[spiria]

this might sound silly but could i have a hug?

[ She's not really directing this at anybody in particular. She just found out parts of her family are no longer here and she's ... not handling it too well. She'll take a hug from anyone willing to give one. ]

[spiria]

And ... A-And it all just ... happened! All at once! Well, maybe not really all at once, but ... at around the same time.

I know that it happens ... it just sucks that it happened like this.

action;

[beauchevalier]

This place doesn't care who stays and goes, I'm sure you're aware of that.

action;

[spiria]

I know. It could happen to anybody. It could happen to you, or me, and we would have no say in the matter at all.

And we would forget this place even existed, and forget all of the people we had come to know and love.

I've been here for over a year and a half, now ... There's just so much I don't want to lose ...

action;

[beauchevalier]

It's better not to grow attached to the people in this world. Otherwise, you'll allow that attachment to rule over your life here.

action;

[spiria]

You would think that would be easy, right?

... Sometimes, I wish I could be that way. To go through life, not making any emotional attachments to people ... to not care if someone leaves my life.

I'm not that kind of person, though. I genuinely love the people I've met here. I don't want to lose them.

action;

[beauchevalier]

I'm afraid you'll come to realize that I'm on the exact opposite scale in that regard. Though that seems to be the case with many of our discussions.

action;

[spiria]

We're very different people, yeah ...

action;

[beauchevalier]

That's not so terrible, is it?

action;

[spiria]

Not really. If everyone were the exact same person, we'd all be so bored of each other.

action;

[beauchevalier]

[He laughs.]

Yes, that's very true.

action;

[spiria]

[ She does manage a small smile at that. ]

I'm glad we met, Angelo. Even if someday, I might leave. Or you might. Even if we don't remember each other. I'm glad that we've had the chance to become friends.

action;

[beauchevalier]

[He might be blushing a small bit at Kohaku's words, though he's trying not to show it.]

Erm yes, I'm glad we met too. I don't think I've ever met a girl like you back home.

action;

[spiria]

I guess I am one of a kind.

... What are the girls like back home for you?

action;

[beauchevalier]

Rather needy and easy to get favors out of, if you understand what I mean. Not every girl is that way however, namely the Princess, Jessica, and Red.

action;

[spiria]

So then there are many different kinds of girls back in your world.

action;

[beauchevalier]

Yes and no. Most are quite easy to get into the bedroom or seduce.

action;

[spiria]

Uh ... huh.

[ Not impressed, bro. Not impressed. ]

action;

[beauchevalier]

But considering I'm the most attractive man in all of the world, who would say no to this charming face?

[Inflated ego is a go? Yup, sure is.]

action;

[spiria]

I would. I'm taken and loyal.

[ This balloon represents your ego. Kohaku is now taking a pin to it. ]

action;

[beauchevalier]

I meant besides you.

[Way to pop his ego, Kohaku.]

action;

[spiria]

Well, you are quite attractive, I'll give you that. But I can imagine there are other girls out there in my position, or in similar positions.

[ She's good at that. :D ]

action;

[beauchevalier]

Well I'm glad you think I'm very attractive.

[Even if you did break his ego.]

action;

[spiria]

Well, you are.

[ Oh poor baaaaaby. Here, let me put your broken ego back together. With scotch tape. ]

action;

[beauchevalier]

Does that mean I could get a kiss?

[Now he's just teasing.]

action;

[spiria]

Sure! On the cheek.

[ Two can play at that game. ]
