[003E - Audio/Video] - Report #2

[heartofarapier]

[Someone's still not wearing her school uniform. Not as an insult. Likely a need for individuality.

Fingers at the bottom of her chin, she looks thoughtful. And perhaps minutely concerned.]

For as much as I seemed to think these grounds were different and foreign to Magvel, I'm coming to find some... odd similarities. The unease in the town, the oppression of innocent people, and the talks of fanciful social galas.

In some ways, it's almost as if I have not left Renais at all.

[With a slight frown, she continues.]

While I likely shouldn't be concerned, Prince Innes' silence is a little troubling, as well. But I may be thinking too much of it.

I'd like to take the opportunity to view the grounds with less of an investigative gaze and a more appreciative one. What do you all do when you need to distract yourselves?

[Prince Innes...? N-no, the moment he really talked about any concern here, he would worry Eirika. He really didn't want that for some reason. Unless if she mentioned it, Connor would assume the guy was okay. He kept saying how his bite was as big as his bark so. Yeah. He looked at what else she said, admittedly curiously. He really put some thought into this.]

I have found that the stadium is a place I could go for some archery practice...It has been of some help to me as a valuable resource.

[heartofarapier]

[She blinks.]

Archery practise? That's right. You use a bow, too. Are you any good with it?

video

[mohawk_tomahawk]

It is a tool of my people's trade. They had taught me to be able to use it. It has seen me through both for hunting and for battle.

[Fancy speak for, "hell yeah I am".]

[heartofarapier]

[She reads that loud and clear. He's very confident.]

Oh...

[Eirika feels sheepish. He's more worldly than her. It's kind of humiliating, but to be expected.]

I don't know how to use a bow at all. Or much of anything other than my rapier. I'm not sure I'd get much use out of the stadium... But I wouldn't mind watching you with your bow.

[mohawk_tomahawk]

[No. No. Don't do that. Don't give him that look.]

Perhaps...then I could be able to teach you, if you would like.

[Why stand and watch when you could learn, he thought.]

[heartofarapier]

...

[His offer surprises her, and she knows it shows. She even sits a little straighter. Eirika knows she's not exactly 'ladylike,' so there's no point in even asking.]

That sounds troublesome to you, Connor.

[There. That's modest enough.]

video

[mohawk_tomahawk]

[WHY DO YOU ALWAYS SAY THAT...Connor shook his head. Does he really have to repeat it? How does Eirika view herself to think people are troubled by her?]

It is most certainly not.

I am an honest man. I would tell you if something troubled me. This certainly would not.

[oceanshaper]

Go for a swim, of course. Do you like to go in the water... ?

[Like, a dip in the hot springs every once and a while?]

[heartofarapier]

[Oh. It's... you.]

I do like to bathe, if that counts...

[Is she blushing? Yes. She's blushing.]

[sorry this was video]

[oceanshaper]

It counts~

How are you feeling? Better now that you have your original body back?

[perma video~]

[heartofarapier]

[This is still very embarrassing, Kyogre. You were the first boy she saw naked, okay. Aside from... herself, anyway.]

A-ah...
Is it so obvious? I suppose I don't look too different.

[oceanshaper]

Mmhm, I could tell right away. You're just as pretty as you were handsome as a guy.

[heartofarapier]

[That is a really long pause. She doesn't even know how to immediately respond to that.]

Thank you. I have a twin brother, who I resembled then. I'll pass your compliments onto him. Whenever I've the opportunity.

[cruelcurse]

I didn't do anything to the Prince, I promise! No hexes, no nothing; we already squared that away, so I'm not supposed to~

[ He looks only a little bummed out over that. But not really, because he continues to smile. ]

Why, do you need something from him?

[video]

[heartofarapier]

[She blinks.]

Oh! You are Prince Innes' living companion?

[He seems very excitable. And did he just say hexes?]

[video]

[cruelcurse]

Uh-huh, that's me~ Except I don't really go to my dorm very often, so I wouldn't notice whether or not he's missing, or what he's up to. [ He shrugs. ]

[video]

[heartofarapier]

He didn't tell me anything about you. In fact, he didn't say much at all. I hope he's not giving you too much trouble? Prince Innes can sometimes be a bit of a handful.

[video]

[cruelcurse]

No, not really. We're definitely getting along, hee hee! We even made an agreement with each other and everything, and I'm still holding up my end of the deal without giving in. And he's being agreeable too, 'cause if he wasn't, I probably wouldn't be talking to you right now. Maybe I'd be dead~

[video]

[heartofarapier]

......

[She blinks.]

Are we talking about the same Prince of Frelia? I think you're the first person to ever describe him as 'agreeable.' You said something about hexes before. Did you possibly cast a spell on him?

[superior_archer]

I'm just dealing with nonsense. One particular annoyance that won't go away.

[heartofarapier]

[Does she look a little relieved? She looks a little relieved?

And she smiles.]

Henry?

[superior_archer]

That would be it.

[heartofarapier]

I heard from him you two made an agreement. He said you were an agreeable person and I had to ask him if was actually talking about you.

[superior_archer]

We came to an agreement. I didn't want blood on the walls.

[heartofarapier]

I'm very happy to hear you are finally getting along with him.

[Okay. This is optimism.]
