you know, i guess i have to take that back because i have been trying to do that and can't. at least not with her.
i ticked off myles and was able to give him money, but it turns out he wasn't really red to me. i just assumed since he yelled and screamed at me that he was going to go bad on me. gave him 500 gp and he was all kissy face with me again. [img]smile.gif[/img]
so... i did an experiment.
there's hope. i teed off anna in an old save and got her to get neutral to me. and i couldn't open the trade window like you said is happening to you.
so, i worked around that. i started giving her goodies. mostly she doesn't like a lot of stuff. BUT, she is Higardi after all, and has her likes and dislikes.
i gave her 3 potions of cure condition (in one group) and she took 'em. but still remained red.
i gave her some nice armor (well, pretty nice for that point in the game) and she took it, but was still red.
i gave her some barbed arrows, which she took, but didn't warm up.
i then gave her 2 pots of Renewal and she was all over me like i was a Goddess descended from Heaven Above. but most great of all, she wasn't red anymore!
now, i had those in my inventory because i have been practicing my alchemy on my 2 Bishops, and that's something they just learned to make.
however, Lord Braffit usually has several of those in his inventory. they are not cheap, but considering how important Anna is to a gadgie, well worth it.
umm. you might not want to steal them from him, in case he gets mad, too
i will have my bishops say prayers for you while you try this out!
