Ryoma x Silas C-A English Fates

C Support:

Ryoma:
Silas, might I have a word?▼

Silas:
Prince Ryoma? Is anything the matter?▼

Ryoma:
No. It just seems to me that we should sit
down and get to know each other.▼

Tell me, what kind of life did Corrin
lead when they
 lived with you in Nohr?▼

Silas:
You mean, when we were young?▼

Ryoma:
Yes. You two seem to get along very well;
it's clear even when you stand in formation.▼

I would be dishonest if I said my interest
wasn't piqued by that.▼

I've heard some of it from Corrin, but
I would appreciate your take on it as well.▼

Silas:
All right. Let's see...▼

They
 wasn't allowed outdoors then, so we
spent a lot of time playing with toys.▼

We enjoyed arts and crafts, too.▼

By which I mean, we made paper swords
and chased each other around.▼

Ryoma:
Hah, your idea of indoor play doesn't seem
very different from your outdoor games.▼

I can just picture the shenanigans you two
must have gotten up to.▼

Silas:
Maybe we haven't changed much since
those days.▼

Even now, we enjoy reminiscing about
the old times in the fortress.▼

And we still both have the most fun
practicing our swordplay on each other.▼

Ryoma:
So they
 found friends even when kidnapped
by Nohr...▼

Stay with them
, Silas. It's important that
they
 has a friend to confide in.▼

Silas:
Of course, Prince Ryoma. If anyone stands
to benefit from that, it's me.▼

I wouldn't have had a friend in that fortress
at all if not for them
.▼

Ryoma:
What do you mean?▼

Silas:
Well, you see—uh-oh, could we table
this for later?▼

I'm going to be late for the war council.▼

Ryoma:
Very well. Until next time.▼



B Support:

Ryoma:
I've been thinking about what you said,
Silas...▼

Silas:
About how I credit my friendship with
Corrin entirely to them
?▼

Ryoma:
Right. I'd like to hear more about this,
if you don't mind explaining.▼

Silas:
The only reason Corrin and I met is
because we were the same age.▼

Because of that, it was simply decided
that we would be playmates.▼

I didn't get along well with strangers,
though.▼

I spent our first afternoon together staring
into space, not saying a word...▼

And all the while, Corrin talked up
a storm, eager to make a friend.▼

Ryoma:
They
 must have been relieved not to be so
isolated anymore.▼

Silas:
Looking back, I agree.▼

They
 was so eager to talk that eventually,
little by little, I opened up to them
.▼

And before I knew it, we were best friends.▼

Ryoma:
So I see.▼

Silas:
Even today, they
's a close friend. Despite
all that's happened in the years since...▼

I will keep Corrin safe during this
war. You can count on it.▼

Ryoma:
I will.▼

And of course, I will stop at nothing to
protect Corrin and their
 allies.▼

What we have now, Hoshidans and
Nohrians fighting side by side...▼

It's thanks to them
.▼

Silas:
I agree.▼

Ryoma:
I'm glad we had this talk. It's reassuring
to know they
 has such steadfast friends.▼

Silas:
Is that all that was on your mind,
Prince Ryoma?▼

Ryoma:
Our ends may be the same, but we might
come at it by very different routes.▼

However...Corrin is undeniably the
cord binding us all together.▼

Silas:
I couldn't agree more.▼

Ryoma:
Though mind you, they
 can't be the
sole foundation of this union.▼

This war must be won. I'll be relying on
you to help me do that.▼

Silas:
I'll do all I can.▼



A Support:

Silas:
Prince Ryoma...▼

Ryoma:
What is it, Silas?▼

I believe I've seen your face in here more
than usual these last few days...▼

Silas:
It's because of your knack for providing
excellent counsel, Prince.▼

But I'm here today about something else
entirely.▼

Ryoma:
Let's have it, then.▼

Silas:
It's a serious favor I've come to ask.▼

Would you...swear the Warrior's Oath
with me?▼

Ryoma:
The Warrior's Oath? I'm not familiar
with that.▼

Silas:
It's a ritual in Nohr. We draw each other's
weapons and make a shallow cut.▼

Then we hold the wounds together as we
recite an oath of loyalty.▼

I know that I've already given my word to
fight for you, but...▼

I'd like to formalize it with something more
meaningful to me.▼

Ryoma:
Hmm...▼

Silas:
I deeply respect the code you live by,
Prince Ryoma.▼

It occurred to me that if I swore an oath to
such a man...it would give me strength.▼

Ryoma:
I'm honored, Silas. I accept your request.▼

Silas:
Really?!▼

Ryoma:
Yes. I, too, have been moved many times
by your performance on the battlefield.▼

I respect what a diligent effort you've put
in on our behalf.▼

Silas:
A compliment from Prince Ryoma? I've
gotten more than I came for...▼

Ryoma:
It's the simple truth. That's why I'm willing
to swear this oath of yours.▼

Silas:
Th-thank you!▼

Silas:
And that's it. The Warrior's Oath.▼

Ryoma:
It's an interesting approach to a lasting
ritual of allegiance.▼

Silas:
It really is. When allies trust and respect
each other, they become unstoppable.▼

Ryoma:
Indeed. Once again, I'm honored to count
you as a friend, Silas.▼

Silas:
The honor's all mine, Prince. I look forward
to continuing to fight alongside you.▼

Ryoma:
As do I.▼
