Stormclouds/Conversations

The Three Brothers

Boyd: So I told him, you know? I thought it was important.
Oscar: Are you sure about this? You're always exaggerating stories to make them seem more impressive.
Boyd: No, I'm deadly serious! Trust me, you'd have done exactly the same thing if you were there!
???: Oh... I finally found you!
Woman: Oscar... Boyd... It's been such a long time.
Oscar: Eep!
Boyd: How did you find us?
???: She's in here!
Woman: Let go!

(Gallian arrives)

Gallia: What are you doing here, intruder? You're coming with me!
Woman: No, please! I'm not done yet!
Oscar: Sigh... Please let her go. She's a friend of ours.
Gallia: She is? You should have said something!
Woman: ...Thank you, Oscar. Oh, that was scary!
Boyd: Why did you come here?
Woman: Please. You have to let me see him.
Oscar: I do?
Woman: He's here with you, right!? Let me see Rolf!
Boyd: Uh... Why should we?
Woman: What!?
Boyd: You abandoned him! You left me, Dad and Rolf for some guy! What kind of mom does that, huh!?
Woman: I was different back then! I was so young... I didn't know how to raise two kids while looking after your bedridden father. Believe me, I tried! I tried... But it was too difficult.
Boyd: At least you and I aren't related. But Rolf... That’s different. He's your son! Yours! And you left him behind because it was "too hard"!?
Woman: I'm sorry... I've regretted my decision since the day I made it. I thought of you each and every day.
Boyd: My father died not too long after you left him. We'd have followed him, too, if my brother hadn't abandoned his knighthood in Crimea to take care of us!
Woman: I... I had no idea... Oh... I've made a terrible mistake! I'm so sorry. Forgive me.
Boyd: Leave. Now. You’ve got no right to see Rolf.
Woman: Boyd! Please, I’m begging you! I...I want Rolf to come back and live with me!
Boyd: Lade, you've got some serious nerve. He's our brother! You.re not gonna take him away from us.
Oscar: ...Just...wait here. I'll go get Rolf.
Boyd: Oscar?!
Woman: Oscar! Thank you!
Oscar: Don't get the wrong idea. I haven't suddenly forgiven you.
Woman: Then why...?
Oscar: Because you are still Rolf's mother. Nothing in the world will change that. We'll leave it up to Rolf to decide.

(Oscar leaves)

Boyd: Oscar...

(Time passes; the scene moves to a different part of camp)

Oscar: Are you sure? Are you sure you don't want to see her?
Rolf: Yeah. I don't even remember her face. She’s just another stranger to me.
Oscar: Rolf...
Rolf: I have my family, Oscar. You, Boyd...everyone in the Greil Mercenaries. I don't need anyone else. Why should I let her try and change that?
Oscar: ...
Rolf: Don't look at me like that. Why do you look so sad? I'm not sad.
Oscar: Then I'll ask her to go home.
Rolf: Tell her never to come back. She's being a nuisance.
Oscar: ...Fine.

(Oscar leaves and Boyd arrives)

Boyd: Rolf...
Rolf: I... I do love you, Boyd. We fight all the time, and we might not be related, but you're my real brother. Don't make me go away. You can't! I want to stay with you! I want to stay with my family!
Boyd: You little idiot. Of course you can stay! We raised you, remember? You're not some...thing, to give away to a crazy woman! You're one of us.
Rolf: ...Thanks.

What Goes Around

Heather: So you're Ilyana? That's such a cute and delicate name! I'd never have guessed there'd be such a pretty girl around all these laguz! What a lucky day!
Ilyana: Sigh...
Heather: Is something wrong, Ilyana? Are you feeling sick? You look weak.
Ilyana: I'm...so hungry...
Heather: Oh, no! That's no good. Hold on. I'll bring some food for you right away.
Ilyana: Really? Oh, that would be wonderful...
Heather: Oh, look at that smile! So, what do you like?
Ilyana: Something delicious. I don't particularly care what it is. I just want loads of it.
Heather: Um, all right. I guess that means you eat pretty much anything? I'll go find some dupe who thinks I'm cute, and I'll con him into cooking something! You stay put!

(Heather leaves)

Ilyana: How interesting... Heather... Her name is Heather... I'll have to remember her name. She likes to feed me.

(Ike arrives)

Ike: You still eating everything in sight?
Ilyana: Ah... Hello, Ike. I haven't seen you in a long time.
Ike: Glad to see you remember me.
Ilyana: Of course. I remember all of the mercenaries. Well, most of you, anyway. Oscar prepares such delicious meals. I remember that well enough. Oh, I can't wait to eat his food again.
Ike: Well, I can see you haven't changed a bit.

Item Shop

Aimee: Oh... It's like a dream come true. My hero, standing right in front of me. Somebody pinch me.
Ike: Hey, if you don't let go of my hand, I can't pay you for anything.
Aimee: No! My darling... Let us not spoil our time together with talk of money! Speak sweetly to me, handsome.
Ike: Listen, lady. This is a shop, and I'm a customer. What's so sweet about that?
Aimee: Oh, such cold words... My hero plays hard to get! You're only making me more interested.
Ike: Will you let go of my hand? Please?
Aime: Then tell me I'm beautiful! Tell me I'm more beautiful than any woman in this camp!
Ike: ...And then you'll let go of my hand?
Aimee: Of course. I'll even give you everything you want for free.
Ike: Oh! All right, then...
???: No, Ike! Don't say another word!
Aimee: That voice! It's--

(Soren arrives)

Ike: C'mon, Soren. She's going to give us everything! For free!
Soren: Nothing in life is free, Ike. Suppose you said what she asked you to say, hmm? What then? You'd hear it all over the camp. In nearby villages. Eventually, the entire country would be saying it! "Ike, hero of the Mad King's War, is in love with Aimee the shopgirl." Rumors can quickly spin out of control.
Ike: Come off it. You're exaggerating.
Aimee: Ooh, don't be so sure. With my network of merchants, I'll spread the word to the four corners of Tellius! Within half a year, everyone will know! Then you will be mine forever, Ike! You'll have no choice at all!
Ike: Man, you go right for the neck, don't you? All right, Soren. She's all yours.
Soren: Yes, sir. What I do now, I do for the good of the company.

(Ike leaves)

Aimee: No, Ike! Don't go! Don't do this to me!
Soren: Well, now. Shall we get on with our business? You're looking more beautiful than ever, Aimee. A true delight for the eyes.
Aimee: Ooo... Now you're talking, you little lady-killer!
Soren: I know you won't discount the goods to nothing, since it's coming from me. So... How about you cut your prices down by three-quarters?
Aimee: Ooh... Decisions, decisions.
Soren: You're a diamond, and other beorc only glass beads, Miss Aimee. I'll buy more than enough to justify the discount.
Aimee: Half price, maybe.
Soren: A touch less than three-quarters, then. What do you say, rose of Tellius? O goddess of desire?
Aimee: All right, you win! Just this time, mind you. Take this.
Soren: Ah, a Silver Card. I can buy everything for half price at all of the shops?
Aimee: That's right. Remember what I said, though. It's a limited-time deal. I'll have to take it away soon. Oh, and while you own this card, you won't be able to sell your weapons as raw material. Got that?
Soren: Understood, Miss Aimee. Stay beautiful.

(You got a Silver Card.)

Trivia

For Aimee's last line, the NTSC-U version correctly translated Aimee's Japanese dialogue but it's rendered incorrect due to a gameplay change the localization introduced by removing the forging point system. This error was fixed in the PAL version.
