Lissa
*Siiiiiiiiigh*

Chrom
Well, that was a big one.

Lissa
Oh! Chrom!

Chrom
Something on your mind? Or are you just sighing for the sheer joy of it?

Lissa
Well, it's just... Do I... Do I seem like a princess to you?

Chrom
Er, how's that?

Lissa
I'm asking if I seem like a princess!

Chrom
If you aren't, you owe us some rent for your room in the castle...

Lissa
Oh, hardy har! That's not what I mean and you know it. I'm asking if you think I live up to my station.

Chrom
What brought this on?

Lissa
When I compare myself to you and Emmeryn, I...I feel like dead weight.

Chrom
What a stupid thing to say.

Lissa
Hey!

Chrom
Well? It's the truth. You're fine just how you are, Lissa. Give yourself a little credit. I'll see you later.

Lissa
What? Hey! Don't give me a lazy answer and then run away! I hope you trip and break your nose, jerkface! ...Okay, that last bit may not have been the most princess-like.

Lissa
All right. The coast is clear.

Chrom
Lissa?

Lissa
Ack! B-brother! Hey there! How are...things...with the war?

Chrom
Where are you going?

Lissa
Oh, the weather's just SO lovely, so I thought I'd take a little stroll and—

Chrom
It's raining.

Lissa
IS IT? Oh, fiddle dee dee! It was sunny just a moment—

Chrom
It's been raining for three days.

Lissa
Urk...

Chrom
All right, fess up: Where do you keep running off to lately?

Lissa
Me? Run off? Ha ha! You're crazy, Chrom. Stop being crazy.

Chrom
Robin has also been asking about you. ...About how you knew so much regarding the enemy's formation in that last battle. Please don't tell me you've been scouting all by yourself, Lissa.

Lissa
...So it'd be okay if I didn't tell you?

Chrom
You fool! What would you have done if they'd caught you?!

Lissa
I... I didn't... I don't know! I just knew I had to do something to help! It's my duty as princess to fight and—

Chrom
And what?! To become a high-ranking hostage?! To be tortured for information?! And gods, are you REALLY still on about this princess stuff?!

Lissa
You wouldn't understand! You don't know what it's like to be your and Emmeryn's little sister!

Chrom
...Look. If you want a mission so badly, I'll give you one: Go ask everyone in camp how you can be a better princess.

Lissa
What?

Chrom
It doesn't have to be today, but do it. ...And yes, that's an order.

Lissa
Oh, for the... All right. Fine...

Chrom
How goes the mission I gave you, Lissa?

Lissa
It's over. I talked to everyone. I asked them all how I could be a better princess, just like you asked.

Chrom
And what did they say?

Lissa
A dozen different things! Some guy said I should be more calm and stop throwing tantrums. Another person said I should stop being so picky about what I eat, which was weird. Oh, and a certain someone told me to stick my pinky out when I drink tea. Ugh!

Chrom
And the most common response?

Lissa
What do you mean?

Chrom
Surely some people had the same advice, right? What did you hear the most?

Lissa
Um... Well, there were a whole lot of people who said "nothing."

Chrom
So there you have it.

Lissa
There I have what?

Chrom
I told you you're fine just as you are, didn't I? And the people agree!

Lissa
Yeah, but... I still don't feel like I'm contributing anything.

Chrom
When you approached people, how did they react? And I mean before you said anything. I'd bet good coin they all smiled at you. ...Right?

Lissa
What? No, they... Hmm... Yeah, I guess they did.

Chrom
You make people happy, Lissa. You motivate and inspire them just by your presence. I might instill confidence, but I don't make them happy. And neither would Emmeryn.

Lissa
You think so?

Chrom
I KNOW so. And believe me, that talent is more useful than you'd think. Everyone else knows it, too. That's why they told you not to change a thing. So if you won't trust my opinion, how about theirs? You're their princess, after all.

Lissa
N-no, I trust them. I do, but...

Chrom
Then stop worrying! You're going to be a princess all your life. That's plenty of time to figure it out. Just be yourself and the rest will come naturally.

Lissa
...Huh. That actually makes sense. Thanks, Chrom.
