| Cheer Up | +4 | You make words sound like music. | It's going to be a bright and sun-shiny day. | Sonnets are my favorite poems. |

| Flirt | +1 | You have the most wonderful command of language. | ||
| Insult | -2 | Your poetry belongs in a greeting card. | When you talk you sound like you're asleep. | I'd rather hear a crying cat than your poetry. |
| Intimidate | -4 | If you don't speak normally I'm going to steal your quill pen. | I once memorized 'Paradise Lost.' | Oh everybody wants to be a poet these days. |

| Tell Secret | +3 | Psst! Yesterday I dreamt I was on a Hot Date! | Psst! Music is the space BETWEEN the notes. | Psst! I feel funny. |
| Tease | -2 | If you're such a good poet why haven't I seen you on television? | You would look so adorable in one of those flapper hats. | Don't you think writing is a little silly? |

| Annoy | -2 | Could you talk more slowly? | 'Ache' and 'break' are the best rhymes ever! | I write poetry on bathroom walls. |
| Apologize | +1 | Excuse me while I go bury my head in the sand. | Sorry about all these questions. | Sorry for all the confusion I cause. |

| Tell Secret | +3 | Psst! Do you dream in black and white? | Psst! I can recite Pi to it's one hundredth decimal place. | Psst! I am jealous of your writing skills. |
| Tease | -2 | Aren't poets supposed to have a pet snake or a bird? | You have a funny little twitch in your eye. | Your stomach keeps rumbling... are you hungry? |
| Tickle | I'll bet you're ticklish! | |||
