I usually ask for elaboration as a social puzzle for what my party picked up about bonds/traits/flaws (tbf they don't hit on random barkeeps). If they correctly target something they don't have to roll. If they lead with "let's ditch the twerp and take a spin around the sheets" to the NPC who tearfully asked them to help her protect her little brother that's going to be a roll to maintain relations lol. Or my party's fav for trying to join factions: "so you've seen me backstab my good friends, I'm in fact well and widely known for backstabbing, but I would never do that to you, I'm 100% devoted to the cause and also here's my extensive list of things I want for allowing you to license my name in your faction with a clause I reserve the right to refuse any duties I don't feel help me personally even though you're a noble order of paladins dedicated to helping the unfortunate for no reward" lmao (actual negotiation).
