 _self_say Go on, beggar. If you don't have any coin, you don't eat. 
 _partner_say As you wish, I got some bread from the nuns this morning. 
 _self_say I must talk to them about that. You maggots will never learn if they just keep feeding you. 
 _partner_say If you say so, perhaps you could have more tact in the way you speak however. 
 _self_emote laugh 
 _self_say Tact! What consequence is it? Will you teach me of your superior morality, beggar? 
 _partner_say It is shown simply by the way you speak to others when you know little to nothing of their lives. 
 _self_emote ponder 
 _self_say Perhaps you're right. Tell me, how did you come into this life. 
 _partner_say Well you see my mother was a prostitute and died of a venereal disease shortly following childbirth. So I get the joy of living in the woods. 
 _self_say That is unfortunate. How are the woods this time of year? 
 _partner_say Well fairly cold if I am to be honest, whats the deal with this house on stilts anyhow? 
 _self_say It is a private residence that I cook for once a week. The adore my walnut crusted chicken. 
 _partner_say Walnuts you say, have you tried other forms of nuts as well? 
 _self_emote ponder 
 _self_say Hmmm, I've never considered it. Have you some ideas?
