You have something to say, or do you just like staring at me?
link Yuri volume_up
Merely thinking about your brother, that's all.
link Yuri volume_up
I only caught a glimpse of him at Arianrhod, but he was nothing like what the rumors suggested.
link Sylvain volume_up
You mean the ones about the eldest son of a noble family falling from grace? Taking up a life of banditry and wanton destruction?
link Yuri volume_up
The very same! They say he was a foul knave who stole not to survive, but because he took such great pleasure from the act.
link Yuri volume_up
Still, I suppose one shouldn't take such rumors at face value.
link Sylvain volume_up
Actually, there's a fair amount of truth to what they say. At least there was, up until two years ago.
link Sylvain volume_up
Yet still His Majesty thought it was wise to recruit him to our side, and somehow managed to do just that.
link Yuri volume_up
Yes, I hear he wooed your brother with the chance to demonstrate how the Crestless can still make something of themselves.
link Yuri volume_up
His honeyed words drew him in, at which point he began to play the man's inferiority complex like a mandolin.
link Sylvain volume_up
Seems like you're more cunning than I realized. You really have eyes and ears everywhere, huh?
link Yuri volume_up
You're one to talk of cunning, springing as you do from the loins of Margrave Gautier himself.
link Yuri volume_up
I know you've been keeping tabs on my every move.
link Sylvain volume_up
What?
link Yuri volume_up
In my line of work, one learns to pick up on hostile presences rather quickly.
link Yuri volume_up
From the day we met, you've been waiting for me to take one wrong step so you can cut me down.
link Yuri volume_up
I'd heard the heir of House Gautier was nothing more than a base philanderer, but it seems that rumor isn't completely true, either.
link Yuri volume_up
Just look at you, having the gall to call me out while you hide behind the murderous grin plastered on your face. I know you've killed without hesitation.
link Sylvain volume_up
Hey, we've all made mistakes. There's no need to rehash the past.
link Sylvain volume_up
And what's this murderous grin you're talking about? What would that even look like?
link Yuri volume_up
The fact you aren't conscious of it makes you all the more dangerous—unless that pained grimace just now was also part of your act.
link Yuri volume_up
Regardless, that "Crest-bearing fool" nickname you picked up seems woefully inappropriate for one of your caliber.
link Yuri volume_up
It's clear you inherited your father's cunning and then some.
link Sylvain volume_up
I'm not sure whether to take that as a compliment or just start sobbing.
link Yuri volume_up
The former. There aren't many in Fódlan capable of winning my true respect.
link Yuri volume_up
For my part, I'll watch where I step...lest I end up with one of your blades lodged in my back.
