The following are quotes from Alecto in Hades
First Encounter[]
???: "Ah, hah hah, hohohohohh. Finally. I've been waiting for this! Really."
Zagreus: "You must be one of Megaera's lovely sisters, I don't believe we've had the pleasure. Waiting for what, exactly?"
Alecto: "So sick of, you know, doing my regular job, uninterrupted. Not having to clean up Meg's messes!"
Zagreus: "I get the feeling we're starting off on the wrong foot."
Alecto: "Anyway. I always wanted to kill a god. You'll have to do."
Pre-Fight Conversations[]
Dialogue 01[]
Alecto: "You're no god! You're nothing but a piece of trash. Born into all of this. And you don't even want it!"
Zagreus: "You seem to have me all figured out. And here I thought we were still getting to know each other."
Alecto: "Tsch. Well. You want to know what I want? Here, I'll show you."
About Zagreus' blood[]
Alecto: "You know what I like about you? The way you bleed. Mmm."
Zagreus: "That ... is not the type of flattery I'm used to. You're making me a bit uncomfortable, I'll have you know."
Alecto: "Never met a god that bleeds like you. Red. Like a worthless mortal. Come on! Let's bleed you dry."
Dialogue 02[]
Alecto: "Let's get to work, redblood, what do you say? Me, I say you've kept this girl waiting long enough."
Zagreus: "Well, I say I don't appreciate you calling me redblood. You're making me rather self-conscious about it, you know."
Alecto: "Oh, hoho, you're funny. But you'll break. They always do."
Dialogue 03[]
Alecto: "I have got to admit, you are really frustrating, you know, redblood? What is it going to take to make you scream, hm?"
Zagreus: "What, you mean to say Meg never told you? And here I thought you two were close."
Alecto: "Ehh, we'll find out. I've got plenty of ideas left I've been meaning to try."
Dialogue 04[]
Alecto: "I got to ask, how come you keep on showing up, redblood? I thought you would have had enough beatings by now."
Zagreus: "Well, you know, I've come to enjoy these visits with you so much, Alecto, that I've made it something of a regular routine. Form good habits and then stick to them, I say!"
Alecto: "You call this a good habit, huh? Maybe for me, it is. Well, come here all you like, and I will be here waiting, every single time! About once every three times, anyway."
Dialogue 05[]
Alecto: "Damn you for this, redblood. You're making me look bad, you know? Making me feel bad."
Zagreus: "Alecto, I didn't ask you to repeatedly attempt to kill me. How did you expect me to respond?"
Alecto: "Ah-hahah - hahaha, hahah, you do know what happens when you make me feel bad, don't you ...?"
Dialogue 06[]
Alecto: "You know something, redblood? In retrospect, I should have known this wasn't going to be a quick job."
Zagreus: "They say both gods and mortals are notoriously poor at estimating how long it takes to get anything done."
Alecto: "Normally when I'm on the job, they grovel, then they scream. They shut up eventually, but not you. At least, not yet."
Dialogue 07[]
Alecto: "I've got a lot to be thankful for, you know, redblood? Your daddy could have shut you in the lowest pits, and then we never would have met!"
Zagreus: "Perish the thought, Alecto. What would you have done with yourself if not for all our fated encounters?"
Alecto: "I don't know! I mean, before we met, I flayed all sorts of other trash down here! But lately I've been keeping them waiting, because of you."
Dialogue 08[]
Alecto: "Know something, redblood? Try as I might, I still have not forgiven you for beating me last time. Call it a crippling character flaw, I don't know ..."
Zagreus: "Forgiveness can take time. Though self-reflection is a healthy step. We're making progress!"
Alecto: "You think we're making progress? Here? Ah, hah, ha-hah, ha-hah, ha-hah, why you piece of trash! I'll show you progress."
Dialogue 09[]
Alecto: "Redblood, I'm getting awful sick of seeing your smug face, time, after time, after time."
Zagreus: "Have you given any thought to just ... leaving me alone, and going back to wherever it is you came from?"
Alecto: "You see? That is exactly what I mean. To think that Megaera had to put up with you for, I don't know how long."
Dialogue 10[]
Alecto: "Huh, it's the god of trash, come once again to filthy up this place! You're getting real predictable, you know."
Zagreus: "Considering I beat you last we met, I'd be much more concerned with your predictable than mine."
Alecto: "Don't want to hear it from you, trash! Just want to see you bleed. Now you come here!"
Dialogue 11[]
Alecto: "Good job, redblood! You made it all this way! But, I have got to send you back to daddy, now. Nothing personal!"
Zagreus: "Wish you could join me, Alecto. Want me to put in a good word with Father next time, so you can visit us at the House yourself?"
Alecto: "Oh, you know, I'd rather have my eyes put out, but thanks for offering! Now, time to head on home."
Dialogue 12[]
Alecto: "Hey, redblood. I have done a lot of thinking, and I've come to the conclusion that I want you never to speak to me again. Ever. Got it?"
Zagreus: "... Erm, I don't know how to respond to what you said without directly disobeying your request, Alecto. But for future reference, fine, I'll bite."
Alecto: "You'll die! There's no use standing here flapping our gums when we could cut to killing one another right away. Come on!"
Dialogue 13[]
Alecto: "Huh! You really must like pain an awful lot, redblood. Or maybe it's just me."
Zagreus: "You see, Alecto? Turns out we do have a common interest after all."
Alecto: "Did you just -? Don't you ever compare yourself to me again, you trash. You want more pain, I'm happy to oblige."
About Tisiphone[]
Alecto: "Tisiphone's started to say the strangest things, lately, redblood. You wouldn't happen to know anything about that, would you?"
Zagreus: "Oh, don't fret. I was just trying to help her expand her somewhat limited vocabulary."
Alecto: "Stay out of her head!! You really think she's got something to learn from you? Learn to shut up from her!"
Extreme Measures Active[]
Dialogue 01[]
Alecto: "You must have gone and signed a Pact! Isn't that right, redblood? Tell me right now."
Zagreus: "Well, as a matter of fact, I have. Though I don't see how that's any business of yours, Alecto."
Alecto: "I like working alone! And you don't see me doing that, right now, do you? So I would say it's my business, all right. Along with killing you!"
Dialogue 02[]
Alecto: "You ready, Megaera? Tisiphone? Let's go."
Dialogue 03[]
Alecto: "Check it out, Sis! The god of trash is here. Let's get to work."
Dialogue 04[]
Alecto: "Ugh, would you just look at him! That smug look, that posture, everything! Please tell me you're not going soft for this trash-god, Sister."
Megaera : "Come on, Alecto. When was the last time that we looked to one another for approval? Besides, as long as we kill him, what do you even care?"
Alecto: "You know, fair point, there, Sister! Very nicely said. Let's kill him, now!"
Dialogue 05[]
Alecto: "Look at this awful piece of trash, come here again to bleed all over our nice shiny floor. Ready to fight my lovely sister, there, redblood?"
Megaera : "He's not so awful once you get to know him, Sis. Not that it matters for what we're about to do."
Alecto: "The both of you disgust me, Meg, you know that? Get it together and kill him this time, damn you!"
Dialogue 05[]
Alecto: "You mess with Tis, redblood, you mess with me, get it?"
Tisiphone: "Mmmuurrderrerrr ...!"
Extreme Measures Inactive[]
Alecto: "Whew, I thought I'd never get some quiet time again, you know, redblood? That damned Pact you stupidly agreed to, making me work with my sisters again. I'll get you for that!"
Zagreus: "I'm sensing a pattern that it really doesn't take much for you to have something to get me for, does it?"
Alecto: "Oh, that's rich! How smart of you, you're smart! Know what? I'll get you for that, too!"

Post-Ending[]
Alecto: "Heard rumblings about some news back at your daddy's House, redblood. So his illustrious abducted Queen, she's come back home?!"
Zagreus: "Wait, how do you even know all that? And should you really be talking about the Queen that way?"
Alecto: "I don't answer to her! She can come and go as she wants for all I care. But you want to know who can't?! Yeah, you."
Post-Epilogue[]
Alecto: "Heard you had a real bash down in your daddy's House, redblood. So sorry I couldn't make it. Next time, though, all right?"
Zagreus: "Next time, definitely, Alecto. We missed you for sure and wish you could have made it!"
Alecto: "Hohoho, I'm sure you did. But, you know, work comes first! So let's get busy."
