A moment from last night.

Archived from groups: rec.games.roguelike.nethack (More info?)

I tend to really get into my characters, occasionally replying in what
I think are appropriate voices when my wife asks me something. Take
last night...

At about seven she asked if I wanted anything from the store. I'm
playing an Orc Barbarian.

"Arr No! Kragg not need thingies from store! Stupid shop owners
never have what Kragg needs! Kragg kill them all when Kragg levels
up!"

She comes back a few hours later..

"So, how's the game going?"

"Splendidly! My excursions in the Dungeons and the Mines have proven
most profitable. I located the shades of three unfortunates who fell
to a Green Dragon, which I slew. Their abandoned possessions have
allowed me to become most ready for my further descent!"

"You found a helm of brilliance, didn't you?"

"+5, baby!"

Sorry, we're polyamorous.
