=== Corrin & Alfred === --- C --- [Alfred] You've got a big family, right? What's it like having older siblings or a younger brother? [Corrin] The older siblings were steadfast, while my younger brothers were arrogant, but still cute. --- B --- [Alfred] I was born into royalty, but you chose your own fate for yourself. I think that's amazing. [Corrin] Thank you. My heritage was complicated, but in a way, that's what made me free to choose. --- A --- [Alfred] I was never in a position to choose my path. I wonder sometimes if that was a good thing. [Corrin] Everyone's lives turn out differently. You never know when you'll reach your crossroads. [Corrin] One day, you'll be in a position to decide your kingdom's future. That's a big choice in itself. [Alfred] I'll take those words to heart. And I'll think it through before that time comes. === Corrin & Anna === --- C --- [Corrin] Have you...ever been to Nohr or Hoshido? You're the spitting image of someone I know. [Anna] Nope. Those names aren't ringing a bell. Might have been one of my sisters? We all look alike. --- B --- [Corrin] I'm sorry I mistook you for someone else. I hope you can forgive me, Lady Anna. [Anna] Hey, you called me Lady Anna! Nice! Next time I stock something good, you'll be first to know. --- A --- [Anna] Corrin! I got in something great! It's a flower that draws good luck to you. [Corrin] What a pretty flower! I'd love a whole bouquet of them. But I don't have any of your currency... [Anna] It's not for sale. I just wanted you to see it. You know, so that good things will come along! [Corrin] It must work, because one good thing has happened already. I made friends with you! === Corrin & Bunet === --- C --- [Corrin] I've heard you're a great chef, Bunet. What a wonderful skill to have. I'm envious. [Bunet] It is, but being a great chef comes at a cost. I've yet to create a flavor I'm fully satisfied with. --- B --- [Bunet] Corrin, your Emblem Ring sparkles like a dessert made with the finest sugar. It is exquisite. [Corrin] Oh, I hadn't noticed that, Bunet. But you're right, it is very beautiful. --- A --- [Bunet] Your ring, Corrin, it's marvelous. When I look at it, I start dreaming up entirely new desserts. [Corrin] That's nice, but I'm worried my ring will distract you on the battlefield. Enemies will target you. [Bunet] Then I won't look at it during battle. The cool feel of it in my hand will be inspiration enough. [Corrin] Haha, a wonderful solution. Your heightened senses should be a strength, not a weakness. === Corrin & Boucheron === --- C --- [Corrin] You're a good companion, Boucheron. When I fight at your side, I feel myself getting stronger. [Boucheron] You're pretty reassuring yourself. I hope you'll stick with me when I walk alone late at night. --- B --- [Boucheron] Did our last battle tire you out? I was headed off for some fishing to relax. Want to come? [Corrin] Count me in! Even if we get lost on the way, the two of us together will figure something out. --- A --- [Boucheron] Once again, I'm really sorry. I can't believe I got lost coming back from fishing in broad daylight. [Corrin] It's fine! I enjoyed the sight of the sun filtering through the trees on the long walk home. [Corrin] The sunny forest was a nice change of pace from the long nights where I grew up. [Boucheron] You're so nice to me, Corrin. I hope I can learn to always see the bright side like you do. === Corrin & Céline === --- C --- [Corrin] I've heard you like tea, Céline. That's one thing we definitely have in common. [Céline] Indeed? How splendid that we share an interest! Do tell me all about your favorite blends. --- B --- [Céline] I'm fascinated to hear of your favorite teas. You describe them so well I can practically taste it. [Corrin] It's a shame I'll never get to sip them again now. A post-battle cup of tea is very soothing. --- A --- [Céline] I've brewed some tea for you, Corrin. Though you can't taste it, the smell may do you good. [Corrin] Ah! This smells just like the tea that my butler would make whenever I was exhausted. [Céline] Excellent. I brewed it based on your description. I felt so sad that you could no longer drink it. [Corrin] I'm touched that you went through all the trouble. Nobody brews tea like you, Céline. === Corrin & Chloé === --- C --- [Chloé] You know what'd make a nice picture? You and a dashing prince. Or maybe an obedient butler! [Corrin] Chloé, if we're going to be fighting side by side, I think maybe you should be the one next to me. --- B --- [Chloé] Can you really become a dragon?! That's so perfect! We should find you a king or a maiden. [Corrin] You've got that distant stare again. I'm afraid to ask who you're picturing me with this time. --- A --- [Corrin] We've been working together for so long, but you never picture yourself with me, Chloé. [Chloé] Sorry, Corrin. But I'm just a knight. You need someone much more epic to stand beside. [Corrin] Nonsense. How many battles have we fought together now? We're already great partners. [Chloé] Aww. That's so nice of you to say. The two of us side by side must be pretty magical indeed! === Corrin & Citrinne === --- C --- [Citrinne] Thank you for lending me your power, Corrin. I must repay you. What gift would you like? [Corrin] Oh, stop. There's no need to "repay" anything. I'm just happy to fight by your side, Citrinne. --- B --- [Citrinne] I know you don't need me to repay you, but... I couldn't stop myself. How do you like them? [Corrin] All these accessories? Hats, swimsuits, masks... Where did you even get all of this?! --- A --- [Citrinne] I feel so foolish. I was in such a rush to repay you, I forgot that Emblems can't hold anything. [Corrin] It's OK. I got to admire so many fun things! Thank you for showing me a wonderful time. [Citrinne] That's kind of you to say. I want to repay you again, but in non-material ways this time. [Corrin] Emblems thrive on the feelings of others. Your gratitude is the only gift I need! === Corrin & Clanne === --- C --- [Clanne] Standing by you feels sort of like being next to the Divine Dragon. Like you're...more than me. [Corrin] Perhaps because I have dragon blood? Oh, did you know I used to take the shape of a dragon? --- B --- [Clanne] Um, Lady Corrin, when you turned into a dragon, how did it feel? Weird? Tingly? [Corrin] The thing I feel most is how people look at me. Surprise, fear, awe... I've yet to get used to it. --- A --- [Clanne] I'm always with you, but I still haven't seen you turn into a dragon. Could you do it right now? [Corrin] I can't fully transform now, just alter parts of my body. I'm sorry to disappoint. [Clanne] No! I'm sorry for making a selfish request! I wanted to know more about my new friend. [Corrin] I'm glad you consider us friends! Oh! I've never asked... Do you turn into anything? === Corrin & Diamant === --- C --- [Diamant] Building and protecting a kingdom requires a powerful army...but that calls for great restraint. [Corrin] I agree. Too many conflicts end with one side being wiped out. --- B --- [Corrin] I was forced to make a terrible choice in a brutal war. After that, there was no going back. [Diamant] I see... Ruling my kingdom may require such impossible choices someday. I need to be ready. --- A --- [Corrin] I don't regret my choice, but I've sometimes wondered if there was another option. [Diamant] What strategy would follow? Not attacking, but not retreating? Surrender to both sides? [Corrin] When you say it like that...I'm honestly not sure what would have followed such a choice. [Diamant] It may have been hard, but you didn't run from making a tough call. I admire your will, Corrin. === Corrin & Etie === --- C --- [Corrin] You're in incredible physical form, Etie. It's almost distracting when we fight together. [Etie] Hah, thanks! Your praise gets me so fired up that I've gotta go jog away the energy. See you! --- B --- [Etie] Corrin! Did I just see your arm muscles bulge out and get huge for a second there?! [Corrin] You must've seen me partway in dragon form. I know it's impressive, but don't try to imitate it. --- A --- [Etie] It was nice of you to say I'm in peak physical form, but I don't hold a candle to you. [Corrin] That's not true. My dragon transformations aside, I'm really not all that muscular. [Etie] But you're stronger than me in spirit. I've got a long road ahead if I want to be as tough as you. [Corrin] Etie, I've seen how strong your will is. Whatever you want to make of yourself, you can do it. === Corrin & Fogado === --- C --- [Fogado] You know, I used to get in trouble for sneaking into the fortress where your ring was kept. [Corrin] Is that right? Well, from now on, no sneaking is required. You can see me whenever you like. --- B --- [Corrin] The battle the other day...it was in a beautiful spot. I guess that's strange to say during a war. [Fogado] No, we should appreciate beauty when we can. One day I'll show ya all of Solm's prettiest sites. --- A --- [Corrin] I can't wait to see your country's idyllic places. But it's Solm's blue sea I'm most excited about. [Fogado] Let's go, then! It's stunning, and the fishing is great...though I'm no good at it myself. [Corrin] It's easy. You just put something shiny on the line to catch the fish's eye. Shiny...like my ring! [Fogado] Ha! No way am I throwin' your Emblem Ring in the water! But we will go to the sea. === Corrin & Framme === --- C --- [Framme] I'm busy looking after the Divine Dragon, but I feel like I should look after you too, Lady Corrin. [Corrin] That's very kind of you, Framme, but you're so young. I think I should be looking after you. --- B --- [Framme] Please don't worry about asking me to do stuff for you. I may be young, but I'm super reliable. [Corrin] You are very reliable in battle, Framme. But in day-to-day things, you are a bit, uh, clumsy. --- A --- [Corrin] I hope you'll come to rely on me one day, Framme. Unless you're worried you can't? [Framme] No, that's not it. I just wish we had our own secret signal. Like, a special look or a wink. [Corrin] A special wink between us...interesting. So how about this? Make eye contact and... [Framme] Hehehe, yes! That's the perfect secret signal for us, Lady Corrin! You're the best! === Corrin & Goldmary === --- C --- [Corrin] You're always so poised and relaxed in battle, Goldmary. How do you do it? [Goldmary] A luxurious hot spring bath refreshes my body and leaves me with a serenity that lasts all day. --- B --- [Goldmary] When I'm bathing in a hot spring, I feel as if all my worries are simply drifting away. [Corrin] I know what you mean! Back home, I'd soak until my fingers and toes were all wrinkled up. --- A --- [Goldmary] I should take you to visit my home village, Corrin. We have hot springs all over. [Corrin] That sounds idyllic! Of course, I'd love to go. [Corrin] This is a bit silly, but since I won't be able to bathe, maybe you could...dip my ring in for me? [Goldmary] That is a request I'm happy to honor. We'll make sure your ring comes out sparkling. === Corrin & Hortensia === --- C --- [Hortensia] Why does everyone who shows up here have to be so adorable?! There's too much competition. [Corrin] We do have a good-looking army, don't we? I think it's lovely. --- B --- [Corrin] I love the way you tell everyone they're adorable, Hortensia. It's great for morale. [Hortensia] Is that really what it looks like to you, or are you teasing me? I can't tell. --- A --- [Corrin] Your hair color is delightfully unique. I assume you use some kind of dye? [Hortensia] Yep. The two-tone effect is pretty cute, right? I'm surprised an Emblem knows about this stuff. [Corrin] Hair dye was popular in my world as well. My little sister used it a lot like you do. [Hortensia] I didn't know you had a little sister! I guess I'll have to fill that role for you now, won't I? === Corrin & Ivy === --- C --- [Ivy] Hello, Corrin. Did you need something from me? [Corrin] No, no. I just thought we could have a chat. If you're busy, though, I'll try another time. --- B --- [Ivy] It must be terribly boring to follow a surly one like me around. You have my apologies. [Corrin] On the contrary, I'm very entertained. I enjoy seeing all the subtle ways you express yourself. --- A --- [Ivy] We've only spent a few battles together, and yet I feel you've learned to see right through me. [Corrin] If that's true, it's not by any power of mine. It's because you've learned to open your heart. [Ivy] I do not trust people easily. Somehow it is different with you, though. I can't explain why. [Corrin] Regardless of the reason, I'm glad to hear it. I hope we can converse like this more often. === Corrin & Jade === --- C --- [Corrin] I've heard you write novels, Jade. Would you mind if I read them sometime? [Jade] I wouldn't mind at all. In fact, I'd actually love to know what you think of them, Corrin. --- B --- [Jade] Corrin? You look upset... If my novels aren't your style, you can tell me. I won't take it hard. [Corrin] No, no─seeing you reminds me how funny they are... And now I can't...stop laughing, hehe! --- A --- [Jade] Have you calmed down at all, Corrin? Or will I still cause a giggle fit just by standing here? [Corrin] All better now. Your novels were so good! You make me want to try writing stories of my own. [Jade] I hope you do! I would love to read any kind of novel you might write. [Corrin] Is there any greater feeling than to know your actions will bring someone joy? I doubt it. === Corrin & Jean === --- C --- [Corrin] You're aiming to become a doctor, right? I'd let you treat me, but I don't have any injuries. [Jean] Don't feel bad. Health is important! Most people envy the way Emblems can't get ill or wounded. --- B --- [Corrin] If both sides agreed not to target doctors, there'd be a lot fewer casualties in war. [Jean] That's a nice thought, Corrin. It's true, though. If we could manage that, we'd all be better off. --- A --- [Corrin] When a doctor saves a soldier, they also save the soldier's whole family. It's a good thing. [Jean] Yeah. Every life matters to a lot of people. I want to help there be fewer tragedies of war. [Corrin] If there was even one more doctor like you, I think that peace would be within our grasp. [Jean] Thank you, Corrin. That means a lot to me. I'll work my hardest to be a first-rate doctor! === Corrin & Kagetsu === --- C --- [Corrin] Spending time with you reminds me of my birthplace, Kagetsu. You have a similar air. [Kagetsu] If it is anything like my homeland, then its air must be wonderful indeed! --- B --- [Kagetsu] Corrin! Will you go out with me so you can tell me more about your birthplace? [Corrin] Go out with you?! I'll gladly tell you more, but I don't see how that's necessary. --- A --- [Kagetsu] It was fun to go out with you, Corrin! I was quite pleased by your stories of Hoshido. [Corrin] I'm glad. I enjoy talking about home. Thinking of those I miss, I feel power stir within me. [Kagetsu] In that case, you must speak of them more! I wish to see you at your very strongest. [Corrin] Hehe, I appreciate the thought. But I feel the same power just thinking of you, Kagetsu. === Corrin & Lapis === --- C --- [Corrin] I saw you picking plants after that last battle, Lapis. Are you using them for something? [Lapis] Yep! Emergency provisions. I did this a lot back in the country. Ahh! How did I slip up so fast? --- B --- [Lapis] No one knows I'm a bumpkin. If anyone asks about the wild plants...they're for crafts, OK? [Corrin] I see. I once wished I could hide my own origin. People assumed many things about me... --- A --- [Lapis] I hid my country roots out of shame...but it sounds like you had more dire reasons, Corrin. [Corrin] My two homelands were at war with each other. My upbringing was a tangled web of deception. [Corrin] But don't compare yourself to me. If you want to keep your origin a secret, I'll support you. [Lapis] No platitudes? Phew. Thank you, Corrin. I hope I'm as strong as you someday. === Corrin & Lindon === --- C --- [Lindon] So you fight by transforming, just like the Divine Dragon. I have many questions... [Corrin] I'd be happy to provide whatever answers I can. Your experiments are fascinating to me. --- B --- [Lindon] Since you're interested in my experiments, tell me this: which tome should I bake with next? [Corrin] I'd go with fire magic, but the gravity magic my little brother used to use might also work well. --- A --- [Lindon] I'm not as young as I like to pretend. Maybe it's time I stopped doing these strange experiments. [Corrin] Don't talk that way! You're never too old to do what you love. Besides, you're still young to me. [Lindon] In what sense?! Oh, hmm, I suppose that's true for an Emblem. In that case, let's get baking! [Corrin] Haha, that's the spirit. Now we just need to decide which tome to use for this one! === Corrin & Louis === --- C --- [Corrin] The way you're always one step behind me is a lot like the butler I once had. [Louis] Where your butler and I differ is that I stay one step back in order to remain virtually invisible. --- B --- [Corrin] You really don't have to be invisible, Louis. I'm glad to have you around. [Louis] I should have said that I wished to blend into the background... --- A --- [Corrin] I get you now, Louis. You want to fade into the background for your people-watching hobby. [Louis] Quite right. So you see, you needn't worry about my fading into the background. [Corrin] But I love it when people get along too! You should take me with you next time! [Louis] Ah! You and I, invisible to all but one another... An intriguing dynamic I had never considered. === Corrin & Alear === --- C --- [Corrin] I spent most of my youth cooped up in a castle. Everything felt fresh when I got to leave. [Alear] I can relate to that. It sounds like our circumstances aren't so different. --- B --- [Alear] So often in battle, the choices before me are so heavy that I find myself paralyzed. [Corrin] I know that feeling. Sometimes I wonder what would've happened if I'd chosen differently. --- A --- [Alear] Do you ever start second-guessing yourself after making an important decision? [Corrin] There's one choice I always reflect on. Every option would hurt those I cared for... [Corrin] But I don't regret it. I chose what I did for the sake of the people I trusted the most. [Alear] Thanks. Thinking about who I trust is a good signpost for any tough calls I have to make. === Corrin & Mauvier === --- C --- [Mauvier] Lady Corrin, you chose your own path in life. I could not even choose my own faith... [Corrin] Don't feel sad about the past. It's why you are who you are. It's why you met Lady Veyle. --- B --- [Corrin] You never chose your faith, yet you did choose to fight alongside us. That's just as important. [Mauvier] True, perhaps. However, Marni's life may have been saved had I made my decision sooner. --- A --- [Corrin] Everyone imagines how life may have gone if they'd chosen differently. Let go of your regret. [Corrin] Everyone's choices remain forever. Please don't look back. Look toward tomorrow, Mauvier. [Mauvier] Yes. Still, it is a fact that I served as one of the Four Hounds, and that I allowed a friend to die. [Mauvier] However, people such as yourself say they respect me. I want to be worthy of that. === Corrin & Merrin === --- C --- [Merrin] Lady Corrin, I will protect you. I know you're strong, but still, I feel it's my duty as a knight. [Corrin] Thank you kindly, but I can't be injured. What's important to me is that you protect yourself. --- B --- [Merrin] I know we're comrades in arms and equals. Still, I wish I was the protector keeping you safe. [Corrin] I understand. It feels good to be the protector. Who wouldn't want that? --- A --- [Merrin] Lady Corrin, I just heard you can turn into a dragon! Can you go all dragony for me, please? [Corrin] I'm sorry, but in this world, it seems I can't fully turn into a dragon. [Merrin] What?! Aw! But I'm dying to see it! No, I'm not giving up. I'll be patient and maybe it'll happen. [Corrin] I'm not sure that's ever... Oh, never mind. I hope one day I can go "all dragony" for you, Merrin. === Corrin & Timerra === --- C --- [Timerra] Corrin, I just want to thank you. I feel so lucky that my country was entrusted with your ring! [Corrin] I feel lucky as well, Timerra. After all, it was you who came to get me. Now, let's win this war! --- B --- [Timerra] Do you like to sing, because there's nothing I love more. And I adore singing with others too! [Corrin] I do. Songs were important in my world. They could be far more powerful than words alone. --- A --- [Timerra] You said you liked singing, but I've never heard you even once. Would you sing a song for me? [Corrin] Oh, well, I enjoy it, Timerra, but I'm not really very good at it. [Timerra] Singing isn't about being good or bad, it's about freeing your heart. Let me hear you, please! [Corrin] OK, I'll try. ♪You are the ocean's gray waves, destined to seek...♪ === Corrin & Pandreo === --- C --- [Pandreo] I hesitate to ask one such as yourself, but do you have a confession you'd like me to hear? [Corrin] Confession? Oh, right, you're a cleric. Nothing is weighing on me at the moment, but thank you. --- B --- [Pandreo] Lady Corrin, your emotional strength is truly profound. I must tell you, I'm filled with respect. [Corrin] Oh, I have a lot of experience, I guess. But I'm still learning. I really don't belong on a pedestal. --- A --- [Corrin] Pandreo, why have you been so formal with me? You seem so laid-back with everyone else. [Pandreo] Emblems are practically god-like beings! As a cleric, it is my duty to show you respect. [Corrin] I can see how you'd think that, but I feel like a regular person. I wish you'd relax around me. [Pandreo] If that is your wish, far be it from me to refuse. Ahem... It's tiiiime to party, Corrin! AROOO! === Corrin & Panette === --- C --- [Panette] Your skills on the battlefield are impressive. Surely you are equally skilled in a street brawl? [Corrin] Street...brawl? My siblings and I used to fight, but I can't say if I was especially good at it. --- B --- [Panette] So, you and your siblings fought, did you? My elder brother and I have also slugged it out. [Corrin] Slugged it out? Oh, yes... I've done far worse than that to them... --- A --- [Corrin] I fought in a war once in which my siblings were also my enemy. It was so painful. Never again. [Panette] I'm so sorry. I can't imagine anything more awful than fighting in a war against my brother. [Corrin] With siblings, even small disputes can turn into big fights. The question is, is it really worth it? [Panette] Oh, Lady Corrin, that is a good point indeed. This has been a valuable lesson. Thank you. === Corrin & Rosado === --- C --- [Rosado] I'm not what you expect to see on a big wyvern. The contrast enhances my cuteness, doesn't it? [Corrin] Contrast. Interesting. I wonder if transforming into a dragon would have the same effect... --- B --- [Corrin] I don't think contrast enhances cuteness. My dragon form's only ever frightened people. [Rosado] I didn't know you were still thinking about that. Maybe it's that you only transform to fight? --- A --- [Corrin] I've been thinking about what you said, Rosado. It's true I only used my dragon form for combat. [Rosado] Yeah. It'd be cute to be a dragon during, say, snack time. But that might ruin the majesty of it. [Corrin] Maybe. It's a moot point now, since I can no longer transform. But thanks for indulging me. [Rosado] Not sure what you're so worried about. Not to pad your ego, but...you're adorable. === Corrin & Saphir === --- C --- [Corrin] This war has been such a trial for everyone. It's hard for me not to feel inadequate at times. [Saphir] Hehe, didn't know Emblems got insecure. For what it's worth, I fight better with you here. --- B --- [Saphir] Must be nice to be an Emblem. Without a body, you never have to worry about getting old. [Corrin] While that's true, aging is also part of what's beautiful about being human. I actually envy it. --- A --- [Saphir] You look so young, Corrin. I always forget that you're actually much older than me. [Corrin] I suppose I've existed in this world for a long time. I've spent most of it in slumber, though. [Saphir] Time changes you even if you sleep through it. So I guess you're kinda like a big sister to me. [Corrin] Haha, I don't mind that. After all this time, I'd love to have a new sibling to look after. === Corrin & Seadall === --- C --- [Seadall] I'm so grateful you rescued me at the fortress. If I may, I'd like to repay you with a dance. [Corrin] I was glad I could be of help. And I would love to see you dance, Seadall. --- B --- [Seadall] Being a dancer used to be enough for me. But thanks to you, I see I want to be a protector too. [Corrin] That's lovely, but the beauty of your dance saves people in more ways than you know. --- A --- [Seadall] When I read your fortune, Le Choix comes up─ the Choice card. It suggests difficult decisions. [Corrin] I've made hard choices, yes. And every choice I've made has come with sacrifice...and loss. [Seadall] I made a choice at the fortress to join this fight. The risks are great, but it is the right path. [Corrin] I'm glad you don't regret it. But if it ever seems like too much, know that I'm here for you. === Corrin & Alcryst === --- C --- [Alcryst] You're so strong, Lady Corrin─as expected of a dragon from another world. Next to you, I... I... [Corrin] Don't be so down on yourself, Alcryst. We held our own in the last battle, didn't we? --- B --- [Alcryst] You shouldn't stare at me, Lady Corrin... It's a waste of time to scrutinize a lost cause like me. [Corrin] I'm only worried. You remind me of my younger brother...and, just like him, you matter to me. --- A --- [Corrin] You always envy other people, Alcryst, but I actually envy you in many ways. [Corrin] I often wish I was a regular human like you. Alas, I was fated to be this way. [Alcryst] I was unaware of your burden, Lady Corrin. My envy made me thoughtless. I apologize. [Alcryst] It will take me some time, but...with you by my side, I feel like I can learn to fight with pride. === Corrin & Amber === --- C --- [Amber] My home was a quiet alpaca ranch surrounded by cliffs. What was your home like, Corrin? [Corrin] I had two homes, one covered in darkness, the other bathed in light... Wait, what's an alpaca? --- B --- [Amber] Alpacas are the best! They have four legs, long necks, fluffy wool all over their bodies... [Corrin] If you exclude the fluff, that sounds like me in my dragon form. How big are their wings? --- A --- [Amber] OK, so alpacas don't have wings...but if they did, I'm sure they'd be super cute. [Corrin] You really love alpacas, don't you? Your eyes always light up when you talk about them. [Amber] I do love them─a lot─but it helps that you're fun to talk to, Corrin! [Corrin] Haha, I'm happy to hear that! I like talking to you too, Amber. You're a great ally. === Corrin & Vander === --- C --- [Vander] Your battle style does impress me. Yet in your human form, I find that I worry about you. [Corrin] Oh? You remind me of my combat trainer, always keeping an eye on me. --- B --- [Corrin] I enjoy fighting by your side, Vander. It makes me feel like I'm the one being protected. [Vander] What an honor to hear you say so, Lady Corrin. May we protect one another, always. --- A --- [Corrin] You're always busy. If you tire, I can rub your shoulders. Or face. Whatever is customary here. [Vander] Eh? Emblems cannot touch, can they? And rub my face? Is that common in your world? [Corrin] Ah! Not common. Not really. Just sometimes. Depending on where you're from... [Vander] Haha, Lady Corrin, the joy brought on by your offer has eased my fatigue plenty well. === Corrin & Veyle === --- C --- [Veyle] You were amazing on the battlefield today. But, uh, do you mind hanging out a while longer? [Corrin] Of course, Veyle, I'd love to. We so rarely get a chance to relax and chat with one another. --- B --- [Corrin] I've enjoyed talking to you off the battlefield. I see now that you've needed company, Veyle. [Veyle] I guess I have. I also just feel safe when I'm with you. Maybe it's because we're both dragons? --- A --- [Corrin] Veyle, you mentioned that we're both dragons, but do you ever turn into one? [Veyle] I never want to be a dragon. I buried my dragonstone long ago. I don't know where it is. [Corrin] You locked up your power to protect everyone? Oh, Veyle. I will be your dragon power. [Veyle] If you're the source of my power, then I can be a good dragon. And that's all I've ever wanted. === Corrin & Yunaka === --- C --- [Yunaka] Gotta say, Corrin, I get a little starry-eyed hanging around with you. [Corrin] Oh? You seem to be keeping your composure well enough, but I'm flattered nonetheless. --- B --- [Corrin] I wouldn't have guessed it by your usual cheer, but you're quite cool and calculating in battle. [Yunaka] What? Me? Nah. That imagination's gotta be what makes you such a clever fighter though. --- A --- [Corrin] I worry about you, Yunaka. Sometimes you seem to be...forcing yourself. Trying too hard. [Yunaka] I appreciate the concern, Corrin. You're not wrong. There are times when I put up a front. [Yunaka] But that front is just as real to me as the person I am underneath. And it's who I choose to be. [Corrin] I respect that choice more than I can say. If it ever gets to be too much, please lean on me. === Corrin & Zelkov === --- C --- [Zelkov] Is there any endeavor outside of war that you pursue with *fervor,* Corrin? [Corrin] Outside of war? That's a strange way to put it, but I suppose war can inspire a kind of fervor. --- B --- [Corrin] Battle is a struggle of life and death. It demands you give your all, whether you want to or not. [Zelkov] True. But giving your all is not what I mean by fervor. There must be *passion* involved. --- A --- [Zelkov] I have killed many people. So many, in fact, that I sometimes feel *violence* is all I am good for. [Corrin] If that were true, you would be a fundamentally bad person. I don't think that's the case. [Zelkov] Your words are comforting, but I am afraid that is *precisely* the kind of person I am. [Corrin] You have your other pursuits, right? You've taught me so much about having passion.
