=== Lyn & Alfred === --- C --- [Alfred] I didn't expect there to be an Emblem like you in Elusia. I think we'll get along famously. [Lyn] True, I may seem like a different type of noble, but I agree that we will find a common ground. --- B --- [Alfred] Morning, Lyn! Smell that fresh, dewy air! [Lyn] Wait, it's not even dawn. You have to let the night finish before you can say "good morning." --- A --- [Lyn] I'm an early riser too, so I think you were right when you said we're a lot alike. [Alfred] Hahaha, you really think so? I knew it! [Alfred] What do you say we work out together? I bet you could get pretty buff with my routine! [Lyn] I don't think I can put on any more muscle, but it sounds fun, so...why not? === Lyn & Anna === --- C --- [Anna] Step right up! All sorts of rare goods in one place for your buying pleasure! What'll it be? [Lyn] Hmm. I know your face, don't I? No, there's no way. I must be imagining things. --- B --- [Lyn] I appreciate that you keep up the sales pitch, even to an Emblem. Alas, I have no money. [Anna] Hey, no problem. If you don't have hard currency, I'd accept working the price off. --- A --- [Anna] Have you given any thought to working in my shop? I'd make it worth your while! [Lyn] What would I do? Sales? Security? If we were being robbed, I could only yell at the thief. [Anna] Au contraire! One mean look from you is worth a dozen hired brutes. [Lyn] Do you think so? Still, the answer is no. It's you who makes this shop work, and no one else. === Lyn & Bunet === --- C --- [Bunet] You have an air of earthiness about you, Lyn. If you were a food, you would be...a garnish. [Lyn] A garnish? Me? Bunet, I haven't the slightest idea what you're talking about. --- B --- [Bunet] As a chef, I'm keenly aware of flavors as well as colors. And you, Lyn, could use more red. [Lyn] Do you think so? I should think garnishes come in many different colors. --- A --- [Lyn] Is something wrong, Bunet? I've noticed you staring off into space quite a bit as of late. [Bunet] I've been thinking... What if everything in the world is just an ingredient in one giant dish? [Lyn] Well, I have no form, so I can't be an ingredient. The same goes for the sky, wind, and clouds. [Bunet] I suppose the sun and stars are not ingredients either, then. Yes, I see now. Thank you, Lyn. === Lyn & Boucheron === --- C --- [Boucheron] I'm really enjoying our journey. Wherever we go, my friends keep me from getting lost. [Lyn] It's nice, isn't it─not having to put on a brave face. You can simply enjoy yourself. --- B --- [Boucheron] I love reading stories. If there are any you could share with me, I'm all ears. [Lyn] I do have one story I could tell you, it's about all the amazing things I experienced on my journey. --- A --- [Boucheron] I'm still sniffling over that story you told me, Lyn! [Boucheron] I've decided that I'm going to do great things too, just like you. [Lyn] Thanks for listening. And I'd say it's good to have a goal. [Lyn] Truth is stranger than fiction, after all. I bet your journey will be more thrilling than any story. === Lyn & Céline === --- C --- [Céline] I've steeled myself to fight for peace, but I fear sometimes that this war will never end. [Lyn] Everything ends, one way or another. I know you're nervous, but don't lose faith. --- B --- [Céline] I cannot help but envy you, Lyn. Your life seems so free, so unrestrained. [Lyn] Freedom goes hand in hand with danger. But I know some freedoms are worth the risk. --- A --- [Céline] Thank you for taking tea with me. I always find great joy in our chats. [Lyn] So do I. We'll do this again soon, I hope. [Céline] Of course. Hearing tales of your world makes me reconsider my own approach to life. [Lyn] Meanwhile, I'm learning a lot about tea. There's so much beyond the plains I never knew. === Lyn & Chloé === --- C --- [Chloé] I wonder what kind of food we'll find in the next town. Do you have any favorite foods, Lyn? [Lyn] Good question. Meatballs, boar-meat dumplings, sausage... Most kinds of meat, I suppose. --- B --- [Lyn] You're always eating the juiciest-looking things. My mouth would water if it could. [Chloé] They're all so good! I wish I could sample some things from your world too. --- A --- [Chloé] Hey, Lyn! Look what I got─it's gecko rolled in pepper and fried in frog oil. [Lyn] Oh, is that...for me? Oh no. What a shame. Emblems can't eat food. [Chloé] Oh...I'm so sorry. I forgot. Here, I'll describe every last detail of the taste to you as I eat. [Lyn] Every detail? No, thank you. Maybe some other time, when you eat something more common. === Lyn & Citrinne === --- C --- [Citrinne] How can I convince people my face isn't scary? I try to pay it no mind, but it happens so often... [Lyn] Try to guide them out of their initial discomfort. A confident, steady smile might do the trick! --- B --- [Citrinne] Lyn... I tried to follow your advice about smiling. People were even more terrified of me! [Lyn] Oh, I see. That is a tricky situation. Perhaps you shouldn't take my advice on this one... --- A --- [Citrinne] Wonderful news, Lyn! I've found a way to not be upset by frightened reactions to my face! [Lyn] That's much different from your original goal. I like this one better. How did you do it? [Citrinne] I imagine that the other person is merely acting scared of my face. As a joke. And jokes are fun! [Lyn] If it works, it works. I don't think you have to worry. You're kind, and everyone knows it. === Lyn & Clanne === --- C --- [Lyn] Clanne, you look sad. Are your chores getting to you? [Clanne] Nope, I love doing chores for the Divine Dragon. In fact, I'm worried I might run out. --- B --- [Lyn] You look a little down. Is there something you'd like to talk about? [Clanne] I miss my parents. Is that weird? Right now should be a happy time, not a sad one. --- A --- [Lyn] I was born on the plains, and I've always missed them since I left. [Clanne] You get that way too? Wow, I do feel better. I thought I might be pathetic. [Lyn] No, it just means we love where we came from. When you can, go and visit your parents. [Clanne] Maybe I will. Right now, though, I can't imagine being away from the Divine Dragon. === Lyn & Diamant === --- C --- [Diamant] Emblem Lyn... King Hyacinth used your power to wound and capture my father. I... I can't... [Lyn] I understand...and I'm sorry. I was under the Fell Dragon's power. I know that's of little comfort... --- B --- [Diamant] There's a familiar warmth to your power, Lyn. Your determination reminds me of my father. [Lyn] I'm honored to hear that, Diamant. I take it as a sign that we're growing to trust each other. --- A --- [Diamant] I apologize for my behavior, Lyn. I strive for peace, yet I held on to bitterness toward you. [Lyn] Don't apologize, Diamant. I understand. If I had lost someone precious to me, I'd do the same. [Diamant] Starting today, I want us to be true comrades in arms─to fight side by side. Will you accept me? [Lyn] Of course! I would enjoy nothing more. We'll be able to grow much stronger as a team. === Lyn & Etie === --- C --- [Etie] You're so graceful, Lyn. And with a little more training, you'd have muscles on top of muscles. [Lyn] I'm trained in the sword and bow, but I never thought about muscle training. Interesting idea. --- B --- [Lyn] You're exercising every time I lay eyes on you. What spurs you to work so hard? [Etie] I could get toned, or I could lie around doing nothing. It's an easy choice. --- A --- [Lyn] Working out is important to you, but I worry that you might be overdoing it. [Etie] Trust me, what looks like too much to you is just right for me. I know my limits. [Etie] Every session, I push them just a little bit further so I can reach new heights. [Lyn] If you say so. I'm not going to stop worrying, but I trust your ability to overcome anything. === Lyn & Fogado === --- C --- [Lyn] Are you truly a prince? Really? I'm sorry, it's just I still find it hard to believe. [Fogado] Sheesh, when you ask like that, I start to doubt it myself. I mean, I am the prince of Solm, right? --- B --- [Fogado] I'm not the sort to worry about acting all prince- like. That's not my thing. Being me is my thing. [Lyn] Well, you have a lot of personality. I like it. It's far better than having too little personality. --- A --- [Lyn] I'm told you pretend to be an ordinary citizen so you can gather intel. Very clever. I should try it. [Fogado] Please. There's no way someone as remarkable as you could pass for an average person. [Lyn] You think I can't blend in? That's funny. You would stand out in any crowd. [Fogado] Oh, I don't know about that. My cover's never been blown yet. === Lyn & Framme === --- C --- [Framme] You're such a huge help to the Divine Dragon. Almost as much as me. Almost. [Lyn] Your dedication is admirable. I promise, I'll never come between you and the Divine One. --- B --- [Lyn] Serving the Divine Dragon is hard work. And yet, you never seem to grow weary of it. [Framme] I don't! Doing stuff for the Divine Dragon is super inspiring. I could keep it up forever. --- A --- [Framme] Dragons live much longer than humans. So, one day, I'll have to leave the Divine Dragon's side. [Lyn] Framme, the more you love someone, the harder it is to imagine being apart from them. [Lyn] But if you spend your time fretting about it, you won't enjoy the time you have together. [Framme] You're right, Lady Lyn. I'm gonna enjoy every second I have with the Divine Dragon. === Lyn & Goldmary === --- C --- [Goldmary] I envy how cool and intimidating you are in battle, Lyn. I'm much too charming for all that. [Lyn] No shortage of confidence in you, is there? It's well earned, though. You work hard at it. --- B --- [Lyn] You've refined your technique, Goldmary. I can't wait to see it in the next battle. [Goldmary] Thank you. With my form honed to such elegant perfection, I won't even need strength training. --- A --- [Goldmary] I've put on a poor performance lately. Graceful technique just doesn't seem to be enough... [Lyn] That's what you get for cutting corners with your strength training. [Lyn] I know you're busy, and training takes up time, but try to find a routine that works for you. [Goldmary] You're right. Shortcuts are not my style anyway. Will you teach me a good routine? === Lyn & Hortensia === --- C --- [Hortensia] Wow, you're the Emblem from my father's ring? You're almost as cute as I am... [Lyn] That's quite a compliment, considering how adorable you are. --- B --- [Hortensia] I've been studying you, Emblem Lyn. I'll bet you've had your share of gentleman callers? [Lyn] I've had a few suitors. They disappeared fast when I challenged them to swordplay, though. --- A --- [Hortensia] Give me some advice, Lyn. How do I get people absolutely wrapped around my finger? [Lyn] Can never get enough attention, can you? I think you're charming already, but let's see... [Lyn] Back home, the popular folks were those who thought of nature and others before themselves. [Hortensia] You make a compelling point. OK, tell me more. === Lyn & Ivy === --- C --- [Ivy] Your ring is something of an heirloom in my family. I suppose that makes things awkward. [Lyn] Not at all. I spent many years in your father's company. King Hyacinth treated me well. --- B --- [Ivy] I still find it odd to fight alongside a family heirloom─but I'm glad you're here, Lyn. [Lyn] Elusia's royal family has a special place in my heart. I'm happy to lend you my strength. --- A --- [Lyn] Being an Emblem's not so bad, but at times, I wish I could wander the world more freely. [Ivy] It took leaving my country altogether for me to realize how much I had been missing. [Ivy] I have no easy solution for you. Perhaps we could take walks together, for a start. [Lyn] Oh, that'd be great. Thank you, Ivy. I'm glad I can confide in you about things like this. === Lyn & Jade === --- C --- [Lyn] Such a stern expression, Jade... If I upset you in that last battle somehow, you must tell me. [Jade] No, you're fine, Lyn. I was just admiring your smile. It's...very refreshing. --- B --- [Jade] I think laughter is the highest form of human expression. It's mysterious and profound... [Lyn] I can see that you take laughter quite seriously. Your passion for comedy is inspiring. --- A --- [Lyn] Your novel had me in stitches, Jade! I'm amazed at how well you hide your humorous side. [Jade] I get that a lot. Like you said, I'm always serious about laughter. Some people think I never laugh. [Lyn] Well, I, for one, think I've gotten much better at reading your happier expressions. [Jade] You have? Hmm. You're a funny warrior, Lyn... but I guess it takes one to know one. Hm. === Lyn & Jean === --- C --- [Jean] Everybody can tell right off that I'm from a Firenese island by my accent. [Lyn] That's nothing to be ashamed of. You should wear the marks of your homeland proudly. --- B --- [Lyn] I'd never heard an accent like yours before. I'm taken with its own particular rhythm. [Jean] Is that how we sound to outsiders? I'm glad you think we don't seem silly. --- A --- [Lyn] It's hard imitating someone else's speech. You can end up making yourself feel unwelcome. [Jean] I've tried to mimic the way everyone else talks too, but I couldn't keep it up. [Lyn] It's better that way. The things we can't change about ourselves are what make us special. [Jean] Hmm, I will be helping a lot of people on this journey. They'll all learn about my home! === Lyn & Kagetsu === --- C --- [Lyn] Hey, Kagetsu. You can see the future, right? Can you give me a prediction? [Kagetsu] Naturally! Let me see... Your homeland will have lovely weather tomorrow! Take my word for it! --- B --- [Kagetsu] OK, this time I will predict something you can see yourself. Very soon, you will be frustrated! [Lyn] What a strange prediction. How am I supposed to... Oh, I get it. That was a joke, right? --- A --- [Kagetsu] If you disbelieve my prophetic power, then try asking me your own question. [Lyn] If you insist. You usually predict small details, right? So, what's for breakfast tomorrow? [Kagetsu] Ah. You will soon see that we will be eating... onigiri! Yes, I love onigiri! [Lyn] Sounds more like a plan than a prediction. Or maybe you're just seeing what you want to see. === Lyn & Lapis === --- C --- [Lyn] I was born on the Sacae Plains. Nature blessed us with her bounty in every direction. [Lapis] Oh! You'd never starve growing up on the plains. So much plant life to eat. All that grass... --- B --- [Lyn] I think you may have misunderstood me before. There was more to eat than just the grass... [Lapis] Oh, that does make more sense. I guess I was too eager to relate with someone else... --- A --- [Lapis] Hey, Lyn? Have you ever lost out on something even though you worked really hard for it? [Lyn] I have. Plenty of large animals have slipped away from me while I was hunting. [Lyn] I'd prepare so much, plan for every movement... and then it would just vanish. So frustrating. [Lapis] Heh, I guess you have to seize the moment sometimes. I'll learn from your lesson, Lyn! === Lyn & Lindon === --- C --- [Lindon] Magic isn't just for defeating your enemies. You can create things, cook, and so much more. [Lyn] That's interesting. I can't use magic myself, but hearing you talk about it makes me wish I could. --- B --- [Lindon] It's been so long since I unleashed magic on people rather than ingredients. I may be rusty. [Lyn] You integrated magic into your daily life, huh? Maybe one day I'll chop food with my blade. --- A --- [Lindon] I'm as rusty as I feared. My magic just isn't what it once was. [Lyn] Don't be absurd. You still contribute on the front lines. The enemy's mages can't touch you. [Lindon] Not so. I'm too used to everyday magic, which I'm always careful not to use at full power. [Lyn] Trust me, no one who sees your "everyday magic" would imagine you're limiting yourself. === Lyn & Louis === --- C --- [Louis] Apropos of nothing, do you have any friends with whom you let down your guard? [Lyn] The many friends I've fought alongside, for a start. Or is that not what you meant? --- B --- [Lyn] There was one friend I had called Florina. She was adorable. We spent so much time together. [Louis] Perfect! That's the precise sort of thing I had hoped for! Please, tell me everything. --- A --- [Louis] There is such warmth in being surrounded by amiable friends. I'd disappear into it if I could. [Lyn] I've never met anyone who enjoyed watching people get along as much as you do. [Louis] Enjoyment comes in all forms, including this one. Now, shall we find you some new friends? [Lyn] Hey! That's my ring! How many people do you plan on introducing me to?! === Lyn & Alear === --- C --- [Lyn] Don't go thinking I'm some wishy-washy noble. I'm stronger than I look. [Alear] I never thought you seemed weak to begin with. I'd be nowhere without you, Lyn! --- B --- [Lyn] This is a good world. Though it makes me miss the green, rolling plains of my home. [Alear] They sound beautiful. It would be nice if I could see them for myself someday. --- A --- [Lyn] You look tired. If there's something dragging you down, you can tell me. I'm a good listener. [Alear] I still hesitate sometimes in battle because I'm so inexperienced. [Alear] Then I second-guess myself afterward, thinking of all the things I should have done instead. [Lyn] Don't worry about making mistakes. You have friends─and me─to guide you through them. === Lyn & Mauvier === --- C --- [Mauvier] You have an air of freedom about you. I admit I am jealous. [Lyn] You're jealous because you overthink what it means to have freedom. Loosen up a bit. --- B --- [Mauvier] You're so lively. Always talking with others. I keep quiet out of fear of being misunderstood. [Lyn] If you start sharing your thoughts with others, there'll be fewer misunderstandings. --- A --- [Lyn] You...don't need to stand at attention when we talk. Stop being so stiff, and relax a little. [Mauvier] Relax... You mean like this? [Lyn] Your expression is still a little stiff... You know, "stiff" just might be who you are. It's great. [Mauvier] My humor was unintentional, yet hearing you laugh does make me happy. === Lyn & Merrin === --- C --- [Merrin] Pardon my saying so, Lady Lyn... I can't help but feel a sense of rivalry with you. [Lyn] Really? I hope that changes with time. I'm certain we'd make better friends than rivals. --- B --- [Merrin] Lady Lyn, the way you move when you fight─ it's very impressive. I envy you. [Lyn] And I envy you and the way you ride that wolf. How I wish I could ride one across the plains. --- A --- [Merrin] We've been through so many battles together. We make a very cool duo, don't you think? [Lyn] I agree. Our rapport is envied by many, I'm sure. But what made you think of this? [Merrin] Because I think it's time we form an alliance. The two of us together, we'd be unstoppable. [Lyn] An alliance? Yes, I'm in! Just one important question: which one of us gets to be the leader? === Lyn & Timerra === --- C --- [Lyn] Your dress─it's quite flamboyant for a princess. Does the entire royal family wear such attire? [Timerra] Freedom is kinda our thing, so we wear what we like. Some flashy colors would suit you too! --- B --- [Timerra] You and me, we should go out and have some fun. I've even got the perfect outfit for you. [Lyn] I'm rather fond of what I'm wearing, but more importantly...Emblems can't change clothes. --- A --- [Timerra] I hate to say it, but at first, I didn't trust you. I mean, King Hyacinth controlled you, ya know? [Timerra] But after we talked and fought side by side... What I'm trying to say is, I really like you, Lyn. [Lyn] Thank you, Timerra. I really like you too. You're a princess and yet you're so very genuine. [Lyn] We should go out and have fun! We can pretend I'm wearing that outfit you chose for me. === Lyn & Pandreo === --- C --- [Pandreo] There's a time for partying and a time for praying. In my church, we make time for both. [Lyn] Partying? I've never heard of such a church. I bet you're calmer around the Divine Dragon. --- B --- [Lyn] I heard you singing, so I stopped by to listen... and saw you flailing about so strangely! [Pandreo] Oh, that's just my prayer dance. My friends call it the Dance of Darkness because it's so awful. --- A --- [Pandreo] What if my dancing isn't awful? What if it's just different from every other dance out there? [Lyn] Hmm, a new form of dance... Well, in that case, wouldn't every human movement be a dance? [Pandreo] Yes, exactly! We're all nonstop dancing and praying, each in our own way. And it's all good! [Lyn] What a lovely idea, Pandreo. Next time I watch you dance, I'll see it for how beautiful it truly is. === Lyn & Panette === --- C --- [Panette] How is it that everyone finds insects and ghosts so frightening? I find them quite adorable. [Lyn] I myself am not scared of them. But I must ask, how do you know ghosts are adorable? --- B --- [Lyn] I know you're fond of ghosts, but is it wise to push your eerie pastime on everyone you meet? [Panette] Ghosts are delightful, I assure you. My true aim is to test my peer's courage. --- A --- [Panette] Alas, no one is brave enough to hunt for ghosts with me. Seems it's just the two of us, Lyn. [Lyn] The two of us? I don't remember agreeing to go. I'm not sure I want to meet a ghost. [Panette] Odd. You have so much in common with them. If I don't return, know that I went down fighting. [Lyn] You're going? All by yourself? You know I can't let you do that. You win─I'll be your escort. === Lyn & Rosado === --- C --- [Rosado] I love the way your ponytail swishes around in combat, Lyn. Like it's dancing! [Lyn] Thanks, but you should probably keep your eyes on more important things in battle. --- B --- [Rosado] Ah, you have such smooth and healthy skin. What's your secret? [Lyn] Exercise, perhaps? I haven't given it much thought. --- A --- [Rosado] Why are people so obsessed with war? We just take from each other, over and over. [Lyn] It's rare for you to be so serious. Are you feeling all right? [Rosado] Rude! I'm a knight! But imagine what I'd be if beauty was the world's obsession instead? [Lyn] A benevolent ruler, I'd like to think. That would be an interesting world, to say the least. === Lyn & Saphir === --- C --- [Saphir] We should spar sometime. I feel like we'd be a good match. [Lyn] Agreed. I've fought enough tough opponents to know you'd be an interesting one. --- B --- [Saphir] So you grew up as a nomad in the plains, huh? I'll bet you're a better hunter than I am. [Lyn] Probably. I'm a complete novice at fishing, though. You'd have to give me some tips. --- A --- [Saphir] A battle's not so different from a hunt. That's probably why I've survived so many of both. [Lyn] Must have been tough living as a mercenary, wandering from one battlefield to the next. [Lyn] Much as someone like you must thrive in war, I hope you understand that peace is our goal. [Saphir] As a mercenary, I wouldn't have. But I'm a royal knight now, and I do understand. === Lyn & Seadall === --- C --- [Seadall] You move beautifully in battle. When I watch you, I see wind blowing across vast plains. [Lyn] You're very perceptive, Seadall. You must be quite gifted to see my homeland like that. --- B --- [Seadall] My patrons haven't been satisfied lately. I dance then tell their fortunes...but it's not enough. [Lyn] No, it's too much. Try telling fortunes for some and dancing for others. Let each talent shine. --- A --- [Seadall] Lyn, you said I shouldn't dance for people who simply want their fortunes told. [Seadall] But when people are looking for answers, I think dancing might bring them the joy they seek. [Lyn] Hm... Well, you could say their fortune suggests they seek out a dance performance. [Lyn] Seadall, you truly care about your customers. And one day they will be happy, I know it. === Lyn & Alcryst === --- C --- [Alcryst] You're the Emblem King Hyacinth once used... but now you're an ally? This is hard to accept. [Lyn] Until you can forgive me, Alcryst, think of me only as an Emblem, not as Lyn. --- B --- [Alcryst] Thank you for lending me your strength, Lyn. I've come to rely on your power...a lot. [Lyn] Thank you, Alcryst. I've come to rely on your power as well. You're quite skilled! --- A --- [Alcryst] Before...you told me to think you as "only an Emblem." But...I don't think I can. [Lyn] It's still too difficult to fight alongside me? I see. We'll ask the Divine Dragon if someone else─ [Alcryst] No! You're not "only" anything. The more we battle together, the more precious you become. [Lyn] Oh! Hm-hm, I'm so glad to hear that, Alcryst. We should talk more often! === Lyn & Amber === --- C --- [Amber] If we had alpacas on our team, we would never lose! Think you could help me train a few, Lyn? [Lyn] I've never thought of recruiting alpacas. I guess they could be quite powerful under the fluff... --- B --- [Lyn] Hmm. Strange. I used to think alpacas were odd, but now I wonder how I missed their charm... [Amber] Yeah! Alpacas are the best. They helped me survive a life in the countryside before this. --- A --- [Lyn] Aww, I wish we had alpacas here... I want to pet one so badly. What am I saying? [Amber] Hahaha! Too late, Lyn. I heard that! You've been overwhelmed by alpaca power! [Lyn] I hate to admit it, but it seems you're right...and I think I've come to appreciate your power too. [Amber] You have? Really?! But you're so much cooler than me. I'm sorta stunned...but happy too! === Lyn & Vander === --- C --- [Vander] It is wonderful to see you full of energy, yet I fear you may catch cold in such light clothes. [Lyn] No, Vander, I'm fine. I've always worn... Now that you mention it, can Emblems catch a cold? --- B --- [Lyn] It seems like you'd get tired standing up so straight all the time. Relax! Smile! [Vander] So be it, I shall indulge you. Behold. A smile. How is that? Better than you expected? --- A --- [Vander] Such times are these. Queen Lumera, gone; the Divine Dragon, awake; and Lady Lyn beside me. [Vander] Life does as it will. I am but a passenger on this journey. [Lyn] A thousand years ago, I never imagined I'd be awakened from the ring again. [Lyn] I think you're right. We're passengers, but we're also constantly blessed with new experiences. === Lyn & Veyle === --- C --- [Lyn] You look as if you have a lot on your mind, Veyle. Please, let me know if I can be of help. [Veyle] I don't know if I'm worthy of your kindness, Lyn. But thank you for the offer. --- B --- [Veyle] You're amazing, Lyn. You're so forthright and sure of yourself. I want to be like that. [Lyn] But you are, Veyle. You are living your truth despite everything stacked against you. --- A --- [Lyn] Nothing can strengthen you more than finding someone to believe in─someone to trust. [Veyle] I think I have. But, Lyn... Do you believe in me? [Lyn] I do. I've survived many hard times because of people like you─people I could put my faith in. [Veyle] Thank you, Lyn. I'll do my very best to live up to the faith and trust you put in me. === Lyn & Yunaka === --- C --- [Yunaka] You're so fierce and gorgeous, Lyn. I don't know whether to surrender or buy you flowers. [Lyn] I have no idea how to respond to that. I'll take it as a compliment, I think? --- B --- [Yunaka] Your sword's got a wicked edge. Oh, it looks so deadly. I've gotta try it. Can I? [Lyn] I'd love to say yes, but since it lacks a physical form, you'll have to be satisfied with looking. --- A --- [Lyn] Words have been attributed to me that I didn't say. Do you know why that might be, Yunaka? [Yunaka] That was probably me. I may have done some impressions of you. It was only for a giggle! [Lyn] I knew it. That does it, young lady─no more impressions! Of anyone! Not even for giggles! [Yunaka] No! Come on, I'm sorry! You can forgive me, can't you?! Friends forgive each other! === Lyn & Zelkov === --- C --- [Zelkov] You grew up on the open plains, did you not? It must have been *fatally* boring. [Lyn] Not at all, actually. Nomads lead exciting lives. There's always something going on. --- B --- [Zelkov] You always seem so *leisurely.* I find it rather unsettling. [Lyn] A wanderer's at home wherever she goes. If I show some "leisureliness," that's probably why. --- A --- [Lyn] I wish you could see my homeland. It might ease your restless search for deeper meaning. [Zelkov] The plains? I told you before, I would find simply staring at nature *fatally* boring. [Lyn] What about talking to me? Is that *fatally* boring? [Zelkov] Hm-hm. Interesting point. I admit our conversations are *sufficiently* entertaining.
