Leo & Nina parent/child

C-support
Nina: [smile] Ready, aim…
Leo: [frown] Nina.
Nina: [surprised] Ack! Oh, it’s just you, Father. Morning!
Leo: We need to talk about your flights of fancy.
Nina: [blush, worried] Talk? I’d… I’d really rather not…
Leo: Must I tell you this is completely unacceptable for a princess of Nohr? I’d thought it went unsaid.
Nina: [injured] Is it really such a big deal?
Nina: [upset] I-it’s just a bit of fantasy...
Leo: If you’re going to insist on doing something like this, you need to do it properly.
Leo: You need good intel, clear goals, and an ironclad plan.
Leo: [smirk] Fortunately, you have me to help.
Nina: [sweat] …wait, what?
Leo: I happen to know a fair bit about these matters, as you’d imagine.
Nina: [surprised, blush] I-
Leo: And since I doubt I can persuade you to give up this folly, perhaps I can at least guide you.
Leo: [smirk, closed eyes] Niles taught me a great deal, after all.
Nina: [surprise, blush] Argh! Father! I don’t need to know what you and him-
Nina: [sweat] -wait. You’re talking about thievery, aren’t you?
Leo: [frown, sweat] Do you have another untoward hobby I should know about?
Nina: [eyes closed, sweat, smile] Nope! Absolutely not!
Nina: [surprised] Wait – you want to help me?!
Leo: Don’t misunderstand – I expect you to work within strict parameters.
Leo: [smirk] But there’s no reason you can’t use your talents for good.
Nina: [smile] What do you have in mind?
Leo: Patience, Nina. First I need to know what you’re capable of.
Leo: Xander gave me a book for my birthday last year. Bring it to me. Then I’ll set you to work.
Nina: What’s the book?
Leo: [smirk] That would be telling. Good luck, Nina.

Nina: [smile] Oh, Father! I have something for you.
Leo: [smirk] Really, now?
Nina: This is it, right?
Nina: [sweat] It better be, the amount of trouble I went through!
Leo: [smile] It is indeed. Excellent work. I have to admit, I thought you’d be a little longer.
Leo: How did you go about it?
Nina: Well, I knew asking Uncle Xander would be a massive trap. There’s no way you’d make it that easy.
Leo: True enough – he gave me a rare collection. How did you know it was this volume particularly?
Nina: [smile] You didn’t say where the book was. So first thing I did was go to your office and work out what books might be missing.
Nina: Then I just thought through everyone you’d trust enough to lend a book to – it’s a pretty short list!
Leo: Mm. I lent that one to Avatar a few days ago. But there were several I lent him/her – how did you know it was this one?
Nina: [smile, sweat] That was plain old intuition. The other books you lent Avatar were all economics and history, but this one’s military strategy – totally dry.
Nina: Then I realised you must’ve mentioned Uncle Xander for a reason, and of all the books, this is definitely the one he’d give you.
Nina: [smile, closed eyes] So I got it right?
Leo: [smile] You did – and all without being discovered. Good work, Nina.
Nina: So, what are we stealing first?
Leo: Not stealing. Investigating.
Leo: Here, take a look at this map. There’s a garrison stationed here, and…

A-support
Nina: [smile, closed eyes] (Another successful investigation! Now, to report back to-)
[Leo and Niles are offscreen]
Leo: -understand that, but she wanted to be involved.
Niles: She’s still a child!
Nina: [frown] What are they arguing about?
Nina: [injured] …Me?
Leo: Would you rather keep her sequestered in a Deeprealm?
Niles: That’s not what I’m saying, but…
Leo: …I understand what you’re saying. You’re not wrong.
Niles: Neither are you. Just… find something simple and legal for her to do. Alright?
Leo: Of course. I wasn’t planning for her to rob Castle Shirasagi, you know.
Niles: I know. Sorry.
Nina: [surprised] (Crap, here they come.)
[Nina disappears, Niles and Leo onscreen]
Niles: I’ll report back later. Good luck, love.
Leo: [smile, closed eyes] And to you.
[Niles leaves]
Nina: [frown] Father?
Leo: [surprised] Nina?
Nina: [angry] I overheard. Don’t let that man undermine-
Leo: [frown] ‘That man’ is your father, Nina. I’ll thank you to have more respect.
Nina: But-
Leo: But nothing. If you overheard, then you’d know Niles was concerned for your safety.
Nina: No, he was concerned I couldn’t do the job!
Nina: He’s just being hypocritical and sanctimonious like al-
Leo: [angry] Nina!
Nina: [surprised] F-Father?
Leo: This enmity you hold against Niles needs to end, NOW.
Leo: It’s beneath you, and frankly, it’s insulting.
Nina: [upset] B-but-
Leo: Neither of us have been perfect parents, I know that.
Leo: But you have no idea what it’s like to grow up without anyone to care for you.
Leo: [injured] I was fortunate. I had Camilla and Xander to rely on. Niles had no-one.
Nina: [surprised] Then why is he trying to stop me from helping?
Leo: He wants you to be safe because he loves you, not because he doubts your ability. He was the one who was determined you’d join us in the first place.
Leo: If it were up to me, you’d have been back in your Deeprealm before the day was done.
Nina: [sad] I…
Nina: [eyes closed, sad] I understand. I’ll try and do better.
Leo: See that you do.
Leo: [smirk] Now, did you want another assignment or not?
Nina: I- of course! I was worried you were going to just distract me with busywork!
Leo: In an ideal world, but there’s too much actual work to be done.
Leo: This isn’t physically very dangerous, but it’s still of vital importance and requires a sharp mind.
Leo: There’s a prominent backer of that snake Iago who lives not far from here, a nobleman. You’re to concoct some pretext to visit, and then…
