How does this solve your problem?
It still doesn't properly indicate a speaker change and adds additional
words. I don't see any reason to prefer that to your other proposal.
If you want to indicate the speaker change, you should do it properly with something
like {sei ny cusku} and that would add a bulk of text not present in the original.

I agree with iesk here: If you write down a stream of spoken text,
you should also include voice hints:

<serious low-pitched voice> .i lo nolraitru cu ponse nagi'e turni .i mutce frica
<ignorant child voice> .i ma do prali lonu do ponse lo tarci

Now, there _is_ an indication of speaker change.
