- Selkie: [smiling] Are you ready to play yet?
- Siegbert: [frown, sweat] Not yet.
- Selkie: [frown] …
- Selkie: [smiling] What about now?
- Siegbert: No.
- Selkie: [frown] …
- Selkie: [confused] …
- Selkie: [big smile] Now?
- Siegbert: [angry, sweat] I’m going to be at least an hour, Selkie.
- Selkie: [angry] What? But- but look at how bright it is outside!
- Selkie: How can you not want to go play?
- Selkie: [smiling] There’s a great hill nearby where we could play rolling boulders!
- Siegbert: [pain, sweat] I have to finish my studies.
- Siegbert: [angry] Come to think of it, don’t you have study you should be doing?
- Selkie: Too boring.
- Siegbert: Selkie!
- Siegbert: You can’t neglect your studies just because we have other responsibilities here.
- Selkie: [frown, sweat] I’m neglecting them because they’re boring.
- Siegbert: We are royalty, Selkie. We have a duty to be the best we can be.
- Selkie: I’m already the best at the important stuff! Running, climbing, swimming, fighting…
- Siegbert: Those aren’t the only important things! A princess should be well-read, good at sums and strategy, knowledgeable about her kingdom and those around her.
- Selkie: [confused] I’m plenty knowledgeable!
- Siegbert: [pain] What’s the capital of Nohr?
- Selkie: …Gloomy…midnight…land?
- Siegbert: [yelling] Selkie!
- Siegbert: I can’t keep covering for you any more! You need to take responsibility?
- Selkie: [pain] “Covering for me?”
- Siegbert: [angry] Forget I said anything. Just… please, do your studies for once. And leave me in peace to do mine.
- [exit Siegbert]
- Selkie: …We’ve come all this way, and he’s still no fun.
- B-support
- Selkie: [angry] Siegbert!
- Siegbert: [pain] Sis, I’m in the middle of-
- Selkie: You lied to Dad and Papa about me!
- Selkie: You told them I’d done all that stupid work!
- Siegbert: [angry, sweat] I did your studies for you, yes.
- Selkie: [pain] I never asked you to!
- Siegbert: [pain] I didn’t want you to get into trouble-
- Selkie: [angry] No, you didn’t want to disappoint our fathers!
- Siegbert: Our studies aren’t just busywork! We have a responsibility to our families and to our kingdom-
- Selkie: Have you ever even BEEN to Nohr?
- Siegbert: [pain] …Not exactly. But neither have you.
- Selkie: Yeah, that’s my point! No-one there even knows about us.
- Selkie: And when they find out, they’re not going to be like, “Those kitsune don’t know enough about Hoshidan history!”
- Selkie: They’re going to be like, “They’re kitsune! That’s awesome!”
- Selkie: Or maybe, “I bet they can help protect us from all the bad guys!”
- Siegbert: [pain] They’re not going to be happy to see us, Selkie.
- Siegbert: The royal family are feared, not loved. As are kitsune.
- Selkie: [angry, sweat] Well, of course they’re not gonna love you with that attitude!
- Selkie: [smiling] We’ll just make friends with them, one at a time if we have to!
- Selkie: Like the Hoshidans and Nohrians here.
- Siegbert: [pain, sweat] It’s not that simple.
- Selkie: No, you’re just making it too complicated.
- Selkie: [pain] Forget it. Just don’t ‘help’ me again, okay?
- Siegbert: [angry, sweat] You’re in no danger of that.
- A-support
- Selkie: [smile] I told Papa everything about how you were doing my work for me back in our Deeprealm.
- Siegbert: [pain] And?
- Selkie: [big smile] He got pretty mad!
- Siegbert [standard, sweat]: …Why are you so happy about it?
- Selkie: [smiling] Because I get it now! I get why you’re so obsessed with all these boring books!
- Selkie: [angry] You’re worried Dad and Papa won’t love you if you don’t do everything perfectly.
- Siegbert: [pain] That’s…
- Selkie: Totally stupid, yep.
- Selkie: [smiling] Papa was really mad at me. Even Dad was mad. But you know what? They still love me.
- Selkie: And they’ll love you no matter how good or bad you are at studying, or horseriding, or any stupid prince stuff.
- Siegbert: [angry] It’s not-
- Siegbert: [pain] I don’t want to fall short of their expectations.
- Selkie: [confused] You’re such a little kid sometimes.
- Selkie: [smiling] You’re already way past their expectations in almost everything.
- Siegbert: …Almost?
- Selkie: [angry] See, I knew you’d focus on that!
- Selkie: [smiling] You’re terrible at being happy.
- Selkie: Really the worst I’ve ever seen.
- Selkie: Even those invisible soldiers are better at being happy than you.
- Siegbert: [blushing, angry] Being happy isn’t-
- Selkie: It’s something absolutely every parent wants for their child!
- Selkie: More than being smart or strong or pretty or cool, everyone wants their kids to be happy.
- Siegbert: [pain] …
- Selkie: [pain] Everyone knows you work really hard, bro. But sometimes you work TOO hard.
- Selkie: I’m worried about you. And so are our fathers.
- Siegbert: … I’m sorry. It wasn’t my intention to make you sorry.
- Selkie: [smiling] I know. You’re way too worried about other people’s feelings for that.
- Selkie: [big smile] Soooo, what about this?
- Selkie: You and me play for a while, and then later, we can study together for a while!
- Siegbert: [pain, sweat] I…
- Siegbert: [smiling] Alright. If it’ll stop you worrying.
- Selkie: [smiling] We’ll get you having fun in no time!
