This page contains all of Cecil's paired base conversations.

Cecil and Kris

First conversation

Cecil: Kris, I have a favor to ask. May I train with you?
(If Kris is male)
Kris: Sure, I don't mind. It won't be easy, though. Are you all right with that?
Cecil: Of course. You won't hear me complaining. Also, let me make this clear: don't go easy on me just because I'm a woman. That would be an insult to me.
Kris: Fair enough. Well said, Cecil.
Cecil: I'm an Altean knight, just like you. I expect the same rights as any other knight, and of course, the same responsibilities. I hate being spoiled or favored because I'm a woman.
Kris: You're strong, Cecil.
(If Kris is female)
Kris: Yes, I don't mind. It won't be easy, though... Are you all right with that?
Cecil: Of course. You won't hear me complaining. Kris, your strength is clear to me. And that's why I don't want to fall behind you in the battlefield.
Kris: Alright, I understand. But, Cecil, you're strong too.

Cecil: Not at all. That's the least thing... ...Huh...?
Kris: What's wrong?
Cecil: ...S-say, Kris... Didn't you hear something?
Kris: Hm? No, not a thing.
Cecil: It sounded like a sad howl...
Kris: Aw, I'm sure it's just the wind. What's wrong, Cecil? You don't look too well...
Cecil: I-I'm calling it a day. Training too much is bad for your body, after all!
Kris: Cecil? But we haven't started training yet...

Second conversation

Cecil: S-say, Kris.
Kris: What's the matter?
Cecil: Er... Did you hear that rumor? I-I don't believe it, but I'm just curious...
Kris: What rumor?
Cecil: Y-you know... The rumor that there's a ghost haunting this army...
Kris: Oh, that nonsense.
Cecil: Nonsense!? They say the ghost of a long-haired girl...
Kris: Yeah, that was just some dry wood. Someone was just seeing things. It's just a joke at this point.
Cecil: A-ah, I see. Yes. Of course. There's no way it could have been a ghost...
Kris: Cecil, don't tell me you're afraid of ghosts?
Cecil: N-no way! Something like that couldn't possibly exist! I'm not a child anymore... Ghosts are silly. But just to be on the safe side...
Kris: Hm?
Cecil: What? Is something wrong?
Kris: Didn't you hear that strange sound, Cecil?
Cecil: Huh?! Kyaaaaaaa!
Kris: Cecil!?
Cecil: W-where, where!? Where did it come from!? Where is it? N-no... Noooo!
Kris: Wait... Calm down, Cecil. I can't move with you clinging on to me like this.
Cecil: B-but, but...! It's t-the gho-ghost... Begoooone vile spirit!
(If Kris is male)
Kris: Cecil... Listen to me...! M-my neck... Stop squeezing my... I can't... breathe...
(If Kris is female)
Kris: Cecil... L-listen to me...! M-my neck... Stop squeezing my... I can't... breathe...

Cecil: Someoooone! Save meeeee!
Kris: T...that's my... line...

Third conversation

Cecil: Oh, er...
Kris: Hi Cecil. About last time... Hey, wait. Please wait. Why are you trying to run away from me?
Cecil: L-last time... I really made a fool of myself. And I was talking so proudly... Y-you can laugh all you want.
Kris: So you have a weakness too, Cecil.
Cecil: Y-yes I do, what about it!? No matter how hard I try, I can't do anything if I'm afraid! It's my fault for being afraid!
Kris: That isn't a bad thing. That's just how you are.
Cecil: Say what...?
(If Kris is male)
Kris: Everyone has their weaknesses. I'm the same. And that goes for battle, too. None of us are perfect. That's why we have to work together. So, you don't need to force yourself.
Cecil: ...Kris. ...That might be true. I didn't want to fall behind. I didn't want to show my weakness. That's why I was always acting tough. But, because you saw my weakness... I think I can relax a bit now.
Kris: I see. All is well, then. But I have to say, you can be unexpectedly cute, Cecil.
Cecil: C-c-cu... Cute!?
Kris: Yes. The way you screamed was...
Cecil: Y-you...! Erase it from your memory! Take this!
Kris: W-wait. Calm down. I was just saying...
Cecil: I don't care, forget about what you saw, forget iiiit! Take this, and this!
(If Kris is female)
Kris: Everyone has their weaknesses. I'm the same. And that goes for battle, too. None of us are perfect. That's why we have to work together. So, we don't need to force ourselves. Not me, not you.
Cecil: ...Kris. ...That might be true. I didn't want to fall behind. I didn't want to show my weakness. That's why I was always acting tough. But, because you saw my weakness... I think I can relax a bit now.
Kris: I see, I'm glad. Then I'm counting on you, Cecil.

Cecil and Roderick

First conversation

Cecil: Wait right there, Roderick! Why did you try to cede me a seat in the previous war council?
Roderick: Why do you even ask? It's tough to take part while standing all the time, right?
Cecil: Save me the unnecessary concerns. Just treat me as if I were a man.
Roderick: ...I've been thinking about that for a while actually. Isn't that kind of unreasonable?
Cecil: Why? How complicated is it?
Roderick: Even if you tell me to treat you as a man, it's a simple fact that you're a woman, Cecil. It felt wrong for me to sit down while you were forced to stand.
Cecil: My legs aren't so weak as to prevent me from standing through a war council.
Roderick: That's not the point...
Cecil: You felt it was wrong because you think women are weak. I can't stand people who think that of me.
Roderick: Why make such a fuss over gender distinctions? Why not just accept my affection?
Cecil: ...A-a-a-affection? What do you mean by affection...?
Roderick: ...Is there something wrong?
Cecil: Y-you won't sway me with that word! Affection's got nothing to do with this! Hmph!
Roderick: ...Did she misunderstand something?

Second conversation

Roderick: Cecil, hold on...
Cecil: Kyaa! Don't surprise me like that.
Roderick: Sorry for calling you from behind. But, you'd ignore me unless I did this, wouldn't you?
Cecil: What? No...
Roderick: Are you sure? It felt like you were clearly avoiding me, you know... Oh well. Your sleeve is torn.
Cecil: ...You're right. I didn't notice.
Roderick: It's also a knight's duty to take care of their personal grooming. You should fix it later.
Cecil: Fix it? That's... going to be an issue.
Roderick: Are you bad with sewing?
Cecil: What's with the surprise? Don't tell me you think all girls know how to sew. Yes, I'll admit I don't know how. I can't help it, okay!
Roderick: I didn't say anything like that... Alright, lend me your clothes later. I'll fix it.
Cecil: Huh? Rody, are you saying YOU can sew?
Roderick: Is that so surprising? My family isn't that rich. So I had to do all the sewing and cooking myself.
Cecil: You can even cook...?
Roderick: I'm not that skilled though. Well, later then.
Cecil: Oh, yes. Err... Thanks.
Roderick: What? You'd do the same for me.

Third conversation

Cecil: Hey Roderick, there's something I'd like you to see.
Roderick: What is it?
Cecil: This.
Roderick: ...Charcoal?
Cecil: It's a cookie! I was doing it like you taught me, but I can't bake it right no matter what I do.
Roderick: That's probably because the stove's fire was too strong. That's why it's so charred...
Cecil: I don't know how to regulate the fire...
Roderick: Alright. I'll show you when the opportunity arises. I used to bake cookies for my little sisters all the time, so I'm used to it.
Cecil: ...You sound just like a mother from some family. Like, "leave your chores to me!"
Roderick: Since my mother died early, I took care of my sisters from then on. Perhaps deep down, I felt that I had to become a substitute for Mother, for their sake.
Cecil: I see... After listening to your story, I feel ashamed for being so determined to not lose to men. After all, I see you can do the jobs of both women and men.
Roderick: Nah, it's nothing to brag about really. Besides, I think your will to go beyond gender distinctions is most admirable, Cecil.
Cecil: You speak truly? It makes me happy to hear that.
Roderick: ...But, that aside, you'd better learn how to cook. At least to the point you can make something edible...

Cecil and Katarina

First conversation

Katarina: Oh... Cecil.
Cecil: Long time no see... Katarina. How dare you come waltzing back as if nothing happened.
Katarina: ...I'm sorry.
Cecil: Prince Marth and Kris are too kind, so they might really have forgiven you. But I'm different. Even if you say you've reformed, I can't just simply trust you, not after you betrayed all of us.
Katarina: I know... With everything I've done, yours would be anyone's natural reaction. But... there's one thing I'd like you to believe.
Cecil: And that would be?
Katarina: When I was in the 7th Platoon... Both my laughter and the peace I felt were real. As was my friendship with you, Cecil.
Cecil: ...I've already forgotten my friendship with you.
Katarina: ...I see... Then it seems I have no choice but to regain your trust through my actions from now. Cecil... I truly hope we'll someday be able to talk and laugh together, like we used to.
Cecil: ...I see. In that case, I'll be watching you battle, from behind. I'll know right away if you ease up. Prepare yourself.

Second conversation

Cecil: Katarina! Show me your leg.
Katarina: Cecil...?
Cecil: ...There's blood, as I thought. You were hiding the wound you suffered in battle, weren't you?
Katarina: ...I'm sorry. I thought I wouldn't be allowed in the front lines if they found out I was wounded.
Cecil: If you leave your wound be, you'll become unable to walk. I'll stand guard today, so go get your wound treated and get some rest.
Katarina: But I have to fight... Until you can accept me...
Cecil: I already accept you. There's no way I'd doubt a girl who has come this far. It's painfully clear that you're working hard to atone for your sins, from the bottom of your heart.
Katarina: Really? Thank you...
Cecil: Yeah, so... You can go rest already. I can't stand watching you like this...
Katarina: I'm sorry... for making you worry.
Cecil: I don't want to hear you apologize. I want us to make up. Look, everything is now the way it was before.
Katarina: It's not that simple... There are others who still doubt me. Until I have regained everyone's trust, I must continue to fight...
Cecil: What? Who on earth doesn't trust you, Katarina? Don't worry. I'll beat up everybody who doesn't.
Katarina: Beat them up... Teehee. You really haven't changed, Cecille. Once your mind is made up, you always charge in a straight line. You're so reliable...
Cecil: See, now you're laughing. That's more like it. If you don't relax your shoulder like that, you won't be able to use your full strength. Don't worry about those who judge you. Just go back to how you used to be.
Katarina: ...Yes. Thank you very much, Cecil.

Third conversation

Cecil: I saw that, Katarina!
Katarina: Huh? What?
Cecil: You're really easy to read, you know. After all, you... were always looking at that one person.
Katarina: Ah...! Oh, err, ah... Please! Don't tell anyone!
Cecil: Hmm, what should I do?
Katarina: Please... If that person were to know... I...
Cecil: Wait, don't cry! I joke, I joke. I don't like spreading rumors.
Katarina: ...Phew.
Cecil: Teehee. But talking like this really takes me back. Those times we had, when training to be knights with Kris and the others... Isn't it just so nostalgic?
Katarina: Yes... I completely agree... But, back then, I betrayed everyone...
Cecil: W-wait, don't cry... You hear me, Katarina? Remember this reeeeally well. No matter what happened thus far, and no matter what happens from now on... We are friends.
Katarina: Oh... Cecil... Uhh... Sob...
Cecil: W-wait, don't start crying again! Oh please. Just what should I do with you?
Katarina: I-I'm sorry... I'm just... so happy... sniff...
