1. There you are, Lin!
  2. Mmm? Oh, Dorothea. How unusual. I didn't expect [cdb]to see you in a place like this.
  3. It's not unusual when I've been looking for you [cdb]literally everywhere!
  4. You skipped out on the war council meeting this [cdb]morning, and Edie was livid.
  5. You skipped out on the war council meeting this [cdb]morning, and Dimitri seemed very disappointed.
  6. You skipped out on the war council meeting this [cdb]morning. Claude seemed very upset with you.
  7. Yes, something came up that required pulling an [cdb]all-nighter two nights in a row, so I had some sleep [cdb]debts to repay.
  8. Next time, maybe spare a thought for the person [cdb]who'll get stuck having to track you down.
  9. We discussed important matters in the meeting, [cdb]you know. There was some kind of accident, and [cdb]we're now experiencing a delay on supplies.
  10. And now we need to ration our food? It's a pain, [cdb]but these things happen.
  11. In the worst case, we're supposed to be considering [cdb]ways to forage for food ourselves, right?
  12. I suppose I can handle it if we need to fish, but I'll [cdb]have to pass on tromping through the fields and [cdb]mountains to harvest wild...whatevers.
  13. Wait, how do you know all this? You weren't even at [cdb]the meeting, were you?
  14. Because I had someone who attended take notes [cdb]for me.
  15. Wait. You had someone...
  16. More importantly, you should go to Her Majesty and [cdb]propose a review of our supply logistics.
  17. More importantly, you should propose a review of [cdb]our supply logistics at the next war council meeting.
  18. Considering our current position on the front lines, [cdb]we should break up the transportation of provisions [cdb]along multiple routes.
  19. It may cost a little more to split things up, but it'll [cdb]allow us to avoid situations like this.
  20. Overall, it should provide many benefits—and the [cdb]plan will be viable for use in future campaigns, too.
  21. Wow...
  22. Dorothea?
  23. This sort of thing really gets your brain going, huh?
  24. Still, I wish you'd just go to the meetings and share all [cdb]of these opinions. People would be thrilled at your [cdb]resourcefulness, you know!
  25. Oh, I'm quite happy with things the way they are. Attending meetings would only add to my headaches.
  26. You can only run from this for so long, Lin.
  27. And sure, I'll propose what you asked me to—but I'm [cdb]going to do so in your name.
  28. Wait, are you serious?
  29. Oh, very much so. I couldn't possibly take the credit [cdb]for something you thought up, right?
  30. I suppose that's fair. I can feel the headaches [cdb]forming already.
