| BigtownBittercupGreeting1 | Bittercup? That's the dumbest name I've ever heard! | Neutral 50 | No one understands me. You're just like all the others around here. | 1 |
| BigtownBittercupGreeting1a | I'm sorry... erm... Bittercup. What were you saying? | Neutral 50 | Finally! Someone who doesn't judge me! You know, the people here are just so quick to assume that they know everything about you. | 2 |
| Neutral 50 | I mean, like, just because I look different doesn't mean that I'm some sort of freak, you know? It's like, hello, this world sucks! | 3 | ||
| Neutral 50 | No one gets that, they're all like "blah blah blah, what's wrong with that girl?". | 4 | ||
| BigtownBittercupGreeting1b | I don't know about that, but Bittercup is one dumbass name. | Sad 75 | FINE! Be that way! You'll be sorry! You'll all be sorry! {Breaks into a pathetic sob at the end.} | 5 |
| BigtownBittercupGreeting1b1 | Whatever you say. | Sad 50 | Oh! You... you... ... ...no one understands me... *sniff* | 6 |
| BigtownBittercupGreeting2 | Nice to meet you, Bittercup. | Neutral 50 | Finally! Someone who doesn't judge me! You know, the people here are just so quick to assume that they know everything about you. | 7 |
| Neutral 50 | I mean, like, just because I'm different doesn't mean that I'm some sort of freak, you know? It's like, hello, this world sucks! | 8 | ||
| Neutral 50 | No one gets that, they're all like "blah blah blah, what's wrong with that girl?". | 9 | ||
| BigtownBittercupGreeting2a | This seems like a strange thing to worry about right now. | Neutral 50 | That's what they always say. "Blah blah, Bittercup you need to pay attention when you're on patrol". Like, what, I'm supposed to stop slavers? | 10 |
| Neutral 50 | I mean, that's Flash's job, not mine. Besides, it doesn't matter, they're going to get us sooner or later. | 11 | ||
| Neutral 50 | Back in Lamplight, they always said that Bigtown was a safe place, that there's nothing to worry about when you leave. | 12 | ||
| BigtownBittercupGreeting2b | I know! No one understands me either! | Neutral 50 | God! It's so nice to have someone who understands! I mean, sure, when I left Little Lamplight, I was happy to be out of there. | 13 |
| Neutral 50 | I was dating Pappy then, you know. I got here and he was all like "Bigtown will be safe", but it wasn't! This place is always under attack! | 14 | ||
| Neutral 50 | But I don't date liars, so I dumped his ass and got with Flash. But that didn't last very long. Me and Timebomb were a thing for a while, too. | 15 | ||
| BigtownBittercupGreeting2c | Yeah... I have better things to do than talk fashion. | Neutral 50 | Hey, whatever. And here I thought you were cute. Guess you're just the same as everyone else here. | 16 |
| Neutral 50 | Anyway, did you want something or did you just come over here to judge me? | 17 | ||
| BigtownBittercupRel | I have something to say to you, Bittercup. | Surprise 25 | Oh, yeah, what is it? Um, not that I care what you think. {Eager to talk, but suddenly realizing that she is trying to act apathetic.} | 18 |
| BigtownBittercupRel1A | Why don't you seem to care about what's going on around here? | Neutral 50 | I dunno. What does it matter anyway? We're all going to be mutant chow eventually. | 19 |
| Anger 50 | And what do you know?! You wastelanders and your dirty clothes and roughed up faces! YOU look like a serial killer! | 20 | ||
| Neutral 50 | You're not ... uh, seeing anyone right now. Are you? | 21 | ||
| BigtownBittercupRel1B | If you don't mind me saying, you look different from everyone else. | Sad 15 | Really? I mean... good. No one wants to look like the boring slobs in this town, anyway. {Hurt at first at being called different, then acts proud of her individuality.} | 22 |
| Disgust 50 | Besides, if we're all going to die here, I at least want my corpse to look better than these inane wastelanders. | 23 | ||
| BigtownBittercupRel1C | I like your makeup. The pale-white really reflects the lighting. | Happy 50 | That's why I never go out during the day. The moon has such a better shine to it than the sun. | 24 |
| BigtownBittercupRel2A | Wait, what? Did you just hit on me? | Fear 50 | Oh, um, well. I need to get going, but come back and visit me sometime, okay? | 25 |
| BigtownBittercupRel2B | I'm not even going to tell you what's wrong with that question... | Fear 50 | Oh, um, well. I need to get going, but come back and visit me sometime, okay? | 26 |
| BigtownBittercupRel2C | Why, no. I'm not in any sort of relationship. Are you? | Fear 50 | Oh, um, well. I need to get going, but come back and visit me sometime, okay? | 27 |
| BigtownBittercupRel3A | I like corpses. Especially if they're full of holes... that I put in them. | Neutral 50 | You're not ... uh, seeing anyone right now. Are you? {Suddenly suggestive and flirtatious. } | 28 |
| BigtownBittercupRel3B | You need to set yourself apart from the mold. Then people will respect you. | Neutral 50 | You're not ... uh, seeing anyone right now. Are you? {Suddenly suggestive and flirtatious. } | 29 |
| BigtownBittercupRel3C | That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard. Survival goes before style. | Anger 50 | And what do you know?! You wastelanders and your dirty clothes and roughed up faces! YOU look like a serial killer! {Angry and judgmental.} | 30 |
| Neutral 50 | You're not ... uh, seeing anyone right now. Are you? {Suddenly suggestive and flirtatious. } | 31 | ||
| BigtownBittercupRel4A | I'm a night person myself. The darkness conceals my... activities. | Neutral 50 | You're not ... uh, seeing anyone right now. Are you? {Suddenly suggestive and flirtatious. } | 32 |
| BigtownBittercupRel4B | Moons are nice. The calm nights of the Wastes are a great time to relax. | Neutral 50 | You're not ... uh, seeing anyone right now. Are you? {Suddenly suggestive and flirtatious. } | 33 |
| BigtownBittercupRel4C | I was being sarcastic. That white makeup is like painting a target on your head. | Anger 50 | And what do you know?! You wastelanders and your dirty clothes and roughed up faces! YOU look like a serial killer! {Angry and judgmental.} | 34 |
| Neutral 50 | You're not ... uh, seeing anyone right now. Are you? {Suddenly suggestive and flirtatious. } | 35 | ||
| BigtownBittercupRelEND | Actually, never mind. There's something else I need to know. | Disgust 25 | Ugh, hurry up. I have poetry I need to write. Dark poetry. | 36 |
| BigtownTownBittercupandFlash | Who in this town haven't you dated... | Anger 50 | Don't you judge me! It's not my fault that the only guys in this town are liars and jerks! | 37 |
| Disgust 50 | "Oh, you can't break up with me, we're all going to die soon!" Well, duh, why do you think I'm breaking up with you! | 38 | ||
| Anger 100 | When I die, the last thing I want to worry about in my afterlife is breaking up with my once-alive boyfriend. Priorities! | 39 | ||
| BigtownTownServices Do you have any traders in town? Any doctors? |
What's there to do around here, Bittercup? | Neutral 50 | I wander around town to find chalk and makeup sometimes. Not like there's anyplace to buy stuff. {Bittercup is self-absorbed in her own, gothy world.} | 40 |
| What's there to do around here, Bittercup? | Neutral 50 | Red's clinic has some sharp knives and lighters. Too bad Red is always there, helping "these" people. {Bittercup wants to sound Gothic and horrifying, but she sounds over-dramatic.Emphasis "these people" on the second line, as if they are beneath her} | 41 | |
| BigtownTownWhatsWrong | This place looks like a ghost town. | Happy 25 | I wish it were. When I'm gone, I'll be sure to haunt this place ... <sigh> {Bittercup pleasantly sighs at the thought of ghosts and death.} | 42 |
| BigtownTownWhosWho Who lives here? |
You and the other people here don't seem to get along. | Anger 50 | Red and Kimba won't talk to me, just because I used to date Pappy and Flash! They're so jealous! | 43 |
| Anger 50 | Maybe that thing I had with Timebomb was wrong, but still! I don't need them! I'll do whatever I want! | 44 | ||
| GREETING | GREETING | Disgust 50 | I'm getting bored. I thought you were going to teach us something. | 45 |
| GREETING | Happy 100 | I think I'm going to build a little shrine to you. All I need is some incense sticks and candles. {grateful} | 46 | |
| GREETING | Surprise 50 | You came to visit! You'll never guess what I found out in the Wastes, when I was supposed to be patrolling. | 47 | |
| Neutral 50 | Here. This is for you. | 48 | ||
| GREETING | Neutral 50 | Oh, hi there! I'm Bittercup. | 49 | |
| GREETING | Neutral 50 | Oh, hey... I was just trying to think of a word that rhymes with "gloom"... hrm... | 50 | |
| GREETING | Neutral 50 | Yep. Still not dead. Unfortunately... | 51 | |
| GREETING | Neutral 50 | God, life is such a hassle, you know? | 52 | |
| MS01AboutRed | I'm looking for a woman named Red. Sticky promised me some caps... | Sad 50 | The Super Mutants took Red along with the others. She was the only person that really ever listened to me. {sad} | 53 |
| Sad 100 | Don't tell Sticky, though. He's liable to kill himself if he knew Red was gone. And that would conflict with my own suicide plans. {hiding concern for her friend with macabre goth chick musings.} | 54 | ||
| MS01QuestHook | Do you know where the Super Mutants took your friends? | Surprise 50 | There's a police station up there to the northeast or something. Bury our friends corpses if you find them. I've got enough ghosts haunting me. {grateful but trying to hide it} | 55 |
| What do you know about these Super Mutants? | Surprise 50 | Have you changed your mind? Are you going to rescue them?! I mean, not that I care or anything. They aren't really my friends anyway. {goth-chick avoiding a difficult topic} | 56 | |
| Sad 100 | Just walking corpses waiting to die like the rest of us. {macabre} | 57 | ||
| What do you know about these Super Mutants? | Surprise 50 | Ever wonder what it'd be like to slit your wrist? I watched someone die once. So I'm an expert on death. And so are many of my friends now. {goth-chick avoiding a difficult topic} | 58 | |
| Sad 50 | Now that Mutants took them. {macabre} | 59 | ||
| Surprise 50 | Unless someone can figure out how to rescue them. {hinting hopefully the player can rescue her friends} | 60 | ||
| MS01QuestHookA1 MS01QuestHook1 |
Wow, you need therapy. Look, do you know where your friends are? | Surprise 50 | The mutants took them north. To some old police station or something. Let's talk about something else... {goth chick} | 61 |
| MS01QuestHookA2 MS01QuestHook2 |
Hey, Earth to gloom girl Do you know where the Mutants took the villagers? | Fear 50 | They took them to Germantown. Probably to that old police station. Why you got a death wish? {trying to sound calm but really depressed and scared} | 62 |
| Sad 50 | Sometimes I want to die. But I'd rather do it poetically. Like slit my wrist under a full moon... surrounded by candles... in my pretty black dress. {goth chick trying to sound cool to cover up her depression and fear} | 63 | ||
| MS01QuestHookA3 MS01QuestHook3 |
Your friends are dead. Maybe you can channel them from the afterlife? Freak. | Anger 100 | Maybe. Or maybe I'll just cast a hex on you! Make your skin fall off and your hair turn into snakes... or something vile like that. {let down, depressed, and angry.} | 64 |
| MS01QuestHookA4 | I'll think about it, but I can't rescue your friends now. | Anger 100 | Well if you change your mind let me know, in the meantime I'll be preparing a nasty hex spell. When your skin starts peeling, you'll know why. {let down, depressed, and angry.} | 65 |
| MS01QuestHookB1 | Quit moping around. I'll rescue your friends! | Surprise 100 | Really? I mean... they aren't really my friends. I don't have any friends. I don't need any... but it would be nice to have them around again! {goth chick trying to seem cool but is really happy to have a hero} | 66 |
| MS01QuestHookB2 | I'll rescue your friends, but its going to cost you. | Anger 50 | Rescue whoever the hell you like, but they aren't my friends. I don't NEED friends. Though I'm sure someone will pay you if you succeed. {hurt and resentful } | 67 |

| BigTownGoodbye | BigTownGoodbye | Disgust 50 | Only your complete and utter lack of importance. {Bittercup is trying to project an outward appearance of apathy.} | 68 |
| BigTownGoodbye | Anger 50 | Jerk. I'm glad we broke up. {Nervous then angry. Bittercup is mad that her unspoken attempt at reassurance (insults) met with rejection (counter-insults).} | 69 | |

| HELLO | Disgust 50 | What are you supposed to actually do if you ever find something on patrol, huh? Scare them off with that rusty pistol of yours? {Secretly fishing for some reassurance that they're safe, but outwardly apathetic and accusatory.} | 76 | |
