Falldown Mall

(After finding a record by The Witch House in the vinyl record store)

• Meredith: That album art - you've found it!

• Meredith: Wait. Something's not right.

• Meredith: "Timeless and Strange"? That's not the name of the album...

• Meredith: And this cover art is slightly different too...

• Meredith: The track listing... I don't know these songs.

• Meredith: It's some alternate universe version. The one I wanted isn't here.

• Meredith: I knew I shouldn't have expected anything good to happen to me.

• Meredith: Typical...

(Meredith and the player fall as the floor collapses, landing in a Mer-Line Station)

• Meredith: Urgh, what happened... <player> , are you OK? The record - I dropped it. Can you see it?

(When Meredith and the player meets Nowhere Monarch)

• Meredith: Wh-what is that?! Why does it look so... wrong?!

• Meredith: It hurts my head just looking at it... Cass, it's an Archangel, isn't it...?

(Mid-battle against Nowhere Monarch)

• Meredith: It'd be so easy...

• Meredith: It'd be so easy to give up and just die...

• Meredith: But that's not me! I'm sick of letting myself down!

(When Nowhere Monarch is defeated)

• Meredith: We did it... We're alive... We fused?

(After defeating Nowhere Monarch)

• Meredith: Uh...

• Meredith: I realise that this was a really trivial thing to come all this way for.

• Meredith: And a really stupid thing to nearly die over.

• Meredith: You didn't have to do this. Thanks mate.

• Meredith: I think... I've had enough of abandoned malls and mortal peril for today.

• Meredith: C'mon, let's go back to town and check this record out.

Relationship Level Scenes

This section is incomplete. Feel free to add the missing information by editing it.

Relationship Level 5

• Meredith: OK, are you ready for this?

• Meredith: ...

• Meredith: Movie night. At my place. Are you in?

(Choice between "Sure!" and "Not now.")

If chosen "Sure!":

• Meredith: Alright, you're gonna love this.

• Meredith: So check this out - the only working movie projector on New Wirral.

(Choice between "Amazing!" and "How did you get this?!")

• Meredith: It's been one of my many side-hobbies.

• Meredith: It's time I tell you about New Wirral's unspoken curse.

• Meredith: You see this?

• Meredith: It's a video tape. But not just any video tape...

• Meredith: It's a video tape for the 1981 action movie "Blood Puncher".

• Meredith: Hundreds of video tapes have washed up on New Wirral's shores in the time I've been here.

• Meredith: I've collected them.

• Meredith: All of them.

• Meredith: Guess what?

• Meredith: They're Blood Puncher.

• Meredith: Every single tape is Blood Puncher.

• Meredith: It's the only film you can watch in New Wirral.

• Meredith: So guess what we're watching?

(Choice between "Sounds like my kind of movie!" and "I'm ready to enjoy this ironically!")

• Meredith: That's the spirit.

• Meredith: I wanted to say, thanks for hanging out with me.

• Meredith: I've been pretty miserable on New Wirral, but this is, like, the most fun I've had.

(Choice between "I'm glad we're friends!" and "Maybe this should be a date?")

If chosen "I'm glad we're friends!":

• Meredith: Heh. Me too, Cass.

• Meredith: Okay, enough sincerity, mate.

• Meredith: We have an awful movie to watch. I hope you're ready.

If chosen "Maybe this should be a date?":

• Meredith: ...

• Meredith: Took you long enough to ask.

• Meredith: C'mon, we've literally fused together.

• Meredith: It kinda puts me in your head a bit, y'know? And, like, of course I think you're cute.

• Meredith: Why not? Date night. With a bad movie.

• Meredith: Can we keep things casual? Like, non-committal?

• Meredith: I want to hang out with you still...

• Meredith: But I also want to make out with you sometimes.

• Meredith: Anyway, I've seen this movie a million times.

• Meredith: So... we don't have to do much watching.

If chosen "Not now.":

• Meredith: Boo. Give me a shout when you're up for it. It should be a laugh.

Romance

• Meredith: You haven’t said anything for a while, <player>. Is something bothering you?

(Choice between "I want us to be together." and "Nothing in particular!")

If chosen "I want us to be together.":

• Meredith: I…

• Meredith: I mean, of course I like you.

• Meredith: I don’t know why you like me, but I like you.

• Meredith: But we’re working towards leaving this world…

• Meredith: If we succeed, we might not stay together. Are you… OK with that?

(Choice between "I am." and "I think so.")

• Meredith: Screw it. Why not?

If the player goes by he/him pronouns:

• Meredith: Me, with a serious boyfriend. Sounds weird. Feels right.

If the player goes by she/her pronouns:

• Meredith: Me, with a serious girlfriend. Sounds weird. Feels right.

If the player goes by they/them pronouns:

• Meredith: Me, with a serious partner. Sounds weird. Feels right.

• Meredith: It’s always been easier for me to tell myself that I need to be happier with myself before I get into a relationship with someone, but I think the truth is…

• Meredith: I might NEVER be truly confident in who I am. I’m not ever gonna be my perfect self.

• Meredith: But you make me happy, and I'm more whole when I’m with you than I am without.

• Meredith: Th-that’s enough sappiness from me. Oh, and I can’t do cute-talk.

• Meredith: If you’re expecting me to ever call you “honey” or “dear”, you’ve got another thing coming, mate.

If chosen "Nothing in particular!":

• Meredith: Uh, OK.

Campsite and Gramophone Café Conversations

This section is incomplete. Feel free to add the missing information by editing it.

Character Interactions in Gramophone Café

Meredith and Kayleigh

• Meredith: ...I really don’t get it.

• Meredith: What is the “inter net”? Half the people in Harbourtown are crying over how much they miss it!

• Kayleigh: Y’know, the internet? Like on computers, or phones?

• Meredith: On phones? Do you speak to people over it?

• Kayleigh: …What was the current year in your world before you came here, Meredith?

• Meredith: 1989, why do you ask?

• Kayleigh: Oh! OK. I can see we’re maybe a little out of sync with each other.

Meredith and Eugene

• Meredith: ...I did have some engineering work to do back at the shop, but I might just swerve it for now.

• Eugene: Yeah! You gotta take a break sometimes, buddy!

• Eugene: …. Wait, what did you say just now?

• Meredith: Uhh, I said I had some engineering work to do?

• Eugene: What did you say after that…?

• Meredith: ...I was gonna swerve it?

• Eugene: Is that a phrase? To “swerve” something?

• Meredith: Oh, I mean, yeah. Like if you’re going to skip out on doing something or going somewhere, that’s you “swerving” it.

• Eugene: OK, gotcha. I shall embrace your unusual slang with an open mind.

• Meredith: I think I’m gonna swerve this whole conversation.

Meredith and Felix

• Meredith: ...My music tastes?

• Felix: Yeah! What did you used to listen to back in your world?

• Meredith: That’s a broad question. I like bands where all the members hate each other.

• Felix: That’s very specific.

• Meredith: I’m a very specific person.

Meredith and Viola

• Viola: I must confess, dear Meredith, the way in which you fashion yourself is unlike any I have seen before – in my country, and in this one.

• Meredith: I’m not sure if that’s a compliment or not.

• Viola: I mean no insult. You seem unconcerned with aligning yourself with the appearance of those around you. It implies a deeper confidence in oneself.

• Viola: I find you rather admirable in that regard, dear Meredith!

• Meredith: Uh, thanks mate.

Meredith and Barkley

• Barkley: Arf!

• Meredith: You like belly rubs, don’t you?

Meredith and Sunny

• Sunny: ...No, I never had to “drink blood” as a Landkeeper...

• Meredith: So you’re not, like, a vampire. But are you sure you aren’t maybe a little bit undead? You look pretty pale.

• Sunny: ”Undead”? I’m not familiar with the word... Is it bad..?

• Meredith: I guess not. I’m just curious about you.

• Sunny: You’re... curious about me...?

• Meredith: Don’t take it the wrong way! You’re like, a living dead girl. Or maybe you’re not. Either way, it’s cool.

• Sunny: So you’re saying you don’t quite understand me, and that interests you...?

• Meredith: I... guess?

Meredith and Frankie

• Frankie: ...I just don’t know, Meredith. If I leave New Wirral, I’m going to have to get a job and all that boring stuff.

• Meredith: You’re just a kid, right? You’ve got some time left before you hit the mundanities of adulthood.

• Frankie: I’m eighteen! I don’t think you’re that much older than me!

• Meredith: Oh. I didn’t realise. I guess you have such a... youthful energy that I mistook you for younger.

• Frankie: I get that a lot!

Here Comes The Sun

(After meeting The Mer-Line)

• Meredith: That didn’t go how I expected.

Magikrab's Gauntlet

(When encountering Meredith)

• Meredith: Well, this is an odd feeling. Time to face myself, I guess.

(When encountering Nowhere Monarch)

• Meredith: Urgh. This thing again.

(When Meredith is on her own)

• Meredith: Oh, great. What have I gotten myself into here?

(When Meredith is the first fighter in a pair)

• Meredith: Alright, I've got a strategy in mind. Here goes: we hit them harder than they hit us. What do you reckon?

(When Meredith is the second fighter in a pair)

• Meredith: Urgh, we're going to lose, aren't we?
