickly, β i am... how to put it β by design, my chassis can be opened and closed; with no pain, i promise! how else would my mechanic perform maintenance on me, hm? β revealing that, of course, she has a mechanic in the first place. she supposes it wouldn't be the first time iago's heard that revelation, though.
in truth, their question sparked an immediate curiosity. what does her engine sound like? mechanics, cogs and wires, housed in a porcelain, canopic jar. it's not physically possible, to contrive and contort herself down to listen. it would have been strange, assumedly, to ask her sister. but, a friend? sure, this is definitely the normal thing to ask.
without warning, babette laughs, covering her mouth with her hand, β you know, that felt very strange. normally, i must refer to my mechanic under the euphemism specialist. this is much easier to avoid slips of the tongue. β

hello!!! i'm going to be working on writing for a bit, and then, i'm going to practice making chainmail :3
babette gives me cuteness agression
iago said to Γ©lisabeth, blurted out of the blue, "Do you have a heartbeat?"
* random asks. always accepting. @accultant
one. two. three second pause. in a very cold, clinical tone, she says, β that is not information that can be confidently assessed a positive or negative answer. β babette shakes her head, letting out a huff. a tick, a fun little habit, presumably a quirk in her perplexing programming - the passive voice, the robotic phrasing. she's a bard, for fuck's sake! she should be better at this.
starting over, β the truth is, without a heart, what is there to beat? β ( the narrator, laughs, omnisciently, but babette and iago cannot hear this. ) β i... suppose you could open my chassis to find out? β
currently thinking about how the word robot comes from robota: servitude.
some sketching for miss babs

also, if you thought, βhey, wouldn't only having a brain and a heart cause emotional disregulation?βΒ
you'd be right !!
dollfaced headcanon 001. construction.
originally designated alpha zero, Γ©lisabeth is the first prototype in the alpha series. each was an attempt at improving automaton design, at making something more and more capable of mimicking humanity. each alpha series unit used a porcelain housing, based on the classic ball jointed doll.
within the chassis are: (1) lungs made of brocade, sigils and enchantments woven in the fabric. (2) a porcelain vase in the same position as a heart. (3) vocal chords, a tongue, and a small reservoir for water. (4) inside the skull cavity, a porcelain box similar to two. (5) optics that connect to the main computer. (6) red wiring that connects all major components, and attaches at small points though out the chassis. all in all, a neoclassical nightmare of an automaton.
of these components, two and four house the alpha series' organic components. in truth, rather than mimicking sapience, the alpha series simply are made from sapient creatures. they are stripped down to the bare needs - the heart, not only to pump blood, but the housing of the soul; the brain, for control, the housing of the self; lungs for air, and magic to provide any needed nutrients.
alpha zero had the most complete set of organics; a full brain, and a full heart. each subsequent pass had less and less, but failed, for one reason or another. perhaps because shaving off the living components that powered their machine was not, in fact, the smartest idea.
it follows from there, then, that the alpha series are not capable of self-repair. the bloody ( literal ) secret of their construction is not known to them, in order to protect the scientists who made them. the canopic jars have, ostensibly, magical encryption, runes that prevent scrying into the contents. another rune shocks anyone who tries to open the jars.
