Dedue? What are you doing here?
link Dedue volume_up
Ah, Annette. I was...training.
link Annette volume_up
Wow. Do you ever take a break?
link Annette volume_up
'Cause you should. It's almost dinnertime.
link Dedue volume_up
I don't plan to stop yet. I'm still not strong enough.
link Annette volume_up
Not strong? You mean with your axe? C'mon, you're plenty good at swinging that guy around!
link Dedue volume_up
No. I must make up for my inability to wield a Hero's Relic.
link Dedue volume_up
You, Felix, and the others are all able to make use of their immense power.
link Dedue volume_up
I know I can never rise to that level, but if I could somehow close the gap...
link Dedue volume_up
To be honest, I'm envious... Envious of your ability to wield such a powerful instrument.
link Annette volume_up
Whoa. I don't think I've ever heard you open up like that before.
link Dedue volume_up
I apologize. Please forget I said anything.
link Annette volume_up
No! I'm happy you told me! I feel closer to you now.
link Annette volume_up
Anyway, I think you're really strong already. I don't know what we'd do without you!
link Dedue volume_up
Truly?
link Annette volume_up
Yeah! You're invaluable with or without a Relic.
link Annette volume_up
Crests and Relics are only useful on the battlefield, anyway.
link Annette volume_up
But you? You can cook and sew and do all kinds of helpful stuff. Meanwhile, I'm pretty much just nine thumbs and a toe.
link Annette volume_up
Plus, you swing around that heavy axe like it's nothing! So I mean it, Dedue. You're amazing.
link Dedue volume_up
We each have something the other lacks.
link Annette volume_up
Exactly. Besides, maybe it's a good thing that you can't use a Relic.
link Annette volume_up
If you could, you'd be too good and the rest of us would just be getting in your way all the time.
link Annette volume_up
Training is fine and dandy, but don't be so hard on yourself, OK?
link Dedue volume_up
You're strong in your own way, Annette.
link Dedue volume_up
Your optimism is infectious. It aids not only me, but everyone else as well.
link Annette volume_up
Aw, you're making me blush! Still, I guess being positive sort of is one of my special talents, huh?
link Annette volume_up
And if it managed to help you even a little, that's enough for me.
link Annette volume_up
Anyway, I made dinner today, so let's head back and start feasting. It'll be yummy, promise!
link Annette volume_up
I mean, I did manage to make the bottom of the pot fall out, so things got a little hairy there for a second. But it smells great!
link Dedue volume_up
The bottom...fell out?
link Annette volume_up
Yeah, but it turned out amazing, I swear. I can't wait for you to try some.
link Dedue volume_up
How did you manage to... Never mind. Let's eat before it grows cold.
