Relationship Cutscenes[]
New Acquaintances (expand)
- How to initiate cutscene: After gaining one full heart, visit Lina at her store during business hours
- Dialogue:
Lina: Hi Tara! So, what do you think, should the canned beans go on the top shelf, or the middle? Are beans eyeline-worthy?
Tara: Reorganizing, Lina?
Lina: Well, yeah, the store has looked almost exactly the same since my grandparents ran it! But it’s hard. Nostalgia, you know!
--[Choice: Follow your inspiration]
-Tara: Listen, you can follow your own inspiration while still honoring what your family passed down to you.
-Lina: You’re right! I should put my own spin on things.
--[Choice: Maybe split the difference?]
-Tara: Well, why don't you split the difference and change somethings while leaving others the same?
-Lina: That could work! At least that way, my regular customers won't be totally confused.
--[Choice: No! I just figured your store out!]
-
See, that right there was the response I was worried about.
Lina: Part of the reason I haven’t wanted to change things is so my dad won’t be disoriented if he comes back to Fairhaven. But he hasn’t been able to leave the rest home in Milkwater for a long time. And… he probably never will. Well. Thanks for letting me think out loud, Tara.

- Dialogue:
Parker: And who is this stranger who is gracing me with her presence? Is this… my wife?
Lina: Cut it out, Parker.
Parker: C’mon, Lina, I’m just teasing. You work too hard. The shop, the kids, visiting your dad in Milkwater… At least you should take time to hang out with your friends. Like this lovely lady! Am I right, Tara?
--[Choice: It’s complicated]
-Tara: Parker, maybe you don’t understand all of Lina’s responsibilities. She’s really stressed. You should cut her some slack.
-Lina: Thanks Tara. I don’t need to be given a hard time for not relaxing enough!
--[Choice: It’s all about balance]
-Tara: I think you might have a point, Parker, but Lina has to find a balance in her life that works for her.
-Lina: Look, I know Parker is right, I just don't know how to make more time in the day to actually do the relaxing part!
--[Choice: Lina should take more time off]
-
Lina: You know, I wish I had more time to spend with my friends, really I do, Parker. But then… I really don’t have that many close friends anymore. I haven’t done the best job keeping up with people. I am glad you moved back, Tara. It’s been so nice rekindling our old friendship.

- How to initiate cutscene: After gaining four full hearts, visit Lina at her store during business hours
- Dialogue:
Lina: Hi Tara. I’m just doing inventory. Can you tell me how many cans of sardines are over there by you?
Tara: Sure thing. Looks like three?
Lina: Huh? Oh, sorry, I’m just so distracted. Parker and I…. we can’t seem to communicate very well lately. I don’t mean to pry, but… your fiancé left, right? Do you have any idea why?
--[Choice: We just didn’t fit]
-Tara:We just weren't compatible, I guess.
-Lina: Oh, I'm sorry about that. Funny thing is, as different as Parker and I are, we've always kind of fit together, you know?
--[Choice: I’m sill not sure]
-Tara: I’m still not sure what went wrong, to be honest. One day we were just over.
-Lina: Oh, that’s terrible. That’s the worst, when you don’t even know what you could have done to change things.
--[Choice: We kept too many secrets]
-
Lina: I love Parker. I hope this tough time we’re going through is just a temporary blip. Thanks for listening. And it means a lot to me that you trust me enough to share your personal story.
