One of my older NPCs. I decided to upload it to SHS' Misc.Released Mods section. This one should work on both old BG2 and EE.

FROM README:
 
"When asked about her past, PETSY CHATTERTONE is more than willing to talk. Usually, it’s not even about herself: the weather, food, how her hair frizzes in humidity... She talks so much that it's difficult to know what she’s actually talking about. Still, you do gather that she has parents and a brother in her hometown, Gullykin, although she has neglected to tell you why she left there at all. She travelled the Sword Coast and in Amn, her final destination. Her presence in the city isn't a coincidence and you can only presume that it has something to do with the journal she carries with her. It seems more precious to her than any treasure.

So far as you can tell, she is well-intentioned, even if a little chatter-prone. Her fighting skills are adequate enough, but she’s sure to know a trick or two to help you on your journey."

Petsy Chattertone is a romanceable halfling bard. She's young, playful, talkative and silly. She's not very strong, but hopefully she'll be able to make you smile.
Mod includes both SoA and ToB content, though the ToB content isn't very extensive at this point. Still, yes - you will be able to talk to her in both SoA and ToB. In her SoA portion, every player will experience some talks and a quest. Male gnomes, dwarves and halflings can romance her. Those are the only requirements.

You can find her in the Sea's Bounty tavern.

I'm attempting to play through the Petsy Chattertone romance in TOB but I can't get past the second love talk in it because any option I choose causes the game to crash.  Please help 

[Lava Del'Vortel]

It's a bit weird. Last time it worked fine. I will check it again once I have some time.

Hi,

I had the same crash, but looking at the files I figured out why.

the "é" of fiancé seems to use the wrong encoding. In fact multiple .d files of the Petsy mod seems to use a different encoding than the main game. Here is how I realized.

From the Petsy mod:

188043:That's why we are a marvelous couple, my fianc�!

One from vanilla game:
 

96576:My contact, Sanik, is dead; I must go to Lady Galvena's Festhall to speak to his fiancée, Claire, to see if she knows anything about what Sanik was about to tell me. There may be another way into the asylum, but without Sanik's help, I don't know what it might be.

Edit, maybe that's not the bug. The following lovetalk also sometimes crash my game depeding on the choices I make.

 
There is also another annoying bug that doesn't crash the game: Petsy's dialog with Sam Thunderburp in the Five Flagons loop.

Same by the way with Skie and Garrick in the Temple district (I noticed you're the author of that).

Dear Players!

It's been so many years since I released my first project. And I just couldn't stop there. I would keep releasing new projects and while it takes more time these days, I still keep providing you new mods. I just like it. In the same time, my mods are all over different sites and sometimes it's hard to get everyone informed about new releases, new updates, remember about all the threads... I also like trying new things. Because of that, I've decided to centralize my work. That means I am moving almost all my mods to... well, a brand new place: Weasel Mods Forums.

There are some project I won't move, though: like those that are part of something bigger than just me. Like projects I released as a part of NPC IEP mods (Valygar Friendship, Minsc Friendship, etc.) or Yoshimo's Remorse I released along with jmaeq.

Nevertheless, if you are looking for my mods, use these links: www.weaselmods.net (forum), www.downloads.weaselmods.net (download)
There is an alternative download powered by DropBox - use it when the usual download site doesn't work:
www.dropbox.com/sh/56dr4q8h2q7djri/AACJfi0A2mV7hFlH3eqDLTcEa?dl=0

I hope you'll enjoy the new place. Perhaps it's not as modern, some solutions may seem a bit outdated, but... I just hope the new site will serve the purpose and that you'll find it at least "ok". The old download links may expire in a while as with time those mods will be removed from SHS. Because of the same reason, mods I uploaded at Beamdog forums will also be available only at Weasel Mods.

Best wishes! Thanks to everyone who's been supporting me for years now. That includes both other modders and all the players that gave my mods a chance! Also thanks to Spellhold Studios, Gibberlings Three, Pocket Plane Group and all the other modding websites out there! You rock!
