the end where you ask your final questions.
This is a listing of every "entry" in a given game conversation as scraped from the game files. Entries often contain written dialogue, as well as conditional logic governing their appearance to the player. They also link to other entries, sometimes automatically and sometimes through player action. This page is best used to search for a specific word or phrase, as following the links in this format can be difficult. For an experience that better accommodates the branching structure of these conversations, see the corresponding interactive page.

|
|
7 | Jean Vicquemare | "Even the insect -- I don't care. But you're an *alcoholic*. And you've been drinking -- again. I won't let my life unravel because of this." |
|
|
8 | Judit Minot | "He has... That's true." |
|
|
9 | Trant Heidelstam | "It's tough. One of the toughest addictions to overcome. Comparable *only* to heavy synthetic opiates. Even morphine is easier to kick than alcohol -- statistically. The odds are against him. Especially at his age." |

11 | Jean Vicquemare | "Okay, so he's stayed clear for what? A week?" He sighs. |

|
12 | Electrochemistry | No. You can figure it out. *Replace* it! Replace the alcohol with amphetamine. Or GBL! Fuck it -- morphine! Graffito removal agent! Anything. It'll buy you time. All you need is time. |
|
|
13 | Volition | No. You *can* stop. Just wade through the hell. Month after month. Year after year -- you against the nothingness. It's possible, because *time* is possible. |
|
|
14 | Conceptualization | If you declare your life forfeit; if you declare yourself a doomed man... A doomed man does not need comfort. From *anything*. He can go on without drink, or help. Like a clockwork. |

22 | Perception (Sight) | Think! You can *detect*. In Jamrock. Boogie Street. Couron. Le Royaume, underground. Coal City. On the 8/81-- it will all be yours to sieve through when the last snow has melted. |
|
|
23 | Shivers | Stop and you can go to the Burnt Out Quarter. And meet me there -- wafting above the burnt ruins. Like the smell of caramel -- Le Retour is waiting. |
|
|
24 | Reaction Speed | The houses, the streets, the motorways singing. Hold on. This is a fight we can *win*. |
