- Ophelia: Brother! Long time no see! How are your victory poses coming along?
- Siegbert: [smile, sweat] Um- well! They’re going well!
- Ophelia: [frown, sweat] You haven’t practiced them at all since we parted ways, have you?
- Siegbert: [sweat] No. Sorry, sister.
- Ophelia: [frown] I know there’s been a lot on, but these things are important, Sieggy!
- Ophelia: We have to comport ourselves in a manner befitting our station!
- Siegbert: As royalty?
- Ophelia: And as heroic agents of destiny!
- Ophelia: Now, show me what you’ve got!
- Siegbert: [sweat, smile] Um- like this?
- Ophelia: Pithy quote, please.
- Siegbert: “Take that, evildoer!”
- Ophelia: [sweat, smile] Good! Good first attempt.
- Ophelia: (Although the hair flick only really draws attention to the problem…)
- Ophelia: Okay, give me some time. I’m going to workshop this.
- Ophelia: [wink] Fear not, brother! I’ll solve your image problem in no time!
- [Ophelia leaves]
- Siegbert: [worried] I have an image problem?
- B-support
- Ophelia: Brother! Are you ready for your magical transformation from drab to debonair?
- Siegbert: [sweat] My transformation?
- Ophelia: [smile] Behold, my artistic rendition of Siegbert the Supreme!
- Siegbert: (Is… Is this stick figure supposed to be me? Are those spikes on my head?)
- Ophelia: No, that’s your hair! Spiky hair is standard hero protocol these days!
- Siegbert: But my hair’s curly…
- Ophelia: Worry not! With just a bit of this mystical gel, your hair will stick straight up like a sword raised to heaven!
- Ophelia: Now, hold st-
- Siegbert: Ack! Don’t touch my hair!
- Ophelia: [frown] You used to let me style it back in our Deeprealm, though!
- Siegbert: [blush] That- that was different. I have it how I like it now.
- Siegbert: I’m willing to work on a victory pose, but leave my hair in peace.
- Ophelia: [frown] Lies ill suit you. Your ears turn red.
- Siegbert: [sweat, blush] Fine! I’ll tell you, but you must promise not to laugh.
- Ophelia: I swear by our illustrious ancestors!
- Siegbert: [eyes closed, blush] …Look. My fringe hides this discoloration.
- Ophelia: [surprised] *gasp* That pristine mark – it’s the same as mine! Look!
- Siegbert: [surprised] What do you think it means?
- Ophelia: [wink] That we’re fated to be wonderful heroes, of course! Why would you hide it?
- Siegbert: I thought it was some kind of scar.
- Ophelia: Honestly, brother! What would you do without me?
- Ophelia: Now, let’s make sure it’s exposed for all the world to see like thiiis…
- Ophelia: There!
- Siegbert: [frown, sweat] …
- Ophelia: Now, for your victory pose, I was thinking…

- Ophelia: A beautiful maiden approaches the battlefield! And what is her name? Ophelia Dusk, sorceress of twilight!
- Siegbert: [blush] A majestic hero steps i-into the light? And what is m- his name? Siegbert Dawn-
- Siegbert: [closed eyes, blush] …
- Ophelia: [sweat] You were so close! Come on, we need to be ready for tomorrow’s battle!
- Siegbert: I don’t think I can do this in a real battle, Ofie.
- Ophelia: [sad] Whyever not? Does public opinion truly hold such sway over you?
- Siegbert: [blush] …A king must command respect. And failure to speak with sufficient gravitas will just make me look foolish.
- Siegbert: [eyes closed] I can’t risk that.
- Ophelia: [sad] Oh, Siegbert…
- Siegbert: [surprised] Ack! Ophelia? Are you okay?
- Ophelia: [upset] You fret so much about the way others think of you! I know you used to love playing at being heroes together – you were the one who came up with doing victory poses in the first place!
- Siegbert: [sad] I can’t keep doing that, though. I need to be serious, as befits a-
- Ophelia: [frown] Stop it!
- Ophelia: Being a king is playing a role, just the same as being a legendary hero!
- Ophelia: You can’t BE that all the time, no-one can! You’d go mad!
- Siegbert: [surprised] …
- Ophelia: [upset] You don’t have to sacrifice what you enjoy just because we’re growing up!
- Siegbert: [sad] I’m sorry. I didn’t realise my actions were hurting you so much.
- Ophelia: [determined] I’m your sister, after all! Our pain is shared!
- Ophelia: You don’t have to go declaring your justice on the battlefield, but…
- Ophelia: Promise me that you’ll let yourself enjoy being a legendary hero, at least when it’s just you and I?
- Siegbert: [smile] …I promise.
- Ophelia: [wink] I didn’t hear you.
- Siegbert: [smile] Ahem- I vow to let my heroism shine through the darkness, oh luminary sister!
- Siegbert: [smile, closed eyes] For I am Siegbert Dawn!
