- Hinoka: All right, I've got my vulnerary, spare gauntlets...everything I need.
- Frederick: Princess Hinoka! You should leave this preparation work to me.
- Hinoka: Frederick? You want to pack my travel bag? Go for it.
- Frederick: Thank you, milady. I must say, you did seem to be doing an admirable job. But isn't this the sort of thing you'd usually delegate to a retainer?
- Hinoka: You haven't met Azama and Setsuna. Neither of them are really cut out for this kind of work.
- Frederick: Well, what work DO they handle? Surely your laundry, at the very least?
- Hinoka: It's easier to do my own than it is to constantly save Setsuna from drowning.
- Frederick: Drowning...in the act of doing laundry? Surely you jest.
- Hinoka: I wish. If there's any danger in a task, she will discover it.
- Frederick: But...what of all the cleaning and tidying? Please tell me you're not doing it all!
- Hinoka: Of course I do! I prefer my things to be cleaned rather than broken to bits. And that's a best-case scenario if Setsuna is doing the work. Now, Azama is a bit more careful and does a solid job. But he berates me the whole time. And he's annoyingly accurate!
- Frederick: This is unbelievable. Should I meet this fool, I will teach him some respect.
- Hinoka: Believe me, it's easier to just do everything myself.
- Frederick: I never could have imagined you were in such a dire situation. No wonder you are so adept at these menial tasks. Your hand has been forced.
- Hinoka: The thing is... I wouldn't trade those two for anyone else.
- Frederick: How can you say that?! What possible value can they offer?
- Hinoka: Well, despite their quirks, they're plenty capable on the battlefield. It might seem to be an odd arrangement, but it works for us.
- Frederick: Fascinating. Tell me, do you at least entrust them with landscaping duties?
- Hinoka: Landscaping? What's that?
- Frederick: Pulling weeds, tending the gardens, arranging decorative rocks...
- Hinoka: Decorative rocks?! Frederick, tell me you're not wasting time on such drivel!
- Frederick: I hardly think Chrom's decorative rocks qualify as drivel!
- Hinoka: You would do anything for Chrom, wouldn't you? I mean...it's admirable. I just can't believe the kind of standard you're setting.
- Frederick: Thank you, milady. It does please me to hear my efforts praised. Still, I can't help but feel guilty about your situation. If I meet your retainers in the future, perhaps I could educate them properly.
- Hinoka: You're welcome to try. Knowing you, you might actually succeed! Maybe you could even give me some feedback on my leadership too.
- Frederick: It would be my honor. Thank you, Lady Hinoka.
