Introduction

When speaking to Aaliyah for the first time in a new game

 Aaliyah:

Oh, hello! I don’t think we’ve met.

Talk to Aaliyah again

 Aaliyah:

I’m Aaliyah.

Daily lines

Generic lines

Any amount of hearts

 Aaliyah:

Now that I’m home, I don’t get to fly as much… I miss it! I’m itching to get back in the cockpit.

Talk to Aaliyah again

 Aaliyah:

I wouldn’t let Mama hear me say that, though. She seems to think I’m home for good.
It’ll be easier for everyone if we let her keep thinking that until I have to leave again.

Talk to Aaliyah again

 Aaliyah:

Or maybe it makes it worse…? I just don’t want unnecessary conflict, is all.
Not while I’m living under the same roof with her.

 Aaliyah:

You know, I’m glad to be back on Coral Island, but it’s not quite the same without my dad and my little brother here.

 Aaliyah:

Do you grow trees on your farm? I heard they don’t die.
Food for thought.

 Aaliyah:

Mama likes to be busy… I told Noah that it’s best to just let her.
It’s good for her to have activities so she doesn’t just sit around the house.

 Aaliyah:

I like to eat the same things, especially for lunch.
It’s simple, you know? Eggplant lasagna or some hummus with things. I just made a bunch of food and put it in the fridge.
It’s one less thing to think about in the morning.

 Aaliyah:

I saw one of my brother’s cats on the roof the other day!
It was at Sam’s General Store. Do they go to your place too?

 Aaliyah:

I help out my brothers at the Tavern sometimes, cleaning up, closing, business advice – things like that.
It’s what big sisters are for, right?

Starting with two hearts

 Aaliyah:

Chaem is fun to play volleyball with. She’s really good.
Learning a lot of tricks and stuff from her.

 Aaliyah:

I’m ready to relocate my family to the city if I have to… You know, with the whole oil spill thing.
It hasn’t gotten that bad, I suppose.

 Aaliyah:

Don’t always believe everything you hear around here.
One time I heard a rumor from my own little brother about a ghost playing the piano in the community center. Yada yada yada.

Talk to Aaliyah again

 Aaliyah:

To have a ghost is one thing. Now they play the piano too?
Where would they even learn to do such a thing?

Starting with three hearts

 Aaliyah:

Mama’s been baking up a storm lately. I keep telling her, “Don’t tempt me – I have to stay in shape!”
But then she waves a chocolate chip muffin under my nose, and that’s it, I’m gone.

Starting with four hearts

 Aaliyah:

Playing volleyball with Chaem pushes me to be a better player… I like it.
It makes me better, and I get to work out.

Talk to Aaliyah again

 Aaliyah:

Besides, she told me she needed a partner to train with.
I mean, if I can be of help, why not, right?

 Aaliyah:

Every several weeks or so, Eddy does his disappearing act where he doesn’t answer mail and makes Mama all worried.

Talk to Aaliyah again

 Aaliyah:

I’m gonna have to snoop on social media and find out what he’s up to.
He’s got me all worried too!

 Aaliyah:

I’m glad to be where I am in life, but I can’t stop here, no. I wanna keep educating myself…reach for the stars, as it were.
I gotta set a good example for my little brothers.

 Aaliyah:

Have you heard of this show? I think it’s called Game of Cones? Noah’s always going on about it.

Talk to Aaliyah again

 Aaliyah:

I tried watching it with him, but it just made me hungry.

 Aaliyah:

Mama loves feeding the birds. She always has. When my brothers and I were kids, she taught us how to make bird feeders.
I still know how. I’ve just never done it.

Friday, Saturday

 Aaliyah:

The weekend’s here. I’m gonna get Noah to play volleyball with me tomorrow.
He’s probably gonna say no again. It’s hard to get that one to do any sports.

Starting with five hearts

 Aaliyah:

You’re one reliable farmer, Player.
I like that trait in a person.

 Aaliyah:

Oh hey, by the way… I like chatting with you.
You’re smart. You know a lot of things, that’s for sure!

 Aaliyah:

The trickiest part about being in basic training is the confinement. You gotta be okay with being with people in a small space for a long time.
Good thing I grew up with a lot of siblings. Trained since childhood, if you ask me!

 Aaliyah:

Eggplant lasagna is far superior to generic lasagna.
The texture is out of this world!

 Aaliyah:

I joined the military after university because I knew it was a path to becoming an astronaut.
Who doesn’t wanna be an astronaut?!

Monday–Wednesday

 Aaliyah:

I see your work around the community, Player. Respect! I’d tip my hat to you if I were wearing one!
I don’t shy away from hard work either… I see we have a lot in common.

Monday–Thursday

 Aaliyah:

It got pretty lonely at basic training. I missed my family.
Never leaving a place for months. That’s a long time.

Talk to Aaliyah again

 Aaliyah:

We did have a lot of things to do. The work never really stopped, so it wasn’t like we were sitting down, being bored.
But yeah. It gets to you sometimes.

With less than seven hearts

 Aaliyah:

My little brother and his friend, Alice, sure like talking about aliens. They have some…interesting theories.

Talk to Aaliyah again

 Aaliyah:

I used to dream about going to the moon when I was little. Mama told us about the Moon Goddess and her rabbit.
I wanted to go there too. Ha ha! Thought it was the coolest thing.

Between four and seven hearts

 Aaliyah:

My little brother and his friend, Alice, sure like talking about aliens. They have some…interesting theories.

Talk to Aaliyah again

 Aaliyah:

The universe is big, so maybe we aren’t the only ones! But who knows?
If I see something when I’m in space, I’ll let you know. Ha ha!

Between five and seven hearts

 Aaliyah:

Can’t wait to actually live on a spaceship up there and see Earth from above.
The view will be unbelievable!

Friday–Sunday

 Aaliyah:

It’s tricky to get some space in space…Heh heh!
Jokes aside, you gotta learn to coexist with others in a confined environment while under a lot of stress.

Talk to Aaliyah again

 Aaliyah:

Gotta say, it isn’t a walk in the park, but my siblings prepared me for it just fine.
I don’t think I’m doing so bad.

Seasonal lines

Spring

Generic Spring lines

 Aaliyah:

I don’t mind the cold weather and stuff, but nothing, and I mean, nothing beats eating outdoors.
But it’s much better in Spring than in the middle of an ice-cold Winter afternoon, of course.

 Aaliyah:

Enjoying Spring so far?

 Aaliyah:

Do you grow strawberries on your farm? If you don’t, you should!
They’re so good when they’re fresh. My absolute favorite fruit.

Starting with two hearts

 Aaliyah:

Being outdoors on a warm Spring day like this is my favorite.
Get that vitamin D, move your body… When your mind is clear, your day will be too.

Spring 2–7

 Aaliyah:

Miss the snow yet?

Spring 5–9

 Aaliyah:

Planning to go to the Cherry Blossom Festival, Player? You don’t want to miss it!

Talk to Aaliyah again

 Aaliyah:

Frank will be manning the grill, and my brother is more or less the grill master of Coral Island, so…

Spring 6–8

 Aaliyah:

Whatever you bring to the Cherry Blossom Festival, please don’t let it be brussels sprouts. Yuck!

Talk to Aaliyah again

 Aaliyah:

Blech! Sorry! Don’t worry about it.
You can bring whatever you want.

Spring 10–20, starting with one heart

 Aaliyah:

Spring is cool, but poor Char–
Ah! I’m just messing with you! Ha ha!

Talk to Aaliyah again

 Aaliyah:

Gah! People here can get all over your business, right? Everyone keeps talking about poor Charles this, poor Charles that.
Leave the man alone, people!

Spring 11

 Aaliyah:

Did you enjoy the Cherry Blossom Festival? I ate so much I could hardly walk home!

Summer

Generic Summer lines

 Aaliyah:

I’m A-OK to spend my whole Summer at the beach, playing volleyball.
But the thing is, I can’t seem to find any partners other than Chaem.

Talk to Aaliyah again

 Aaliyah:

Yeah, Paul is there sometimes and stuff. Just not often enough, you know?

 Aaliyah:

I can’t imagine going to the hot spring in this heat.
But I heard from my friend Chaem that the hunter dude goes there in Summer.

 Aaliyah:

Don’t let the heat get you, Player!
Power through!

 Aaliyah:

The grass changes color in Summer. Did you notice that?

 Aaliyah:

So tell me, Player, as a vegetable grower. Why do people care so much about the price of turnips?

Talk to Aaliyah again

 Aaliyah:

Hmm… Maybe not here, on Coral Island.
I visited an island some Summers ago – the heat reminds me of that trip. Anyway, some of the villagers there get very excited over the price of turnips.
It was oddly wholesome to see.

Summer 2–5

 Aaliyah:

Whoa! The farmer is here!
You look like you’re ready for Summer. Good for you.

Summer 2–7

 Aaliyah:

Thankfully I’ve fixed Fishensips’ ventilation just in time for Summer. It turned out there were clumped-up leaves stuck in there.
Gah!

Talk to Aaliyah again

 Aaliyah:

Could’ve been worse, I guess… It could’ve been a dead rat or worse…

Summer 23–28, starting at 5 hearts

 Aaliyah:

I’m looking forward to spending some time at the beach and soaking up the sun.

Fall

Generic Fall lines

 Aaliyah:

Now that it’s Fall, Mama can’t stop baking mooncakes at home.
It’s not that I want her to, anyway. Heh heh!

 Aaliyah:

It sure doesn’t sound like a bad idea to fly over Coral Island right now. Just when the leaves are changing color.

Fall 7–12

 Aaliyah:

Do you think you might enter the crop display contest at the Harvest Festival?
You should! You might win something!

Fall 21–25

 Aaliyah:

Do you have more layers at home you can wear?
Winter is next week, and it seems like it might be a cold one this year.

Fall 25–25, starting with four hearts

 Aaliyah:

Saw Lily cleaning up her mom’s grave the other day.
It must’ve been the day when–

Talk to Aaliyah again

 Aaliyah:

It’s never easy to lose a parent… It wasn’t easy when I was little, and it isn’t easy now.
I feel for her and her brother.

Winter

Generic Winter lines

 Aaliyah:

My brothers and I used to build snow forts in weather like this. Our snowball wars were epic!

 Aaliyah:

Winter is nice here. I like the snow in the trees.
Only in trees! When there’s snow on the path – that’s different.

 Aaliyah:

You can cook nice hot meals if you have a kitchen.
Now that it’s Winter, you might want to have hot dinners. Thaw out your frozen insides. Ha ha!

 Aaliyah:

You wanna have a snowball fight?
C’mon! It’ll be fun.

Starting with one heart

 Aaliyah:

Bring on the snow! Winter’s here, so let’s get on with it. &laughs&

Winter 20–23

 Aaliyah:

Are you going to Bree’s for the New Year’s feast? It’s going to be a good time!

A test of endurance and your ability to stay cooped up in a small space with a bunch of people.

Outdoors

 Aaliyah:

You know what I’m craving right now, Player? A nice hot cup of coffee…
I’m gonna go and get some.

Starting with five hearts

 Aaliyah:

Hopefully with the rain this heavy, the sky clears up tomorrow night. It would be nice to stargaze if you ask me.

It’s a little chilly today. It’s kinda nice.

I will be A-OK… Yep!

Talk to Aaliyah again

 Aaliyah:

*left eye twitches*

Beach

Starting with two hearts

 Aaliyah:

Gah! I got sand in my mouth!

 Aaliyah:

The beach is nice this time of year.
Well, the beach is nice any time of year, to be honest. Especially when the weather is perfect like this.

Talk to Aaliyah again

 Aaliyah:

It brings back a lot of childhood memories.

Starting with four hearts

 Aaliyah:

That volleyball thing over there…it’s been here since I was little.
But the bright-red color is new.

Talk to Aaliyah again

 Aaliyah:

The whole area, including the chair, used to be blue.

 Aaliyah:

Going on a walk?
I’m gonna have to wash my hair tonight… The smell of the ocean is strong today.

Center of town

Starting with two hearts

 Aaliyah:

I like getting coffee at Raj’s place.
They’re good at making coffee – my favorite!

Talk to Aaliyah again

 Aaliyah:

They once told me about how every cup is special – creating one is a work of art, things like that.
It works, though! Because the coffee at their place just tastes better than it does at home. I don’t know how to describe it.

Fishensips

 Aaliyah:

Hey, Player. Did you stop in for a drink?

Talk to Aaliyah again

 Aaliyah:

If you want to order, go to the counter. Frank will take care of you.

In living room

 Aaliyah:

Player, want to watch some TV with me?
I don’t even know what I’m watching. I wasn’t paying attention.

Talk to Aaliyah again

 Aaliyah:

I’m trying to unwind, but my brain’s going a mile a minute tonight.
It’s hard to stop it when my brain starts doing its thing.

Questions

Starting with two hearts

 Aaliyah:

Tell me, Player, do you think you’ll stick around on Coral Island? What’s your master plan?

 Aaliyah:

Player

 Aaliyah:

Yeah, I hear you. My career took me away from Coral Island for a bit, but this place is always home.

 Aaliyah:

Player

 Aaliyah:

Hmm. I get it, I do. You have to go where you need to be, know what I’m saying?
But I hope you’ll stick around for a while. We’re just getting to know each other.

Rare lines

Very rare random dialogue

 Aaliyah:

I wanna go up there… the outer space.
But to be honest with you, I’m kind of nervous.
What if I'm never picked… I’d get too old to go one day.

My baby brother Frank is your guy for grilling stuff. A lot like dad.

 Aaliyah:

Oh wow, I hope I didn’t eat too much today.
I get this nasty acid reflux if I have too much food in one sitting.

After potluck (0–24 pts)

 Aaliyah:

I think I can make a better hotpot at home.
But hey, who am I to judge?

If Aaliyah has not been met prior to the festival

 Aaliyah:

Oh, hello! I don’t think we’ve met. I’m Aaliyah.
You must be the new farmer. Everyone in town was talking about you.

 Aaliyah:

My brother, Frank, is manning the grill today.
That alone would be a big reason to get excited for today's festival.

This area gets a lot of rain. It’s good because a nice, stable water supply is what we need for reforestation.
