Voice lines

Identity Acquisition

Have you woken up, Fascia? Faust has been waiting - there is a new friend Faust wants to introduce to Fascia. How is it? Such a splendid piece of corpus our new friend has, yes?

Morning Greeting

Fascia is a sleepyhead. Please refrain from visiting Faust in the early hours.

Afternoon Greeting

The critique session has been canceled - now there is some time left. How would you propose we spend this leisure in a more creative manner, Fascia? Hmm... Yes. *chuckle* Faust is in agreement.

Evening Greeting

When sunlight fades and luminous intensity attenuates, new ideas, untethered from prior renderings, begin to articulate themselves. It is a time when bright-red organs desaturate into earthen brown, and their three-dimensionality, released from chiaroscuro, returns to a state of unmediated neutrality... Ah, of course...! The assignment was never about amending the work, but light itself!

Chatter #1

A pleasure. Would you be willing to spend some time getting to know each other? Surely it won't be too hard to become friends - even for those who aren't geniuses like Faust. It's as simple as sharing the things we love, our hobbies, our dreams... yes, such things should be enough. Ah, but preferably, something that excludes Fixer stories and the Prescripts. There has been an overload of such tales lately.

Chatter #2

If it's not too much trouble, could you gift a piece of your brain to Faust? Friends are supposed to exchange gifts, aren't they? Faust wishes to give Fascia a fresh taste of an unfamiliar brain, you see. She's already had a few slices of Faust's own, and carving away more would risk losing Faust... Please, your generosity would be most welcome.

Chatter #3

Aesthetics concerns itself entirely with the visible, yet this self-evident familiarity often invites neglect that overlooks the inherent significance of what is seen. It is because of this that Faust forged this panoply. Not merely to provide a veil behind which the bashful Fascia might reside, but also to stage a dual aesthetic: the weighted inertia of the armored body against the beautiful liberation of the repressed flesh upon shedding the encasement. The thrill of the gap that arises when the unseen becomes seen... does it resonate with you?

Post-Uptie Chat 1

Now then, shall we deepen our friendship one step further? Let us examine the artistry of anatomization together as you critique the assembly that forms my body. A candid, impartial assessment would be most welcome - Faust is eager to identify areas for further refinement.

Post-Uptie Chat 2

Let the cadence of your heartbeat surge, Fascia. As your blood quickens, so too will hunger. Today is a day that calls for a feast. Please eat up - there is no need to hold yourself back. Grow corpulent with each piece of corpus consumed. Such excess will elevate you into a more beautiful composition.

Idle

... Fascia needs rest. Perhaps Faust does, too.

Uptying

Focus your ears and listen. Listen to Fascia's heartbeat... this pulsating sound of life!

Deployment

This quivering... Are you excited too, Fascia?

Stage Entry

A critique salon! Exhilarating prospect.

Viewed in Battle

Please observe from a distance - it's for viewing only.

Commencing Attack

A spark of inspiration.

Enemy Stagger

These blood vessels are sufficiently thick. Not bad at all.

Staggered

Are you afraid, Fascia?

Enemy Killed

Only now have we become friends.

Death

Fa... scia...

Check Passed

Che bello. Exquisite.

Check Failed

Non è bello. Devoid of beauty.

Victory Cry

The artwork is only a borderline pass at best; however, the critique salon this time around yielded neither improvement nor insight for further refinement. Fascia is anxious to reach completion... Perhaps it will be more fruitful to return and work on practice pieces among embalmed corpora.

Extra Conditions Fulfilled

At long last, Faust has completed the masterpiece that even the Maestro will have no choice but to approve. *chuckle* Oh, Fascia also agrees with Faust.

Defeat Wail

Faust only wished to be friends with you... Is this where the curtains are drawn upon Faust's art? Ah... Sorry, Fascia... Faust was in too much of a hurry...
