Andrew: I feel like it didn't end well between us. A lot of emotions, and I apologised every time we met, and then I started to avoid you instead. So, I just want to end it in a better way... I love you, but it won't work. Can we be friends instead?
Louise: Best friends?
Andrew: Best friends.
Louise: Best friends?
Andrew: Best friends.

Louise: Oh my Watcher, that's a relief! I thought you hated it.
Andrew: Did it ever look as if I hated it?
Louise: No. But what do I know? I wouldn't want to woohoo with someone I'm not physically attracted to.

Andrew: Physical attraction isn't needed for woohoo. It can be a romantic and intimate moment. And if it isn't, it's still a fun activity.
Louise: I'm not sure what you're trying to say.
Andrew: You did nothing wrong. I enjoyed it. It's just not what I was looking for in a long-term relationship.
Louise: I'm not sure what you're trying to say.

Louise: I... I don't know if this is a bad moment, but I want to say sorry. I should've realised. I mean, we woohooed and everything. I feel really bad about that.
Andrew: Don't feel bad about it. Just because I'm not physically attracted to you doesn't mean I didn't like it.
Louise: It doesn't?
Andrew: Don't feel bad about it. Just because I'm not physically attracted to you doesn't mean I didn't like it.

Andrew: So are you.
Louise: What?
Andrew: You're beautiful. I don't think I ever told you before. Better late than never.
Louise: What?

Andrew: Do you want to have a look at the ruins?
Louise: Sure. How do we get inside without having to climb over any walls?
Andrew: Look in front of you.

Ahriman: So you're "the other two"?
Beatrice: I suppose so.

Ahriman: Oh, hello. I promise I'm not trespassing. I'm Ahriman, I received a letter that told me to be here. I know I'm a bit early, but-... Oh, right, you probably don't understand what I'm saying. But if you do, you can tell your family that I'm here, but the other two haven't arrived yet.

Goldie: This is the only types of relationships I know what they are like. As you said earlier today, I have not been around for long. I am only eleven months old.
Beatrice: Then let's change that and become friends. I feel like we have a lot in common.
Goldie: ^^

Goldie: I have hung out with Melon, Kodex, and Eve a few times. But I think Melon and Kodex find me a little intense, I can get a little carried away with jokes. And Eve is a bit paranoid, which I have accidentally triggered a few times.
Beatrice: That doesn't sound very neutral.
Beatrice: That doesn't sound very neutral.

Beatrice: Since you asked me why people don't like me, I have something I'd like to ask 𝘺𝘰𝘶: Do people like you?
Goldie: Cameron does. He is the only one I would call a friend. Most other people seem to be quite neutral towards me and I only hang out with them in groups.

Goldie: Why are we walking up this ramp instead of walking around the platform?
Beatrice: Are we in a hurry?
Goldie: No, not yet.
Beatrice: Then why not have a little fun?
Goldie: You are right, this is more fun than it would have been to walk around it.

Goldie: I have been thinking about something... How come several people do not like you? You seem quite friendly to me.
Beatrice: I get along well with bots, but not with sims. Only Morgan.

Goldie: I think you would have to ask someone like Cameron about that instead. I am not very versed in this subject.
Beatrice: I'm not that curious about if it's normal to be honest, I just wanted to know if they're a couple or not. It sounded like a couples thing and I often see them together.
