Character Dialogue

General Dialogue

Greetings: You and me, runnin' into each other? What are the odds? Well, well, well, look what the three-headed dog dragged in. But seriously, good to see ya. Everyone here's so NICE and CHEERFUL... Seriously, what's their angle? Long time no see. How are things? Peachy, am I right? I've been thinkin' – you and me? We'd make a great team. Think about it. Lookin' good. Nice outfit. Did you do somethin' different with your hair? I'm a little busy, but I can always make time for my favorite – albeit annoying – hero wannabe. Why am I awake this early?! Who turned on the sun?! (at morning) Nighttime's my time, know what I mean? (at night) A little damp, a little gloomy. I feel right at home. (while raining) It's a little bright today. Who's your sun guy? Apollo? Put in a word and ask him to turn it down, would ya? (while sunny)

Gift Responses: A little cheesy. But hey, what can you do? An offering? Sure, I'll take it. I usually prefer my offerings burnt, but this is fine.

Hang Out Start Response: OF COURSE you wanna spend time with me. Let's make it happen. Okay, but don't spread it around that I'm penciling you in without an appointment. Sure, I got a minute. Let's walk and talk.

Hang Out End Response: Are we done? 'Cause I say we're done. Come and see me anytime... After noon. Mornings aren't really my thing. Let's do this again sometime. Not soon. But sometime.

Observed Dialogue: I haven't seen anyone this lost since Theseus took on the minotaur. Sheesh. There's more drama here than a day in the theatron. Some of us, regrettably, have full-time gigs. Memo to me. Memo to me... Anyone wanna make a deal? I'm NOT in the mood for anyone's heroics today! Where can a god get a decent souvlaki around here? Hey, what's the buzz? The sun's shining, birds are chirping... It's enough to make your teeth hurt. (at morning) A dark and ominous night. Works for me. (at night) Great. My hair's smoldering and my robes are damp. Not what I was goin' for. (while raining) Sunny and cheerful? Not really my scene. (while sunny)

Scramblecoin Text

Scramblecoin Request Response: Oh, this'll be fun – for me. Probably not for you. Scramblecoin Eager Float Text: Hey, think you could take some time out of your schedule for a little game, you busy bee you? Scramblecoin Player Victory Float Text: That... that can't be right. Scramblecoin Player Defeat Float Text: Yes! Hades rules! Hey, blame the Fates, not me.

Daily Discussions

Are you planning something?

Oh, do I have my scheming face on? Well, I am workin' on something big. You might even say epic. Just wonderin' if I should consult the Fates about it. →  Who are the Fates? Oh, just some old biddy know-it-alls who keep an eye on the past, present, and future. They're good consultants if ya know how to butter 'em up. Though they like giving advice in... ugh... verse. →  That sounds like a good idea. I'll have to get on their calendar, which is a headache and a half. They know everyone who's ever gonna want an appointment with 'em. So they schedule themselves out into the next century. →  What if they give you bad news? Yeah, that's the headache of talking to the Fates. They'll give ya insider intel, but what they say happens. So if they say a plan's doomed, that's it. You're done. Nothin' can change that fate.

Do you like dogs?

Really? That's your question? Do I seem like a "pet" guy to you? →  A dog guards the Underworld. Oh, Cerberus. Sure, but he's easy. →  Don't you take care of Cerberus? Oh sure. But that's easy. I toss him three steaks three times a day... ...send him to devour trespassers. Otherwise, he keeps to himself. Okay. Maybe I like ONE dog. →  Not really. There you go. Answered your own question. Consider the phrases: "Cute kitten cuddler" and "Lord of the Underworld." See how they don't match up? Glad we're on the same page.

Did you enjoy living in the Underworld?

It's all right. A little dark, a little gloomy, but... Hey, what do you expect, am I right? The company could be better, though. →  You get a lot of visitors down there? What? No! That was a joke. Because it's nothin' but dead people! Sheesh. →  You mean dead people, don't you? No, I'm talking about Mickey Mouse and all his pals. OF COURSE I mean dead people! Keep up. →  Maybe you should get a pet. I don't need a pet. I've got a three-headed dog in my entourage. Goes by "Cerberus"? Is that ringing any bells?

Do you have any evil schemes cooking?

Seriously? Did you just ask me that? Rule number one, Player: you can't just ask someone if they have an evil scheme. →  Why not? Because it's... never mind! The important thing is my schemes aren't EVIL. They're just balancing the cosmos by putting me in charge which is how it should be. I'd say more about it, but that'd ruin the surprise. →  That was kind of rude, sorry. Yes, it was. Luckily for you, I'm a stand-up sorta guy and I forgive you. →  But you do, don't you? Yes, I do. Obviously I have an evil scheme! I have schemes on schemes. I'm LOUSY with schemes. But I'm not gonna tell you about it. That'd ruin the surprise.

Do you need any advice?

Purely hypothetically... Let's say you want to assume control over an area someone else is currently in charge of... What would YOU do? →   Is this about Everafter and Maleficent? Maybe, maybe not. She's bein' less than cooperative at the moment. But that's beside the point. Let's look at the whole mosaic, the big picture. The entire spanakopita, if you will. →  Running the Valley is more work than you think. What? I'm not after the entire Valley! I mean — your words, not mine. →  You said "spanakopita" and now I'm hungry. You're— Fine, all right, go eat something. You mortals and your appetites. →   I'd never do something like that! Of course YOU wouldn't — you're you! You've got that whole "protector of the Valley" bit goin' on. But if you DID, how would you do it? →  I'd find allies. Yeah... Yeah. Always good to have someone who's got your back. A couple of Titans might do it... →  I'd use magic. Right. Doesn't help me, but I get it. →  No! Just no. Sheesh, all right. Message received. Lighten up, will ya? →   I'm not going to tell you that. Hypothetically. Aw, c'mon! What do you think, I'm gonna steal your plans for myself? Is that what you think of me? →  I mean, kinda. Whoa, trust me. I've got PLENTY of thoughts on conquering territory, okay? ... But if you DO think of anything in the future and feel like sharin', hey... Swing by and we'll chat. →  Sorry, I'm just not villainous enough. Oh, trust me; I GET IT. I should've known better than to ask one of you hero types.

What are you up to today?

I'm — wait. Why do ya ask? What have ya heard? →  I haven't heard anything. Good. Because I'm not up to anything. Anyway, I'm just gonna go for a stroll. See the sights. Maybe pick some flowers. You know me; I'm all about the flowers. →  I was just curious. Oh. That's actually kinda nice. No one ever just asks me about my day. Something about "fearing the lord of the Underworld." Which makes sense, I guess. Still, people can be so judgemental based on your career. Besides, it's not like I asked for the job. Zeus bestowed it on me! →  You're acting... suspicious. Suspicious? Me? Don't be ridiculous. You attempt to turn a baby god mortal ONE time, and no one ever trusts you again.

What's your favorite thing about the Valley?

Let's see... my favorite thing? There's just so much to love! How can I choose? →   You're being sarcastic, aren't you? Of course I'm being sarcastic! It's me here! As if I, Hades, have spent any time thinking about things I may or may not love about this place. →  So... it's all the delicious food, isn't it? I mean... sure, yeah, the food isn't terrible. That Mickey guy can make a mean apple pie, let me tell you. →  You love the people, don't you? Ugh, yuck, no! People should fear and worship me! Everyone here is too happy for that. ...I mean okay, sure, it's been nice catching up with some previous acquaintances from the Valley. Mother Gothel and I haven't had a chat in ages. →  No need to be rude, Hades. Oh, was that rude? Gee, I'm SO sorry. In case it wasn't clear, that was more sarcasm. Hey, I'm kidding. Kinda. Mostly. Chin up, Player. →  I like all the Villagers! ... I was being sarcastic, but hey, your "totally sincere" thing? It's a good angle.

What's your happiest memory?

That's tough. I mean, things have been a smidge unhappy for millennia now. I am the lord of the Underworld, you know. Maybe it was taking over Mythopia? Or that time I one-upped Zeus, crashed his little party, and turned his son mostly mortal. He did NOT see that comin'; trust me. →  That's pretty evil. You say "tomato", I say "tzatziki". Besides, after delegating me to the Underworld, we're barely even. →  Why crash the party? Well, yours truly wasn't invited! Someone had to go and give the Olypmians a little etiquette lesson, know what I mean? →  What happened to the baby? Unfortunately, he was totally fine. He's got a little hero thing goin' on, with his god-like strength and all. Just a little Herc hiccup in my grand schemes.

You look cheerful.

Hey, what can I say? Sometimes you have a day and things just work out. →  Did something nice happen? You could say that. I mean, it was nice for me. Not so much for the other guy. But I'm the one who really matters, right? →  Did you do something devious? Ya know, I did. Just a little primo double-dealing. I'm not gonna say anything else, because you've got your "quest" face on. Go fix someone else's problems, okay? →  Did you have a yummy lunch? You know what? I did. Moussaka and some really fresh pita. Thanks for askin', Player.

You seem mad about something.

NO. No. It's okay. It's fine. Fine. I'm cool. I'm fine. →  Did something happen? Nothing big. A minor setback in a plan I'm not talkin' about. Because I don't want SOMEONE meddling with it. I'll just move a few things around and make it work. →  It's funny how you got your hair all smolder-y for a second. Funny. Great. Yeah, that's really funny. I'm so glad I amuse you. →   It's okay to be angry. Oh, I know. Believe me, I know! And there is a LOT that makes me angry. But I'm guessin' you don't wanna see me REALLY angry. Let's just say furniture tends to incinerate. →  Oh, I'm sorry. It's fine. Whatever. I'm fine. →  That's inconvenient. Yeah. A bit. Not for me. Others, yeah. But not me. →  I can build new furniture. Oh. Nice. Yeah, you would say that. Always the helpful little do-gooder, aren't ya?

Observed Conversations

With Maleficent ( A Long-Awaited Invitation)

Ahh... Maleficent. You, uh... you're lookin' a little greener than usual. It's really workin' for ya. My appearance is entirely irrelevant to the task at hand. I've been looking into the mysterious ink bleeding from the Vale... ...and I've discovered that there's a deeper magic at work. Deeper magic? What are we talkin' about here? Something is wrong with the Vale. Something beyond the two of us. I am willing to overlook your disrespect, for now... ...because if we don't set aside this dispute, there may not be a Vale left to rule over. Hey, if you're willing to let bygones by bygones temporarily... I guess I can too.

With Vanellope ( Yes, Your Lugubriousness)

Hades? What are you doing here? I'm taking over for today! Try some of this Grecian Baked Fish. Uhhhhhh... ... Well?! I give it a 5 out of 10. Some sugary caramelization would really make it sing. Sugary caramel?! I perfected this dish a thousand years before humans harnessed fire! Sugar would ruin— Hey, watch it! You're getting close to that jar of oil!

With Flynn ( Yes, Your Lugubriousness)

Flynn! Feast your eyes on this Potion of Auricular Superiority — yours for only 100 Moonstones. A potion? Can I take a look? Of course! Crafted by Ursula, it makes your hearing even better than... a wolf's. I'll ignore that last crack since you're delivering the potion I ordered from Ursula. Wait a Peloponnesian minute here; she didn't mention... Thanks, Hades. I appreciate it. Give Ursula my regards! Now there's no way those Frog Snippets are gonna sneak up on me.

With Mother Gothel ( Yes, Your Lugubriousness)

Welcome to Scrooge's Store, currently under new management! No need for chatter. I require a new crimson silk gown. And none of that low-end imitation fabric.. Oh, unfortunately I think we're out of crimson silk. But can I interest you in— No. If I wanted something else I'd ask for it. We have many other valuable— Never mind. If you can't help me, you can't. Ta-ta! ARRRGHHHH!!!

With Scrooge ( Yes, Your Lugubriousness)

Scroogey! I think you'll find I handled myself admirably. Hades... it smells like cinders in here. That wasn't my fault. You've been... getting a bit of a reputation. It was Mother Gothel! Do you know how INFURIATING she can be? If you cannae handle customer service, then you dinnae belong in my shop.

Endorsement Speech ( Your Own Personal Hades)

Hey, come on over and feast your eyes on some of Hades' amazing food of the gods! You, yes you, could eat this same incredible food for the low price of visiting Goofy's Stall! And even better than the food — is the LIFESTYLE! If you want to live as glamorously as me, you just need the freshness and quality from Goofy's Stall. As a little gift, try using coupon code HADES15 for a sample. You've been a great audience. All of you! Don't forget: Hades — the celebrity who really connects with YOU! Now, Player, bring me a latte and leave me alone for, like, a week!
