- ## Escanor x Lunete
- ## C Normal
- \f[1|Escanor]\m[1|2]\w[8]
- \s[2]
- Ahh... Another wonderful day in Prydain...\n
- Or so one could say. I could go for\n
- a bite to eat though... Anything, really.|
- \s[-2]
- \s[2]
- Hmm? Is that Lunete? What is she doing\n
- with that knife...? No... No she--\m[2|2]\n
- No! Lunete, stop! Stop!|
- \s[-2]
- \m[2|3]\w[8]\f[3|nil]
- \w[30]
- \r[5]\f[5|Lunete]
- \s[5]
- ... ... ...|\r[5]\n
- Hmm? What is that--|
- \s[-2]
- \f[1|Escanor]\m[1|3]\w[8]
- \s[3]
- S-stop! Don't do it, Lunete!\n
- You have so much to live for!|
- \s[5]
- ...? Do not do what?|
- \s[3]
- Er... E-end it all?|
- \s[5]\b[5|1]
- What are you talking about?|
- \s[3]
- The knife in your hand... you have\n
- it so close to your neck... I thought--|
- \s[5]\b[5|2]
- ... ... ...|
- \s[-2]
- \w[16]
- \s[5]\b[5|0]
- Escanor, I am cutting my hair.\n
- You think I would off myself in\n
- the middle of a battlefield?|
- \s[-2]
- \m[3|2]\w[4]
- \s[2]
- ... Maybe I was being a bit unreasonable.|
- \s[5]
- Maybe? Talk about an overreaction.|
- \s[2]\m[2|2]
- Anyway! Why are you bothering with that?\n
- You've told me countless times you like\n
- the wind blowing through your hair.|\n
- Why would you then cut it short again?|
- \s[5]
- ... Force of habit. From my childhood in\n
- the nunnery. They kept our hair short so\n
- it would keep out of the way of things.|
- \s[2]
- ... Lunete, you were a child. You can\n
- do whatever you want with your hair now.|
- \s[5]
- I know, I know... But when it gets to my\n
- shoulders, I can feel like Sister Brunor\n
- is moments away from pulling me aside.|
- \s[2]
- Sigh... Well, at least let me cut it;\n
- your lengths are all over the place!.|
- \s[5]\e[5|1]
- And what would you know about cutting hair?|
- \s[2]\e[2|1]
- I have four sisters, remember? I know\n
- far more than what most would when\n
- it comes to general grooming skills.|
- \s[5]
- And yet you lack table manners...|
- \s[2]
- ... W-well...|
- \s[-2]
- ## B
- # Battle
- \r[5]\f[5|Lunete]\w[16]
- \f[1|Escanor]\m[1|2]\w[4]
- \s[2]
- Well, well, well,\m[5|5]\r[5] what have we here?|
- \s[5]
- Escanor! You... Do not\n
- sneak up on me like that!|
- \s[2]
- Isn't it a bit early to start drinking,\n
- Lunete? We're still in the thick of it.|
- \s[5]
- ... You are right. Ugh. I told myself I\n
- would only have a little bit to take the\n
- edge off. But that is still too much...|
- \s[2]
- Well, at least you're not drunk.|
- \s[5]
- Please. I would never. ... Around these people.|
- \s[2]\e[2|1]
- Just me, huh?|
- \s[5]
- ... I suppose we have become somewhat\n
- of a drinking duo, have we not?|
- \s[2]
- Problem is you have no tolerance.\n
- And you don't know when to stop.\n
- And you--|
- \s[5]\m[5|5]\e[5|2]
- I know! I am a filthy alcoholic with\n
- the propensity for passing out.|\n
- The only thing worse is a violent drunk.|
- \s[2]\e[2|0]
- Hey now, it's not that serious. I was just\n
- teasing, but I'll stop if I'm upsetting you.|
- \s[5]
- ... ... ...|
- \s[-2]
- \s[5]\e[5|0]
- ... Next time we go to the tavern, cut\n
- me off when you find it appropriate.|
- \s[2]
- All right, I can do that.|
- \s[5]
- And in return, I'll tell you when\n
- you have eaten enough food.|
- \s[2]\m[2|2]
- H-hold on, when were my eating habits\n
- put on the chopping block!? I'm fine!|
- \s[5]
- I have seen you eat so much you could\n
- barely move. I had to push you out on\n
- a cart. It was... very disgusting.|
- \s[2]
- That's happened maybe three times!|
- \s[5]\b[5|1]
- ... ... ...|
- \s[-2]
- \w[32]
- \s[2]
- All right, I guess MAYBE I overeat.\n
- Occasionally. Every once in a while.|
- \s[5]\b[5|0]
- If you were not born into nobility,\n
- you would have changed your habits\n
- years ago. Do you even look at your bill?|
- \s[2]
- ... Not really, no.|
- \s[5]
- Then we can both work on something.\n
- I will watch my drinking, you will\n
- watch your appetite. How is that?|
- \s[2]
- ... Fine.|
- \s[-2]
- ## B
- # Base
- \f[2|Escanor]\e[2|1]
- \s[2]
- Oh yes! I'm so glad I found those kids\n
- back in town. I can get food brought\n
- straight to me for a small fee?|\n
- What an incredible idea! What will\n
- the elites think of next, hahaha!|
- \s[-2]
- \w[32]
- \f[6|Lunete]\m[6|5]\w[4]
- \s[5]
- Escanor, I wanted to--\n
- Oh... Lord Dyfed above...\n
- How long did it take you\n
- to lug this much food here?|
- \s[2]
- Eh? None at all! I waited\n
- for it to all come to me!|
- \s[5]
- What do you mean? Like it was\n
- delivered to you from the tavern?|
- \s[2]
- Precisely! Genius idea, right?|\n
- I just paid a few kids in town\n
- and they brought over the food\n
- as soon as it was ready to eat!|
- \s[5]
- ... How much money did you spend?|
- \s[2]
- Money, shmoney! What purpose is there\n
- in hording money when it can be spent\n
- on things like food and spirits?|
- \s[5]
- You are not going to convince me\n
- paying children to ferry you food\n
- is a good use of your gold, Escanor.|\n
- Sooner or later these poor financial\n
- decisions will bring you to ruin.|
- \s[2]\e[2|0]
- ... Okay, but what if I share\n
- the wine with you? What then?|
- \s[5]
- ... Do not try and tempt me.|\n
- Quitting drinking is on my\n
- goals for this year, you know.|
- \s[2]
- Sounds a bit extreme to me,\n
- but I'll help you if I can.|
- \s[5]\e[5|0]
- ... Next time we go to the tavern, cut\n
- me off when you find it appropriate.|
- \s[2]
- All right, I can do that.|
- \s[5]
- And in return, I'll tell you when\n
- you have eaten enough food.|
- \s[2]\m[2|2]
- H-hold on, I didn't agree to this!|
- \s[5]\e[5|1]
- It can be a learning experience for us both.|
- \s[-2]
- \f[5|nil]
- \s[2]
- Wait, stop! W-where are you\n
- taking all of my food!?|
- \s[-2]
- \f[5|Lunete]
- \s[5]
- You have enough to feed the entire\n
- army. So I am sharing with everyone.|
- \s[2]
- ... This is not fair.|
- \s[-2]
- ## A
- \f[2|Lunete]\f[5|Escanor]
- \s[5]
- Hrmp.|
- \s[2]
- Someone appears to be grouchy.\n
- What is the matter, Escanor?|
- \s[5]
- ... I'm hungry.|
- \s[2]\e[2|1]
- Hah! Still upset that I decided\n
- to curb your appetite I see.|
- \s[5]
- Just a little. But it's fine.\n
- I'll get over it eventually.|
- \s[2]
- I should hope so.|
- \s[-2]
- \w[16]
- \s[5]
- ... Hey, Lunete, what do you plan on\n
- doing once the war is over? Just go\n
- back to Fafnir and remain a knight?|
- \s[2]\e[2|0]
- That was my plan. Why do you ask? Are\n
- you planning on an early retirement?|
- \s[5]
- I think I am, yeah. I mean, this is fun\n
- and all, fighting alongside my friends\n
- like you, but I have other duties too.|
- \s[2]
- Right, being the son of a noble, the\n
- only one at that. You will be inheriting\n
- the land your father governs, right?|
- \s[5]
- Yeah. I mean, I've seen my father do it,\n
- and no one in our area of Fafnir complains\n
- about the leadership but... I don't know.|
- \s[2]
- Don't know what?|
- \s[5]
- If they'll accept me, and if I'm ready\n
- for the responsibility. I mean, I can't\n
- even remember the name of my fiance!|
- \s[2]
- Fiance? Oh, right, you told me about this\n
- before; when you were younger you and her\n
- were placed in an arranged marriage.|\n
- When exactly are you supposed to marry?|
- \s[5]
- When I turn 25. So... Very soon.\n
- I know her name starts with a B...\n
- But I have no idea anything else.|
- \s[2]
- Wait, you have not seen her since the\n
- engagement over twenty years ago?|
- \s[5]
- Nope. I mean, I think I was supposed to\n
- stay in contact with the family, but I\n
- probably forgot all about the affair.|\n
- I mean, I was five years old, can you\n
- really expect someone that young to keep\n
- track of things twenty years in the future?|
- \s[2]
- No... But there are certainly records.\n
- Just go and ask your parents. They can\n
- give you all the information you need.|
- \s[5]
- ... Good point. But I want to do this all\n
- on my own, you know? To prove that I can.|
- \s[2]\e[2|1]
- You certainly are not doing yourself any favors.|
- \s[5]
- Ah, come on! Help me out, it'll be our secret.|
- \s[2]
- One of many secrets we share, I suppose.\e[2|0]\n
- You said B, right? Do you remember the house?|
- \s[5]
- No... But I remember they're from Hreidmar,\b[5|2] and\n
- their crest is... \b[5|0]a winged lion. Green flag.|
- \s[2]
- Noblewoman, B, Hreidmar, winged lion, green family\n
- color. B... Bronwyn? That sounds like a fancy name.|
- \s[5]
- Hmm... That sounds close, but I don't\n
- think that was it. Br... Brystol?|
- \s[2]\m[2|2]
- Wait, hold on... I recall House Chlothar\n
- having twin children around your age...\n
- I think one of them was named... Brunhild?|
- \s[5]
- Oh! That... could be it. Yes, once this war\n
- is over, I'll try and get in contact with\n
- House Chlothar, without my father's help.|\e[5|1]\n
- You really are a lifesaver, Lunete.|
- \s[2]\e[2|1]
- All I ask in return is to attend the wedding.|
- \s[5]
- Attend? You're going to be my best man!|
- \s[2]\e[2|0]
- Er... Are you allowed to do that?|
- \s[5]
- It'll be my wedding. If I want my best\n
- man to be a woman, that's what's going to\n
- happen. I won't take no for an answer!|
- \s[2]\e[2|1]
- All right, well I accept. Now,\n
- take care to survive until then.|
- \s[5]
- Hah! As if you had to ask.|
- \s[-2]
