- Annette: ♪Today's dinner is steak and then a cake that's yummy yum... Now it's time to fill my tummy tummy tum...♪
- Annette: ♪Oh, this mountain of sweets, and treats that I long to eats... Oh, stacks of steaks and cakes and crumbs and yums...♪
- Annette: ♪Goootta eat... ♪ Wha—! Ahem.
- Felix: I hope I'm not interrupting.
- Annette: Felix! You weren't listening, were you?
- Felix: I heard enough to know that you're hungry.
- Annette: No! I mean... Well, yes. At least tell me you didn't see the dance?
- Felix: You have nice footwork.
- Felix: Get something to eat. I can take over watering the plants.
- Annette: ...
- Felix: ...
- Annette: YOU'RE EVIL, FELIX!
- Felix: And you're shouting.
- Annette: You can't just spy on people while they're singing without even saying anything! It's not right!
- Felix: I actually did call out that I was coming in. It's not my fault you didn't hear.
- Annette: Well... You need to speak louder, then! Ugh, this is so embarrassing...
- Annette: And of course I was singing some silly food song I made up. I should have been singing about...bears! Or swamp beasties!
- Felix: I didn't realize there were songs about bears and swamp beasties.
- Felix: That food song seemed to be close to your heart. Your stomach isn't far from your heart, after all.
- Annette: Oh, you are the worst!
- Felix: Huh. What was that about?
- Felix: I better water these plants. Wouldn't want them to get thirsty, or they might start singing too.

- Annette: Hello, Felix. So, uh, it was your turn to clean out the greenhouse, right?
- Felix: Yes.
- Annette: Well, I went ahead and took care of it. I also cleaned up the warehouse.
- Felix: Why?
- Annette: I just wanted to...help you out...so that... OK, fine! I'm bribing you. So you'll forget!
- Felix: Forget what?
- Annette: Are you really going to make me say it?
- Annette: Before! In the greenhouse. I want you to forget what you saw and heard.
- Annette: If you agree to forget about it, I'll take your shift in the stables. Do we have a deal?
- Felix: No, thanks.
- Annette: No?! But that's not OK! You have to forget about it! Right this moment!
- Felix: I can't. It's permanently etched in my memory.
- Felix: A mountain of sweets, as well as steaks and cakes. Stacks of them, apparently.
- Felix: I'm also intrigued by those bear and swamp beastie songs you mentioned.
- Felix: Ah, and I've been meaning to ask about the move that went along with "crumbs and yums." Was that fencing footwork?
- Annette: Stop it, Felix! You're a villain!
- Felix: Hm?
- Annette: You think you're so funny? Keeping a straight face while mocking my singing and dancing!
- Annette: Well, you have to forget about it. Please! What if I make you a nice steak dinner?
- Annette: You like steak, don't you, Felix? It will be yummy.
- Felix: This isn't about steak. I just—
- Annette: Fine, be stubborn! Tell the whole world for all I care! I'll just learn to live with the funny looks I'll get from everyone.
- Annette: They'll all say, "There goes that Annette, the girl with the funny ideas about food!"
- Annette: You're just the evilest of villains, Felix! I'll hate you forever and ever!
- Felix: Huh. I was just trying to be nice.
- Felix: "Funny ideas about food." Even the bullies in her head are ridiculous.
- Felix: I really don't understand that girl.

- Annette: ♪Oh, how I just love to clean. Clean the library room! Just takes a flash of light and then it all goes boom!♪
- Annette: ♪A flash and then a big boom!♪
- Felix: If you blow up the library, where will we put the books?
- Annette: ♪A flash and then a big—♪ Bah! What are you doing here, Felix?!
- Felix: I heard singing.
- Annette: You were watching me again, weren't you?!
- Felix: You shouldn't dance up there. You could fall.
- Annette: Oh, today of all days! I knew I should've chosen a different song...
- Felix: A different song? Like what?
- Annette: Any of them! The box song! Or maybe the dungeon song!
- Felix: Now those sound interesting.
- Annette: No, they're just regular songs! Oh, forget it. While you're here, can you help me clean up?
- Annette: I need the books on that shelf up there, but I can't reach them...
- Felix: Oh. Sure, no problem.
- Felix: What? You're not going to sing anymore?
- Annette: No way! It's too embarrassing! And that song isn't even finished, anyway.
- Felix: Ah, that's too bad. I wanted to hear what happened after the library was blown away.
- Annette: Hey... Don't look at me like that! OK, fine. If you insist, I'll sing just a bit more...
- Annette: ♪Oh, how I just love to clean. Clean the library room! Just takes a flash of light and then it all goes boom!♪
- Felix: ...
- Annette: ♪A flash and then a big boom, suddenly the deed is done! My! What a great job I did! Who says cleaning isn't fun?♪
- Felix: Huh. That doesn't really explain what happened with the library. Maybe they'll build a new one?
- Annette: Ugh, this is so embarrassing...

- Annette: Phew! Now the flowers are all taken care of!
- Annette: Huh? Felix... Why are you hiding there?
- Felix: I'm not hiding.
- Annette: No? Then what are you here for? You don't even have a real reason, do you?
- Felix: No, I don't.
- Annette: Then why...
- Felix: Because of you.
- Annette: What?! What's that supposed to mean?
- Felix: I want you to sing for me.
- Felix: I hear your voice when I'm asleep, or in battle... It's like...it's like I'm your captive.
- Annette: My captive! What are you saying? Oh my, I'm suddenly really flustered...
- Felix: I can't help it... Ugh! I don't know what I'm saying. Forget I said anything.
- Annette: Felix! Are you...blushing?
- Felix: I don't know. Shut up. I'm not blushing.
- Annette: Um...
- Felix: Uh...
- Annette: Well! If you feel like that about it... I suppose I could sing for you sometimes. If you'd like that sort of thing.
- Felix: Oh?
- Felix: I'd better go. Bye.
- Annette: Hey, wait! You just got here... Do you want to hear me sing or not?
- Felix: Uh, yes. I do.
- Annette: Well, what song do you want me to sing? Bears, swamp beasties, boxes, or dungeon?
- Felix: I'd like to hear all of them. If you don't mind. Starting with the library song, in full.
- Felix: Sing for me. Please, Annette?
- Annette: Well... OK. Just this once...
- Ending A
- After the war, Felix inherited the title of Duke Fraldarius from his late father, Rodrigue. Some time later, he married Annette, and the pair earned renown together by working hard at restoring their territory to and beyond its former glory. The people adored the pair: Felix for his fierce determination, and Annette for her boundless cheer. Years later, Annette threw herself into songwriting, and with the support and encouragement of her husband, she produced melodies that remained popular for generations. The lyrics became distorted over time, however, and the original meaning of the music was lost.
- Ending B
- After the war, Felix intended to abandon his noble title and make a living with his sword. On the day that he was to depart, however, he was waylaid by Annette, who begged him not to leave her behind. Instead, she proposed that they relocate to the Officers Academy when it reopened, and take up positions as teachers. When the school did reopen, it is said that the new sword instructor was notoriously harsh, but that he eventually learned to enjoy his work. He was seen to smile, on occasion, but only in the presence of the friendly professor of sorcery.
