| - {Loud sarcasm. They player has made a huge mistake / Sarcastic} Oh, well, I'm glad you've still got hope, sunshine! Maybe we can group hug the rest of them to death!
- {Reminiscing an old story to the player / Somber} My family's lived in this town going back generations. Far as I can tell, we've been here as long as it has.
- {Can't believe it / Disbelief} What, you've never seen a Mirelurk before? You must have lived a charmed life up until now.
- {Get out of here, dummy! / Irritated} Then quit standing around slack-jawed and go do something!
- {Shocked, terrible news, the player has really messed up / Angry} You did what?!?
- {As if he's talking to an idiot / Puzzled} Where? Back out there? Why not just ring the dinner bell and serve yourself up on a plate? No, better to stay in here for a little while, at least.
- {scolding / Irritated} Well, you're about to make some time! I saved your sorry butt, the least you can do is keep me company for five stinking minutes!
- {Grumpy, but a small silver lining has appeared / Irritated} The good news is the turrets may be down but the targeting system should still be up. So your mission technically remains the same.
- {Friendly and happy / Friendly} You and me and Reba makes three, my friend. Hopefully those turrets will keep them off my ass for a while.
- {thinking of the past / Stern} It was a lot easier when it wasn't just the two of us.
- {hopeful, but sad / Friendly} Yeah, I hope so, too.
- {Dumbing down explanation as if to an idiot / Irritated} It's simple. There are five terminals around town. Five, like the number of fingers you've got on one hand, ok?
- {an added aside / Friendly} Reba says you're welcome.
- {Sarcastic like crazy / Sarcastic} Just a few, he says. "No big deal," he says.
- {Going back to cranky, all business Barney / Stern} Right. No time for reminiscing when there's work to be done.
- {Irritated} I appreciate your enthusiasm, but this isn't necessarily a covert mission.
- {Opening up a bit to the player for once / Neutral} Yeah, I'll tell you. It'll do me some good to get this off my chest.
- {As if he's talking to an idiot / Irritated} Lady, did someone drop you on your head as a baby, or did you have to work to get this stupid?
- {Unsure of player / Puzzled} You're a real weird one, you know that?
- {business only / Neutral} Nothing to think about, this is your assignment. Take it or leave it.
- {Angry sarcasm / Sarcastic} Nice sentiment, but she can't be in every place at the same time! Those turrets were in strategic locations so Reba and I can stay home most days!
- {Upset no one would listen to him / Irritated} I begged the town council to let me train the militia, to teach the citizens how to shoot and fend for themselves. But they thought I was just paranoid.
- {A little apologetic / Apologetic} Listen, don't let an old codger like me scare you. I'm old and I'm cranky and I haven't had a guest in months.
- {Rolling eyes, speaking to himself / Irritated} God, grant me patience...
- {Happy, jubilant, almost a first for Barney / Happy} You did it, didn't you? Ha, I could hear that sweet, sweet machine gun music all the way down here! You almost caught me and Reba mid-waltz.
- {snapping out of reminiscing / Stern} You're right, gotta keep my mind on the job
- {Irritated} Quit digging around in my pockets and be serious.
- {Proud then a little irritated / Somber} We did such a good job that before I was even born, this place was one of the safest towns in the commonwealth. And soon everyone forgot how to be cautious.
- {Down to business / Irritated} Now, I'd love to sit here gabbing all day like a couple of house wives, but we've got some work to do. And by we, I most definitely mean you.
- {Quiet unbelieving tone / Disbelief} No. No way you are this stupid.
- {Proud of himself / Irritated} Of course it sounds good, I'm a tactical genius. Smartest man in town, as a matter of fact.
- {a little conspiratorial / Friendly} She's not as tough as her older sister, but she's all yours if you help me out. Reba would probably get jealous anyway.
- {irritated, sarcastic / Irritated} Did I wake them all up and send them into a frenzy? No. You made your bed, now go lay in it.
- {Happy with the player / Relieved} Here's a key to my workshop in the Bunker. Reba II should be sitting on the table in there. I'd say you've earned her.
- {A little softer than usual. Thankful the player cares, but doesn't want to come off as a softie / Friendly} Yeah, thanks for listening. But don't think we're gonna start a knitting circle or anything, ok?
- {Proud of himself / Friendly} Now, if you'll excuse me, I believe today is earmarked for some target practice. The Salem Volunteer Militia never rests!
- {down to business / Stern} Before you showed up, the Mirelurks had been mostly quiet. And those that were a problem were quickly dispatched by my turret defense system.
- {He was so sure, but no one listened / Somber} I knew something was coming, I just didn't know what. And when the mirelurks started rising out of the ocean, no one was ready.
- {Irritated / Sarcastic} Yeah, but I'm not sure I trust someone as dumb as you to do it anymore.
- {Sad he couldn't do more to help / Apologetic} I saved as many as I could, sniping crabbies from my roost upstairs. But for every one I saved, three were goners.
- {Coming to a conclusion / Somber} I figure the last Rook will die here, whether it's in the belly of one of those crabs, or in my bed many years from now.
- {Happy} It's going to take a lot more than some big fish to scare me!
- {Irritated} Turn on all of the terminals and when I get time to fix your mistakes, those turrets should be ready to go.
- {Angry} A traitor in our midst! Get him, Reba!
- {Happy} Ha ha! Take that!
- {Happy} Woo! Gotcha, didn't I?
- {Happy} Woo! Yeah!
- {Irritated} Now, now. You stay out of there.
- {Stern} No time for chatter.
- {Stern} The mission comes first. Get going.
- {happy / Neutral} Now, about that reward...
- {neutral / Sad} Ok, I guess I've got a minute.
- {militaristic / Confident} The S.V.M. remains vigilant, despite overwhelming odds against us.
- {Negotiations have failed, he's not having any crap from the player / Irritated} I'm sorry if you were under the impression that this was some sort of negotiation, but I'm afraid you were mistaken.
- {As if he's talking to an idiot / Sarcastic} Oh, I saw how you handle yourself. Froze on the spot, like a deer in headlights.
- {As if he's talking to an idiot / Disbelief} Ok? Do you go walking into every empty town you come across assuming everything is going to be "OK?" It's amazing that you're not a corpse already!
- {Sarcastic at the end / Irritated} Go activate them and the turrets should reboot. Turrets shoot bullets. Mirelurks are allergic to bullets. Make sense, Einstein?
- {Scolding the player / Mayor} If it weren't for me, you would've been cut up like a paper doll.
- {Irritated / Irritated} Something I say unclear to you?
- {Yelling to someone far away / Puzzled} Hey, what are you doing down there? Look out, they're coming right at you!
- {Kind of realizing this for the first time himself / Somber} No, I don't think I will. Even if no one comes back, I can't imagine living any place else.
- {As if he's talking to an idiot / Irritated} No kidding, you weren't thinking. Wandering around like some aimless child, looking for their lost balloon.
- {Negotiating / Question} Ok, how about I throw in 200 caps? That starting to sound good to you?
- {Talking to himself, calming himself down / Irritated} Ok, Barney, calm down. Remember your blood pressure. Breathe.
- {Proud of his gun / Impressed} She's not just a gun! She's top of the line, best gun in the Commonwealth. Made her with my own two hands. Oh, where are my manners? Introductions!
- {Polite / Confident} No thanks needed, ma'am. The Salem Volunteer Militia is at the service of the people of the Commonwealth. Duty is its own reward.
- {Starting to think sadly of the past / Sad} Yeah, I'm fine. It's just...
- {Back to military, no nonsense Barney / Stern} All right, enough chit chat. You've got a job to do, so go do it!
- {Shocked, angry, this is horrible news / Angry} You did what?!?
- {Furious irritation / Angry} All of them?!? Are you kidding me? Are you even trying to help me here? Are you some sort of mirelurk spy in disguise or something?!?
- {Determined, the problems of the past won't happen again / Stern} That was a couple of year ago. Ever since then, I've vowed to protect this town, and I don't plan on breaking that vow.
- {informative / Concerned} The ones outside, the crabby looking ones. Those S.O.B's are hard to kill, on account of the armor you saw.
- {Yelling at someone below} You picked the wrong day to tick me off!
- {Reminiscing a little proud / Somber} Even after the bombs dropped, my folks worked hard to keep the town together and drive out any threats.
- {As if he's talking to an idiot / Irritated} Son, did someone drop you on your head as a baby, or did you have to work to get this stupid?
- {Sarcasm / Sarcastic} That's a real great plan there until one of them eats you and it's down to just me again.
- {Rolling eyes, to himself / Sarcastic} Oh, this ought to be good...
- {stating the mission / Stern} The turrets should be easy enough to find. They're up high in strategic locations around town.
- {Grumpy, but sincere / Depressed} Well, that's a long story. You sure you want to hear it?
- {Happy} I ain't running out of ammo anytime soon, crabby!
- {Friendly / Confident} They might, but they'll have something to think about if they do.
- {Friendly sarcasm. Barney is now friendly with the player, but he still makes jabs / Friendly} Yeah, and you smell like a fishmarket. Phew!
- {Irritated} Look, I'll open the gate and you get in here quick! I'm gonna let you in the bunker. Don't make me regret this.
- {Friendly, sincere / Friendly} Well, Reba and I appreciate it. We won't soon forget you.
- {all about the mission / Stern} And that's your mission, soldier. I'm going to continue to hold down the home front while you go reactivate the turrets.
- {Revealing a secret he's hiding from "someone in the room" / Conspiratorial} Look, don't tell Reba, but I've been working on a sister for her in my spare time. I'm thinking of calling her "Reba II." She's in the back room.
- {Negotiating / Stern} More of a mercenary than a soldier, I see. How does 400 caps sound? Not like I have to save for Christmas presents anymore.
- {Down to business / Neutral} Since things had been quiet lately, I took the turrets offline to conserve ammunition. Obviously, they need to be reactivated.
- {Saluting and proud / Confident} Barney Rook, commander of the Salem Volunteer Militia, at your service. I'm also the quartermaster, sergeant at arms, and scribe for all official meetings.
- {Proud / Impressed} This here is Reba. But you two already met when she saved your life.
- {Irritated} So get back out there and try not to do something else stupid, ok? Like burn down the whole town.
- {Yelling to someone below him / Surprised} Are you crazy? Get out of the street before any more of them catch wind of you!
- {Very proud of Reba, his gun whom he treats like a person / Confident} Luckily, I've got Reba here to help me crack those crabs wide open. Isn't that right, girl?
- {Sarcastic like crazy / Sarcastic} Just a few, she says. "No big deal," she says.
