 * Kana: Mama! Mama!
 * Avatar: Yes, Kana? What is it?
 * Kana: I picked some pretty yellow daisies for you, Mama!
 * Avatar: Wow! They're beautiful! Thank you!
 * Kana: Do you really like them?
 * Avatar: Yes, I love them! But you've been bringing me an awful lot of flowers lately. What's got into you?
 * Kana: I just remembered that when I was real little, we'd go looking at flowers together. You always smiled so much, and I love your smile, Mama! So I decided to start bringing you lots and lots of flowers!
 * Avatar: Heehee. I didn't realize you were keeping such a close eye on me... But I do have a small favor to ask of you.
 * Kana: Anything, Mama. What do you need?
 * Avatar: Remember how I told you that flowers are living things, just like you and me? It means that when you pick them, you're hurting them. And then they can't eat or drink anymore, so they start to wither away...
 * Kana: Oh no! You mean I've been hurting the flowers?! It was an accident! I'm so sorry, flowers! I never meant to...
 * Avatar: I'm sure they'll forgive you, now that you understand. But promise me that you won't pick anymore, OK?
 * Kana: OK! But...if I don't pick them, how can I show you all the neat flowers I find?
 * Avatar: Easy! Just come tell me when you've found some, and we'll go together to look.
 * Kana: Really? You won't be too busy?
 * Avatar: Never for you, my little Kana-bean.
 * Kana: OK, then it's a deal!
 * Avatar: I'll do you one better—it's a promise!

 * Kana: La lala leelo lu-lime! ♪ And now—guess what—it's Mama time!
 * Avatar: Well now, aren't we in a good mood?
 * Kana: Of course I'm in a good mood! I found the best flowers for us to go look at! You're going to love them—I'm sure of it! Look! There they are, Mama. Right over there!
 * Avatar: You mean those white ones over there? They're lovely. So strong and elegant, yet so tranquil.
 * Kana: Mhm! I love them! They kind of reminded me of you, Mama.
 * Avatar: M-me? Like a flower? I don't think I'm quite as pretty as these, Kana... But...it is very flattering. Teehee. Thank you.
 * Kana: Mhm! Flowers might be pretty, Mama, but I think your smile is even prettier!
 * Avatar: Oh goodness. You're too much. But you know what? I think your smile is even more beautiful than mine!
 * Kana: Really? Yay!
 * Avatar: Oh, that reminds me. I have something to show you. I think you'll like it.
 * Kana: Oooh. Is it something good? Can I see it right now? What is it?
 * Avatar: It's—
 * Kana: Ah! Wait, no, never mind! I want it to be a surprise!
 * Avatar: Heh. All right. I'll keep it secret until we can sit down and look at it together.
 * Kana: Woohoo! I can't wait!

 * Kana: Mama, I'm here! Where's that thing you wanted to show me?
 * Avatar: Hello, Kana. I've got it right here for you.
 * Kana: This is such a big book! OH WOW! And look at all these flowers! Where did you get them all?
 * Avatar: I got them from you, silly. These are the ones you've been bringing me. I pressed them between the pages and allowed them to dry to preserve them. I thought it would be the perfect way for me to keep all your little gifts safe.
 * Kana: They're amazing! Like, really, really amazing! I hadn't realized how many flowers I'd brought you... Oh, Mama. Thank you for taking such good care of the flowers I got you.
 * Avatar: No, no, I should be thanking you. Your flowers have given me so much peace in such trying times.
 * Kana: You're welcome! It was my pleasure!
 * Avatar: You know, we didn't pick those white flowers we saw the other day... But we did make some wonderful memories together. I hope we have many more just like them. How about you? Will you keep making beautiful memories with me, Kana?
 * Kana: Of course I will! I love you so much! You're the best Mama that ever Mama'd!
 * Avatar: I love you too. You are the most precious thing in my world, you know that?
 * Kana: Teehee! Aww, you're making me blush!

 * Kana: Hey Papa? There's something I wanted to ask you about...
 * Jakob: But of course. What do you require?
 * Kana: It's Mama. She's always treating me like a child.
 * Jakob: This is not unusual. You are her child, after all. And last I checked, you still retained a number of your milk teeth.
 * Kana: I know, I know. I just mean I’m not as much of a child as I used to be. I want to help out more. But whenever I try, she just tells me to go play with my friends instead.
 * Jakob: I see. You wish for some responsibilities of your own.
 * Kana: Right! I want to show her that she can rely on me. Can you think of any things I could do for her?
 * Jakob: I can think of many things, but you lack the training required. The art of the manservant is a sacred one, requiring years of dedication and service! Without both, I would not be the icon of immaculate professionalism you see now. Only through this training did I become capable of tending to her every need. It also taught me how to make a killer cup of joe.
 * Kana: And doing all that makes her happy?
 * Jakob: Oh yes, I would say so. Or I would hope, at the very least.
 * Kana: Oh...
 * Jakob: Oh? What is it?
 * Kana: You always do that stuff for Mama, right? So that's her normal level of happy. But I want to find ways to make Mama even happier than she normally is!
 * Jakob: Happier than having the perfect attendant? I doubt such a method even exists!
 * Kana: I know! Let's have a contest, Papa!
 * Jakob: A contest?
 * Kana: Yeah! We'll have a contest to see which of us can make Mama happier. Between the two of us, I'm sure we can come up with all sorts of things! Who ever gets thanked the most wins.
 * Jakob: A friendly competition between father and son, hm? Intriguing. Very well, then! I accept!
 * Kana: Really? Yay!
 * Jakob: However, you should understand that I've known your mother since childhood. And so, naturally, I know her better than anyone else. Furthermore, I will do nothing by half measures. Not even for you... Do you hear me, Kana?! Prepare yourself, for the day of judgement is upon you!
 * Kana: That's OK with me, Papa. I'm gonna beat you fair and square!
 * Jakob: Hmph. We shall see.

 * Kana: Hey, Papa! I’ve been making a ton of progress on our contest! How about you?
 * Jakob: What? We are only halfway through the contest. Have you no sense of suspense? *sigh* Very well. I suppose I can humor you. Let us see. I have a running tally of the thanks I've received. Here, you may see it.
 * Kana: WOW! That’s a lot! You got all of these already?
 * Jakob: Yes. I've not yet done anything special, but it seems my normal duties are appreciated. I did not realize until now just how many thanks she gives me for my work. It's heartening to say the least.
 * Kana: Hmph! Well I’m not gonna lose! Here, see! I recorded all mine, too. And the total is…um…
 * Jakob: I-impossible! It's a draw?! How can this be?!
 * Kana: It is? It is! Haha! Kana’s gonna beat you big-time, Papa! After all, I don’t have to work, so I can spend all day doing things for Mama!
 * Jakob: What a disgrace... Tell me, what manner of witchcraft have you employed to match me?
 * Kana: Mostly I’ve been trying to help out around camp! I spend each morning making arrows for the fletchers. Then at lunch I chop the bear meat for the cooks and hand out the food. Oh, and at night, I make sure the mounts are all fed and outfitted for the next day. Plus I do a bunch of other little things whenever I have time!
 * Jakob: What?! That’s all it took to make her happy? You didn't even make her tea! Hm. But I suppose that IS a lot of work, in its own way... You really have been growing up, haven't you?
 * Kana: Huh?
 * Jakob: Oh, just a thought. It was not so long ago that you were still in your swaddling clothes. And now, all of a sudden, you’re making real, important contributions to the army. Perhaps I have been treating you as too much of a child as well.
 * Kana: Heehee. Yeah, I’ve been working real hard. Soon there’ll be nothing I can’t do!
 * Jakob: Heh. I believe it. And I bet Avatar is very proud of you.
 * Kana: Mhm! And I'm gonna start working extra hard tomorrow, too! I won't let this end in a draw, Papa!
 * Jakob: Hmph. Neither shall I. Let the best man win!

 * Kana: *grumble*
 * Jakob: Hello, Kana.
 * Kana: Hi, Papa…
 * Jakob: Something the matter? I’d expected you to still be exulting over your victory the other day. Or has besting your old man already lost its novelty?
 * Kana: Oh, no, I’m still happy about that, I guess. It’s just that I was trying to do things for Mama earlier, and she made me stop. She said I should be spending more time playing around with my friends. She still thinks I’m just a kid. Haven’t I shown her I can help out with stuff too? Am I messing up? Is she just pretending I’m doing a good job?
 * Jakob: Oh, is that all? I would not worry, were I you. It has nothing to do with the quality of your work. I promise.
 * Kana: Then why doesn’t she want me to help with anything?
 * Jakob: Avatar, I think, knows full well you’re capable of taking on new responsibilities. But it makes her worry. And it makes her feel sad.
 * Kana: Huh? Why?
 * Jakob: She doesn’t want you to miss out on your childhood. And she doesn’t want to lose her little boy. She’s happy to see you growing up, but she’s worried you won’t need her anymore. Parents are funny like that.
 * Kana: But… I’m just trying to pull my own weight. I don’t get why that would be a bad thing…
 * Jakob: That's all right. I didn't truly understand it myself until I myself became a parent. I do have a suggestion for you, however, if you will hear it. Continue helping around camp for your mother, but don’t work yourself so hard. Take breaks to see your friends and play games and the like. And it wouldn’t hurt to spend some quality time with Mama now and then. Think you can handle that?
 * Kana: But…
 * Jakob: Hm? Do you not want to spend time with your mother?
 * Kana: No, that’s not it! It’s just… I feel like that stuff is for babies.
 * Jakob: No, Kana. It’s not for babies. It’s for children. And your mother wants you to stay a child for just a little while longer. We both do.
 * Kana: Papa…
 * Jakob: Kana, we know that you’re growing up to be a fine young man. But for now… relax. Enjoy yourself. At least a little bit, here and there. Please. For your mother's sake.
 * Kana: OK... Thanks, Papa. I’ll think real hard about everything you’ve said.
 * Jakob: Good. You know… I think it would be good if you spent the night in with your mother. I’ll go talk to her about it now.
 * Kana: Wait! What about you?
 * Jakob: Wha—?! Why would I...?!
 * Kana: I want you to spoil me, too, not just Mama!
 * Jakob: M-me? I don't think I ca—
 * Kana: But, Papa! Don't you need to take a break sometimes too? I thought you wanted me and Mama to be happy!
 * Jakob: W-well, when you put it like that... OK, fine. I'll stay in tonight as well.
 * Kana: Yaaay!
 * Jakob: Heh. A night in with the family, hm? Perhaps I could get used to this…

 * Kana: Hey, Papa? There’s something I wanted to ask you about, if it’s OK…
 * Silas: Sure, Kana. What did you need?
 * Kana: Well, see, its Mama. She’s always treating me like a child.
 * Silas: Well, sure she is. You’re her son. She’ll always think of you as her baby boy.
 * Kana: I know, I know. I just mean I’m not as much of a child as I used to be. I want to help out more. But whenever I try, she just tells me to go play with my friends instead.
 * Silas: I see. You want some responsibilities.
 * Kana: Right! I want to be someone she can rely on. Do you have any ideas for things I could do for her?
 * Silas: Hm… In my case, I usually take her to see new places.
 * Kana: And that makes her happy?
 * Silas: Yeah, she loves it. Growing up, she was kept locked away in a fortress by the King of Nohr. So she relishes every opportunity she gets to see new things.
 * Kana: Oh…
 * Silas: Hm? Something wrong?
 * Kana: I guess I was looking more for special things that I could do for her…
 * Silas: I see. Let me think…

 * Silas: A little friendly competition between father and son, huh? Sounds fun. Count me in.
 * Kana: Really? Yay!
 * Silas: But I should warn you: I AM the love of Avatar’s life. Beating me will be no mean feat. And I don’t intend to go easy on you!
 * Kana: That’s fine with me, Papa. I’m gonna beat you fair and square!
 * Silas: Sounds good to me. Let the games begin!

 * Kana: WOW! That’s a lot! You got all of these already?
 * Silas: Yeah, I wasn’t really expecting to get this many either. I guess I do a lot more for your mother than I’d thought.
 * Kana: Hmph! Well I’m not gonna lose! Here, see! I recorded all mine, too. And the total is…um…

 * Kana: It is? It is! Haha! Kana’s gonna beat you big-time! After all, I don’t have to work, so I can spend all day doing things for mama!
 * Silas: That’s, uh… that’s actually a pretty good point. So you’ve been spending all of every day helping out? What exactly do you do?
 * Kana: Mostly I’ve been trying to help out around camp. I spend each morning making arrows for the fletchers. Then at lunch I chop the vegetables for the cooks and hand out the food. Oh! And at night, I make sure the mounts are all fed and outfitted for the next day. Plus I do a bunch of other little things whenever I have the time!

 * Kana: Heehee. Yeah, I’ve been working real hard. Soon there’ll be nothing I can’t do!
 * Silas: I believe it. And I bet Avatar is very grateful for all the good work you’ve been doing.
 * Kana: “Good work”… Hm. I just realized… Mama hasn’t really been saying “thank you” to me very much. She just tells me “good work” and smiles. It’s kind of a sad smile, come to think of it…
 * Silas: I wouldn’t overthink it. I’m sure she very much appreciates everything you’ve done.
 * Kana: OK, Papa. If you say so… But don’t think this means I’m going to let you win!
 * Silas: Heh. And same to you!

 * Kaze: I see. You want some responsibilities of your own.
 * Kana: Right! I want to show her that she can rely on me. Can you think of any special things that I could do for her?
 * Kaze: Hm. Well, I often give her ointments or scented oils I craft myself. It turns out that a knowledge of medicinal herbs can take you quite far in such things.
 * Kana: Oh...
 * Kaze: Hm? What's wrong?
 * Kana: I guess I was just hoping for things that I could do for her too... I don't know how to make all that stuff like you, Papa.

 * Kana: Well, see, it's Mama. She's always treating me like I'm a little kid.
 * Shura: It's only natural. You are her son, after all. And last I checked, you're not that old yet. I was there when you were born, and I've kept a close eye on your age, you know.
 * Kana: Yeah, I know. I still have some growing up to do. But I just mean I’m not as much of a child as I used to be. I want to help out more. But whenever I try, she just tells me to go play with my friends instead.
 * Shura: Ah, I see. You want some responsibilities.
 * Kana: Right! I want to be someone she can rely on. Do you have any ideas on what I could do to make her happy?
 * Shura: Hm... Well, I guess I just tend to tell her about my life stories. Adventures I went on, people I met, exotic and stinky foods I've ingested, you know.
 * Kana: And that makes her happy?
 * Shura: Oh, yeah. Your mother loves new experiences. I think she was a born adventurer in some ways. Her eyes always have a sparkle in them when she listens to my stories.
 * Kana: Oh…
 * Shura: Eh? What's wrong?

 * Kana: Hey, Papa! I’ve been doing so well for our contest! How about you? Has Mama been thanking you very much lately?

 * Kana: WOW! That’s a lot! And you got all these without doing anything special? That's crazy!
 * Shura: Yeah. I guess I never paid attention to it before, but she thanks me quite a lot. I do more for her than I realized. Haha.
 * Kana: Hmph! Well, I’m not going to let that stand between me and victory! Look, I counted all mine, too! Read them and weep!
 * Shura: You've got the same number as I do... H-heh. Um. Well done, kid.
 * Kana: Mhm! Say good-bye to your crown, Papa! Kana's gonna beat you big-time! After all, I don't have a job, so I can spend all day helping out for Mama!
 * Shura: Well mold my onions, you're a clever one, aren't you? Heheh. Gotta respect that. Just out of curiosity, what all is it you've been doing for her, anyway?
 * Kana: I’ve mostly been helping out around camp. In the mornings, I help make arrows for the archers. Then at lunch, I chop vegetables and give out the food. And at night, I bring Mama her maps and books for planning the war strategy. And I do a bunch of little stuff throughout the day whenever I have time!
 * Shura: Heh. That's pretty impressive. You're really growing up, aren't you?
 * Kana: Huh?
 * Shura: Oh, just a thought. I think I might have been treating you like a child too, is all. It doesn't seem that long since you were still soiling your underclothes. And now, all of a sudden, you're making real, important contributions to the army.
 * Kana: Hehehe! I’ve been working real hard. There’s I can’t do now!
 * Shura: Oh, yeah? We'll see about that. I bet Lyra has been very pleased of all the good work you've been doing.
 * Kana: Hm... I just realized she hasn't actually been saying "thank you" very much. She just tells me I did a god job whenever I finish something. Maybe I haven't been helping her as much as I thought I was...
 * Shura: Hey, now. Don't get down about it. It's probably nothing. I'm sure you're helping her out a ton. More importantly, this means you've been cheating, you little ogre! I knew you couldn't match my score fairly!
 * Kana: Heheh! I guess you're right. I'll just have to work even harder for Mama tomorrow! I'm not gonna lost to you, Papa! I won't sleep until Mama thanks me twice as much!
 * Shura: Hrk... This might be closer than I expected...

 * Shura: Hey there, Kana.
 * Kana: Hi, Papa…
 * Shura: What's with the long face? Where's the smiley Kana we all know and love? Our last tally has you in the lead. Shouldn't you be basking in the glory of your victory?
 * Kana: I am still happy about that, I guess, but... I was trying to help out Mama earlier, and she made me stop. She said I should be spending more time playing around with my friends. She still thinks I’m just a kid. Haven’t I shown her I can help with stuff too? Or am I messing up? Is she just pretending I'm doing a good job?
 * Shura: Ah, so that's what it is. Well, don't worry too much about it, yeah? I know your mother really does think you're doing a wonderful job. And I'm sure she's very proud of you.
 * Kana: But she told me she'd rather me not help with anything...
 * Shura: Of course she would. But it's not because you're not doing good work. Lyra is very happy that you're growing up, but she's also very sad.
 * Kana: Why would she be sad?
 * Shura: She doesn't want you to miss out on being a child. Lots of people are never given the chance to have much of a childhood. And beyond that, she wants to be able to take care of you. See, parents are fickle creatures. It might take a lot of effort to raise a kid, but it's also a little sad when your realize that they don't need you anymore.
 * Kana: I still don't really get it...
 * Shura: To be honest, neither do I. But that doesn't mean it's not true. How about his: keep helping your mother, but don't work for hours on end every day. Take breaks and see your friends, play some games, do whatever. Show her that you can still be a child sometimes, too. If you do that, I'm sure your mother will be very happy. It might even help if you asked to sleep in our bed sometimes, too.
 * Kana: B-but…
 * Shura: Hm?
 * Kana: It's just...only babies need to sleep with their parents. I don't want to be a baby.
 * Shura: No, Kana, that's just it. It's not for babies. It's for children. And she doesn't want you to grow up too fast. Neither of us do...
 * Kana: Papa…
 * Shura: Kana, we know that you're growing and that you want to be more reliable. You're going to be a great man, someday. Everyone knows it. But for now...just relax. Enjoy yourself. At least for a little bit, here and there.
 * Kana: OK. Thanks, Papa. I’ll think about everything you've said.
 * Shura: Good. You know… I think maybe you and your mother should spend some time together tonight. Have a relaxing night in, just the two of you.
 * Kana: Wait! Aren't you going to stay with us too?
 * Shura: Me? Oh, no no no. I've got plans with some of the others in the camp, and—
 * Kana: But, Papa! Don't you need to take a break sometimes too? And I thought you wanted me to be happy!
 * Shura: ...Hmph. All right. Fine.
 * Kana: Yaaay!
 * Shura: Staying in as a family, huh? I never really saw myself as that kind of guy. Heh, I guess little Kana isn't the only one who's starting to change.

 * Kana: Hey, Papa. Can I talk to you about something?
 * Ryoma: Sure, Kana. What is it?
 * Kana: It's Mama...I feel like she's always treating me like a child.
 * Ryoma: Well, that's only natural. You're her son, after all. And you are still quite young.
 * Kana: I know, I know. I just mean I’m not as much of a child as I used to be. I want to help out with things. But whenever I try, she just tells me to go play with my friends instead.
 * Ryoma: Ah, I see. You want some responsibilities of your own.
 * Kana: Yeah! I want to show her she can rely on me. I wonder if there's anything I could do for her...
 * Ryoma: Let me think...in my case, I try to help her with her training, whenever we have the chance.
 * Kana: And that makes her happy?
 * Ryoma: Yeah, we both enjoy breaking a sweat together.
 * Kana: Oh…
 * Ryoma: Eh? You seem unsatisfied.
 * Kana: Yeah...I don't think I could really help Mama with her training very much. And besides, that's a special Papa-Mama thing. I don't want to be a copycat. Oh, I know! Let's make it a contest, Papa!
 * Ryoma: A contest? What kind of contest?
 * Kana: Yeah! We'll have a contest to see which of us can make Mama happier! Between the two of us, I'm sure we can come up with all sorts of things. Whoever Mama thanks the most wins!
 * Ryoma: A little father-son competition, hm? Interesting. Very well, then. I accept your challenge.
 * Kana: Really? Yay!
 * Ryoma: But remember: I am your mother's husband. I know her better than anyone else. And I don't intend to go easy on you. Besting me will be no mean feat.

 * Kana: WOW! That’s a so many! And you got all these already?
 * Ryoma: I was as surprised as you are. I guess I do more for your mother than I thought.
 * Kana: Hmph...well, I’m not going to lose! Here, see! I recorded all mine too! And the total is…um…
 * Ryoma: Ghhk! You have the same number as me!
 * Kana: I do? I do! Haha! Kana's gonna beat you big-time, Papa! I don't have to work like you, so I've been spending all day doing things for her.
 * Ryoma: So that was your secret. And what kind of things have you been doing for her?
 * Kana: Mostly I’ve been trying to help out around camp! I spend each morning making arrows for the fletchers. Then, at lunch, I slice the bear meat and hand out food to the soldiers. Oh, and at night I make sure the mounts are all fed and outfitted for the next day. Plus I do a bunch of other little things whenever I have the time!
 * Ryoma: Wow. That's quite a lot of work for someone your age. I'm impressed. You really have been growing up, haven't you?
 * Kana: Huh?
 * Ryoma: Oh, just a thought. It wasn't so long ago that you were still in swaddling clothes. Now, all of a sudden, you’re making real, important contributions to the army. Maybe I've been treating you like too much of a child as well.
 * Kana: Heehee. Yeah, I’ve been working real hard. Soon there’ll be nothing I can’t do!
 * Ryoma: I believe it. And I bet your mother has been very proud of all your hard work.
 * Kana: I hope so! And I'm gonna make her even prouder tomorrow!
 * Ryoma: Hrm...I may have to start taking this competition a bit more seriously. You're turning out to be quite the worthy opponent.

 * Ryoma: What's the matter? I expected you to still be exulting after your little victory the other day. Or has besting your father already lost its charm?
 * Kana: Oh, no, I’m still happy about that, I guess. It’s just that I was trying to do things for Mama earlier, and she made me stop. She said I should be spending more time playing around with my friends again. She still thinks I’m just a kid. Haven’t I shown her I'm old enough to help out around camp?
 * Ryoma: I see, so that's it. I wouldn't worry. It's not you. You're doing good work, I promise.
 * Kana: Then why doesn’t she want me to help with anything?
 * Ryoma: I think your mother knows full well you're capable of handling these things. But seeing you acting so grown up makes her feel sad.
 * Kana: Huh? Why?
 * Ryoma: Well, she doesn't want to lose her baby boy. She's very, very proud that you're growing up and working so hard. Bu at the same time, she's worried it means you won't need her anymore. It's a little silly, but it's true. Parents can be funny like that.
 * Kana: So...what should I do?
 * Ryoma: I'd say to keep helping out around camp, but don't work yourself so hard. Take breaks to see your friends, play games, go on adventures. You know. And try to spend some quality time with your mother every now and then. Think you can handle that?
 * Kana: But…
 * Ryoma: What's wrong? Do you not want to spend time with your mother?
 * Kana: No, that’s not it! It’s just… I feel like that stuff is for babies.
 * Ryoma: No, Kana, it’s not for babies. It’s for children. And your mother wants you to stay a child for just a little while longer. We both do.
 * Kana: Papa…
 * Ryoma: Kana, we know that you're growing and that you want more responsibilities. And we know that you're going to be a fine young man someday. But for now...relax. Don't try to grow up so quickly.
 * Kana: OK. Thanks, Papa. I’ll think real hard about everything you said.
 * Ryoma: Good. You know… I think it would be good if you spent the night in with your mother. I will go talk to her about it.
 * Kana: Wait! What about you?
 * Ryoma: Me? No, I've got too much work.
 * Kana: But, Papa! I thought you wanted me to enjoy my childhood. It wouldn't be much of a childhood without a papa...
 * Ryoma: Wh-when you put it like that...all right, all right, fine. Now, go tell your mother.
 * Kana: Yaaay!
 * Ryoma: *sigh* A future king who can't even refuse a request from his own son...but...I suppose a good king must always be at the service of his subjects.

 * Kana: And that whistle makes her happy?
 * Saizo: Yes. When she blows on it, I appear by her side immediately. She has said it has been very useful when she required assistance on the battlefield...Or when she had something heavy to be carried...Or when she wanted sugar for her tea. The point is she enjoys the gift.

 * Azama: What's so strange about that? You are a child, after all. Don't try and tell me that you're actually older and now you want a bigger allowance... I was there when you were born and I've kept careful track of your age.
 * Kana: No, of course not! I just mean I'm not as much of a child now, and I want to help out more. But whenever I ask to help, Mama just tells me to go play with my friends instead...

 * Kana: Right! I want to do things for her! Do you have any ideas for things I could do to make her happy?

 * Azama: Of course you should. You're still a child, after all! Also, obviously Avatar is happy that you're growing up, but she's also sad.
 * Kana: Why would she be sad?
 * Azama: It may be troublesome to raise children sometimes, but... It's also sad when you realize that they are growing up and won't need you.
 * Kana: I don't really understand, Papa...
 * Azama: To be honest, neither do I. But that doesn't mean it isn't true. I have an idea for you, though. Keep helping your mother, but sometimes try to avoid having to do a lot of work. It'll make her happy to see that you're still her child.
 * Kana: B-but...
 * Azama: Something wrong? Most kids—and parents—love to avoid work when they can.
 * Kana: No, that's not it! It's just...I don't want to feel like I'm a really lazy person.
 * Azama: Hahaha, that's all you're worried about? Your mom and I will love you no matter how lazy you appear to be.
 * Kana: Papa...
 * Azama: We know you're growing up and that you want to be reliable. But for now, enjoy being the kid you are!
 * Kana: OK... Thanks, Papa! I'll think real hard about everything you've said!
 * Azama: Good! Now then, I'm going to ask Avatar if she wants to relax with you tonight.
 * Kana: Wait! Aren't you gonna relax with us, too?
 * Azama: Me? Oh, no no no. I've got some plans with other people in the camp...
 * Kana: But I want to relax and do nothing with both of you! Can't we all relax together?
 * Azama: Hrmph... Oh, Kana. I guess I have no choice...
 * Kana: Yaaay!
 * Azama: Staying in as a family, hm? Never though this would be a thing for me. I suppose Kana isn't the only one starting to change.

 * Kana: Hey, Papa? Can I talk to you about something?
 * Hinata: Sure, Kana. What's up?
 * Kana: Its Mama. I feel like she’s always treating me like a child.
 * Hinata: Eh, that's only natural, right? You're her boy. And you ARE still pretty young.
 * Kana: I know, I know. I just mean I’m not as young as I used to be. I want to help out with things. But whenever I try, she just tells me to go play with my friends instead.
 * Hinata: Ah, I see. You want some responsibilities of your own.
 * Kana: Right! I want to do something for her. Can you think of any special things I could do for her?
 * Hinata: Eh? I dunno. I guess whenever I train, I always try to do it with her. I'm not really a romantic type, I guess... haha.
 * Kana: Oh...
 * Hinata: Er... Sorry I couldn't be of more help...
 * Kana: Oh, I know! Let’s have a contest, Papa!
 * Hinata: A contest?
 * Kana: Yeah! We’ll have a contest to see which of us can make Mama happier! Between the two of us, I’m sure we can come up with all sorts of things. Whoever gets thanked the most wins!
 * Hinata: A little father-son competition, huh? Count me in!
 * Kana: Really? Yay!
 * Hinata: But remember, I'm Avatar's husband. I know her better than anyone. Beating me isn't gonna be easy! And I won't be pulling any punches!
 * Kana: That’s fine by me, Papa. I’m gonna beat you fair and square!
 * Hinata: All right, then. Let's do our best!

 * Kana: Hey, Papa! I’ve been making so much progress on our contest! How about you?
 * Hinata: Well, I haven’t done anything special yet, but I think I’ve been thanked a whole bunch. Let’s see... I’ve got the tally right here. Take a look.
 * Kana: WOW! That’s a lot! You got all of these already?
 * Hinata: Yeah, I'm as surprised as you. I guess I do more for your mother than I thought. Heh. Maybe I'm a pretty good husband after all!
 * Kana: Hmph... Well, I’m still not gonna lose! Here, see! I recorded all mine, too. And the total is…um…
 * Hinata: H-hey! That's the same number I got! How did you do this?
 * Kana: It is? It is! Haha! Kana’s gonna beat you big-time, Papa! I don’t have to work like you, so I can spend all day helping her!
 * Hinata: So that's your secret... What exactly have you been doing, anyway?
 * Kana: Mostly I’ve been trying to help out around camp. I spend each morning making arrows for the fletchers. Then, at lunch, I slice the bear meat and hand out food to the soldiers. Oh, and at night I make sure the mounts are all fed and outfitted for the next day. Plus I do a bunch of other little things whenever I have the time!
 * Hinata: That’s quite a lot of work. I'm impressed.... You really have been growing up, haven’t you?
 * Kana: Huh?
 * Hinata: Oh, just a thought. It wasn't so long ago you were still in your swaddling clothes. Now, all of a sudden, you’re making real, important contributions to the army. Maybe I've been treating you like too much of a child as well.
 * Kana: Heehee. Yeah, I’ve been working real hard. Soon there’ll be nothing I can’t do!
 * Hinata: I believe it. And I bet your mother is very proud of you.
 * Kana: I hope so. And I'm gonna work even harder for her tomorrow!
 * Hinata: Gah. Looks like this might be harder than I'd thought...

 * Hinata: Hey, Kana.
 * Kana: Hi, Papa…
 * Hinata: What’s wrong? I’d expected you to still be exulting over your victory the other day. Or has beating your old man lost its novelty already?
 * Kana: Oh, no, I’m still happy about that, I guess. It’s just that I was trying to do things for Mama earlier, and she made me stop. She said I should be spending more time playing around with my friends. She still thinks I’m just a kid. Haven’t I shown her I'm old enough to help out around camp?
 * Hinata: Ah, so that's it. I wouldn't worry. It's not you. You're doing good work, I promise.
 * Kana: Then why doesn’t she want me to help with anything?
 * Hinata: I think your mother knows full well you’re capable of handling the work. But seeing you acting so grown up makes her feel sad.
 * Kana: Huh? Why?
 * Hinata: Well, she doesn’t want you to lose her baby boy. She's very, very proud that you're growing up and working so hard. But at the same time, she's worried it means you wont need her anymore. It's a little contradictory, but it's true. Parents can be funny like that.
 * Kana: So...what should I do?
 * Hinata: I'd say to keep doing things around camp, but don't work yourself so hard. Take breaks to see your friends, play games, go on adventures. You know. And try to spend some quality time with your mother every now and then. Do you think you can handle that?
 * Kana: But…
 * Hinata: What? You don't want to spend time with your mother?
 * Kana: No, that’s not it! It’s just… I feel like that stuff is for babies.
 * Hinata: No, Kana. It’s not for babies. It’s for children. And your mother wants you to stay a child for just a little while longer. We both do.
 * Kana: Papa…
 * Hinata: Kana, we know that you’re growing up and that you want more responsibilities. And we know that you're going to grow up to be a fine young man someday. But for now… relax. Don't try to grow up too quickly.
 * Kana: OK. Thanks, Papa. I’ll think real hard about everything you’ve said.
 * Hinata: Good. You know… I think it would be nice if you spent the night in with your mother. I'll go talk to her about it.
 * Kana: Wait! What about you?
 * Hinata: Wh-what?! No no no no no, I've got other thing —
 * Kana: But, Papa! Don’t you want Mama and me to be happy? I thought you wanted me to enjoy my childhood... It's not much of a childhood without a papa...
 * Hinata: Well, when you put it like that... OK, OK. I'll let your mother know.
 * Kana: Yaaay!
 * Hinata: *sigh* Sometimes I'm not sure which one of us gives the orders around here.... A night in with the family, eh? You know, it doesn't sound all that bad. In fact, I think I kind of like it.

 * Xander: Hm? What's wrong?
 * Kana: I don't know. I guess I don't feel like my sparring with Mama would help her very much...
 * Xander: Ah, I see.
 * Kana: Oh, I know! Let's have a contest, Papa!
 * Xander: A contest?
 * Kana: Yeah! We'll have a contest to see which of us can make Mama happier! Between the two of us, I'm sure we can come up with all sorts of things! Whoever Mama thanks the most wins!
 * Xander: Oh? You wish to challenge me? Very well, then. I accept.
 * Kana: Really? Yay!
 * Xander: But remember: I am your mother's husband. I know her better than anyone else. And I do not intend to go easy on you. Besting me will be no easy feat.
 * Kana: That's fine by me, Papa. I'm gonna beat you fair and square!
 * Xander: Heh. Then may the best man win!

 * Kana: Hey, Papa! I’ve been making so much progress in our contest! How about you?
 * Xander: Well, I haven’t done anything too special yet, but she has thanked me many times. Let’s see—I’ve got my tally right here.
 * Kana: WOW! That’s so many!
 * Xander: Yeah, I am as surprised as you are. I suppose I do more for your mother than I thought. It's a nice feeling. Perhaps I'm a passable husband after all.
 * Kana: Hmph...Well, I’m not going to lose! Here, see! I've been tallying mine too! And the total is…um…
 * Xander: That would be...the same number as I.
 * Kana: It is? It is! Haha! I'm gonna beat you after all, Papa! I don't have to work like you, so I've been spending all day doing things for her!
 * Xander: So that's your secret. And what, precisely, have you done?
 * Kana: Mostly I’ve been trying to help out around camp. I spend each morning making arrows for the archers. Then, at lunch, I slice the bear meat and hand out food to the soldiers. Oh, and at night I make sure the mounts are all fed and outfitted for the next day. Plus I do a bunch of other little things whenever I have the time!
 * Xander: That's an enormous amount of work for someone your age. I'm impressed. You really have been growing up, haven't you?
 * Kana: Huh?
 * Xander: Oh, just a thought. It wasn't so long ago you were still in your swaddling clothes. Now, all of a sudden, you're making a real, important contribution to the army. Maybe I've been treating you too much like a child as well.
 * Kana: Heehee. Yeah, I’ve been working real hard. Soon there’ll be nothing I can’t do!
 * Xander: I believe it. And I bet your mother is very proud of you.
 * Kana: I hope so! And I'm gonna make her even prouder tomorrow!
 * Xander: You're turning out to be a worthy adversary, little Kana. I cannot afford to be careless, or you may just secure the win.

 * Xander: Hello, Kana.
 * Kana: Hi, Papa...
 * Xander: What's the matter? I expected you to still be exulting after your little victory the other day. Or has besting your old man in a contest already lost its charm?
 * Kana: Oh, no. I'm still happy about that, I guess. It's just that I was trying to do things for Mama earlier, and she made me stop. She said I should be spending more time playing around with my friends again. She still thinks I'm just a kid. Haven't I shown her I'm old enough to handle helping out around camp?
 * Xander: So that's it. I wouldn't worry. It's not you. You're doing good work, I promise.
 * Kana: Then why doesn't she want me to help with anything?
 * Xander: I think your mother knows full well that you're capable of handling these things. But seeing you acting so grown up makes her feel sad.
 * Kana: Huh? Why?
 * Xander: Well, she doesn't want to lose her baby boy. She is very, very proud that you're growing up and working so hard. But at the same time, she's worried it means you won't need her anymore. It's a little silly, but it's true. Parents can be funny like that.
 * Kana: So...what should I do?
 * Xander: I'd say to keep helping out around camp, but don't work yourself so hard. Take frequent breaks to see your friends, play games, and go on adventures. And try to spend some quality time with your mother every now and then. Think you can handle that?
 * Kana: But...
 * Xander: What? Do you not want to spend time with your mother?
 * Kana: No, that's not it! It's just... I feel like that stuff is for babies.
 * Xander: No, Kana, it's not for babies. It's for children. And your mother wants you to stay a child for as long as you can. We both do.
 * Kana: Papa...
 * Xander: Kana, we know that you're growing and that you want more responsibilities. And we know that you're going to be a fine young man someday. But for now...relax. Don't try to grow up so quickly. After all, you have the rest of your life to be a responsible adult.
 * Kana: OK. Thanks, Papa. I'll think real hard about everything you said.
 * Xander: I trust you will. You know... I think it would be good if you spent the night in with your mother. I'll go talk to her about it.
 * Kana: Wait! What about you?
 * Xander: What? Me? No, I have to train and—
 * Kana: But, Papa! I thought you wanted me to enjoy my childhood. It wouldn't be much of a childhood without a papa...
 * Xander: Well, when you put it that way... As you wish, Kana. Go tell your mother.
 * Kana: Yaaay!
 * Xander: A future king who can't even refuse a request from his own son. *sigh* But...I suppose a good king must always be at the service of his subjects. Especially when their face lights up at the thought of a night in with Papa...

 * Kana: Hey, Papa. There's something I wanted to ask you about, if that's OK...
 * Odin: Yes, Kana? What worm of unease has lodged itself in your brainy innards?
 * Kana: Well, see, it's Mama. She's always treating me like I'm a little kid.
 * Odin: Oh? That seems only natural. You are her spawn, after all.
 * Kana: I know that! I just mean I'm not as much of a child as I used to be. I want to help out more. But whenever I try, she just tells me to go play with my friends instead.
 * Odin: Oh, I see. You wish to be the tortoise that holds up her world.
 * Kana: Right! I want to be someone she can rely on. Do you have any ideas for things I could do to make her happy?
 * Odin: Of course! I am ecstatic that you asked. Typically, I ply her with stories and lore on the outer darkness and the void of being. Just yesterday I regaled her with my tale behind The Pose of Eternal Undoing. Followed, of course, by that of the magician who was corrupted by a demon. Which naturally led to a discussion of the finer points of the Incarnadine Arts and their merits relative to the...um...the Super Jet-Black Onyx school of...magickry.
 * Kana: And that makes her happy?
 * Odin: Why, of course! What being would not be enthralled by such fantastic tales? Does not the mention of the Uliginous Autochthons give you spine chills? So it is with milady! She always smiles a special smile when I tell her my tales...
 * Kana: Oh...r-really now?
 * Odin: MY GODS! THAT'S IT! THAT'S THE SMILE! You are truly your mother's son, my child!
 * Kana: I...um—Do you know of any other ways of making Mama happy?
 * Odin: A pleasure that surpasses plumbing the secret depths of dark magic?! Impossible! Unless... Don't tell me you intend to break the third seal?!
 * Kana: Oh, I know! Let's make it a contest, Papa!
 * Odin: A contest? What kind of contest?
 * Kana: Yeah! We'll have a contest to see which of us can make Mama happier! Between the two of us, I'm sure we can come up with all sorts of things! Whoever gets thanked the most wins! Heehee.
 * Odin: A high-stakes death match between father and son, eh? I like the sound of that! The drama...the suspense... The horrific tragedy when one is inevitably compelled to destroy the other! What misfortune, my aching blood hungers to consume my...kinsblood... No matter! We shall call this... The Tournament of Torment!
 * Kana: Really? Yaaaay!

 * Odin: Heh. You will regret asking... I have a tally here of all the times she has thanked me. Read it and despair!
 * Kana: WOW! That's a lot! And you got all these already? That's crazy!
 * Odin: Yes. You see, it took only a few long incantations to accomplish the deed. They were so powerful, she begged me to stop, lest I be destroyed. Also something about the noise being distracting. Of course, I relented immediately, and I received all of these thanks in return.
 * Kana: Oh yeah? Well, nothing can stand between Kana and victory! Here, see! I counted mine, too! And the total is...um...
 * Odin: WH-WHAAAT?! How could you possibly have more than me? WITCHCRAFT! WITCHCRAFT!
 * Kana: I do? I do! Haha! Take THAT, Papa!
 * Odin: K-Kana. Just what kind of spell did you cast? Did you summon a demon?! You must come clean, child. We have not long to purify you!
 * Kana: I've mostly just been doing things around camp. In the mornings, I help make arrows for the archers. Then at lunch I chop vegetables and dole out the food. And at night, I bring Mama her maps and books for planning the war strategy. And I do a bunch of little things throughout the day whenever I have time.
 * Odin: Y-you mean you've been doing no magic?! You've bested me while using no spells?!
 * Kana: Mhm!
 * Odin: N-no fair! Hmm. But you seem to have grown up without my even noticing... Are you sure you have used no magic?
 * Kana: Huh?
 * Odin: Oh, just a thought. Perhaps I have been treating you like too much of a child as well. Not long ago, you were an undreamed dream in another realm. And now, suddenly, you're a man of the army, serving like the rest of us. It...it...gosh darnit, it warms my heart!
 * Kana: Thanks, Papa! I've been working really hard.
 * Odin: I believe it. Your mother must be very grateful for all the good work you've been doing.
 * Kana: Good work... Hm. I just realized... Mama hasn't actually been saying "thank you" to me very much. She just tells me "good work" and smiles. It's kind of a sad smile, come to think of it... Maybe I'm not helping her as much as I thought I was...
 * Odin: Hey, now. Don't be discouraged. It's likely nothing. Air and fluff. I'm sure you've been an enormous help. More importantly, this means you've been cheating, you little ogre! I knew you couldn't surpass my powers without the use of dark magics!
 * Kana: Haha. I guess you're right. I'll just have to work even harder for Mama tomorrow! I'm not gonna lose to you, Papa! I won't sleep until Mama thanks me twice as much!
 * Odin: Heh. Fine. I suppose I will allow you this one victory. But remember... Odin Dark always triumphs in the end!

 * Kana: No, that's not it! It's just... I feel like that stuff is for babies.
 * Niles: No, Kana, it's not for babies. It's for children. And your mother wants you to stay a child for just a little while longer. We both do.
 * Kana: Papa...
 * Niles: You've become such a good kid, I doubt anyone would believe you were mine. So don't worry too much about relaxing every once in a while.
 * Kana: OK. Thanks, Papa. I'll think real hard about everything you said.
 * Niles: Good! You know... I think it would be good if you spent the night in with your mother. I'll go talk to her about it now.
 * Kana: Wait! What about you?
 * Niles: Me? No, I've got plans to—
 * Kana: But, Papa! Don't you need a break sometimes too? I thought you wanted me and Mama to be happy!
 * Niles: But I— All right. When you put it that way... Yeesh.
 * Kana: Yaaay!
 * Niles: Heh. Never thought I'd be spending a night in with a family of my very own. So this must be happiness, huh? Maybe it's something worth protecting after all. Looks like Kana's not the only one who's changing...

 * Kana: Hey, Papa? Can I talk you about something?
 * Arthur: Of course, my child! What is it you require?
 * Kana: It's Mama. I feel like she's always treating me like a child.
 * Arthur: Well of course! You ARE her boy, after all. And you aren't that old yet. I was there when you were born, and I've been keeping a close eye on your age.
 * Kana: I know, I know. I just mean I'm not as young as I used to be. I want to help out with stuff too. But whenever I try, she just tells me to go play with my friends instead.
 * Arthur: Ah, I see. You want some responsibilities of your own, huh?
 * Kana: Yeah! I want to show her that she can count on me. Can you think of any special things I could do for her?
 * Arthur: Hm. I can't think of anything in particular... Usually I just try to be as heroic for her as possible on a daily basis! You know-chase brigands, assist her in battle, iron her clothes. Not many know this, but wrinkles are second only to pirates in villainy.
 * Kana: And that makes her happy?
 * Arthur: Of course! Have you never felt the bliss of donning freshly pressed formal wear?
 * Kana: Oh...
 * Arthur: Hm? You look like you wish to say something, Kana.
 * Kana: Those are all special Papa gifts, right? I can't just copy you... Oh, I know! Let's have a contest, Papa!
 * Arthur: A contest?
 * Kana: Yeah! We'll have a contest to see which of us can make Mama happier! Between the two of us, I'm we can come up with all sorts of things! Whoever Mama thanks the most wins!
 * Arthur: A little father-son competition, eh? Very well. A hero never turns down a challenge!
 * Kana: Really? Yay!
 * Arthur: But remember! I am Avatar's beloved. I am the other half of her heart! And, most importantly, I am the Hero of JUSTICE! Besting me will not be easy, I can tell you that!
 * Kana: That's OK with me, Papa! I'm gonna beat you fair and square!
 * Arthur: Now that's what I like to hear! May the most heroic, just Hero of Justice win!

 * Kana: Yeah! I want to show her she can rely on me. I wonder if there's something I could do for her...

 * Kana: Hey Papa! I've been making so much progress on our contest! How about you?
 * Benny: Well, I haven't done anything too special yet, but she has thanked me many times. I have a tally right here. Take a look.
 * Kana: WOW! That's so many! And you got all of these already?
 * Benny: Yes. I am as surprised as you are. Maybe I'm a better husband than I thought.
 * Kana: Hmph... Well, I'm still not going to lose! Here, see! I recorded all mine too! And the total is...um...
 * Benny: You—?! You have the same number as me!
 * Kana: I do? I do! Haha! Kana's gonna beat you big-time, Papa! I don't have to work like you, so I can start spending all day helping her!
 * Benny: Hmph. So that is your secret. And what kind of help did you give her?
 * Kana: Mostly I've been trying to help out around camp! I spend each morning making arrows for the fletchers. Then, at lunch, I slice the bear meat and hand out food to the soldiers. Oh, and at night I make sure the mounts are all fed and outfitted for the next day. Plus I do a bunch of other little things whenever I have the time!
 * Benny: Is that right? I'm impressed. You really have been growing up, haven't you?
 * Kana: Huh?
 * Benny: Oh, just a thought. It wasn't so long ago you were still a little lump in swaddling clothes. Now, all of a sudden, you're making real, important contributions to the army. Maybe I've been treating you like too much of a child as well.
 * Kana: Heehee. Yeah, I've been working real hard. Soon there'll be nothing I can't do!
 * Benny: I believe it. And I bet your mother has been very proud of you.
 * Kana: I hope so! And I'm gonna make her even prouder tomorrow!
 * Benny: Hmph! It sounds like I'd better get my act together if I don't want to lose.

 * Benny: Hello. Kana.
 * Kana: Hi, Papa...
 * Benny: What's the matter? You were so happy after you won our little contest yesterday...
 * Kana: Oh, no. I'm still happy about that, I guess. It's just that I was trying to do things for Mama earlier, and she made me stop. She said I should be spending more time playing around with my friends again. She still thinks I'm just a kid. Haven't I shown her I'm old enough to help out around the camp?
 * Benny: Ah, so that's it. I wouldn't worry. It's not you. You're doing good work. I promise.
 * Kana: Then why doesn't she want me to help with anything?
 * Benny: I think your mother knows full well you're capable of handling these things. But seeing you acting so grown-up makes her feel sad.
 * Kana: Huh? Why?
 * Benny: Well, she doesn't want to lose her baby boy. She is very, very proud that you're growing up and working so hard. But at the same time, she's worried it means you won't need her anymore. It's a little silly but it's true. Parents can be funny like that.
 * Kana: So...what should I do?
 * Benny: I'd say to keep helping out around camp, but don't work yourself so hard. Take breaks to see your friends, play games, go on adventures. You know. And try to spend some quality time with your mother every now and then. Think you can handle that?
 * Kana: But...
 * Benny: What? Do you not want to spend time with your mother?
 * Kana: No, that's not it! It's just... I feel like that stuff is for babies.
 * Benny: No, Kana, it's not for babies. It's for children. And your mother wants you to stay a child for just a little while longer. We both do.
 * Kana: Papa...
 * Benny: Kana, we know that you're growing up and that you want more responsibilities. And we know that you're going to be a fine young man someday. But for now... relax. Don't try to grow up so quickly.
 * Kana: OK. Thanks, Papa. I'll think real hard about everything you said.
 * Benny: Good. You know... I think it would be good if you spent the night in with your mother. I'll go talk to her about it.
 * Kana: Wait! What about you?
 * Benny: What? Me? No, I ca—
 * Kana: But, Papa! I thought you wanted me to enjoy my childhood. It wouldn't be much of a childhood without a papa...

 * Izana: (The kid is too clever for his own good.) Oh? And what exactly have you done to earn such praise from your mother?
 * Kana: I've mostly just been doing things around camp. In the mornings, I help make arrows for the archers. Then at lunch I chop vegetables and dole out the food. And at night, I bring Mama her maps and books for planing the war strategy. And I do a bunch of little things throughout the day whenever I have time.

And now, all of a sudden, you're a man of the army, serving like the rest of us. It's a little shocking. You could even say I "Kana-t" believe it. *snort* Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha! Anyways, I guess I'm trying to say that I'm very proud of you, squishbubble.

 * Kana: A good job... Hm. I just realized... Mama hasn't actually been saying "thank you" to me very much. She just tells me I did a good job and smiles. It's kind of a sad smile, come to think of it... Maybe i'm not helping her as much as I thought I was...
 * Izana: Hey, now. Don't be too sad. It's probably nothing. I'm sure you've been helping her out a ton. More importantly, this means you've been cheating, you little squirtbag! I knew you couldn't match my score fairly!

Especially not with flowers. Ooh, or taking naps. But children can do all those things, and no one will bat an eye. It's wonderful! So she wants you to enjoy the chance to live it up while you can. Plus, if you're too independent, she'll feel like you don't need her anymore.
 * Kana: I still don't think I get it.
 * Izana: Think of it this way. You want her to be able to count on you, right? She wants the same thing, but the other way around. And as you become more independent, the less she'll feel needed. It's the same for every parent.
 * Kana: I guess that makes sense. Sorta...
 * Izana: Don't worry about it too much. If it doesn't now, it will in time. Just try your best to humor us in the meantime, OK? How about this: keep helping your mother, but don't work for hours on end. Take tea breaks, pick daisies, dance in the fields-you know the drill. Show her that you can still be a child sometimes too. If you do that, I'm sure it will make her ecstatic. And it wouldn't hurt to try and spend some quality time with her now and then as well.
 * Kana: B-but...
 * Izana: What? You don't want to spend time with her?
 * Kana: No, that's not it! It's just... I feel like all that stuff is just for babies.
 * Izana: No, Kana. It's not for babies. It's for children. And she doesn't want you to grow up too fast. She wants you to be a child for just a little while longer. Both of us do.
 * Kana: Papa...
 * Izana: Squishbubble, we know you're growing and that you want to be responsible. You're going to be a big, unsquishy man one day. A great one. And we all know it. But for now... just kick back and take in the sweet, sweet sunshine. Enjoy yourself. At least a little bit, here and there.
 * Kana: OK... thanks, Papa! I'll think hard about everything you've said.
 * Izana: Now that's what I like to hear! Maybe you and your mother should spend some time together tonight. Whaddaya say? A relaxing evening in, just the two of you.
 * Kana: You mean... you don't want to spend time with us too?
 * Izana: What? You know, I didn't even think about that. Some father I am! Heehee. I would love to spend tonight with you and Mama, Kana!
 * Kana: Yaaay!
 * Izana: Heehee. If only this kind of bliss could last forever... I suppose that's what spas are for!

 * Kana: Hey, Papa? There's something I wanted to ask you about, if it's OK...
 * Shigure: Of course, Kana. What is it?
 * Kana: It's Mama. She's always treating me like a child.
 * Shigure: Is that so strange? You are her son. She will always think of you as her baby boy. And last I checked, you WERE quite young.
 * Kana: I know, I know. I just mean I'm not as much of a child as I used to be. I want to be of help. But whenever I try, she just tells me to go play with my friends instead.
 * Shigure: I see. You want some responsibilities.
 * Kana: Right! I want to be someone she can rely on. Do you have any ideas for things I could do for her?
 * Shigure: Hm... Well, I usually sing to her or take her to see new places.
 * Kana: And that makes her happy?
 * Shigure: Oh, yes. I rarely see her happier. Growing up, she was kept locked away in a fortress by the King of Nohr. So she relishes every opportunity she gets to see new things. And she loves music.
 * Kana: Oh...
 * Shigure: Hm? Something wrong?
 * Kana: I guess I was looking more for special things that I could do for her...
 * Shigure: Ah. Good point. Let me think...
 * Kana: I know! Let's have a contest, Papa!
 * Shigure: A contest? What kind of contest?
 * Kana: Yeah! We'll have a contest to see which of us can make Mama happier! Between the two of us, I'm sure we can come up with all sorts of things. Whoever gets thanked the most wins!
 * Shigure: A little friendly competition between father and son, hm? Interesting. All right. I accept your challenge.
 * Kana: Really? Yay!
 * Shigure: But remember, I'm the one who won your mother's heart. Beating me will be no mean feat. And I don't intend to go easy on you, all right?
 * Kana: That's fine with me, Papa. I'm gonna beat you fair and square!
 * Shigure: Very well then. Let the games begin!

 * Kana: Hey, Papa! I've been making a ton of progress on our contest! How about you?
 * Shigure: Well, I haven't done anything too special, but I've been thanked quite a bit. Let me see. I have a tally here somewhere...
 * Kana: WOW! That's a lot! You got all of these already?
 * Shigure: Yes. I'm as surprised as you are. I suppose I do more for your mother than I realized.
 * Kana: Well I'm still not gonna lose! Here, see! I recorded all mine too! And the total is...um...
 * Shigure: H-how can this be?! You've got as many as I do!
 * Kana: I do? I do! Haha! Kana's gonna beat you big-time, Papa! After all, I don't have to work, so I can spend all day doing things for Mama!
 * Shigure: I didn't think about that... What exactly HAVE you been spending all day doing, anyways?
 * Kana: Mostly I've been trying to help out around camp. I spend each morning making arrows for the fletchers. Then at lunch I chop the bear meat for the cooks and hand out the food. Oh, and at night I make sure the mounts are all fed and outfitted for the next day. Plus I do a bunch of other little things whenever I have the time!
 * Shigure: That's a lot of work. And you've been doing this every day? You really have grown up, haven't you?
 * Kana: Huh?
 * Shigure: Just a thought. Maybe I've been treating you like too much of a child as well. It wasn't that long ago you were still a babe in swaddling clothes. And now, all of a sudden, you're making real, important contributions to the army. You're more grown up than you look.
 * Kana: Heehee. Yeah, I've been working real hard. Soon there'll be nothing I can't do!
 * Shigure: I believe it. And I bet Avatar is very grateful for all the good work you've been doing.
 * Kana: "Good Work"... Hm. I just realized... Mama hasn't been saying "thank you" to me very much. She just tells me "good work" and smiles. It's kind of a sad smile, come to think of it...
 * Shigure: Oh, I wouldn't overthink it. I'm sure she very much appreciates what you've done.
 * Kana: OK, Papa. If you say so... But don't think this means I'm going to let you win!
 * Shigure: Heh. Not for a moment. Now, come. We've both got work to do.

 * Shigure: Hello, Kana.
 * Kana: Hi, Papa...
 * Shigure: Hm? What's wrong? I'd expected you to still be exulting over your victory in our little contest. Or has besting your old man already lost it's novelty?
 * Kana: Oh, no. I'm still happy about that, I guess. It's just that I was trying to do things for Mama earlier, and she made me stop. She said I should be spending more time playing around with my friends. She still thinks I'm just a kid. Haven't I shown her I can help out with stuff too? Am I messing up? I she just pretending I'm doing a good job?
 * Shigure: Oh, is that what it is? I wouldn't worry. It's not you. You've been doing a great job. I promise.
 * Kana: Then why doesn't she want me to help with anything?
 * Shigure: Avatar knows full well you're capable of taking on new responsibilities. But when you do, it makes her worry. And it makes her feel lonely.
 * Kana: Huh? Why?
 * Shigure: She doesn't want you to miss out on your childhood. And she doesn't want to lose her little baby boy. She's happy to see you're growing up, but she's worried you won't need her anymore.
 * Kana: But... I'm just trying to pull my own weight. I don't get why that would be a bad thing...
 * Shigure: Heh. I'm not sure I can explain it, myself. But I do have a suggestion for you. Keep helping your mother like you have been, but don't work yourself quite as hard. Take breaks to see your friends and play games. And it wouldn't hurt to try and spend some quality time with her now and then. Think you can handle that?
 * Kana: But...
 * Shigure: Hm? Do you not want to spend time with your mother?
 * Kana: No, that's not it! It's just... I feel like that stuff is for babies.
 * Shigure: No, Kana. It's not for babies. It's for children. And your mother wants you to be a child for just a while longer. We both do.
 * Kana: Papa...
 * Shigure: We know that you're growing up and that you want to be relied upon. You're going to be a great man someday. We both know it. But for now... relax. Enjoy yourself. At least a little bit, here and there.
 * Kana: OK. Thanks, Papa. I'll think real hard about everything you've said.
 * Shigure: Good. You know... I think it would be good if you spent some quality time with your mother tonight. Have a nice night in, just the two of you. I'll go talk to her about it now.
 * Kana: Wait! What about you?
 * Shigure: M-me? No, I've got some pressing matters to atten —
 * Kana: But, Papa! Don't you need to take a break sometimes too? I thought you wanted me and Mama to be happy!
 * Shigure: ...I... suppose my hands are tied. Very well. We will make it a night for the whole family.
 * Kana: Yaaay!
 * Shigure: Heh. So this is fatherhood, eh? I could get used to this.

 * Kana: I know, I know. I just mean I'm not as young as I used to be. I want to help out with stuff. But whenever I try, she just tells me to go play with my friends instead.
 * Dwyer: I see. You want some responsibilities of your own, huh? Not sure why anyone would want that, but hey, to each their own.
 * Kana: Yeah! I want to show her that she can count on me. Can you think of any special things I could do for her?
 * Dwyer: Good question. Usually, I brew her rare teas or bake some special sweets for her.
 * Kana: Oh... But those are special things from you. I can't just copy you... Maybe there's another way to make her even happier... Oh, I know! Let's have a contest, Papa!

 * Kana: Hi, Papa...
 * Dwyer: Something wrong? I'd have thought you'd be in a better mood after winning our contest the other day. Or has beating your old man already lost its charm?
 * Kana: Oh, no. I'm still happy about that, I guess. It's just that I was trying to do things for Mama earlier, and she made me stop. She said I should be spending more time playing around with my friends again. She still thinks I'm just a kid. Haven't I shown her I'm old enough to help out around camp?
 * Dwyer: Ah, so that's it. I wouldn't worry. It's not you. You're doing good work, I promise.
 * Kana: Then why doesn't she want me to help with anything?
 * Dwyer: I think your mother knows full well you're capable of handling the work. But seeing you acting so grown-up makes her feel sad.
 * Kana: Huh? Why?
 * Dwyer: Well, she doesn't want to lose her baby boy. She is very, very proud that you're growing up and working so hard. But at the same time, she's worried it means you won't need her anymore. It's a little contradictory, but it's true. Parents can be funny like that.
 * Kana: So...what should I do?
 * Dwyer: I'd say to keep doing things around camp, but don't work yourself so hard. Take breaks to see your friends, play games, go on adventures. You know. And try to spend some quality time with your mother every now and then. Think you can handle that?

But if I learn a bunch of new skills, maybe I'll be of more use to everyone! Besides, I've always wanted to learn something from my big brother! I used to wonder a lot about what it would be like to spend time with you.

 * Kana: It was awfully lucky that no one was trapped inside. We even got the fire out pretty quickly too.
 * Sophie: Honestly, there wasn't time to really think when I saw the fire. I was frantic. I don't remember the details of what happened all that well.
 * Kana: Really? But you seemed so calm and cool.
 * Sophie: That's probably because I had Avel with me at the time. I could feel that he wouldn't let me down.


 * Kana: And he didn't! He was listening to everything you said.
 * Sophie: *sigh* I just wish that he acted like that normally. He's so stubborn.
 * Kana: When push comes to shove, I think he does want to help you.
 * Sophie: Huh? What do you mean?
 * Kana: I have a feeling that if something like that happened again, he wouldn't let you down. Even if i begged, Avel would never let me ride him. You're his owner, Sophie. That's why he was willing to charge into the fire with you. Your bond is unshakeable.
 * Sophie: I don't know...
 * Kana: I'm sure of it. In Avel's head, I'm just his friend. You're his master though. That's a different tyoe of connection, don't you think?
 * Sophie: Heehee, maybe you're right. Kana. I'd never really thought of it like that before. It's funny, but that makes me feel a little more confident.
 * Kana: You should be beyond confident. The other day, you were so incredibly cool.
 * Sophie: Stop it—you're embarrassing me! Heehee...So you really think that Avel will help me out if something else happens?
 * Kana: Yeah! I have no doubt. Uhh, Sophie, watch out! Behind you!
 * Sophie: What? Eeeek! Stop it, Avel! Why, do you always try to chew on my hair? Youch! That hurts!
 * Kana: Hahaha! Maybe Avel was feeling just a little embarrassed too!
 * Sophie: Maybe, but this really hurts! OW! Hey, cut it out already!

 * Kana: Thanks for coming on patrol with me today, Sophie!
 * Sophie: No problem, Kana. I've actually been enjoying these patrols a lot! It's nice to watch my little brother grow into such a capable young man.
 * Kana: Really? You mean it?!
 * Sophie: Sure do! I think you've got a natural talent for this sort of thing.
 * Kana: Heehee. Thanks! What about you? Do you have any special talents, Sophie?
 * Sophie: Me? I don't know. I don't think I've got any super-amazing skills or anything. But you COULD say I have a gift for looking on the bright side of things! Whenever I get discouraged, I always bounce right back!
 * Kana: Wow, Sophie! That's amazing! I bet if we combined our talents, we'd be unstoppable!
 * Sophie: You know what, Kana? I think you're right! We're a force to be reckoned with!
 * Kana: Mhm! Now, enough chitchat. We should get moving! We're burning daylight here! We've still got a long ways to go if we're gonna be the best patrollers in camp.
 * Sophie: K-Kana? Kana! Hey, wait for meeeeeee!

 * Kana: Sophie! Guess what time it is! That's riiiiiiiiiiight! It's patrol time!
 * Sophie: OK, sure. Let's go!
 * Kana: Er, but...first I wanted to ask you for a favor.
 * Sophie: A favor? What is it?
 * Kana: I want you to teach me how to be like you!
 * Sophie: Huh? What do you mean?
 * Kana: Like, how you said you always bounce back after getting discouraged! 'Cause I'm the youngest kid in camp, right? So there's a lot I still have to learn. But if something's hard to learn, I can't just give up. So I want you to teach me! Besides, I've always wanted to learn something from my big sister! I used to wonder a lot about what it would be like to spend time with you.
 * Sophie: Kana...
 * Kana: So now that I can, I want to learn as much from you as possible! Is that OK?
 * Sophie: Of course it's OK! I'm so happy you asked me!
 * Kana: Thank you so much!
 * Sophie: But I'm not gonna let you get ahead of me that easy. I want to learn from you too. Let's make it a competition to see who can grow stronger the fastest!
 * Kana: OK, but I'm not gonna be the one to lose! That's a promise!
 * Sophie: Heh. Me either! All right, then. Today is patrol duty. Tomorrow, the real training begins!
 * Kana: Sounds good to me, Sis!

 * Midori: *sigh* Hrmmm...
 * Kana: Wow, that must be a tough book, Midori. You've been staring at the same page for a few minutes now.
 * Midori: Oh, Kana! Yeah, it's pretty confusing. I'm studying up on acupuncture points.
 * Kana: Acupuncture points? What are those? Are they sort of like Dragon Veins?
 * Midori: No, it's nothing like that. They are pressure points on your body. It kind of hurts when you press them, but it also feels really good. And it helps heal damaged or achy muscles. It's really interesting.
 * Kana: Wow, that's awesome. I've never heard of that before.
 * Midori: According to the book, you can heal sickness if you do it right. Apparently these spots are all over your body. It's just a matter of finding them. If I can learn to do this, then I won't have to rely solely on medicine to heal people!
 * Kana: What a great idea, Midori. Say, I have a thought! Why don't you use me as your guinea pig? You can practice on my pressure points!
 * Midori: That's very generous of you to offer. Here, hold out your hand. Let's see what happens if I press between your thumb and index finger...
 * Kana: Ack! Ahahahaha!
 * Midori: Huh? Why are you laughing? Did I do something funny?
 * Kana: Ahahaha...! Th-that tickles! Hahaha!
 * Midori: Wait, what, it does? I thought I was hitting the right spot... Fine, I'll try somewhere else. Maybe I should try a spot on your neck. I think it's right over here...
 * Kana: Hahaha! Stop! Stop! You're tickling me!
 * Midori: What? It can't be! Maybe I'm not pressing hard enough. Let me try one on your head now.
 * Kana: Ahahahaha! AHAHAHA!!
 * Midori: Arrrrrggg! No! Why isn't this working? I'm gonna try the one in your shoulder. Hang on, I'm gonna press really hard. Hyah! Hiiiiiyah!
 * Kana: BAHAHAHAHA!!!
 * Midori: Ugh, come on! That's not the reaction I was looking for at all. What am I doing wrong? This should be working perfectly... Fine, I'm trying your feet next. Hyah!
 * Kana: AHAHAHA! Stop, stop! I can't take any more, Midori. I can barely breathe... HAHAHA!
 * Midori: ARGGG!!!!! Dang it, Kana!

B Support

 * Midori: Kana, there you are! Can I practice on you again today? I think i know what to do differently now.
 * Kana: You want to try finding my pressure points again, huh? Sure, I'm happy to help.
 * Midori: You're the best, Kana! After last time didn't work, I've been practicing on myself. I know I'll get it right this time. Let's start with your wrist, OK? Hah!
 * Kana: Ahahahaha!!
 * Midori: Hm, it still tickled, huh? I wonder what I'm doing wrong...
 * Kana: Maybe you're being too easy on me?
 * Midori: Maybe unconsciously... This should be working. Let me think.
 * Kana: Feel free to put all of your strength into it. I can stand the pain.
 * Midori: Sure thing! I will. Get ready! HIYAH!
 * Kana: AHAHAHAHA! Stop, stop! Sorry, Midori, It still tickles like crazy.
 * Midori: *sigh* What am I doing wrong? Maybe I'm just not cut out for acupuncture.
 * Kana: Don't say that! It's not true! There must be something blocking you from learning this. Maybe if we work together, we can figure out what that is.
 * Midori: I'm not so sure...
 * Kana: I know I've been laughing nonstop, but I'd really like to do whatever I can to help. Don't you want to get to the bottom of this?
 * Midori: Yes, I do. Thanks, Kana. I'm sure together, we can sort this out.
 * Kana: Of course! Which point did you want to try our next?
 * Midori: Hm, good question. Wait, i have a great idea. Maybe I need to practice on other people too. That way I'll probably improve even faster.
 * Kana: Great idea. hey, I could even help you recruit some people. Let's get started, Midori!
 * Midori: OK!

A Support

 * Kana: Listen, I'm really sorry, Midori...
 * Midori: What for, Kana?
 * Kana: Well, I couldn't stop cracking up when you started working on my pressure points. At the end of the day, I was just too ticklish for it to work on me, huh? I feel really bad that I put you in such an annoying situation. I just wanted to help.
 * Midori: Oh, don't worry about it. Honestly, it wasn't your fault. People can't help but respond differently with physical therapies. It happens with medicine too. It's only natural that acupuncture would be the same way.
 * Kana: I still feel like i held you back...
 * Midori: Not at all. I wouldn't have improved without your assistance. You were so committed to helping me anyway that you could. I really appreciate that!
 * Kana: That's a relief to hear. It's funny, but everyone else you helped seemed to love their treatments. They all said it felt great.
 * Midori: Oh, stop it! You're just trying to flatter me.
 * Kana: If only I could control my ticklishness... Then I'd be able to enjoy your treatment without laughing my head off. It's not fair.
 * Midori: Kana, don't be sad. After our last try didn't work out, i did some research. As I was flipping through one of my books, I found a clue!
 * Kana: Really? What did it say?
 * Midori: You have to relax as much as possible. Then I just have to press down as hard as I can, ans you'll gradually get used to it! At least that's what the book said.
 * Kana: Wow, interesting...
 * Midori: Hopefully I can actually give you a treatment this time. So what do you say? Want to give it another shot?
 * Kana: Sure, why not? It's really kind of you to work so hard just for me!
 * Midori: Heehee, of course! Why don't we try out the new method right away. Sit down and relax, Kana...
 * Kana: O-OK, I'll try.
 * Midori: Ready? How's this? Hiyah!
 * Kana: Ahahaha! Wait a minute... What's happening? Wow, this doesn't tickle nearly as much this time!
 * Midori: Really? It's working?! I'm gonna keep going then. Ha! Hiyah!
 * Kana: Yeah! Give me your best shot!

 * Kana: Midori, would you mind giving me another acupuncture treatment today?
 * Midori: Sure, Kana, no problem. I'm happy to help. I'm glad to see that you're coming around. It was worth all that hard work after all!
 * Kana: Yeah, you're totally right!
 * Midori: Heehee. Let's start with the pressure point on your lower back. OK? Get ready...Hiyah!
 * Kana: Wow, that feels so good. All the tension in my spine is totally gone. These treatments are amazing. I wish you'd do this for me every day. My back would never hurt again!
 * Midori: Heehee, you're so silly. Stop trying to flatter me.
 * Kana: What do you mean?


 * Midori: You're obviously just trying to make me feel good, Kana.
 * Kana: No, I'm being serious! I'm really impressed with how hard you work. Every time you set your mind to learning something, you succeed. It's very impressive.
 * Midori: Really? I just like to learn new things and help people. I've never thought about it that way before.
 * Kana: It's the truth! I'm so glad we've gotten to spend this time together, Midori. I feel like we're becoming great friends.
 * Midori: We are, Kana. These last few days with you have been really fun.
 * Kana: Umm, do you mind if i ask you something? It's a little embarrassing...
 * Midori: Of course, you can ask me anything.
 * Kana: Will you be my best friend? I want to hang out with you all the time!
 * Midori: Of course, silly! You and I make a great team, don't you think?
 * Kana: Yeah, definitely!
 * Midori: Heehee! Want me to work on the pressure point in your hand next?

 * Kana: Hmph!
 * Shiro: Got your hmph-face on, huh, Kana?
 * Kana: It's raining, Shiro. It's been doing that lots lately.
 * Shiro: Probably not going to stop anytime soon either.
 * Kana: I'm going to go crazy if I can't get outside to play soon.
 * Shiro: Oh, I gotcha. Then how about we whittle ourselves some rain-go-away figures?
 * Kana: That's not a thing.
 * Shiro: Sure it is. You get yourself some logs. Whittle some heads on 'em. Make the faces angry looking so they scare off the rain. Blammo!
 * Kana: You sure that works?
 * Shiro: Sure! Come on, I'll help you make a whole bunch of 'em.
 * Kana: So what do we do with all of these rain-go-away figures, Shiro?
 * Shiro: Put 'em in doorways, windows, anywhere the rain clouds can see their angry faces.
 * Kana: I don't think the faces are angry enough... I really need this to work.
 * Shiro: Well, what if we make 'em all look like our parents?
 * Kana: Yeah! I know I always do whatever Mama and Papa say when they look angry.
 * Shiro: Whoa. You're just scribbling all sorts of stuff on those faces, aren't you!
 * Kana: I draw pretty well. Here, I'll do your face on this one.
 * Shiro: Pretty good, pretty good... Make me look tougher though.
 * Kana: What? All right. I'll just make the eyebrows darker.
 * Shiro: Whoa! I don't have a unibrow!
 * Kana: You don't? Oh, I guess you don't. Too late. Come on, Shiro. Let's stick these figures in these windows.
 * Shiro: I bet we're going to have some great weather tomorrow, Kana!

 * Kana: Hmpf!
 * Shiro: You know, if you keep makin' that hmpf-face, it'll stay that way. What's got you down now?
 * Kana: Our rain-go-away figures only scared the rain away for a day. It's gross again.
 * Shiro: It has to rain sometime. But our figures did work, right?
 * Kana: Yes, but Mama made me stay inside that day and do chores. And then it's been raining ever since.
 * Shiro: Maybe the rain's getting back at you for putting up all those figures... Just kidding, little man. This is just how life goes when you're a kid. Always waiting for the rain to stop.
 * Kana: I'll never be able to play outside ever again!
 * Shiro: Yeesh—I remember that feeling now. Horrible.
 * Kana: It IS horrible!
 * Shiro: Hey, let's just go outside.
 * Kana: Now? But we'll get wet.
 * Shiro: So what if we get wet? Just think of it as swimming without a lake.
 * Kana: But won't my parents—?
 * Shiro: Just tell me—does it sound like fun or not?
 * Kana: Uh, yes?
 * Shiro: Darn right, yes. Let's go right now. We'll have a race somewhere muddy.

 * Shiro: So, hey there, Kana.
 * Kana: Hi, Shiro!

 * Shiro: Yeah, and I said it was OK to go out. Sorry again.
 * Kana: What? That was the best time ever. I'm glad you thought of it.
 * Shiro: You are? Huh.
 * Kana: Jumping in puddles, racing around in the mud. It was THE BEST.
 * Shiro: Oh! Glad you had fun. I guess I did too.
 * Kana: Wish it was raining right now.
 * Shiro: What, getting yelled at once isn't enough?
 * Kana: But it was so fun.
 * Shiro: I guess we could just go outside and roll around in the dirt.
 * Kana: That doesn't sound that great. Besides, we don't have to worry about getting yelled at. We'll just ask permission.
 * Shiro: Now THAT doesn't sound that great. Asking to go out and play in the rain?
 * Kana: I guess that was half the fun... Ugh! When will it rain again?!
 * Shiro: Hey, buddy. Here's a plan. Let's take all those rain-go-away figures... And we'll throw 'em all in the lake. That could convince the rain to come back. We'll stand at the water's edge... And we'll throw those darn figures as hard as we can. Sound good?

 * Kiragi: Of course she is! You're her son, after all.
 * Kana: I know that! I just mean I'm not as much of a child as I used to be. I want to help out more. But whenever I try, she just tells me to go play with my friends instead.
 * Kiragi: Oh, I gotcha. You want responsibilities!
 * Kana: Yeah! I want to be someone she can rely on. Do you have any ideas for things I could do to make her happy?
 * Kiragi: Hmm... Usually I just bring her tasty fruits I find up in the mountains.
 * Kana: And that makes her happy?
 * Kiragi: Yep! She loves it!
 * Kana: Oh...
 * Kiragi: Huh? Did I say something wrong?
 * Kana: I guess I was hoping for more ideas. Like, things that I could do for her too...
 * Kiragi: More ideas, huh? Lemme think...
 * Kana: Oh, I know! Let's have a contest, Papa!
 * Kiragi: A contest? What kind of contest?
 * Kana: Yeah! We'll have a contest to see which of us can make Mama happier! Between the two of us, I'm sure we can come up with all sorts of things! Whoever gets thanked the most wins! Heehee.
 * Kiragi: Ooh, that sounds neat. All right, let's do it!
 * Kana: Woohoo!

 * Kana: Hey, Papa! I've been making so much progress on our contest! How about you?

 * Kana: WOW! That's a lot! And you got all these already? That's crazy!
 * Kiragi: Haha. I hadn't really thought about it, but yeah, it is quite a few. I guess I do more for your mother than I thought. Looks like this little competition isn't going to be so hard after all.
 * Kana: Oh yeah? Not if I have anything to say about it! Here, see! I recorded all mine, too. And the total is... um...
 * Kiragi: Wh-what?! You've got just as many as I do!
 * Kana: I do? I do! Haha! Take THAT, Papa! Kana's gonna beat you big-time! I don't have a job, so I can spend all day helping out for Mama!
 * Kiragi: Well, aren't you a clever one? So what is it exactly that you've been doing?
 * Kana: Mostly I've been trying to help out around the camp. I spend each morning making arrows for the fletchers. Then at lunch I chop the bear meat for the mess cook and hand out the food. Oh! And at night, I make sure the mounts are all fed and outfitted for the next day. Plus, I do a bunch of other little things whenever I have time!
 * Kiragi: Y-you do all that? Every day?
 * Kana: Yup!
 * Kiragi: That's...impressive. More than impressive. You're really growing up, aren't you?
 * Kana: Huh?
 * Kiragi: Oh, it's just...I think I might have been treating you like a child too... Wasn't that long ago you were still soiling your underthings. And now, all of a sudden, you're making real, important contributions to the army.
 * Kana: Heehee. I've been working real hard. Soon, there'll be nothing I can't do!
 * Kiragi: Heh. I believe it! I'm sure Avatar is very grateful for all the good work you've been doing too.
 * Kana: "Good work"... Hm, I just realized...she hasn't actually been saying "thank you" to me very much. She just tells me "good work" and smiles. It's kind of a sad smile, come to think of it...
 * Kiragi: Aw, I wouldn't overthink it too much... More importantly, this means you've been cheating! I knew you couldn't beat my tally! But I guess I'll let it slide...this time.
 * Kana: Haha. I guess you're right. I'll just have to work even harder for Mama tomorrow! I'm not gonna lose to you, Papa! I won't sleep until Mama thanks me twice as much!

 * Kana: *grumble*
 * Kiragi: Hey there, Kana.
 * Kana: Hi, Papa...
 * Kiragi: Hey, what's wrong? I figured you'd still be gloating over your victory in our little contest.
 * Kana: Oh, I'm still sort of happy about that, I guess, but... I was trying to help out Mama earlier, but she made me stop. She said I should be spending more time playing around with my friends. She still thinks I'm just a kid. Haven't I shown her that I can help out with stuff too? Or am I messing up? Is she just pretending I'm doing a good job?
 * Kiragi: Ah, is that it? Well, don't worry too much about it, yeah? Your mother really does think you're doing a wonderful job. And she's very proud.
 * Kana: Then why would she rather I not help out with anything anymore?
 * Kiragi: She's just sad that you're growing up, is all.
 * Kana: Huh? Why?
 * Kiragi: She doesn't want you to miss out on being a child. And more than that, she doesn't want to lose her baby boy. Parents are fickle creatures. They don't want their kids to stay kids... But they also don't want them to grow up and become independant. They feel like they're not needed anymore. And it hurts.
 * Kana: I still don't get think I get it...
 * Kiragi: Heh. Yeah, it doesn't make much sense, does it? But that's all right. All you need to do for now is just do us a favor, OK? Keep helping Mama, but don't work yourself quite as hard. Take breaks to see your friends and play games and stuff. You know. And every now and then, try to spend some quality time with your mother. Think you can handle that?
 * Kana: B-but...
 * Kiragi: Hm? Do you not want to spend time with your mother?
 * Kana: No, that's not it! It's just...I feel like that stuff is for babies.
 * Kiragi: No, Kana. It's not for babies. It's for children. And she wants you to be a child for just a little while longer. Both of us do.
 * Kana: Papa...
 * Kiragi: Kana, we know you're growing up and that you want to be reliable. You're going to be a great man someday. Everyone knows it. But for now...just relax. Enjoy yourself. At least a little bit, here and there.
 * Kana: Ok. Thanks, Papa. I'll think real hard about everything you've said.
 * Kiragi: Good! You know... I think maybe you and your mother should spend some time together tonight. Have a relaxing night in, just the two of you.
 * Kana: Wait! Aren't you gonna stay with us?
 * Kiragi: Me? Oh, no no no. I've got to do some preperations for the big hunt tomorro-
 * Kana: But, Papa! Don't you need to take a break sometimes too? I thought you wanted me and Mama to be happy!
 * Kiragi: Gah... Um. Well, when you put it like that... OK, sure. I suppose I can stay in tonight.
 * Kana: Yaaay!
 * Kiragi: I suppose it's been a while since we had some quality time as a family. Heh. This must be what happiness feels like.

 * Kana: Hey, Kiragi! Wanna go on a patrol with me?
 * Kiragi: Huh? You mean right now?


 * Kana: Mhm! I want to help everyone as much as I can! Which for now means patrolling as much as I can! Are you in?
 * Kiragi: Sure. What kind of big brother would I be if I weren't?


 * Kana: Yay! Let's go!
 * Kiragi: Er—wait. You mean just us?
 * Kana: Yup! We'll be OK, though. I've been training a whole lot!
 * Kiragi: But if it's just the two of us...
 * Kana: It'll be fine! With our special sibling powers, we can take out any bad guys that come our way!
 * Kiragi: Heh... All right. But just stay near me, OK?
 * Kana: Sure... Hey, Kiragi?
 * Kiragi: Hm?
 * Kana: How about we go on patrol every day?
 * Kiragi: E-every day?
 * Kana: Yeah! I mean, patrols need to be done every day anyway. Why not us?
 * Kiragi: Every day...
 * Kana: Is something the matter?
 * Kiragi: Ha... No, I was just thinking about how long it would be until I got to hunt again...
 * Kana: OK, good! I can't wait for tomorrow's patrol! Thanks, Kiragi!

 * Kana: Thanks for coming on patrol with me again today, Kiragi!
 * Kiragi: No problem, Kana. I've been enjoying it more and more lately. And it's been really great seeing how strong and reliable you've gotten.
 * Kana: Really? You mean it?!
 * Kiragi: Yep! I think you've got a natural talent for this sort of thing.
 * Kana: Aw! Thanks! What about you? Do you have any special talents, Kiragi?
 * Kiragi: Nothing secret, really. I'm just good with a bow.
 * Kana: Yeah, but you're really, really good with it! I bet with our skills combined, we're unstoppable!
 * Kiragi: Yeah, probably!
 * Kana: Heehee. OK, now let's get moving! We've still got a ways to go if we're gonna be the best patrollers in camp.

 * Kana: Kiragi! Guess what time it is! That's right, it's patrol tiiiimmmmeeeeee!
 * Kiragi: Haha. All right, all right. Let's go.
 * Kana: Er, but first...I wanted to ask you a favor.
 * Kiragi: A favor? Sure, what is it?
 * Kana: I want you to teach me how to be like you!
 * Kiragi: You want to be like me? What do you mean?
 * Kana: I mean I wanna learn how to shoot a bow like you do!
 * Kiragi: Huh? Where's this coming from?
 * Kana: Well, see, I'm the youngest kid in camp, right? So there's a lot I still can't do. I know I can't just become a grown-up, but I CAN try to learn lots of different skills. Besides, I've always wanted to learn something from my big brother. I used to wonder a lot about what it would be like to spend more time with you...
 * Kiragi: Kana...
 * Kana: So I want to learn as much as possible from you, now that I can! Is that OK?
 * Kiragi: Of course it's OK.
 * Kana: Thank you so much!
 * Kiragi: But I'm not going to let you get ahead of me that easy. I want to learn from you too. So let's compete to see who can become stronger the fastest!
 * Kana: OK, but I'm not gonna be the one to lose! That's a promise!
 * Kiragi: All right, then. Today is patrol duty. Tomorrow, the real training begins!
 * Kana: Sounds good to me!

 * Kana: Hey, Papa? There's something I wanted to ask you about, if that's OK...
 * Asugi: Yeah? What do you need, little man?
 * Kana: Well, see, it's Mama. She's always treating me like a child.
 * Asugi: Of course she is. You're her son. It doesn't matter how old you get, she'll always think of you as her child.
 * Kana: I know, I know. I just mean I'm not as much of a child as I used to be. I want to help out more. But whenever I try, she just tells me to go play with my friends instead.
 * Asugi: I see. You want some responsibilities of your own/
 * Kana: Right! I want to be someone she can rely on. Do you have any ideas for things I could do for her?
 * Asugi: Hm... Usually, I just tend to share my candy with her. She's got a bigger sweet tooth than you'd think.
 * Kana: And that makes her happy?
 * Asugi: Oh, sure. You should see how she smiles when I bring her a candy apple.
 * Kana: Oh...
 * Asugi: But I suppose that's not of much use to you, huh? Let me think...
 * Kana: Oh, I know! Let's have a contest, Papa!
 * Asugi: A contest? What kind of contest?
 * Kana: Yeah! We'll have a contest to see which of us can make Mama happier. Between the two of us, I'm sure we can come up with all sorts of things. Whoever gets thanked the most wins!
 * Asugi: A little father-son competition, huh? Sounds fun. All right. I'm in.
 * Kana: Woohoo!
 * Asugi: But let me warn you. I'm the one that won your mother's heart. You're going to have a tough time if you aim to beat me. And I'm not going to go easy on you, you hear?
 * Kana: That's fine with me, Papa. I'm gonna beat you fair and square!
 * Asugi: Heh... Then let the games begin!

B Support

 * Kana: Hey, Papa! I've been making a ton of progress on our contest! How about you?
 * Asugi: Well, I haven't done anything special yet, but I've still gotten a few thanks. Let's see, I've got a tally here... Ah! There it is.
 * Kana: WOW! That's a lot! You got all of these already?
 * Asugi: Yeah, I guess I never noticed just how much I do for her before...I guess I make a pretty good husband after all.
 * Kana: Well...I'm still not gonna lose! Here, see! I recorded all of mine, too. And the total is...um...
 * Asugi: H-hey! What is this?! You've got the same number I do!
 * Kana: I do? I do! haha! Kana's gonna beat you big-time! After all, I don't have to work, so I can spend all day doing things for Mama!
 * Asugi: Ah, so that's your secret. And just what have you been doing with all that time?
 * Kana: Mostly I've been trying to help out around camp. I spend morning make arrows for the fletchers. Then at lunch I cut up vegetables for the cooks and hand out the food. Oh! And at night, I make sure the mounts are all fed and outfitted for the next day. Plus I do a bunch of other little things whenever I have time!
 * Asugi: That's quite a lot of work. And you've bee doing this everyday? Heh. You really have grown up, haven't you?
 * Kana: Huh?
 * Asugi: Just a thought. Perhaps I have been treating you like too much of a child as well. Wasn't that long ago when you were a little babe in swaddling clothes. And now, all of a sudden, you're making real, important contributions to the army.
 * Kana: Heehee. Yeah, I've been working real hard. Soon there'll be nothing I can't do!
 * Asugi: I believe it. And I bet (Avatar)is very grateful for all the good work you've been doing.
 * Kana: "Good work"... Hm. I just realized...Mama hasn't really been saying "thank you" to be very much. She just tells me "good work" and smiles. It's kind of a sad smile, come to think of it...
 * Asugi: Mm. I wouldn't overthink it. You're doing good work. And more importantly, this means you've been cheating me, you little wart! The contest was to see who could get thanked the most!
 * Kana: Haha! I guess you're right. But I'm still not gonna lose to you, Papa! I won't sleep until Mama thanks me twice as much!
 * Asugi: (Grrr...this might be harder than I'd thought.)

 * Kana: *grumble*
 * Asugi: Hey there, Kana.
 * Kana: Hi, Papa...
 * Asugi: Something the matter? I would have expected you to be exulting over your little victory the other day. Or has beating your old man in a contest already lost it's novelty?
 * Kana: Oh, no, Papa. I'm still happy about that, I guess. It's just that I was trying to do things for Mama earlier, but she made me stop. She said I should be spending more time playing around with my friends. She still thinks I'm just a kid. Haven't I shown her that I can help out with stuff too? Am I messing up? Is she just pretending I'm doing a good job?
 * Asugi: Oh, is that it? Don't worry, it's not you. You're doing a great job.
 * Kana: Then why doesn't she want me to help with anything?
 * Asugi: I think (Avatar) knows full well you're capable of taking on responsibilities. But it makes her worry. And it makes her feel lonely.
 * Kana: Huh? Why?
 * Asugi: Well, she doesn't want you to miss out on your childhood. And she doesn't want to lose her baby boy. She's happy to see you're growing up, but she's worried you won't need her anymore.
 * Kana: But...I'm just trying to pull my own weight. I don't get why that would be a bad thing...
 * Asugi: Heh. I'm not sure I do either. But here's a suggestion for you. Keep helping Mama like you have been, but don't work yourself quite as hard. Take breaks to see your friends and play games and all that. And it wouldn't hurt to try and spend some quality time with her now and then. Think you can handle that?
 * Kana: But...
 * Asugi: Hm? Do you not want to spend time with your mother?
 * Kana: No, that's not it! It's just...I feel like that stuff is for babies.
 * Asugi: No, Kana. It's not for babies. It's for children. And she wants you to be a child for just a little while longer. We both do.
 * Kana: Papa...
 * Asugi: Kana, we know you're growing up and that you want to be relied upon. You're going to be a great man someday. Everybody knows it. But for now...just relax. Enjoy yourself. At least a little bit, here and there.
 * Kana: OK... Thanks, Papa. I'll think real hard about everything you've said.
 * Asugi: Good. You know... I think it would be good if you spent some quality time with your mother tonight. Have a relaxing night in, just the two of you.
 * Kana: W-wait! Aren't you gonna stay with us?
 * Asugi: What? Oh, no, I have some honey cakes to se—
 * Kana: But, Papa! Don't you need to take a break sometimes too? I thought you wanted me and Mama to be happy!
 * Asugi: A-all right. Sure. When you put it like that...
 * Kana: Yaaay!
 * Asugi: Heh. So a night in with the family, huh...? You know, I think it won't be half-bad.

 * Selkie: Hi, Kana.
 * Kana: Er, why are you staring at me?
 * Selkie: You're neat.
 * Kana: Huh? I am?
 * Selkie: Of course! When you turn into a dragon, anyway. Then you look so big and tough. And you ARE big and tough!
 * Kana: Stop! You'll make me blush. I think you're neat, too, when you turn into a fox.
 * Selkie: You think so?
 * Kana: You can jump super high and run really, really, fast. I can't do that.
 * Selkie: You, jealous of me? When here I've been jealous of you?
 * Kana: I guess so. How weird. How about sometime you turn into a fox, I'll turn into a dragon, and you can ride me.
 * Selkie: What? That sounds like the most fun thing ever.
 * Kana: No way. There's got to be some way we can make it even more fun.
 * Selkie: We'll do that and go hunting. I'll listen for prey—you can swoop in on it!
 * Kana: You've got that amazing sense of hearing, after all.
 * Selkie: I know! So between your wings and my ears, we'll catch lots of game. We'll feast for days.

 * Selkie: I can't believe how well our hunt went, Kana!
 * Kana: A fox riding a dragon—how could that NOT go well? Of course, you knew exactly were I should go next.
 * Selkie: My ears were made to pick up on the sounds of easy meat. But the way you attack—so fast— there's no time for prey to escape.
 * Kana: We're a great team. And tonight we'll have a well-deserved feast.
 * Selkie: I can't wait to go hunting again.
 * Kana: I wonder what else we could do, since we work so well together?
 * Selkie: What else?
 * Kana: I bet we'd be great in battle. I mean, no enemy would be able to survive against us.
 * Selkie: I could use my hearing to find out who we should attack next.
 * Kana: And then I could unleash my dragon attacks. Perfect!
 * Selkie: More strategic, right?
 * Kana: Right. Everyone's going to be so jealous of what we can don!
 * Selkie: Hmm. I wonder what other fox-dragon techniques we can come up with.
 * Kana: We should come up with a bunch of dual attacks.
 * Selkie: We'll invent 'em the next time we go out hunting.
 * Kana: We're unstoppable.
 * Selkie: And hungry—time to eat?
 * Kana: Let's use our dual chewing techniques!

 * Selkie: Everyone loves our dual techniques, Kana.
 * Kana: We're really getting noticed.

 * Kana: I did? Yeah, I guess I might have said that.
 * Selkie: I mean, no matter what we do, it's super fun.
 * Kana: It's nuts how fun it is.
 * Selkie: I think that makes us pretty much inseparable.
 * Kana: Inseparable?
 * Selkie: OK, best friends then.
 * Kana: Best friends.

 * Kana: What? Like, LIKE me, like me?
 * Selkie: Yep. how could I not? You're a dragon. I'm a fox. We're best friends. We laugh a lot too. We don't mind being completely silly in front of each other.

 * Kana: Hey, Mitama. Say, what are you doing with all that paper?
 * Mitama: I'm just working on a new poem, Kana.
 * Kana: You really love writing poetry, huh? Why is it so interesting to you?
 * Mitama: Well, it's always been my passion. I couldn't really tell you why exactly.
 * Kana: Isn't it really hard though? I couldn't write a pretty poem to save my life.
 * Mitama: You never know... You are still too young / To understand the beauty / That is poetry...
 * Kana: I just don't think that it's my thing, honestly.
 * Mitama: How is that possible? No one can resist the beauty of a carefully constructed verse.
 * Kana: I've never really enjoyed reading or listening to poems though.
 * Mitama: Well it's clear that my tutelage is needed for you to actually appreciate poetry.
 * Kana: Huh? What does "Too-ta-lidge" mean anyway?
 * Mitama: It means I'm going to teach you all about the world of poetry. To begin, I think you should try your hand at writing one. There's no better way to understand how divine the written word can be.
 * Kana: You want me to write poetry so that I'll be able to appreciate it more?
 * Mitama: Precisely. When we meet next, I'll prepare a brush and paper for you. Then we can try to work on some poems together. What do you say?
 * Kana: OK, sure! This is actually pretty exciting.
 * Mitama: That's wonderful to hear, Kana. I'll come and fetch you when I've collected all of the supplies. See you soon.
 * Kana: I can't wait!

B Support

 * Kana: *sigh*
 * Kana: Hmm...
 * Mitama: Kana, you've been staring at that blank piece of paper for 20 minutes already. Can you hurry up and write something already? My patience is wearing thin.
 * Kana: But I can't think of anything. What am I supposed to do? I knew this would be too tough for me...
 * Mitama: Don't be so dramatic. You're making this harder than it needs to be. Begin by looking deeper into the subject of your poem. Reach into that river of emotion that rushes within you. Take a deep breath... And put all those feelings into words. It's that simple.
 * Kana: No it's not! This is really hard! Don't you understand, Mitama? That's why you're so amazing! Writing doesn't come naturally to everyone. Wait a second—I have an idea. Could I maybe start with something easier?
 * Mitama: Easier? What do you mean exactly?
 * Kana: Hmm. Well, poems are similar to word puzzles, don't you think? If that's the case, why not just turn it into an ABC game? That might help me get the ball rolling.
 * Mitama: So you think that determining a starting letter will make writing a poem simpler?
 * Kana: Exactly! Let me give you an example. I'll use the letters in your name. Hm, OK... M stands for "My heart is filled with joy!" I stands for "I appreciate your help, even though you're a little intense." T stands for "Treating everyone with respect and love."
 * Mitama: You call that a poem? First off, there are way too many syllables. And second, it's not truly coming from your heart, Kana.
 * Kana: What do you mean? Is it really that bad?
 * Mitama: That's just not how poems should work. Don't just throw out words randomly. Take the time to cultivate them. Let each thought come together naturally. By restricting yourself to a syllable limit, each word is filled with precision. Each word means something.
 * Kana: Hmm, I've never thought of it that way...
 * Mitama: My father once wrote a poem for me many years ago. I found it quite moving.
 * Kana: What kind of poem was it?
 * Mitama: It went like this... I have promised you / That I would come to see you / But each time, I can't. I hope that one day / I can look upon your face / And smile once again... When I received this poem, I hadn't seen my father for some time. But through his words, I could feel a wellspring of emotion and sadness. It was actually difficult to believe at first. It seemed unlike him. I was so taken aback that it actually made me laugh!
 * Kana: Wow, I had no idea that poems could move someone so deeply.
 * Mitama: It's a bit like magic or alchemy, I suppose.
 * Kana: I'm sorry, Mitama. I promise I'll try harder from here on out!
 * Mitama: Excellent. I'll do everything I can to help guide your progress.

 * Mitama: This isn't another of your strange word- puzzle poems, is it?
 * Kana: No way! This is an honest-to-gods poem! Just let me read it before you judge me. Ahem... My pal Mitama / Is great at writing poems / And she's amazing! See? Wasn't that great?!
 * Mitama: Well, that was an improvement... But I'm afraid you still have a great deal of work to do.
 * Kana: What do you mean?! That was way better! Are you saying it's still not good enough?
 * Mitama: It's no good, Kana / No, as a matter of fact / It's no good at all. Do you really think you'll move someone's heart by making a simple statement? Wake up, Kana. That's not real poetry.
 * Kana: M-maybe you're right...
 * Mitama: Don't lose heart. You clearly are improving.
 * Kana: Huh? Do you mean it?
 * Mitama: Yes, of course. I wouldn't lie to you.
 * Kana: Yaaayyy! Mitama complimented me. I did it! Hooorraayyy!
 * Mitama: Don't start celebrating just yet. There's one thing that every true poet must accomplish. You have to be able to write a genuinely moving piece. It doesn't matter if it's romantic or simply about deep friendship. But it must come from a place of love.
 * Kana: Oh, I see. I guess I'll just have to keep working with you!
 * Mitama: Heehee, so you want to keep going, eh? I'm impressed. I thought you'd give up by now. Perhaps I underestimated you.
 * Kana: Yeah, maybe so. Umm, Mitama, why are you making that scary face all of a sudden?
 * Mitama: I'm just having a moment of inspiration. My mission is to guide you within the world of poetry. I will dedicate myself to helping you on your journey!

 * Mitama: Kana, how sweet!
 * Kana: I wanted to read you my poem and give you this flower I picked to thank you. Even though it was difficult, you helped me learn about how pretty poems can be. I had no idea before, and it's like I see everything differently now. I really put my heart into writing this for you, Mitama. Do you like it?
 * Mitama: How can this be? Though simple, your poem did touch my heart. I simply can't deny it...
 * Kana: Really?! You found it touching?!
 * Mitama: I did, Kana. It might not be perfect, but it came from your soul. Well done.
 * Kana: I'm so happy! Thanks, Mitama!
 * Mitama: While this was a great first step, you must keep striving to improve. Every great poet has to work tirelessly to improve their craft.
 * Kana: Hmm, I guess that makes sense. So do you still work on writing every day? How do you know when you've actually become a real poet?
 * Mitama: That's difficult to say. I write each and every day. But am I a master? No, not yet. And perhaps I never will be. But my heart beats for nothing else.
 * Kana: Well I just know you're going to be the greatest writer of all time!
 * Mitama: You're far too kind, Kana. Say, I've got an idea. Would you like to hear it?
 * Kana: Of course! What is it?
 * Mitama: Why don't we go for a nice long walk. We can find a nice quiet clearing and work on our writing together. How does that sound?
 * Kana: Awesome! I already have my brush and paper ready to go!
 * Mitama: Excellent. Follow me then, young poet in training.

 * Kana:Hey, Mitama! Wanna go on a patrol with me?
 * Mitama:Little Kana asks / I ask him something in turn / Must we leave right now?

 * Kana:Woohoo! We should go patrolling every day!
 * Mitama:E-every day?
 * Kana:Yeah! I mean, patrols need to be done every day anyways! Why not by us?
 * Mitama:Every...day...
 * Kana:What's the matter, Mitama?
 * Mitama:Well...I think I'd rather sleep than spend every day patrolling.
 * Kana:Oh. Well, I guess that's OK too. It just means I'll have to enjoy today even more!

 * Kana:Thanks for coming on patrol with me today, Mitama!

 * Mitama:Of course. Do you not remember how you carried me around after I fell asleep the other day? Mitama dozed well / On the walking Kana bed / Thank you, little cot. I think you've got a natural talent for being a bed. And for patrolling, of course.
 * Kana:Heehee. Thanks! What about you? Do you have any special talents?
 * Mitama:One for poetry. / One for the catching of Zs. / And none else beside. I guess I'm OK at treating the wounded as well.
 * Kana:Heh. I bet if we teamed up, we'd be unstoppable!
 * Mitama:Ha ha. I am not so sure. But we would be formidable, at the very least.
 * Kana:Yeah! Now, we should get moving. We're burning daylight here! We've still got a long ways to go if we're gonna be the best patrollers in camp!

 * Mitama:A favor? What kind?
 * Kana:I want you to teach me how to be like you!
 * Mitama:You want me to teach you how to sleep a lot?
 * Kana:Yeah! I mean no! I mean—I want to learn how to heal people like you do! 'Cause I'm the youngest kid in camp, right? So there's a lot I still can't do. But if I learn a bunch of new skills, maybe I could be more useful... Besides, I've always wanted to learn something from my big sister! I used to wonder a lot about what it would be like to spend more time with you...
 * Mitama:Kana...
 * Kana:So now that I can, I wanna learn as much as possible! ...Is that OK?
 * MitamaOf course it's OK. / My heart blooms a thousand times / Hearing your question. I will teach you everything I know.
 * Kana:Thank you so much, Mitama!
 * Mitama: Heh. If you get good enough, you won't need to rely on me anymore. Which means more naps for Mitama, of course. You know what this means, right? It means I'm going to work you to the bone. Now prepare yourself. We have a long 72 hours ahead of us.
 * Kana:OK! I'm not gonna let you down, Sis!
 * MitamaPray you do not. So, then—today, patrol duty. Tomorrow, the real training begins.

 * Caeldori: This is a nightmare...
 * Kana: Caeldori, what's wrong? You look really upset. Did something happen?
 * Caeldori: My kin is breaking out really badly today. It's so depressing... I can't even focus on training when I look like this. My heart's just not in int. I don't know what to do.
 * Kana: Oh, that's it? Your skin?
 * Caeldori: You're probably wondering why something so trivial would bother me, right? Maybe you just can't understand since you're so young... but having my face be all splotchy drives me crazy.
 * Kana: Ahh, I understand. Wait, I have an idea! Here, take this piece of fruit. It's supposed to be a excellent for curing breakouts. It also tastes really great too!
 * Caeldori: Kana, I couldn't. This fruit belongs to you. It would be rude to eat your snack.
 * Kana: Not at all. Really, I want you to have it. I'll just grab more later today.
 * Caeldori: That's very thoughtful of you, Kana. Thank you.
 * Kana: No problem. I hope it makes your skin clean up!
 * Caeldori: You and me both, heehee!
 * Kana: I'm a little surprised to see you like this. You're always so energetic and happy. I've never seen you depressed before.
 * Caeldori: Everyone has a bad day occasionally, right? I assume you do too once in a while.
 * Kana: Yeah I guess so. Sometimes I just want to run around and play all day. But then sometimes it will be rainy and I can't talk to anyone, so I get sad. Is that what you mean?
 * Caeldori: Yes, exactly. If things were always prefect, we wouldn't appreciate the truly good days. Anyways, I'm going to eat this fruit now. Would you like to split it with me?
 * Kana: But I just gave it to you...
 * Caeldori: I don't think it will be less effective if I don't eat every bite. Really, I'd be more than happy to share.
 * Kana: Hmm, that's a good point. I guess I will have a bite. But only if you don't mind.
 * Caeldori: I don't at all. It's decided then. Just give me one second to get this open.
 * Kana: OK!

 * Caeldori: There you are, Kana. I've been wanting to ask you something.
 * Kana: Oh yeah? What is it?
 * Caeldori: Where did you get the fruit you gave me the other day? I'm dying to know.
 * Kana: Fruit? Oh, you mean the one that I thought might help clean up your skin, right?
 * Caeldori: Exactly! After I ate it, my skin tone was back to normal in no time. I wanted to try eating it again. Maybe that way, my skin won't break out again.
 * Kana: Oh, well there were a ton of them piled up in a food storage shed. I bet if you ask the guard nicely, he'd probably give you some.
 * Caeldori: Hmm, OK. Good to know.
 * Kana: Why don't you and I go together? We could probably get a whole bunch of fruit if we teamed up!
 * Caeldori: Sure, that's a good idea. Thanks, Kana.
 * Kana: No problem! I'm glad that I could help. It's a little embarrassing to admit, but I've always admired you.
 * Caeldori: What? Really? I had no idea.
 * Kana: It's the truth. You almost have a shining aura around you. You're so cool in every way. The way you ride into battle or even just make a simple meal is amazing. I've always thought so. There's just no one else like you around!
 * Caeldori: What? I'm shocked to hear you say that. No one has ever talked about me like that before.
 * Kana: Seeing you in action always makes me want to work harder to improve. Talking about all this makes me feel a little bashful, hahaha.
 * Caeldori: Heehee, I feel the same way. You're very sweet, Kana.

 * Kana: Haha, you think so, huh? I guess we have been supporting each other lately. Needles to say, I'm always happy to help you any way I can.
 * Caeldori: I appreciate that, Kana. I've been feeling a little guilty about asking for your help all the time. Is there anything I can do to pay you back?
 * Kana: Huh? You don't need to repay me, Caeldori. Like I said, I was happy to help!
 * Caeldori: No, you don't understand. I want to. It would mean a lot to me for us to be even. Doesn't that make sense?
 * Kana: Sure, I guess so. But off the top of my head, I can't think of anything. Hmm... Wait a minute—I know!
 * Caeldori: You thought of something?
 * Kana: Sure did! I've been studying a ton lately. But I can't wrap my head around some of the subjects. It's really frustrating. Would you be willing to be my tutor? I don't want to fall behind...
 * Caeldori: Of course. That's no problem at all. I'm always studying anyways and have a knack for explaining tough concepts. Feel free to ask me as many questions as you like!
 * Kana: I knew I could count on you, Caeldori!
 * Caeldori: You sure can. I'm just relieved that we can be square now. So what did you need my help with? Math? Battle tactics? Or is it history, perhaps?
 * Kana: All of the above. But maybe we should just start with math. With your help, I bet studying will be all kinds of fun! We should get started right away!
 * Caeldori: You're going to be a math genius in no time, Kana.

 * Caeldori: Heehee, that's wonderful to hear!
 * Kana: You're so amazing, Caeldori. I hope that you'll be my teacher forever!
 * Caeldori: That's sweet of you to say. But you flatter me too much, Kana.
 * Kana: It's the truth though! I'm always having fun when we're together. You even make studying a blast! So um... W-will you be my girlfriend?
 * Caeldori: Oh, Kana. I can't be your girlfriend, silly! But I'll always be your friend.
 * Kana: *sigh* OK... Promise you'll be my friend forever?
 * Caeldori: Of course. I wouldn't trade that for anything.

 * Kana: How'd you know I was following you?
 * Rhajat: I sensed it one hundred years ago.
 * Kana: Heh? Really? Darn.
 * Rhajat: Why are you plaguing my existence?
 * Kana: I want to see you do more miracles, like curing cavities. You're amazing!
 * Rhajat: I said that it was paltry stuff—beneath the dignity of my darkness.
 * Kana: No way. It was neat.
 * Rhajat: What do you know of this thing you call "neat," Kana? Besides, you already have one much closer to you who is "neat." I mean Avatar, of course.
 * Kana: Huh? Mama?
 * Rhajat: That's right. There is a woman whose achievements are worth reverence.
 * Kana: Mama is neat, I guess. Wait. Are you fond of Mama?
 * Rhajat: Fond? Fond isn't even a drop in the bucket of it. I watch her like a goddess walking among us. Her prowess in battle! Her grace under pressure! She is perfection personified!
 * Kana: Mama makes me brush my teeth.
 * Rhajat: And did you? If you had, maybe you wouldn't have gotten that cavity. You're so fortunate to have her in your life, while I must watch from afar.
 * Kana: You can ask her for advice anytime, you know. Mama's nice. Except when she says it's time for me to go to bed! But if you want me to pass along any questions for Mama, I'm glad to help.
 * Rhajat: A go-between? Intriguing. Hmm, what question should I put first into the hands of my little courier...?
 * Kana: Is that a smile on your face, Rhajat? Er, and a drop of sweat?

 * Rhajat: That's fine. I'm getting used to you. Now, what can I help you with? Have another toothache? Or did someone put a tricky curse on you? I've been looking everywhere for something interesting to do today.
 * Kana: No cavity. No curse. But, uh, Rhajat? I've come to get that question for Mama. But can I ask some things of you?
 * Rhajat: Things? Yes, ask.
 * Kana: Really? I didn't think you'd agree. I was getting the idea you didn't like me much. Wait, is this a trick?
 * Rhajat: No, Kana. You see, I've had time to think since our last chat. I admire your mother so much. Why shouldn't I like her dragonspawn?
 * Kana: Oh, sure. I guess.
 * Rhajat: Did I say something to upset you?
 * Kana: You don't like many people. But you like Mama. And now me. But you wouldn't pay any attention to me at all if I wasn't her son.
 * Rhajat: Hmm. True. And yet, not. Your candor catches me by surprise. And so...? I think you're unusual enough to hold my interest all on your own. Maybe. Anyway, I'm sorry if I made you feel bad. That wasn't my intention.
 * Kana: Really?
 * Rhajat: Besides, it isn't all bad that you think it's neat that I can cure a toothache. Some shy away from the dark majesty of Rhajat. You seek me out. I welcome your friendship.
 * Kana: You mean it? We're...we're friends?

 * Kana: Whurrrk? What? Who? Oh. Did I nod off, Siegbert?
 * Siegbert: I'm afraid so. You must be tired.
 * Kana: Er, yes. Extremely.
 * Siegbert: I'm not surprised with your new schedule. Waking at dawn, morning chores. Then battle tactics—both land and sea. Even equestrian training. I'm impressed, Kana. You’ve taken on a lot!
 * Kana: I just wanted to live and learn as fully as you do… But, uh… *yawn* I'm…I'm…
 * Siegbert: Your elocution is curtailed when articulating through a yawn? Is that what you meant?
 * Kana: Uh, no. but I've got to keep trying to pack more into my day, Siegbert.
 * Siegbert: I think you dove in headfirst. Try dipping your toe in. A lighter schedule at first might be a better start.
 * Kana: *yawn* All right.
 * Siegbert: Oh, I know. How about no schedule at all, but instead keep a daily log? If you write down all the things you do, you'll want to do more to write down! I think it would be a much better way for you to begin all this.
 * Kana: I should write on a log?
 * Siegbert: In a log—you know, a booklet! It's the perfect motivational tool.
 * Kana: Then I can show it to Mama too. She’ll see how hard I'm trying!
 * Siegbert: Oh? Every bit of motivation helps. Now, let’s find you a log so you can start.
 * Kana: Let's go! Let’s go!

 * Kana: I've been so busy since dawn, Siegbert! I've filled a page of my got-done log!
 * Siegbert: Really? It's amazing how much more one gets done if one wakes early.
 * Kana: I helped Mama make breakfast and did all the laundry myself too.
 * Siegbert: Soon you'll be ready to put together a schedule that makes you happy.
 * Kana: I've already done that too. Tomorrow I'll be studying battle tactics at this time! I don't know what I did all day long before I used your get-more-done tips.
 * Siegbert: Looks like I've created a monster!
 * Kana: Yes! I'm a goblin of productivity. Thanks for helping me, Siegbert.
 * Siegbert: Ha! I just hope you have time in your new schedule to spend time with me.
 * Kana: Of course! I've penned you in for a quarter to noon tomorrow. Just 15 minutes, but I'm sure we can make the most of it.
 * Siegbert: A short jog, perhaps?
 * Kana: Twice around the lake! Be sure to write me into your schedule though so you don't forget. I know how busy you are. I'm not nearly the do-it-all master you are.
 * Siegbert: Soon I'm sure the student will outdo the master. I look forward to it!
 * Kana: Oh, gosh. I don't mean it to be a competition. But if I'm a goblin of productivity, you'd better watch your back, Siegbert!

 * Kana: Hey, Siegbert! Wanna go on patrol with me?
 * Siegbert: Hm? You mean right now?

 * Kana: Yup! You'll be OK, though. I've been training a whole lot.

 * Kana: Yeah! I mean, patrols need to be done every day anyways. Why not by us?
 * Siegbert: Every... day...
 * Kana: What's the matter, Siegbert?

 * Kana: Thanks for coming on patrol with me today, Siegbert!
 * Siegbert: No problem, Kana. I've actually been enjoying these patrols quite a bit. It's nice watching my brother grow into such a capable young man.

 * Siegbert: Yeah. I think you've got a natural talent for this sort of thing.
 * Kana: Heehee. Thanks! What about you? Do you have any special talents, Siegbert?
 * Siegbert: Me? Hm. I wouldn't say I'm spectacular at anything. But I suppose I've done a lot of studying on how to command an army in battle.
 * Kana: Wow, Siegbert, that's amazing! I bet if we combined our talents, we'd be unstoppable!
 * Siegbert: I don't know about unstoppable... But formidable? Definitely!
 * Kana: All right, enough chatting. We should get moving. We're burning daylight here! We've still got a long ways to go if we're gonna be the best patrollers in camp.

 * Kana: Siegbert! Guess what time it is! That's riiiiiight! It's patrol time!
 * Siegbert: All right, sure. Let's go.
 * Kana: Er, but... first I wanted to ask you for a favor.
 * Siegbert: A favor? What is it?
 * Kana: I want you to teach me how to be like you!
 * Siegbert: Huh? What do you mean?
 * Kana: Like, all of that tactics stuff you were saying you were good at! 'Cause I'm the youngest kid in the camp, right? So there's a lot I still can't do. I know I can't just become a grown-up, but I can try to learn lots of different skills. Besides, I've always wanted to learn something from my big brother! I used to wonder a lot about what it would be like to spend more time with you.
 * Siegbert: Kana...
 * Kana: So now that I can, I want to learn as much as possible from you! Is that OK?
 * Siegbert: Of course it's OK. I'm glad you asked me.
 * Kana: Thank you so much!
 * Siegbert: But I'm not going to let you get ahead of me that easy. I want to learn from you too. Let's make it a competition to see who can grow stronger the fastest!
 * Kana: OK, but I'm not gonna be the one to lose! That's a promise!
 * Siegbert: Heh. Me either. All right, then. Today is patrol duty. Tomorrow, the real training begins!
 * Kana: Sounds good to me!

 * Kana: Hey, Papa. Can I talk to you about something?
 * Forrest: Sure, Kana. What is it?
 * Kana: It's Mama. I feel like she's always treating me like a child.
 * Forrest: Well, that's only natural. You're her son... And you ARE still pretty young.
 * Kana: I know, I know. I just mean I'm not as young as I used to be. I want to help with things. But whenever I try, she just tells me to go play with my friends instead.
 * Forrest: Ah, I see. You want some responsibilities of your own.
 * Kana: Yeah! I want to show her she can rely on me. I wonder if there's anything I could do that would make her super happy...
 * Forrest: Hmm... Well, I usually make pretty clothes for her. She seems to love that!
 * Kana: Oh...
 * Forrest: Hm? What's wrong?
 * Kana: I can't make clothes like you can, Papa. And besides, those are special Papa gifts. I don't wanna just copy you...
 * Forrest: Hm. Good point. Let me think...
 * Kana: Oh, I know! Let's have a contest, Papa!
 * Forrest: A contest?
 * Kana: Yeah! We'll have a contest to see which of us can make Mama happier! Between the two of us, I'm sure we can come up with all sorts of things! Whoever Mama thanks the most wins!
 * Forrest: Heehee... A contest between father and son, huh? Sounds fun. I'm in!
 * Kana: Really? Yay!
 * Forrest: But remember, I'm Avatar's husband. I love her more than anything in the world. So I'm going to take this competition seriously, all right? No pulling punches.
 * Kana: That's fine by me, Papa. I'm gonna beat you fair and square!
 * Forrest: Very well. Then let the best man win!

 * Kana: Hey, Papa! I've been making so much progress on our contest! How about you?
 * Forrest: Well, I haven't done anything too special yet, but I've been thanked a lot. I have a tally right...here! Take a look.
 * Kana: WOW! That's a lot! You got all these already?
 * Forrest: Yep! I'm as surprised as you are. I guess I do more for your mother than I thought!
 * Kana: Hmph... Well, I'm still not going to lose! Here, see! I recorded all mine too! And the total is...um...
 * Forrest: H-hey, wait! You have just as many as me! How did you even do this?
 * Kana: I do? I do! Haha! Kana's gonna beat you big-time, Papa! I don't have to work like you, so I can spend all day helping her!
 * Forrest: Ah, so that's your secret. And what all have you been doing for her?
 * Kana: Mostly I've been trying to help out around camp. I spend each morning making arrows for the fletchers. Then, at lunch, I slice the bear meat and hand out food to the soldiers. Oh, and at night I make sure the mounts are all fed and outfitted for the next day. Plus I do a bunch of other little things whenever I have the time!
 * Forrest: That's a lot of work! I'm impressed. You really have been growing up, haven't you?
 * Kana: Huh?
 * Forrest: Oh, just a thought. It wasn't so long ago you were still in your swaddling clothes. Now, all of a sudden, you're making real, important contributions to the army. Maybe I've been treating you like a child too.
 * Kana: Heehee. Yeah, I've been working real hard. Soon there'll be nothing I can't do!
 * Forrest: I believe it. And I bet your mother has been very proud of you.
 * Kana: I hope so! And I'm gonna try to make her even prouder tomorrow!
 * Forrest: Looks like this is getting interesting. Can't get careless now...

 * Kana: *grumble*
 * Forrest: Hey there, Kana.
 * Kana: Hi, Papa...
 * Forrest: What's the matter? I thought you'd be still exulting over your little victory the other day. Or has beating your old man lost its charm already?
 * Kana: Oh, no. I'm still happy about that, I guess. It's just that I was trying to do things for Mama earlier, and she made me stop. She said I should be spending more time playing around with my friends. She still thinks I'm just a kid. Haven't I shown her I'm old enough to handle helping out around camp?
 * Forrest: Ah, so that's it. I wouldn't worry. It's not you. You're doing good work. I promise.
 * Kana: Then why doesn't she want me to help with anything?
 * Forrest: I think your mother knows full well you're capable of handling the work. But seeing you acting so grown up makes her feel sad.
 * Kana: Huh? Why?
 * Forrest: Well, she doesn't want to lose her baby boy. She is very, very proud that you're growing up and working so hard. But at the same time, she's worried it means you won't need her anymore. It's a little contradictory, but it's true. Parents can be funny like that.
 * Kana: So...what should I do?
 * Forrest: I think you should keep helping around camp, but don't work yourself so hard. Take breaks to see your friends, play games, go on adventures. You know. And try to spend some quality time with your mother every now and then. Think you can handle that?
 * Kana: But...
 * Forrest: What's wrong? Do you not want to spend time with your mother?
 * Kana: No, that's not it! It's just... I feel like that stuff is for babies.
 * Forrest: No, Kana, it's not for babies. It's for children. And your mother wants you to stay a child for just a while longer. We both do.
 * Kana: Papa...
 * Forrest: Kana, we know that you're growing and that you want more responsibilities. And we know that you're going to be a fine young man someday. But for now...relax. Don't try to grow up too quickly.
 * Kana: OK. Thanks, Papa. I'll think real hard about everything you said.
 * Forrest: Good! You know... I think it would be good if you spend the night in with your mother. I'll go talk to her.
 * Kana: Wait! Aren't you gonna stay with us?
 * Forrest: What? Me? No, I've got to---
 * Kana: But, Papa! I thought you wanted me to enjoy my childhood. It wouldn't be much of a childhood without a papa...
 * Forrest: Erk. Well, when you put it that way... All right, all right. Go tell your mother.
 * Kana: Yaaay!
 * Forrest: Heh. Sometimes I wonder which of us is really in charge here... Ooh! Maybe I should whip us up some cute pajamas to wear!

 * Velouria: *sniff-sniff* Mmm, that smells just right. Aaaaaahmp... *om nom nom*
 * Kana: V-Velouria?! What are you doing? How could you eat that bread? I watched it fall on the ground!
 * Velouria: Oh, it's you, Kana. It sure did. I hope it wasn't yours. If so, I'm very sorry. I'd give it back, but it's already in my tummy.
 * Kana: Of course it wasn;t my bread. That's not the point! It's bad to eat things you picked up off the ground. You'll make yourself sick that way.
 * Velouria: What are you talking about? No I won't. I've never gotten sick before, and I do this all the time.
 * Kana: That may be, but you're tempting fate by eating tainted food.
 * Velouria: It's sweet that you're so concerned, but I have a system down. I can always tell if something is dirty just by looking at it. I should say if it's dirty enough. What's the point in eating something that isn't dusty?
 * Kana: Somehow, I'd forgotten about this aspect of your personality...
 * Velouria: If it were up to me, all the army meals would be nice and grimy. But you can't have everything I guess.
 * Kana: Yeesh. I could never eat what you do. Just the thought makes my tummy ache...
 * Velouria: I have a very sensitive nose. I always know when something is too nasty to eat. It's really not a problem. You don't need to worry about me! That's how I knew the bread was totally fine for me to eat.
 * Kana: You sound confident in what you say, but I still can't believe it.
 * Velouria: Well if that's true, why don't you go scavenging with me sometime? Normally I'm not that fond of strangers...But maybe we'd have fun together.
 * Kana: Whaat?! Are you serious? Hmm... I am concerned about your, umm, unique eating habits. OK, sure. Why not? I'll join you on your next scavenging trip.
 * Velouria: Excellent. I'll come fetch you soon then.

B Support

 * Velouria: Are you ready to go scavenging, Kana? You must be so excited, right?
 * Kana: Yeah, I guess so. I'm going to pay very close attention to everything you pick up.
 * Velouria: That's fine. Look over there. Generally lots of fruit gets dropped down on this road here.
 * Kana: Wow, you're right! We've already found a treasure trove. Relatively speaking at least.
 * Velouria: *sniff-sniff* This fruit just fell recently. It clearly hasn't been on the ground long.
 * Kana: How can you tell again, exactly? I don't understand...
 * Velouria: The smell makes it obvious.Personally I like it when the fruit is a bit more shriveled up and mushy...But beggars can't be choosers! *munch*
 * Kana: AAAHHH! Wait a minute! What are you doing?! Don't eat that!
 * Velouria: What is it, Kana? Oh, right. I should have let you have a taste too. Sorry for being thoughtless. That's why you're here, after all.
 * Kana: No, you don't get it! I wanted to stop you from eating that! That fruit might not have been moldy, but it was still covered with mud. Can't you at least wash before you eat it?
 * Velouria: Ehh, wiping it off is good enough for me. See? *om nom nom...*
 * Kana: I cannot believe that you just bit into that.
 * Velouria: Erk!
 * Kana: Wh-what's wrong?! Are you OK?
 * Velouria: Uuurgh! Oww, that hurt.
 * Kana: What hurts? Are you OK?
 * Velouria: I think there was a twig stuck inside the fruit. I didn't see it...I just cut the inside of my mouth a bit.
 * Kana: Are you sure that you're fine, Velouria? I told you we should have washed it first. If you had done that, then you would have seen the twig, right?
 * Velouria: I'll admit, that's a fair point.
 * Kana: The most important thing is that we tend to your cut right away. Come on. We should head back.
 * Velouria: OK, I guess you're right.

A Support

 * Kana: There you are, Velouria. How is your cut doing? Did it heal up OK?
 * Velouria: Oh yes, it's much better today. That was a stupid mistake.
 * Kana: It was just an accident...But I still think it would be smart to stop eating things you pick up from the ground.
 * Velouria: I thought of a simple solution for this problem already. Here, take a peek.
 * Kana: Hmm? Is that a canteen?
 * Velouria: Yes. I'll carry water with my while I walk. I also have a knife, so I can wash and peel any yummy-looking fruit that I find. What do you think?
 * Kana: Well, you're clearly committed to foraging.
 * Velouria: Well of course I am. It would be terrible to wast such delicious food! How could I pass it up?
 * Kana: I understand your point and all, but it still seems like a bad idea. Won't you reconsider?
 * Velouria: I'm a wolfskin, Kana. This is all perfectly natural to me. I'm just scavenging, like a sensible animal. But the truth is that cleaning my food makes food flavorless to me.
 * Kana: Listen, I'm not going to stop you. But you should let me help you choose which things to eat. That way I can stop you from biting into anything that might be dangerous. Or just really gross.
 * Velouria: So you want to be my companion, huh? That might be interesting.
 * Kana: What? I just wanted to help keep you safe. And I'm definitely not eating anything we find on the ground!
 * Velouria: Heehee, I like this idea, Kana. I bet everything will taste better if we're together.
 * Kana: You're really not hearing me at all...But taking a walk together does sound awfully fun. Fine. You're on, Velouria. Let's take a stroll and see what we find.
 * Velouria: OK... I'll lead the way.

S Support

 * Velouria: Heehee. I;ve been enjoying all these walks we've been going on lately. I really look forward to them.
 * Kana: Me too. We always end up having the most interesting chats. I have to give you some credit. It's amazing how you can determine if something is rotten just from its smell. Your senses are amazing.
 * Velouria: Thanks, Kana. You don't have to praise me so much. I'm flattered though...
 * Kana: Have you ever tried working on your cooking skills at all? I was talking to one of the army chefs, and he made a good point. Your talent for knowing if food is still good would be particularly valuable these days. With the scarcity of supplies, they could really use your unique gift.
 * Velouria: That doesn't interest me. I love my food to be nice and raw!
 * Kana: That's so weird. Everything tastes better when it's been cooked.
 * Velouria: Hmm, I have an idea. Maybe you can cook for me sometime? I can find all the ingredients, and you can whip something up. Then we can put this cooked food theory of yours to the test.
 * Kana: That's not a bad idea. Umm, Velouria... I have to tell you something.
 * Velouria: Oh? What is it?
 * Kana: Being around you all the time made me realize something...I think I have a crush on you.
 * Velouria: Wait, what? Kana, I don't know what to say. This is...surprising. You're like a little brother to me. I really don't want to hurt your feelings. You know that I always enjoy spending time with you, right?
 * Kana: I-I know... I'm sorry, Velouria. Maybe I should have kept that to myself...I've just felt really happy lately, and it's all thanks to you. But I realize that I shouldn't have said anything. I'm sorry.
 * Velouria: Please, don't apologize. You were just being honest. It was kind of sweet.
 * Kana: R-really? Do you wanna keep hanging out? We could even start making food right now if you wanted to. I'll cook, and you can scrounge up all the ingredients. I bet we'll make a great team!
 * Velouria: Sure, OK. I guess I'm fine with that.
 * Kana: Great! But can you do me a favor? Please don't bring me a bunch of rotten stuff you found on the ground.
 * Velouria: Why are you still hung up on that?
 * Kana: Please, don't look at me with your sad eyes, Velouria. I have a compromise. You can pick up food from the ground, but you have to wash it really well. And if it actually looks edible, then I will use it in my recipe. OK?
 * Velouria: That sounds fair. Leave it to me, Kana. I promise, you won't be disappointed.
 * Kana: I'm counting on you, Velouria!
 * Velouria: I'm counting on you too. I hope this meal turns out yummy...

 * Kana: Really? I thought it was someone else's turn to go on patrol tonight.
 * Percy: I volunteered. We'd all be in danger if the enemy suddenly crept up on us, right? So I figured I could chip in by watching over the camp with Ace. Together, we are the super-secret defender squad!
 * Kana: Wow... That sounds amazing! You guys are awesome!
 * Percy: Heheheh, thanks. I thought of the idea while I was watching Pop. He's always out on some heroic mission or another. I want to be just like him!
 * Kana: You're off to a great start! Umm, why are you holding on to that bag? Is that for your patrolling duties too?
 * Percy: It's a garbage bag. I realized that I might as well pick up litter while I'm out. That way, I can make the camp prettier while also keeping everyone safe. Plus with Ace by my side, we can reach trash down here or up in the trees.
 * Kana: Wow! What a great plan. That's smart thinking.
 * Percy: We've already filled a whole bag today. I think it's probably because of all the strong winds we've been getting lately.

 * Percy: Right?! I totally agree. I was pretty proud of myself when I came up with that name. But there is so much more I want to do. Eventually, I hope to become a brave knight so that I can protect everyone around me.
 * Kana: That makes sense. After all, your papa inspired you to create the squad, right? It seems like you're on the path to greatness. These voluntary patrols and cleanup trips are bound to aid your journey!
 * Percy: I hope so. Our duties are supposed to help us become great heroes!
 * Kana: Neat! What other activities did you have planned?
 * Percy: All kinds of stuff! We can take care of the dragons and pegasi... deliver packages to people. That kind of thing. Hopefully we can improve our strength and riding skills all at the same time.
 * Kana: That's a great plan, Percy. I just know that you'll be the strongest warrior ever someday. Say, where did you get that mask? It's so cool looking!
 * Percy: Thanks! This mask symbolizes my unending quest for justice!
 * Kana: Oh, that makes sense. It's almost like you're the commanding officer on our team.
 * Percy: C-commanding officer? Really?
 * Kana: Well, you are leading the charge and planning all the activities, right? So you totally are the commander!
 * Percy: Hahaha, I guess you're right. That makes me pretty happy!
 * Kana: I'll do whatever I can to help you, Commanding Officer Percy!
 * Percy: If I'm the commander, then you're my sergeant. I'm counting on your help!
 * Kana: Yes, sir!

 * Kana: Ready for our patrol, Percy?
 * Percy: Of course! It's been great having you around to help out. Ace thinks so too.
 * Kana: I'm just glad to be part of the team.
 * Percy: I've never met someone who works harder than you. Whenever we have to help out and do heavy lifting, you make it look easy. I'm really impressed!
 * Kana: No way, you're the impressive one. Your dynamic with Ace is amazing. It's like you can read each other's minds! It doesn't matter if you're picking up trash or delivering parcels. You two do everything perfectly. That's why you make such a perfect commanding officer, Percy.
 * Percy: Thanks, Kana. It's crazy how well you and Ace get along. He never gets along with strangers. When I saw how much he likes you, I realized you're not an ordinary person.
 * Kana: Geez, we sure have been complimenting each other a lot lately.
 * Percy: Hahaha, you're right! I guess we're becoming good friends, huh?
 * Kana: Yeah! Even though it can be exhausting, cleanup and patrols are a blast. Hey, I've been wondering about something. Why do you think we get along so well?
 * Percy: Hm... Maybe because we're both pretty adventurous and brave!
 * Kana: Yeah, good point. We should keep being pals, don't you think?
 * Percy: Of course! We should get back to our duties soon. Do you want to ride on Ace's back today?
 * Kana: Wow! That sounds awesome! But if I ride with you, would we be too heavy for Ace? Wait, I know what to do! I'll transform into a dragon and follow you guys. If people see two dragons side by side, any enemies who see us will be sure to flee! C'mon, let's go!
 * Percy: Great idea! Follow me!

 * Ophelia: Kana! You're going to put out your back, carrying that chest!
 * Kana: It's worth it. I've got to keep my treasure with me at all times. Wanna see inside?
 * Ophelia: Ooooh! Quite a collection of gemstones you have there! Each one, a miracle of the earth! Born of rocky gestation! Each with an aura of splendid color and rarified quality!
 * Kana: Er, right. But what do you mean, my gems have auras?
 * Ophelia: You know, like halos. Each one of those stones has uniquely radiating energy.
 * Kana: I don't see it. They're not glowing. Maybe if I squint? Anyway, you like gemstones too, huh, Ophelia?
 * Ophelia: Gems speak to the deepest part of me. The mystic me! The eternal me! To you, that looks like a sapphire. And that one? Quartz. But to my eyes, that is an Ultimate Heart of Blueness! The other? That is a Stone of Scintillating Fortuosity! Your whole chest contains such mystical gems.
 * Kana: Wow. I thought they were just pretty. Actually, this is my collection of potential dragonstones. Anything that looks like it might be a dragonstone—plop, into the box! They almost never turn out to be one. It's nice to have a chest of gems though.
 * Ophelia: They may not be dragonstones, but they all possess special qualities. Only I can sense it.
 * Kana: Really? Then would you like to come on my next gem hunt with me?
 * Ophelia: You'll show me where you've found all of these stones?
 * Kana: Of course. As long as you help me see the stones through your eyes!
 * Ophelia: A fair trade of expertise.

 * Kana: Here's the canyon where I find all of my gemstones, Ophelia.
 * Ophelia: Oooh! Look at them, peering out of the rock like bright, little eyes. But I can feel many more underground. Their energies serenade my soul.
 * Kana: I tend to find red gems over there. I think I see one.
 * Ophelia: Ah—a Scarab Bloodberyl!
 * Kana: Blue ones are over there. See 'em?
 * Ophelia: Lovely! Their energy signature is like thunder on the windowpane of my heart! I've never seen the like, but they are surely imbued with spirits.
 * Kana: Hey! There's a new one. It's sort of shaped like... a star?
 * Ophelia: An Imperial Celestialstone? Hmm... maybe. We should take it for sure. Ha ha! I need to do my part to find some stones on my own. I made something to help me locate them—a dowsing rod of sorts.
 * Kana: Neat. Let me see!
 * Ophelia: It's this pendant. You hold it in your hand... and then... watch it swing. Its pendulous motion is influenced by the presence of powerful stones.
 * Kana: No way!
 * Ophelia: The closer you get to a stone—?
 * Kana: The faster it swings? Amazing.
 * Ophelia: Why don't we turn this into a game? You search your way, I'll search with mine.
 * Kana: You're on, Ophelia. Let's start!
 * Ophelia: Ha ha! I've found a bountiful harvest of gemstones.
 * Kana: Wow. That pendant of yours really does the trick.
 * Ophelia: And these stones all positively throb with power. They'll be very useful.
 * Kana: It seems that you've won. But I don't care. I'm just happy you're happy.

 * Kana: Ugh...
 * Ophelia:  Your spirits seem crushed to dust, Kana. Whatever could be wrong?
 * Kana: You know all those gemstones we found? Mama said I could keep only one.
 * Ophelia: One?! A travesty!
 * Kana: My treasure chest broke, and all of my other gems spilled out too. So Mama said I've got to pick just a single stone out of all of them.
 * Ophelia: Well, all is not lost.
 * Kana: What do you mean?
 * Ophelia: Pick your favorite. Then I'll use my magic on all the other ones. I'll draw out their energy, and then imbue your favorite with them. Then you can do your mama's bidding, returning all the stones to nature. Yet you'll still hold the essence of them all in your hand.
 * Kana: That's not the same at all. And it sounds complicated.
 * Ophelia: A hundred gems in one? That's better, Kana! A truly unique gem.
 * Kana: All right. I get it now. What a great idea, Ophelia! How do you think up such great stuff?
 * Ophelia: Scribes could write for a year of notions in my head—and still have years to go. Now, pick your favorite gem.
 * Kana: This one! This one! The star-shaped one we found!
 * Ophelia: A fair choice. Now, prepare to witness magic unparalleled in this world or any other... Oh, earthen deities! Hear my plea! Divest these gems of their eternalness! Swirl their essences into a rainbow blenditude—pour it into this one stone!
 * Kana: Is it working?
 * Ophelia: Oh, wasn't it obvious? Yes. Your stone is now a virtual treasure chest of gems.
 * Kana: It is? Thanks, Ophelia! Is there anything you can't do?

 * Kana: Yay! Let's go!
 * Ophelia: Indeed. Er—Wait. Do you intend for us to venture forth alone?
 * Kana: Yup! We'll be OK, though. I've been practicing a whole lot.
 * Ophelia: Kana, I may be a chosen one, but you are a child! It is too dangerous for you to be patrolling without a larger escort.
 * Kana: I'll be fine! No bad guys can threaten us as long as we have our Special Sibling Powers!
 * Ophelia: Special Sibling Powers...? Oh! Yes! The ability to manipulate the occult forces that bind our blood! A family line cursed with a dark power, forbidden in the realm of mortals... We shall need to work on the name, though. I propose "The Kin-Blot"!
 * Kana: Heehee. Does that mean you're OK with going on patrol?
 * Ophelia: Yes. This patrol will be a trial by fire for you. Your gate to the path of the warrior. Kana, ahead of you stands your destiny! Do you dare seize it?!
 * Kana: Yes, ma'am! But I was actually thinking we could go patrolling every day... Does that mean I'll become a new kind of warrior every day too?
 * Ophelia: E-every day? Are you sure?
 * Kana: Yeah! I mean, patrols need to be done every day anyway. Why not us?
 * Ophelia: O-OK! Fine! Everyday it is then! A chosen one can never show fatigue!

 * Kana: Hi, Soleil! Were you heading into town?
 * Soleil: Oh, sorry, Kana. I actually just got back from town. Did you need me to run an errand for you?
 * Kana: No, it's not that. I was wondering if you might be willing to introduce me to some of the girls in town...
 * Soleil: WH-WHAT?! Wait a second... You really want to chat up some ladies, huh?
 * Kana: Chat up? What does that even mean?
 * Soleil: Oh, sorry. Did I misunderstand you?
 * Kana: Not exactly, I just want to learn how to pay people nice compliments like you do.
 * Soleil: So that's what you think I'm doing? You're so young, Kana...
 * Kana: I know, that's why I need your help! Whenever I see you around, you're always being so friendly to everyone. It seems like people are always happy when they're hanging around with you. How do you do it?
 * Soleil: Ohh, so that's what you're talking about! I never mean to compliment people, but I can't help it when I see a cutie walk by. So it's not quite right to say that I'm just being friendly exactly...
 * Kana: Well I still think it's amazing! Please, teach me how to be like you!
 * Soleil: You're silly, Kana. But we can go to town if you really want to. I'll introduce you to some people, and maybe you'll find someone you like.
 * Kana: Really? You mean it? I can't wait to go! This is going to be so much fun. I can't wait to learn from you.

 * Kana: That was pretty crazy. But, Soleil, you were amazing! You really have a way with words! Like when you said, "You're lovelier than a garden meadow." No one flatters people than you!
 * Soleil: That may be, but the girls all seemed to love you even more! They were all ruffling your hair and pinching your cheeks. And all the compliments... "Look at his baggy cloak. Oh my gods, that is adorable!" "Your haircut is way too cute!" They just couldn't get enough of you. I never thought that your youth would be such a valuable asset. I wish those girls had said nice things about me too.
 * Kana: But the thing is, I didn't really do anything all that special. I just wish that I could be more like you. You have such a great way with words.
 * Soleil: If you're complimenting someone, it's important to be really honest. Otherwise, why bother doing it in the first place? You're really growing up fast, Kana.
 * Kana: Hm, I don't know...
 * Soleil: I'm impressed. You're a natural with the ladies. I mean it! The only reason they were flattering you is because they thought you were so cute. Believe in yourself!
 * Kana: Thanks, Soleil. I'll try! Say, can I join you again when you go back into town?

 * Soleil: Duh! Cuties always make me happy! By the way, I think you've gotten way better at talking to girls, Kana. I'm impressed.
 * Kana: Thanks! I've been trying to be really friendly with the people we've met. It's kind of hard to make conversation sometimes though. I guess I'll just have to keep practicing!
 * Soleil: You're doing just fine. Just be true to yourself. Girls love that kind of thing. Words are great and all, but your actions are always more telling!
 * Kana: Hm, I'd never really thought about that.
 * Soleil: Then there's all kinds of other stuff. Your facial expression, tone of voice...Even your body language can be important. Just use everything you have to show how interested you are in someone!

It doesn't matter if you're caring for a sick friend or charging into battle. I just think you're really special person. So I just wanted to let you know and to say thanks for everything. Hanging out in town with you has been so much fun.

 * Nina: Well, see...the thing is...
 * Kana: I'm sorry! You don't have to answer if you don't want to.
 * Nina: No, no, it's OK. You're right—stealing is wrong. But the world is a complex place. Some things are less wrong than others. Sometimes just doing things that look right will make the world worse. You know?
 * Kana: Um...I guess so...
 * Nina: In this world, doing the right thing doesn't always mean you'll be rewarded. In an imperfect world like this, you have to make imperfect decisions. Sometimes stealing is the best way you can help people.
 * Kana: OK, I think I understand. So...being a noble thief is the best way to help people?
 * Nina: Well, not always, and not for everyone. Different people have different talents. Stealing, however, is mine! And I DO think I've helped lots of people with it. Many more than I might have otherwise.
 * Kana: Hmm. So when you help people, do they give you stuff?
 * Nina: Sorta! But maybe I'll tell you about that stuff some other time. For now, I've got to go. I think I just spotted a blacksmith and his apprentice! Later!

 * Nina: Ah. That was from a man who'd been forced to leave his family by his employer. There was no other work around, and he didn't have the money to move them. So I nicked a few trinkets off a corrupt duke to set them up with a new home!
 * Kana: They couldn't live together...because of money?
 * Nina: Yes. And we both know how painful it is to be separated from your family, right? They didn't have any other way to fix it or make it better, either. He would have died before he saved up enough money. And that's why noble thieves like myself exist. To right these wrongs.
 * Kana: Oh, OK. I think I got it now!
 * Nina: But, I don't want you misunderstanding, Kana. It's still stealing. It's still wrong. It's just that sometimes doing nothing is more wrong. You know?

 * Nina: Aww. Thanks, Kana! I wish everyone felt that way... I know my father certainly doesn't...
 * Kana: Huh?
 * Nina: He doesn't approve of me, Even though he was a thief himself, once. Ever since I was little. he's been telling me I should never steal, no matter what. I know why he does...but what he says and what he does are two different things. I couldn't have respect for someone like that. We...fought over it. A lot.

 * Kana: I dunno...
 * Nina: Huh?
 * Kana: I mean, I know you don't see eye to eye with him. But I'm not sure you disliked him as much as you think you did. And you might even have more in common than you think!
 * Nina: Wh-what do you mean?
 * Kana: You said before you became a noble thief 'cause that's where your talents lay. But it's not like you were born a thief. You probably became one to be like your dad! I think, deep down, you really do respect him a lot, and you want his approval. Which is why you argue so much over your noble thief stuff! After all, if you really didn't care, you wouldn't argue, right?
 * Nina: Kana... You're very perceptive for a kid your age you know that? *sigh* But when you're right, you're right. Thanks, Kana. You've given me a lot to think about. I'm not sure how easy it'll be to repair our relationship... But you've shown me that the seeds are already there. Thank you.
