Base conversations

Robert and Leiden 1

Leiden:
Robert, it's time for the war council.

Robert:
Huh, is that so? ...Oh right, I think I heard about that...

Leiden:
Sir Jagen told us yesterday. Have you forgotten already?

Robert:
Eh, well, that's strange... I didn't intend to.

Leiden:
You're such an airhead, you know?

Robert:
R-really?

Leiden:
Misbuttoning your clothes, wearing two right gloves... How do you plan to tell me otherwise?

Robert:
Did that sort of thing happen...?

Leiden:
Yes. I lent you a left glove because you had two right ones. Then, you lost that too....

Robert:
Ohh! I remember now.

Leiden:
Hmm? The war council? Or the left glove?

Robert:
Sir Jagen told me he had that glove, so he asked me to go and collect it during the war council.

Leiden:
... I'm fairly sure he had a different set of gloves in mind.

Robert and Leiden 2

Robert:
Leiden, don't just throw away everything you own.

Leiden:
...? What are you talking about?

Robert:
You've a habit of throwing away anything you don't need... They once got really mad at you when you threw an old, dirty book away. "How dare you! It was a precious textbook!!" they said.

Leiden:
Yeah... Don't even remind me. I got in some real trouble that time. But that happened all the way back home. I'm just organizing my things now. Did I throw away something I shouldn't have?

Robert:
...Isn't this book Sir Jagen's? I remember borrowing it.

Leiden:
...! True... ...That was a close one.

Robert:
Your detachment from material things is one of your good points, but you're just a step away from getting another good scolding.

Leiden:
Indeed. I'd bet... Sir Jagen would be frightening if angered...

Robert:
Oh, Sir Jagen!

Leiden:
...!!!

Robert:
...Oops, wrong person.

Leiden:
You craven...!

Robert and Leiden 3

Leiden:
Robert? Weren't you supposed to get back by nightfall?

Robert:
I found a shortcut. That's why I came back early.

Leiden:
You never get lost anywhere... You should share some of that sense of direction with Sir/Dame Chris.

Robert:
Well, everyone has their strengths and weaknesses. But I think Sir/Dame Chris'll survive no matter where he/she goes.

Leiden:
Haha, maybe.

Robert:
Meanwhile, if you weren't a knight, you'd be some dull fellow leading a gray life somewhere...

Leiden:
Hey, you're going too far. And you--if you weren't a knight... Nah, you'd probably manage, oddly enough.

Robert:
What was that?

Leiden:
Well... Doesn't matter. Even if this war is over, it'll take time for the dust to settle.

Robert:
We'll have a lot of work to do... right?

Leiden:
Yeah. In any case, let's focus on the task at hand. Shall we train together?

Robert:
It would be a pleasure.
