Three Houses Supports/Dedue Sylvain
C Support
Sylvain: Dedue, hey. Oh! I'm sorry. I hope I'm not bothering you. Looks like you're pretty deep in thought.
Dedue: Does it?
Sylvain: I just wanted to stop by and
ask... It was your turn to cook last
night, yeah?
Dedue: Uh, yes.
Sylvain: Well, it was great. I was
wondering if you could give me some
tips. You know, teach me how to cook.
I hear a girl loves a man who can
cook.
Dedue: Sylvain.
Sylvain: Yeah?
Dedue: You are from Faerghus. You must
understand how it appears for you to
spend time with one from Duscur.
To be near me is to invite tedious
misunderstanding.
Sylvain: Oh, please. I don't care who
misunderstands what about me. I talk to
who I want.
Besides, I believe the Duscur people
are innocent.
Dedue: You do?
Sylvain: Faerghus and Duscur have been
friendly since, heck, forever.
So why would our old friends from
Duscur just up and assassinate our
king? It doesn't make sense.
Sure, there are probably folks from
Duscur who don't like Faerghus.
But do I think there's enough of 'em
to mount an attack and slaughter the
king and his whole company of elite
guards?
Dedue: It is difficult to believe,
considering the discrepancy in skill
and number.
Sylvain: Right? At most, I can see a
misguided group of people from Duscur
conspiring with someone else who had
plans to dethrone the king.
Maybe they were even lured into
participating and used as scapegoats.
Regardless, it doesn't concern you or
the rest of your people. A person can't
be judged by the worst of their kind...
Or where would any of us be?
Besides, people like to talk about me
anyway. So let them talk.
Dedue: ...
Sylvain: OK... You're making a weird
face. What did I say?
Dedue: I have misjudged you. I was
under the impression you only cared
about women.
Sylvain: Heh heh... Well, I'm glad I've
cleared up that misunderstanding. But
really, there's no way I'm the only
person who figured all that out.
There must be people who think like me
in Fhirdiad, including His Highness.
Dedue: Agreed.
But whatever the truth, we are still
perceived as traitorous assassins.
Once a misunderstanding takes hold, it
isn't easy to clear the air, not
without solid evidence of the truth.
Sylvain: But even if we found evidence
that your people are innocent, those
negative sentiments wouldn't disappear
overnight.
The only thing that can change that is
time and effort. Depressing, isn't it?
Dedue: Time and effort. Yes, I believe
you're right.
Sylvain: Man, that got serious.
Shouldn't we lighten things up with a
nice cooking lesson?
Dedue: Very well.

Sylvain: Ah, this is delicious. I can't believe I made it!
Dedue: Yes, you do have some talent.
...
Sylvain: What's the matter? Have I got
something on my face?
Dedue: No, Sylvain. Recently I've heard
rumors about you.
Sylvain: Oh yeah? Which ones?
Is it that I'm terrible to girls? Or
the rumor where I bring terrible
misfortune to the girls I date? I
don't, by the way. In case you're about
to ask.
Oh! I also heard about how I'm total
trash and everyone should avoid me.
That might be my favorite.
Dedue: Well, you don't lack for
self-awareness.
Sylvain: The way I figure it, if I
can't be respected, I can at least be
well-informed.
Dedue: You are being described as
indefensibly worthless.
Sylvain: Indefensibly? Heh, that's a
bit harsh.
Dedue: I already knew your reputation
concerning women. But these new rumors
deprive you of all redemption.
I did try to correct them. But I doubt
I was believed.
Sylvain: Well, thank you all the same.
Listen. You don't need to worry what
people think about me. As you well
know, it's not easy to correct
misunderstandings or change people's
minds.
And if I'm going to behave so badly,
it seems misunderstandings are
inevitable.
Dedue: I could not be silent.
You saw me as a person, rather than
merely as someone from Duscur.
I want you to be seen as a person too.
Sylvain: I appreciate that, Dedue. You
think the world will ever see us that
way?
Dedue: Maybe.
Sylvain: I can't tell if you're joking
or not. But I like it.
Dedue: Then we will get along.
