- Lyn: Robin, are you OK after that fight? Let me take a look.
- Robin: I'm fine, thanks to you. You don't need to worry about me so much. Not all tacticians are helpless in battle. I've been in plenty of fights. I can take care of myself out there.
- Lyn: I'm sorry--you're right. Force of habit, I guess.
- Robin: That's a pretty intense habit. You watched me like a hawk. Not a single enemy got anywhere near me. What makes you so intent on protecting me?
- Lyn: I'm just used to fighting that way. In my home world, I always kept the tactician close and safe. You triggered my natural instinct.
- Robin: So you travel with a tactician in your home world too?
- Lyn: I do, and they're every bit as brilliant as you. Actually, you have a lot in common.
- Robin: I'd like to meet this tactician someday if I can. I'd love to compare theories on war and tactics and devise new strategies.
- Lyn: I'd be glad to introduce you. But I must warn you, they can be a bit...aloof....?I'm not even sure they would carry on a conversation with you.
- Robin: Ahh, the strong-but-silent type. But you're on good terms, right?
- Lyn: Well, sort of... They're always very quiet, even on the battlefield. Not everyone needs to talk to issue orders.
- Robin: I'm sorry... What? How does one order the troops without words?
- Lyn: Good question! I can somehow always tell. It's like there's an invisible arrow.
- Robin: Are we talking about...telepathy? This sounds like a very advanced tactician.
- Lyn: I couldn't tell you. What I do know is that they're still in training.
- Robin: How strange. Though they do sound very important to you.
- Lyn: So you understand why I get this sudden urge to protect you. You may not like it, but protecting you will make me feel better.
- Robin: Something tells me you won't take no for an answer. But I can't just stand around and let others fight for me. I want to be just as good as your telepathic tactician.
- Lyn: I'm sure you can get there! But no matter how good you get, you'll still let me protect you, right?
- Robin: Of course, Lyn. If it'll make you feel better, I'll rely on you from now on.
- Lyn: Just leave it to me, Robin!
