  1. ## Merlina x Sebile
  2. ## C Base
  3. \f[1|Merlina]\m[1|2]\w[4]
  4. \s[2]
  5. Mom! \r[2]Mom, where you?|
  6. \s[-2]
  7.  
  8. \w[32]
  9.  
  10. \f[7|Sebile]\m[7|6]\w[8]
  11. \s[6]
  12. Sugarpup? You were calling me?|
  13. \s[-2]
  14.  
  15. \r[2]\m[2|2]
  16. \s[2]
  17. Oh! There you are.|
  18.  
  19. \s[6]
  20. What do you need, kiddo?|
  21.  
  22. \s[2]
  23. I... I want you to train me.|
  24.  
  25. \s[6]
  26. Eh? Didn't we already have this conversation?|
  27.  
  28. \s[2]
  29. Sort of. You said there's no reason for\n
  30. us both to specialize in the same thing.|\m[2|2]\e[2|1]\n
  31. However! I'm not here to inherit Cumae.\n
  32. I want to learn better swordplay.|
  33.  
  34. \s[6]
  35. Interesting... So you want to be a\n
  36. proper battlemage I take it, then?|
  37.  
  38. \s[2]
  39. That's right. With access to my magic, my\n
  40. staves, AND swords, I'm a triple threat.|
  41.  
  42. \s[6]\e[6|1]
  43. No more interest in my axe skills,\n
  44. huh? I'm a little hurt, Merlina.|
  45.  
  46. \s[2]\e[2|0]
  47. Huh? But you said--|
  48.  
  49. \s[6]
  50. I'm just messing with you, Sugarpup.\n
  51. Although, I would have taught you\n
  52. axes if you really wanted as well.|
  53.  
  54. \s[2]
  55. Hmm... I don't get you, Mom.|
  56.  
  57. \s[6]
  58. Perhaps you never will, kiddo.\n
  59. Now, let's get started with the basics.|
  60. \s[-2]
  61.  
  62. ## C Battle
  63. \f[1|Merlina]\m[1|2]\w[4]
  64. \s[2]

  73. \s[-2]
  74.  
  75. \r[2]\m[2|2]
  76. \s[2]
  77. Hey! Not in public!|
  78.  
  79. \s[6]
  80. Right, sorry, sorry. What\n
  81. do you need, kiddo?|
  82.  
  83. \s[2]
  84. I want you to train me.|
  85.  
  86. \s[6]
  87. Eh? Didn't we already have this conversation?|
  88.  
  89. \s[2]
  90. Sort of. You said there's no reason for\n
  91. us both to specialize in the same thing.|\m[2|2]\e[2|1]\n
  92. However! I'm not here to inherit Cumae.\n
  93. I want to learn better swordplay.|
  94.  
  95. \s[6]
  96. Interesting... So you want to be a\n
  97. proper battlemage I take it, then?|
  98.  
  99. \s[2]
  100. That's right. With access to my magic, my\n
  101. staves, AND swords, I'm a triple threat.|
  102.  
  103. \s[6]\e[6|1]
  104. No more interest in my axe skills,\n
  105. huh? I'm a little hurt, Merlina.|
  106.  
  107. \s[2]\e[2|0]

  110. \s[6]
  111. I'm just messing with you, kiddo.\n
  112. Although, I would have taught you\n
  113. axes if you really wanted as well.|
  114.  
  115. \s[2]
  116. Hmm... I don't get you, Mom.|
  117.  
  118. \s[6]
  119. And you never will. It's my job to confuse you.\n
  120. Now, let's get started with the basics.|
  121. \s[-2]
  122.  
  123.  
  124. ## B Base
  125. \f[4|Merlina]\f[6|Sebile]
  126. \s[6]
  127. Good, good. But, widen your stance a bit.|
  128.  
  129. \s[4]
  130. I thought you said shoulder length?|
  131.  
  132. \s[6]
  133. I said about shoulder length. You're still\n
  134. too closed off; it's limiting your stability.|
  135.  
  136. \s[4]
  137. I feel pretty solid like this, what do you--|
  138. \s[-2]
  139.  
  140. \m[4|4]\m[4|3]\s[3]
  141. Whoa!|
  142. \s[-2]
  143.  
  144. \f[3|nil]
  145. \sound[Collapse]
  146.  
  147. \e[6|1]
  148. \s[6]
  149. Sure about that?|
  150.  
  151. \e[2|3]\f[2|Merlina]\m[2|3]\w[4]
  152. \s[3]
  153. Rude. I wasn't ready!|
  154.  
  155. \s[6]
  156. You're not always going to be ready,\n
  157. that's kind of the point, Merlina.|
  158.  
  159. \s[3]
  160. Hmm... Is this how Grampa taught you?|
  161. \s[-2]
  162.  
  163. \m[6|5]\w[4]
  164. \s[5]
  165. Now, who told you that old fool taught me\n
  166. anything other than how to be annoying?|
  167.  
  168. \s[3]
  169. I guess I just assumed... I mean, you\n
  170. said you hung out with him a lot...|\n
  171. And Gammy doesn't seem the type to be\n
  172. interested in fighting or training.|
  173.  
  174. \s[5]\e[5|0]
  175. Boy, you'd be right about that... Everytime\n
  176. we visit her, she gives me an earful about\n
  177. fighting on the battlefield with my soldiers.|\b[5|2]\n
  178. Hell, she'd probably have a conniption if she\n
  179. knew you were out here fighting, too.|\b[5|0]\n
  180. But, to clear the air about my old man... No, he\n
  181. didn't teach me how to fight. He couldn't himself.|
  182.  
  183. \s[3]
  184. Oh. Then who did?|
  185.  
  186. \s[5]\e[5|1]
  187. Are you sure you want to know? It's\n
  188. one of your least favorite topics.|
  189.  
  190. \s[3]
  191. Uhh... Love?|
  192.  
  193. \s[5]
  194. Bingo! It was my first love who did.|
  195.  
  196. \s[3]
  197. Ugh. Nevermind, I'm not interested.|
  198.  
  199. \s[5]
  200. Oh, come now, Merlina aren't you at least a\n
  201. little bit curious about your mother's youth?|
  202.  
  203. \s[3]
  204. Not if it involves you kissing boys under\n
  205. cherry trees or whatever nonsense you did.|
  206.  
  207. \s[5]
  208. Who said it was just boys?|
  209.  
  210. \s[3]
  211. Moooooooom...|
  212.  
  213. \s[5]
  214. Hahahahaha! Fine, fine. Another time.|
  215. \s[-2]
  216.  
  217. ## B Battle
  218. \f[4|Merlina]\f[6|Sebile]
  219. \s[6]
  220. The last fight was pretty good, but\n
  221. your stance is all over the place.|
  222.  
  223. \r[4]\s[4]
  224. I thought you said shoulder length?|
  225.  
  226. \s[6]
  227. I said about shoulder length. You're still\n
  228. too closed off; it's limiting your stability.|\n
  229. That's why you almost fell over earlier.|
  230.  
  231. \s[4]
  232. I feel pretty solid like this, what do you--|
  233. \s[-2]
  234.  
  235. \m[4|4]\m[4|3]\s[3]
  236. Whoa!|
  237. \s[-2]
  238.  
  239. \f[3|nil]
  240. \sound[Collapse]
  241.  
  242. \e[6|1]
  243. \s[6]
  244. Sure about that?|
  245.  
  246. \e[2|3]\f[2|Merlina]\m[2|3]\w[4]
  247. \s[3]
  248. Mom! I wasn't ready!|
  249.  
  250. \s[6]
  251. You're not always going to be ready,\n
  252. that's kind of the point, Merlina.|
  253.  
  254. \s[3]
  255. Hmm... Is this how Grampa taught you?|
  256. \s[-2]
  257.  
  258. \m[6|5]\w[4]
  259. \s[5]
  260. Now, who told you that old fool taught me\n
  261. anything other than how to be annoying?|
  262.  
  263. \s[3]
  264. I guess I just assumed... I mean, you\n
  265. said you hung out with him a lot...|\n
  266. And Gammy doesn't seem the type to be\n
  267. interested in fighting or training.|
  268.  
  269. \s[5]\e[5|0]
  270. Boy, you'd be right about that... Everytime\n
  271. we visit her, she gives me an earful about\n
  272. fighting on the battlefield with my soldiers.|\b[5|2]\n

  292. Ugh. Nevermind, I'm not interested.|
  293.  
  294. \s[5]
  295. Oh, come now, Merlina aren't you at least a\n
  296. little bit curious about your mother's youth?|
  297.  
  298. \s[3]
  299. Not if it involves you kissing boys under\n
  300. cherry trees or whatever nonsense you did.|
  301.  
  302. \s[5]
  303. Who said it was just boys?|
  304.  
  305. \s[3]
  306. Moooooooom...|
  307.  
  308. \s[5]
  309. Hahahahaha! Fine, fine. Another time.|
  310. \s[-2]
  311.  
  312. ## Base Convo Special
  313. \g[BG]
  314. \f[1|Merlina]\m[1|2]\w[4]
  315. \s[2]
  316. Sigh... Mom? Are you in here?|
  317. \s[-2]
  318.  
  319. \f[5|Sebile]
  320. \s[5]
  321. Hmm? What is it, Sugarpup? Why so tense?|
  322.  
  323. \s[2]
  324. I... I felt bad about our last conversation.\n
  325. I kind of made it seem like I didn't care\n
  326. about your life... That was rude of me.|
  327.  
  328. \s[5]\e[5|1]
  329. Hahahaha! Merlina, it's not a big deal.\n
  330. I imagine every parent realizes that their\n
  331. kid thinks they're boring and embarrassing.|\n
  332. Sure, I think I'm interesting, but I bet my\n
  333. parents did as well, and you've met them.|
  334.  
  335. \s[2]\e[2|1]
  336. Heh... Gammy and Grampa aren't all bad.|
  337.  
  338. \s[5]
  339. Bad? No. Strange? Absolutely.|
  340.  
  341. \s[2]
  342. Well, regardless! I'm here to hear\n
  343. the vast adventures of your youth!|
  344.  
  345. \s[5]\e[5|0]
  346. Eh? I don't think we have that much time...|
  347.  
  348. \s[2]
  349. Well, at least tell me about the\n
  350. person who taught you how to fight.|
  351.  
  352. \s[5]\e[5|1]
  353. Ah... Iblis.|
  354.  
  355. \s[2]
  356. You've mentioned her before to me,\n
  357. but not in detail. Who was she?|
  358.  
  359. \s[5]\e[5|0]
  360. One of my father's commanders. She\n
  361. was only a few years older than me.\n
  362. I was fascinated by her, truthfully.|
  363.  
  364. \s[2]
  365. Why? Was she exceptionally pretty or something?|
  366.  
  367. \s[5]\e[5|1]
  368. Hah! I don't think she'd appreciate\n
  369. being called that. But yes, I found\n
  370. her battle prowess beautiful.|\n
  371. I'd watch the soldiers training from\n
  372. the courtyard with my father often, and\n
  373. the two us would try and mimic them.|\n
  374. A couple of idiots the two of us were; the\n
  375. goofy marquess and his uncoordinated kid.|\n
  376. Man, the embarrassment we put upon my mother...|
  377.  
  378. \s[2]
  379. So... Grampa is the reason you're so embarrassing...|
  380.  
  381. \s[5]
  382. You couldn't tell?|
  383. \s[-2]
  384.  
  385. \s[5]\e[5|0]
  386. Anyway, one of the days we were doing our\n
  387. stupid routine, Iblis comes up to us with\n
  388. some practice weapons, inviting us to join.|\n
  389. Naturally, we weren't about to back down,\n
  390. so we did. We were... awful. But, Iblis didn't\n
  391. ignore us, she tried to train both of us.|\n
  392. My father? Lost cause. You've met him. And\n
  393. me? Well, with her guidance, I gradually\n
  394. picked it up. I became formidable.|
  395.  
  396. \s[2]
  397. Hmm... I'm still waiting for this love story--|
  398.  
  399. \s[5]\e[5|1]\m[5|5]
  400. So you ARE interested in love!|
  401.  
  402. \s[2]
  403. No one said that--|
  404.  
  405. \s[5]
  406. Well, I won't disappoint. Despite my training,\n
  407. I wasn't anywhere near Iblis in terms of skill.\n
  408. So, I'd spend days just... watching her.|\n
  409. How she moved, what she kept an eye on,\n
  410. the way she swung her axe... Eventually, I\n
  411. started looking at... well, her lips for one--|
  412.  
  413. \s[2]
  414. ENOUGH! I GET THE PICTURE!|
  415.  
  416. \s[5]
  417. Prude. Anyway, one day I decided to\n
  418. confess my feelings, and she kissed me.|
  419.  
  420. \s[2]
  421. Do NOT describe it, please.|
  422.  
  423. \s[5]
  424. Hahahaha! I didn't plan on it.|\e[5|0]\n
  425. Anyway, after she did, she says\n
  426. to me: "How was that? Good enough?\n
  427. Hopefully, that'll hold you over."|
  428.  
  429. \s[2]
  430. ... What?|
  431.  
  432. \s[5]
  433. I had the exact same reaction. I\n
  434. thought she kissed me out of pity.|\n
  435. I was so angry with her, with myself;\n
  436. I felt like an idiot. But, I kept\n
  437. going to those training sessions.|\n
  438. I had to improve, I kept telling myself.\n
  439. Only when I can best her, she'll see me\n
  440. as her equal. I did everything I could.|
  441.  
  442. \s[2]
  443. Did you ever end up beating her?|
  444.  
  445. \s[5]
  446. Nope. Every time, I'd challenge her, she'd\n
  447. whoop my ass, and give me another pity kiss.\n
  448. An infuriating woman, that Iblis.|
  449.  
  450. \s[2]\e[2|1]
  451. She sounds funny. How come you've\n
  452. never talked to me about her before?|
  453.  
  454. \s[5]
  455. Probably out of pride. She made me feel so\n
  456. stupid, and yet so happy at the same time.\n
  457. Stupid teenage emotions, I suppose.|\n
  458. Eventually, I realized I had to move\n
  459. on. Your father was actually the one\n
  460. who helped me get over her eventually.|
  461.  
  462. \s[2]
  463. Oh, you two fell in love while--|
  464.  
  465. \s[5]\e[5|1]
  466. HAH! No, he would call me a sad, sweet\n
  467. puppy. I ended up developing feelings for\n
  468. after the fact, and he just shook his head.|\e[5|0]\n
  469. A fine man, that Baudoin. I do wonder\n
  470. how he spends his days. Been so long...|
  471.  
  472. \s[2]\e[2|0]
  473. I wish I got to meet him...|
  474.  
  475. \s[5]
  476. You would've liked him. I certainly did.\n
  477. Anyway! That's my story. Hope you liked it.|
  478.  
  479. \s[2]
  480. It was pretty interesting. Whatever\n
  481. happened to Iblis anyway?|
  482.  
  483. \s[5]\e[5|0]
  484. Truthfully, no idea. Around the time I\n
  485. married Baudoin, she ended up leaving.|\n
  486. I wish her well, regardless.|
  487.  
  488. \s[2]
  489. Hmm... Well, that's a shame. Maybe\n
  490. one day, I'll get to meet her.|
  491.  
  492. \s[5]\e[5|1]\m[5|5]
  493. I hope you do, so I can finally\n
  494. settle my score with her and win!|
  495. \s[-2]
  496.  
  497. ## A Base
  498. \f[5|Sebile]\f[2|Merlina]
  499. \s[5]
  500. Looking much better, Merlina.\n
  501. Seems you're a natural at this.|
  502.  
  503. \s[2]\e[2|1]
  504. Heh, well you know, I AM\n
  505. a prodigy after all. You know\n
  506. how fast I picked up staves.|
  507.  
  508. \s[5]
  509. True, my mother only had\n
  510. to show you how to do it once\n
  511. and you figured it out.|
  512.  
  513. \s[2]\e[2|0]
  514. ... Hey, Mom? Can I ask you something?|
  515.  
  516. \s[5]
  517. Why the serious tone? Sure,\n
  518. kiddo; you can ask me anything.|
  519.  
  520. \s[2]
  521. ... Do you think you'll ever remarry?|
  522.  
  523. \s[5]
  524. Hmm... Dad used to ask me that too,\n
  525. back when you were a toddler.|\n
  526. Insisted that you need both of your\n
  527. parents to grow up properly, and since\n
  528. Baudoin passed, I needed a new partner.|
  529.  
  530. \s[2]
  531. And you refused.|
  532.  
  533. \s[5]
  534. It's less refused and more... I just didn't\n
  535. have the time. I was focused on my new\n
  536. position as marquess, as well as my Sugarpup.|\n
  537. And, with my new position, every potential\n
  538. suitor could just want power, and would only\n
  539. love me and you so they could get something.|\n
  540. That's not the kind of environment I'd want\n
  541. you to have to grow up in, Merlina.|
  542.  
  543. \s[2]
  544. But now...? I'm eighteen at this point,\n
  545. I'm a full-fledged adult. You don't have\n
  546. to worry about me anymore.|
  547.  
  548. \s[5]\e[5|1]
  549. Are you sure about that? This is an\n
  550. active war, as far as I know, kiddo.|\n
  551. The last thing I'm going to do is stop\n
  552. worrying about you. You're all I got!|
  553.  
  554. \s[2]
  555. I just want you to be happy, you know?|
  556.  
  557. \s[5]
  558. Merlina, I AM happy. I have a prodigy\n
  559. daughter who's the spitting image of\n
  560. her late father. What's not to like?|\n
  561. You don't need to be married to be happy.|
  562.  
  563. \s[2]
  564. ... ... ...|
  565.  
  566. \s[5]\e[5|0]
  567. I know, you're still a bit\n
  568. uncomfortable with romance.|\n
  569. But, whether or not you ever\n
  570. bother pursuing it, you're\n
  571. going to find happiness.|\n
  572. Training with my father, playing\n
  573. cards with my mother, spending time\n
  574. with you; those things make me happy.|
  575. Hell, back when I was a lovesick\n
  576. teenager chasing after Iblis with your\n
  577. father making fun of me, I was happy.|\n
  578. If romance isn't for you, then it\n
  579. doesn't have to be. Don't let that\n
  580. dictate whether or not you're happy.|
  581.  
  582. \s[2]
  583. ... You turned this around on me...|
  584.  
  585. \s[5]\e[5|1]
  586. Heh, looks like I did. Sorry about\n
  587. that. But, I'm happy as I am now,\n
  588. Merlina. I hope that helps ease a burden.|
  589.  
  590. \s[2]\e[2|1]
  591. It does... I love you, Mom.|
  592.  
  593. \s[5]
  594. Love you more, Sugarpup.|
  595. \s[-2]
