Unless you've been visiting us and I hadn't noticed.

[ercnerd]

Hang on. I've been separated from everyone for weeks. Who are you talking about?

[shaft]

I'm talking about your amorous reunion with Lucretia.

[ercnerd]

[Amorous!?

He nearly chokes on his own spit.]

It wasn't like that!

[shaft]

... It wasn't?

[ ????? ]

[ercnerd]

Lucretia and I aren't courting!

[His face is beet red, though.]

[shaft]

You're blushing, Sieghart. [ Cute. ] Do you care for her?

[ercnerd]

[Cute!?]

You brat, aren't you just trying to avoid talking about Manwol?

[shaft]

I think this school's heard enough about me and Manwol to last a lifetime.

You and Lucretia though, that's new.

[ercnerd]

[Don't think about it. Don't think about it. Don't think about it. Don't—]

That's because there's nothing there! Why won't any of you listen?

[shaft]

You're getting flustered... If you like her, you should be honest about your feelings.

[ LOL ]

[ercnerd]

Who's being dishonest!

[shaft]

You obviously like her. You don't want to be with her?

[ercnerd]

. . . This and that are different!

[shaft]

How so?

[ercnerd]

I'm not here to court anyone. Besides, the circumstances were . . . unusual.

[shaft]

Were you cursed?

[ercnerd]

What? No.

[shaft]

Then how was it unusual?

[ercnerd]

That's something you don't have to know.

[shaft]

[ That's true. ]

Well, whatever the case, I hope you're able to act without regret.

[ercnerd]

You don't have to hope. Just think about surviving this dimension.

[shaft]

I don't want to spend every moment of my day thinking about our impending doom or triumph.

[ercnerd]

Then think about something else. Just stop meddling in my affairs!

[shaft]

[ So shy... ]

Okay, grandpa. I'll play nice. [ ... ] So, no hard feelings toward Kainé?
