Robin: Crepuscule... Crepuscule... What did that mean again?
Maribelle: Are you studying, Robin?
Robin: Oh, hello, Maribelle. Just reading up a bit.
Maribelle: Reading up, how lovely. I hadn't realized the lowborn read at all!
Robin: Did you just drop by to look down your nose at me, or was there something else?
Maribelle: A noble's nose engages in no such activities! I was sincerely impressed. If my turn of phrase offended, I apologize. Forgive me?
Robin: Er, all right. I take it back. But was there something you needed?
Maribelle: Yes. I had hoped to learn more about you.
Robin: Me? Why me? I'm not that interesting, you know.
Maribelle: Can you fault me for being curious about an amnesiac with a genius for strategy? You've also earned quite a bit of trust from my dear friend Lissa. It's only natural that I'd want to learn more about the stranger in our midst. I suppose you might simply say that I hoped we could become...friends. Unless you object, of course.
Robin: No, I don't object, per se. But...weren't we already friends?
Maribelle: Oh, I'm pleased to hear you say that, Robin!
Robin: Heh! You really can be sweet sometimes, Maribelle. Well then, ask away. If I know the answer, I'm happy to tell it.
Maribelle: Oh, lovely! That's very kind. Well, then... Tell me about the quaint customs of the unwashed masses from whence you come? I'm especially interested in this "slang" of which you brutes seem so fond...
Robin: ...I take back what I said, and then I take back the take-back before that.

Maribelle: A question about the material we covered yesterday, Robin.
Robin: Ah, you mean about my lessons on the language of the great unwashed?
Maribelle: Precisely, yes. I immediately set about to practice what you'd taught me, but... Well, everyone I spoke to looked askance, or avoided eye contact altogether. Others still contorted with glee, as if they were stifling laughter.
Robin: Wait, you used that slang? Out loud? In public?
Maribelle: If you hope to communicate with a person, you must first speak their language, no? And the quickest way to internalize new knowledge is to put it into practice!
Robin: Yeeees, both of those are technically true. But, Maribelle, when we talked, I... Look. The examples I taught you are reserved for intimate friends.
Maribelle: What?! You knew this and didn't tell me? Did you hope to ruin me? Wait... So when I told Chrom he was "a right sweet bit'a fruit"...? You mean to tell me that was inappropriate?
Robin: I'm sorry! It was all in good fun! I never thought you'd actually—
Maribelle: One moment. If you taught me this slang, then you must consider us intimate friends?
Robin: Uh...
Maribelle: I'm afraid I had no idea! I'm flattered, Robin, truly. In that case, I ought have begun my practice with you. Forgive me.
Robin: No, that's... I don't...
Maribelle: Awright then, pet? Everythin' luvverly jubberly, ain't it? 'Ave a bit'a rabbit?
Robin: MARIBELLE! Stop! Please! I can literally hear everything you stand for screaming and dying in agony! Look, I'll clear things up with everyone. Okay? I'll take the blame. Just please, please, PLEASE promise you'll never talk like that again.
Maribelle: Well, I suppose if it's that important to you...
Robin: Thank you.
Maribelle: Hey, no skin off my arse, is it? I'll shut me north and south!
Robin: ...Wait a minute. I didn't teach you that. Damnation! Who has done this to you, Maribelle? Who?!
Maribelle: Hm-hm! I'm afraid THAT is my little secret...

Robin: Er, Maribelle? I have an idea... Why don't we skip the slang lesson today? Instead, maybe you could teach me about the aristocratic life?
Maribelle: Any chance to educate my social inferiors is a chance I will take. Now then! What would you like to know?
Robin: Well, you hear people talk about a noble bearing, yes? What is that exactly?
Maribelle: Well, I suppose it begins with learning to stand properly.
Robin: Am I not really standing now? Because it feels like I'm standing.
Maribelle: You have the posture of a damp noodle! The resolute promise of a soufflé! A noble stands...thusly. The spine forms a straight line. Pretend an invisible thread pulls your head ever skyward. ...Go on, give it a try.
Robin: Let's see. Straight spine... Invisible thread... Like this?
Maribelle: Why are you jutting your chin out?
Robin: It happens naturally when I force my head up.
Maribelle: A pauper's instinct! Cast it away!
Robin: Is this better?
Maribelle: Your shoulders are raised. Lower them and hold your chest high.
Robin: So like...this?
Maribelle: Yes! Just so! There, now. That wasn't so hard, was it? I say, you're quite the apt pupil, Robin. With enough practice, you could become a gentleman fit for the highest court! Well, I may exaggerate. Perhaps one of the more middling courts.
Robin: You think? Wow, I never—
Maribelle: Then it's settled! I shall make it my personal mission to shape you into a man of high society. I'll instruct you until you're fit to walk with kings! ...Or at least a baron or two.
Robin: Er, you don't really have to—
Maribelle: Bup-bup-bup! Nothing is less noble than leaving a task half done! You needn't be shy. We're intimate friends, after all.
Robin: Wait... This is revenge for the slang incident, isn't it?
Maribelle: Less talking, more walking! ...ARISTOCRATIC walking, please! Then we will work on ballroom dance and how to properly wield a fork!
Robin: Heeeeelp meeeeeee!

Maribelle: Well, shall we conclude today's etiquette lesson here, then? You've been very patient, Robin. Go on and rest up for tomorrow.
Robin: Actually, Maribelle? I was hoping you could teach me one more thing...
Maribelle: Quite the eager student today, aren't we? Very well, what shall we cover?
Robin: How to give a present to a lady. ...Specifically a ring.
Maribelle: What? ...Since when is there a lady in your life, Robin?
Robin: For a while now, actually.
Maribelle: But... *ahem* not a word of it to your dear friend Maribelle?! For shame! Name the strumpet! I'll see that she is... Er... *Ahem* I mean...that's fine. You are entitled to your privacy. But I'm afraid even I can't teach the proper etiquette in this case. For such matters, it's best to set protocol aside and show your feelings honestly.
Robin: Oh, good. Come here, then.
Maribelle: ...I beg your pardon?!
Robin: You hand. Give it here.
Maribelle: Wh-what are you... Be gentle!
Robin: Aaand, there! ...It looks good on you.
Maribelle: ...A gold band? Forgive me, but what is this, precisely?
Robin: A proposal.
Maribelle: As in marriage?! So then, the lady you were to give it to is...
Robin: Wearing it. Thanks to the etiquette lessons, I've been spending every day with you.
Maribelle: Well, apparently it hasn't been enough—your proposal was most ungainly! But it was also...wonderful. Oh, Robin, you've made me so very happy.
Robin: Then your answer is yes?
Maribelle: Of course! I have the rest of our lives to shape you into my perfect gentleman.
Maribelle (Confession): My lord, you saw to the very core of my heart. And may the gods help you if you break it.

Maribelle: Oh! Good day, milord.
Chrom: Hello, Maribelle. ...And just Chrom is fine, please.
Maribelle: A-are you here all alone? Goodness, but there's a chill in the air today! Would you care for a cup of tea?
Chrom: Well, I won't say no. ...Thank you. You're very kind.
Maribelle: Oh, please! For a noblewoman of Ylisse, serving royalty is a high honor!
Chrom: In times of peace, maybe. But this is war. Kings, nobles, and peasants alike are all just comrades-in-arms. So please, don't wear yourself out trying to look after me.
Maribelle: Yes, but—
Chrom: You've been fighting as hard as any of us. You must be exhausted.
Maribelle: Well... I confess I sometimes find myself wishing for a respite. But then I remind myself how much harder it must be for you! Heavy lies the crown and all that, yes? So it's my duty to help you however I can!
Chrom: Your dedication is appreciated, Maribelle. ...A bit extreme, maybe, but appreciated. Just promise to look after yourself as well. Will you do that? ...For me?
Maribelle: Your wish is my command, milord. But first let me bring you that tea!
Chrom: I'll take it. Thanks.
Maribelle: I so very much enjoy our time together... I pray we find opportunity to do it again.
Chrom: I hope so, too.

Maribelle: Tsk! The pool of suspects grows large by the moment!
Chrom: Er, sorry. Who's a suspect now?
Maribelle: Oh, milord! I didn't see you there! I was just going over my... list.
Chrom: Uh-oh. This can't be good. What list is that?
Maribelle: I've been keeping track of men who may be getting too close to Lissa! My darling is a bewitching vixen, even if she doesn't realize the power of her charms. So when these lecherous men get too close, I drive them back from the ramparts!
Chrom: ...You aren't joking, are you. Why on earth would you do such a thing?!
Maribelle: Isn't it obvious? Lissa is your younger sister, and princess to the royal house of Ylisse! It falls upon me, her bosom friend and true companion, to save her from scallywags!
Chrom: ...Scallywags? Er, look, Maribelle. I think my sister can guard her own ramparts just fine.
Maribelle: Ha! Don't be so naive! It seems even great men are blind when it comes to matters of the heart!
Chrom: Hey! I am NOT blind! ...And you're being paranoid! There's no harm in Lissa having a few friends among her comrades-in-arms.
Maribelle: That they are comrades makes them more dangerous! Snakes in the den, says I! As such, I've put a strict screening process in place. Any man who would speak to Lissa must first be interviewed by me. Many times. AND provide supporting documentation, of course!
Chrom: ...Heh. I guess in a way it's reassuring to know that Lissa has you watching over her. Well then, I'll trust you to keep her safe for me.
Maribelle: Of course, milord! A woman of my position would offer no less!

A Support

Maribelle: Milord! I hope this day finds you well.
Chrom: As well as can be expected.
Maribelle: If there is anything I can do to ease your burden, you will let me know, won't you?
Chrom: Of course. Thank you, Maribelle. But you really need to stop exhausting yourself on my behalf. I don't deserve it.
Maribelle: Bite your tongue! Serving you is sheer delight! Why, I'd gladly lay down my life for you and Lissa.
Chrom: Well let's hope it never comes to that. I don't want anyone dying for my sake.
Maribelle: But on such a day, I would be first in line to thrust myself upon the enemy's pikes!
Chrom: That reminds me: I talked to some soldiers who saw you get captured by Plegia. They say that, as the Plegian army approached, you went out to meet them. That you parleyed with their captain, asking them to withdraw from Ylisse. And that the honorless curs responded by taking you hostage. Tell me the truth, Maribelle: Did you do this for me and Lissa?
Maribelle: ...I thought to protect you and Lissa from danger. That was my only goal. I know it was wrong of me to take such drastic action without consulting you. But you must believe me when I say—
Chrom: Enough, Maribelle. I believe you. But I need you to promise something... You must never take such a rash action again. Do you understand?
Maribelle: Yes, but—
Chrom: Just as you care for me and Lissa, so do we care about you. We would never forgive ourselves if you came to harm for our sake.
Maribelle: Y-you... are too kind, milord. I solemnly swear that I will never do such a foolish thing again.
Chrom: It wasn't foolish, Maribelle. It was brave and... noble. But if we don't fight as equals in this war, we have no hope of winning it. And if Lissa and I were to lose you... It would be a pain we couldn't bear.
Maribelle: I... Well, I... It won't happen again, milord. I swear it!
Chrom: We must stand shoulder to shoulder. Divided we fall, but together we rise!

Maribelle: Milord! I brewed elderberry tea and buttered some crumpets. Won't you rest a spell?
Chrom: Well, since you've gone to all this trouble... Wait. Is this gooseberry jam? It was my favorite as a child! How did you know that?
Maribelle: A little bird told me...
Chrom: A little bird named Lissa, I wager. Heh heh, that girl...
Maribelle: Oh, how I envy your sister... You have such affection for her... And you have spent a lifetime together... How can I ever compare?
Chrom: Maribelle, what are you talking about? Lissa's my sister. You're my... friend.
Maribelle: Yes, but you are also royalty and... And you're surrounded by all these fine and noble women! All the time! Lissa and her friends... The court ladies... Oh, you must have such wonderful times! I feel so dreary and plain by compare.
Chrom: Wonderful times?! Hah! Royal court is dull as an anvil. It's my duty to attend, but that's all. ...And it's a loathsome duty at that.
Maribelle: B-but... beautiful admirers hang upon your every word! So how could there possibly be room in your life for... What I mean is... How will you ever find a place for me in your heart?
Chrom: Um, I'm sorry, did you just say...
Maribelle: ...Wait. Did I say that out loud? ...I said that out loud, didn't I? ...Loudly. OH GODS! Chrom, PLEASE pretend you didn't hear that! I don't know what came over me! Curse this blasted battle fatigue! My mind must be on the moon! Oh, that the ground might open up and swallow this foolish creature!
Chrom: Maribelle! Get ahold of yourself!
Maribelle: Er... *ahem* Forgive me, milord. I... I don't know what came over me. ...Again.
Chrom: Listen, are you—
Maribelle: Would you mind terribly if we started over? I have something important to tell you, and it deserves a better beginning.
Chrom: Well, I think you already told me... Er, but please. Do go on.
Maribelle: Milord, I am... deeply and madly in love with you! I always have been so, even when we were but children. Yet I've never been able to confess this shameful secret. You were always surrounded by those fine court ladies, and I... Well, I felt so coarse and provincial! I was ashamed, and so kept my feelings hidden.
Chrom: I... see.
Maribelle: B-but now I just don't care anymore! I had to confess, and I'm glad I did. It's like a horrible weight has been lifted from my shoulders!
Chrom: You really should have told me earlier, Maribelle. Because the truth is... I feel the same for you.
Maribelle: T-truly? Oh, Chrom, don't jest with me! Not about this!
Chrom: I assure you, I am not jesting. I've loved you since we were young. Your poise, your consideration for others...
Maribelle: M-milord... Are you truly...
Chrom: Perhaps this will convince you of the sincerity of my feelings.
Maribelle: Oh, heavens. It's a ring! ...And it bears the crest of House Ylisse! Y-you would have me wear this treasure?
Chrom: My parents had it crafted to celebrate my birth. I've always kept it safe because I knew someday I would give it away. I would give it to the woman I wanted for a lifelong companion. ...For a wife. So yes, I want you to have it.
Maribelle: This is a dream come true. I'll never take it off!
Chrom: I wonder how Lissa is going to take this news?
Maribelle: Lissa? Oh thunder, she'll be more excited than anyone! "My big brother is FINALLY getting married," she'll say!
Chrom: Ha ha! You know, I think you're right.

Lissa: This tea is soooo good!
Maribelle: Isn't it just divine, darling? The leaves are infused with a citrus aroma, so I was certain you'd like it.
Lissa: I like citrus?
Maribelle: In all the years we've shared tea, you only mention the flavor if it's a citrus blend. How funny that you didn't even know!
Lissa: That is funny! And a little embarrassing, I guess... You know me better than I know myself, Maribelle!
Maribelle: That's hardly a surprise, darling. I'm your best friend.
Lissa: Hee hee! I know! It's SO true. ...Wait a second. I don't know what kind of tea YOU like best!
Maribelle: Well now, that simply won't do at all. Why don't you take a guess?
Lissa: Hmmmm. Is it... rose tea?
Maribelle: Tsk! Such a common flavor.
Lissa: Tea with milk?
Maribelle: Ugh! Why not just drink from a mud puddle?!
Lissa: This is hard! Maybe if I knew more about tea... What other kinds are there?
Maribelle: Ah, well. I suppose I'll have to take pity and simply tell you. My favorite blend...
Lissa: Is...?
Maribelle: Black tea infused with the still-warm blood of an adult male grizzly bear.
Lissa: *PFFFFFFFFFFFTTT!*
Maribelle: Lissa, what is wrong with you! What manner of lady spews tea?! It is simply not done!
Lissa: What's wrong with me? What's wrong with you?! Who would drink such a thing?!
Maribelle: No one, darling. It was only a jest. ...Now wipe your mouth, please.
Lissa: I actually believed you... All right, what's the real answer, then? What's your favorite tea?
Maribelle: Why, whichever ones you enjoy, darling. That way I get to appreciate both the beverage and your enjoyment of it! So if you ever find a blend you're especially fond of, just say the word
Lissa: Um, all right. I will. Thanks. But I still kinda feel like that wasn't a real answer...

Maribelle: Phew... Today's battle must have been the fiercest yet! You're not hurt, are you, darling?
Lissa: No, I'm fine. What about you?
Maribelle: I also appear to have escaped injury, thank you.
Lissa: Good! That's... good... .....
Maribelle: Why, whatever is wrong, darling? ...Are you hurt after all?! Why, when I find the dastard responsible, I'll gouge out his—
Lissa: No, no! It's nothing like that. I'm just wondering how long this is going to continue. All the injuries... All the death... It's all just so awful. If I stop to think about it, I get too scared to move.
Maribelle: There's no need for fear! I will lay my life down for yours without hesitation.
Lissa: That doesn't help at all! I don't want YOU getting hurt either!
Maribelle: Don't worry, darling. I'm far too clever to allow that to happen.
Lissa: Yeah, but... didn't you get kidnapped by those guys from Plegia?
Maribelle: Th-that was... There were extenuating circumstances! In any case, my mind is quite made up. Keeping you safe is my utmost priority.
Lissa: I don't understand why you always put me first. Even when we have tea, we always drink the kind I like. You need to take care of yourself too, Maribelle. Don't deprive yourself of the things you enjoy, and don't you dare get hurt!
Maribelle: Oh, my darling Lissa... I appreciate that, I really do, but please don't let it trouble you. I AM doing what I enjoy, you see? All that I do, I do because I want to.
Lissa: That's not what I meant, and you know it!
Maribelle: Don't make that face, darling. It will give you the most terrible wrinkles later. You know what I think we both need? A nice warm bath. I feel as if I'm made of nothing but dust and sweat! Let's go to the bath.
Lissa: H-hey, wait! Maribelle!

Lissa: Maribelle! Maribelle, are you all right?! How bad is it? Let me see! Does it hurt?!
Maribelle: Darling, you're raving like a madwoman! ...Or, gods forbid, a lowborn.
Lissa: It's my fault! He was swinging for me, and you jumped in the way!
Maribelle: Yes, and here I stand, still right as rain! I told you, I'm far too clever to suffer harm at the hands of some barbarian.
Lissa: W-well, as long as you're all right... Thank you, Maribelle.
Maribelle: It's my pleasure, darling.
Lissa: But... Maribelle? Why are you so determined to protect me? Is it because of what things were like before you joined the Shepherds?
Maribelle: Wh-whatever makes you think—
Lissa: That's it. Isn't it?
Maribelle: *Sigh* I suppose there's no sense in denying it. As I'm sure you're aware, Lissa, I can sometimes be... difficult. I never had much in the way of friends. ...Never had any friends, in truth. The other children whispered about me... At court I was always alone... Until you. You were the only one willing to give me a chance. You... saved me, Lissa. And I swore to do the same.
Lissa: But that was years ago! I'd forgotten all about it until just now.
Maribelle: But I have never forgotten! How could I? I was alone in the dark, and you offered me your kindness. You shone as bright as the sun, Lissa, and burned twice as warm.
Lissa: But I didn't do anything special! I just... I just wanted to be friends.
Maribelle: With a pariah? With the butt of every malicious rumor and cruel jape?
Lissa: I didn't care what those jerks thought! I choose my own friends! And you're a wonderful person... You didn't deserve any of that.
Maribelle: Ha ha! Oh, my darling, you are the most incurably soft-hearted woman in all Ylisse and that is precisely why I care for you and would defend you with my life.
Lissa: Aw, Maribelle... Thanks. But I don't want to be some fragile teacup that has to be protected at all times. From here on, I'll be jumping in front of axes for you, too! And the same goes for tea. Next time, we're drinking what YOU want to drink! Though I'm not sure where I'll find an adult male grizzly... But whatever! True friendship is a road that runs in two directions, right?
Maribelle: Ha ha! Yes, I suppose it is. ...I did mention the bear blood was only a jape, correct?

Frederick: Ah, Maribelle. I hope you are well.
Maribelle: Yes, thank you, Frederick. It's good that you're here; I wanted to talk to you. Is it true what they say? That you're a professionally trained steward?
Frederick: A steward? Gracious, no. I wouldn't have a clue about such work. I am a knight, milady.
Maribelle: Oh? That's not what I heard. But I suppose rumors have a way of... Er, what are you doing?

Frederick: I suppose. But I only do so if I have spare time after...killing and such.
Maribelle: And what will you do after you finish laying out these garments?
Frederick: I shall check on the dinner preparations and then plan tomorrow's menu.
Maribelle: You ARE a steward!
Frederick: My good lady, while some of my duties may resemble those of a steward, I assure you—
Maribelle: I have spent a lifetime in noble houses, and you, sir, are a steward! Serving tea? Dusting china? Polishing the good silver? You are most definitely a—
Frederick: I AM NOT A STEWARD! ...I just like things to be neat and tidy.
Maribelle: Well, you're terribly good at it. So perhaps you would come to my manor and instruct my staff?
Frederick: Milady, I don't think—
Maribelle: Frankly, it's impossible to get good help these days! Our head steward is so old, and he's off with the gout nearly every other day. Now, we don't want to work the poor man to death—just think of the scandal! But a house can't maintain itself, and what will we do when he kicks the bucket?
Frederick: ...Your sympathy is touching.
Maribelle: Eventually yes, we'll have to put our poor old steward out to pasture. But I would consider it a personal favor if you trained our young staff in the interim. I'm sure there are so many things you could teach them! ...This is just until we have a new man in place, of course.
Frederick: Milady, for the last time, I am a knight! I am not, nor have I ever been, a ste—
Maribelle: Fine! Then just show them how to tidy up or whatever it is you do around here! You teach recruits how to fight, yes? This is the same, except you fight filth.
Frederick: Well, yes. It's true that I help instruct the younger Shepherds... But they are the best and brightest of the realm, and I merely offer advice.
Maribelle: Oh, good heavens. You couldn't POSSIBLY make this any more complicated! Fine then. Why don't YOU teach ME so I can teach THEM?
Frederick: Teach...you, milady?
Maribelle: I'm nothing if not best and bright! So, yes. You shall teach me tidiness. And once I've learned your secrets, I can put our manor back to order myself!
Frederick: Well, I suppose that is acceptable...

Frederick: Ahem! Maribelle? Milady? It's morning. Time to wake up.
Maribelle: Unnngh...m-morning? Already? Wait one second! Where's the sun?! It's pitch black outside!
Frederick: A steward's day begins before dawn. And unless I am mistaken, you expressed a desire to study the arts of stewardship.
Maribelle: Ugh, yes, I did say that, didn't I? At least, I think I did...
Frederick: Good. Then let us begin with our morning duties. A steward must prepare tea for the lords and ladies before they wake.
Maribelle: *YAAAAAAWN* I'm SOOO tired... But I suppose I can manage to boil a— Oh, blast! The stupid kettle fell over!
Frederick: Then please boil the water again. And this time, do so carefully. Now, as you have wasted a pot of your master's finest tea, what do you say?
Maribelle: Really, now! This is simply... Oh, all right! I'm sorry for spilling the stupid tea and blah blah whatever.
Frederick: UNACCEPTABLE! ...Now then. Try it again, this time like you mean it.
Maribelle: *Grumble, grumble* Oh, dearest Lord Frederick, please forgive my clumsiness! It shall never happen again! (...Because next time I'll spill it on your stupid head.)
Frederick: I shall assume your mumbling was all aboveboard. Now then! We must prepare the silverware. Today you are in charge of spoons.
Maribelle: ...Who does he think he is, making me polish cutlery? I'm a LADY! I ought to polish that lance of his and cram it up his... Here you are, milord! All done, milord! Does the shininess please milord?
Frederick: ...... UNACCEPTABLE! I want to see my reflection on the surface. ...Start again.
Maribelle: GRRRRRRRRR!

Frederick: Ah, Maribelle! Up early, I see.
Maribelle: You know, once you get used to it, this early morning lark isn't so bad.
Frederick: Excellent. Shall we proceed with our training, then? First you must boil the tea, and then I have a chest of silverware that needs polishing.
Maribelle: Wait, Frederick! Let me take that.
Frederick: Excuse me?
Maribelle: It's just... I'm worried about the foot you hurt in battle the other day. You should be trying to rest.
Frederick: Well, I concede the injury is troubling me somewhat... Frankly, I'm flattered you noticed. No one else has.
Maribelle: It's thanks to the steward training you've been kind enough to give me. I spot details like that all the time now. ...Well then, milord? Tea?
Frederick: My, but this tea is excellent! Are you using a new leaf?
Maribelle: It's a special vulnerary concoction for your foot. I spoke to the apothecary last night, and he said it came highly recommended.
Frederick: Why, Maribelle...
Maribelle: Y-yes?
Frederick: You have taken my lessons to heart and understand the true spirit of service!
Maribelle: Do you think so?
Frederick: I may not be a steward, but I constantly strive to be a better knight. Consideration for others... Willingness to assist any in need... I speak, of course, of the spirit of service that is at the core of chivalry.
Maribelle: I never made the connection...
Frederick: Weaponry and horsemanship can be taught to any capable of swinging a blade. But the spirit of chivalry comes from within! Maribelle, you have shown that you understand what it means to serve others.
Maribelle: Frederick, I'm...honored that you think so. I'm going to keep up my training and never forget your lessons!
Frederick: Good! Nothing pleases me more than inspiring a love of service!
Maribelle: Oh, you WILL continue to give me lessons, won't you, Frederick?
Frederick: If that is your wish, milady.

Frederick: How do you find it?
Maribelle: It's delicious, Frederick! You do make a wonderful cup of elderberry tea.
Frederick: And yet it hardly compares to your own brew, Maribelle.
Maribelle: Frederick, dear. I've been thinking... When this beastly war is over, are you sure you won't consider coming to the manor?
Frederick: B-but we had an arrangement. You were to teach your domestic staff...
Maribelle: Yes, I know. But the more I think about it, the more I realize it simply MUST be you. ...Please? Not even for a short while? Because then we could... Well, you see... We could be together more often.
Frederick: Together as servant and lady? No. I must refuse.
Maribelle: Do you hate me, Frederick? ...Am I so awful to look upon?
Frederick: In truth, I have grown...very fond of you. More, perhaps, than you suspect.
Maribelle: Wh-what do you mean?
Frederick: So fond, in fact, that I would be willing to join your household on one condition... That you take me as your husband! Maribelle, my love! Will you do me the honor?
Maribelle: Is that a ring? For ME?! Gods, it's beautiful!
Frederick: The stone is modest, but I polished it until it shone as radiant as you, milady. Won't you please accept it?
Maribelle: Oh, Frederick... Of COURSE I will!

Maribelle: Charmed, I'm sure. But flattery so freely given quickly loses its luster. If you insist on calling yourself a noble, you must take care what you say and do. Your words and deeds reflect not only upon yourself, but all men of breeding.
Virion: Then, fair lady, you must tell me the best way to polish my noble reputation... Perhaps we can have a first lesson tonight over dinner? Just the two of us, mmm?
Maribelle: Absolutely not! I can't be seen consorting with a rogue such as yourself!
Virion: You wound me, milady! Harsh words for one whose love for you is deeper than the sea.
Maribelle: Don't play me for a fool, cad. You've more love for that frilly shirt than for me.
Virion: She wounds me yet again! What will it take to prove my sincerity, dear lady?
Maribelle: I can tell you this: honey-coated words alone will not be enough.

Virion: And so we find ourselves come to this...
Maribelle: Is something troubling you, Virion? You stand as if you have the weight of the world on your shoulders.
Virion: You see to the core of me, my lady. I'd thought to hide my troubles from you. But 'tis true: I bear a terrible weight that threatens to crush me with every step. And your kind, loving eyes have spied it at first blush!
Maribelle: Er...
Virion: I find that war makes people ever so eager to whine. Don't you agree? "I can't march another step!" "Why must we carry all these spare bows?!" And so on. I had to engage in a full retreat just to give my poor ears a rest.
Maribelle: Is THAT why you wouldn't advance with the rest of us during the previous fighting? Gods, what madness! What's wrong with you, Virion?! The fact I have even a moment's concern for your welfare boggles the mind.
Virion: B-but...did you see the way I came running onto the battlefield at the end? It was magnificent! Why, our foes all but fled in terror at the sight of me!
Maribelle: Was this before or after you let yourself get surrounded? Before or after you panicked and forced Chrom to rescue you?
Virion: All part of the plan! By playing the decoy, I lured the enemy into our snare. They don't call me Virion the Cunning for nothing, you know.
Maribelle: You are the most dishonest and silly man I've ever had the misfortune to meet. You call yourself a nobleman? Ha! I've met scullery maids more noble. You, sir, are an embarrassment to men of good breeding everywhere.
Virion: Enough! It's one thing to consider me superficial, but dishonest? Silly? Milady's ravishing beauty hides a tongue that cuts too deep. But alas, it's not the first time I've been hurt by words so ill considered.
Maribelle: I'm... I'm sorry, Virion. I should not have spoken so harshly.

Maribelle: Hello, Virion. I've not seen much of you as of late... Are you keeping well?
Virion: Well enough. Busy with noble deeds and so forth. ...Keeping up the good name.
Maribelle: Er, Virion, about before...
Virion: I should go, milady. Forgive me.
Maribelle: Oh, yes. Yes, of course. It's just that... Well, you haven't been yourself recently. You seem tired. I rather miss my lively old Virion.
Virion: Milady, when you called me dishonest, it gave me pause. Am I a credit to nobility? Do I bring honor to house and peer? Can I yet be better? I am unused to thinking on such things, and my ponderings gave me a terrific headache. I've barely had a bite to eat and grow ever thinner by the day. If I think any harder, I fear I shall simply waste away.
Maribelle: Hah!
Virion: Scorn does not become you, milady.
Maribelle: My apologies. But I promise, I'm not mocking your plight. I just find this ever so amusing. For you see, you have already proven me wrong and don't even realize it.
Virion: Hmm? You have me at a disadvantage, sweet lady.
Maribelle: I said you were superficial and dishonest. A blight on all who hold good blood. But here you stand, anguishing about whether you are worthy or not. That alone proves your worth!
Virion: ...For true? A great relief if you feel so. Now I think...I must away to...the inn...
Maribelle: Virion? Virion! H-help! Someone! Virion has collapsed!
Virion: F-forgive me. I haven't eaten a morsel all day, and I suddenly felt quite dizzy.
Maribelle: You fainted because you were hungry? I thought you'd suffered a mortal wound!
Virion: Perhaps if I had some salted pork... And bread... And an apple or two...
Maribelle: You are a remarkable man, in every sense of the word. Well, instead of lunching at the inn, perhaps you might dine with me today? I recently took down a fat boar that would be perfect in a turnip stew.
Virion: I would be honored, milady.

Virion: Ah, sweetest Maribelle.
Maribelle: Virion?
Virion: I want to thank you again for that wonderful stew the other day.
Maribelle: Oh, but the pleasure was mine. After all, we are friends now, aren't we? And I did so enjoy listening to your stories. Especially the one about getting lost in your own castle. I know the exact feeling!
Virion: It seems we have much in common, being fellow members of the nobility. Perhaps when next we share a pot of stew, we might speak of more romantic things?
Maribelle: There you go again with your wild japes... And just when I was starting to form a more favorable impression. I DO hope you're not going to disappoint me again.
Virion: It is no jest, milady, I assure you. ...And perhaps this will prove my sincerity.
Maribelle: ...A ring? You would offer me a ring?
Virion: I have always been your most fervent admirer, milady. I spoke true when I said my love is deeper than the sea. When you doubted me, it sent me into a raving fit of...introspection. And so ever since, I have struggled for a way to prove my sincerity.
Maribelle: You thought yourself into unconsciousness for...me? Oh, Virion, that is so GALLANT!
Virion: Yes, I suppose it is rather, isn't it? I mean, now that you mention it. And the gods saw fit to answer my prayer in part, for now we are friends. But milady, it is not enough... I would be more than just a friend. I would be your companion—nay, your husband!
Maribelle: Oh... Will you ever give me peace if I refuse you? Heh... No. I don't think you will... Very well, gallant Virion. I accept your ring.
Virion: T-truly?!
Maribelle: You should know by now that I always mean what I say. But if we are to wed, you must pledge to put my happiness above all else. Agreed?
Virion: With every fiber of my being I agree! I shall think of nothing but! And when this hateful war is over, I shall welcome you to my home! Our celebration feast shall be the envy of nobles throughout the land!
Maribelle: Oh, I think not! Surely you know you must marry into MY house. We have no male heirs, and my father will insist on adopting my husband.
Virion: Y-you mean... We would have to live with your parents?! Er, th-that is to say... If milady so wishes...then of course I would be...honored? Ah ha ha! Ha ha. Haaaaa...

Maribelle: Oh, hello, Vaike...
Vaike: ...Wait, what? No fancy zinger? No swipes at your old friend Vaike? That ain't you at all! This must be some serious troubles, eh?
Maribelle: ......
Vaike: Aw, come on, Maribelle. What is it?
Maribelle: Vaike? Am I a...snob?
Vaike: ...Is THAT what you're worried about? That kinda talk never seemed to bother you before. Why now?
Maribelle: So I AM a snob! Oh, I knew it! I've been thinking a lot about myself and my behavior lately. And you know what? I'm a snob! A sad, inexcusable woman who is proud and vain beyond her station...
Vaike: Whoa, hold on now! Don't be hasty. I mean, sure, when ya first got here, ya wouldn't even look at us normal folk—
Maribelle: Yes, but you were all SO uncouth! What with the stench of the slum about you.
Vaike: Now, see, there it is again. And just when I was startin' to think better of ya.
Maribelle: Better of...me?

Maribelle: Enough! You've had your fun, but it simply is not done. Hand over the ill-gotten fruit.
Vaike: If ya want this apple, you'll have to earn it like I did—by rollin' the dice!
Maribelle: You wish me to gamble to show you that gambling is wrong? I believe you are missing the point...
Vaike: Well, all right. If you're too hoity-toity to toss dice with ol' Teach, then...
Maribelle: I am NOT hoipy toipy... Hatty totty... Oh, FINE. Just give me the dice.
Vaike: Har har! That's the spirit! But first, ya gotta say what YOU'RE wagering.
Maribelle: Oh, whatever. It does not matter. Whatever you like.

Maribelle: Then am I to assume you have renounced your gambling ways?
Vaike: Well, I wouldn't go so far as to say that. Tomorrow's another day, eh?
Maribelle: Fair enough. Still, I must admit...it was quite interesting to dine with the masses. And I ended up with an apple as well... Perhaps by losing, I actually won out!
Vaike: Heh, you really didn't mind slumming it down with us common filth, eh?
Maribelle: It was an absolutely fascinating experience! All the smallfolk are each so very different... I didn't even mind the smell, after a time.
Vaike: Yeah, it didn't exactly go like I planned... I thought I'd teach you a lesson about how people take lookin' down your nose at 'em. But after ten minutes you had 'em all charmed. They loved you like a sister! Maybe you ain't such a snob after all.
Maribelle: Perhaps not, tee hee. Oh but you simply MUST take me there again sometime. Do promise me, Vaike!
Vaike: Uh...sure? I guess?
Maribelle: Splendid! It's a date. Now I must find Chrom and deliver his apple.

Maribelle: Now don't gulp it down like a drowning fish! Sip gently... Let the palate savor it... You did say you wanted to acquire noble manners, correct?
Vaike: Somethin' like that, yeah. I figured if you can get along with commoners, I can learn to like nobles.
Maribelle: Your commitment is admirable. Now, what shall we have you do next? Hmmm...
Vaike: Hey, what about—
Maribelle: Tsk! I won our last wager, remember? Next we do whatever I say.
Vaike: Ya know, for someone so against it, you sure got fond of gambling quick!

Vaike: Wh-what? You mean this old thing? Aw, it's just—
Maribelle: It's a ring, is it not?
Vaike: Yeah, it's a ring. I ordered it special. Actually, it's... It's f-for you. ...Milady. It's...an engagement ring... You've got a sharp tongue, sure, but things are never dull when you're around... And old Teach just hates it when things are dull! ...So I was thinkin' maybe—
Maribelle: *Ahem* Vaike, I have decided how you can settle your debt from our last wager.
Vaike: ...Yeah?
Maribelle: Give me that ring, and make me the happiest woman in all of the realm! You may have lost the bet, but you have won my heart.

Maribelle: *Ahem* Thank you. You are too kind.
Stahl: I know it's not my concern, but please do take care of yourself, milady.
Maribelle: ...Oh, very well. I suppose you deserve some manner of explanation. For a long time now, my dream has been to join the royal judiciary. A fool's dream it seems, now that I know how much I must read and memorize...
Stahl: Yeesh! That sounds like a challenge. I envy your courage and dedication. Er, but is there any way I might help make your dream come true?
Maribelle: I suppose I could think of something. But why on earth would you care?
Stahl: Because I have no dreams of my own and want to live vicariously through yours? Er, but more seriously, you're my friend! I just want to help if I can.
Maribelle: Well, I have found myself on the hunt for certain legal documents...

Maribelle: Excellent! And in return for your help, I shall help you discover a dream of your own.

Maribelle: Right then! Don't think. Just give me the first answer that comes to mind... Would you rather rise in Chrom's army, or run the family apothecary?
Stahl: Hmm... Both sound quite enticing, truth be told.
Maribelle: Come now, sir! A true gentleman must have an opinion about such matters!
Stahl: Well, I've thought about it a lot. An awful lot, in fact. And I realized we have no idea how this world will turn out after the war. So perhaps I should see what is best for my friends before I decide. I've never been very good at working hard for my own benefit. If I'm not helping someone, I just can't seem to get interested.
Maribelle: Then there is nothing I can do to assist you.
Stahl: ...Huh. I expected you to tell me to get ahold of myself or something.
Maribelle: If you hadn't actually bothered to think about it, I would have been livid. But you've already chosen a path. You want to do what's best for those close to you. And once you discover a way, I'm sure you'll do your very best to make it happen. That IS a dream, Stahl. One that demands both courage and industry!
Stahl: Heh. I may not be much for grand causes, but I do like helping people out.
Maribelle: A bit overly humble for my tastes, but there's no doubting your honesty.
Stahl: Thank you! ...I think. In any case, right now my job is to help you and Chrom. So, what else can I do for you? Any more documents that need finding?

Maribelle: Well, now that you mention it, it is about time for a little break. You are getting very good at anticipating my every need! Since you started helping, I haven't once had to stay up all night. Stahl, I do believe you have a special genius for making people's lives easier!
Stahl: I enjoy making people from all walks of life happy, Maribelle. Although there is one person who I like making happier more than any other... And that's you.
Maribelle: Why, Stahl... I do believe that is a ring...
Stahl: If you haven't noticed, I've become completely smitten with you. Whether carrying books or copying obscure scrolls, my heart leaps for joy at every task. And that's why I want to be your husband.
Maribelle: Are you sure? It would mean a lot of hard work...
Stahl: Hard work? Pshaw! If it's done in your service, it would be a joy!
Maribelle: Why, Stahl, you certainly know how to sweep a lady off her feet... Very well. I would be honored to wear your ring.
Stahl: Then from now on, my dream shall be YOUR dream!

Kellam: I wasn't sneaking. And I didn't leave my armor laying around. I'm actually still wearing it.
Maribelle: Yes, yes, yes. I should have known you were somewhere inside all that steel plate. Speaking of which, I've been meaning to ask you about that... Why is it that you wear such a ridiculously enormous suit of armor? Is it a hand-me-down? Was your mother hoping you'd grow into it?
Kellam: I suppose it is a smidge bigger than the standard... But I don't see much need to go changing things now. It protects me well enough, and I'm plenty agile in a fight.

Kellam: When I first joined the Shepherds, I was terrified I wouldn't be able to fight. I thought I'd be useless in battle and end up being left behind and forgotten. Truth be told, I was really close to quitting and just going home. Not that anyone would have noticed...
Maribelle: ......
Kellam: But just when things were at their lowest, this armor arrived from home. The whole village had pitched in to make it because they were so proud of me. Imagine! The first boy to make it out, and now serving the prince no less!
Maribelle: I didn't realize your story was so...inspiring.
Kellam: This armor reminded me of the hopes and dreams of the people back home. And even if they got my size wrong, I'm going to keep wearing it!
Maribelle: Yes, well... Perhaps I was wrong to chastise you without knowing the circumstances. I pray we can put this little incident behind us?
Kellam: Oh, of course, Maribelle. I know you were just worried about me.

Kellam: Say, Maribelle? I wanted to thank you for your help on the battlefield. If you hadn't covered my back, I wouldn't have been able to protect everyone else.
Maribelle: Not at all. Truth be told, it's a great comfort having you at my side. You pop up out of nowhere when I'm most in need, then melt away into the shadows. You're like one of those faithful sidekicks in the stories Mother used to read.
Kellam: Um, but I was standing right beside you the entire—
Maribelle: Yes, well, whatever. In any case, I'm developing a much better opinion of you. It's so inspiring to see a poor indigent like yourself fight for his village folk.
Kellam: Inspiring? Me? Oh no, milady. I'm just a simple farmer trying to do his best.
Maribelle: In the future, when this beastly war is over, I hope to become a judge advocate. I would be the first woman to ever hold such a post, so it will not be easy. However, I have no intention of giving up, no matter how hard the fight may be.
Kellam: That sure is brave of you! I couldn't do anything like that.
Maribelle: Oh, really? I don't know about that. I think you do it every single day. If anyone has foresworn the easy path and chosen the hard road, it's you.
Kellam: Oh, I don't know. I think I just like protecting folk...

S Support

Kellam: Maribelle?
Maribelle: Yes?
Kellam: This is kind of sudden, but I was thinking about your dream for life after the war. Anyway, I was thinking I might be able to help out if I was...around.
Maribelle: How odd that you would say such a thing! I have been entertaining the same thoughts. In truth, I've grown rather fond of having you at my side.
Kellam: Oh, I'm so glad you think that way!
Maribelle: You'll make a fine butler with a little training! Maybe a valet in the worst case. We've been lacking one of those ever since poor Mr. Yates went off to prison...
Kellam: Um... N-no. That's not... I don't want to come work for you.
Maribelle: Work for me? My darling, the servants in my house are like family! You get all the major feast days off, and we even switch places on the solstice!
Kellam: I want to MARRY you, consarnit! That's why I got you this ring!
Maribelle: ...Oh my dear good heavens.
Kellam: I know you'd be marrying below your station and all, but I don't care. If you want money or crowns or whatever, then you can go find some other man. But if you want a man who'll love you to the end of his days, then take me.
Maribelle: *Ahem!* Yes, well, when you put it that way... I suppose we could make the titles work. Name you a lesser duke or something.
Kellam: So is that a yes?
Maribelle: Yes, Kellam. I will be your wife. But you are NOT wearing that armor to our wedding!

Maribelle: Lon'qu! Just what do you think you were doing in that last battle?
Lon'qu: Stabbing people.
Maribelle: I was REFERRING to your insistence on charging off faster than I can follow! It's lovely that you're so eager to bathe in blood, but I must insist you match my pace.
Lon'qu: Leave me, woman.
Maribelle: Ha! Spoken like a true cad! I've heard tell of your little "issue" with women, but you'll just have to get over it.
Lon'qu: This is no problem of yours. If I bleed, it is due to my own weakness. Each cut is a lesson. Each scar a reminder.
Maribelle: Oh, and just think how much you'll learn when you die in a heap on the battlefield! It's my job to keep your blood inside you, and that requires cooperation.
Lon'qu: I can patch my own wounds. Now leave me!

Maribelle: Ah ha! There you are!

Lon'qu: I've intensified my training so that such a thing won't happen again. Now stop following me.
Maribelle: Not so fast!
Lon'qu: That's my arm. You're touching my arm. ...Please stop touching my arm.
Maribelle: Not until you furnish me with a reason for this suicidal stubbornness!
Lon'qu: Enough! I yield! Just remove your paw from me.
Maribelle: PAW?! Why, you inbred, foul-tempered, lowborn gutter rat! Are you truly so averse to women that you must insult them at every turn?
Lon'qu: I...do not function well around them. The closer they get, the worse it is. I beg of you, keep your distance.
Maribelle: So that's the reason you've been running off whenever I try to heal you!
Lon'qu: I mean no offense, though I know it is taken. It would be best if you simply accepted it.
Maribelle: Absolutely not.
Lon'qu: Why not?
Maribelle: Because it's unacceptable! You always speak of growing stronger, yet here's a glaring weakness to correct. At this rate, a little girl could simply walk up and kill you with a spoon. I won't have you risking your life over such a foolish thing.
Lon'qu: ......
Maribelle: I know it's not my place, but I think—
Lon'qu: No. You are not wrong. This is a weakness I must correct.

Maribelle: You put on quite an impressive show today, Lon'qu.
Lon'qu: Hmph.
Maribelle: I would have been in a terrible bind had you not been close by to defend me. Though you would have been in a similar fix had I not healed you afterward. Regardless, it was quite chivalrous of you. And proof you've overcome your problem! This is a celebratory day indeed. Perhaps you'll join me for a cup of—
Lon'qu: TOO CLOSE! Er, I mean... Please step back.
Maribelle: I'm sorry, did you just shriek at me like some kind of ill-mannered lout?
Lon'qu: My problem is not gone. It's better in combat, but... At times like this, I can't... I can't. I'm sorry.
Maribelle: I see.
Lon'qu: Go on. Laugh at the craven.
Maribelle: I'll do no such thing! I owe you all the more knowing you defended me despite the discomfort. I should dearly like to help you work through this issue.
Lon'qu: I don't see how.
Maribelle: Oh, there has to be SOME way. Hmm, perhaps it's best to have you jump in headfirst. I could bring you to an establishment where a pack of lovely ladies wait on you?
Lon'qu: Pass. ...Wait. How would you know about such a place?
Maribelle: Rude! A woman must have her secrets.
Lon'qu: Perhaps there is another way. A normal way.
Maribelle: Quite right! And I won't rest until I've come up with it, my dear. Anything for a friend, I always say.
Lon'qu: Are we friends?
Maribelle: Would you disagree?
Lon'qu: Most friends stand closer than twenty paces from one another. But yes. I would like to be friends.

Maribelle: Whenever you're ready, Lon'qu.
Lon'qu: R-right...
Maribelle: You're almost there. Stay focused.
Lon'qu: ...Ngh!
Maribelle: Excellent! You finally managed to touch me. And with almost no simpering to boot. Mmm, your hand runs cool.
Lon'qu: Your cheek is...warm.
Maribelle: Let's break here for today, yes? Steadily decreasing the distance day by day seems to be working.
Lon'qu: I expected you to fill a tiger pit with women and push me in.
Maribelle: Gentlemen have likened me to many things before, Lon'qu, but never a sharp spike. Besides, you asked for a "normal" method. I think this one is quite reasonable.
Lon'qu: It is. But we've been at it for so long, and I've only just managed to touch your cheek. I have taken so much of your time.
Maribelle: Oh, posh! It's no bother at all! ...Still, I suppose you have a point. Perhaps we ought to make arrangements for the long term, mmm?
Lon'qu: Meaning...?
Maribelle: Well, I could continue to train you indefinitely if we were married.
Lon'qu: You have no obligation to do that.
Maribelle: Gods, but you can be dreadfully dense at times. Do you think I would propose marriage out of a sense of obligation?
Lon'qu: Er, no.
Maribelle: So then! We've now established how I feel about you, albeit somewhat painfully... Perhaps you would return the favor.
Lon'qu: ...... I...feel something for you as well, though I do not have the words for it. I yearn to keep you safe in my arms until the breath leaves my body. And yet, I can barely touch you. It is shameful. I have no right to ask your hand.
Maribelle: Oh, Lon'qu, there's no hurry. We have the rest of our lives! And YOU, my dear, are a catch worth waiting for.
Lon'qu: Perhaps we could practice one more time. I would very much like to hold your hand as we walk to town. We will need a ring, after all.
Maribelle: With you, my dear, I would walk anywhere. Now, get those cold hands over here!

Maribelle: The tea is ready, Ricken.
Ricken: ...Mmm, that's good. Thanks, Maribelle.
Maribelle: It's the least I can do after you saved me from those Plegian scoundrels, dear boy. A single cup of tea will scarce repay the debt I owe you!
Ricken: Aw, you don't owe me.
Maribelle: Ha! Without you, tea would be leaking from sword holes on every side of me! This debt must be paid, especially as we're both members of Ylisse's old high houses. We may not be as close now as in ages past, but we're peers nonetheless. If I can ever be of help, you need but ask.
Ricken: Th-that's...
Maribelle: Whatever is the matter, dear?
Ricken: I'm just surprised to hear you say so, is all.
Maribelle: Come now! You saved my life! Surely you don't think me the sort to forget a debt?
Ricken: No, not that! The part about our houses. My house isn't like it used to be. ...Actually, we're dead broke.
Maribelle: Ah, yes. That. Well, the recent financial struggles of your house are hardly—
Ricken: I was just surprised to hear you call us peers. That's all. Plus, look at me! I'm hardly an aristocrat.
Maribelle: And what else could you be, mmm? A noble's honor isn't measured by size of purse, but quality of character. And anyone who would risk his life for another has a noble spirit indeed! Your family is every bit an equal to mine, and hang those who say differently!

Ricken: What, this? Ha ha! Oh, this is nothing! Just a...flesh wound.
Maribelle: And what if this "flesh wound" were to get infected? Mmm? What then? You must stop taking unnecessary risks! ...Such as fighting at all.
Ricken: What?! What's THAT supposed to mean?
Maribelle: Putting someone so young in the line of fire is the worst kind of cowardice. Yes, you saved me, but you could have died a hundred times along the way! Well, never again! I shall demand Chrom find a way to spare you further combat. I should have done this sooner, dear boy. Oh, I hope you can forgive my—
Ricken: Don't you dare! ...And don't call me a boy! I can handle myself in a fight, Maribelle. You should know that better than anyone.
Maribelle: Now see here! No one doubts your abilities, least of all me. But I would be devastated beyond comfort if anything happened to you.
Ricken: I have this power for better or worse, and I know how to fight. Don't ask me to sit by while my friends, my family, and my country are in danger.
Maribelle: I suppose if you're truly certain, it is not my place to stop you. I only ask that you don't stop me from striving to keep you safe. TELL me when you're hurt, Ricken! Let me use my gifts for you as well. You'll keep no one safe by playing the stoic.
Ricken: All right.

Maribelle: This war grows more intense with each passing battle.
Ricken: I'm exhausted as well, but if we give up now, all of Ylisse will suffer. We have to stay strong for them.

Ricken: You weren't wrong. ...Not totally, anyway. I AM young, and I DID hide an injury. I'm trying to be more careful. I really am.
Maribelle: Good. You tell me the moment you get even a scratch, are we clear?
Ricken: You may not believe this, but I have no desire to suffer a terrible injury.
Maribelle: Yes, well. So long as that's understood. By the by, I procured a delicious blend of tea in town the other day. If we both manage to survive the coming battle, I promise to share it with you.
Ricken: Ha! That sounds delicious! Just make sure you're careful too, all right? I'm not the only person on the battlefield that people care about.

Ricken: That's really kind, but not necessary. It's not like we eat crumbs off the floor. And while your coin might repair the house, our name would still be sullied. We have to do this ourselves.
Maribelle: Well, yes, naturally. But...
Ricken: Although, I've been thinking. I know this may sound odd, but... I have a proposal of my own.
Maribelle: Oh?
Ricken: I want you to have this.
Maribelle: ...This is a signet ring. And it bears your house crest! Ricken, I cannot accept this. Such a token is best reserved for your future wife.
Ricken: Yes. I know.
Maribelle: Oh, moldy caviar! How could I have been so daft? It seems you and I are proposing the same thing.
Ricken: Wait, you WANT to get married? I thought you'd say I was far too—
Maribelle: Of course! As you say, a family's name can only be restored from within.
Ricken: I don't give a whit for my name, Maribelle! I'll only marry you if...if you love me.
Maribelle: I believe that I do, yes. It seemed a bit... Well, unusual, I suppose, so I thought if I covered it somehow...
Ricken: You made up the thing about my family name because you were embarrassed?
Maribelle: Perish the thought, Ricken! I'm deeply concerned for your family's honor. Besides, do you think me the sort who would marry a man she didn't love?
Ricken: Oh, Maribelle! I've been in love with you since the moment we met! I'll make you happy! I swear it!
Maribelle: R-really? From the moment we met?
Ricken: I nearly went mad when I heard you'd been taken captive! Chrom tried to stop me from going, but I wouldn't hear of it!
Maribelle: I don't know what to say... You have become a man with strength equal to the passion of his convictions. And now I'll have the pleasure of sharing tea with that man for the rest of my life.
Ricken: Then prepare the kettle, my love!

Maribelle: Now see here, Gaius. What do you think you're playing at, hovering around me like a persistent fly? It disturbs me to see your leering visage, particularly when I'm in the midst of battle.
Gaius: I'm sorry, Twinkles. I just thought... Well, if I can atone for what I did, then maybe—
Maribelle: Maybe what? I might FORGIVE you? We might become oh-such-good friends? You broke into the royal treasury with the intent of stealing from the realm. And then you did it AGAIN!
Gaius: Look, I know I did wrong, and I feel lousy about it. Gods strike me down if I don't.
Maribelle: Ha! You must be a stone idiot if you think I'll believe a thing you have to say! Or have you forgotten the first time you were caught raiding the treasury? You claimed my FATHER was behind it! My poor, decent, innocent father! He was hauled in front of the magistrate and almost put to death because of you!
Gaius: Actually, the thing about that is... L-look, I said some things I'm not proud of in an attempt to avoid the noose. But I'm a changed man now, and if you'll just let me, I'm sure I can—
Maribelle: Oh, enough. If I want a dog and pony show, I shall attend a carnival.

Maribelle: I needed you alive, unfortunately. There is something I must ask you.
Gaius: I'll answer if I can.
Maribelle: I was rereading transcripts of my father's trial, and something struck me as...strange. Tell me, and speak the truth: Where exactly did you first hear my father's name?
Gaius: Well, er...
Maribelle: My father is a rich and powerful man, but rather unknown outside the nobility. Which begs the question... Why did you choose to accuse him? How did you even know to do so? I can think of only one reason, but I would hear it from your lips... Did someone threaten you, Gaius? Did they force you to name my father?
Gaius: They said... They said I had to do it or else they were going to...
Maribelle: Kill you?
Gaius: No, Twinkles. Not me.
Maribelle: Then who? Who was threatened?
Gaius: Look, it doesn't matter now. Bloke told me to name your father and I did. End of story.
Maribelle: And who was this scoundrel who had such a terrifying hold over you?
Gaius: You're not going to let this go, are you? All right. I suppose I should start at the beginning...

A Support

Maribelle: I am in your debt, Gaius.
Gaius: You are?
Maribelle: Yes. I wrote down everything you told me and sent it to my father. Now he will be able to turn the tables on the dastards who plotted against him.
Gaius: Well, I... I hope it works out for him.
Maribelle: If it does, it will be thanks to your willingness to tell the truth. So again, thank you.
Gaius: Don't thank me, Twinkles. I don't deserve it. It was a cowardly thing I did, and a day doesn't go by that I haven't regretted it. I even sent a letter after the trial, but too little, too late, I reckon.
Maribelle: Wait, that was you?! That letter rescued my father from the headsman's axe!
Gaius: I'm pleased to hear it. But I should have done more.
Maribelle: Gaius, you saved my father's life! Admittedly, your actions put him in danger in the first place... But still! You wrote that letter knowing the schemers would try to hunt you down!
Gaius: That wasn't a worry. I'm pretty good at running away from things.
Maribelle: I've been very unfair toward you, Gaius. I spoke before I knew all the facts.
Gaius: Hey, I'm the one who broke into your royal treasury. ...Twice.
Maribelle: Thief you may be, but you are more honest than half the so-called nobles I know. But, there is still one thing you haven't told me... When the plotters secured your testimony, who did they threaten? It must be someone important to you.
Gaius: Nope. I'd never met her. Never even saw her, in fact. All I knew is that she was a young girl who didn't deserve to die. Even if it meant sending her father off to swing.
Maribelle: W-wait. Those blackguard nobles threatened to kill ME?!
Gaius: Yep.
Maribelle: You testified against Father to save my life...
Gaius: Seemed the best option of a bad lot at the time. And now that I know you, I'd make the same decision a dozen times over.

Maribelle: Why, Gaius. I couldn't help but notice you were fighting alongside me again.
Gaius: Sorry, Maribelle. Just let me know if I ever get in the way.
Maribelle: Not at all. I was grateful for the help. ...And you DID look rather gallant. But Gaius, you mustn't keep trying to atone for the past. All has been forgiven.
Gaius: I appreciate you saying that. But I'd like to keep on protecting you as best I can. I saved your life once, and... I don't know. I guess that kind of thing grows on a man.
Maribelle: Then I hope you never leave my side. I say that as a soldier...and a woman.
Gaius: Crivens. Th-that's mighty kind of you to say, but...
Maribelle: Tell me, Gaius. Do you feel the same way? ...About me, I mean.
Gaius: Actually, I've been having the same thoughts. I even went ahead and made this ring. I don't wanna seem forward or nothing, but since we're talking and all, I thought—

Maribelle: Beautiful? Why, goodness me... Argh! Do not try to change the subject, you silver-tongued weasel! I've a most serious matter to discuss with you.
Gregor: Gregor is listening.
Maribelle: You took a loaf of bread from the pantry again, didn't you?
Gregor: Yes. Food portions Gregor receives is not enough to maintain mighty physique. If Gregor is fainting from hunger, Shepherd ladies will be plunging into despair, no?
Maribelle: Good heavens, but you are a self-deluded nitwit.
Gregor: Is true! Is happening all the time.
Maribelle: Are all lowborn sellswords truly this inane, or is it just you?
Gregor: Eh? Gregor is not catching that last part. You must say again.
Maribelle: Listen to me, fool. The Shepherds have strict rules about such things. Food is rationed for a reason. You can't just go willy-nilly breaking... Sir! *ahem* ...Are you listening to me?!
Gregor: O-of course! Gregor is hearing pretty lady! Do not be rule breaking near Willy, yes?
Maribelle: A lack of discipline leads to disorder, and disorder leads to wickedness. Innocuous though they may seem, your acts could cause the ruin of our whole army.

Maribelle: You think I'm exaggerating, don't you? One small crack is all it takes to bring down the dam that holds back chaos.

Maribelle: I am a woman of fair mind and breeding. I believe in what is right and proper. And I will not abide rogues who flaunt the rules that make us strong.

Gregor: Gregor was making with the killing. Why? Is problem with that, too?
Maribelle: You charged ahead without waiting for your allies.
Gregor: But we are achieving great victory, yes? So all is being well if ends okay.
Maribelle: If everyone thought the same, where would this army be? Discipline would collapse, and we'd be nothing but a disorganized mob.
Gregor: But Gregor did charging ahead for sake of noble Maribelle.
Maribelle: Er, you did?
Gregor: Gregor spies foes hidden in thicket, yes? They wait to ambush most beautiful fighter. So Gregor gallantly leaps into fray to be defending the Lady Maribelle.
Maribelle: Well, that...certainly goes a long way toward explaining your actions. When you saw me exposed to mortal threat, you had no choice but to hurl yourself—
Gregor: Oh no! Gregor is doing the same for any pretty girl. Not just Maribelle.
Maribelle: Ah. *ahem* Y-yes, of course. I knew that. In any case, I forgive you. However, we still have rules, and they must not be broken for any reason.

Gregor: No?
Maribelle: Even if I wanted to be rescued by you, which, to be honest, was the case—
Gregor: Oh ho!
Maribelle: I cannot allow myself to rely on someone who continuously breaks our army's rules. It must not and will not happen henceforth!
Gregor: Er, yes. About that. Gregor is sorry he is stealing many pies from kitchen. ...And that he takes lock of Chrom's hair to sell to local gossip leaflet.
Maribelle: *Sigh*
Gregor: Do not sigh! Gregor is actually much better than before, yes? Is because Maribelle is scolding Gregor so much that he tries harder to follow rules. Is making Gregor better soldier and allows him to be helping comrades, no? He is just not perfect yet. These things, they take time.
Maribelle: So it's thanks to my efforts that you're able to lend me aid?
Gregor: Yes, you are understanding Gregor!

Libra: Indeed. And yourself?
Maribelle: I make it a part of each morning.
Libra: A commendable endeavor. Might I join you?
Maribelle: But of course.
Libra: Come to think of it, I fear I haven't yet properly thanked you.

Libra: Forgotten, have you? It was an all-too-common happening for me, I'm afraid. I was approached by a pack of drunkards who had taken me for a woman. I suspect they still feel the sting of the tongue-lashing you gave them now. Not to further endanger my masculinity, but you were my knight in shining armor.
Maribelle: Ahh, yes. I recall it now. I was given quite the dressing-down myself back at camp! A number of others thought it rash of me.

Maribelle: I acted mostly to quell my own indignation at those boors, I assure you. But if I was of some small service to you as well, so much the better. Your words help bolster the strength of my convictions.
Libra: Then you are most welcome!

Maribelle: Hmm... A difficult quandary, to be sure.
Libra: Is something on your mind, Maribelle? I can hear the gears in your head turning from here.
Maribelle: I've been reading a chronicle of court cases as a part of my studies of late. The decision in one such case has left me quite conflicted.
Libra: Might I ask what manner of trial it was that has you so vexed?
Maribelle: A child cast out by her parents was driven by hunger to steal from an aristocrat.
Libra: Orphan or not, it seems a clear enough matter. Regardless of the reason, all crimes against a noble house are capital offenses.
Maribelle: Yet should a noble commit the same crime to the commoner, the sentence is light. Surely that cannot be considered justice!
Libra: Then you would have the laws apply equally to all, regardless of station?
Maribelle: This is not a matter of inviting the local squalor to a dinner party, sir! All must be equal in the eyes of the law, else we cannot claim them fair.
Libra: All, you say? Even the unwanted children of lowborn parents?
Maribelle: Naturally.
Libra: I must confess, I never thought to hear someone espouse such views.
Maribelle: Have I said anything so shocking?
Libra: Quite the contrary. Your words are warm and fair. I feel proud to have met so pure a person. Redeemed, even.

Maribelle: I've made up my mind, Libra. When this war is won, I shall start another.
Libra: A war, Maribelle?
Maribelle: Indeed. I aim to fight for the rights of all citizens as a minister of the law!
Libra: Someone of your elevated station would fight on behalf of the meager masses?
Maribelle: Of course. I'll start in Ylisse, then take the fight to Ferox, Plegia, and everywhere else. I'll fight each battle until none suffer under the burden of an unequal body of law.
Libra: Bending other kingdoms to your will is no mean task, even with an army at your back. To do so with diplomacy alone is a monumental undertaking, Maribelle.
Maribelle: I'm well aware of the madness of it, but my mind is set firm.
Libra: Why would you take up such a colossal burden of your own free will?
Maribelle: Because of your words, Libra. The joy and the pride they stirred in me. You thanked me for something that ought to be a given, and you said you felt redeemed. If my efforts could bring redemption to more people, no burden is too great.
Libra: I merely spoke my mind. I never thought to impart such grand or weighty meaning.
Maribelle: Yet your words changed my life just the same. And for that, you have my thanks.

Libra: Maribelle, about what you said before... You're certain that is the life you desire?

Maribelle: Yes, and utterly uncharming. I'm well aware.
Libra: That stubborn lack of charm is just another part of your considerable charm.
Maribelle: My, my. You've a gift for flattery.
Libra: I assure you, I'm entirely sincere.
Maribelle: Libra...?
Libra: Oh, Maribelle... Will you marry me?
Maribelle: You can't talk me out of my mad crusade, so you'd keep me locked up at home?!
Libra: Perish the thought! I wish to fight your crusade with you.
Maribelle: If that's a jest, I'm not laughing. And if it isn't, I'm laughing even less!
Libra: More's the pity, as your laugh is music to my ears! But if it's any aid in convincing you of my sincerity, I procured this.
Maribelle: That ring... It's beautiful.
Libra: Will you do me the honor of accepting it?
Maribelle: ...... This marks a second time your words have changed the course of my life.
Libra: A change for the better, one hopes?
Maribelle: No doubt. If you would promise yourself to me, I would be thrilled to do the same.
Libra: I am yours until my last breath.

Olivia: ONE and TWO and THREE... One more pirouette aaaaaand... Hold for applause! Yay, Olivia! Woooo! Standing ovation! Olivia's the best! Marry me, Olivia!
Maribelle: You dance rather well.
Olivia: Eeeek! Maribelle! How long have you been standing there?!
Maribelle: From the beginning, darling. I didn't mean to spy, but your dance was so wonderful! I just couldn't bring myself to interrupt.
Olivia: Oh, er, gosh. Thanks. I mean, I'm still working on the rough bits, so... Oh, gods, this is SO embarrassing.
Maribelle: Ha! Save the false modesty for your social betters, my dear. A working-class girl like you needs confidence above all else.
Olivia: Er, right... Okay. Thanks, I think?
Maribelle: Good heavens. Are all lowborn folk this skeptical? How can you be so bold one minute and such a quivering mess the next?
Olivia: Wh-what do you mean?
Maribelle: When you dance, you're so...daring! You stand tall and proud, completely unafraid to meet the watcher's eye. You exhibit great strength and dignity.
Olivia: Oh...b-b-but... Argh, stop it! This is so embarrassing!
Maribelle: And yet when you stop, you become this jabbering, bashful mess of insecurities. I want to see more of Olivia the Bold and less of Olivia the Mouse! Got it?!
Olivia: Oh, er. Yes, I'm sure you're right... I guess. But—
Maribelle: Ugh. Very well. If you won't do it yourself, I'll just have to aid you. You'll grow a backbone if I have to drag you there kicking and screaming!
Olivia: B-backbone?
Maribelle: Pluck! Grit! Dignity! Resolve! Pick any noun you like! Hmm... I'll have to think about the best way to whip you into shape. This may take a bit. I'll let you know when the first lesson is ready.

Olivia: Oh, already? That was quick. So, er, what do I have to do?
Maribelle: I want you to initiate a conversation with a gentleman.
Olivia: Pfft! Is that all? That'll be easy! I talk to my fellow soldiers all the ti—
Maribelle: I said a gentleman! Not some knuckle-dragging oaf from the sticks! I want you to go to town, approach the first NOBLE you see, and make his acquaintance.
Olivia: Huh?! N-no way! I can't talk to a stranger!
Maribelle: What you think you can or can't do is irrelevant. You simply must do it. I know it seems like I'm pushing you into the deep end, but it's a proven method. It's called shock therapy, and it's the latest thing in all the finest courts.
Olivia: B-b-b-but...
Maribelle: Oh, stop with the pathetic stuttering! Look, this is no picnic for me, either. I did a lot of research for your sake. Are you going to waste all my efforts? You DO want a backbone, don't you?
Olivia: W-well, I guess it wouldn't be so bad...if you came with me?
Maribelle: Darling, of course I shall accompany you! How else will I know if the deed is done? And this being your first time, a little moral support might be beneficial. So! As soon as you are ready, we shall set out for town.
Olivia: I c-can't believe she's making me do this... *gulp*

Maribelle: Well, it seems you made friends with a gentleman.
Olivia: Yes, and he bought us all that tea! Plus those diamond-tipped canes. I don't know. I felt a bit guilty.
Maribelle: Tsk! Such things are a small price to pay for the company of two charming beauties!
Olivia: But boy, Chrom sure was angry when he found out, wasn't he? He said the Shepherds shouldn't be picking up strangers all over town.
Maribelle: I TOLD him we could handle any scallywags that came along, but he wouldn't listen. He said the sight of Shepherds brawling in the streets would hurt his cause. As if I'd gouge out someone's eyes like a common gutter rat! Honestly... Oh, well. I'm sorry, Olivia. Perhaps this was a fool's errand after all.
Olivia: Oh, gosh, no! Don't apologize! You were only trying to help.
Maribelle: Actually, there's one other thing I should apologize for.
Olivia: Oh?
Maribelle: Remember the shock therapy idea? The one that led to all this? Well, apparently this is an exercise meant for...gentlemen only.
Olivia: So all those lines you made me say were...
Maribelle: Completely inappropriate for women of our station, yes. ...Especially the wolf whistles. ...And the bit about his legs "going all the way up."
Olivia: ...... Heh. Ha ha. Ha ha ha ha!
Maribelle: What's so funny?
Olivia: It's just that we were SO serious! We spent all that time memorizing lines! And it was completely inappropriate! Ha ha ha! How embarrassing...
Maribelle: It WAS rather embarrassing, wasn't it?
Olivia: Well, your methods were wrong, but your lesson still worked. Plus now I have this really nice cane! Say, maybe we should sneak into town and meet another noble! Chrom won't have to—
Maribelle: Olivia!
Olivia: Hee hee! I'm just joking. Besides, I'd rather hang out with you than some stuffy noble gentleman. So then, would YOU care to join me for tea, O fairest of nobles? Methinks heaven should count its angels, for there is one standing in front of me! Those pantaloons must be made of mirrors, for I can see myse—
Maribelle: ...That's enough, Olivia. It's time you started forgetting those lines. ...... Still, I DO enjoy tea. And it would be churlish of me to refuse your invitation. Yes, then. Let us enjoy a cup of tea as newfound friends!

Maribelle: I am so weary of this gods-forsaken war. Every time we turn around, Risen are tearing some poor village apart. Ah, I fear this will all get darker before we finally spy the dawn. And yet, look at this flower still finding a way to bloom amidst the devastation. *Sniff* It brings a tear to the eye to see such a fragile thing struggle to the light. What a good flower you are. Stay strong now, little one.
Henry: Hi there, Maribelle! You all right?
Maribelle: ACK! Henry?! H-how long have you been standing there?
Henry: Oh, I dunno! Since before you launched into that soliloquy, anyway.
Maribelle: Eavesdropping is a shameful habit, sir. And on a lady, no less! Were you birthed in a barn?
Henry: Aw, but it's fun listening to you mumble! You say all kinds of crazy stuff. I really liked the last bit where you started chatting with the flower.
Maribelle: I was NOT chatting with the flower. I was remarking on the... That is to say... Oh, what's the use? You've caught me in the act, and that's that. Go on, then! Point and laugh. Take this chance to mock your social betters.
Henry: Mock you? Why? I do the same thing all the time. ...Hmm? What's that, flower? *mumble, mumble* ...Ooh! Okay, I'll tell her.
Maribelle: What in the WORLD are you doing?
Henry: Talking to the flower. She says she's very grateful that you spoke to her. Also, she says she'll stay strong as long as you do, too.
Maribelle: I appreciate the gesture, sir, but you don't have to feign madness for my sake.
Henry: I'm not feigning anything. I'm just really in touch with the natural world. I can talk to any living thing you want. Trees. Flowers. Maggots. Ooooooh... Maaaggots...
Maribelle: That is a remarkable talent, if a shade disturbing.

Henry: Hi, Maribelle. You look like a cat ate your favorite canary.
Maribelle: *Sniff* It's a fate far worse, I fear. My flower friend has withered and died.
Henry: Aww, guess it hasn't rained around here for weeks now, huh?
Maribelle: Henry, can you still...talk to her?
Henry: Nope! Only living stuff.
Maribelle: Yes, of course. How silly of me. She's dead, never to bloom again... It truly makes a woman think. Someday, on the battlefield, such could be my fate.
Henry: Basically. I mean, flowers die, people die... That's just how the world works.
Maribelle: Even so, the idea that I could be gone tomorrow? Or in the hour? Ghastly! We try to ignore the ever-present threat of death, but it's always there. And when you finally think about it, it's a black yawning pit of utter terror!
Henry: Meh, not to me. Everyone kicks the bucket at some point, so why fret?
Maribelle: Perhaps it's not so much death I fear as the pain of dying.
Henry: See, now that I can understand. But get this—I've got a special curse ready, see? Been working on it for a while now. If you're mortally wounded, it kills you off before you suffer any pain! Just...poof. Off ya go!
Maribelle: I see. And is this something you could perhaps cast on me?
Henry: Sure, yeah. Heck, I can do it right now if you say the word. Then you'll never have to fear the old boneyard again!
Maribelle: I declare, Henry, you have the strangest ways of putting people's minds at ease. And yet, I'm rather tempted to accept your offer.

Maribelle: Henry, do you have a moment?
Henry: What is it?
Maribelle: I've been watching you in our recent battles, and I noticed something...odd. No matter how fierce the fight becomes, you always have a smile on your face.
Henry: Yep. I love fighting! Pshew! Pshew!
Maribelle: But as a mage, you go into battle with little armor and are often the first one targeted. You could be injured or killed in an eyeblink, and yet still you smile!
Henry: It's 'cause I'm not scared, Maribelle. Fighting is actually pretty simple. I just have to kill the other guy before he has a chance to kill me.
Maribelle: Henry, sometimes I find it very difficult to understand you.
Henry: Yeah, I suppose most animals are supposed to fear death and stuff.
Maribelle: Animals...
Henry: But I'll tell you one thing—there's no reason to be sad about death. Everyone in this army is going to croak sooner or later—it's just a matter of when. And at the end of it all, we'll be reunited again on the other side.
Maribelle: You think so?
Henry: ...Oh, wait! Holy crows! I just had a really weird thought. That means all the foes we kill are gonna be over there, too. Aw, rats. I'm gonna have to kill them all over again!

Maribelle: Henry, weren't you injured in the last battle?
Henry: Who, me? No, I don't think so. Didn't see any blood, at least. And believe me, I always look reeeally closely.
Maribelle: That's good to hear. The part about being unharmed, at least.
Henry: Why the sudden concern?
Maribelle: Remember when you told me that you're not afraid of dying? Well, I've been watching you in battle, and I see it's no idle boast! But the more I watch, the more concerned I become. I fear you may throw your life away on some rash act and that I might...lose you.
Henry: It's a definite possibility! We're fighting a war, after all.
Maribelle: Do not make light of my fears! I couldn't bear to lose you because—
Henry: Because then I couldn't cast that curse that lets you die without pain?
Maribelle: No! It's not about that! I mean, yes, I WOULD miss that, but it's not the reason.
Henry: Okay. So what is? Oh, wait! Lemme guess! You worry I wouldn't finish my toenail collection?
Maribelle: It's because I'm in love with you, you idiot man!
Henry: Huh?!
Maribelle: Oh, my stars and garters. Did I really say that out loud?
Henry: Yeah, you said it out loud. Loudly! But don't be embarrassed, Maribelle. I think you're swell, too.
Maribelle: Oh, Henry. Is this true?
Henry: Yep. I want to be your knight in shining armor. ...Blood-red shining armor! In fact, I'm hoping that we can spend the rest of our lives together. Which I guess is another way of saying that we should get married. Yay! ...Wait. Aw, heck. I don't even have a ring ready or anything.
Maribelle: The ring can wait, silly. The answer is still yes.

Maribelle: Very well, then. I shall take it upon myself to instruct you.

Donnel: ...And he shall be sentenced to no fewer'n one or greater'n ten years' imprisonment. ...'Lessun he give the goat back, that is.
Maribelle: Correct AND verbatim! ...Well, except for the awkward grammar. Have you really got the entire legal code memorized?
Donnel: Yes, ma'am! Spent every bit of free time I had on it, I did!
Maribelle: All on this one book?
Donnel: You said it was important to ya, so it'd be rude for me to sit on it! 'Sides, it's mighty nice of ya to teach me, so I owe it to ya to do my part.
Maribelle: I must confess, Donnel, I did not expect you to take to the task with such zeal. I fear I have underestimated you, and for that I apologize. I see now that you are a diamond in the rough. ...Very rough, it's true, but a diamond nonetheless! I shall make it my cause to see you polished into a sparkling paragon of a gentleman!

Donnel: You do?
Maribelle: Yes. And now that we're finished praising one another, shall we return to our lesson?
Donnel: Oh. So you sayin' all that was just another part of "high society learnin'"?
Maribelle: No, I spoke sincerely. But now, for whatever reason, I no longer feel self-conscious.
Donnel: Me neither!

Lucina: Mother, guess what? I found a wonderful dress in the town market.
Maribelle: Oh, do go on!
Lucina: It was gorgeous! I thought it'd be just perfect for you, so I bought it. I was thinking you could try a different style for once.
Maribelle: Why, Lucina! What a lovely surprise! Now let me get a look at this gorgeous... Er...dress? Oh dear. I've never seen so many...unusual colors and shapes in one piece of clothing.
Lucina: I know! It's very modern. See all the giant pink polka dots? If you look carefully, you'll see that each one is a portrait of Emmeryn herself! I wager when Father sees you in this, he'll just scream with delight!
Maribelle: (I bet he'll scream, all right...)
Lucina: Pardon, Mother? I didn't catch that.
Maribelle: I'm sorry, Lucina. It's just that... Well, this isn't exactly my...style. I'm very grateful for the thought, but...I don't think I can wear it.
Lucina: Oh? I was sure you would like it... Well, perhaps next time I go to market, you could come and pick something yourself. I know it seems frivolous in times like these. But in the blighted future I come from, I often fantasized of such simple pleasures.
Maribelle: Why, Lucina. What a classy, well-bred daughter you've grown up to be. I'd be delighted to go to market with you. ...Delighted and honored.

Lucina: I favor the tasteful and understated. For example, what about this one?
Maribelle: G-gracious! I don't think I've ever seen such a...shimmery magenta.
Lucina: Hmm. I suppose it IS a little bright. Well, what about this one?
Maribelle: Oh, my... That's very lacy. ...In fact, it's nothing BUT lace. Lucina, I can see right through it!
Lucina: Oh, all right. Well...how about this one, then?
Maribelle: Well, it's a nice color, I grant you. But I'm not sure about the whole octopus motif...
Lucina: Oh. I thought you liked octopi. ...This is not going well, is it? Why don't I come back another day and pick out something nice for you?
Maribelle: Er, well, I'm not sure if that's a good idea, but...all right. Let's try it.

Lucina: And I can't wait to see how it fits! Are you ready? TA-DAAAH!
Maribelle: ...Huh? It's...tiny. Almost like... Lucina, these are baby clothes.
Lucina: Yes! I saw you admiring them in the shop when we visited the market together. I didn't understand why, until I realized you must've been thinking of your daughter. The one you have in this era, I mean. Your REAL daughter.
Maribelle: ......
Lucina: You could send it to her back at the castle. I'm sure she must miss you.
Maribelle: Why, Lucina...
Lucina: I've been so happy here, despite having to fight this war. Being able to see my mother again has been like living in a dream. I didn't want to wake up and remember that you have a different life in this world.
Maribelle: ......
Lucina: Whenever I think of your little girl, I can't help but feel...jealous. I know it's ridiculous to envy myself, but I can't help it.
Maribelle: Oh, Lucina...don't be absurd! I've thought of you as my daughter from the moment we were reunited! Believe me when I say I love you just the same as I love that child at the castle.
Lucina: ...Honestly?
Maribelle: Yes! You are a true daughter to me. I want to give you happy memories to make up for those you lost in your future world. And I know your father feels the same way.
Lucina: If anyone knows how he feels, I imagine it would be you...
Maribelle: Of course! Your father and I are alike in numerous ways... We're both parents to the world's most wonderful daughter, for one.
Lucina: ...Thank you, Mother. For everything.

Brady: Huh... Never knew that...
Maribelle: Good day, Brady. What are you reading?
Brady: Oh! N-nothing, Ma.
Maribelle: Don't tell me it's something salacious!
Brady: What?! No! I don't even know what that word means!
Maribelle: Give that here this minute! Let me see... "Proper Diction: A Beginner's Guide"?
Brady: ...Happy now? I was gonna surprise ya after I learned how to talk all pretty.
Maribelle: Brady, you...
Brady: Anyway, what of it?! I'm only doin' it what to get ya off my case!
Maribelle: Brady, this book is designed for children seven years or younger...
Brady: WHAT?! But it's so tough!
Maribelle: I never imagined things were this grim...
Brady: L-look, I just wanted to review the basics, yeah? You're always harpin' on the basics!
Maribelle: Yes, they're paramount, naturally. But still... Chapter one: "Your Friend, the Noun!" ...This is honestly where you're starting?
Brady: H-hey, get off my case! I don't need this! I talk just fine anyway, yeah? Forget all this! I'm'a make like pants and split!
Maribelle: Goodness. Just what manner of education did my future self offer that poor boy?

Brady: Indeed, I discussed the matter a fortnight past with Robin. Was I remiss in notifying you?
Maribelle: Brady?! The voice is yours, but the words...
Brady: I completed my reading of "Proper Diction: A Master's Guide" yesterday evening.
Maribelle: Yes, I heard from many people. ...Frankly, the entire camp is terrified.
Brady: I can only hope my more eloquent locution better conforms to your ideal son, Mother. Now, in further news of the day, I feel that we must allow for... *Gaaaaaasp*
Maribelle: Are you all right?! What is it?!
Brady: How do you breathe, Ma?! Talkin' like that damn near suffocated me! I seriously thought I might pass out.
Maribelle: ......
Brady: I mean, uh, speaking in that manner nearly caused me to be overcome? ...From lack of respiration?
Maribelle: Nice try, darling.
Brady: Aw, horse apples! Ain't no good, Ma. The words just don't fit in my mouth. I feel like I'm gonna chomp my own tongue off here.
Maribelle: Brady, I'm just so very pleased you even bothered to make the effort. But it's time I stopped foisting my ideals on other people. You can think and act responsibly without thinking and acting like me.
Brady: You're creepin' me out here, Ma. What's with the sudden about-face?
Maribelle: That's just it: YOUR sudden about-face creeped ME out.
Brady: Right?! ...Wait, hey! Did you just call me creepy?
Maribelle: Hmm, did I?
Brady: I only did all that speakin' junk 'cause ya kept tellin' me to.
Maribelle: I know, sweetheart. And I'm so very proud of my little honey bear.
Brady: Gah, okay, stop! You're welcome, so just stop!
Maribelle: Ah! Seems I've discovered another way to motivate you... Boo-Boo-Bear.
Brady: No more, Ma! I'm beggin' ya!

Morgan: Hmm... I wonder why I have no memory of my mother... All my memories of Father are so crisp and clear... I remember what an amazing tactician he was, all the time we studied together... But nothing at all about my mother. It's one big blank.
Maribelle: What are you doing, Morgan?
Morgan: Mother! That's amazing! I was just thinking about you! Is this fate?! This is totally fate! Family-style fate! ...Wait, no. How did Father put it? "We're not pawns of some scripted fate. It's the invisible ties we forge that bind us." So yeah, it's not fate. It's the whole invisible bond-link...thing!
Maribelle: Sure it is, dear. Sure it is.
Morgan: Yup! Even without my memories, there's an invisible thread that links us. Er, but that reminds me... I was just wondering how I could have possibly forgotten you, Mother. Do you think maybe you could help me get those memories back?
Maribelle: Of course, darling. I'd be happy to.
Morgan: Yay! Thanks so much! I'll start preparing. Oh, I can't wait to get started!
Maribelle: Well, she's an energetic one...

Morgan: Mother? Do you have a moment?
Maribelle: For you, dear? Of course.
Morgan: Perfect! Then let's get started on Project Get Memories of Mom Back! Step one—figure out how we're going to trigger some flashbacks. I've already tried banging my head against a post, but nothing. I mean, it made me dizzy and nauseated, but it didn't unearth any hidden memories. What do you think, Mother? Perhaps a stone wall would work better?
Maribelle: First things first—no more head smashing, understood? Children these days, I swear... As for your dilemma... Have you considered just staring at my face for a while?
Morgan: Argh, that's perfect! You're a genius! I must have seen your face a million times in the future. It's bound to bring SOMETHING back if I stare at it long enough. Okay, sorry to invade your personal space here, but... Here goes... ...... ......... ............ ............... Drats! It's not working. I don't remember a thing. It's like... Have you ever stared at a word so long it kind of fell apart? And you think, "Is that how that's spelled? Wait, is that even a real WORD?!" Except here it's "Is that what Mother looked like?"
Maribelle: Er, right. Perhaps that's enough of the memory project for one day?
Morgan: Sure... I'm still a little dizzy from banging the post earlier, to be honest... But this doesn't end here! I'm not giving up until I remember you, Mother!

Morgan: *Sigh* No luck today, either... I'm going crazy trying to remember you. I feel so useless! I'm just so... *sniff* Why can't I... *sob*
Maribelle: Come now, darling. No tears.
Morgan: B-but I know I must have loved you just as much as I loved Father. I bet we had a million memories together, and the thought of having lost them... I feel like I failed you. Like I... Like I... *sob*
Maribelle: Morgan...
Morgan: *Sniff* S-sorry. I guess I got a little carried away there... Ngh! M-my head! ...Wha—?!
Maribelle: What's wrong?!
Morgan: I...I remembered something! Just one tiny little memory, but...I remember! You were smiling at me...and you called my name... Ha ha! Yes! You looked a little bit older, but it was DEFINITELY you! Oh thank you, Mother. I never would have remembered without your help. And hey, this is great! If I can get one memory back, maybe I can get the rest! It may take time, but I won't stop trying until I remember everything about you.
Maribelle: You just take all the time you need, dear. Mother will always be here for you.
Morgan: Aw... Thanks, Mom.
