Chrom:
Gaius, do you have a moment?

Gaius:
What's up, Blue?

Chrom:
...Blue? Er, right. Well, you must have traveled a lot in your old line of work, yes?

Gaius:
Sure did! Us thieves tend to outstay our welcome in a hurry.

Chrom:
The reason I ask is that I've had little chance to see the world properly. I've journeyed on diplomatic business, but that's pretty much it. And frankly, one majestic court looks very much like another. I've often wondered what it would be like to roam the world free of royal burdens.

Gaius:
Ha! You royals up in your pointy towers really don't have a clue! You think us commoners are free to just spend our days sauntering along! Think we pick daisies and gaze at tourist attractions and eat bonbons all day!

Chrom:
Look, that's not what I was implying at all. ...And I think you know it.

Gaius:
So what's the problem? Tired of silk pants and the undying adoration of the masses?

Chrom:
I try to appreciate my situation, but being a royal can be incredibly...stifling. It's a comfortable prison, true, but a prison nonetheless.

Gaius:
Sounds like a serious case of not being able to count your blessings.

Chrom:
It's true—I'm never hungry, I've a hot bath and a warm bed, people leap to my aid... Perhaps you're right. What right have I to complain of such a life?

Gaius:
Bingo.

B Support

Gaius:
Heya, Blue.

Chrom:
You know, I really wish you wouldn't call me... Never mind. What can I do for you, Gaius?

Gaius:
You got plans for the evening? After supper, I mean?

Chrom:
I have to inspect the armory and make sure we're ready for the next battle.

Gaius:
Boooooor-ing. What about tomorrow?

Chrom:
Tomorrow I meet with the war council to discuss strategy and tactics.

Gaius:
Man! It's all work and no play for our fair leader, isn't it?

Chrom:
...What exactly did you want, Gaius? If it's important, I'll carve out some time.

Gaius:
Oh, it's not so important. ...Or maybe it IS!

Chrom:
Would you please get to the point?

Gaius:
Look, I got to thinking about what you said. You know, about not having freedom?

Chrom:
Yes?

Gaius:
Well, I thought I'd give you a taste of what it's like to be footloose and fancy-free!

Chrom:
How do you propose to do that? I don't have time for a 'round-the-world tour.

Gaius:
A single evening is all it'll take! ...You just tell me when you're ready.

A Support

Gaius:
Finished your preparations? Ready to sample life outside the gilded cage?

Chrom:
Preparations? I wasn't aware that—

Gaius:
Aw, come on! You want to dress up a bit, don't you? ...I mean, I would.

Chrom:
Look, I don't know what you're talking about. Where are we going anyway? How am I supposed to prepare when I have no idea what's going on?

Gaius:
Seriously, Blue?! Gods, if you royals aren't the most coddled set of... Look, we're going out to have fun. You know about fun, right? So try to wear something that doesn't look like it was stolen from a corpse.

Chrom:
Hey, I have a very keen fashion sense, thank you very much!

Gaius:
...Well, I suppose those clothes'll have to do, then. Come on, Blue. Quit your grumblin'. I'll explain on the way.

Chrom:
B-but, wait!

Gaius:
Ha ha! So... What'd you think?

Chrom:
It was...interesting.

Gaius:
Yeah, but was it FUN?!

Chrom:
Well, I suppose so. I'd never seen a man juggle flaming hams before... And when those acrobats got into a knife fight...that was really something.

Gaius:
I know, you're overwhelmed. It's a lot to take in. Still, we did what we set out to do.

Chrom:
And what was that, exactly?

Gaius:
To show you a slice of the real world!

Chrom:
Ah, yes.

Gaius:
So then? Still think you're trapped in a prison made of diamonds and baby tears? Today you wanted to experience something new, and that's exactly what we did! No one tried to stop you. No one asked for your autograph. Nothing stood in the way except your own royal reserve. King or traveling minstrel, the world is as narrow or wide as you make it.

Chrom:
You're saying it's not duty that holds me back...but self-pity? Gods... I've been such a self-indulgent arse...

Gaius:
Aw, don't be too hard on yourself, Blue. Those silk-clad shoulders carry a heavier burden than I'd be willing to bear. Just remember—attitude and outlook go a long way toward making your world.

Chrom:
And you took me to that den of iniquity just to teach me that lesson?

Gaius:
Naw. I like going there, but I can't afford it unless some sap foots the bill. But you be sure to let me know when you want to go again, all right?

Chrom:
...Maybe later.
