Name
Uh, yeah, but make sure it isn't actually me.
EntryBanterTullinaGiannaReply
Tullina...?
EntryBanterGiannaToTullina
Are we... are we friends?
EntryBanterGiannaToTullinaTwo
EntryBanterGiannaToTullinaThree
EntryBanterGiannaToTullinaThree
That reminds me! Tullina, I simply must know your workout regiment. Your core is to die for.
ExitBanterTullinaGiannaReply
A stellar performance! Five stars! Two thumbs up!
ExitBanterGiannaToTullina
Somewhere to be?
SelectionBanterTullinaGiannaReply
I've always kind of enjoyed them. Feels like I only really get to talk to you during these meetings.
SelectionBanterTullinaGiannaReplyTwo
... about...
SelectionBanterTullinaGiannaReplyThree
Hello everyone!
SelectionBanterGiannaToTullina
Plans look to be progressing nicely. Lady Kurai, while I'm here, has the Boss' schedule opened up at all?
SelectionBanterGiannaToKurai
Shame... Tullina, would you mind running lines with me later?
SelectionBanterGiannaToTullinaTwo
Oh...
SelectionBanterGiannaToTullinaThree
Hooray! Best friends!
SelectionBanterGiannaToTullinaFour
You've got quite the stature, Adiyah. Have you ever considered acting?
ExitBanterGiannaToAdiyah
Would you?
ExitBanterGiannaToAdiyahTwo
Oh... okay then...
ExitBanterGiannaToAdiyahThree
A star, as always.
ExitBanterAdiyahGiannaReply
Helps to know you're looking out for us, Tibbs.
EntryBanterTibbsGiannaReply
How's my scary voice? You there! I'll break you in half!
EntryBanterGiannaToTibbs
Thanks for keeping us all safe, big guy.
ExitBanterTibbsGiannaReply
We did it! Three cheers! Hip-hip?
ExitBanterGiannaToTibbs
Thanks anyway.
ExitBanterGiannaToTibbsTwo
Tibbie! Always love a job with you.
SelectionBanterTibbsGiannaReply
Uhh, yeah, that was... a mistake.
SelectionBanterTibbsGiannaReplyTwo
Well, let's just say he looked a lot more than he listened.
SelectionBanterTibbsGiannaReplyThree
Aha! Sailors...
SelectionBanterTibbsGiannaReplyFour
Fingers crossed this one goes better than our sewer scrape, eh, Tibbie?
SelectionBanterGiannaToTibbs
Did you ever find out where those busts were?
SelectionBanterGiannaToTibbsTwo
That was a lot of platinum!
SelectionBanterGiannaToTibbsThree
Could've bought an island with that platinum.
SelectionBanterGiannaToTibbsFour
Nothing Ku.
SelectionBanterGiannaToKuraiTwo
Improvisation! Lovely.
EntryBanterKarstGiannaReply
Stick to the script everyone.
EntryBanterGiannaToKarst
Count me in!
ExitBanterKarstGiannaReply
Take a bow, everyone!
ExitBanterGiannaToKarst
Keep it in your tights, Karst.
SelectionBanterKarstGiannaReply
That depends... Are you expecting something in return?
SelectionBanterKarstGiannaReplyTwo
I don't think Nenet is all that interested.
SelectionBanterKarstGiannaReplyThree
Oh Karst, you're such a good thief! You can take anything... but a hint.
SelectionBanterKarstGiannaReplyFour
I'm... not sure you used that word ri--
SelectionBanterKarstGiannaReplyFive
Oh! Were the roses from you?
SelectionBanterKarstGiannaReplySix
The toffees?
SelectionBanterKarstGiannaReplySeven
Aww, did you get me that beautiful gown!?
SelectionBanterKarstGiannaReplyEight
Sorry?
SelectionBanterKarstGiannaReplyNine
...Oh. Yes. ...Thank you.
SelectionBanterKarstGiannaReplyTen
I'm here. Isla, will we be seeing some new inventions for this job?
SelectionBanterGiannaToIsla
But you've tested them at least, right? ...Right? ...Isla?
SelectionBanterGiannaToIslaTwo
The ones that make people sick?
SelectionBanterIslaGiannaReply
What's the difference?
SelectionBanterIslaGiannaReplyTwo
Just what every man likes to see.
SelectionBanterIslaGiannaReplyThree
You know what we could really use...?
EntryBanterGiannaToIsla
Yes!
EntryBanterGiannaToIslaTwo
Or just a normal mirror! For makeup!
EntryBanterGiannaToIslaThree
Ah, but a watched rose never blossoms, my dear.
EntryBanterIslaGiannaReply
Thank you. But seriously, if you stare at me, we WILL be caught.
EntryBanterIslaGiannaReplyTwo
I have to admit, engineer, you make quite the spectacle yourself sometimes!
ExitBanterGiannaToIsla
I have so much to learn about science...
ExitBanterGiannaToIslaTwo
You know what? You might.
ExitBanterIslaGiannaReply
Normally I'd disapprove, but it's Niles, so...
ExitBanterIslaGiannaReplyTwo
Hey good lookin'. Huh. Most people recognise me. I'm Gianna. Worked a spell in the Chitus Theatre, back when you could leave your house without being followed by Templar secret police. I was Shavronne in {An Axiom Tragedy}. I played Dialla, the Gemling Queen, in {Purity Tales}, and the fair lady Merveil in {Daresso and Merveil}, for which I was very nearly nominated to receive a 'Tario.

No? Not a fan of the theatre, I suppose? That's-... That's fine. That act of my story has drawn to a close anyway, but I'm always looking for the next great role. Nothing's quite so thrilling as immersing oneself among the people, and seeing if you can, in fact, pass for the real deal.
Introduction
I wasn't exactly planning on a life of crime. Yes, most in my profession do end up begging or stealing, but my career was on the up and up, until I was accused of {Pecuniary Lust} and exiled.

It just so happens that the Boss, cultural elite that he is, saw me in a few shows. He must have noticed my ability to fully embody any role, to become not just the character, but the person. I'm told he was a practitioner of the performing arts himself, in his youth. Obviously, he has a keen eye for talent.

I'm dying to perform a dialogue with him. Good material is hard to come by 'round here, but I did find a piece by a Bestel floating in the foam. Not particularly engaging, and a frankly unhealthy focus on the female lead's figure in the stage direction, but it's something, at least.

Alas, Kurai maintains the Boss' schedule, and I'm told he is booked up indefinitely. Imagine having lucrative work for months to come! A performer can only dream...
The Boss
Just my luck! Of course you are put on my contract. Do you even know anything about the theatre? The cursed play? The one no performer should ever name, lest they end up consumed by the phantom that haunts it?

It's said that the play's author wrote it while high as an eagle on ergot. He didn't know, of course, and died upon penning the final word.

The play, whose name I shall not utter, is about a beautiful young lady who finds herself swept into a world beneath the sands of the Vastiri, where the dead have built a city of bones. She marries a statue, becomes the queen of this city, and then her skin peels off and a hundred little versions of her spill out. Completely nutty.

It's locked up with the rest of the works deemed distasteful by the Templar, and I simply must have it.
The Nameless Play
{Marilla turns to her beloved's unmoving face and speaks the blessed words:

Marilla: Two into one, one into many, to churn the world beneath the crashing dunes.

Marilla's body shatters like porcelain, each fragment becoming Marilla. Each new Marilla shatters again, and again, each fragment becomes whole. The stage is flooded by Marilla. All is Marilla. The statue rises and exits stage right.

Fin.}

Wow. I mean... wow. That was something! Right? That... that was something, right?

I think I might just stick to the unbanned works for a little while, actually. Thanks, though.
The Nameless Play
You're handling my contract again? I thought I specifically requested someone with a working understanding of the arts! Fine, fine. It's just a job. Well, I'm sure you've done the necessary reading, but I'm dying to gab a bit.

When I worked with the Theopolis Thespian Society, there was an old, old, {old} woman. I mean, at {least} forty. She was our seamstress. She created these costumes that looked just like the real thing. Blackguard uniforms, Templar outfits, you name it. Well, one day she vanished, but the costumes remained.

I want to get ahold of that old woman's costumes. They were just so... believable! With those, it'll be much easier to slip into a role undetected.
The Finest Costumes
I don't know how she did it. Each outfit so perfectly matches the original piece. It's almost as if-...what!? {Property of Templar Logistics Office}!? They're the genuine article! That woman stole real bloody uniforms! Well, I guess that explains why they always looked so genuine. It also explains why we didn't ever see her again.

Oh well, her loss is our gain!
The Finest Costumes
Gianna.
IntroductionVinderiGiannaReply
Performer. Actress.
IntroductionVinderiGiannaReplyTwo
We met when Vinderi was hired to do the pyrotechnics for a production. He set the curtains on fire, but no one died. I'm here to help you with this job. And other jobs, later. If you want.
IntroductionVinderiGiannaReplyThree
I think that covers it. Thanks, Vin.
IntroductionVinderiGiannaReplyFour
I know set dressing when I see it.
GiannaPerceptionOne
They're hiding something. Look.
GiannaPerceptionTwo
Those are props. Something's amiss.
GiannaPerceptionThree
Something about this doesn't ring true... Hmm.
GiannaPerceptionFour
It'd be easier to see with proper stage lighting...
GiannaPerceptionFive
All that time squinting at cue cards has trained me for this.
GiannaPerceptionSix
Back in line, soldier! I will inspect!
GiannaDeceptionOne
Did I say you could speak? Let me do this.
GiannaDeceptionTwo
Quiet. ... See? Nothing. I'll show you.
GiannaDeceptionThree
Are you drunk, soldier?! There's nothing on the other side.
GiannaDeceptionFour
Stay in formation! This is a drill!
GiannaDeceptionFive
Obey your orders! I'll take point!
GiannaDeceptionSix
I didn't hear nothin', but let's see.
GiannaSmugglerOne
Oi, keep it down. Gettin' each other spooked. Here, I'll prove it.
GiannaSmugglerTwo
Don't be so paranoid. Look, nothing's here...
GiannaSmugglerThree
You're just drunk, mate. Watch, it'll be empty.
GiannaSmugglerFour
Probably just the rats. Afraid of rats? Let's find out!
GiannaSmugglerFive
Nah, you're just losin' it. How could anything be here?
GiannaSmugglerSix
Ease off the elixir. Nothing is here. Observe.
GiannaCultistOne
The fumes are affecting your judgement. I shall prove it.
GiannaCultistTwo
Likely a mere apparition, but I'll make sure.
GiannaCultistThree
Perhaps you should rest. I'll check for you.
GiannaCultistFour
A hallucinatory phenomena. Anything you see is, as well.
GiannaCultistFive
Hearing things is a known side effect, but just to be sure...
GiannaCultistSix
Just like the stagehands taught me.
EngineeringGiannaOne
Let's hope this thing holds.
EngineeringGiannaTwo
Should be sturdy... enough.
EngineeringGiannaThree
Not the sort of catwalk I thought I'd be walking...
EngineeringGiannaFour
We used one of these backstage, 'til it took a lad's head off.
EngineeringGiannaFive
Drumroll please... But quietly.
EngineeringGiannaSix
My focus is elsewhere.
GiannaBusyOne
I need to finish this first.
GiannaBusyTwo
You can't rush a good performance.
GiannaBusyThree
Good work takes time.
GiannaBusyFour
Please try to be patient.
GiannaBusyFive
Protect your female lead.
GiannaInterruptedOne
Hey, you're hindering a great performance.
GiannaInterruptedTwo
So distracting and awful.
GiannaInterruptedThree
Mean. Mean mean mean.
GiannaInterruptedFour
We've got trouble.
GiannaCombatStartOne
We're just looking around, I swear!
GiannaCombatStartTwo
Exile? Need you for this!
GiannaCombatStartThree
Guards! Weapons up!
GiannaCombatStartFour
Enemies heading our way!
GiannaCombatStartFive
What an anticlimax.
GiannaCombatEndOne
Should've rehearsed more.
GiannaCombatEndTwo
Saw that ending coming a mile away.
GiannaCombatEndThree
What, no plot twist?
GiannaCombatEndFour
Always knew I'd knock 'em dead.
GiannaCombatEndFive
Oooh, that's soooo pretty.
GiannaLootOne
That gives me an idea for a character.
GiannaLootTwo
Really good find.
GiannaLootThree
Finders keepers, eh?
GiannaLootFour
You've a keen eye for pretty little things, don't you?
GiannaLootFive
Shh. We don't want an audience.
GiannaAlertOne
Keep it down. There's a lot left to do.
GiannaAlertTwo
Quiet, or we'll have to end early.
GiannaAlertThree
This is far more tense than I like.
GiannaAlertFour
That's our cue to leave!
GiannaAlarmOne
Head for the exit!
GiannaAlarmTwo
Make a run for it!
GiannaAlarmThree
Well, now we improvise!
GiannaSurpriseAlarmOne
So much for the plan! Run!
GiannaSurpriseAlarmTwo
That's not good! We need to rush!
GiannaSurpriseAlarmThree
And there, before her, was everything she wanted...
GiannaFinalRoomOne
They were so close, they could almost taste it.
GiannaFinalRoomTwo
In most plays, this is where I'd double-cross you. ... I-... I'm not going to double-cross you.
GiannaFinalRoomThree
This is what we're here for. Go on.
GiannaFinalRoomFour
Well? Don't keep the audience waiting!
GiannaFinalRoomFive
This is the part where you would double-cross me. Please don't.
GiannaObjectiveOne
Now all that's left is to head for the exit.
GiannaObjectiveTwo
That's a relief. I always expect a trap for some reason.
GiannaObjectiveThree
People have strange taste, don't you think?
GiannaObjectiveFour
Ladies and gentlemen, the show's about to begin.
GiannaEntryBanterOne
Stay on script and hit your marks.
GiannaEntryBanterTwo
Take a deep breath before we head in. Might be your last.
GiannaEntryBanterThree
Focus. Watch your breath and move with caution.
GiannaEntryBanterFour
Take your time. This is just the warmup act.
GiannaEntryBanterFive
Aaaaand scene!
GiannaExitBanterOne
Take a BOW! That was phenomenal!
GiannaExitBanterTwo
How about a bloody round of applause, eh?
GiannaExitBanterThree
By Innocence, I do love a happy ending.
GiannaExitBanterFour
Faultless! Stunning! An incredible performance! And you were also very good!
GiannaExitBanterFive
Wait, what's that!?
GiannaPerceptionLoudOne
Look! There! No, there!
GiannaPerceptionLoudTwo
They've tried to hide something!
GiannaPerceptionLoudThree
I know there's something wrong here, just need a bit of time!
GiannaPerceptionLoudFour
A lot of work went into hiding something here!
GiannaPerceptionLoudFive
Some convincing fakes here! What are they hiding!?
GiannaPerceptionLoudSix
Open it! Let them through! Oh, I'll do it!
GiannaDeceptionLoudOne
Stand back! I'll take them on single handedly!
GiannaDeceptionLoudTwo
Make way! I must let the reinforcements in!
GiannaDeceptionLoudThree
Give passage! I have a plan!
GiannaDeceptionLoudFour
They're with us!
GiannaDeceptionLoudFive
I'll open the passage, and you take them alive!
GiannaDeceptionLoudSix
We'll get 'em in here, lads!
GiannaSmugglerOneCopy
Wait, ain't they with us!? They is, right!?
GiannaSmugglerTwoCopy
Can't get 'em from this side! Pop 'er open!
GiannaSmugglerThreeCopy
If we let 'em through, they'll be too confused to fight!
GiannaSmugglerFourCopy
Oi, boss wants us to open the door!
GiannaSmugglerFiveCopy
I ain't scared, mate! I'm opening it!
GiannaSmugglerSixCopy
Allow passage! We shall claim their ichors!
GiannaCultistOneCopy
They beg to be sacrificed! I say we let them!
GiannaCultistTwoCopy
Their flesh demands passage! We must obey!
GiannaCultistThreeCopy
We must unify! Open the gate!
GiannaCultistFourCopy
Separation is trickery! Open the way!
GiannaCultistFiveCopy
They test our faith! Let faith shield you!
GiannaCultistSixCopy
Bridge going up!
GiannaEngineerLoudOne
Setting up a crossing!
GiannaEngineerLoudTwo
Bridging the gap!
GiannaEngineerLoudThree
We've got to get across as soon as it's ready!
GiannaEngineerLoudFour
If this breaks, we'll improvise!
GiannaEngineerLoudFive
This sort of thing always breaks when everyone's watching!
GiannaEngineerLoudSix
I can play a thousand roles, but not at once!
GiannaBusyLoudOne
You can't rush perfection!
GiannaBusyLoudTwo
Can you see I'm in the middle of something!?
GiannaBusyLoudThree
Bad timing! Really bad timing!
GiannaBusyLoudFour
I'm busy right now!
GiannaBusyLoudFive
I need an understudy!
GiannaInterruptedLoudOne
Out of my face! Now!
GiannaInterruptedLoudTwo
Do something or this will take forever!
GiannaInterruptedLoudThree
Too rough! Far too rough!
GiannaInterruptedLoudFour
Security incoming!
GiannaCombatStartLoudOne
Let us through, or face your death!
GiannaCombatStartLoudTwo
This is your final scene!
GiannaCombatStartLoudThree
They just keep coming!
GiannaCombatStartLoudFour
Leave us alone!
GiannaCombatStartLoudFive
No second act!
GiannaCombatEndLoudOne
It's like they forget they're the villains! Wait... Are they the villains? No, yeah, they're the villains.
GiannaCombatEndLoudTwo
Don't stop moving!
GiannaCombatEndLoudThree
Keep it up, Exile!
GiannaCombatEndLoudFour
Spectacular! Keep going!
GiannaCombatEndLoudFive
Make sure that's not a posthumous award!
GiannaLootLoudOne
Great find, but shouldn't we be leaving!?
GiannaLootLoudTwo
Come on, greedy-guts!
GiannaLootLoudThree
Don't be blinded by all that glitters!
GiannaLootLoudFour
Wrap it up! I don't want this to be my final role!
GiannaLootLoudFive
There it is! Hurry!
GiannaFinalRoomLoudOne
It's right there! Grab it!
GiannaFinalRoomLoudTwo
Get it! I can't handle the suspense!
GiannaFinalRoomLoudThree
It's there! Grab it while we can!
GiannaFinalRoomLoudFour
We're so close! The tension is palpable!
GiannaFinalRoomLoudFive
Perfect! Now for the climax!
GiannaObjectiveLoudOne
Good! Now rush to the exit!
GiannaObjectiveLoudTwo
No time for accolades! Go!
GiannaObjectiveLoudThree
Hope you're not waiting for applause!
GiannaObjectiveLoudFour
Vinderi, ever thought about a keg that makes a lot of smoke but no explosion?
EntryBanterGiannaToVinderi
They say all the world's a stage...
EntryBanterGiannaToNenet
Job first, joking around afterwards.
EntryBanterGiannaToNiles
Niles! I said save it for later!
EntryBanterGiannaToNilesTwo
Break a leg, everyone!
EntryBanterGiannaToHuck
Oh, the Wilted Quill? Yeah, burnt down.
EntryBanterVinderiGiannaReply
Yeah, but, acting... that endures. People care about good acting. The universe cares about good acting.
EntryBanterNenetGiannaReply
Good, I was planning to hold you responsible too.
EntryBanterNilesGiannaReply
Actually, I auditioned! ... and I got the role.
EntryBanterHuckGiannaReply
Encore! Encore!
ExitBanterGiannaToVinderi
A performance worthy of an audience! Do they have plays where you're from Nenet?
ExitBanterGiannaToNenet
How do you stay entertained?
ExitBanterGiannaToNenetTwo
That went so well I could kiss someone!
ExitBanterGiannaToNiles
Oh, but Niles, what if I accidentally turn you into a prince? I sure would miss you.
ExitBanterGiannaToNilesTwo
Did you see me in there? Damn, I'm good.
ExitBanterGiannaToHuck
Honestly? That went too smoothly. If one of us had died, that would have been dramatic!
ExitBanterVinderiGiannaReply
Five stars. The thumbs are a different thing.
ExitBanterNenetGiannaReply
({Laughs}) I can't remember the last time I laughed that hard! Thanks Niles!
ExitBanterNilesGianaReply
Huh!? We did great!
ExitBanterHuckGianaReply
Okay. Okay.
ExitBanterHuckGianaReplyTwo
Always nice to be invited!
SelectionBanterKuraiToGianna
Say, before we get too deep into this, do you think my role could use an accent?
SelectionBanterKuraiToGiannaTwo
Oh! What about a limp? Or an eyepatch!
SelectionBanterKuraiToGiannaThree
I'm Big Toe Gren, Captain of the Salty Hound.
SelectionBanterKuraiToGiannaFour
Your star has arrived.
SelectionBanterGiannaToVinderi
No, no! Vin! Me! I mean me!
SelectionBanterGiannaToVinderiTwo
What did you think was happening?
SelectionBanterGiannaToVinderiThree
Hello all! Did I miss anything important?
SelectionBanterGiannaToNenet
Oh. Can you catch me up?
SelectionBanterGiannaToNenetTwo
... Oh, is that it?
SelectionBanterGiannaToNenetThree
Well, uh, thank you Nenet. Very concise.
SelectionBanterGiannaToNenetFour
How are you?
SelectionBanterNilesGiannaReplyTwo
Not quite...
SelectionBanterNilesGiannaReplyThree
Almost there...
SelectionBanterNilesGiannaReplyFour
There it is.
SelectionBanterNilesGiannaReplyFive
So wonderful.
SelectionBanterNilesGiannaReplySix

Ah, of course.

No, wait, you're meant to be here. We're planning a heist!
SelectionBanterVinderiGiannaReply
What'd you have on?
SelectionBanterVinderiGiannaReplyTwo
