Badruu: Dialogue: Gifting

After First Gift

At the Player's Housing Plot

Badruu
Hey, spring bean! I just wanted to say thanks for cheering me up when I was feeling blue.
So I got you this sapphire blue wallpaper. Sapphire also happens to be my Starstone.
You know in case you want to get me something for a special occasion. Hint...hint...

+ Steel Sapphire Stucco Wall

Starstone

Given Sapphire

Badruu
Is that what I think it is?
And you're giving it to ME?
I almost can't believe my eyes. This gift is saph-FIRE!
I picked that one up from the kids. It means I think this gift can't be beet!

Requests

Requesting Apple Tree Seed

Badruu
I can’t believe Zeki raised prices on apple seeds again!
At this rate, we're just going to have to take apples out of crop rotation.
Bye, bye Apple Pie!

Requesting Azure Stonehopper

Badruu
Most Bugs are just a nuisance out in the fields.
But the azure stonehopper is a pretty, blue nuisance!

Requesting Batterfly Beans

Badruu
I've been having a real hankering for bean burger lately.
Unfortunately, I had to sell most of my beans[sic] this week.

Requesting Carrot

Badruu
I wanted to surprise Delaila by making a carrot cake for dessert.
Unfortunately, my last batch of carrots got eaten by a rogue chapaa.
I guess the surprise will just have to wait until the chapaas around here lose their appetite.

Requesting Grumpy Granite Rockhopper

Badruu
I don't know what it is about the way they bounce...
But the Grumpy Granite Rockhopper is just great!

Requesting HydratePro Fertilizer

Badruu
My plants have been so thirsty lately, I've felt more like a bartender than a farmer.
I guess I could get some water retention fertilizer.
But that stuff's too rich for my blood.

Requesting Loaded Potato Soup

Badruu
I've been having a real hankering for a potato soup lately.
Unfortunately, I had to sell most of my potatos[sic] this week.
Also...I dropped some while practicing my juggling.

Requesting Meaty Stir Fry

Badruu
Back when I was a bachelor, stir fry was my go to meal.
I'd just take whatever meat and Vegetables I had laying around, put 'em in a pan, and BOOM instant dinner.

Requesting Onion Seed, Potato Seed, Tomato Plant Seed, Rice Seed

Badruu
I can't believe Zeki raised prices on (crop) Seeds again!
At this rate, we're just going to have to take (crops) out of crop rotation.

Requesting Rice

Badruu
I wanted to surprise Delaila by making mochi for dessert.
Unfortunately, my last batch of rice got eaten by a rogue chapaa.
I guess the surprise will just have to wait until the chapaas around here lose their appetite.

Requesting Rockhopper Pumpkin

Badruu
I wanted to surprise Delaila by making a pumpkin pie for dessert.
Unfortunately, my last pumpkin got eaten by a rogue chapaa.
I guess the surprise will just have to wait until the chapaas around here lose their appetite.

Requesting Soup

Badruu
There’s been such a chill in the air, I've been tempted to get a soup flask like Reth.
I could sure use a swig of (Soup) right about now.

Requesting SpeedyGro Fertilizer

Badruu
These plants sure take a long time to grow.
I guess I could get some hyper-growth fertilizer.
But that stuff's too rich for my blood.

Requesting Tomato

Badruu
I wanted to surprise Delaila by making her favorite tomato salad for dinner.
Unfortunately, my last batch of tomatoes got eaten by a rogue Chapaa.
I guess the surprise will just have to wait until the chapaas around here lose their appetite.

Requesting Wagon Wheel

Badruu
Man, farm work would be a lot easier if I could get our old cart working.
Unfortunately, it's missing a wheel.
I mean, I could still use it, but I don't think dragging a broken cart would make things any easier.

Requesting WeedBlock Fertilizer

Badruu
I feel like I spend more time pulling weeds than planting Crops.
I guess I could get some weed blocking fertilizer.
But that stuff's too rich for my blood.

Requests For Other Villagers

• For Delaila:

Requesting Blueberries

Badruu
My wife is known far and wide for her jammin' jams.
She wants to experiment with a new Blueberry Jam.
But unfortunately, we don’t have the blueberries to spare.

Requesting Fish

Badruu
What does my wife like...hmmm?[sic]
Well, I know she likes making other people happy.
And what would make me happy right now is some (fish).

Requesting QualityUp Fertilizer

Badruu
I wouldn’t go spreading this around, but Delaila’s been worried lately about being able to afford fertilizer. If we can’t save up enough soon, our Crops are gonna be underwhelming this year.
Personally, I prefer they at least be whelming.

I can't be-LEAF I'm saying something like this, but I wouldn't feed this to my ormuus, much less myself.

Specific Responses

Given Azure Stonehopper

Badruu
Lookit this little guy, hopping wherever he pleases.
Wish we could all be so free, huh?

Given Loaded Potato Soup

Badruu
Loaded potato soup, my favorite!
What’s not to love about a vegetable soup that’s made of nothing but cheese and carbs?

Given QualityUp Fertilizer

Badruu
Ah! The sweet smell of fertilizer.
Thank you. This is the best piece of crap you could have given me.

Given Seeds

Badruu
Seeds! Sweet!
...or savory.
Depends on whether these seeds are for fruits, Vegetables, or something else entirely!

Given Any Vegetable

Badruu
Thanks! I should be able to whip up a real feast with this.
Or if I fail, I can always blame it on you for delivering low quality produce.
Oh, you know I'm just kidding around, I'm sure you're[sic] Gardening skills beat my Cooking skills any day.
