Base conversations

Abel and Est 1

Est:
Abel!

Abel:
Est, you haven't been in an actual battle for a while. Try not to overdo it.

Est:
I told you I'm alright! Sure, I'm not at my peak, but my skill as a former Whitewing hasn't faded just yet. But nevermind me, Abel, I don't want you to get hurt, either. If you'd like, I could let you ride my pegasus. That way, you wouldn't get a scratch on you.

Abel:
You said it. I used to be an Altean knight, you know. They called me "Abel the Black Panther." No mere soldier could possibly hope to defeat me. Hmm... If I were to ride with you though, I'd be able to protect you...

Est:
Eh? ...Oh dear. Sorry, Abel. I, um, don't think that he wants you to ride him.

Abel:
I-I see. I knew it; so he really does hate me... Even back home, he'd go out of his way to savage me each time I tried to touch him.

Est:
You ending up getting kicked all the time too... Heehee, you were so certain that you'd need to get along with him in order to be family with me.

Abel:
And in the end, I couldn't even pat his head...

Abel and Est 2

Est:
Sigh...

Abel:
What's wrong, Est? Why the long face?

Est:
Oh... Abel. No, it's nothing. I was just thinking about stuff.

Abel:
...I see. That's okay then.

Est:
Say, Abel... Once this war is over, will things--will we really be able to go back to how we used to be?

Abel:
Of course. In fact, I'm sure we'll be happier than before. We'll expand the shop, have children...

Est:
Oh... yeah. Yeah, that's right. Of course.

Abel:
Est...? Are you really alright? That isn't the smile I'm accustomed to. Are you forcing yourself, Est?

Est:
Ahaha, 'c-course not. But anyway, Abel. What do you think we should name our child?

Abel:
Ah, yes. Let's see...

Abel and Est 3

Est:
Sigh... What should... I do...?

Abel:
Est, my love! So you were here.

Est:
Abel, what is it? You look so flustered.

Abel:
I heard from Prince Marth. You've been terribly worried about something, haven't you? What is it, dear? If there's something the matter, tell me.

Est:
...Say, Abel. Why did you fall in love with me?

Abel:
T-that's uh... rather sudden.

Est:
Please, Abel. I must know.

Abel:
Good grief... It was so... natural, I never gave it a second thought.

Est:
...

Abel:
Ah, are you crying!? I'm sorry, I'll answer properly this time! Err...

Est:
Abel, thank you. It's okay.

Abel:
Eh?

Est:
That... was more than enough. I get it. Hey, scoot closer. Now... Just for now, hold me tightly in your arms.

Abel:
Est... We'll always be together... So, don't cry anymore. It hurts me... to see you cry. The thought of you all alone, with no one to turn to... I'm afraid to leave your side... Afraid to depart for battle.

Est:
...I'm sorry. Teehee, I'm so silly. I guess all this fighting's been taking its toll on me. Sorry, Abel. I'm okay now. But... Let us stay like this, just a little longer...

Abel:
Oh, Est...
