- C-support
- [Gerome alone]
- Gerome: [injured] D-damn it all…
- Gerome: To finally reunite with Lucina and the others, only for this…
- Gerome: [eyes closed] …It’ll pass soon…
- Sumia: [offscreen] Um- Gerome?
- Sumia: You missed dinner, so I brought your- WHOA!
- [crash SFX]
- Sumia: [sweat] There goes your dinner. Sorry!
- Gerome: [frown] It’s unimportant. I’ll clean this up, so just l-
- Sumia: [worried] What is THAT?!
- Gerome: [injured] Nothing of interest to you.
- Sumia: Nothing of- I’m your mother, aren’t I?
- Gerome: No. You’re not.
- Gerome: [frown] My mother died, a long time ago.
- Sumia: [sad] I- I know that, but…
- Gerome: I don’t need you meddling in my affairs, so just leave, would you?
- Sumia: [determined] I won’t just leave you injured like this.
- Gerome: [frown, sweat] It’s not as bad as it looks. It’s mostly healed.
- Gerome: I have no interest in dying.
- Sumia: [unsure] Promise you’ll go see Lissa or Maribelle if it worsens?
- Gerome: Very well. Whatever it takes for you to leave me alone.
- Sumia: Good! Well, then, I’ll be right back with a new dinner plate for you!
- [Sumia leaves]
- Gerome: [sweat, frown] Was she even listening?
- B-support
- Sumia: [frown] Gerome! We have GOT to talk!
- Gerome: [frown] You again?
- Sumia: Minerva told me what happened last battle!
- Gerome: [surprised] She what?!
- Gerome: [eyes closed, sweat] I suppose- if you’re a past version of her, it makes sense you could speak to her, but still…
- Sumia: That’s not the problem here! You’re still hurt!
- Sumia: It’s not healed at all, is it?
- Gerome: It’s none of your concern.
- Sumia: [frown] Why are you being so stubborn about this?
- Gerome: I’m only here out of loyalty to Lucina. I’m not interested in forming attachments with you.
- Sumia: [sad] I know. And I respect that.
- Sumia: I’m not concerned about you as someone who looks like your mother. I’m concerned as a fellow Shepherd.
- Gerome: [frown] …I see.
- Sumia: What about this? If you let me help treat your wound, I’ll leave you alone once it’s healed.
- Sumia: [smile, closed eyes] But if you don’t let me help, I’ll tell everyone about it. Do you accept my offer?
- Gerome: [sweat] That’s not an offer, that’s blackmail!
- Sumia: [smile] Whatever it takes.
- Gerome: [eyes closed, injured] …Very well.
- A-support
- Sumia: [eyes closed] And… there.
- Sumia: [sad] I can’t believe there were still claw fragments trapped in there.
- Gerome: [frown] I had no idea. I can’t see it properly, after all.
- Sumia: See, that’s why you need to go visit a healer.
- Sumia: [frown] A proper healer would probably have fixed this ages ago, but you’re stuck with me.
- Gerome: Your healing skills are satisfactory enough. Don’t sell yourself short.
- Sumia: [smile] Aww, thank you.
- Sumia: Do you mind if I ask how you got such an injury?
- Gerome: [injured] …I was protecting Minerva.
- Sumia: Oh…
- Gerome: It was shortly before we went through the portal.
- Gerome: Minerva and I were pinned down. One of the Risen managed to injure her wing.
- Gerome: I was desperate. I threw myself in front of her to try and shield her body.
- Gerome: [eyes closed] Foolish, I know.
- Sumia: [upset] No. You’re incredibly brave.
- Sumia: Whether they’re horses, pegasi, or wyverns, our mounts are more than just weapons – they’re our friends.
- Sumia: Sometimes our dearest friends of all.
- Sumia: I… I hope that if I came down to it, I’d have the courage to do the same for Belfire.
- Gerome: [sad] You did.
- Sumia: [surprised] I’m sorry, I- I know that I’m not her.
- Gerome: I know. And you’ve respected that, more than I ever expected.
- Gerome: [smile] Although perhaps I should’ve known.
- Gerome: Thank you, Sumia. I’ve been ungrateful, but your insistence on tending to my injury likely saved my life.
- Sumia: [smile] It’s no trouble. Thank you for letting me.
- Gerome: [blush] I, ah- I know that you promised to leave me alone after this, but…
- Gerome: [eyes closed] It would not be the worst thing if we were to spend more time together. Perhaps let Belfire and Minerva spread their wings together.
- Sumia: [smile] I’d love that. You just say when.
- Gerome: [smile] …Thank you.
