There you are, Felix! Why didn't you tell me?
link Felix volume_up
Tell you what?
link Sylvain volume_up
About the fight you got into the other day with those soldiers.
link Felix volume_up
Oh. That. Don't worry, I won't do it again.
link Sylvain volume_up
One of my men told me the whole story of what actually went down.
link Sylvain volume_up
Apparently, one of your soldiers was mocking the heir of House Gautier...who just so happens to be me.
link Sylvain volume_up
Then he started getting into it with everyone else, which is when you decided to jump in.
link Felix volume_up
Worst decision of my life. But like I said, I'm done with all that.
link Felix volume_up
I only stepped in because I thought it was my responsibility to make my men see sense.
link Felix volume_up
But my fists tend to move faster than my brain, as I'm sure you know.
link Sylvain volume_up
I'm very well aware. Still, I'm curious why you didn't tell me everything right away.
link Felix volume_up
Because he said some really nasty stuff about you. I didn't want your delicate ears dropping off in horror.
link Sylvain volume_up
OK, now I'm even more curious... Anyway, sorry for tearing into you without knowing the full story.
link Felix volume_up
No, I'm the one who should apologize. I can't let personal life influence business, even if it does concern you.
link Sylvain volume_up
You shouldn't worry about it. People speaking poorly about me is something of a regular occurrence.
link Sylvain volume_up
And honestly? I deserve every last bit of it. I was a real scoundrel in my younger days. Caused a whole lot of people a whole lot of headaches.
link Sylvain volume_up
That kind of talk isn't your fault or your soldiers' fault. The blame lies squarely with the man I used to be.
link Felix volume_up
So why didn't you do something about that man when you were younger?
link Sylvain volume_up
It was just... I had to be that way, you know? I had to play the part of the flippant, carefree rogue because...
link Sylvain volume_up
Anyway, look. I know I'm a real piece of work, but that's just me being me.
link Felix volume_up
Fine. Perhaps you do deserve to be made fun of.
link Felix volume_up
But I still won't stand it coming from a bunch of curs who don't know a single thing about you.
link Felix volume_up
You may not have the title of margrave yet, but you still make yourself pretty useful.
link Felix volume_up
I've seen how you've helped the boar, and... I guess how you help me, too.
link Sylvain volume_up
Wow, Felix. That's...wow. Hoo boy, I think someone's cutting onions in here.
link Felix volume_up
Be quiet! Can't you listen to someone for two seconds without opening your fat mouth and completely ruining the moment?!
link Felix volume_up
You always have been too smart and too loud for your own good, even if no one can match you in military tactics or domestic affairs.
link Felix volume_up
It's like you said: We've got problems piling up both inside and out of the Kingdom.
link Felix volume_up
But with you around, we might just be able to see our way clear of it.
link Sylvain volume_up
That's a lot of problems to pile on one person. Especially when he isn't half great as you're implying.
link Sylvain volume_up
I mean, I might be, say, seven percent more cunning than you? But that's pretty much it.
link Sylvain volume_up
If we really want to be useful to Faerghus and Dimitri, we need to work together so we can balance out each other's weaknesses.
link Felix volume_up
I suppose that's true.
link Felix volume_up
In which case, I guess I'm counting on you. I may even...need you. Maybe.
link Felix volume_up
Besides, I'd be stuck with nothing but miserably dour folks without you around. I'm not sure I could handle it.
link Sylvain volume_up
You don't have to tell me twice, old friend. I'll always be there for you—I promise.
