Duke (SoSFoMT)/Quotes

Greetings

 * First Meeting: "Hm? Who're you? Huh. So you're the new caretaker of that farm? I'm Duke. Nice to meet you."
 * "Hey. If you're here buying something, Manna's your go-to-gal... You know, my wife?"
 * "Hey, [Player]. Fancy having a glass of my favorite libation with me sometime?"
 * Outside:"Hey there, [Player]. If you want to buy something to drink, the house is thataway. Oh, and if you DO end up going there, could you please keep Manna company for awhile? Please and thanks."
 * "Hey, [Player].. What? There something on my face? I didn't drink at all today, for the record."
 * Inside Wine Cellar: "Hey there, [Player]. What are you doing down here in the Cellar? We sell drinks at the house, not here. Nice and cool down here, eh? And this is the only place you can hear the wine talk. It's alive, just like you or me. As long as I'm working down here, I don't think I'll ever want to retire."
 * At the Inn: "Good to see ya, [Player]! Are you done working? I work myself to the bone every day too, you know. I've earned myself at least a small drink, wouldn't you say?"
 * At the Church: "Hey, [Player]. Y'know, as it turns out, Carter is a surprisingly decent guy."

Chat

 * "On days like today, when that afternoon sun is high in the sky, my mind always seems to wander until I'm darn near slack-jawed."
 * "Manna loves the sound of her own voice, so it might be hard for you to actually, y'know, BUY something from her. But the reality is that she's just lonely, so I hope you'll forgive her."
 * "The human brain is simple, you know. Simple to trick, at least. If you convince yourself that something is good for you, you won't get sick from it."
 * "Wine comes down to the quality of the fruit used to make it. Period. The fruit I painstakingly raise always makes top-quality wine."
 * "Hope you've gotten used to how much of a chatterbox Manna is.. Well, have you? If you can tune out the petty stuff, listening to her should give you a solid sense of the town dynamics."
 * "This Winery is named after my daughter. 'Adge Winery,' I call it. What do you think? A perfect name, right?"
 * "You know, now that I get a better look at you, you remind me of my daughter."
 * Walking to the Inn: "I don't really go to the Inn because I particularly crave their food - I just like talking with the regulars."
 * Walking to the Inn (after Cliff is working at the vineyard): "Cliff is rooming at the Inn, you know. He doesn't eat much, but he has a fairly sophisticated palate."
 * Inn (Cliff is working at the vineyard): "You look like you're really busting your butt out there. Cliff is too, y'know. Dudley's always going on about what a great guy Cliff is. Contrary to what you might expect, he's actually a pretty popular guy."
 * Inn (while with Manna and Cliff): "We're eating out as a family today! We stopped doing this after Adge left. We're going to Church with Cliff today. I'd never so much as set foot in there until recently. Turns out it's not so bad to have somewhere quiet and empty to clear your head every once in a while."
 * At Church: "Ever since Cliff came into our lives, I've changed my mind about a lot of things. Before, I'd just spend Saturdays in a semi-lucid haze. Now, well..."
 * In Wine Cellar (Cliff is working at the vineyard): "Now that Cliff's pitching in, my work is a lot easier than it used to be. I'm truly grateful to you for connecting us, [Player]."
 * "Cliff's made no secret of the fact that he's thankful too. He was saying he probably wouldn't be here if he hadn't found this job."

Gifts

 * "Oh ho! I think I'll hide it from Manna and keep it all to myself."
 * Birthday: "Oh ho! A birthday present? Wow, I bet everyone loves you, huh?"

Festivals

 * Before Spring Derby: "What's that? You wanna know the odds for the Derby horses? You and me both, friend. You and me both."
 * Day before Spring Derby: "I always get real worked up come Derby time. I look forward to 'em every year."
 * At Spring Derby: "Did you remember to buy some tickets? The mayor is selling them if you're interested."

Cluck-Cluck Clash:
 * Day before Cluck-Cluck Clash: "The Cluck-Cluck Clash is tomorrow... It's a real lively little festival, so it's definitely a favorite of mine."
 * You enter the Cluck-Cluck Clash: "I wish you luck in the battle ahead."
 * You lose the Cluck-Cluck Clash: "What a shame. Perhaps it would perform better if you gave it a bit more attention."

New Year's Eve:
 * Few days before festival: "Another year gone, eh? I'll drink to that."
 * "Hey. You here for the noodles too? New Years just isn't New Year's until you've had a good, hot bowl of soba noodles, right?"
