Your lost badge.

How to use this page:

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.

Column definitions:
  • ID: a numerical index for the entry within this conversation.
  • Character: the character speaking or acting.
  • Dialogue: prose containing spoken dialogue and other description.
  • Conditions: logical checks governing this entry appearing or occurring.
  • Links: entries that might follow this one, depending on conditions and player choice. Most links are internal to this conversation, external links to other conversations are marked with the format (conversation ID, entry ID).

26 BADGE: LTN-2JFR DU BOIS It looks like you had quite the charming face -- way back then. Your hair is brown and slightly curly, your eyes seem more clear somehow.

27 Kim Kitsuragi "'Harrier,' that's long for 'Harry'. So you *are* Harry..." He thinks. "Evrart was half right. Probably not a lot of people know your full name. Whoever told him you're Harry Du Bois didn't."

44 BADGE: LTN-2JFR DU BOIS The badge in your hands shines as you rotate it, catching light. You see lines of information on it. And a shining watermark.

  • 118
46 Esprit de Corps You should look at the badge when Lieutenant Kitsuragi is around -- he could help you make sense of all this.
  • 59
47 BADGE: LTN-2JFR DU BOIS The number shows that this badge belongs to an officer of the 41st precinct.
  • 60
48 Kim Kitsuragi "Yes. It's the designation of your Precinct. Forty-one. Like mine says Fifty-seven. The 57th is mostly Industrial Harbour. A lot of asphalt. The 41st is..." He stops.
  • 189
49 BADGE: LTN-2JFR DU BOIS The badge was issued roughly four months ago.
  • 181
50 Kim Kitsuragi "Four months ago -- I'm guessing that's when you were promoted to the rank of lieutenant double-yefreitor."
  • 173
51 Inland Empire A lot can happen in four months. Especially in winter. The winters are never easy on you, of that you are sure.

52 You "Serial: REV12-62-05-JAM41..."

  • 72
75 Kim Kitsuragi "It does seem to be a rather *special* relationship the two of you have forged, yes, lieutenant double-yefreitor."
  • 72
76 Kim Kitsuragi "Décomptage is the hierarchical system employed by the Revachol Citizens Militia. It means counting down to twos."
  • 126
77 You "But... I don't *want* to be Harrier Du Bois." (Don't accept it.)
  • 78
78 Kim Kitsuragi "Why? It's a cool name. I like it." He shrugs. "Besides, you're Harry anyway. No one's ever called *Harrier*."
  • 112
79 You "Harrier Du Bois it is, then." (Accept it.)
  • 80
80 Kim Kitsuragi "Pleased to make your acquaintance, Harrier Du Bois."

91 You How old?
  • 92
92 BADGE: LTN-2JFR DU BOIS Eight, maybe ten years. The guy in the picture is rather good looking. He's got a nice haircut and is distinctly lacking in massive sideburns.
  • 93
93 You And he's winking? Why?
  • 94
94 BADGE: LTN-2JFR DU BOIS Why do you think? His face is already contorted by the Expression. Although it looks less grotesque on him than it does on you now.
  • 21
95 Pain Threshold It looks better on him because he isn't in as much *pain* while producing it as you are now. Although there's already a hint of that pain, certainly.

118 You "What is a 'lieutenant double-yefreitor?'"
  • 119
119 Kim Kitsuragi "The lieutenant is a rank above sergeant and below captain. It's the highest rank in the RCM that still does field work. I am a lieutenant."
  • 120
120 You "And double-yefreitor?"
  • 121
121 Kim Kitsuragi "The title of yefreitor is added to your rank when you decline a promotion to a higher rank -- in your case, captain," the lieutenant explains. "You have declined twice. Thus you're double-yefreitor."
  • 122
122 You "Declined?"
  • 123
123 Kim Kitsuragi "There are many reasons one would do this. The rank above you in your precinct's *décomptage* might be taken. Or sometimes promoted officers do not *want* to replace their superiors -- out of respect."
  • 124
124 Kim Kitsuragi "And sometimes," he continues, "they just prefer the type of police work available to their current rank -- in your case, lieutenant."

126 Encyclopedia The countdown is modelled after the dual-leadership system employed by the Left during the Revolution. Which in turn was developed by last century experimental psychologists in the University of Koenigstein.
  • 127
127 Kim Kitsuragi "The lowest rank is junior officer -- usually teenagers. Then there are the patrol officers. Then sergeants, lieutenants, and then a captain. That's basically it, except for a few kinks."
  • 128
128 You "What kinks?"
  • 129
129 Kim Kitsuragi "Kinks like satellite-officers and the additional yefreitor rank I already explained."
  • 172
130 You "Wait -- satellite-officers?"
  • 134
