SolomornAfterSex — Rogue Trader Dialogue Archive

Entry point 1

NPCLying back on the sheets, Solomorne stretches out contentedly, rolling his broad shoulders. Drops of sweat cover his dark skin. "That was exactly what I needed. But far more than I dared hope." He gives you a thin smile, as though he does not know how to express his feelings any more overtly.

YOU[Study Solomorne]

NPCEternally tense and ready for duty, Solomorne almost looks like a normal man without his armour. For once, his knuckles are not menacingly taut on his violent hands, the line of his mouth is soft, and his gaze wanders in drowsy blissfulness.

YOU"You have entertained me. I am pleased I did not err in granting you this privilege."

NPCSolomorne gives a debonair nod in response. "I strive for perfection in all things."

YOU"I think we should do this again once in a while."

NPCGrowing serious, Solomorne directs a piercing look at you. "I don't think so, Rogue Trader."

NPC"We had a good time together, and I'm grateful for that. But an affair between us could affect our... working relationship."

YOU"What makes you think an affair would harm our working relationship?"

NPC"Can lovers be expected to stand in unbiased judgement of each other? Besides..." Solomorne's voice turns soft. "I don't see myself as someone who is open to having such an intimate relationship with another person."

YOU"Admit it, you didn't actually enjoy it."

NPC"Lying isn't in my nature, [Name]. I enjoyed it — more than. But it's a matter of principle."

YOU"What if I ordered you to continue our affair?"

NPC"Then I will, with great regret, refuse to obey that order. For no law of the Imperium compels me to obey it."

YOU"I disagree. Our relationship is worth preserving and strengthening. Think about it."

NPCA mix of emotions flashes across the man's face for a moment. "You and I are both bound by duty, [Name], and that takes precedence over any matters of the heart."

YOU[Sigh] "Unfortunately, you're right. I can't afford to have an affair with you. It wouldn't be fair."

NPCSolomorne hesitates warily. "Not fair? Why?"

YOU"You are loyal to your duty, but love will demand that you be loyal to the Rogue Trader. That will tear you apart."

NPCSolomorne stares at you in silence for a long time, and then says quietly, "If I fell in love with you, I would truly struggle to choose between you and my duty. So let that remain a desire unfulfilled."

YOU"Forget it. It's fine."

NPC"As you wish... Rogue Trader."

end of branch

YOU"You know what? Get out."

NPCWiping his recent contentment from his face, Solomorne nods briefly. "I did not wish to offend you. I apologise, I'll be on my way."
