Um... May I speak with you a moment?
link Shez volume_up
Oh, yeah, I was just about to take a break. You need something?
link Lysithea volume_up
Our relationship has been strained for a while, so I thought it was time to resolve our issues.
link Shez volume_up
Uh... It has?
link Lysithea volume_up
Yes. At least I've felt that way, ever since the incident.
link Shez volume_up
Oh, you mean that time I found you hiding out and chowing down on some pastries?
link Shez volume_up
Oh, you mean that time you were hollering about some ghost, but it turned out to be a dead tree?
link Shez volume_up
I didn't think anything about that. And I didn't tell anyone either.
link Lysithea volume_up
No, not that! Well, yes, there was that, but there was another, more defining incident, remember?
link Shez volume_up
Are you talking about the time I treated you like a kid and you got all mad?
link Lysithea volume_up
Yes, of course that's what I'm talking about.
link Shez volume_up
That happened a long time ago. Has it really been eating at you ever since?
link Lysithea volume_up
Well, I mean, I was unable to maintain my composure and got rather aggressive with you over trivial details.
link Lysithea volume_up
I kept telling myself that I had to apologize, but I could never bring myself to do it. But now... I'm, uh... I'm sorry.
link Shez volume_up
Well, I'd like to apologize too. I should've been more careful with what I said.
link Shez volume_up
Why does being called a kid upset you so much?
link Shez volume_up
If you don't think of yourself that way, then any comments of the kind should be like water off a duck's back.
link Lysithea volume_up
Look, I'm a tiny bit younger than everyone else, and it doesn't help that I'm shorter too.
link Lysithea volume_up
Plus, I do have somewhat of a baby face.
link Shez volume_up
Really? You don't look that young to me.
link Lysithea volume_up
You... You don't think so?
link Shez volume_up
Yeah. Now that I really look at you, I think you're a very pretty young woman. You act real mature too.
link Lysithea volume_up
Oh, no, I'm not really...
link Shez volume_up
But most importantly, your skill at commanding troops puts all the real adults to shame.
link Lysithea volume_up
Hold on. "Real adults"?! So what you're saying is that I'm ultimately still just a child!
link Shez volume_up
Ah crud, I misspoke. What I meant was...
link Lysithea volume_up
There you go, making excuses again. Now I know exactly what you think of me.
link Shez volume_up
This conversation's going sideways again, isn't it?
link Lysithea volume_up
Hmph! It would seem so. Though... I suppose forgiving you would be the mature thing to do.
link Shez volume_up
Hey, there you go! See? You are a real grown-up, Lysithea!
link Lysithea volume_up
Something about this still rubs me the wrong way, but... Oh fine. I just ask that you keep treating me like the adult I am.
