Avatar: Ah, Gunter, there you are.

Gunter: Lady Avatar...

Avatar: I didn't see you around camp; I was starting to get worried.

Gunter: No need to worry. Old men like me just prefer to relax alone sometimes.

Avatar: I see...

Gunter: By the way, Lady Avatar...do you recognize this ball?

Avatar: Hm? Oh... Wait, I do! This is the ball we used to play catch with! This brings back memories...

Gunter: It's seen better days, but it's still in pretty good condition, don't you think?

Avatar: It really is; I'm impressed. I didn't realize that you'd kept it after all this time.

Gunter: I could never bring myself to throw it away. It's filled with too many memories. You know that I made this the same year I began serving you? We played so many games of catch with it.

Avatar: It really does stir up all those old memories.

Gunter: How does a round of catch sound to you? For old times' sake.

Avatar: I'd love to!

Gunter: Excellent. I have a few tasks to deal with today, but we'll play sometime soon?

Avatar: I look forward to it.

Avatar: Hey, Gunter! I'm here to play!

Gunter: Excellent. I just finished my warm-up exercises, too.

Avatar: I stretched before I came over, so we can get started right away. Hmmm... Do you think this is too close?

Gunter: We can probably start at about five paces and back up as we get going.

Avatar: Sounds good! So...here then!

Gunter: Perfect. Ready, Lady Avatar?

Avatar: I'm always ready!

Gunter: Then...catch!

Avatar: Ha, I got it! That was simple enough.

Gunter: Well done! I see you haven't lost your touch at all.

Avatar: Hah, or your throws are deliberately easy for me to catch!

Gunter: You mean unlike the ones you throw to me? I'm liable to pull something with how far I have to reach to catch them.

Avatar: Oh, you mean like...this?!

Gunter: Ouch, that was a fast throw! My hand actually stings from catching it.

Avatar: Faster than when I was little?

Gunter: By leaps and bounds, for sure. I wasn't certain I would be able to catch it. If you keep that up, I won't be able to play for long. Catch!

Avatar: And right back at you!

Gunter: Well done. Heh, this is rather enjoyable, actually.

Avatar: Agreed. I'm glad it still feels like we can connect just by tossing the ball around.

Gunter: It's strange, is it not?

Avatar: I'm back for more, Gunter!

Gunter: I had a feeling you'd be back. Do you need to stretch, or are you ready?

Avatar: Ready as I'll ever be! There's no way I'm missing one of your throws!

Gunter: All right, then. Here we go.

Avatar: And easily caught. I have to say, Gunter, you have excellent form and follow-through. You know, I just remembered... Wasn't this ball made from a whip?

Gunter: It was indeed. A pretty odd choice for material, I know...

Avatar: Gunter... Would you be willing to tell me a few stories from when I was growing up? I still have a lot of holes in my memory from when I was little.

Gunter: Of course. But you'll have to pay attention to the ball at the same time! Did I ever tell you how come I made this ball from a whip? No... King Garon was in an especially foul mood one day. He summoned me and handed me a whip. "You must teach Avatar to behave!" he said, almost yelling.

Avatar: Was I truly that problematic?

Gunter: Not in the least, in fact. But you were really closed off around everyone. King Garon was greatly displeased by that. So I took the whip from him, and I made my way to your room. I thought I was ready, but one look at your face... I turned right around, returned to my room, and broke that whip down into leather. And that's what this ball is made from.

Avatar: What an unexpected turn! You turned something meant to punish me into a toy.

Gunter: Indeed. I knew that striking you wouldn't ever get you to open up to anyone. So I came up with a different method—one that used this ball. I returned to your room sometime later, and I rolled the ball over to you.

Avatar: Which I immediately picked up, examined, and threw back to you.

Gunter: Oh, you remember this part? Good.

Avatar: Of course! No sooner did you catch it than you were throwing it back to me again. Something about such a simple game was really fun to me. I suppose that was when I started to see you as a father figure...

Gunter: You... You are much too kind. Ah, now look what you've made me do.

Avatar: Gunter! It's rare that you miss a catch.

Gunter: My sincerest apologies. There was...something in my eye.

Avatar: Getting sentimental in your old age? Hang on, I'll get you a handkerchief.

Avatar: Gunter, I'm ready for another game of catch. What do you say?

Gunter: Certainly. However, I'd like to revive a deal we had when you were growing up.

Avatar: Oh? What deal are you talking about?

Gunter: The one where, if you missed a catch, you'd have to do as I instructed.

Avatar: Oh, I remember this deal. You always used this when I was refusing to study or train...

Gunter: Exactly. I'll throw more and more difficult passes, and you have to catch them. We can work out some reward later if you catch them all, but I doubt you will.

Avatar: That sounds like fun to me. Let's do it!

Gunter: I imagine you'll have no trouble with a normal throw, so... Try and catch...this!

Avatar: What the— You threw it straight up!

Gunter: And with the sun overhead, you'll have a bit of trouble, I bet...

Avatar: I think I... Awwww! It got away from me...

Gunter: Hahaha. That one always got you. You haven't changed a bit.

Avatar: I can't believe I didn't remember that trick. You used it so often, too...

Gunter: And since you missed, you must answer a question I have for you.

Avatar: All right, ask away.

Gunter: Is there anyone in camp that you have particularly strong feelings for?

Avatar: Wh-what? Why would you ask that?

Gunter: Ah, I'm the one who is asking questions.

Avatar: That's fair... There is someone in camp, yes...

Gunter: Really? I see. Then... Tell me, milady, who is this person?

Avatar: You really want to know, Gunter? It's... Well, it's you.

Gunter: It is?! Lady Avatar, I had no idea. I had no idea you felt the same as I do.

Avatar: Gunter, do you mean...?

Gunter: I care very deeply for you. I kept it to myself because you are my liege, though. I thought for sure that I would be taking these feelings to my grave, but... Hearing you say that you cared for me... I couldn't remain silent. Ah, that felt so good to finally say. I'm sorry if it is too much to take in at once.

Avatar: Gunter, you should throw the ball again.

Gunter: Excuse me, milady?

Avatar: If I don't catch it, you'll have to ask something of me again... And I can guess that it will be "Can we be together?"

Gunter: Avatar...

Avatar: It's all or nothing, Gunter! You'd better throw that ball really high!

Gunter: Very well. This ball may well touch the sun before it comes back!

(Confession Scene)

Gunter: I think you missed that one on purpose, but I suppose I have to ask now: Will you please... marry me?
