C Support

Effie: Silas...can I ask you a question?

Silas: Sure, Effie. What is it?

Effie: Why are you fighting in this army?

Silas: What do you mean?

Effie: Well, I mean, I'm here because I'm sworn to protect Lady Elise. I owe her everything—and she's my best friend—so it's a natural arrangement. But you're not anyone's retainer. What's in it for you?

Silas: I see. So, you think I'm some kind of mercenary?

Effie: No, that's not it. I guess I'd just struggle with motivation if it weren't for Lady Elise. And yet you're so dedicated...and one of our strongest fighters. So, if you're not just in it for yourself, why are you here?

Silas: Well, Effie, I'm really no different than you. I'm here to protect Avatar. We have a long, complicated history, but I would do anything to protect him/her. That's all there is to it!

Effie: I don't think that's true at all.

Silas: What?! How can you say that?

Effie: The part about you being no different than me. That's just not true!

Silas: Well, I'm not going to stand here and argue with you. But it seems rather obvious to me...

Effie: I'm sorry—I'm probably overreacting. I guess I'm just a bit sensitive. Just hold off on comparing the two of us until you get to know me better, OK?

Silas: Fair enough, Effie.

B Support

Silas: Effie, do you have a moment?

Effie: Yes, what is it, Silas?

Silas: About the other day... I've been giving it some thought, and I really do think we're similar. But judging by your reaction...something about me bothers you. Why were you so adamant about the two of us being different?

Effie: I'm not sure. That's just how I feel.

Silas: Well, that's vague. I'm just as dedicated as you. Why can't you see it?

Effie: Sure, if you say so.

Silas: All right. Pay close attention during our next battle. I'll show you what I mean.

Effie: Don't bother.

Silas: Yeesh, what's wrong with you?

Effie: Sorry, but I don't have time to watch your showboating on the battlefield. I'll be too busy protecting Lady Elise!

Silas: So you can't even be bothered to glance in my direction. I get it.

Effie: Fine. I'll try to take a look. IF AND ONLY IF LADY ELISE IS COMPLETELY SAFE! You got that?

Silas: Yes, yes, that's all I'm asking for.

A Support

Effie: Silas. I watched you carefully in that last battle. And now I can demonstrate precisely how we are different.

Silas: All right. Let's hear it.

Effie: Take a look here, under my armor.

Silas: Gods!

Effie: Now look at this scar.

Silas: Oh, Effie. I had no idea you had suffered such grievous wounds.

Effie: To protect someone is to sacrifice your own flesh and blood. My dedication to Elise is total. So these don't even bother me. You don't appear to have suffered the same types of wounds. You're very skilled in battle—you have immense talent. But I have to train around the clock just to stay alive out there.

Silas: Your point is taken. And I do not wish to make this a competition. But please understand that I too have suffered in battle. Not everything comes quite so easily to me. I think the most important thing is that we both strive to protect above all else.

Effie: Yes...after seeing your defense of Lord/Lady Avatar, I believe you.

Silas: Thank you, Effie. It is gratifying to hear those words. Perhaps we can make better use of our individual strengths in the next battle? For example, I could take a forward position, ahead of you and Lady Elise. And Avatar, of course. That way, I can protect all of you.

Effie: I'm sorry, Silas, but that doesn't work for me. I need to be able to see up front.

Silas: Yes, I suppose your style is suited to an aggressive position...

Effie: More importantly...I won't get any stronger if I just stand behind you. I need to be mixing it up if I want to improve my skills. Surely you understand.

Silas: Of course. Let's simply make a pact to cooperate whenever possible. In defense of the ones we care about, of course.

Effie: Of course. Thank you, Silas.

S Support

Silas: Effie. Thanks for coming.

Effie: Hello, Silas. What's going on?

Silas: Well...I just wanted to say thank you. You've inspired me to work harder. The way you train...the way you lay your body on the line for Elise... I'm rededicating myself to the total protection of Avatar.

Effie: Aw, Silas. Don't thank me. All I did was act kind of cranky. Lord/Lady Avatar is lucky to have you on his/her side.

Silas: Well, I certainly hope so. Ahem. There's one other thing...

Effie: Well, go on! I have a tough workout scheduled for this afternoon.

Silas: I wanted to tell you that Avatar is no longer the only person I'd die to protect.

Effie: Oh? That's a surprise. Who is it?

Silas: It's you, Effie. I'd stand alone in front of a great army to ensure your safety.

Effie: Uh...that sounds like a problem...

Silas: What?! Why?

Effie: Like I said before. I can't have anyone standing in front of me during battle!

Silas: Oh. Whew. Of course. But, uh, that's not exactly what I meant. All right, I'm just going to put it out there. Ahem. Effie. Will you marry me?

Effie: Oh! I see what you meant. Let me think about this for a second... Sure, I'll marry you.

Silas: Um...that's great... But you seem awfully casual about all this...

Effie: Well, I'm a little surprised, I suppose, but it makes a lot of sense. You're a good person. You're strong and loyal. I've enjoyed getting to know you. As long as it won't interfere with my duties to Lady Elise, I'll happily marry you, Silas!

Silas: I understand. I promise to protect you and, by proxy, Lady Elise. May we all have a long and happy future together!

Effie: Thank you, Silas! I'd give my life to protect you as well. Assuming I'm not already busy protecting Lady Elise, of course...
