Tharja/Supports

C Support

 * Ricken: Say, Tharja? You can...you know... do magic and stuff, right?
 * Tharja: Yes. I can do magic and...stuff.
 * Ricken: Cool! So, um, can you maybe teach me how to cast a curse?
 * Tharja: Did someone steal your lunch money?
 * Ricken: Oh, jeepers, no! I just like learning new skills is all.
 * Tharja: Curses and hexes are no simple matter. ...But perhaps you possess the talent.
 * Ricken: Oh, I do! I'm sure I do! So you'll teach me then?
 * Tharja: No.
 * Ricken: What? Oh, come on!
 * Tharja: Casting hexes is not a hobby to be picked up on a whim.
 * Ricken: I know! This is serious business! Super-deadly serious business! I'm trying to get as strong as possible so I can be a key part of Chrom's army. I'm studying fencing, wyvern riding, and even butter sculpting! ...You know. Just in case.
 * Tharja: Hexes and curses are a different animal. A wild, untamable beast. Now forget we had this conversation, and go practice your butter sculpture.
 * Ricken: Well, phooey. I was hoping she'd just say yes. But no worries! She's going to learn that Ricken never, ever gives up!

B Support

 * Tharja: ...Are you still following me? Shoo.
 * Ricken: I'll stick to you like an ant on honey until you teach me how to cast curses.
 * Tharja: Maybe the first lesson will be me casting one on you.
 * Ricken: Seriously? That'd be great! Just let me gird my loins here... Okay! Ready when you are.
 * Tharja: ...Gods, but you are persistent. *sigh* Fine.
 * Ricken: Really? You'll teach me?
 * Tharja: ...No. But I'll tell you why I CAN'T teach you. My own powers are not fully developed, so I'm in no position to instruct anyone.
 * Ricken: Oh. ...Wait, really?
 * Tharja: Just because I'm a powerful dark mage doesn't mean my training in complete. I have many hexes yet to learn, and even the ones I know don't always work.
 * Ricken: When it comes to cursing, you're awfully conscientious.
 * Tharja: The hexing arts are a capricious master, and I do not like mistakes.
 * Ricken: But if you're afraid of slipping up, how can you learn new things? Everyone knows the best way to learn is to just do it and see what happens.
 * Tharja: That seems like a rather dangerous attitude for a mage. Although... Hmm... That actually might be fun... All right. I'm going to start experimenting with new and unknown magic. I'll go out to the woods alone and cast every curse and hex I've ever heard of! ...Hee.
 * Ricken: Hey, wait! This was all my idea. You have to let me come!
 * Tharja: ...I'll think about it.

A Support

 * Tharja: Do you have the materials I asked you to prepare?
 * Ricken: Yep, all here! I'm ready to get cursing!
 * Tharja: Then you can begin. But make sure to follow my orders exactly.
 * Ricken: I will. ...Oh wait.
 * Tharja: Yes?
 * Ricken: You haven't told me who I'm supposed to cast it on yet.
 * Tharja: You can try it on me.
 * Ricken: ...Er, are you sure?
 * Tharja: It's the quickest and easiest way to determine if you did it correctly. And I'm not sure these other chumps would appreciate being test subjects.
 * Ricken: No, I guess not. Okay, here goes... Hyaaa! ...So how do you feel? Did it work?
 * Tharja: Huh, it would appear that I'm cursed, That's very good for a first attempt.
 * Ricken: Hurray!
 * Tharja: ...Hurray! Oh! I see you chose a happiness-contagion hex. How sweet of you.
 * Ricken: I was actually kind of surprised someone invented nice curses. I thought they were all scary and cruel and just turned people into weasels.
 * Tharja: Don't be fooled by the name. Curses are a kind of magic that gives life to dreams. Whether it is a dream of joy or horror depends very much on the victim.
 * Ricken: People are all wrong about you, Tharja. You're actually really nice! I mean, even though you seem creepy, you let me practice on you. Maybe you should show more of that side instead of the doom and gloom. I mean, your smile is pretty, you know? You should show it more.
 * Tharja: I like the way I am.
 * Ricken: Well, okay, I guess. Seems like a waste, though...
 * Tharja: Life would be dull if everyone was happy and polite. Also, don't tell anyone about this. I have an image to maintain.
 * Ricken: Okay, Tharja! It'll be our secret. So does this mean you're going to teach me more curses?
 * Tharja: Maybe some simple ones.
 * Ricken: Aw, can't I learn them all?
 * Tharja: Let's start small.

S Support

 * Tharja: You really are good at this. I see you've already mastered the basic hexes.
 * Ricken: Thanks to you!
 * Tharja: Keep your thanks. Our lessons have helped me learn more about my art. Working with you have helped focus my thinking.
 * Ricken: Sooo, the more you teach me, the better you're going to be?
 * Tharja: I suppose. But you really don't need me to continue your studies. You've got plenty of talent without me mucking around in there. As long as you're curious and dedicated, you'll be fine.
 * Ricken: But I only learned so fast because you're such a good teacher! I want you to show me more creepy spells and teach me how to sneer and stuff!
 * Tharja: ...Teach you how to sneer?
 * Ricken: A-actually, I think we can learn a lot from each other, you know? So, um, I kind of got you...this.
 * Tharja: That looks expensive.
 * Ricken: It's a family heirloom. I was told to give this ring to the woman I marry. I'm going to be of age soon, and when that happens, I want you to be my wife!
 * Tharja: ...We do make a pretty good team, don't we? If I can just convince you to be a little more evil... ...Heh.
 * Ricken: So that's a yes, right? ...Um, is that a yes?
