Open-World Dialogue[]
Sixth Street[]
- Anby: Nicole asked me to buy some supplies for the next commission.
What did you buy?
- Anby: A gallon of Bomb Cola, a UAP Chips fun pack and some Ol' Captain Jerky, a supersize bottle of Nitro-Fuel, and some Rocket Popping candy...
...Maybe you should check with Nicole first.
Did you get the right shopping list?
- Anby: Hmm? But this shopping list is the one Nicole gave me.
- Anby: Celebrative snacks for a successful commission are Cunning Hares tradition.
- Anby: Nicole says, "Following me is the best strategy! You guys just start planning the after-party!"
- Anby: I trust her.
Then I won't bother you.

- Anby: Thanks for sharing your managerial wisdom, Proxy.
- Anby: I have a very serious question for you, Proxy.
- Anby: Have you ever eaten a burger with no meat or vegetables in the middle and instead has noodles?
- Anby: Nicole said it should be called a noodleburger...
- Anby: But a burger is a burger. How can it be a sandwich?
Hamburgers are bread with filling.
- Anby: I'm afraid I can't make sense of such a definition.
- Anby: A burger is a burger, not a sandwich. Mhm, that's right.
Fried noodle burgers are good too.
- Trust increase with Anby Demara
- Anby: Yeah. I think so too.
- Anby: But generally speaking, I prefer burgers with vegetables and meat.
- You have long and serious discussion with Anby about noodleburgers and hamburgers...
But it doesn't really matter what a food's called, so long as it's tasty, right?
- (Idle)
- Anby: Noodles, burgers, noodle burgers...
- Anby: A noodle bun is not a burger...
- (Talk to Anby again, optional)
- Anby: Burgers are the best food there is.

- Anby: Oh... Hi, Proxy. What a surprise to see you here.
- Anby: I'm currently debating whether I should buy the latest issue of Ridu Newsletter.
- Anby: But to be honest, I'm only interested in the entertainment section of the magazine...
- Anby: In fact, I just want to read the movie reviews in the entertainment section.
- Anby: If I buy the whole thing just for those few pages, it seems a bit wasteful...
- (The player will be offered two or three options from the following)
Buy it!
I'll buy it for you!
Don't buy it. It'll be waste.
Just read it at the newsstand and go.
How about buying it together with someone else?
- (If "Buy it!" is chosen)
- Anby: Well... Since I still have some money left this month, I should just buy it.
- Anby: After all, you can't really put a price on knowledge, and... I suppose a magazine counts as knowledge.
Absolutely, no doubt about it!
- Trust increase with Anby Demara
- Anby: Hm, I think so too.
I don't think they're completely the same...
- Anby: Really? Seems like magazines aren't your cup of tea.
- (If "I'll buy it for you!" is chosen)
- Significant Trust increase with Anby Demara
- Anby: Thank you for your offer.
- Anby: But no worries, I've still got some allowance left for the month, so I can handle it myself.
You didn't use up your allowance?
I thought you guys were tight on money.
- Anby: Hmm, it does sound a bit strange to say, but...
- Anby: The pay at the Cunning Hares is pretty decent.
- Anby: Nicole is quite generous in that regard.
- (If "Don't buy it. It'll be waste." is chosen)
- Anby: Hmm... Nicole said the same thing before.
- Anby: But the last issue of the Ridu Newsletter came with a raffle ticket, and the grand prize was a hundred thousand Dennies.
- Anby: She bought four copies of that issue.
I can imagine.
It sounds like the sort of thing Nicole would do
- Anby: Looks like this issue comes with a raffle ticket, too... It likely won't end up being a waste if I buy it, huh?
- (If "Just read it at the newsstand and go." is chosen)
- Anby: In fact, that has crossed my mind.
- Anby: But if I do that, do you think Howl will chase me off?
- Howl: Woof! Woof—!
- Anby: See, just like I figured, Howl's not on board with it.
You can actually understand that?
- Anby: Oh, you can't understand it?
I can't believe I can't understand that...
- Anby: Perhaps you and Howl just aren't familiar enough with one another? Buy a few more magazines, and you'll start getting the hang of how he talks.
- Anby: Considering Howl's stance... I suppose I'll just go ahead and buy the magazine.
- (If "How about buying it together with someone else?" is chosen)
- Trust increase with Anby Demara
- Anby: Buying it together with a friend actually sounds like a solid plan.
- Anby: That notion never even crossed my mind.
- Anby: Perhaps... that's a strategy only someone with a wealth of life experience like you could conjure.
Is that a compliment?
- Anby: Of course it's a compliment, it came straight from the heart.
Yup, that's me
- Anby: You really are amazing.
- Anby: But finding a friend might take a bit of time...
- Anby: I'll give it a try when the next issue drops.
- You chat with Anby about magazines to kill some time.
In the end, Anby buys the latest issue of the Ridu Newsletter... - Anby: Yeah... I took a quick look, and the film reviews in this issue seem interesting.
- Anby: Once I finish reading it, we can discuss together.
- (Idle)
- Anby: Hmm... If only there was a group buy for magazines...
- (Talk to Anby again, optional)
- Anby: If I propose a joint magazine order on Inter-Knot, will anyone join me?

- Anby: Hmm... I can't help but feel like something's missing...
- Anby: It's passable, but, just like I thought, still a little bland...
- Anby: Oh, what a coincidence. You're having noodles here, too.
The noodles here are good.
- Trust increase with Anby Demara
- Anby: Yeah. I think their noodles are good, too.
But what you just said...?
But you just said it was too bland...
- Anby: Ah... I was talking about a movie I just finished, not the noodles.
- Anby: It's passable as a commercial film, but the plot feels a little bland...
- Anby: It's like noodles that use only plain water for broth. No matter how extravagant the additional ingredients are, it won't be that good.
Anby sure is a strict when it comes to noodles...
- Anby: Ah... I wasn't talking about the noodles.
- Anby: General Chop's noodles are great, though not as good as burgers.
Is that really comparable?
- Anby: Noodles can't beat burgers.
I think so, too.
- Trust increase with Anby Demara
- Anby: Yeah, your taste is spot on.
Noodles are clearly better, right?
- Trust decrease with Anby Demara
- Anby: ...I don't see it that way. There's nothing in New Eridu that's better than hamburgers.
- Anby: When I said bland earlier, I wasn't referring to the noodles, but to the film I just finished watching.
- Anby: The plot was bland, like a burger without a patty, completely soulless.
Don't you like the noodles here?
- Anby: No... I really enjoy General Chop's noodles.
- Anby: Nicole often takes me here.
- Anby: When I mentioned bland earlier, I was talking about the film I just finished watching.
So, your critique was aimed at the film...
As expected of Anby...
- Trust increase with Anby Demara
- Anby: That film is no where near as richly flavored compared to the noodles I just had.
Is that even a fair comparison...?
- You run into Anby and chat with her to kill time, rating commercial films from multiple perspectives...
- Anby: Indeed. It seems we are of the same opinion on the quality of this film.
- Anby: Oh... Time sure flies. I should get going. I'll see you around.
- (Idle)
- Anby: Just like food, movies must be nicely seasoned to be good.
- (Talk to Anby again, optional)
- Anby: I still prefer movies with a stronger flavor.

Agent: Anby Demara
- Anby: Proxy, we meet again.
- Anby: By the way, I've got a question about movies that I've been meaning to ask you...
Ask away!
- Anby: Yeah, it's a recently popular movie.
- Anby: Even though it's a commercial film, the ending is just plain heartbreaking...
Not a fan of sad endings?
- Anby: It's not that I don't like them, it's just... painful.
Aren't tragic stories good, too?
- Anby: Tragedies are fine, it's just that this one didn't really fit...
There isn't a movie I don't know about.
- Anby: If someone else said that, I'd think they were just bragging.
- Anby: But since it's you...
- Anby: I trust you.
Trust me on this!
- Anby: Yes, I wanted to talk about a recent movie...
I'm just kidding...
- Trust decrease with Anby Demara
- Anby: I'm not a fan of that kind of joke.
- Anby: But... Are there really any movies in New Eridu you don't know?
It's more like you should be the one teaching me...
- Anby: No, when it comes to movies, you know far more than I.
- Anby: I've got some thoughts of my own, and I wanted to chat with you...
- Anby: Don't worry, I won't keep you too long.
I don't mind.
Feel free to take up as much of my time as you want!
- You bump into Anby and chat with her about movies for a bit before realizing that you accidentally let a lot of time slip by.
Anby gets really serious when the subject of movies comes up. - Anby: So, that's how you see it.
- Anby: It might not have a happy ending, but it does bring closure to the character's biggest regret.
- Anby: Well... You see it from a different angle, but it makes sense.
- Anby: Thanks, your take on the movie really has me thinking.
- Anby: Let's talk about it more next time we get the chance.
- Trust increase with Anby Demara
- (Idle)
- Anby: Perhaps more than the ending, audiences are more likely to remember the emotions they felt while watching...
- (Talk to Anby again, optional)
- Anby: But I still prefer a happy ending.

- Anby: What a coincidence, bumping into you here.
- Anby: Today's weather is perfect for drinking coffee.
- Anby: I'm getting Tin Master Special. What about you?
Tin Master Special, of course!
- Trust increase with Anby Demara
- Anby: Tin Master Special is my favorite, too.
Glacier Flat White!
- Anby: The crisp Glacier Flat White is pretty good too.
I'm not a fan of coffee.
- Anby: You don't like coffee? Then why do you come here to buy coffee...?
To wake up and stay alert!
To stay awake while working...
- Anby: Seems like you're pretty hard on yourself.
- Anby: I used to know someone who was incredibly tough on themselves... I often wonder how she's faring these days.
- Anby: Oh... Mr. Panda has finished his coffee.
Mr. Panda?
Are you talking about that panda doll over there?
- Anby: Yeah. Mr. Panda is there every time I come here for coffee.
- Anby: There is always a nice spread of food and drinks in front of him.
- Anby: According to documentaries about the old civilization, many would place a big doll opposite them when they dine alone.
- Anby: I guess Mr. Panda should work the same way, right?
They talk about these things in documentaries?
- Anby: Yes, while documentaries may not have as many ups and downs as movies, they are fascinating to me as well.
Do you need a doll too?
- Anby: Not necessary. Before meeting Nicole, I spent a long time alone...
- Anby: I've gotten used to it.
- Anby: I'd like to buy Mr. Panda a cup of coffee, too.
- Anby: Which one do you think I should buy?
Glacier Flat White
- Anby: Glacier Flat White? I think it's a good choice for Mr. Panda.
Lava Cappuccino
- Anby: Lava Cappuccino...? Er, it won't burn Mr. Panda, will it?
Instant Coffee
- Anby: There's no instant coffee here. Oh we shouldn't mention that word in the shop, or Tin Master will be annoyed.
- You have coffee with Anby.
It turns out Anby also buys coffee for Mr. Panda... - Anby: Thanks for having coffee with me today. I had a great time.
- Anby: Let's hang out again next time.
- (Idle)
- Anby: Will Mr. Panda like the coffee...
- (Talk to Anby again, optional)

- (Approach Anby)
- You see Anby by the roadside, so you walk over and greet her...
- Anby: Ah... You're here, too. What a coincidence.
- Anby: I wasn't zoning out. I was just playing the movie I just watched in my head.
- Anby: Nicole says that this is equal to watching two movies for the price of one ticket. It's good value for money.
Typical Nicole.
- Trust increase with Anby Demara
- Anby: Right. Nicole is very good at getting good deals.
- Anby: Of course, she's also good at spending.
Don't let Nicole's thought process influence you.
- Trust decrease with Anby Demara
- Anby: Why? I think Nicole is correct, and she's even taught me many handy tricks for saving money.
- Anby: But, for some reason, she's never able to save much money up...
- Anby: Would you like to try playing a movie in your head with me? It's actually quite entertaining.
- You space out with Anby for a while... Ah, no... You replay a movie inside your head.
- (Idle)
- Anby: Which movie should I revisit next time...?
- (Talk to Anby again, optional)
- Anby: An in-head movie is entertaining and can save money. Nicole is really something.

- Anby: Time is going fast, and now, I only have one-third of it left.
Am I disturbing you?
- Trust increase with Anby Demara
- Anby: No, chatting with you is also quite relaxing.
- Anby: This is just like when we were in the Hollow, everyone felt reassured with you around.
- You have a discussion with Anby about relaxation... Can she really unwind like this?
Wait, do you even schedule your break time?
- Anby: Yes, it's needed.
- Anby: Don't worry, it's not a rule Nicole imposes on her employees. It's just my habit.
- Anby: Back in the day, I would have to clock my bathroom breaks down to the second.
Let's unwind together.
- Significant Trust increase with Anby Demara
- Anby: Sure thing, as long as you're not bored.
- Anby: For me, this is exactly how to unwind...
- Anby: Just doing nothing.
- You unwind with Anby for a while...
She's so hard on herself, can she really unwind like this?
- Anby: Once I got used to it, I think small bouts of relaxation are quite nice.

- Queuing Office Worker: Ah, limited flavor burgers...
- Queuing Office Worker: Wait a minute. Is this... a cherry blossom-flavored burger?
- Queuing Female Student: Only three left in stock... Is this the charm of limited editions...?
- Anby just so happens to be waiting in the line as well, so you wave to her...
- Anby: You're here for shopping, too? What a coincidence.
- Anby: I didn't realize they were selling limited-edition burgers today...
- Anby: Sadly, I left my wallet at home.
- Anby: If I go back and collect it now, maybe I'll still make it back in time before the burgers are all gone...
It's my treat!
- Significant Trust increase with Anby Demara
- Anby: ...Thanks.
- Anby: But Nicole once said not to take others' favors lightly, as the things you get for free can sometimes end up costing you the most.
- Anby: So, I'll make a trip to fetch some cash and pay you back.
I've got this, you can pay me back later.
- Trust increase with Anby Demara
- Anby: Don't worry, I won't run a tab.
Do you really want to buy the cherry blossom-flavored burger?
- Anby: Hmm... even though cherry blossom-flavor does sound quite strange...
- Anby: But I stand by the notion that there's no such thing as a bad burger in this world.
Alright then, I'll help you buy it...
O' Brave one, I'll lend you some money
- Significant Trust increase with Anby Demara
- Anby: Thank you. Don't worry, I won't run a tab.
- Anby: Are you free tonight?
- Anby: I'll come to the video store later to return the money, is that okay?
I'm free.
I'll wait for you.
- Anby: Well, I'll see you in front of the video store tonight then.
- (Idle)
- Anby: Why do they even have limited editions for hamburgers? Some business practices are so strange.
- (Talk to Anby again, optional)
- Anby: I'll see you in front of the video store tonight then. Don't forget.
- (Anby will appear in front of Random Play in the following time of the day. If this interaction is missed, she will instead send a DM.)
- Anby: Here are the Dennies you lent me earlier today.
- Anby: I'm lucky I came across you, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to get the limited-edition burger.
You're too kind, Anby.
- Anby: Hmm... I just don't like the feeling of being in debt.
Nicole could learn from you.
- Anby: Nicole is actually quite trustworthy... in some ways.
- Anby: It's getting late, I should head off now.
- Anby: Thanks for your help today.
- (Receive
Denny ×200)
- (Idle)
- Anby: The cherry blossom-flavored burger... tastes surprisingly good. I owe you one.

- Anby: "By the way, Proxy, this is for you. I was sure to take it before we left, just in case."
- Anby hands over a small, unopened bottle of medication. It turns out to be anti-corruption serum!
- What a pleasant surprise! The risk of Ether corruption in Hollow Zero is no joke, and this anti-corruption serum will definitely come in handy!
- You're always so reliable, Anby.
- Use the anti-corruption serum.
- The anti-corruption serum works quickly, relieving the squad's pressure from Ether corruption.
Once again, you are impressed by Anby's preparedness and professionalism. - You're so reliable! As expected from a skilled member of the Cunning Hares!

- Anby: "I'll keep protecting you for the rest of the way."
- The anti-corruption serum works quickly, relieving the squad's pressure from Ether corruption.
