List of dialogue spoken by Bad Grief. These lines are played when near a character, providing additional insight into the events and characters of the Town.
Dialogue spoken is dependent on both the day and chosen player character.
My tongue is my enemy; a well-thought game comes before.
There will be leisure when I am dead.
If you miss an hour, a year’s not enough to make it.
Have the seams opened again?
The wooden neck bends badly.
The one who makes a hard bed sleeps better.
If there is some carrion, the crows will fly.
Once a thief, always a thief.
What is to happen, will happen.
Day 1
(Bachelor) That girl Devotress did it before you. Greetings from her.
(Bachelor) No, the little girl is not so simple. Her look is prickle, she makes evil. A thief sees a thief at once.
(Haruspicus) He is nimble, this doctor. He has already managed to shoot down someone. I see a villain from afar.
(Haruspicus) Kinda lotta authority was taken by the guest from the capital. Would it be a trouble?
(Devotress) The son of Isidor has shown himself. Better not make fun of him. He is like us, the murderer.
(Devotress) So, the Ripper has killed all? Well, serves them right, the disobedient ones. Perhapt-it’s-at— Perhaps it’s our calf catching the wolf, hehehe.
Day 2
(Bachelor) Authority began to divide. It’s already clear who wins. The Kains will not recover for long, and Vlad is hiding, he knows he is guilty.
(Bachelor) Well, Saburov will regret that. Your haste will make people laugh.
(Haruspicus) I wish to find out who did this to your father. We wouldn’t spare this monster.
(Devotress) You are warming. So, Saburov wins now? The trump has left.
Day 3
(Bachelor) They say it’s neither plague nor cholera. So, we shall be alive, we shall not die? Funny. The trade will rise.
(Bachelor) If only it were not the same as five years ago. There's no rescue from the Sand Filth.
Day 4
(Bachelor) Is it true they have already begun to bury? So, this is a pestilence…
(Bachelor) Devotress has handed the Ripper over. Ah! This girl is artful! If you don’t trust anyone, they will be just as found for you too.
(Haruspicus) This Bachelor is terrible. He would not heal but cripple! Ah, he will finish with us, and he will not stop.
(Devotress) Smart boys they are, Dualsouls. Or so they thought. Braga will play games with them? They have finished badly.
Day 5
(Bachelor) Where do they bring the dead? Or again they throw them to the river, to make all Town drink sorrow?
(Bachelor)The thief usurer cooks a trouble. They have just pressed Braga down, and here you are.
(Haruspicus) The Bachelor’s not redeemed the innocents of the prison. A hypocritical snake!
(Devotress) Has Haruspicus split the belief? Andrey will not forgive him that. He is also free to be with his hands. We shall have a look now, who beats whom.
Day 6
(Bachelor) Whom will they send on our head? Orff? Arminsky? Petr Kray? All the same, our heads are lost.
(Bachelor) The Albino, the Devotress, the Rat. They are one pack. They are evil spirits.
(Haruspicus) The instigators have attacked Apary. This was arranged by the Bachelor. Even if it was not him, the thief would never approve that.
(Devotress) What have you come for, my dear little thief? Have you lost your people? Obviously this is your bad day.
(Devotress) The Bachelor again is catching the cannibal. Now he is skilled. Now he will not be mistaken.
Day 7
(Bachelor) What an Inquisitor. Walks everywhere, is not afraid. Ordered to open Apary.
(Bachelor) Ripper has outwitted all. From the dirt to the princess!
(Haruspicus) The Bachelor with the Inquisitor. Here are two wisdoms united. Well, the business will go now.
(Devotress) So, Burakh has managed to create panacea. And I thought he was telling lies!
Day 8
(Bachelor) She is a malicious daughter. Has come down hard on us. In this way, she will not leave any will to us. To us, this town is precious as it is.
(Bachelor) Haruspicus has got the Elder. Whether he knows it or not, all the same one shall live and another shall die.
(Haruspicus) What did the Bachelor get under the ground? This is a wrong business for a lord.
Day 9
(Bachelor) Ah! This month the train is especially good. The assortment is exclusive.
(Bachelor) The Kains plan something. People speak. They seem to pull out their famous dead. I wish to have a look.
(Haruspicus) Look here: The Elder will ask you severely. And you’d better ask him, he will start singing as a nightingale.
(Devotress) The Bachelor returns so enthusiastic from the Tower. As if they taught him to fly!
Day 10
(Bachelor) They say Bos Turokh has appeared on the Waste ground. So, that killed man was not the last one— I wish he were!
(Bachelor)Rubin appears to be alive. I thought he had died.
(Devotress) The children will not leave the Tower. It will be a pity if it falls, the kids are there.
Day 11
(Bachelor) Well, what a disorder. A brother against brother, a soldier against soldier. The guns will start to fire at any moment.
(Bachelor) Klara says that if the people do not pity themselves dying, the Town will not be touched! Somehow, she will arrange it.
(Devotress) So, Burakh has passed the ordeal. Well, the way is smooth for a big man.
Day 12
Someone without a dream is like one without a soul. Well, we are small people, the branches are not about is. Do as you want.
If such people like me gather with an interest, the Town remains the former. We shall devote ourselves to Klara, we, the criminals. It is not a pity to have given a rotten life to a new Mistress.
Pathologic Classic
General
Yeah?
What?
A fool's tongue is long enough to cut his own throat.
Yeah, I sleep when I'm dead.
He who loans a minute owes a year in interest.
Feels like my stitches are popping.
A wooden neck is tough to bend.
Many a one says ill that sleeps well.
Where there's carrion, there are crows.
A part off-center the well is broken at last.
What is to be, will be.
Day 1
(Bachelor) That Changeling lass was faster than you. Sent her regards.
(Bachelor) Nah, that ain't no simple lass. Got a keen eye for playing tricks. Takes one to know one.
(Haruspex) That doctor's quick on the draw, eh? He fought someone already. I can spot a jail bird a mile away.
(Haruspex) The city boy grabbed too much power for his own good. This ain’t gonna end well.
(Changeling) Whoa! Isidor's son has proven himself. Not a man to be trifled with. A villain; a kindred spirit.
(Changeling) So, Ripper's done away with everyone. Serves them rebels right. Let the man dream big.
Day 2
(Bachelor) They're carvin' up the Town. It's clear who's gonna bag the prize. The Kains aren't getting back on their feet any time soon, and Vlad keeps mum. Got a finger in the pie, that's for sure.
(Bachelor)Saburov will regret this. Haste makes waste.
(Haruspex) If only we knew who did away with your Pa. We'd spare that mongrel nothin’.
(Changeling) Nice and cozy, eh? Saburovs have you under their wing now. Got yourself a trump card.
Day 3
(Bachelor) They say 'tis neither pox nor cholera. Too soon to measure for a coffin then. Hahaha. The business will flourish.
(Bachelor) I hope it's anything but what happened five years ago. There's no cure from the Sand Pest.
Day 4
(Bachelor) People get buried already. For real. So, it's the Plague.
(Bachelor) Changeling has grassed on Ripper, eh? That's a sly fox if I ever saw one. Trust the first comer not. She'll have her way with you, too.
(Haruspex) A spooky fellow, that Bachelor. Remedy worse than the disease itself. He'd swallow us whole!
(Changeling) Them Souls-and-a-Half are a bold lot. But did they think Barley's gonna play tag with them? Game over, fellas.
Day 5
(Bachelor) Where are they takin' the stiffs? Throwin' into the river once again, to drown the Town?
(Bachelor)Var the Usurer is starting a war unusual. Just nailed Barley down, and here we go, all around.
(Haruspex) So. Bachelor never got the innocents out of the jail, did he? That double-dealing serpent!
(Changeling) Haruspex has cut Willow open. Andrey will never let him get away with this. Another one with loose fists, that guy. We'll see who wins the tug of fist.
Day 6
(Bachelor) Who will they send upon us? Orff? Karminsky? Peter Kroy? Oh, how our heads will roll.
(Bachelor)Albino, Changeling and the Rat belong to the same pack. Fiends, all of them.
(Haruspex) The arsonists have attacked the Termitary. All Bachelor's doing, ‘course. Would not for him, Var never would have given the go-ahead on this.
(Changeling) What do you want, thief darling? Looking for your kind? It’s your lucky day, then.
(Changeling) Bachelor’s trying to catch the maneater once again. He’s getting good at it. Won’t screw up this time.
Day 7
(Bachelor) That Inquisitor, though. Walking around everywhere just like this. Ordered to unlock the Termitary, too.
(Bachelor) Ripper is the smartest of them all. From zero to hero.
(Haruspex) Bachelor and the Inquisitor. Two wiseacres sharin’ a perch. That’ll get the ball rollin’ for sure.
(Changeling) So, Burakh has made his panacea after all. That guy! I thought he was all talk.
Day 8
(Bachelor) The trollop has us all over a barrel. Ain't gonna go our way now, and we own the Town.
(Bachelor) So, Haruspex got to the Foreman. Whether he realizes it or not, one of them lives, the other dies.
(Haruspex) What is he trying to find down below? It's so beneath him.
Day 9
(Bachelor) This month's train was fat and fancy. First class stock.
(Bachelor) The Kains seem to be up to something, flaunting their dearly departed like this. I'd like to have a look.
(Haruspex) Take heed: The Foreman will grill you. Grill him instead. He'll sing like a canary.
(Changeling) Bachelor came back from the Tower all blissed up. As if they taught him how to fly there, no less.
Day 10
(Bachelor) Rumor has it Bos Turokh has appeared in the Lot. So, the latest wasn't the last. That be lovely.
(Bachelor) So, Rubin is alive. I thought him dead.
(Changeling) Kids won't leave the Tower. Shame if it'll have to go down. ‘Cause, you know. Kids.
Day 11
(Bachelor) Well, ain't that a mess. Kin on Kin, soldier on soldier. A full on fratricide. And the cannons will chime on any moment.
(Bachelor) Clara says that the Town will be left untouched if some of us petty folks find the courage to die. She can arrange that somehow.
(Changeling) So, Burakh has withstood the trial, eh? Godspeed to the man, walkin’ tall.
Day 12
A dreamless man is a soulless man. We are a humble lot, we stick to no paths. Do as you will.
If there's enough people like me, the Town will stay the same. We'll surrender ourselves to Clara unrepentant. A rotten life belongs to the new Mistress.
Pathologic 2
Some are wise. Others, otherwise.
Neither above nor below the ground can Heaven or Hell be found!
What?
Yeah?
Wisdom's good to possess - better still's his cleverness.
That doctor's quick on the draw. Already shot someone! So much for his "oath".
The city boy's bit off more than he can chew. Won't end well.
If only we knew who did away with your father... we'd spare the beast nothing.
For what the devil can't do, send a woman.
I've heard of this "love" thing, alright. Never seen it, though.
Ugh. The Kains shouldn't mess around with my railroad's ties. Such labour is beneath them.
And Vlad stays quiet... has his finger in the pie, I'm sure.
A well honed tongue breaks bone.
Where are they tossing the stiffs? Into the river once more? All those bodies would drown the town!
Var the usurer wages war on all poorer. Just nailed Barley down - here we go, all around!
Talk's cheap. Sow what you reap.
The Ripper's outsmarted everyone! From down and out, to talk of the town!
The wench has us all over a barrel. Nothing to be done about it now.
This month's train was loaded! Top shelf product!
Hmm... need to light a fire under this town.
There once was a man of great humour, who found he was dead of a tumour. But he woke up today, to his neighbour's dismay, and that of his cow once he took her! Heheh!
Nice and cozy, aren't you? The Saburovs have you under their wing, now. Got yourself a trump card.
Kids won't leave the Tower. Would be a shame if it collapsed. Because. You know. Kids.
A fool's tongue is long enough to hang them.
Time enough to rest after death.
Lose an hour, and you won't catch up in a year.
Feels like my stitches are popping...
Many who sleep well, speak ill.
Where there's carrion, there's crows.
A jug sent to the well often is soon smashed.
What must be, will be.
My path was not called 'The Spider'. No, think wider. It was 'The Silkworm'! The end of a railroad, I pulled strings firm; unaware someone more cunning pulled mine upstairs.
