Kaden: Hey there, Setsuna! Wanna come hunting with me?

Setsuna: I like hunting, but...why do you want me to come along?

Kaden: Obviously because you're amazing with a bow! With my tracking skills, it'll be easy to find some animals to take down.

Setsuna: That does make sense... But you know I'm really good at falling into traps too, right? I'd probably just get in the way...

Kaden: No worries, there—I've got the best eyesight of anyone in camp! I'll spot the traps a mile away and let you know before you fall into any. So, since we've covered that, let's go!

Setsuna: All right...

(fade to black)

Kaden: Watch out over there. There's a trap right next to your foot. Take a step to the left.

Setsuna: OK...

Kaden: Excellent, but now you need to duck under that branch. It's hooked to a trip wire.

Setsuna: You're amazing, Kaden... How can you spot them so easily?

Kaden: It just comes naturally! It's actually odd to me that you can't see them, really.

Setsuna: Really? How interesting... Even if it comes naturally, you seem much better at it than other people I know. It's like you're detecting them purely on instinct or intuition...

Kaden: That's because that's exactly how I'm doing it, of course! I'm a kitsune, after all. My senses are much sharper than a human's. I really am quite impressive, aren't I?

Setsuna: Ah... Look over there. Is that a pheasant? Oops, it slipped into the bushes...

Kaden: Hang on, are you ignoring me?! *sigh* Let's go catch that pheasant!

Setsuna: Sounds good, Kaden... You track it, and I'll follow close behind.

Setsuna: I can't seem to figure it out...

Kaden: You're looking unusually focused, Setsuna. Is something wrong?

Setsuna: I'm still pondering how you so easily avoided all those traps... You talked about having sharper senses, but what is that like, really? Are you able to actually sense the presence of the traps?

Kaden: Hrm. It's tough to explain, really. I just get a sort of nagging feeling, and it stays with me until I spot the trap. Don't humans get feelings like that?

Setsuna: No... Or at least, I know I don't...

Kaden: Really? I thought it was something that happened to everyone.

Setsuna: Oooh, look over there. Those berries look absolutely delicious...

Kaden: What? Hang on, Setsuna. Can't you see the big hole in front of the berries? And in any case, those berries smell really off.

Setsuna: Off? They look really tasty, though...

Kaden: Um... How best to explain this... They smell like someone's hand, like they were being held recently. And if you look at the color you can see where the shade changes abruptly. That's a sure sign that they've been laced with some kind of poison.

Setsuna: Oh wow, you can even see that they've been poisoned? That's really neat... Can you teach me?

Kaden: I can teach you the basics, but you'd never be as good as a kitsune.

Setsuna: Aww... I'm sorry to hear that. Oh well...

Kaden: You'll be fine with me around, anyway! Let's get back to focusing on the hunt.

Setsuna: You're right... If I can't imitate you, then it's no use worrying about it...

Kaden: That's right, Setsuna. And more importantly...I can sense animals ahead! Follow me, or they'll get away!

Setsuna: OK...

A Support

Setsuna: Hey, Kaden... Thank you...

Kaden: What? What're you talking about, Setsuna?

Setsuna: Just that I noticed each time we've gone out hunting...I've never gotten trapped. I wanted to show my appreciation to you for keeping me safe...

Kaden: Oh, that? It was no problem at all. In fact, you've reminded me that I was meaning to thank you, too.

Setsuna: Why would you need to thank me?

Kaden: Obviously because you've been so great at bringing down the animals we hunt! I don't know anyone as accurate as you are with that bow and arrow. Without you, it would have been a lot harder to bring in so much food!

Setsuna: Oh. That makes sense... I'm glad that I've made you happy.

Kaden: Here I thought I'd have to pay you back for being so helpful, but... It sounds like we're equal, huh?

Setsuna: Yeah... We've made it really easy for each other. How nice...

Kaden: Since we're even, would you like to keep hunting with me? It seems like we make really great hunting partners!

Setsuna: Hunting partners... I like the sound of that. Where did you hear it?

Kaden: Nowhere! I just thought of it this minute! I'm pretty great at coming up with names.

Setsuna: Oh, look... There's some kind of rare bird flying over there...

Kaden: Hey! You're ignoring me again!! Bah, forget it. I can't get mad at a rare-bird sighting. Setsuna, I'm looking forward to more hunting trips with you in the future! I'm counting on your archery skills!

Setsuna: OK... And I'm counting on you to keep me out of traps.

Setsuna: Kaden... I appreciate you inviting me along on these hunts, but you seem a little...off today. Is something the matter?

Kaden: Hmmm? Oh no, nothing at all! I'm fine. Must be your imagination...

Setsuna: It's not my imagination... Normally you're such a chatterbox, I can hardly hear myself daydream...

Kaden: Are...are you saying I'm loud and annoying?

Setsuna: That's one way of putting it...

Kaden: Ouch! That hurts. But I suppose I do tend to go on and on...

Setsuna: And on.

Kaden: Anyway, I suppose you're right—I'm being very quiet today because I'm so nervous. I have something important that I want to talk to you about.

Setsuna: Oh? OK...

Kaden: I...I think we're compatible as more than just hunting partners. As we've gone on more and more hunts, I've felt this feeling... It's a kind of joy I've never felt before, and it's only when we're together. We both love to relax, and it seems like we really just click...

Setsuna: True... I think you're completely right.

Kaden: That's great! I'm so happy you agree. Does that mean...you'd like to be together with me? I've never met someone I like being with as much as you.

Setsuna: Yes, Kaden... I want to be by your side...

Kaden: And...you aren't just saying that because you like not getting caught in traps, right? I mean, that would make sense and I wouldn't judge you, but...

Setsuna: No, I'm saying it because I really love you...

Kaden: Oh, good! Then I promise to always be by your side, Setsuna!

Setsuna: I'm so happy, Kaden...
