- Olivia: [blush, injured] Th-this is so embarrassing…
- Olivia: Oh, I can’t trouble them with something like this! I’d better g- ow!
- [Brady appears]
- Brady: Ma? Are you okay?
- Olivia: [smile, sweat] Hello, Brady! I was just out for a walk.
- Brady: …really? ‘Cause you’re just standin’ there.
- Brady: You sure you don’t need a healer?
- Olivia: No! I’m fine!
- Brady: Then can I take a walk with ya?
- Olivia: [sweat] O-of course…
- Brady: [smile, sweat] Y’know, back in my time, you used to get cramps in your ankles a bit.
- Brady: There’s a certain poultice I’ve got a knack for applying. Interested?
- Olivia: [blush] I- I don’t want to trouble you…
- Brady: Hey, it’s no trouble! I’m more than happy to help you out!
- Brady: Now, ready, steady, up!
- Olivia: [eyes closed, yelling] Whoaaa!
- Brady: [smile, sweat] Can’t have you walking on that ankle, Ma.
- B-support
- Brady: Hey, Ma! How’s the old ankle feeling?
- Olivia: [smile] Much better, thanks to you. That poultice worked like a charm.
- Brady: ‘Course it did! You’re the one who taught me the recipe, after all.
- Brady: Makes sense it’s tailor-made for you.
- Olivia: [surprised] Wait- won’t that cause a time paradox?
- Brady: [sweat] Crap. Didn’t think of that.
- Brady: Well, I ain’t been blinked out of existence yet, so I’d say so far so good.
- Olivia: [smile, closed eyes] Heehee! I suppose so.
- Olivia: Now that I’m feeling a bit better, perhaps we should take that walk together?
- Brady: Yeah! There’s so much I wanna ask you!
- Olivia: [surprised] You? Ask me?
- Brady: [smile] Yeah, of course!
- Brady: [sad] I mean, Ma -my Ma, from the future- hasn’t been around for a while, and…
- Brady: There’s a lot of stuff I wish I’d asked or said, so…
- Brady: [sweat] If that’s okay with you.
- Olivia: [smile] Of course.
- [scene transition]
- Brady: [surprised] Whoa, seriously? I never thought Khan Flavia could sit through an opera, let alone…
- Olivia: [smile, closed eyes] Heehee! I was surprised too!
- Olivia: [smile] Well, um, this is my tent.
- Brady: Hey, uh, before we split – can I ask a favour?
- Brady: I, uh… I know you don’t like dancing in front of crowds. But-
- Brady: [frown] Aww, don’t worry about it.
- Olivia: No, tell me!
- Brady: [sad] W-well… There’s this song, see. ‘Serenade of the Ocean’.
- Olivia: [smile] I know it well.
- Brady: You used to sing and dance to it all the time when I was a kid.
- Brady: And I play the violin, see, so I tried to learn the accompaniment.
- Brady: [eyes closed] But by the time I got it together, you’d already…
- Olivia: [sad] Oh.
- Brady: [injured, eyes closed] D-d’you think, uh- that is, would you mind…
- Olivia: [smile] I’d be honoured to perform together.
- Brady: [eyes open, smile] R-really?
- Olivia: [smile] Of course! I can’t wait.
- Brady: [smile] Me neither! This is gonna rock!
- A-support
- Olivia: [smile, eyes closed] Phew!
- Brady: [smile, eyes closed] Hah… that was great!
- Brady: Your dancing’s even more amazing than I remembered, Ma.
- Olivia: And your violin accompaniment was first rate!
- Olivia: I’ve never heard such beautiful music. You could find a chair at any orchestra in the land!
- Brady: [blush] Aww, you’re makin’ me blush.
- Brady: But… I do wanna do something like that someday.
- Olivia: [smile] Really?
- Brady: You know what it’s like. Words are hard, and they come out wrong if you get all flustered.
- Brady: Everyone thinks I’m scary cause’a this ugly mug, but I’m the one who’s scared to speak up.
- Brady: [closed eyes, smile] But with music… you can say it all without even opening your mouth.
- Olivia: [smile] I know exactly what you mean.
- Olivia: The idea of a crowd terrifies me, but when I’m dancing, I can just forget it all.
- Olivia: [eyes closed] Once all this is over, I want to open a theatre. The kind of place where anyone can express themselves.
- Brady: [smile] Heh, I figured as much.
- Olivia: [surprised] Huh? You mean… I really did it?
- Brady: Yeah. There were all sorts a’ shows there, and lots of people learning and teaching, too.
- Brady: [injured] It, uh- it got trashed when Ylisstol fell, but…
- Olivia: [smile] I really did it, huh…
- Olivia: [determined] Well, then that settles it – you HAVE to come perform there when the war ends!
- Brady: [surprised] Me? You sure?
- Olivia: [smile] Absolutely! You can be our resident musician!
- Olivia: [sweat, smile] That is… if you’d like to be.
- Brady: That…
- Brady: [crying, smile] That’d be amazing! Aww, Ma, I can’t wait!
- Olivia: [smile, blush] H-hey, you’re going to make me tear up at this rate…
- Brady: [crying] Sorry, I’m just- I’m so happy!
- Olivia: [crying, blush] M-me too!
