- Sophie: [smile, closed eyes] Okay, okay, the first person who locks eyes with me in full moonlight, this is going to be so cool~!
- Ophelia: [surprised] Sophie? What are you doing out at this auspicious hour?
- Sophie: [eyes open] Heya, Ophelia! I’m waiting for my destiny!
- Ophelia: [confused] Whatever do you mean?
- Sophie: [smile] Well, this fortune-teller in town told me-
- Ophelia: In town? What are her credentials?
- Ophelia: [wink] If you wanted your love life foretold, I could’ve done it just fine.
- Ophelia: In fact, my purest rose quartz is just about recharged, so-
- Sophie: [frown] No, no, nothing boring like love!
- Sophie: My destined RIVAL!
- Ophelia: Huh?
- Sophie: This old fortune-teller lady in town said that the next person I locked eyes with in full moonlight would be my rival forever and ever!
- Ophelia: [smile] How wondrous! Do you trust her third eye’s attunement to the threads of fate?
- Sophie: [smile, sweat] …Yes?
- Sophie: [sweat] I mean, I’ve never had my fortune told before today, so…
- Ophelia: [surprised] Truly? Well, I’ll soon remedy that!
- Ophelia: [determined, smile] I’ll test the claims of this simple village seer and peer into the farthest throes of your destiny, Sophie!
- Ophelia: [wink] Just let me fetch my reagants!
- [Ophelia leaves]
- Sophie: [surprised] Wow, two fortunes in one day!
- Sophie: Wait- the moon is bright in the sky, and we made eye contact, so-
- Sophie: [sweat] H-how am I meant to be rivals with a mage?!
- B-support
- Ophelia: [smile] Sophie, I’m ever so glad you could finally make it to my- what is THAT?!
- Sophie: [smile] Oh, it’s a special kind of lance.
- Ophelia: [sweat] I know what it is! I’ve been menaced by a Hexlock Spear on more than one occasion.
- Ophelia: I mean, why did you bring it here?!
- Sophie: [smile, closed eyes] Well, if the old lady’s fortune was right, then YOU’RE my destined rival!
- Ophelia: [surprised] M-me? But I’m a mage and you’re a cavalrywoman!
- Ophelia: Th-that hardly seems fair!
- Sophie: I know, that’s what I thought!
- Sophie: But then I started looking back through all these legends, and it turns out there’s been heaps of awesome heroic rivalries between paladins and mages throughout legend!
- Ophelia: Oh? Well, I suppose there’s the epic duels between Ike the Radiant Hero and Micaiah the Silver-Haired Maiden.
- Ophelia: Or the noble martyr Sigurd and the wicked Arvis!
- Sophie: [worried] Wait, we’re not destined to kill each other, are we?
- Ophelia: No, no, no!
- Ophelia: We can be friendly rivals! The kind bards sing of!
- Ophelia: Imagine it: Ophelia Dusk, the beautiful sorceress of twilight, and her destined archrival, Knight-Commander Sophie, tamer of the most vicious beasts!
- Sophie: [sweat] Avel might object to- w-wait, Knight-Commander?
- Ophelia: [wink] But of course! With our destined heroism, it’s only natural we’ll both rise to the top of our fields!
- Ophelia: [smile] Our rivalry will be the greatest -and friendliest- in all of Nohrian history!
- Sophie: [smile] I can’t wait!
- Ophelia: Now, where should we have our first big battle?
- A-support
- Sophie: [sweat] Wow, the mess hall walls were a LOT more fragile than I thought…
- Ophelia: [injured] I’ve never seen Mother/Father so mad… and even Father was cross!
- Ophelia: I thought he’d understand the importance of a fated rivalry!
- Sophie: [sweat] Yeah, Daddy definitely did not approve.
- Sophie: [smile] But everyone around camp is talking about our duel!
- Ophelia: [smile] It’s true! The wisps of infamy crowd around us like smoke twixt a watchfire!
- Ophelia: We’ll be the topic of legend in no time!
- Sophie: [worried] But hey, what if the legends get it wrong? What if they think we hated each other like the guy who set the other guy on fire?
- Sophie: (Don’t set me on fire, by the way.)
- Ophelia: [thoughtful] Notoriety has its attendant risks, oh rival. It’s possible future generations will view us as competing enemies joined by circumstances, rather than the friends we truly are.
- Ophelia: [sad] But we already bear those risks. What do you think they’ll say about our fathers, about Avatar?
- Sophie: [surprised] You mean, if we lose the war?
- Ophelia: Or even if we win.
- Ophelia: [eyes closed] Avatar stayed loyal to his/her family in Nohr. Avatar betrayed Nohr for Hoshido. Or maybe… Avatar refused to choose a side, and died from sorrow.
- Ophelia: Who’s really going to be able to say what happened in a thousand years from now?
- Sophie: [surprised] That’s bleak.
- Ophelia: [wink] Only from a certain perspective!
- Ophelia: Do you know who founded Nohr?
- Sophie: [thoughtful] The Dusk Dragon?
- Ophelia: Something like that. There’s tomes upon tomes of legend, but we don’t know at all.
- Sophie: [smile] But Nohr’s still here, and we’re still fighting, so it doesn’t really matter WHAT people say happened.
- Sophie: [injured] Wait- then why do you want to be legendary rivals, if it’s not even true?
- Ophelia: [wink] Because it’s our destiny, of course!
- Sophie: [blush, smile] Heehee… you’re the best rival a girl could ask for.
- S-support
- Ophelia: [determined smile] Take THIS! Cymbeline, burn the evil from her heart!
- [magic SFX]
- [guard SFX]
- Sophie: [smile] No way! You’ll never defeat my Gravi- whoa!
- [splash SFX]
- Sophie: [sweat] Yep. Straight into the mud.
- Ophelia: [smile] Then that round goes to me!
- Sophie: [blush] …Say, Ophelia. There’s something I have to talk to you about.
- Ophelia: [surprised] I thought your aura looked different today.
- Sophie: [blush, worried] Y-yeah, well- I went back to that fortune-teller lady yesterday. I wanted to tell her about our awesome rivalry.
- Sophie: [closed eyes, blush] And she said that she’d only given me half the fortune.
- Sophie: Turns out I ran off all excited before she finished her sentence.
- Ophelia: [smirk] Plausible, yes.
- Sophie: [blush] W-well- you and I are destined rivals, but it’s more than that.
- Sophie: We’re, um-
- Sophie: (Why is this so hard to say?!)
- Sophie: Destiny says we’re meant to be together!
- Sophie: [blush] But- if you’re not okay with it, that’s fine, I just thought I should tell you, and-
- Ophelia: [blush, surprised] Destined rivalry… AND love?
- Ophelia: That’s…
- Ophelia: The rosy light of love, the solemn dark of rivalry…
- Ophelia: Truly, no other destiny could possibly lie before me!
- Ophelia: [smile] In truth, I’d hoped our fates were even closer intertwined since that first grand duel of ours.
- Ophelia: But this exceeds all expectations! From frenemies to rivalovers!
- Sophie: [blush] It would be my honour to be your destined rivalover, Ophelia.
- Ophelia: [blush] No, Sophie- it would be MY honour to be yours!
- Sophie: [blush, smile, closed eyes] …
- Ophelia: [blush, smile, closed eyes] …
- Ophelia: [injured, blush] -Um, as much as I do enjoy being in your warm embrace, dearest Sophie…
- Ophelia: [sweat, blush] You’re covered in mud. Ergo, I am now covered in mud.
- Sophie: [sweat, blush] Whoops. At least you don’t have many clothes to wash?
- Ophelia: [blush] Legends aren’t made through sensible dress, love.
