Here's a simple example of how you can do that.
mob/pc
    verb
        talktotownsperson()
            var/response = pick("GO AWAY!!!", "Talk to me later", "etc")
            usr << response

Couldnt he do:


alert << response or something?

That way itll pop up in a nice little alert box like he wants.

The verb needs to be defined under the townspeople mobs.

mob
townspeople
verb
Talk()
set src in oview(1)//the bone crusher
var/say = pick(list("BOO","GAH","THE BONE CRUSHER"))
usr << say
