â i was shattered. i lost everything. â â i warned you not to take me lightly. â â weâre partners, arenât we? â â ever since weâve met, youâve been disobedient and rude. â â take suffering as your companion, and unease and fear as friends. if you do, darkness will become light. â â itâs a cold world out there. youâve gotta learn to trust folks. â â as you stand before me now, youâre all desperation and bravado. that is not true bravery. â â you canât change your past and you canât change who you were. you can only decide who youâre going to be. â â resentment is a trap of the heart into which everyone falls. â â you donât look well. are you ill? â â you were born into life with a destiny. you cannot run away from that. â â you carry a smouldering darkness inside you. â â itâs considered impolite not to give your all in a fight. â â at dusk and dawnâŚitâs easy for all sorts of things to sneak by. â â since that day, so much has changed for me. â â iâm sorry. itâs been hard, huh? â â a true hero must shoulder a heavy responsibility. â â stay calm. move cautiously and remain vigilant. â â one more time. try telling the truth. â â why keep fighting until youâre just a broken wreck? â â if we start a fight, we must be ready to hit back. â â in the end, itâs easier just to be selfish. â â i was lost without you. i was lonely. â â why do i so often taste this sense of loss? â â i think both our journeys are pointing to the same place. â â power does not inhabit a blade without bravery. â â did you hear something? like the cry of a beast⌠â â whatâs wrong? if youâre too weak, then just leave. â â what is strength? is it displays of power mocking the weak? destroying beauty simply to satisfy your greed? â â you get too worked up over things. â â easy for you to say. iâm the one getting beat up. â â i donât need thanks. i didnât do it for you. â â depending on your attitudeâŚi might be able to help. â â if you donât do as i say, iâll take your arm off. â â as leader, i will not choose the path of pain and death for my people. i must protect them. â â strength isnât about powerâŚitâs about being brave. â â you have good eyes. the eyes of a proud beast. â â if the need arises, i will not hesitate to pick up a sword and fight. â â i guessed you had a secret past.  people can try to hide it, but nature shows through. â â i was lying when i said iâd never held a sword.â â thereâs no time for sentimentality. â â if someone comes in who knows about your past, iâll protect you if they try to hurt you. â â is there something strange about me? â â be carefulâŚthere have been monsters around here lately. â â chooseâŚsurrender or die. â â when i feel uneasy or afraid i just think: âthis is my missionâ. â â donât take me for nothing more than a fine doll good only for decoration. â â iâm nothing more than dirt. iâm not worth all that effort. â â why do you think weâre any safer here? â â donât die on me now. â â ha! even you have a good idea sometimes. â â i fought through all kinds of monsters to get hereâŚand i survived. â â iâve spent so long looking for you! iâm so glad youâre safe. â â people are always hovering over meâŚand itâs so suffocating! â â some detours lead to unexpected good luck. â â you say whatever you thinkâŚiâve never done that. â â there is no greater joy than helping a friend. â â what do you mean ânever mindâ? â â these days such peaceful travels are rare indeed. â â wildly rushing into danger isnât courage. â â didnât you say thereâs something you need to do, no matter what it takes? â â i sense unprecedented danger approaching. â â how do you feel now, looking back upon yourself at that time? â â as usual, youâre a wimp. â â resentment is dangerous. it comes in through the slightest crack in your heart. â â iâd go to the ends of the earth for you. â â it really hasnât been that long, but youâve grown into a fine man. â â now is the time for us to take back all that was stolen. â â one thingâs certain â those arenât human. â â what do you fight to protect? answer. â â i wish you wouldnât do such dangerous things. â â if you got hurt due to my mistakesâŚi donât think i could live with that. â â why would you do all thatâŚwhen weâve only just met? â â itâs a pretty name. perfect for you. â â once your wounds heal, youâll need to leave right away. â â the hero on his knees! quite a sight. â â how does it feel to be so strong? quite a rush, isnât it? â â youâre all puffed up on your own arroganceâŚdrunk on your own pride. â â i once wondered how good you areâŚnow i see youâre really skilled. â â iâm not physically strong like youâŚbut my wits, brains and analysis can be helpful. â â donât say you canât accept that this is the end. â â you just want to satisfy your own ambition and lust for power. â â itâll be all right because weâre together. â â why would you leave me at a time like this? â â for the first time i feel like iâm overflowing with incredible power. â â thereâs no time for doubt. you are the chosen one. â â your problem is that you demand absolute perfection. â â there is no easy path. but you can definitely overcome it. â â iâm so very sorry. i broke my promise. i hurt you. â â thatâs the spirit. hate me more. only then will this fight be worthwhile. â â i thought you were dead. â â wellâŚ? say something. or has my beauty left you speechless? â â i never forgot you. not for one moment. â â sorry for killing the mood. â â light and shadow are two sides of the same coin. one cannot exist without the other. â â if you desire somethingâŚthen that is my desire too. â â who says iâm afraid of you? â â your weapon is little better than a toy. â â all that awaits you is despair. â â iâve done the unforgivable. i betrayed you. â â iâm here to repay you for what youâve done. â â since iâve met you, weâve travelled a long wayâŚand a lot has happened. â â are you on a journey of self-discovery? â â that was a great strike. if i was a hair slower, youâd have gutted me. â â when i was young, i wanted to be a hero. â â your struggle is futile. â â as you can see, i know how to fight. â â my hatred toward you will not be satisfied by merely killing you once or twice. â â youâve been through a lot. â â whose side are you on? light or shadow? â â if you run then weâre done for! fight to survive! â â iâm not strong enough. not good enough. â â i must crush your bones, rip out your organs and relish your lingering cries of pain. â â that was close, huh? â â rest now. you donât have to fight any more. â â i bear this sword so i can protect my home in times like this. â
please note, aoife never wanted to be a hero.

@cosmikal / lae'zel: â the worst is still ahead of us. we must be strong. â
aoife offered up a low groan as she hung her head. â i'm tired of being strong. my arms hurt. my feet may be there but i can't feel them. i need someone to carry me. â the bard whined a little. she was half joking. she didn't want someone to carry her. that seemed like a bit too much, but she was tired.
constant investigating, fighting, trying not to die... she just wasn't built for all that excitement, but she knew she would have to carry on, like a good little soldier because more than just her stood in the balance.
â how do you do it? how do you keep going? you never seem tired. you never complain about being tired or hurt. how? what secrets are you hiding and would you care to share them with the group because i'm exhausted. â

A TENTATIVE , EXPLORATORY KISS BETWEEN FRIENDS . âł smoochies !! ( accepting ) / @radiantbrd
THE EVENING WANES; thereâs been good food, decent wine ( or, more pointedly, wine that didnât come out of a suspicious cellar that had likely been abandoned for months ), and easy conversation. At times, joined by others ââ thereâs been a bit more levity tonight, brought about by small victories and small steps forward. These days, thatâs all they can ask. Â
Itâs not precisely planned. It just kind of happens ââ a lull in conversation, that way their eyes meet: a linger, a little flood of something warm that he canât tell is just a little too much wine or something else entirely. Either way, he smiles ââ and he leans in: slow, a little tentative, giving far too many escape routes. But then ââ itâs warm, soft, lingering.Â
He tastes faintly of wine, red and heady, and when it breaks he slips back just a fraction, though the smile doesnât fade. â I hope Iâm not being presumptuous. â A pause, and the smile grows just a little; his voice stays quiet, just between the two. â Though I suppose thatâs something I could have said before, shouldnât I. â
cheeks flush and a sudden warmth washed over her face as gale slipped back a little. there was a soft chuckle as she bit the bottom of her lip gently, tasting the wine left behind.
she wasn't sure what led him to kiss her ( heat of the moment or the wine, she could not tell ) but she was not about to complain. it was a pleasant surprise and one to add just a bit more joy to a day that had already gone as smoothly as it had. like a little cherry on top or the perfect little bow on a present.
aoife's cheeks remained a soft pink as she gave the wizard a smile. â no, no. it's fine. â she reassured. â it was nice. â she took her gaze off him as she looked down, a sense of embarrassment flooding over her. â nice like you're a good kisser. i mean. i just â â aoife found herself lost for words, which did not happen often. she shuffled her feet before focusing her gaze back on gale. â i'm sorry. uhm, i'm going to get more wine. want some? â
she protec, she attac, but most importantly... she cannot wait to kill orin.

[ AURELIEN ROLLS A 1! CRITICAL FAILURE! ] the first of the seldarine, the father of all elves ââ blessed corellon larenthian, a god of many titles and boundless gifts. but one gift he did not bestow upon the loyal cleric was the gift of the tongue. as composed and well-spoken he was... to lie? it was against his very nature. and yet, here he was out of necessity. his face contorts strangely, a teethy smile that showed too much of his pink gums ( was he in pain? it looked as if he was in pain ). â yes... i am a noble... of... baldur's gate! â whose decision was it to have aurelien do the talking..?
the smile aoife held on her face quickly faded as she turned her gaze toward the elf, her mouth slightly agape at the poor delivery of his lie. she was honestly surprised and a bit horrified he had lied so terribly. the bard was unsure if she could salvage his lie, but she figured it could be worth the shot. at best, she deceives the guard and they can carry on, and at worst, she fails and they end up in jail ( or a fight ).
it took only a split second for aoife to regain composure, her ever-bright smile on her lips as she stepped forward to address the guard. â forgive him. he gets a little self-conscious. it happens to the best of us. â she spoke. â it's true though. he is a noble of baldur's gate. look at him, so noble, and i am his humble advisor. i do most of his talking, as you saw how well he did it himself. i have tried to get him to try and be more talkative with others, but the shyness. really dampens his natural charm. â
she peeked over at aurelien before clearing her throat. â so if you don't mind, â her gaze focused back on the guard as she stepped past him, â we must really be getting on. important meetings and aristocratic stuff. time is money and money isn't free! â she gave a subtle gesture for the elf to follow her as she hurried away from the guard, praying that he would just wave them off.

ballroom dialogue prompts.   below, you can find dialogue taken from ballroom scenes or scenes revolving around the topic from period dramas, for all your fancy dress and intimacy needs. as not all of these are specifically about dancing, i would recommend adding to the end a note that this is the sentence meme youâre sending it for!
â is this what you [origin/nationality/family] call dancing?  â
â Â then i will introduce you to some pretty young noblemen instead. Â â
â Â allow him his fancy. Â â
â Â but no warfare tonight, i trust. Â â
â Â oh, dear me, iâm no dancer, let me find a better partner for you. Â â
â Â i can think of nothing less appealing than an evening of watching other people dance. Â â
â Â will you please come and set an example for your companions? Â â
â Â would you take a drink with me? Â â
â Â i may not be [name], but may i dance with you? Â â
â Â may i have a waltz? Â â
â Â have some more wine, my wine. Â â
â take a dance in the garden, my garden. â
â Â the pretty young noblewomen of [place/family] would delight to have you paw at them. Â â
â  but if i were to become a woman with half your grace and beauty, [name]⌠i would be proud and happy.  â
â  you look⌠as lovely as ever, [name].  â
â Â itâs a relaxation to dance with you, [name]. Â â
â Â iâll save you the third dance just because itâs your first ball. Â â
â Â he has the strength of an ox. and sadly the grace of an ox as well. Â â
â Â the whole party is here to help my father prepare for the party. Â â
â Â you and your idiot matchmaking. Â â
â Â you have shown yourself to be a fine dancer, despite all your protests. Â â
â Â do you not dance, mr. [name]? Â â
â Â though i am an old married man, i would enjoy dancing with [you/name]. Â â
â Â will you stay for the [name/celebration] ball, [name]? Â â
â Â oh, isnât this room just like a fairyland? Â â
â Â tonight is for celebrations. Â â
â  how do you like my hair? i did it myself.  â
â Â oh, i had the most wonderful time! Â it was out of a dreamâ Â â
â Â where do you want to be taken? Â â
â Â if i may have the pleasure, will you join me in a [dance]? Â â
â Â she hates us both. hardly a reason for courtship, surely. Â â
â Â you fear for the constancy of your loverâs affections? Â â
â Â put on your best finery, [name]. your most beautiful dress. youâre coming with me. Â â
â Â itâs the last dance. Â â
â Â there is a response to such an insult. but it would not be appropriate here. Â â
â Â if i may be so bold, i would ask for your advice. Â â
â Â i would dance with you, if you will ask me. Â â
â Â sprezzatura. i have heard it means â the effortless display of grace â. Â â
â Â i see no evidence of sprezzatura. Â â
â Â i care nothing for your pretty young noblewomen. Â â
â Â if you will be my partner, [name]. Â â
â Â it would not be improper for us to dance. Â â
â Â [name] told me she does not mean to dance this evening, but i do see a young lady whom i should like to see dancing. Â â
â Â i dare say, but if iâm not to dance with you, iâm getting out of this operetta and going home. Â â
â Â i come with some admirable qualities. Â â
â Â [name] looks quite entrancing, does she not? Â â
