- For me? Really? Well, that's very kind of you.
Let's eat it together.
- What have I done to deserve this? Um, I mean,
[cdb]thank you.
- I eat what I'm given, but could you... Hmm, how do
I put this? Please never serve this to me again.
- Actually, I'd prefer a nap. Do you mind if I curl up
[cdb]somewhere when we arrive at our destination?
- Yes! Let's ride like the wind to a utopia where we can
[cdb]nap like royalty!
- This is certainly a peaceful place, and there is plenty
[cdb]of fluffy grass for me to flop onto.
- Hunh?! I think I dozed off just there! This place
[cdb]really is sleep-inducing.
- The view from up here is fantastic. I just wish we
[cdb]didn't have to do all that climbing first...
- Let's not nap too close to the water, all right? I prefer
[cdb]sleep to drowning.
- You sing? I had no idea! Are there any other hidden
[cdb]talents you'd care to charm me with?
- A big eater, are you? Well, I'm a big sleeper, so let's
[cdb]continue this conversation after my nap.
- This is just like Caspar—he was always dragging me
[cdb]out to the woods for some task or another.
- All right, but make sure to find something sweet.
I don't do well with bitter or sour fruits.
- Why would you... Oh, never mind. Let's just hurry
[cdb]home before the weather gets any worse.
- After we went through the trouble to come out here?
No, I say we wait it out.
- You don't need to ask me twice! Not to brag, but I'm
[cdb]really quite the angler.
- And then our clothes will be soaking wet. Your lack of
[cdb]foresight is...surprisingly charming sometimes.
- Mind if I catch some shut-eye? I feel so safe with you
I can't help myself.
- Oh, sorry. I was thinking about you so intently that I
[cdb]lost track of the conversation. What were you saying?
- I thought for certain you would have a Crest, but no.
I still find that so strange...
- Let's rest here a bit longer. Also, horseback riding
[cdb]really should be classified as heavy labor...
- Have you ever been to Hevring territory? The seat of
[cdb]power sits in a steep valley, and the slopes are simply
[cdb]impossible!
- The aristocracy often meets in the Imperial capital,
[cdb]so I recognized many of the other students when I
[cdb]first arrived at the academy.
- I'm fond of the little silences you often get in the
[cdb]middle of conversations.
- I enjoy our time together. What about you?
- What worries me most is that I might have to follow
[cdb]in my father's footsteps and take up politics.
- I long for an age of peace when I can nap any old time
I please.
- Oh, I don't believe in moping. Either I find a solution
[cdb]to my problem, or I run from it as fast as my legs will
[cdb]carry me.
- I basically live however I please—and I'm sure you
[cdb]can imagine how my family feels about that.
- Wouldn't you rather hear about a book I've read?
Or perhaps some tales of Caspar's daring exploits?
- I count myself blessed to be among such diligent
[cdb]friends, though I could certainly do without all of
[cdb]this warfare.
- I mildly resent the implication that I'm into fighting,
[cdb]but I suppose I would have to say magic.
- Are you offering to subject yourself to my research?
No? How boring.
- Have you noticed any physical changes in yourself?
I worry about your well-being.
- The good things are good, and the bad ones are bad.
Nothing ever changes, I suppose.
- As usual, I'm sleepy, but I've no one to blame but...
myself... Zzz...
- I've had that tie for quite some time—someone did
[cdb]my hair up while I was sleeping. I barely remember it.
- Maintaining my hair is such a nuisance. It's so fine,
[cdb]it gets tangled at the drop of a hat.
- Hmm? I look sleepy? No, I am sleepy—I've missed
[cdb]two naps already since dawn.
- People say I have nice skin. Perhaps I got it from my
[cdb]mother? Regardless, I take it as a compliment.
- The book is utterly fascinating, especially the parts in
[cdb]the old tongue that I can't decipher.
- Won't someone invent clothes that are easy to change
[cdb]out of? These outfits are just so impractical.
- That was more excitement than I'm used to, but I did
[cdb]have fun. Let's do it again.
- I'll dock a few points for a missed nap, but otherwise
I had a wonderful time. Thank you.
- I'll do what I can.
