I didn't even know that this was an option. I really should scroll down more often.

A mod?

Definitely.
Not sure which mod though, probably http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/23390/? though.

Yes, it's definitely from Guard Dialogue Overhaul (worth installing)

Yeah I think this is the correct model.

On playthrough 2, I had this installed and was surprised to discover I missed the guards' random arrogance. It's not like they'd have a newspaper to know what the Dragonborn looks like...

That is the BEST mod. I talk to guards on purpose now!
"Hope you're finding the city in order, Thane."
THAT'S RIGHT! Keep it clean, boys!

No, I've played vanilla Skyrim and still saw it.

So now the followup question is what the guard does when you pick that option.
18
He says whatever you say dragon born and walks away. I think he's trying not to be racist haha

Protip – instead of using the cursor to select a dialogue option, use the arrow keys + Enter. That way you'll never miss stuff like this.

I'm pretty sure there's a mod on Nexus that magically fixes that. Doesn't matter if it's highlighted or not, half off-screen or not, if my cursor is above it and I click it just works.

Link or name? More than once I've had to kill someone because I killed the wrong dialogue option and they turned hostile.

What mod are you using to get two swords on the back like that?

It's actually more complicated than I would like to admit. I spent several hours to get this to work correctly. It's a combination of 4 mods and I'll explain more when I'm not on mobile.

...you home yet?

Sorry to keep you waiting. The four mods I use are:
- Race menu
- XP 32 skeleton
- Dual sheath redux
- Immersive animations
Technically xp32 skeleton is the mod that let's you have the sword on your back, but you need race menu because you configure the weapon placement in game via race menu. These two mods will make your right hand weapon show up on the back but your left hand weapon won't. To get the off hand weapon to show up, you need dual sheath redux. The last mod, Immersive animation will allow you to make your character unsheath both weapons from your back instead of just your main hand.
The reason why it took me so long to get this to work correctly is because I'm terrible at modding and dual sheath redux can be a tricky mod to install. Xp32 skeleton can also trip people up if they don't choose to install the race menu plug in that allows you to configure it in game. Maybe I'm just slow when it comes to this stuff and you'll get it with no issues. Good luck!

Awesome! Thanks for the info. Will now go try to make my character look badass.

Your comment made me chuckle. Have an upvote, you poor soul.

I got swords on my back done with just dual-sheath redux and the skeleton overhaul they recommended downloading and it works fine, but its a tad glitchy at times. Does your way work better?

I'm using those mods as well but I'm not experiencing any issues. I do use a couple more mods to complement those two. What issues are you running into?
1
I'll have issues where the swords are on my back and then when I draw them they vanish so it looks like my character is slashing the air with nothing, and then they won't reappear until I unequip/reequip them. I use immersive weapons and oddly enough that only happens with the vanilla weaponry. There have been a few other odd things that happened but I haven't played in a bit so that's the only one that comes to mind.

It's probably dual sheath redux

HAVENT YOU SEEN ANY OF MY MOVIES!!!!! DESOLATION OF SMAUG THAT WAS A GOOD ONE!!!! REIGN OF FIRE!!!! THEY KILLED ME FUCKING HUMANS KILLED ME!!!!.

Not that OP claims it's vanilla, but I still have to say I'm pretty sure that's a mod (link to nexus of possible mod, if anyone is interested). And all the other options also seem a bit tweaked to me, if memory serves me correctly.
It seems quite a fun mod too, tbh. I always thought guards were a bit presumptuous telling me what to do after they saw me take down a dragon. :D
No lollygaggin'
I once had a guard say that to me in Falkreath after killing a dragon. I ended up going on a town killing spree.
Is that indicative of a problem?
Um the guards problem
Same as GTA.
You assume I'm a criminal 'cause I'm black? I'll show you the meaning of criminal- at a thousand rounds per minute via M134 minigun.
Sounds like a perfectly rational response
