 * Avatar: Hmm, this is unusual. I've actually done everything on my list for today. Maybe I'll sit back and have a cup of tea before I turn in. There is that book I've been meaning to finish, too...
 * Oboro: Lord Avatar! What are you doing in here?
 * Avatar: Wh - Oboro?! Why are you up so late?
 * Oboro: I'm cleaning. Couldn't you tell by my mop and broom?
 * Avatar: In the dead of night, though?
 * Oboro: Afraid so. I have my duties and training to attend to during the day. So this is really the only chance I get. Now stop loafing around, Lord Avatar. You're in the way. Don't you leave that book there! Take it with you!
 * Avatar: Urgh...so much for a relaxing evening...I suppose the chores must be done, even if it is nearly midnight. Is there anything I can do to help you?
 * Oboro: ...
 * Avatar: Oboro...? Did you hear the question?
 * Oboro: Hm? Oh, uh, yeah.
 * Avatar: Really? You seemed anguished over something.
 * Oboro: F-forget it...now shoo! I've still gotta sweep in here!
 * Avatar: I'm going, I'm going...

 * Avatar: Whew...what an exhausting day. And I still haven't had dinner yet. I wonder if there's anything in the kitchen I can take back to my room...
 * Oboro: ...
 * Avatar: Is there someone in here? AAAAH!
 * Oboro: ...
 * Avatar: Help! S-s-someone! It's a demon!
 * Oboro: Oh...Lord Avatar.
 * Avatar: Huh? Oh...it's only you. Whew. I must admit, it's a little creepy to see you in a dark room with only a single candle.
 * Oboro: S-sorry...
 * Avatar: Oboro, is everything OK? You were staring off into the woods for a moment.
 * Oboro: Yeah. Everything's fine.
 * Avatar: I'm not convinced. Your attention was wandering last time, too. Is something bothering you?
 * Oboro: Nothing that Lord Avatar should concern himself with.
 * Avatar: Don't worry about that. You shouldn't keep your troubles bottled up inside. I don't mind listening, at least.
 * Oboro: ...All right, since you insist. It's not a problem so much as a bad memory. When I was a kid, my parents ran a clothing shop in our village. We were out trading in Nohr when bandits attacked and killed them both. I hid in the wagon, and fortunately the bandits didn't notice me.
 * Avatar: I never knew...
 * Oboro: It all happened on a moonless night, just like this one. I can't help but remember when the sky gets black.
 * Avatar: Which explains why your face was so stormy. I'm sorry, Oboro. Here I am, notionally a Nohrian, asking you to open up to me. It was insensitive.
 * Oboro: N-not at all! You have nothing to feel guilty for, Lord Avatar. It's the bandits who are to blame. They're fiends in human shape...
 * Avatar: Oboro...
 * Oboro: Oh, um - sorry. I got kind of carried away there, I guess. I'll, uh...show myself out.
 * Avatar: That poor girl...

 * Oboro: Midnight cleaning time! Let's do this!
 * Avatar: More late-night cleaning, Oboro?
 * Oboro: Yes. Sorry to disturb you at this hour, but I'd appreciate your help.
 * Avatar: A couple nights ago it was repairing weapons and armor. Last night, you took inventory of the whole storeroom.
 * Oboro: Well, better safe than sorry, they say. Come on, Lord Avatar, don't just stand there. Help or get out of the way!
 * Avatar: I know what you're doing, Oboro. You're staying busy to pretend that nothing bothers you during the night, aren't you?
 * Oboro: ...
 * Avatar: Is it because spending a quiet night alone reminds you of the night your parents died?
 * Oboro: D-don't be silly! There are all kinds of reasons a girl would spend every night doing chores.
 * Avatar: But I've noticed you tend to glance grimly out at the forest while you do these chores.
 * Oboro: Th-that's because...um...
 * Avatar: Sorry. I wasn't trying to overstep my boundaries. But you seem desperate somehow, and it makes my heart ache to see.
 * Oboro: Hrgh...
 * Avatar: You don't need to try so hard. It won't bring your parents back...you have your master, and me, and all the others here to help you.
 * Oboro: Haha...you saw right through me, Lord Avatar. No matter how hard I try not to be, I'm a mess. I put up a front so I don't fall apart, and I keep people away with my stare...but it was never going to work forever. I just can't do it.
 * Avatar: Oboro...no one cares if you're a mess! We all have problems. We'll all help you through yours.
 * Oboro: Lord Avatar...
 * Avatar: If you're scared on the front lines, there's plenty to contribute in the back. If you really wants, you can just stay here and do the chores. Everyone knows you as a kind person who always looks out for her comrades. So let us look out for you. Come to us anytime you want.
 * Oboro: Lord Avatar...you think they'll help me if I ask?
 * Avatar: I know they will. An army is founded on people not having to struggle alone.
 * Oboro: ...I never saw it like that before. Thank you...so much. I think I was shutting myself out for no reason. I feel a little better now.
 * Avatar: Good. You shouldn't hesitate to show your vulnerable side around your friends.
 * Oboro: Hahaha. What about my scary side?
 * Avatar: You mean that face you're always making? Maybe keep that to yourself...

 * Oboro: Um... Lord Avatar?
 * Avatar: Hi, Oboro. Doing some late-night chores?
 * Oboro: No...my past hasn't bothered me as much lately. So no cleaning tonight.
 * Avatar: That's good. It shows you're growing.
 * Oboro: Well, I still make that scowl sometimes. I see a Nohrian and I can't help myself.
 * Avatar: Hmm...well, just be aware that no everyone in Nohr is a villain. And I'm not saying that in self-defense.
 * Oboro: Yeah, I know.
 * Avatar: I think we should judge people by what's in their hearts, not where they're from. As Hoshidan royalty raised in Nohr, I hope to prove that to you.
 * Oboro: Mind proving that to me up close, Lord Avatar? It would be easier to see if I could stay at your side from now on...
 * Avatar: If that will help, of course.
 * Oboro: ...
 * Avatar: Um...?
 * Oboro: You can be so thick sometimes, Lord Avatar. When I say "up close" and "by your side," I mean...
 * Avatar: Wait... Oboro, are you saying...
 * Oboro: You're just getting it now? I love you, Lord Avatar. You've always watched over me and helped me when I needed it. Now that I've put the traumas of my past behind me... I want to help you as you've helped me, Lord Avatar.
 * Avatar: Oboro...
 * Oboro: Or maybe you don't want someone as fussy and difficult as me...
 * Avatar: No, don't be silly! I love you too. I love the way you're always thinking about the best way to help other people. That's why I wanted to help you-to repay all the kindness you've shown!
 * Oboro: Lord Avatar...
 * Avatar: I promise to make this world a place you can feel safe at night-or any other time. Until I do, I hope you'll stay at my side and come to me for whatever you need.
 * Oboro: I'd be delighted to, Lord Avatar. And I'm great at taking care of people- you know that by now!
 * Avatar: Then I'll be at your side, counting on you as well.
 * Oboro: I hope someday I can love the world as much as you do. Please stay with me 'til then.

 * Oboro: They say you've been volunteering for mop-up operations left and right. Is that true?
 * Jakob: Pardon? You're...Oboro, right?
 * Oboro: I didn't come here to introduce myself. Answer the question.
 * Jakob: You heard correctly, then.
 * Oboro: I had a bad feeling about you...and it looks like I was right.
 * Jakob: It's clear by your face that you don't care much for me.
 * Oboro: *shrug* People who willingly go on mop-up runs are scum, plain and simple. Getting your jollies by going after troops who've already been beaten is disgusting.
 * Jakob: I take no pleasure in it.
 * Oboro: Doesn't matter. You volunteered, which makes you just as bad. That's why I'm giving you the stink-eye.
 * Jakob: Think what you like. It has no bearing on me one way or another.
 * Oboro: All right, then. Good talk.

 * Silas: Hmp! Ngh! Hrraaaah! Hmm?
 * Oboro: ...
 * Silas: Hi there, Oboro. Come to do some training?
 * Oboro: ...Sure.
 * Silas: I've heard the Hoshidan style of swordplay is unrivaled! I'd love to learn more of it. How about some friendly sparring to test our skills?
 * Oboro: ...Pass.
 * Silas: Woah! That face really says it all. You really don't want to spar with me, huh?
 * Oboro: It's nothing personal. I hate all Nohrians equally. Just thinking of them gets my blood boiling...but maybe I'll relax a little if you turn out not to be so bad.
 * Silas: All right. I guess I can't fault you, what with the bad blood between our nations. But let's put that anger to use! We could still do some sparring.
 * Oboro: Not a good idea. As angry as I am, I'd probably kill you.
 * Silas: ...
 * Oboro: I'm gonna go do something else now. Bye.
 * Silas: That's strange...well, I'm sure she has her reasons.

B Support

 * Silas: Oboro? I wanted to apologize for last time.
 * Oboro: Oh yeah?
 * Silas: I got curious after you left, so I did some digging. It's easy to see why you hate Nohrians so much...Nohrian bandits killed your parents, didn't they?
 * Oboro: ...Yeah. Right in front of me.
 * Silas: I'm sorry for touching a sore spot last time, then. I didn't know.
 * Oboro: That's OK. I'm not mad about it. I've fought alongside you long enough by now to know you're all right. I mean, look at me - I'm not making that face right now, am I?
 * Silas: Sure enough. Oboro...having lived in Nohr all my life, let me just say one thing on its behalf. Nohr has its share of heartless villains like the bandits who killed your parents. But there are good people living there too. Many Nohrians are decent folk, just like the people of Hoshido.
 * Oboro: I'm...sure they are.
 * Silas: I grant that it may be hard to accept on its own. I just wanted you to know.
 * Oboro: Yeah...fair enough. I'll try to remember. Thanks, Silas.

A Support

 * Oboro: Hey, Silas. 
 * Silas: What's on your mind, Oboro?
 * Oboro: I wanted to ask you something. You know those bandits we cleared out a while ago? I noticed they were Nohrian, and they were preying on Hoshidan families. 
 * Silas: What about it?
 * Oboro: Why did you save the Hoshidans? Were you trying to prove your loyalty, now that you're not with Nohr anymore? 
 * Silas: No. I'd have done the same if it were Hoshidan bandits attacking Nohrian peasants.
 * Oboro: So, what's the deal? 
 * Silas: It's a knight's duty to protect the innocent. Now, some might say protecting innocents from an enemy nation is going too far...but in my book, that's the mark of a true knight.
 * Oboro: Hmm...you know, you told me before that there are good people in Nohr. And you know what? You were right. You're living proof of it. 
 * Silas: I'm glad I could help change your mind.
 * Oboro: I'll try harder not to make snap judgments about people like that. It's better to get to now people better for who they are, not where they're from.
 * Silas: Wisely said, Oboro.

S Support

 * Silas: Thanks for coming, Oboro. Sorry for such short notice.
 * Oboro: If anyone should be apologizing here, it's me. I had you all wrong, Silas. I never imagined Nohr could have people as good as you in it.
 * Silas: It's water under the bridge. But I hope your belief in my goodness will make it easier to answer my question...
 * Oboro: What question?
 * Silas: Will you take this ring?
 * Oboro: Is this a...?
 * Silas: Yes, it's an engagement ring? Can you find it in your heart to truly love a Nohrian, as I love you?
 * Oboro: Silas...
 * Silas: I know the scars in your heart won't heal easily. But I want to be there to help. What do you think? Could you have any feelings for a man of Nohr?
 * Oboro: Ask me a hard one. I would love to accept this ring.
 * Silas: Really?
 * Oboro: But what about you? Are you sure you want to spend your life with me?
 * Silas: What kind of question is that? Of course!
 * Oboro: You wouldn't be embarrassed to have a wife who makes such awful faces? Like this...
 * Silas: Haha! Is that all that's worrying you? Love is strange. I used to find that face terrifying, but now I think it's beautiful.
 * Oboro: Hahaha...that's a good thing. Because you'll be seeing me make it a LOT.
 * Silas: I wouldn't have it any other way. Here's to many years of happiness.
 * Oboro: I look forward to seeing just how good a Nohrian can be!

 * Oboro: Phew! All done!
 * Kaze: Hello, Oboro. What are you doing here in the pantry?
 * Oboro: Oh, hey, Kaze. I was revamping our shelving system. See? Much better.
 * Kaze: I must agree. We're lucky to have such a hard worker around.
 * Oboro: Aw, you're making too much of it. I just felt like a project!
 * Kaze: Hm? Did you see something move?
 * Oboro: Huh? I didn't see any - GAAAAAAH!
 * Kaze: Oboro?!
 * Oboro: S-s-something just scurried over my foot!
 * Kaze: Stay calm, Oboro. It was probably only a mouse.
 * Oboro: A...a mouse...??
 * Kaze: This is a pantry. I wouldn't be surprised to find a few in here.
 * Oboro: Good point.
 * Kaze: It is a problem, though. If we don't take steps, they'll get into the food.
 * Oboro: ...
 * Kaze: Oboro?
 * Oboro: Heh heh...we have to save the food, eh? Watch yourself, mousie! You'll rue the day you crossed me!
 * Kaze: You seem oddly enthusiastic about this.
 * Oboro: Oh, you're in this too, Kaze! It'll take two to outsmart this little rodent!
 * Kaze: Me?
 * Oboro: You're not abandoning the hunt so soon, are you? Let's work together and catch that mouse!
 * Kaze: Hmm. Our food supply is at stake...all right, I'll lend a hand.
 * Oboro: Excellent! Now come on - let's go talk mouse-catching strategy!

B Support

 * Oboro: I don't understand... Why isn't the stupid mouse falling for my traps?
 * Kaze: It's managed to snatch the cheese from every trap without setting them off. We're up against a very crafty mouse.
 * Oboro: Urrgh...that thing's making a fool of us! We have to do something!
 * Kaze: I agree. What we need is a good strategy... Ah! I have it.
 * Oboro: What's your plan?
 * Kaze: There's a ninja technique to infuse food with a paralyzing agent. If we modify the dosage for a mouse, it might be just the thing.
 * Oboro: Great idea! Let's try it right away!
 * Kaze: I have enough of the agent already, so all we need is a bit of food. Do you think it would eat one of these dumplings I made for lunch?
 * Oboro: If it tastes as good as it smells, I bet our nemesis will make a beeline for it.
 * Kaze: The secret is the dried bonito flakes I mixed in.
 * Oboro: Never mind the mouse, now I want some...
 * Kaze: What? Wait, you mustn't!
 * Oboro: I'm just kidding. You're always so serious about everything, Kaze. Lighten up!
 * Kaze: ...Now you're just being cruel.
 * Oboro: Heh, sorry. Show me how to make these dumplings for the mousetraps!
 * Kaze: Oh, right, it would be good for you to learn that. To the kitchen, then?
 * Oboro: Lead the way!

A Support

 * Oboro: Kaze! Guess what! I caught the mouse!
 * Kaze: Well done, Oboro.
 * Oboro: I didn't do much. You're the one who had the idea for those poison dumplings.
 * Kaze: Think nothing of it. Though if it earns me a visit for you to relay your thanks, that's a nice perk.
 * Oboro: Sh-shut up! You're embarrassing me. I bet the ladies eat up that smooth talk.
 * Kaze: What do you mean?
 * Oboro: Haha, were you really not even trying? I guess it's true what they say about you being naive.
 * Kaze: No one says that about me. You must be mistaken.
 * Oboro: Heh, not every rumor reaches the ears of the one it's about. But don't be upset. Better for women to love you than hate you, right?
 * Kaze: I suppose...
 * Oboro: Anyway, good thing the mouse problem is taken care of.
 * Kaze: Yes. Our food reserves are safe.
 * Oboro: Yeah. Though I hope next time a mouse pops up, I can take care of it faster. This one put up quite a fight.
 * Kaze: Indeed. I've heard that pests learn to avoid traps after a while. These poison dumplings may not work the next time around... But I'll stand ready to help you eliminate any future pests, efficiently and accurately.
 * Oboro: Gosh... You really are serious about everything.

S Support

 * Oboro: Hey, Kaze, I whipped up some dumplings to thank you for your help. Do you want some?
 * Kaze: My help?
 * Oboro: Yeah. With getting rid of the mice. We couldn't eat poisoned dumplings, so I made some that are safe to eat!
 * Kaze: I do remember your mouth watering when we were preparing the others.
 * Oboro: Hey! You make it sound like all I think about is food.
 * Kaze: But isn't that true?
 * Oboro: One more word, and I'm eating all these dumplings myself!
 * Kaze: I'll eat silently, then. Oh...! This is...magnificent!
 * Oboro: See, I told you.
 * Kaze: No, you don't understand. It's VERY good. But you didn't need to go to such lengths to thank me.
 * Oboro: Oh, it's fine! I just wanted a project. Besides, you get gifts from women all the time.
 * Kaze: I keep trying to decline, but none of them ever listen...
 * Oboro: So you're declining my gift too?
 * Kaze: No. I enjoy your gifts.
 * Oboro: Interesting... And by that do you mean...you have feelings for me?
 * Kaze: What do you mean?
 * Oboro: Every time I talk to you, I realize how kind and sincere you are, Kaze. You always try to help me with whatever I'm trying to do. Even when I poke fun at you, you take it in stride and give me a serious answer. And I was thinking...it would make me happy to stay at your side forever.
 * Kaze: Oboro...
 * Oboro: I told you that these dumplings were a thank-you gift, but that was a lie. They were really just an excuse to spend some time with you. It would be nice not to need excuses anymore. Would you be interested in that?
 * Kaze: Oboro...thank you. I didn't realize how you felt about me until you said this. It might surprise you to know that I feel the same way.
 * Oboro: Really...?
 * Kaze: I was moved by the depth of your feelings. I'm only sorry that it took me so long to realize this...
 * Oboro: It's never too late, Kaze. We've got a lot of time ahead of us to be together!
 * Kaze: Hah! So are we officially a couple now? I hope you'll put up with your oaf of a boyfriend, then.
 * Oboro: Haha, you're hardly an oaf, Kaze. This is what I mean about you being so serious! But yes, we're a couple. And a very happy one, if you ask me!

 * Oboro: I have this hobby where I put together outfits for people. Did you know that?
 * Mozu: Yeah, I knew...
 * Oboro: And you're my next project! Let me figure out a nice outfit for you, Mozu. You always wear such drab outfits, and I want to fix that!

 * Oboro: So what's the problem, then?
 * Mozu: Well... I only looked like that 'cause of you. Without the clothes and the makeup, I'm still a plain country girl. I noticed the last time I was getting in my nightclothes and glanced in the mirror. and I've been feeling low about it ever since. But thanks for making my dream come true.

 * Oboro: Putting on makeup and some fancy clothes doesn't make you a new person. You're still the same old you no matter what you wear.
 * Mozu: I am?
 * Oboro: Yeah. Even a knockout Mozu is still Mozu. When people complimented you, they weren't praising the dress. They were praising you. So be more confident!
 * Mozu: You really think so?
 * Oboro: All a nice set of clothes ever does is bring out what someone already has inside. There's no magic outfit. I wouldn't dress two people the same way. They need different clothes to shine, which is what makes my job fun! So you can be proud, knowing all those people were really responding to you.
 * Mozu: So even with the pretty outfit you made... I was still me. That's a nice way of looking at it.
 * Oboro: And it's true to boot! So buck up. Or else all the beauty will drain out!
 * Mozu: Um, Oboro... I wanna learn how to make myself look nice. Once this war's over, can you teach me about fashion stuff?
 * Oboro: Can I ever! And I mean, why wait? I can give you pointers here and there whenever you want!
 * Mozu: That'd be swell! Thanks so much, Oboro!

 * Ryoma: My apologies. I heard a sound that woke me from my rest...
 * Oboro: You look tired, Lord Ryoma. I can see bags under your eyes.
 * Ryoma: It matters little. Neither of us can afford to rest, can we? Besides, I've gone without sleep for three days before and felt no worse for wear.
 * Oboro: Y-you haven't slept for three days?! Lord Ryoma, you could die!

 * Ryoma: Don't let it trouble you. I've never had anyone scold me like that before... It was a new experience for me. I found it most amusing.
 * Oboro: Is that so?
 * Ryoma: Yes. I'm taking pains to get all the rest you insisted upon, Oboro.
 * Oboro: Well, that's a load off my mind. I only want you to be healthy, Lord Ryoma. You're my master's older brother, so your well-being matters a lot to me.
 * Ryoma: Thank you. But I think you undervalue your critical importance to our army.
 * Oboro: Huh?
 * Ryoma: Prolonged combat makes everyone tense. But you help people to ready themselves for battle, relaxing them and raising their morale. Only someone with genuine compassion for one's allies can do that.
 * Oboro: Oh, well... I just do it because I want to.
 * Ryoma: Don't deny that it's helpful. I know that it is. You ought to be proud of yourself.

 * Takumi: Can I talk to you, Oboro?
 * Oboro: Lord Takumi! Did you need something?
 * Takumi: Last time I was in town, I happened into a big clothing store. Trying a few things on reminded me of how you coordinated my last ceremonial outfit. Everyone complimented me on my style at the time. And I remembered that I never thanked you for that, so... thanks.
 * Oboro: Oh... you're too kind, Lord Takumi! But selecting outfits is all part of the job of a retainer. Just say the word, and I'll gladly tailor an outfit for you anytime.
 * Takumi: Really? You can do that too?
 * Oboro: Of course! Tailoring runs in my family. Though I'm the only one left...
 * Takumi: Oboro...
 * Oboro: Sorry! I didn't mean to get mopey. But yeah, bandits killed my parents a while back. I don't think much about the family business these days.
 * Takumi: You're not harboring some secret desire to become a fashion maven? You don't have to lie about it just because you're my retainer.
 * Oboro: I would never lie to my lord! I'm happy enough serving you, and I mean that. Now, if I said I had no interest in fashion at all, THAT would be a lie. But I get a thrill out of hearing people say how good I am at selecting your clothes. It shows I haven't lost my touch at making people look good!
 * Takumi: Well, wait, you make it sound like I don't look good all the time.
 * Oboro: N-no! That's not what I meant at all! Lord Takumi is the picture of elegance! Very few are innately noble enough to carry off such splendor!
 * Takumi: ...OK, it sounds fake when you overdo it like that.
 * Oboro: I'm just telling it like it is! I'm satisfied with whatever I can do to make you look even more dashing.
 * Takumi: Well...if you say so. I'll need your help again someday, Oboro. Once everything settles down and I have the opportunity to wear something nice.

 * Oboro: Aha! Lord Takumi!
 * Takumi: Hi, Oboro.
 * Oboro: Quick question about your ceremonial outfit for after the war's over: What do you think of this fabric?
 * Takumi: You're planning it already? That's a very early start...
 * Oboro: Hey, I don't take favors personally requested by my lord lightly. Plus, I like thinking about the future, when the war's over. It gives me a fuzzy feeling. Not to mention all eyes would be on any outfit worn to a postwar ceremony. You call it an early start, but I'm already worried I don't have enough time!
 * Takumi: In that case, let's see this fabric. Hmm...this looks perfect to me. I like the texture, and the sheen on it. It gets the Takumi seal of approval.
 * Oboro: Great! Now that the fabric's decided, I'll get back to you on the color.
 * Takumi: Please do.
 * Oboro: ...
 * Takumi: Hm? You fell silent all of a sudden.
 * Oboro: Oh, uh...it's nothing.
 * Takumi: Were you thinking about your parents? Does it make you sad working on clothes, since they were tailors too?
 * Oboro: Oh, that's not it. I mean, yes, I was thinking about my parents, but... I thought that my parents would be proud to see me fitting Hoshidan royalty...
 * Takumi: I'm sure they're both smiling down on their daughter from above.
 * Oboro: I hope so. Heh, it's weird, though.
 * Takumi: What is?
 * Oboro: It's just very unlike you to shower praise on people. In fact, I don't know if I've ever seen you be this kind to anyone! What's next? Will foxes start sitting on hens' eggs?

 * Oboro: You weren't? Then what's this about?
 * Takumi: I've been boasting about your talent for fashion lately... And I've had many requests to get you to coordinate an outfit.
 * Oboro: R-really?
 * Takumi: What do you think? Will you take on the work?
 * Oboro: Heck yes! I'd love to!
 * Takumi: I thought you might. I'll collect the details and pass them along next time I see you. Are you excited?
 * Oboro: Y-yes! But what made you tell everyone about me?
 * Takumi: You mentioned your interest in fashion. You also said that you were perfectly happy working for me. So I thought I'd arrange things so you could do both at once... You'd still be my retainer while taking on tailoring work in your free time.
 * Oboro: Lord Takumi... I never knew you cared. This is more than I could have dreamed of!
 * Takumi: Isn't it normal to care about your subjects' well-being? If you don't like the idea, I can always tell everyone you're too busy.
 * Oboro: No no no! I'd be delighted! Thank you so much, Lord Takumi.

 * Oboro: Um...so...about that. I'm REALLY sorry, but...could you tell all those people it's not happening?
 * Takumi: What?! Why? Everybody was excited to see what you would pick out for them. Myself included!

 * Oboro: I'm so sorry, Lord Takumi. This is totally my fault! And I count myself lucky to have a master like you... But when you're this nice to me, it makes it hard to control my feelings for you. I don't think I'll be a very good retainer as long as I can't hide them.
 * Takumi: Oboro! Are you saying...?
 * Oboro: I... I love you, Lord Takumi. I've loved you for a long time...
 * Takumi: Oboro, I—
 * Oboro: I know that it's unacceptable for a retainer to feel this way about her master. Especially for the retainer to a prince. I'm way below your station. And since I'm no good to you anymore, I'm going to bow out quietly.
 * Takumi: So you're declining all the fashion requests AND stepping down as my retainer?
 * Oboro: Yes... A retainer like me will only bring you trouble, Lord Takumi.
 * Takumi: *sigh* That's very disappointing to hear.
 * Oboro: I know. And I'm sorry.
 * Takumi: Not about you leaving. But you seriously thought I didn't know how you felt about me?
 * Oboro: ...What?
 * Takumi: I knew almost since you started that you were interested in me.
 * Oboro: You...you did?!
 * Takumi: And it's a good thing you are, because I love you too. I had hoped you'd be my bride someday.
 * Oboro: L-L-Lord Takumi?
 * Takumi: So don't worry about it, Oboro. Our relationship isn't in jeopardy. It's OK for you to think of me as the only one for you—that's how I think of you too.
 * Oboro: I just...I never thought you'd...
 * Takumi: It's all right. Dry those eyes. I wanted you to be your own woman even after we got married. That's why I was helping to get your fashion business off the ground. So please reconsider. Stay with me, and help all your new clients dress their best.
 * Oboro: *sniff* Y-yeah...that would be amazing! *sob*
 * Takumi: Good. Let's not hear any more nonsense about quitting everything, OK? I'm sorry I didn't say something sooner. But starting today, we'll work together to bring about peace and fulfill your dreams.

 * Oboro: What, really? Nice! You must be pround!
 * Saizo: Yest. It is a rage privilege for a ninja. But my current mode of dress would dishnor my master at the event. I thought the clothes you provided me with would be more suitable. So, perhaps... you could suggest something to wear to the ceremony?

 * Saizo: Is something wrong? I've never known you not to get excited about costuming. Is this how you repay me for making time in my busy schedule?

 * Oboro: How do you mean?

 * Oboro: Hey, Hayato. This is a rare pleasure. What did you need?
 * Hayato: I still feel bad about avoiding you.This isn't meant as an apology, really, but I thought I'd chat with you.
 * Oboro: Thanks, Hayato.
 * Hayato: That awful face of yours doesn't scare me so much anymore now.
 * Oboro: Hayato...I know you had a scare.... But telling a girl her face is "awful" every five minutes isn't very endearing.
 * Hayato: Gaaah! S-sorry...
 * Oboro: Hehehe, just don't do it again.
 * Hayato: Still, after hearing your story, I can tell you cared a lot about your family. I lost my own parents, so I understand how you feel.
 * Oboro: You too? Oof, I'm sorry.
 * Hayato: Yes, I was luckier than you, in that I didn't witness their deaths.... Some Faceless ambushed and killed my parents jsut outside of town. I was very young when this happened, so I have no memory of them.
 * Oboro: Then...this war has taken both of our parents from us.
 * Hayato: That it has. But mourning the past won't bring them back. We must look foward and end this war. That's how we'll honor our parents.
 * Oboro: You're right. I'll work twice as hard to end this war as soon as we can!
 * Hayato: And I'll work right along with you.

 * Hayato: Oboro, there's something I want to talk to you about.
 * Oboro: Hey, Hayato! It's such a nice change of pace for you to WANT to talk to me.
 * Hayato: I-I guess...
 * Oboro: You seem on edge today, though.
 * Hayato: N...no I'm not...
 * Oboro: Why are you tugging at your sleeves? Oh! Is the bow on your kimono loose? I can fix that for you!
 * Hayato: That's not it! Well, that's part of it. But not the only thing I wanted to ask!
 * Oboro: You're being so coy. Why don't you come out and say it?
 * Hayato: I...uh... I love you, Oboro! There! Are you happy?!
 * Oboro: Huh? What?! F-for real? But you spent so much time avoiding me!
 * Hayato: I told you, that was a misunderstanding! I had you all wrong at first. But now I know what a sweet girl you are! As soon as I heard your passion to carry on your parents' business, I fell for you.
 * Oboro: This is pretty sudden... I need to think about this.
 * Hayato: What's to think about?
 * Oboro: Hayato...I actually had a crush on you, too.
 * Hayato: You did?!
 * Oboro: But you kept running from me, so I thought I didn't have a chance. I figured you'd never like me the way I liked you, so I tried to bury my feelings.
 * Hayato: Oh dear...
 * Oboro: I was so happy to find a kindred spirit when I told you about my parents. Not only that, but you wanted to help me end the war! What more could I want?
 * Hayato: I'm glad you feel that way! I'd really like to spend a lot more time with you, now that we understand each other.
 * Oboro: Yeah, me too. This is gonna be great!

 * Kaden: Hey, Oboro! Whatcha doin'?
 * Oboro: AAAH! Kaden! Don't scare me like that!
 * Kaden: Oops! You just looked so focused on whatever it was that I had to know.
 * Oboro: I was braiding something.
 * Kaden: Oh yeah?
 * Oboro: It's a particular way of braiding silk yarn into cords. You can use the cords to decorate swords or on kimono sashes. This one's a bracelet.
 * Kaden: Oh, right, I've seen that! It's really pretty when it comes out right. I didn't know you were so talented, Oboro!
 * Oboro: Eh, my parents used to run a clothing store, that's all. They taught me how to do this stuff when I was little. I like to kill time when there's nothing else to do by making these.
 * Kaden: Hey, don't undersell it! It must take real skill to make these bracelets! I mean, look at how detailed they are up close. It's something else!
 * Oboro: If you like them that much, do you want to try making one?
 * Kaden: Oh, I'm not sure I'm up to that.
 * Oboro: Sure you are! It's easy, once you get the hang of it. I bet you can learn in no time.
 * Kaden: Really? Maybe I'll take you up on that!

 * Kaden: Was I doing it wrong? Hrm... this is harder than I pictured.
 * Oboro: *sigh* I hate to say this, but I don't think you're having trouble following directions. You're just not very good. This is beginner-level stuff, and you're still struggling with it!
 * Kaden: Hey, you can't blame me. You're the one making it hard to follow.
 * Oboro: Excuse me?
 * Kaden: That was, uh, a joke. Sorry.
 * Oboro: *grumple* Let's start over.
 * Kaden: Nah, there's no need. I've messed up enough that I don't want to waste any more of your time.
 * Oboro: What kind of tal is that?! I'm not letting you off the hook that easy! We're staying here until you learn how to do this.
 * Kaden: R-right... You sure have a passion for braiding and weaving, huh?
 * Oboro: Haha, what tipped you off?
 * Kaden: If you can remember all these complicated patterns, you must have practiced a lot.
 * Oboro: It made my parents happy when I'd learn a new technique. So I studied hard until I'd mastered them all.
 * Kaden: That took a lot of effort, right? I'm amazed to see that kind of dedication.
 * Oboro: Hey! Did I tell you to stop? Less talking, more practicing! I'm gonna keep riding you until you can do this on your own, Kaden.

 * Kaden: *sigh* Oboro tried so hard to teach me that braiding technique. And I still can't do it. I'm so clumsy...
 * Oboro: Hey, Kaden, do you have a minute?
 * Kaden: Oh, hey, Oboro. Sorry about the lessons last time. I couldn't figure it out even when you were right there explaining it to me.
 * Oboro: It's OK. I'm sorry for being so strict. Anyway, here.
 * Kaden: What's this?
 * Oboro: It's the braid you started. I finished it for you. You should have it.
 * Kaden: Really?
 * Oboro: Yeah. You worked hard, so consider this your reward.
 * Kaden: Wow! Thanks, Oboro!
 * Oboro: You're welcome. I should really be thanking you, you know.
 * Kaden: Huh? Why's that?
 * Oboro: Braiding and weaving is usually a solo thing. Up to now, I've done it by myself, and I never had anyone who shared my interests. But teaching you made me feel like I was making a friend I can talk about it with.
 * Kaden: I'm glad you feel that way! I'd ask you to teach me again, but I know I don't have a talent for this stuff.
 * Oboro: You got that right... Then again, the harder you work, the sweeter the payoff is!
 * Kaden: Are you saying...?
 * Oboro: Yup. I'm gonna be extra strict and whip you into shape! The last lesson was a cakewalk compared to what I've got planned! Get ready!

 * Kaden: Yup! You were really patient with me, so thanks for that.
 * Oboro: I'm not sure which of us worked harder. But you toufhed it out, so I'm prepared to call that a win. So, what are you going to use the cord for?
 * Kaden: Um... Well...
 * Oboro: Heh, I didn't think I was asking such a tough question.
 * Kaden: I'll let you decide what it's for.
 * Oboro: Wait, huh?
 * Kaden: I want you to have this, Oboro... as a symbol of my feelings for you.
 * Oboro: Your... what?!
 * Kaden: I was really moved at how much you believed in me and pushed me forward. It wasn't long ago that I still though I could never have done this. Seeing you so passionate about it made me fall for you...
 * Oboro: Kaden...
 * Kaden: I made it out of red and white thread, since those colors bring people together. I figured a red-and-white cord would get my feelings across. I promised myself that once I finished the cord, I'd tell you... I... I love you.
 * Oboro: ... Well,s hoot. You beat me to it.
 * Kaden: What?
 * Oboro: Seeing you try and fail and keep trying really impressed me. And you actually listened to all the silly stories I told you about my hobby... The one day I realized the moments I spent with you were something special.
 * Kaden: Are you saying what I think you're saying?
 * Oboro: Yeah. I love you too, Kaden.
 * Kaden: Yay! Then we'll be together forever, right?

 * Oboro: Rinkah! Wait.
 * Rinkah: Wh-what's up?
 * Oboro: The way you eat...especially the mess you leave behind...it's a lot to clean up. Could you try to start eating more carefully?
 * Rinkah: Carefully? Like how?
 * Oboro: Like, don't spray the meat's juices all over the tablecloth! Or leave chunks of food on the floor!
 * Rinkah: Hmph. Maybe that's not how YOU eat. But the Flame Tribe always digs into their meals with both hands! We wolf our food down like actual wolves! Someone told me once I should use utensils when eating with you people...but I assumed they were joking.
 * Oboro: Huh...so table manners are different where you come from? Well, be a messy eater if you want, but I'm the one who has to clean it up. So like it or not, I'm going to teach you the basics of eating with utensils.
 * Rinkah: What, you're serious? That's going too far...
 * Oboro: Then can you eat without making such an ungodly mess?

 * Oboro: That’s it. Don’t hold it in your fist like it's a sword. You need to grip it between your fingers instead. That helps give you finer control.

 * Oboro: again?! This is the fifth time…
 * Rinkah: I keep telling you, this is a waste of time!
 * Oboro: Not at all! There’s lots of reasons to stick with it. You can eat anything—even fish, I know you love fish—without leaving a mess!
 * Rinkah: Why would I not just bite into the fish? That way, I can spit out the bones later. Or heck, just eat them too!
 * Oboro: Yeah, see…that’s a good way to guarantee a mess. But if you ate it clean, you'd get ALL the meat on those bones.
 * Rinkah: Hmm?
 * Oboro: You’ve been leaving prime meat behind! Your horrible table manners mean you're not getting all the fish on your plate. Doesn’t it frustrate you to waste food?
 * Rinkah: I…I'm wasting food? Ugh, I guess you're right. I hate to admit it, but…
 * Oboro: There’s still a plate of cooked fish left from tonight’s dinner. Why don’t you watch me to see how you do it?
 * Rinkah: S-sure…
 * (scene transition)
 * Rinkah: Wow! How'd you do that?! There's nothing but bones and skin left! I've never seen anything so clean… It's like art, the way you eat!
 * Oboro: That’s the kind of thing you can do with utensils. You get all the meat, while leaving the plate and tablecloth clean of bones.
 * Rinkah: You're really starting to sell me on this. Show me again!

 * Oboro: Hey, I shouldn’t take all the credit. You worked hard to learn.
 * Rinkah: You know, it's weird. Eating without wasting food is satisfying in a different way than stuffing yourself.
 * Oboro: *nod*Doing it that way shows your respect for the cook and the gifts of the land. That’s what I think, at least.
 * Rinkah: So that’s the Hoshidan philosophy, huh? Interesting. I’d like to understand your mind-set better and not be so closed off.
 * Oboro: That’s the spirit! The better we get to know each other, the less distance there’ll be between us.
 * Rinkah: Yeah. Hey, I should teach you how we eat in the Flame Tribe someday! Though it’ll be too messy here. Maybe we should take a hunting trip to the mountains.
 * Oboro: I bet that would be fun. Thanks!
 * Rinkah: Wait’ll you join in a traditional Flame Tribe feast! We sink our teeth into our kill and spray it's juices in appreciation for it's life.

 * Benny: D-don't even joke. I have nightmares about that face...
 * Oboro: Oh, sorry. So let's see these charms you made!
 * Benny: They look like this...
 * Oboro: Wow, is this made out of crystals? This one looks like a tiny doll... Did you use animal bones for this one? Nohrian charms are so strange.
 * Benny: Are they different in Hoshido?
 * Oboro: There are things that look like these. But our charms usually come in a little pouch, with paper seals or spirit stones. Every one is unique as far as what it's made out of. I've always been fascinated with them, coming from a line of tailors and all. Sometimes if I have fabric left over from a project, I'll make a charm or two.
 * Benny: I see. I'd be interested in taking a look at your charms.
 * Oboro: Sure! We can swap next time we see each other. I'll make a Hoshido-style one, and you make one like they do in Nohr.
 * Benny: Easy. But... you're sure you want a Nohrian charm?
 * Oboro: It's not a problem. I hate Nohr and everything they stand for, but you--you're my friend!

 * Benny: Oh... um... Not exactly. If you wear that, you'll be protected. By me.
 * Oboro: Huh?
 * Benny: It's an engagement ring. If you were my fiancee. I'd always protect you... B-because I love you, Oboro.
 * Oboro: Benny...?
 * Benny: But you hate everything from Nohr. And I'm a Nohrian. So that's that. I'll understand if you want to give it back. I just had to show how I felt about you...

 * Beruka: You seem hostile. I notice you're still making a distinction of Hoshidan and Nohrian forces. Does that mean even though we're allies, we're still divided?
 * Oboro: You're overcomplicating things. I just hold a grudge against Nohrians, that's all.
 * Beruka: Ah. It still feels like you have something personal against me.
 * Oboro: Only after I found out you used to be an assassin.
 * Beruka: Why's that?
 * Oboro: My parents ran a clothing shop when I was young. They were out in Nohr making a delivery when some bandits attacked. I watched them die from the back of the wagon.
 * Beruka: Wait. Tailors? On their way to Nohr?
 * Oboro: Yeah, why? Do you know something about this?

 * Beruka: I want to talk.
 * Oboro: Beruka!
 * Beruka: Calm down. I'm ready to explain myself now. I needed to sort out my thoughts first.
 * Oboro: Sorry... But yeah, I have time.
 * Beruka: Then I'll tell you everything. The man who adopted me ran a secret assassins' guild. Though he took me in, he didn't exactly treat me like a daughter. The only thing he taught me was how to kill.
 * Oboro: ...
 * Beruka: One day, he said something strange after coming home from a job. He said the mark that day was too easy. He didn't enjoy it, because he felt more like a highwayman than an assassin. I only heard him talk like that two times. That was one of them.
 * Oboro: So on that day...your foster father killed my parents?
 * Beruka: Yes. He said his targets were clothes merchants en route to Nohr.
 * Oboro: But why? Why kill them?
 * Beruka: Your parents' business was booming. They were known to have close ties to Hoshidan nobility. So it's natural that powerful figures in Nohr would want them dead.
 * Oboro: Grrr... Mother! Father! Who is this man who adopted you?! Where is he now?! I'll find him and avenge my parents!
 * Beruka: No. You won't.
 * Oboro: What?! If you're planning on protecting him, then I'm done with you.
 * Beruka: You don't understand. He's dead.
 * Oboro: What...?
 * Beruka: I know, because I killed him.
 * Oboro: A-are you serious?
 * Beruka: When I got older, and moved into taking on my own assassination jobs... I received a contract. The target was my foster father.
 * Oboro: That's why you killed him? The man who raised you as his own?!
 * Beruka: Yes. I killed him using the skills he taught me. I never hesitated. These things are more common than you might think in the world of assassins.
 * Oboro: B-but why? Why did he have to die?
 * Beruka: Any assassin who works long enough becomes a liability. Veteran assassins are commonly silenced to bury whatever secrets they know. With his last breath, he said it was time to pay his dues. That was the second time I heard him talk like that.
 * Oboro: So...I can never get my revenge! ARRRGH!
 * Beruka: That's right. He's gone.
 * Oboro: ...
 * Beruka: You can kill me instead, though.
 * Oboro: What? N-now wait a minute! Why would I kill you? On what planet does that make sense?
 * Beruka: I killed the object of your hatred. So you should hate me instead. It has to come spilling out somewhere. You need someone to get revenge on. I don't think you can go on for long without a scapegoat.
 * Oboro: ...
 * Beruka: So I volunteer.
 * Oboro: ...I'll pass, thanks.
 * Beruka: Why? Aren't you angry?
 * Oboro: You have no idea. I hate Nohr, your foster father...even you, kind of. But acting on that will only lead to more hate. I know that much. The chain of hate ends in tragedy. We're here to break that chain. Isn't that why we're all here fighting together?
 * Beruka: Oboro...
 * Oboro: Besides, you're a victim too. So I'll say it again, for the record: you might be from Nohr, but I'll still fight alongside you to bring peace to this world.

 * Oboro: Hi, Sophie. Something lift your spirits today?
 * Sophie: It sure did! What you said the other day really cheered me up.
 * Oboro: Oh, I can't take all the credit. Especially when it was probably just you forgetting what had you upset overnight.
 * Sophie: Why do you always have to tease me?
 * Oboro: Haha, sorry to poke fun, honey.
 * Sophie: Oh, that does remind me, though... I made a small mistake at breakfast today. I...accidentally gave the horses the soldiers' meals.
 * Oboro: What?! Oh, Sophie...
 * Sophie: But once I realized my error, I rushed to make fresh meals for everyone. Suddenly, they all joined in to help! It made me really happy.
 * Oboro: Whew. That was decent of them.
 * Sophie: Yeah, I think so too!
 * Oboro: Did you wonder why they would have helped you after that?
 * Sophie: Maybe they were worried that I would burn everything?
 * Oboro: Don't be so down on yourself, honey! They helped you because they admire your spirit. The way you're never down for long.
 * Sophie: They do? I don't know...
 * Oboro: I mean it. You don't have to worry. Just keep being our bright, cheerful Sophie. That's what we all care about.
 * Sophie: OK, Mother! I think I can do that. Oh! Also, I think I found some flowers nearby that I'm sure you'll like. We can go check them out together!
 * Oboro: Yeah, OK. And these flowers aren't any of the ones I... ?
 * Sophie: Don't worry! They aren't the ones you replanted. I didn't pick any in advance, either -- just in case!
 * Oboro: Good girl! See, you're getting it!
 * Sophie: All right! Let's go!

 * Kiragi: Ah, the great outdoors. What a perfect day to do some hunting! The mountains look very appealing... But I did see a lot of game in that field the other day. So many choices!
 * Oboro: Stop right there, Kiragi!
 * Kiragi: Yikes! H-hey, Mom. You sure are good at sneaking these days.
 * Oboro: Did I scare you?
 * Kiragi: Obviously. You look like you're about to attack me!
 * Oboro: Ah ha! That's because you're out here, and you absolutely shouldn't be. What am I going to do with you...
 * Kiragi: I'm really sorry. I promise I'll do it as soon as I get home tonight, OK?
 * Oboro: Yeah right. I've heard that one before. Every time you get back from hunting, you just grab something to eat and hit the hay. Not this time.
 * Kiragi: B-but... I'm so terrible at math, and no good at history...
 * Oboro: I know. That's exactly why you need to actually devote some more time to practicing. I already told you that I would help out with your studies.
 * Kiragi: I can survive being bad at math and history. I don't see what the big deal is.
 * Oboro: You're ridiculously far behind with your studies. It's not good. Your father and I should have realized that much sooner, and we're sorry. But we're all together now, which means we really want to help you get up to speed. I know is doesn't seem like it, but this will be so good for you! Who knows? Maybe you'll even have a little bit of fun!
 * Kiragi: *grumble*
 * Oboro: Let's head home. I know you love hunting, but I think you'll thank me for pushing you.
 * Kiragi: No! This isn't fair! Hunting is the only thing I have to look forward to! Don't try and take that away from me. You may be my mother, but you can't force me to do anything! I'm going hunting, and I don't care whether you like it or not!
 * Oboro: Wait just a minute, Kiragi! That didn't go well...

 * Selkie: Hey, Mom! What are you doing? Wanna go outside and play?
 * Oboro: Oh, honey, you're a wreck! All muddy and—Wait, is this blood?!
 * Selkie: Yep! I was exploring in the forest, and I think I fell off a cliff or two. Heehee!
 * Oboro: Is this a joke?! Are you trying to give your mother a heart attack?! Oh gods, it's not a joke, is it! Do you need to see a surgeon?!
 * Selkie: Aww, I'm fine. I just scraped my knees a little bit. Everything still works the way it's supposed to. See?
 * Oboro: All right, all right. I'm glad you didn't break any bones. Tough I wish you'd take better care of your clothes... Selkie, I know you're at that age when you're a big bundle of energy. But you have to be careful!
 * Selkie: Grr, that's no fun! What am I supposed to do?
 * Oboro: Playing inside can be fun. A lot fewer heights to worry about indoors, too. You could read a book, or paint a picture or pester your father.
 * Selkie: I dunno...sounds boring. Oh! I have an idea! Let's play dress-up! We can put on makeup and everything.
 * Oboro: You're interested in fashion and makeup and things? Since when? Wait, what am I complaining about? This is perfect! Makeover time it is!
 * Selkie: Yay! Let's do it! Gimme that lipstick!
 * Oboro: All in good time, honey. First, I need to think about what would look best on you. Give me a few days, and we'll get you looking fabulous!
 * Selkie: All right...this is gonna be great!

 * Oboro: Ready for your makeover, Selkie?
 * Selkie: Oh yeah! Bring it on!
 * Oboro: I'd given up hope long ago that my wild child would ever be interested in this stuff. But it's finally happening! OK, Selkie, where do you want to start? Hair? Nails?
 * Selkie: War paint! Right under the eyes with lipstick! I want green―do you have green?
 * Oboro: Well, for facial makeup, you really want to apply a layer of foundation first.
 * Selkie: You mean this powdery stuff? I think it's gonna make me sneeze. AH-CHOO! Oh no... it's everywhere!
 * Oboro: Selkie! Do you know how hard this stuff is to find?!
 * Selkie: *sniff I'm sorry, Mom. I'm screwing everything up, aren't I?
 * Oboro: It's OK, honey. Nobody gets it right their first time. Not even humans. Like most things, it's easier to learn by watching someone else. So today, I'll put the makeup on the way you want it, and you can watch me!
 * Selkie: Really? OK...that sounds good.
 * Oboro: Just sit still for me, honey. There we go. You mentioned wanting lipstick under the eyes—what overall effect are we going for?
 * Selkie: Fierce! I want to look like I could rip your head off with my teeth. Rawr! I mean, not YOUR head, Mom. Anyway, make me look fierce!
 * Oboro: Fierce it is! It'll take a brave man to approach you by the time I'm done!

 * Selkie: Hey, Mom! Guess what?
 * Oboro: Someone seems happy today! What's up?
 * Selkie: I got so many compliments on the makeup you did for me! People said that I looked terrifying!
 * Oboro: Nailed it!
 * Selkie: Uh-huh! There's just one problem...
 * Oboro: There... there is?
 * Selkie: Well, I loved the makeup, but it took so long to put on. I'd kind of rather spend that time outside playing and running.
 * Oboro: But you... But I...
 * Selkie: Oh! But that doesn't mean I didn't like being with you! It was really fun to see how you put it all together. I guess what I'm saying is... Sometimes I want to do makeup with you, but other times... I want to run and play outside with you!
 * Oboro: Well... I guess I should count my blessings that makeup is still on the table. So that's fine with me!
 * Selkie: It is? Yay!
 * Oboro: You were so patient and sat so still last time that you can pick what to do today. We can fly a kite, or play hide-and-seek, or whatever you want!
 * Selkie: Aww, you're the best! I'm so glad you're my mom!
