Warriors Supports/Ryoma Leo

Ryoma: Pardon me, Prince Leo, but do you have a few moments to, erm...hang out?

Leo: Hang out? This is so unlike you, Prince Ryoma.

Ryoma: Yes, well... Hinoka suggested that particular verbiage... But it was my idea to come see you and take a break from my duties.

Leo: I see. I don't mind, of course, but I can't help but notice you're unarmed. In a different time, I would act on this opportunity. What would you have done?

Ryoma: Hmm. It's a fair question. I would be at a slight disadvantage with no blade.

Leo: A slight disadvantage? That's putting it mildly, I'd think.

Ryoma: Well, those days are over, are they not? Besides...if you were going to attack me, I assume I'd already be gravely wounded.

Leo: Heh. Anyhow, there is something I've been meaning to ask you. The other day, you covered me in battle and sustained an injury in the process. I had no idea you'd put yourself in danger for me. After all, it wasn't long ago that we were mortal enemies.

Ryoma: Hmph. It was nothing--a mere scratch.

Leo: Perhaps, but I can't seem to let it go. I feel I owe you a debt now.

Ryoma: You're thinking about this the wrong way, Prince Leo. Consider what each of us means to this war. We must look out for each other!

Leo: Yes, that's true. So you were acting in the interest of the greater good?

Ryoma: Exactly. Fighting over past grievances will get us nowhere.

Leo: Indeed. And teaming up has been effective, I might add. So I suppose I don't have to worry about you attacking ME out of the blue either!

Ryoma: You certainly do not. In fact, the reason I came to see you is... I have begun to consider you a friend.

Leo: My, my. I have done well for myself, becoming friends with the great Ryoma! In all seriousness, I consider you a friend as well. But I must caution you--in times like this, it does not pay to become too friendly. You should be thinking of your own life in battle--you are that important! Although it hurts my ego to admit it, we cannot afford to lose you...

Ryoma: Well...thank you, Leo. I promise you that I will consider my own well-being. ­ And, if I might add...I believe I could learn a few things from you. The way you always stay composed in battle is admirable. And you have the ability to cut right to the core of things. I lack that trait.

Leo: Then by all means...let us learn from each other. We will grow stronger together than we ever could individually. ...Just don't be surprised if I surpass you before long... I jest, Ryoma.
