- Shura: [sweat] Hey, uh- I’m looking for Sabrina?
- Selena: [frown] Never heard of her.
- Shura: [frown] Maybe it was Sarita… Savina… Serena?
- Shura: Lady Camilla’s retainer.
- Selena: [blush, angry] Seriously?! It’s SELENA!
- Selena: How hard is that to remember? Se-Le-Na!
- Shura: [sweat] …Selena, I’m guessing?
- Selena: Obviously! What do you want?
- Shura: [sweat] It’s a longshot, but is this yours?
- Selena: [surprised] *gasp* Where did you find that?!
- Shura: [smile] So that’s a yes.
- Shura: It was down at the archery range. What is it, a hairpiece or something?
- Selena: [blush] N-never you mind!
- Selena: [unsure] Although… thanks for finding it. I guess.
- Shura: Heh. No problem. Just don’t go wearing it into battle or anything.
- Shura: It already looks pretty battered as it is.
- Selena: [sad] Y-yeah…
- Selena: [frown] Hey, you didn’t damage it or anything, did you?!
- Shura: What? No! It was already falling apart when I found it!
- Shura: You’ll probably need to buy a new one soon.
- Selena: [sad] It’s not really something you can just buy…
- Selena: [frown] W-well, thanks or whatever.
- Selena: Don’t think this means I owe you or anything!
- Shura: [sweat] Never crossed my mind.
- B-support
- [Shura is alone]
- Shura: Hmm… nope. That’s not right.
- Shura: [frown] It felt like kinshi down, but it’s way too long.
- Shura: …maybe one of those Izumite cranes?
- [Selena appears]
- Selena: [sweat] What did all that fletching ever do to you?
- Shura: Nothing. Just solving a mystery.
- Shura: [surprised] Oh, hey, it’s you, Savina.
- Selena: [angry] SELENA.
- Shura: [sweat] Right, sorry.
- Shura: You just- I dunno, you don’t look like a Selena.
- Selena: [angry] And you don’t look like a-
- Selena: [eyes closed, frown] Argh, never mind! What’s this stupid mystery you’re solving or whatever?
- Selena: [wink] I happen to be an ace detective.
- Shura: [smirk] You’ll be able to solve it right now. What kind of feathers is your hairpiece made out of?
- Shura: I figured I’d fix it up for you, since it’s all tattered.
- Shura: But I can’t pick the bird. So what is it?
- Selena: [surprised] It’s…
- Selena: [injured] It’s not from around here.
- Selena: You wouldn’t be able to find anything like it.
- Shura: My blackmarket contacts back in Windmire are pretty resourceful.
- Selena: Not this resourceful.
- Selena: [eyes closed] It’s called a caladrius. You don’t have them here.
- Shura: [surprised] Never heard of it.
- Selena: [frown] See? Told you!
- Shura: So… it’s not just some fashionable noblewoman getup then, huh?
- Selena: [wink] No, although it IS fashionable.
- Selena: [frown, blush] A friend gave it to me a long time ago.
- Shura: Sounds important.
- Selena: [injured] Y-yeah, well, I guess maybe I do owe you a bit after all.
- Selena: Hey, just why were you planning on fixing it, anyway?
- Selena: [smirk] Trying to get in good with Lady Camilla?
- Shura: [frown] It just looked well-loved, that’s all. Don’t want you falling in battle just because your charm’s not working.
- Shura: Although… come to think of it, I don’t think I’ve seen you wearing it on the field.
- Selena: [embarrassed] It’s for archery. ‘Makes arrows fly true’ or whatever.
- Selena: Don’t get me wrong, I don’t believe in all that! But she did, and…
- Shura: [smile] And you miss her?
- Selena: [blush, angry] For someone so helpful, you’re pretty annoying.
- Shura: Heh. I’ll take that as a compliment.
- Selena: It so wasn’t one!
- A-support
- [Shura alone]
- Shura: [upset] D-dammit…
- Shura: Here I thought I was getting too old to fall apart at stuff like this…
- [Selena appears]
- Selena: [surprised] Shura?
- Selena: H-hey! What are you so upset for!?
- Shura: [eyes closed] …Hey, Selena.
- Shura: Sorry, I still haven’t found anything with feathers close to that caladathing.
- Selena: [frown] That’s so not what I’m here about!
- Selena: What are you crying for?
- Shura: [embarrassed] I’m not-
- Shura: [eyes closed] *sigh* Today. It’s… it’s around this time a while ago that Kohga fell. For me, anyway.
- Selena: …for you?
- Shura: Yeah. Things like that, they don’t happen all at once. I wasn’t in the capital at the time, so…
- Shura: [injured] I made it to the border pretty quick. But after that, it was just… waiting.
- Shura: I didn’t even know what was going on at first. Why we’d left home, why I had to leave my training. I was so furious at my family for dragging me away…
- Shura: Turned out there was some bigshot in the group of refugees we joined. Big enough that a whole squad of Mokushu’s finest came to wipe us out.
- Shura: The blood, the screaming, the helplessness…
- Shura: I’d pray you never have to find out what it’s like, but I’m guessing you already know.
- Selena: [sad] …Yeah.
- Selena: It was such a nice day. There were even stupid birds singing.
- Selena: Then suddenly, there was screaming, running- like everyone suddenly lost it. I couldn’t find my parents anywhere, and…
- Selena: [crying] D-damn… look what you made me do!
- Shura: [crying, embarrassed] Misery loves company, y’know.
- Selena: You really think you could stand going back there?
- Shura: [surprised] How do you mean?
- Selena: [unsure] I… my homeland, they rebuilt eventually. Sorta.
- Selena: [eyes closed] But I hated being back there. Brought it all back.
- Selena: And the people who were there didn’t get it at all. The way they looked at me made me so mad!
- Selena: It was like they… they…
- Shura: …Pitied you?
- Selena: [angry] Yeah.
- Shura: Hah. Yeah, that’s gotta be the worst. They don’t know what to say, so they try and imagine it happening to them, and…
- Selena: [angry] It’s so fake! And pointless! “Ohhh, that must’ve been so hard for you!”
- Shura: “At least you made it out alive.”
- Selena: [smile] “You’re sooo brave!”
- Shura: [smile] “You’re so strong!”
- Selena: Hahaha…
- Shura: Heh…
- Selena: You still owe me for making me cry.
- Shura: Hey, I found your feather thing! Doesn’t this make us even?
- Selena: [wink] Not even close.
- S-support
- Selena: [unsure, blush] (Calling me out here in the middle of the night, under the stars…)
- Selena: [smirk] (He’s either really smooth, or…)
- Selena: [frown] (…really LATE.)
- [Shura appears]
- Shura: Hey, sorry! It took longer to set than I thought.
- Shura: Here, check it out!
- Shura: [smile] Turns out my contacts are good for something after all.
- Selena: [surprised] It looks perfect…
- Shura: The old caladrius feathers are in there too. I just bolstered them with the new ones.
- Selena: I can’t believe you actually did it.
- Selena: [injured] Ugh, this means I owe you again!
- Shura: [smile] Yep. I’ve got an idea of how you can pay me back, though.
- Selena: [smile, blush] Oh yeah?
- Shura: Tell me your real name.
- Selena: [surprised] Seriously!?
- Shura: You’re that surprised I figured it out?
- Selena: [angry, blush] No, I- that was NOT the direction I thought you were taking that!
- Selena: Do you deliberately seek out the smoothest possible openings and then botch them completely?!
- Shura: Wha?
- Selena: [blush, angry] Ugh! Isn’t it obvious?!
- Selena: [unsure, blush] …It’s Severa.
- Selena: Don’t tell anyone I told you.
- Shura: [smile] Severa, huh?
- Shura: Which do you prefer?
- Selena: [surprised] You know… I’m not even sure any more.
- Selena: [smirk] I mean, I’m way more mature now, obviously.
- Selena: [unsure] But Severa was the name she gave me…
- Selena: [blush, annoyed] What do you think?
- Shura: [surprised] Why are you asking me?
- Selena: Isn’t it obvious?!
- Shura: [sweat] You keep saying that, but…
- Selena: [eyes closed] You’re hopeless.
- Selena: …Selena.
- Selena: I stopped being Severa when I left that place. And I like being Selena.
- Selena: Protecting Lady Camilla, living in Nohr, even following Lord/Lady Avatar…
- Selena: I never belonged anywhere before like this. Maybe if things had been different I could’ve belonged back there, but…
- Shura: [eyes closed, smile] I get you.
- Shura: In that case, Selena… can I give you this?
- Selena: [surprised, blush] It’s beautiful…
- Shura: [blush] In Kohga, it’s tradition to give jewellery throughout courtship.
- Selena: [smile, blush] Courtship, huh?
- Shura: If you think I’m worthy.
- Selena: [blush] Well, obviously!
- Selena: Took you long enough!
- Shura: [blush] I wanted to be absolutely sure you felt the same way.
- Selena: [smile, blush] You could stand to be a bit quicker on the uptake.
- Shura: Hey, better safe than sorry.
