Twins

Youtube, start - 3:35.

The party are gathering metal from the corpse of a large monster they seem to have slain. With them are a pair of twins (Forte and Assid) and an angry-looking woman (Velvet).

Aegis: We retrieved plenty of metal. Rita should be able to fix our convertor with this.
Yuna: Zen shall we 'ead back?
Forte: Mind if we tag along? We were hoping to stay the night at a nearby town.
Kanata: There's a village right on our way back. We'd be happy to guide you to it.
Assid: Awww, thanks, guy. You're a sweetheart.

Vicious, Kanata and Aegis gather aside from the rest of the group.

Kanata: Do you think Forte and Assid have noticed that we're transgressors?
Aegis: They haven't said anything, so I would imagine not. Hopefully we can keep it that way until we reach the village.
Vicious: Or we could come right out with it and see how things go. I'm itchin' for a good fight.
Aegis: Why are you always so eager for a brawl?
Vicious: What's more natural than seein' someone strong and wantin' to fight 'em? That's how men are!
Aegis: That's just how YOU are.

At this point Assid comes over.

Assid: Ooh, what are we all gossipping about? Let me in on the fun.
Kanata: Oh, uh, no! Nothing! We're not gossiping at all!
Assid: If you can't tell me what you're gossiping about... Ah-hah! Yeah, all right. I get it. Gettin' a little smutty, are we?
Kanata: What?
Assid: What else could it be beneath those hushed tones? Boys only ever have one thing on their mind, after all.
Vicious: You're a little spark plug, ain'tcha?
Assid: Hehe. Well, what kind of man would I be if I didn't like a little dirty talk now and then?
Vicious: Now here's a guy I wouldn't mind havin' a drink or ten with.
Assid: What a treat! Alas, I don't drink.
Vicious: No problem there. I'll drink enough for the both of us.
Kanata: Huh... Those two are really hitting it off.
Aegis: Boorish prattle.

Back with the rest of the party, Misella is staring at Forte intently.

Forte: Is there something on my face?
Misella: No, it's not that. I was just noticing how similar you and Assid look. Even for brothers.
Forte: We're twins. People mistake us for each other all the time.
Yuna: I would imagine zat is inevitable when you look so much alike. Ah, I could 'ave so much fun if I 'ad a twin. You are so lucky!
Forte: Fun?
Yuna: For example, when I met someone, I could 'ave my twin leap out from be'ind to surprise zem! I could run towards a friend, my twin running 'idden be'ind me, when we suddenly run in different directions! It would appear I 'ave split in two! If someone is giving out free sweets, I could get one, leave, and zen return claiming to be my sister in order to get a second one!
Forte: Yeah, we've done all of those. Heh. I guess it was kinda fun.
Misella: You did ALL of those things? Seriously?
Yuna: Ah, 'ow I wish I 'ad a twin! Zen I could 'ave 'er do everyzing I do not like to do, while I live in total comfort.
Forte: Yeah, that one's a little trickier. After all, your twin would probably be thinking the exact same thing.
Yuna: Ah, I 'ad not considered zat. Per'aps it is just as well. It could 'ave ended in death.
