No thank you, I have no interest in a child's playthings.

[ but thanks....for offering??? ]

Why did someone see fit to gift you a doll?

[underwhelms]

[ Is Fred interested in anything?? He's always so serious... When will JJ crack him. ]

probably because i really like kids! :)
i wanted at least 3 before i reached 25
so maybe the doll was supposed to be... a consolation?

[pebblestone]

I suppose it would be difficult to start up a family while adjusting to life in a new country.

That's quite the number of children though. Did you grow up with many siblings?

[ maybe he likes it lively... ]

[underwhelms]

that's only a start.... :)
yeah my parents had 10 kids! it's pretty normal for me
it's weird to be the only one around
i still want to start up a family soon!!
even if it's hard

[pebblestone]

[ 10 CHILDREN..........actually that's probably normal in medieval families too. ]

It must be difficult when your intended is still asleep aboard Thesa.

Had the two of you made plans before the Storm hit? Names and the like?

[ i'm handwaving that they at least talked about podwife once. ]

[underwhelms]

oh yeah we talked all about that
names, where we were going to live, pets
it would've been nice

what about you? did you make plans with your boyfriend?

[pebblestone]

[ ................................ ]

Pardon me?

[underwhelms]

[ surely this will be their bonding moment!! ]

yes!
you're always talking about him
he's a huge hero where you come from right?
you must miss him

i saw that

[pebblestone]

[ how can they bond over something that ISN'T REAL ]

You must be mistaken, I'm not currently involved with anyone, man or woman.

My heart is devoted only to milord Chrom at the moment.

stooooop

[underwhelms]

that's him!!
the way you say your heart is devoted to him is really romantic

[pebblestone]

All knights should be loyal to their lord, I'm hardly an exception.

[ More importantly: ]

And he isn't my 'boyfriend'. He already has a wife and child of his own.

[underwhelms]

ohhh

[ He knows where the mix up was. ]

that's nice
are you his child's godfather?
even if he's not your boyfriend would you say...
he's your best friend?

[pebblestone]

I would not presume to hold such an title when it comes to the acquaintanceship of milord Chrom.

[ Chrom's very popular, you know. ]

But I should like to think that he places a good degree of trust in me.

[underwhelms]

[ so formal... ]

that's a lot of information about your lord chrom
what about you?
what's your family like? why did you become a knight?
do you get scared when you're fighting?
have you ever killed anyone?
is it hard to keep a relationship when you keep going off to battle?

[pebblestone]

[ So many questions....where to start... ]

My father insisted upon his only son following in his footsteps. As a young boy, I thought knighthood would be nothing but honor and glory following victorious returns from battle, but I was quickly proven wrong. There is no glory to be found in telling a woman her husband lies dead many leagues away.

[ No honor to be found in looking into the eyes of a child and solemnly saying her mother won't ever be back for dinner. ]

There is always fear, but moreso than fear for your own life it becomes fear that you will not be able to protect those that you call comrades and friends despite your best efforts.

Why so curious? Do you also wish to become a knight?

[underwhelms]

it sounds really difficult
i'm not interested in becoming a knight
you have to be willing to sacrifice your life for others

[ and jj pretty much only compliments himself, so this is one for the history books: ]

i don't think i'm that good of a person!
but i'm curious to know more about it
i hadn't met superheroes before coming here

[pebblestone]

[ JJ please. ]

There is always room for personal growth, should you wish it.

[ Except it doesn't sound like he does, strangely enough. ]

Is there truly no one you would sacrifice your own life for?

[underwhelms]

i think so
but i'm not a fighter
so if it came down to it...

[ what's even happening ]

i don't know if i'd trust myself not to be too scared
even if i want to do something
i wouldn't want me in my corner

[ he couldn't even finish a skate without choking, saving someone's life is a thousand times more important than that ]

this got weirdly deep

[pebblestone]

You need not be a fighter to be brave. In fact, one of the bravest women I knew never once raised her hand in anger or combat.

[ RIP Emmeryn, may Naga watch over her soul. ]

You are a stronger man than you look. You simply need to work hard in order to uncover the full breadth of your capabilities.

[underwhelms]

[ sparkles in fred's direction... ]

i think you're right
it just takes a bit of creativity, doesn't it?
there are ways to contribute other than taking up weapons
i'll find one for me!

[pebblestone]

That's the spirit! I'd be happy to lend my assistance whenever you should need it.

[ As long as it's not for like....nefarious purposes or anything. ]
