Annette: Phew... I guess taking them all up in one go was a bad idea...
Linhardt: Annette? Are you OK with all
those boxes?
Annette: Linhardt! Hi! I'm so glad
you're here!
I don't know if I'll be able to handle
all these...
I thought I may as well get it over
with, so I decided to carry them all at
once. Big mistake.
Linhardt: Smart thinking. "Do it all at
once!" That's what they say, right?
Work smart, not hard.
I think you've got it from here, so
I'm off to take a nap. Good luck.
Annette: But maybe you could help!
Linhardt: Nope. Gone.
Annette: Gah. It's fine. It is fine.
Just a little further to my quarters.
I've got this.
I'll just... Just... Gaaah!
Huh? They didn't fall...
Linhardt: That was almost pretty bad.
Annette: Linhardt! I thought you had an
important nap to get to.
Linhardt: I'd call it insomnia, but I
suppose it was really just a guilty
conscience. I came to see if you needed
help.
And sure enough, here you are, about to
tip all the boxes on the floor.
Annette: Thanks. Though it may have
been best if you had just chipped in
from the start...
Linhardt: Huh? But it was your job. Why
would I step in? You clearly had things
handled.
Annette: Then why help me at all?
Linhardt: If the boxes had fallen just
now, everyone would have had to help
tidy them up anyway.
If anything broke, more boxes would
need to be carried...
And if all of that came to pass, then
there'd be noise and more noise and no
chance of my taking a nap.
Annette: Huh. But if you had helped me
from the start, there would have been
no danger of anything being dropped at
all.
Linhardt: Correct. But there was no
danger yet, and so there was no need
for my help. So I left you to it.
Try carrying one box at a time instead
of straining to do it all at once. Work
smart, not hard, as they say.
All right, well, I think you've got it
from here, so I'm off. Good luck.
Annette: After all that, he's not going
to help me.

Annette: Linhardt, wake up! The lecture's over. (Pre-TS) The war meeting's over. (Post-TS)
Linhardt: Mm? Mmm, huh? What, is it morning already?
Annette: Morning is long gone.
I said the lecture's finished. (Pre-TS)
I said the war meeting's finished.
(Post-TS)
Linhardt: If that's the case, I suppose
I can sleep a bit longer...
Annette: No. You. Can. Not. Get up this
instant!
Linhardt: Calm down... Calm down.
I was having a wonderful dream...
Annette: Oh? What were you dreaming
about?
Linhardt: I was dreaming about having
the best afternoon nap of my life, and
the dream I was having in the dream was
amazing...
Annette: I thought as much.
I have to ask. I'm pretty sure you
could do anything you put your mind to,
so why do you spend so much of your
life sleeping?
Linhardt: I sleep because I'm tired.
What other reason would I have?
Annette: No one can be that tired all
the time.
Linhardt: Well, not all the time, no.
Most nights, I'm quite wide awake.
Sometimes I get distracted and forget
to sleep. Usually, I sleep two days
for every three I'm awake.
Annette: Are you kidding me?
No one sleeps for two days. That's
beyond lazy. That's... There's not even
a word for that!
Linhardt: I can't help it that my sleep
schedule fails to line up with everyone
else's.
After I did you the favor of waking
you up, you could at least take this
seriously.
Annette: Look, putting in effort is how
you grow. You know, as a person and
stuff.
If you keep this up, you're going to
end up just another hopeless dropout.
Everyone else is working really hard
to end the war. Are you really OK with
coasting like this?
Linhardt: I'll be fine, Annette. I'll
be just...fine...
Anyway, I'm pretty beat. Talk again
soon.
Annette: Linhardt! I wasn't finished
talking!

Annette: Ahh, there's nothing like a morning stroll to take in the fresh air! Hm? In the thicket there. Is that...a human foot? Eeek! It moved! Someone, help!
Linhardt: Sorry, Annette...I was really
out.
Annette: Hey! You shouldn't surprise
people like that! I thought you were an
undead corpse...
Why are you sleeping out here anyway?
We're in the middle of a war! Doesn't
that seem dangerous?
Linhardt: Middle of a war or no, you'll
not defeat the master of dreams. He's a
fiercely strong enemy.
Annette: Stop joking around! What are
you even talking about?
Linhardt: No joking, I assure you. He
is quite unstoppable. Or perhaps you
know his weakness?
Annette: You really never change, do
you?
You sleep just as much as ever... Do
you even remember what I told you?
Linhardt: You told me something? When?
Annette: Of course you don't. I told
you that putting in effort...
Linhardt: "...is how you grow." Is that
the one?
Annette: So...you do remember?
Linhardt: Should I not have remembered?
Annette: No! Ugh. It's just...you should put your talents to use elsewhere, that's all.
Linhardt: Hmm... Have you been speaking
to Hubert?
The truth is I place effort in what
brings me joy. I'm happiest that way.
Annette: No, that's not... OK, let me
put it this way instead.
Working hard for other people helps
you grow as a person.
Do you not get the urge to work hard
for other people, like when you helped
me before?
Linhardt: Not as such. Why would I go
through that effort? For what gain?
Annette: Um, for the gain I
mentioned...that it helps you grow as a
person.
Linhardt: Oh, I see. Well then,
continue working hard for my sake. For
example, waking me up today.
And I suppose I will try to do a
little bit more for you too.
I find working for others to be
annoying, yet I wish to make an
exception for you. I hope that's all
right...
Annette: Just for me?
Linhardt: Indeed. You're the only
person I'd bother helping. I could wear
myself out helping you. Forever, maybe.
Annette: What about it?
Linhardt: I'll be there for you, and you can be there for me.
Annette: Oh! What do you mean by that?!
Linhardt: What?
Annette: If we're doing our best for
each other and all, then that's a bit
like...just kind of like...like a
marriage!
Linhardt: Huh. You know, I feel as if
you might be able to wake me up every
morning. No small feat, that.
Annette: Hmph! As though I would marry
a man who can't even get up in the
morning!
