week 0, monday, mess hall

[agamid]

[ Hello. Dion is squeezing a fruit gummy, mystified. ]

I have never seen a crystal of such softness.

[sexyasmieu]

[ anise comes over to watch him! ]

You've never seen a fruit gel before?

[agamid]

[ o:! ]

No, nor have I ever even heard of such a thing. I imagine its meant to aid in preservation and transport?

[sexyasmieu]

They're medicine! But the ingredients don't taste very good normally, so they made them soft and sugary so that even children will eat them without complaining.

[agamid]

Ah. [ he smiles a little ] That is quite clever. I might have greatly appreciated such a thing as a child.

Week 1, Monday

[sexyasmieu]

[ Anise can be found in the mess hall! It looks like she was on her way to the galley, but she stops to greet Dion with a smile. ]

Hi, Dion! Have you eaten yet? I could make you something, if you like.

[agamid]

Mistress Anise, I haven't yet. But you needn't burden yourself. [ o: ] Do you often cook yourself?

[sexyasmieu]

"Mistress"? Wow, I haven't been called that before...

[ hehe. ]

I do! I'm really good at it, too. But it's kind of annoying to go to the trouble of making a whole meal just for yourself...

[agamid]

[ it is polite ]

... In that case, I would not refuse a meal from you.

[sexyasmieu]

Hehe. You've got it!

[ she'll open the way into the galley. ]

What kind of food do you like?

week 2, monday, hippitea shop

[agamid]

[ this tea shop is so cute i'm obsessed

dion is kind of just surprised though ]

... This feels a little out of place with everything else.

[sexyasmieu]

[ big same ]

Maybe that's why they needed to have a place like this! For a little change in atmosphere.

[agamid]

... It is refreshing, I must. [ tho ] Do you enjoy pastries and tea?

[sexyasmieu]

I love them! Would you like to try some together, Prince Dion?

[ suddenly formal since their last conversation ]

[agamid]

[ help

he gestures to the display cases ]

Then I would be happy to accompany you for tea.

week 3, monday, retrocade

[agamid]

[ This retrocade is so noisy, that Dion is almost glad when a rift suddenly appears to get him and Anise away from it. At least until he realizes where they are.

It's painful, to be here in the remnants of Twinside, a city that you laid to waste with fire and light, betraying the people who looked to you for hope and protection. It's even more evident as you lie here, that you had failed them long before losing control of Bahamut's power.

You protected the borders, only so that they could starve from the inside.

And while you would've been content to die among the rubble, surrounded by the wreckage of your regrets, Kihel saw fit to show you kindness.

You don't deserve it, but you suppose that you don't deserve the mercy of death yet either. So you rally yourself, and continue on with one more debt in your ledger, toward one final battle. ]

[sexyasmieu]

Wow... you're lucky that kid was there.

[ calling people "kid" when they're probably very close to her age ]

[agamid]

[ help

that gets him to snort ]

Yes, I owe her my life. That much is certain. [ ... ] Though I can't imagine she is much younger than you, Mistress Anise.

[sexyasmieu]

Oh! Yeah, I guess.

... And, well... if I found you in a sorry state like that, I'm sure I'd do the same thing!

You looked pretty rough, though... what happened?

[ She gleaned bits and pieces from that, but... ]

[agamid]

[ aw, that makes him smile ]

My thanks for your generosity. [ though his smile fades soon enough, when she asks after the circumstances around the memory ] I had... committed a grave mistake shortly before this, which resulted in a terrible battle.

I barely escaped it with my life, and the young girl was kind enough to aid me.

Week 3, Saturday

[sexyasmieu]

[ well, anise is showing up at the brig. she changed her clothes because her other clothes got wet trying to catch your ass "that was the other case's evidence" no your ass. ]

Look, we all know what you did. But what the hell were you thinking?

[ she's just coming out with that before she even gets a look at the guy but also. how's he looking. ]

[agamid]

[ pov the cutest girl in the world hates you

he looks tired for the most part ]

I was angry.

[ that's all ]

[sexyasmieu]

[ ... ]

That's it!?

[agamid]

Yes, I was angry and lost control of my temper, and... I killed her.

[sexyasmieu]

Why her, though?
