Before talking to Larry
- Player: Hello!
- Gurl: Hello sir, it's Christmas!
- Player: Merry Christmas!

After talking to Larry
- Player: Hello Buoy and Gurl!
- Gurl: Hello sir!
- Buoy: How do you know our names?
- Player: I had a chat with your dad. He's super busy, so he's asked me to help you build a snowman!
- Gurl: Really? We get to make a snowman?
- Player: Yes! And I'm going to build whatever snowman you want!
- Buoy: Yay! Can it be three snowballs tall?
- Gurl: But I want it to be five tall!
- Buoy: Five is a bad number, it should be three tall!
- Gurl: You're a bad number. Five is so much better.
- Player: Okay, okay, wait a second. Why don't we meet in the middle. How about four snowballs tall?
- Buoy and Gurl think for a second.
- Gurl: Fine, it can be four tall.
- Buoy: Yes, four tall is okay.
- Player: Great. Now, we need to pick what size snowballs we want for each tier. Why don't you take it in turns? You can do two each.
- Gurl: The bottom one should be a huge snowball!
- Buoy: The next one should be big!
- Player: This is working nicely, we're half way! What about the top two parts?
- Gurl: The next one should be a small snowball!
- Buoy: No, it should be little!
- Gurl: But it needs to be small, little would look bad.
- Buoy: It wouldn't look bad. Small is better for decorations.
- Gurl: My decorations will fit on a little one.
- Buoy: Why do you always ruin everything?
- Gurl: You ruin everything with your silly ideas!
- Player: Okay, okay, wait. This clearly isn't working, and I don't want you two to fall out. It's Christmas, we shouldn't be arguing!
- Player: How about I make you both a snowman? It can be whatever height and size you like. One each!
- Gurl: So mine can be five snowballs tall?
- Buoy: And mine can be three snowballs tall?
- Player: Yes, I'll make you both whatever snowman you like!
- Player: What would you both like?
- Buoy: I'd like mine to be three snowballs tall please! And I want the bottom one to be small, the middle one big, and the top one huge!
- Gurl: I'd like mine to be five snowballs tall please! I want the bottom one to be humongous, then large, then normal, then big, and then a little one for the top!
- Player: That's two very different snowmen, I see why this didn't work before!
- Player: What do all these different sizes mean? Humongous? Normal? Little? How big are those?
- Gurl: You silly billy! Humongous is the biggest snowball of course!
- Buoy: Normal is the normal size that you get when you make a snowball normally. It's easy!
- Player: Right, thank you for clearing that up. I'll figure something out.
- Player: What are you two going to do for decorations?
- Buoy: I already know what I want mine to look like!
- Gurl: Me too!
- Player: Why don't you guys find some decorations while I build the snowmen? Then you can add them once I'm done.
- Buoy: Okay sir!
- Gurl: We will do that!
- Buoy and Gurl go back to playing in the snow.
- Player: Well, that seems sorted. I should speak to Larry again, and see if he has any advice about building the snowmen.
- (End of dialogue)
Talking to Buoy and Gurl before speaking to Larry again
- Player: Hello there!
- Buoy: Have you started making the snowmen yet?
- Gurl: You should talk to dad if you need some help, he knows how to make snowmen!
- Buoy: Yeah, he always used to make really big ones with us!
- Player: Maybe I'll go talk to him and see what advice he has.
- Gurl: He'll say, make them really tall!
- Buoy: He'll say make them shorter, because that's better!
- Buoy and Gurl wander off, arguing about what size snowman is the best.
- Player: I should go and speak to Larry. I'm sure he has some handy advice for me!

Making snowmen
- Buoy/Gurl: That looks good! It needs a [size] snowball next!
- (End of dialogue)
When finished building snowmen
- Buoy: They're done! They're so cool!
- Gurl: Yay! Can we decorate them now?
- Buoy: Yes! Can we decorate them now please [player name]?
- Player: Of course you can. Are they what you wanted?
- Gurl: Mine is perfect!
- Buoy: Mine too. It's just how I wanted it.
- Player: I am happy to hear that. It was harder work than I thought.
- Gurl: You did a good job. Thank you very much [sir/madam].
- Buoy: Yes, thank you [sir/madam]!
- Player: It was no problem. Merry Christmas to you both!
- Buoy and Gurl go to their snowmen to start decorating.
- Player: I should go and speak to Larry. Hopefully he has that festive white wine ready for me.
- (End of dialogue)
After talking to Larry
- Player: Those snowmen look amazing!
- Buoy: Thank you! Decorating them was quite hard!
- Gurl: Yeah, they took ages to do! Do you like mine?
- Player: It's really good! Reminds me of something actually.
- Buoy: What about mine? Do you like it?
- Player: I like yours too. They both remind me of something!
- Gurl: Mine is Thermy! My favourite monster! She's so big and scary, makes me go woah!
- Buoy: Mine is Tempy! My favourite monster! He lives in the water, a huge mass of angry wet!
- Player: They're both amazing! I didn't know you guys would be so good at decorating.
- Gurl: Dad lets us decorate every year. We get a lot of practice!
- Buoy: Last year we made them into the Fragment of Seren and the King Black Dragon!
- Player: What... really??? I'd like to have seen that. Those sound even more difficult than these two!
- Player: How do you know all these monsters anyway? There is no way your dad would let you anywhere near them!
- Buoy: Dad reads us lots of stories, and we hear about them from passing adventurers, like you.
- Player: You must meet some interesting and cool adventurers!
- Gurl: Not as cool as you though; none of them helped us make our snowmen!
- Buoy: Yes, you're the first to help us make them!
- Player: Well, you're welcome. I really enjoyed it. What are you guys going to do now you're finished?
- Gurl: We're going to go and play! And maybe visit the festival. Will you be there?
- Player: I sure will be. Maybe see you there!
- Buoy: Bye sir, Merry Christmas.
- Player: Merry Christmas, have fun!
