 * Hinata: HYA! HA!
 * Avatar: Hello, Hinata.
 * Hinata: Huh? Oh, Lady Avatar!
 * Avatar: You seem to be concentrating hard on your training today. I couldn't help but stop and watch.
 * Hinata: Thanks for the praise, Lady Avatar!
 * Avatar: I am a little surprised though. I didn't really expect to find you training so intently.
 * Hinata: What do you mean?
 * Avatar: Just that... I'd heard a rumor you were more a fan of relaxing than training... So I admit I may have been biased...
 * Hinata: Ahaha... I see... I wonder who's spreading rumors about me... I'll just have to work my butt off to prove this rumormonger wrong!
 * Avatar: Work your butt off? Hopefully not literally... Anyway, is there a reason why you're training so hard?
 * Hinata: Um... Nope... No...reason... None at all.
 * Avatar: Hinata, you could not possibly have said that any less convincingly. You couldn't even make eye contact.
 * Hinata: There isn't! Really! Honest! Oh! Say, since you're here, why don't we have a sparring match? What do ya think?
 * Avatar: I accept your challenge!
 * Hinata: Hehe! That's the spirit! Go get your sword and come back here. First one to get a clean hit wins!
 * Avatar: I look forward to it!

 * Avatar: *pant* Almost there... Just... five more laps!
 * Hinata: Lady Avatar... Why are you running circles around the practice grounds?
 * Avatar: Hi, Hinata! After I lost to you, I decided I needed to work on my fitness.
 * Hinata: Oh! You mean our match the other day? I wiped the floor with you!
 * Avatar: Yes you did. I think there are a lot of reasons why, so I decided to address them. For starters, I'm going to improve my stamina by running laps!
 * Hinata: Ah, I see. So you're actually a pretty hard worker, too. I'm a little surprised.
 * Avatar: Really? Why?
 * Hinata: I'd heard that you spent most of your time in your chambers, when you were in Nohr. I guess I didn't think running would appeal to you, is all. But you were pretty agile in our match, and now you're running laps... Kinda funny how different you are than I first thought.
 * Avatar: Heehee. I'm glad you got a chance to see a different side of me.
 * Hinata: Me too! Can I join you for a few laps? Watching you has put me in a running mood, too!
 * Avatar: Oh! Certainly! I don't mind at all.
 * Hinata: Great! Let's race to see who's faster! Ready, set, go!

 * Avatar: Huh? Just a...! Wait! Hinata!!

 * Avatar: Ya! Ha! Take...that!
 * Hinata: Huh! You're getting better! I can feel the strength behind hyour attacks! So...take this! HAA!
 * Avatar: Gah! Ha! That won't work this time! HAA!
 * Hinata: What the-?! Waaaah!
 * Avatar: Did...did I just land a clean hit?
 * Hinata: ...Yeah. You finally got me.
 * Avatar: Heehee. That's awesome!
 * Hinata: Haha... Guess this means we got some talking to do.
 * Avatar: Oh? Are you actually going to tell me why you're training so hard, then?
 * Hinata: The reason is...I'm working toward a goal.
 * Avatar: A goal?
 * Hinata: Yeah. It's Lord Takumi.
 * Avatar: My brother? What about him?
 * Hinata: See, I come from a long line of warriors who have served Hoshido. Even before I learned to walk, I learned to use a katana. I learned quick, too. I thought that being Lord Takumi's retainer would be easy, too, but...
 * Avatar: But what?
 * Hinata: One day, he challenged me to a match. The rules were the same as ours. He even selected the katana as our weapon, so we'd be on equal terms. He absolutely destroyed me.
 * Avatar: You lost that badly?
 * Hinata: My head was spinning, he beat me so fast. Everybody knows Lord Takumi is skilled with a bow, but he's just as good with a katana. I was so mad at myself for losing and for underestimating him. I was a big hit to my pride-how can I protect him, if he can beat me? What was I even doing there? So I swore I would become as strong as him. That's what drives me to train.
 * Avatar: Thanks for sharing your story, Hinata.
 * Hinata: Someday, I'll be stronger than him, and I'll prove to everyone that I can protect him. Him and everyone else in Hoshido!
 * Avatar: I'll be cheering you on, Hinata!
 * Hinata: Heehee, thanks. Coming from you, that gives me a lot of confidence in my work. I hope you'll continue to practice with me.
 * Avatar: Of course!

 * Hinata: Hmm...
 * Avatar: Ah, there you are, Hinata!
 * Hinata: Gah!! Lady Avatar?!
 * Avatar: I'm sorry Hinata! Is something wrong?
 * Hinata: Oh no, nothing's wrong. I just didn't expect you to appear like that!
 * Avatar: Oh, I see. You looked pretty stressed out about something, though... I'm more than happy to listen, if you want to talk about things.
 * Hinata: Oh, well if you're open to it, then... You see, I realized something recently!
 * Avatar: Oh? What was it you realized?
 * Hinata: Well, you're a princess, aren't you?
 * Avatar: I suppose I am, yes. Why do you ask?
 * Hinata: See, I knew it! I knew it and I completely forgot! How can I be so dumb? You'd think there would be a limit to how stupid one person could be...
 * Avatar: I...um... Sorry, Hinata. I don't understand what exactly is going on.
 * Hinata: We've been working hard in order to become stronger, but... It's supposed to be my duty to protect you. What if I'd accidentally hurt you when we were training?!
 * Avatar: That's just a risk of training, though... I don't think we'd ever actually be able to seriously injure each other, in any case.
 * Hinata: I know I'd never be able to hurt you! I mean, I might be able to actually defeat you in combat, but I really mean... Damn, this is not coming out right at all! Lady Avatar, I want to be the one to protect you from danger!
 * Avatar: That's very kind of you, Hinata. I'd say yes, but I'm sure Takumi would like to keep you as a retainer...
 * Hinata: I already asked him, actually! I knew he could appreciate the pairing of the strong samurai and the lovely princess. After all, how could he say no when I told him I simply had to defend my beloved!
 * Avatar: Oh, Hinata, that... Hang on, what did you just say?
 * Hinata: Hrm? I said that I have to defend my beloved!
 * Avatar: Ahah! I didn't mishear you! You're calling me your beloved?
 * Hinata: Of course! I want to be the man by your side, protecting you from everything!
 * Avatar: And you say "the man" because...
 * Hinata: Because I'm in love with you, Lady Avatar!
 * Avatar: Ahhh!! I-I don't know what to say!
 * Hinata: Your face has turned really red, Lady Avatar... I'm not sure how to take that! Do your flushed cheeks mean I have a chance, or...
 * Avatar: They... might.
 * Hinata: Huh? What was that? I couldn't hear you. Could you say it again?
 * Avatar: No! You can figure it out yourself! Even you said there must be limits to how stupid one person can be!
 * (Avatar leaves)
 * Hinata: W-wait! Don't go!
 * Hinata: Please don't ever go away! I really love you, you know? I will make sure to keep you safe! My one and only princess!

 * Hinata: Hey, Lady Azura! Perfect timing! ...Here! Catch this!
 * Azura: Hello, Hinata. You know I'm not very good at catch. ...Oh, my! Whoa! Hmm. I'm confused. Did you really just toss a bag of vegetables at me?
 * Hinata: You got it! I picked up these bamboo shoots at the market.
 * Azura: I'm not sure why you're giving them to me, but I'll pass them on to the cook. Haven't we been eating these same veggies for weeks? Why would you buy more?
 * Hinata: Uh, they were having a sale. A really good sale! ...OK. Fine. The girl at the market was a super salesperson. She sold me on them.
 * Azura: I see. Apparently she was super cute too.
 * Hinata: Wow. How did you know? Lady Azura, can you read minds?
 * Azura: Goodness, no! It's written all over your face. At least they look fresh.
 * Hinata: Come on, Azura. I couldn't help it. If some hot chick tells you, "Please, sir, buy these veggies or my family will starve..." What are you gonna do? You buy the bamboo shoots, right?
 * Azura: I suppose if your wallet's full and your head's empty, that's exactly what you do.
 * Hinata: Aww, man! You're one tough cookie, Azura. Well, I'll see ya around...
 * (Hinata leaves)
 * Azura: Sometimes I worry about him.

 * Ruffian: Heh. Who knew discovering their secret hideout would be this easy?!
 * Hinata: Hey! You! What are you doing here?! You don't belong here!
 * Azura: Hinata, is something wrong? I thought I heard yeling. ...Oh! I know this girl.
 * Hinata: Yeah, She's the girl from the market! But why is she wearing a disguise?!
 * Azura: I remember you from Nohr. Your parents were nobles! Why are you spying on us?
 * Ruffian: Hmph! You'd never understand! I bet you've never had a hard day in your life!
 * Azura: Well, you're wrong about that. Did something happen to your parents? Are they all right? Let us help you. There's no need to spy on us!
 * Ruffian: Why would you help me? Did you forget how cruel I was to you back then?!
 * Azura: Of course not! But I won't hold it against you if your family is in trouble!
 * Ruffian: I would never accept help from you. I should've killed you when I had the chance.
 * Hinata: Whoa! Now you've gone too far! You're on our turf now. Besides, did you forget? I did you a favor yesterday!
 * Ruffian: By buying vegetables? Ha! You were such an easy mark! You led me directly to your hideout! Now, if you'll excuse me, I've got intel to report!
 * (Ruffian leaves)
 * Hinata: No! Wait! Get back here!
 * Azura: Hinata, let her go. It's too late. By now, she's already told them where we are.
 * Hinata: I can't believe I fell for her act! How stupid of me! I'm so sorry. I'm an idiot!
 * Azura: Don't be so hard on yourself. If you'll excuse me, I'll think of something...
 * (Azura leaves)
 * Hinata: Wait! Lady Azura? Where are you going?!

A Support

 * Azura: Hello, Hinata. What are you carrying there?
 * Hinata: This? It's a present! This time, I'll even hand it to you instead of tossing it.
 * Azura: How chivalrous of you! ...Are these bamboo shoots?! Didn't you learn your lesson?
 * Hinata: Of course I did! I bought these at a store from a hairy, old man. It wasn't a trap! You've looked so miserable since that incident with the girl. I thought you could use some antioxidants. Bamboo shoots are pretty good for that.
 * Azura: They're harvested up in the mountains of Hoshido, aren't they? No one has ever given me vegetables as a gift before, but thank you, Hinata.
 * Hinata: Aww. There's that cute smile I've been missing. This might be too personal to ask, but did that girl bully you when you were a kid?
 * Azura: Yes. I thought those memories were buried in the past. I feel bad for her situation now.
 * Hinata: But that's crazy! She deserves whatever she gets!
 * Azura: I'm not so sure about that. We should aim for peace... always.
 * Hinata: That is a noble thought, but I don't think we can ever really forget what's happened. You can't dwell on it, but you can't erase it from your memory either.
 * Azura: Hinata, that sounds very profound.
 * Hinata: Thanks! That was the best I could do on short notice.
 * Azura: Haha! You always know how to cheer me up, don't you?
 * Hinata: Well, I try! Now eat some of these veggies and you'll be in tip-top shape in no time!
 * Azura: Thanks, Hinata. I will.

 * Felecia: *sigh*
 * Hinata: That was some sigh, Felicia. What's the matter?
 * Felecia: Ah, hello, Hinata. I was just washing some clothes, and I accidentally spilled dye on them. So I'm feelings a little bad about how incredibly clumsy I am.
 * Hinata: Don't let it worry you! Everyone makes mistakes now and then.
 * Felecia: I know, but if you failed as often as I do, you'd be sighing, too.
 * Hinata: Hmmm. Well, let's go do something to cheer you up!
 * Felecia: What do you have in mid? Remember that I'm clumsy...
 * Hinata: Well, I like to take practice swings with my sword. It feels good to just focus on form. Something like that, maybe?
 * Felecia: Ahhh, I see. So I should pick something I'm already good at, then...
 * Hinata: Yes, exactly! Maybe some talent you're naturally inclined toward.
 * Felecia: Let me see... Oh! I can create a kind of chilling aura. It's cold enough to make icicles!
 * Hinata: Whoa, that's amazing! I've never heard of anyone who can do that.
 * Felecia: Heehee. Wow, just seeing your reaction improved my mood a bit.
 * Hinata: Awesome! Just remember my reaction whenever you're making ice, I bet it helps!
 * Felecia: Yes! I'll do just that!

B Support
Why, hello, Hinata!* Felicia: 
 * Hinata: Ooh, brrrrrrr! Why is it so cold all of a sudden?
 * Hinata: Felicia?! Don't tell me this chill is your doing.
 * Felicia: It is! You said I should try making icicles when I'm feeling down, remember? I decided to give it a shot after a mistake I made earlier, and it's working!
 * Hinata: I see...
 * Felicia: But look! I thought of something else to do to distract me!
 * Hinata: Your shaving off pieces of that ice mound?
 * Felicia: Yeah. I thought I could maybe make something out of the ice...
 * Hinata: Ooooh, that's really neat! It looks like it's starting to take shape. You did this all by carving? It's beautiful! I've never seen anything like it.
 * Felicia: R-really? I'm flattered...
 * Hinata: Of course! Is that one a dog? it looks like one...
 * Felicia: Hmph, no... It's a cat.
 * Hinata: Oh, really? Well, what about this? It's a bear, isn't it?
 * Felicia: Exactly! That's my most recent one; I actually just finished it.
 * Hinata: Ahh, now I can see your progression. You keep getting better and better as you go.
 * Felicia: Would you like yo try? There's plenty of ice.
 * Hinata: Can I? That'd be awesome!
 * Felicia: Of course! Here, you can use these icicles over here.
 * Hinata: Thanks! I should warn you though—I'm pretty competitive. I'm gonna try and carve a sculpture that rivals yours!
 * Felicia: In that case, consider us in a competition to make the best one!

 * Hinata: Hello-ooo! Anybody home?
 * Takumi: What's with all the racket?! Hinata? Is that you?
 * Hinata: Lord Takumi, show yourself!
 * Takumi: *sigh* That's Hinata, all right. Is that any way to address your superiors? "Show yourself"? Seriously?!
 * Hinata: Sorry. I was just practicing.
 * Takumi: It sounded like you were trying to pick a fight!
 * Hinata: Exactly! ...But not with you, of course! I thought it was time we issued a challenge.
 * Takumi: Huh?
 * Hinata: Do you remember when we were in that fighting competition together?
 * Takumi: Is that what this is about? You forgot the part where you fought and I watched. As a member of the royal family, I wasn't allowed to participate.
 * Hinata: Oh, yeah. Fighting contests were too uncivilized, right? Well, anyway... Remember how I threw down that challenge and beat the snot out of EVERYONE?
 * Takumi: Shh! Can you keep your voice down? You're my retainer! You can't talk like that!
 * Hinata: Yes, sir! Sorry, milord. *ahem* Well, I was thinking we should round up our best fighters and hold another contest. With the war going on, we can't afford to get sloppy! We've gotta stay sharp! We used to take our best swordsmen and have them fight their way up the ranks. I think it's time we do it again!
 * Takumi: Well, that is an interesting suggestion, but...
 * Hinata: It's gonna be awesome! Last time, I came out on top, and I'm planning on a repeat! You better get ready, because Hinata is going to BRING IT! ...Well, see ya!
 * (Hinata leaves)
 * Takumi: Whoa! Wait a minute! We haven't decided anything yet! Come back here, you idiot!

 * Hinata: Phew! That was easy! I demolished them! That'll teach them to show up on my turf!
 * Takumi: Your turf? Sheesh, Hinata! I thought we were holding a practice competition.
 * Hinata: Yeah! But we gotta keep it interesting, right?
 * Takumi: *sigh* I don't know how I let you talk me into this.
 * Hinata: Hmm. You look upset. I thought you'd be pleased. I smashed everyone to bits!
 * Takumi: Hinata, you told me this was a practice competition to help train our fighters. But you obviously had something to prove. This was clearly for your own amusement!
 * Hinata: What?! No! (Hmm... I see. Lord Takumi isn't ready for the fighting to be over yet. No problem!)
 * Takumi: What are you muttering about?
 * Hinata: Nothing! Well, gotta get ready for round two! That was just the beginning! See ya!

 * Hinata: Hey, Lord Takumi! Are you ready for the next round of the Hinata Showdown?
 * Takumi: I'm sorry, but I can't make it this time. I've got a lot of stuff on my plate right now.
 * Hinata: Really?! That's a bummer! I guess I'll have to call the whole thing off.
 * Takumi: What?! You can't cancel it!
 * Hinata: Look, Lord Takumi, I'm only doing this for you! There's no point in knocking the stuffing out of everyone if you can't see it!
 * Takumi: What do you mean?! You're doing this for me?
 * Hinata: Lately, they've got you running around in circles—all wound up! I thought you could use a little break!
 * Takumi: So you set up this whole fighting contest for my entertainment?
 * Hinata: Yeah. I remembered how happy you looked while you were cheering me on last time. I gave it all I had so I could make you proud! Since you couldn't fight, I figured the next best thing was watching me win!
 * Takumi: Wow, Hinata. That's surprisingly thoughtful of you.
 * Hinata: See? I knew it! You loved watching me give those guys a spanking!
 * Takumi: Well... *ahem* Hinata, things are different now. I have responsibilities... Aww! Who am I kidding?! You know I love watching you slice and dice out there.
 * Hinata: I'm pretty entertaining, right?
 * Takumi: Watching you fight the other day was awesome. It took my mind off the war!
 * Hinata: Sweet! Wait till you hear about my plans for round two of the Hinata Showdown!
 * Takumi: I'm looking forward to it—and I want to see your best effort, Hinata.
 * Hinata: You got it!

 * Sakura: *sigh* I'm so relieved we made it out of there alive!
 * Hinata: Lady Sakura, you looked a little green out there on the battlefield. You doing OK?
 * Sakura: Yeah, I'm fine... I just got a little scared, that's all...
 * Hinata: You can't let the enemy see you sweat! They always go after the weak link!
 * Sakura: Really? I... I didn't know that! What should I do?
 * Hinata: Hmm... Maybe some extra training would help? A soldier should always be prepared!
 * Sakura: Extra t-training...?
 * Hinata: If you want, I'll take you through some exercises, myself! I'd do anything for a cutie like you, Ladie Sakura. I'll be right back...
 * Sakura: Training with Hinata? Why does this make me nervous?

B Support

 * Hinata: All right! Let's start your training. No one's going to call you weak again... Not while I'm here!
 * Sakura: O-OK, if you say so...
 * Hinata: First, let's fix your posture! Straighten your back, and puff out your chest!
 * Sakura: O-OK... Like this?
 * Hinata: That's great! Just like that! Noe, let's hear your battle cry! Say something loud and... offensive!
 * Sakura: What?! I couldn't possibly do that...!
 * Hinata: Did you just say, "couldn't possibly"...? Come on! You're better than that!
 * Sakura: O-OK. Uh-uhhm... Th-there's NO way I could do that!
 * Hinata: That was so cute! Not exactly the effect we were going for, but still...
 * Sakura: D-do you think I did OK? No, wait... I mean... I was awesome! Wasn't I, punk?
 * Hinata: Haha! Maybe I've pushed you too far.
 * Sakura: *sniff* Fine, then. What do I have to do to saound tough?
 * Hinata: Ack! Don't cry, please! I'm sorry! It was fine... It was good!
 * Sakura: Hinata, I'm hopeless, aren't I?
 * Hinata: I think I'm taking the wrong approach. Don't worry. I'll come up with something!
 * Sakura: Ok...

 * Hinata: After all the guff I gave you, here I am, the one getting hurt in battle...
 * Sakura: That's OK, Hinata. I'm just glad it's not serious.
 * Hinata: *sigh* I guess I was the weak link this time...
 * Sakura: Th-that's not true! When we got out here, I froze up and forgot all my training!
 * Hinata: That's not what I saw. You fought bravely to heal and protect our comrades. Strength isn't just cutting down enemies. You also need strength of heart.
 * Sakura: I wasn't brave... just desperate. That's all. Hinata, do you think I'm helping, or am I just getting in the way?
 * Hinata: Nonsense! We need you out there! When you're with us, we all fight more bravely!
 * Sakura: Thank you, Hinata! That's kind of you to say.

 * Sakura: Hinata—hello!
 * Hinata: Ah, Lady Sakura. I hoped to find you today. There's something I wanted to tell you...
 * Sakura: What's that?
 * Hinata: *ahem* I've learned a lot about you recently. And... the truth is... I'm falling in love with the person I'm getting to know...
 * Sakura: Huh...?
 * Hinata: I know that I shouldn't feel this way about a royal princess. But it's not fair to keep things from you. I love you, Lady Sakura... That is all.
 * Sakura: Hinata... wait! You don't have to leave so soon. I l-love you, too.
 * Hinata: Um... but... yo mean as a friend, right? You don't mean as... a man?
 * Sakura: At first I thought of you as an older brother who was trying to look after me... But it's different now. I'm falling for you too...
 * Hinata: I...I was sure you were going to turn me down!
 * Sakura: No! I would never reject you. I want to be with you forever.
 * Hinata: You really mean that?
 * Sakura: Yes, Hinata! I want you by my side.
 * Hinata: You have no idea how happy that makes me! I promise to stay by your side always.
 * Sakura: That's all I ask from the man I love. You have my heart forever... and forever after that.

 * Kagero: Hmmm... I really like this view.
 * Hinata: Is that Kagero over there? Hey, Kagero! Is something wrong?
 * Kagero: Hinata! What are you doing out here?
 * Hinata: I was just out wandering around... You're acting very unusual. A little suspicious, even.
 * Kagero: I am not.
 * Hinata: You definitely are! You aren't looking me in the eye, for one thing...
 * Kagero: ...
 * Hinata: And now you're going all silent on me! It's fine if you don't want to talk... But if something is wrong, you should know that you can talk to me about it.
 * Kagero: What's on my mind has nothing to do with you; don't worry. Why are you so persistent in asking?
 * Hinata: Well, it's only natural for friends to want to help each other out. Besides, how can a guy not want to help a lovely lady like yourself?!
 * Kagero: Are you mocking me?!
 * Hinata: No! No, it was a compliment! I was just trying to compliment you! Anyway, what're ya worrying about? Tell me! I promise to help however I can!
 * Kagero: I'm sorry, but I must decline. I will see you later, Hinata.

 * Hinata: Oh, there she is! Kagero! Kageroooooooo!
 * Kagero: *sigh* Hello, Hinata.
 * Hinata: Awww, don't look at me like that! I just wanted to apologize for being so pushy. Although, I am still a little worried about you...
 * Kagero: I accept your apology, but there is still no reason for you to be concerned. My issues are mine alo—
 * Hinata: Hey, you're hiding something behind your back, aren't you! Is that a notebook?
 * Kagero: What? No, I'm not hiding anything. Go away.
 * Hinata: Now that I think about you, you were hiding something behind your back the other day.
 * Kagero: There is no chance you'll let this go, is there?
 * Hinata: None at all!
 * Kagero: Well... I suppose I may as well tell you. I was drawing.
 * Hinata: You draw? I had no idea!
 * Kagero: It's one of a few hobbies I have. When you showed up the other day, I was considering drawing the view from that hill. Is it surprising that I would spend my time drawing?
 * Hinata: Not at all, actually. It sounds like something you'd be interested in. I don't see why you felt the need to hide it, though. Hey, is this one of yours? It looks like it fell out of—Holy...
 * Kagero: This is a picture of a river I saw a few days ago.
 * Hinata: I... um... huh. This is supposed to be a river? I suppose I can see it, but... Why is it so red? And these whirlpools look incredibly ominous. The whole image feels like it's... pulsing. How strange.
 * Kagero: My art tends to invoke peculiar reactions from people. It appears very tough to understand. That's why I tend to keep it to myself whenever possible.
 * Hinata: It really is... something else. Ya know, looking at it more, I can see and odd appeal to it. If you have more pictures... I'd be interested in seeing them.
 * Kagero: I... don't think so. I really do not like sharing my art with other people. All of my art is like this. Isn't seeing just this picture enough?
 * Hinata: Not in the least! I'd really like to see more! Your drawing are... cool.
 * Kagero: I appreciate your intent, but I have no need for false flattery.
 * Hinata: What? It wasn't false—
 * Kagero: No matter—I have no intention of showing you any more of my art.
 * Hinata: Hey! Kagero, wait!

 * Hinata: Excuse me, Kagero. Have you got a minute?
 * Kagero: How can I help? Unless it's about my art. That conversation is over.
 * Hinata: But you misunderstood me the other day! I genuinely think your art is nice!
 * Kagero: You're committed to your flattery...
 * Hinata: Those creepy whirlpools were awesome. I've never seen someone draw like you! It's very... What's the word... Abstract! It's abstract art!
 * Kagero: I did not intend for it to be abstract. It is supposed to be a scenic view of a peaceful river.
 * Hinata: Oh. Um. Of course. Sorry. Still, I'm telling the truth when I tell you that I like it. I'm not trying to trick you or anything. I really would like to see more!
 * Kagero: I suppose you've insisted enough that I can believe you. I apologize for how rude I was to you before. I'm not used to compliments. Growing up, only Orochi was accepting of my art, so I tend to doubt others. Even after a few people have said they like what they see, I still don't believe it.
 * Hinata: It's just my opinion, but I bet more people would enjoy your work than you think. You should have more confidence!
 * Kagero: That's very kind of you to say. I suspect I have misjudged you, Hinata. I had thought that you lacked refinement... I can see now that I was incorrect.
 * Hinata: It took you this long to figure it out? And here I was pulling out all the stops to praise you!
 * Kagero: Heh... My apologies, Hinata. I appreciate the nice things you've said about my art.
 * Hinata: See, now there's a cute smile! You should break out that smile more often!
 * Kagero: And I withdraw my apology.
 * Hinata: Wait, what? Why?! Am I only allowed to praise your art? I can't tell what I should be doing...
 * Kagero: I'd appreciate you limiting your opinions to my art, if you could. Although, I do feel like we have bonded over this little ordeal.
 * Hinata: Me too! Does this mean that you'll finally show me some of your other work?
 * Kagero: Yes, I suppose I could show you one or two other pieces.

 * Kagero: Hello, Hinata. I've finished another picture that I'd like to share with you.
 * Hinata: Oh really? Awesome! This one is really intense. It looks like a battle is being fought... But everyone on the ground is unharmed, while the dead and wounded are fighting. So cool. Your work really stirs the imagination.
 * Kagero: Thank you. I'm not sure if it's because of all the things you've been saying, but... I've really been motivated lately to do a lot more drawing. Though, I must say, I keep thinking about something you said a while back.
 * Hinata: Oh? What was it I said?
 * Kagero: You said repeatedly that you liked my art because you wanted to help. But I don't understand why you would sometimes compliment my appearance.
 * Hinata: Oh! I'm sorry if I offended you. In the end we were able to become good friends, so it didn't make you too angry?
 * Kagero: Actually, Hinata, I kind of enjoyed it. I didn't realize it then, but I appreciated it.
 * Hinata: Really? That's good to hear! After all, I've found that I love who you are as much as what you do.
 * Kagero: Hold on—did you say love?
 * Hinata: I did! When I first saw you, I thought right away that you were very pretty. But we got to talking, and I learned so much more about you... And I just knew that you were the kind of person I'd like in my life. I guess what I'm saying is... Would you like to be with me, Kagero?
 * Kagero: ...
 * Hinata: I... am not sure how to take your silence. Are you way out of my league?
 * Kagero: No, no. You've made me very happy. I'm just having trouble finding words... I've learned how kind you are over time, as we talked about art and other things. I'd very much like to be with you. I think we'd make a good team.
 * Hinata: Whoa, you said yes? You said yes! Am I dreaming?
 * Kagero: Is it really that surprising?
 * Hinata: It is! Of course it is! I thought I was going way out on a limb, telling you how I felt. I actually didn't prepare myself for you feeling the same as I do. All right, Kagero! I promise to make you the happiest girl in the world!
 * Kagero: We'll work together to make each other happy. There's no way we'll fail.

 * Hinata: Ahhh ow-ow-ow. That was really clumsy of me…
 * Setsuna: Hello, Hinata…
 * Hinata: Ah! Setsuna?! You snuck up on me!
 * Setsuna: What happened to your arm?
 * Hinata: Oh, I was just working on a difficult parry pose and accidentally nicked myself.
 * Hinata: It’s no big deal, though. I’ve got all kinds of small cuts from practicing. I’ll be fine!
 * Setsuna: You get hurt like this often? That seems painful…
 * Hinata: Hm? I suppose it is, yeah. But that’s just how life is, you know?
 * Setsuna: Yes… I also get hurt sometimes.
 * Hinata: You do? Is it from practicing too hard?
 * Setsuna: Oh no… It’s from all the traps I get caught in.
 * Hinata: Now I remember! You’re always getting stuck in traps. Even ones your allies place.
 * Hinata: So that’s how you get hurt, then?
 * Setsuna: Exactly… So lately I’ve been stocking up on salves, just in case.
 * Setsuna: I’d be happy to share…
 * Hinata: Thanks, Setsuna! I could use a good salve.
 * Setsuna: Good…
 * Setsuna: If you’d like, I could bring you some other salves, too.
 * Hinata: Other salves? What do you mean?
 * Setsuna: When I was at the shop the other day, I bought a ton of extras.
 * Setsuna: I’d happily share them with you, if you think you need them…

 * Hinata: The extra ones you got from the shop? Excellent! Let me see what you’ve got…
 * Setsuna: Ta-da…
 * Hinata: Whoa! You weren’t kidding when you said you bought a ton!
 * Hinata: What’d you go, clean them out?
 * Setsuna: Each time I picked one of the salves up, I could think of reasons to have it…
 * Setsuna: Eventually I had a little of everything.
 * Hinata: Ooo, this one looks interesting. What’s it used for?
 * Setsuna: That one is in case you bite the inside of your mouth. It tastes really sweet…
 * Hinata: It even has a candy look to it!
 * Hinata: Ick, what’s that smell? Is that coming from this puke-green bottle?
 * Setsuna: That’s a cure-all There really isn’t anything it can’t fix, I think…
 * Setsuna: But you’re right; it really is stinky…
 * Hinata: Now that’s one I don’t look forward to drinking…
 * Hinata: I didn’t realize there were this many salves in the world, Setsuna!
 * Hinata: Do you know what all of them do?
 * Setsuna: I suppose so… I never really thought about it. I just have fun collecting them.
 * Hinata: If you collect them all, you’re gonna have to start making your own, instead!
 * Hinata: Just kidding; that’d be really tough…
 * Setsuna: Actually… I think I’d like to do that.
 * Setsuna: Making my own salves could be really fun. I Could make special salves for people…
 * Hinata: Wait, really? Do you think you could do that, Setsuna?
 * Setsuna: I think so… I’ll start by making one just for you, Hinata. It’ll be so great.
 * Hinata: Setsuna, you know I was joking, right?

 * Setsuna: Exactly. It’s all ready for you. I even made some for myself, since it works so well…
 * Hinata: Really? THat’s fantastic! What all does this salve do?
 * Setsuna: Well, I get caught in traps a lot, so it will first help reduce bruising…
 * Hinata: Oooh, it smells really refreshing. Just the aroma is making me feel relaxed…
 * Setsuna: I thought it was important for the salve to not smell like death…
 * Setsuna: Anyway, wounds often get infected, so I added some herbs to fight that, too.
 * Hinata: Oh wow! You did a lot better than I thought you would, Setsuna!
 * Hinata: I’m really impressed.
 * Setsuna: I am, too. I thought for sure that I’d have a ton of trouble with making these…
 * Hinata: Making salves must just come naturally to you.
 * Hinata: I take it you’ve already tested this on yourself after falling into a trap?
 * Setsuna: Yes. That’s why it took so long for me to bring it to you—I was in the trap for two days.
 * Setsuna: But I had yours with me, so I know no one messed with it…
 * Setsuna: Here you go…
 * Hinata: Thanks! I—
 * Hinata: Ugghhhh! What is this? It’s all mushy! And it reeks!
 * Hinata: Why is mine completely unlike yours?!
 * Setsuna: I’m glad you appreciate how unique it is…
 * Hinata: I don’t! That wasn’t a compliment!
 * Hinata: By the gods, is it MOVING?! Why is my salve moving?!
 * Setsuna: Who knows… Science is such a mystery.
 * Hinata: But… But you made this! How can you say “who knows” about your own creation?
 * Hinata: What exactly is in this?
 * Setsuna: Some bugs from up in the mountains… A few reptiles…
 * Setsuna: Hmmm… What else…
 * Hinata: This is so gross. I’m sorry, Setsuna, but I don’t think this will work for me…
 * Setsuna: Aw, really? I’m sorry to hear that…
 * Hinata: I really do appreciate the thought, but it’s just a bit too much for me…
 * Hinata: I’d be happy if you shared your salves again, sometime. Just…

 * Hinata: Hmm... It's getting in my eyes...
 * Oboro: Hinata? Why are you tugging on your bangs like that?
 * Hinata: Oh, hey there, Oboro. My hair's getting long, so I was thinking of cutting it.
 * Oboro: What, by yourself? But you're so careless with everything! It'll end up a mess.
 * Hinata: What are you talking about? I can cut my own hair! How much harder can it be than cutting down enemies?
 * Oboro: ...Seriously? Look, just hand over the scissors, and I'll cut it for you.
 * Hinata: Really?
 * Oboro: Sure. I have some free time to do a friend a favor. Plus, if you go around with and awful haircut, it'll reflect badly on Lord Takumi. So I don't mind at all.
 * Hinata: Gosh, thanks, Oboro! Oooh, if you can, you should give me a cool haircut like Lord Takumi's!
 * Oboro: Are you nuts? You can't be as cool as Lord Takumi just by changing your hairdo.
 * Hinata: Aw,man... but I've been serving Lord Takumi for a while now. None of his coolness has rubbed off?
 * Oboro: It doesn't work like that. Besides, I've been serving him WAY longer. If it rubbed off on anyone, it's me.
 * Hinata: No way! If you think I'm not the most loyal to Lord Takumi, think again!
 * Oboro: Please. You're second or third most loyal at BEST. Now hush up. Remember who's holding the scissors here. Or do you want a bowl cut?

 * Oboro: WHAT? Don't be ridiculous! Keep your hands off my hair!
 * Hinata: No, it'll be fine! If it's not my own hair, I can see what I'm doing.
 * Oboro: That's not the problem! A woman's hair takes a special touch. Not some happy-go-lucky oaf's!
 * Hinata: Why-why not? I was gonna make you look cooler...
 * Oboro: What exactly is your idea of "cooler"? Besides, I like my hair a certain way.
 * Hinata: Oh, yeah. You wear your hair like that so it looks like Lord Takumi's, right?
 * Oboro: Yup. As long as I serve Lord Takumi. I want to emulate him in every way. I mean, that's what inspired your hairstyle too, right?
 * Hinata: Hahaha, yep. I wear my hair like this so I can be as great as our master someday.
 * Oboro: Well, it's not doing much for you so far, I can tell you that. Lord Takumi is waaaaay cooler than you.
 * Hinata: I know! Geez, you're so obsessed with him.
 * Oboro: Hmph, like you're one to talk.
 * Hinata: Haha...
 * Oboro: Hahahaha!

 * Hinata: Yeah, yeah... I knew you'd say that.
 * Oboro: It's not usually a problem for me except when I'm around you.
 * Hinata: Hrm? What do you mean?
 * Oboro: W-well... All I mean is that I recognize you as a capable retainer. If I didn't, I wouldn't get so competitive.
 * Hinata: Oh, OK! Yeah, that's about where I stand with you, too. I knew Lord Takumi is always on your mind, so I feel like I have to up my game.
 * Oboro: D-don't say that! It's embarrassing!
 * Hinata: Why not? You started it. You know that I really love? When the two of us are together with Lord Takumi.

 * Hana: It's not a matter of appearance - it keeps falling in front of my face.
 * Hinata: Hrm, I guess that's something that isn't a common problem for guys. We're more concerned with practicality than with appearance. It must be rough for you to maintain your looks with all the fighting you do.
 * Hana: What do you mean? That's pretty condescending...
 * Hinata: Don't get so prickly, I'm actually kind of impressed, really.

 * Subaki:  Excellent. I'm looking perfect, as per usual.
 * Hinata: Hello, Subaki. You seem awfully pleased with yourself today.
 * Subaki:  Well, well! Greetings, Hinata! Yes, I certainly am. Even by my own impeccable standards, I'm looking remarkably handsome. It's hard to turn from my own reflection. I think I'm in love.
 * Hinata:  Huh?! How can you be in love with yourself? You're the most vain person that I've ever met. How can you be so narcissistic?
 * Subaki:  It's simple. Appearances are important. Perfecting one's outward image projects confidence and inner beauty. And people will always prefer someone clean and neat over a nasty slob.
 * Hinata:  I suppose that's true.
 * Subaki:  Do you ever put any effort into your appearance, Hinata?
 * Hinata:  It isn't my first priority. I just try to make sure that I'm not stinky.
 * Subaki:  That simply won't do! Are you trying to cast shame on Lord Takumi? Besides, don't you want women to be interested in you? You won't be turning any heads without a carefully planned grooming technique.
 * Hinata: R-really? Are you serious?
 * Subaki:  Of course I am. What do you think people's opinions are on your look? Let me spell it out for you. "Oh hey, it's Hinata! He smells like he slept in a barn!" "Ew, nice bed head! Ugh, do you ever change that filthy shirt of yours?" Getting the picture yet?
 * Hinata:  Was that supposed to be some kind of stupid miniplay? You're a terrible actor. No one in town would say that about me. What's your problem?
 * Subaki:  I'm just trying to help. Perhaps you're just too simple to understand.
 * Hinata: Geez, why are you being so rude? Listen, I admit that some of what you said makes sense. I don't want anyone to think I'm gross.
 * Subaki:  A clean exterior goes a long way toward winning over other people. Being clean is more important than being cool.
 * Hinata:  Maybe you're right... OK, Subaki. Teach me how to make myself handsome, like you!
 * Subaki:  So you're interested now, eh? That didn't take long. Very well! I will be sure to painstakingly teach you my techniques.
 * Hinata:  Thanks!

B Support

 * Subaki:  You need to set up a morning grooming routine to look as stellar as I do. Are you ready to begin?
 * Hinata: Of course!
 * Subaki:  First things first, you have to take a bath right after waking up. Then comb your hair very carefully. You should also use camellia oil. It gives your hair a handsome sheen that's bound to draw compliments.
 * Hinata:  Camellia oil? That seems pretty fancy.
 * Subaki:  You want to look good, don't you? Listen, that's just the beginning. Next comes clothing. it's important to only wear freshly laundered garments. Oh, and they can't have any wrinkles.
 * Hinata:  None at all? How is that even possible? Clothing naturally wrinkles.
 * Subaki:  It's simple. You just have to steam and flatten everything. Afterward, let them dry. Be careful about folding each item. You see, creases can become wrinkles.
 * Hinata: O-OK...
 * Subaki:  Why so quiet, Hinata? I thought you were excited to learn.
 * Hinata:  I just realized that this is impossible.
 * Subaki:  Huh? What do you mean?
 * Hinata:  Just what I said! This is IMPOSSIBLE! Do you really think I can be that meticulous?
 * Subaki:  Of course not.
 * Hinata:  What? Then why are you even trying to each me? Listen, thanks anyway, Subaki. But I think these lessons are probably pointless.
 * Subaki:  Don't be so dramatic. I like helping out with these kind of things. There is a perfect teacher right in front of you. Don't just give up and run away.
 * Hinata:  It doesn't matter if you're a great teacher. Like I said, it's impossible.
 * Subaki:  You're not even giving this a chance! Just stick with me. This won't seem so difficult once you've got a routine down.
 * Hinata:  Wait! Where are you dragging me now?
 * Subaki:  We're starting with step one. You need to take a bath. Come on!

 * Hinata:  You're right, I really don't...
 * Subaki:  Well, I hope you're looking forward to a lifetime of people talking down to you. "Here comes that old stink bomb- Hinata! Geez, has he ever even heard of soap?"
 * Hinata:  Stop it with your imitations! I hate your little miniplays!
 * Subaki: Listen, it's only a matter of time before people start talking to you that way. Don't give up so easily. Let's try to cover some more basic grooming techniques.
 * Hinata:  Basic stuff, huh?
 * Subaki:  Let's take this one step at a time. I understand that this seems overwhelming. All you have to do is change things slowly. That way, it won't feel as daunting while you get used to the new routine.
 * Hinata:  Hmm. Is that really true?
 * Subaki:  Of course it is. For example, you could start flattening your clothing every few days. That way, you'll have plenty of outfits ready and won't have to do it every morning. Or you could try and bathe every other day. Once you get used to these small changes, it won't bother you at all.
 * Hinata:  Oh, that actually makes a lot of sense. Thanks for trying to help me, Subaki.
 * Subaki:  It's my pleasure. Helping you isn't a total waste of my time.
 * Hinata:  You really have the worst personality.
 * Subaki:  Hahaha. I cover that with my perfectly charming exterior.
 * Hinata:  Ah, I feel like I finally understand you.
 * Subaki:  Hinata, that was meant to be a joke. Never mind, let's head into town.
 * Hinata:  Town? But why?
 * Subaki:  We need to pick up some essential items to help maintain your looks. A mirror, camellia oil, a comb... I wrote a whole list. It's fairly extensive.
 * Hinata:  I changed my mind. This is going to be way too much work.
 * Subaki:  Well, look forward to being teased all the time then. "There he is- that old be head!" "He always looks like he just crawled out of a trash heap!"
 * Hinata:  All right, fine! Just stop. We can go get all the stuff on your list. But only so that I can make myself look amazing one day to show you up.
 * Subaki:  Hahaha, that'll be the day.

 * Hinata: You left them? Why?
 * Kaden: Oh, no reason. I've just always been a bit of a wanderer, you know? I love to go off on adventures in the woods or into town, so I was gone a lot. In fact, I was on one of those adventures when I joined up with you guys. But it's weird. I usually don't get sad about being gone.
 * Hinata: Sounds like someone's a little homesick.
 * Kaden: Home? Sick? But I'm not at home or sick. Is your head OK, Hinata?
 * Hinata: No, not sick at home. More like sick FOR your home. As in, you miss it. And you haven't seen any of your friends since you joined up with us, right? So it's been a long time. A lot longer than it takes to visit the towns or the woods.

 * Hinata: The berries? How?
 * Kaden: Those are the same berries that grow around my hometown! I'd completely forgotten about them at the time, but I remembered it later. And it made me feel good, knowing I got a little taste of home way out here. It makes it feel like my friends aren't so far away anymore, you know?
 * Hinata: I see. So that explains it.
 * Kaden: Yep! And to return the favor, I brought you a whole basket of them! Freshly picked! Wanna eat them together?
 * Hinata: Sure, thanks! *chomp chomp* *munch munch* Ah, man, these are the best!
 * Kaden: Right? But I have to admit, the ones back home had a unique color to them. They were even brighter and more beautiful than these! Once the war is over, I'm gonna go back home and eat every one I see!

 * Kaden: Huh? Am I? I don't think so. I'm not sad... I just can't wait to go home again!

 * Orochi: There may be a way. I'll need to make preparations. This is not going to be easy. Next time we meat, I'll be ready to begin.
 * Hinata: Got it. Let me know if there's anything I can do to help.
 * Orochi: Nothing for now. But you're in good hands. I won't fail you.

 * Hinata: Ha! Hai-ya!
 * Rinkah: Hrm.
 * Hinata: Oh, Rinkah, did you need something?
 * Rinkah: No, I'm alright.
 * Hinata: But...you were watching me, weren't you?
 * Rinkah: Not you, no. I was examining your fighting style. The way you wield your katana...
 * Hinata: Oh yeah: it's pretty amazing, isn't it?
 * Rinkah: What's amazing is how you're still alive if that's your actual fighting style.
 * Hinata: Is that...a compliment? I can't be sure.
 * Rinkah: You may take it however you like.
 * Hinata: Awesome! then thank you! It's always great to hear nice things.
 * Rinkah: Nothing really brings you down, huh...?
 * Hinata:Not if I can help it. Hey, got time to go a few rounds?
 * Rinkah: Excuse me?
 * Hinata: You're curious about my fighting style, yeah? I'd e happy to cross blades with you and show you how it works.
 * Rinkah: I'd...rather not involve myself with you any more than is needed.
 * Hinata: Pfft, and here I thought I' found a good sparring partner.
 * Rinkah: Hrm. In that case, I accept your challenge!
 * Hinata: Wait, what?! I don't understand... You Flame Tribe people are a confusing bunch... But if you really do accept, then I am ready for you anytime!
 * Rinkah: How about now? The sooner I beat you to a pulp, the sooner I can b on my way.
 * Hinata: Hah, let's find out if you're all talk. Here I come!
 * Rinkah: Bring it on!

 * Hinata: Phew... You're pretty quick, Rinkah. Training with you is exhausting. I can tell you put some serious effort into your training.
 * Rinkah: I could feel the power behing your blows, as well. It was... unexpected. I'm certain your blows would have no trouble shattering the strongest armor.
 * Hinata: Is that why you were careful to parry them, rather than meet them head-on? Speaking of which, did you memorize my moves so you could counter them?
 * Rinkah: Don't say it like that. I was just intrigued by your style. If I picked up a few tricks... All I'll say is, your style is rare to me, so I studied you as you practiced.
 * Hinata: Rare? I don't think so, I know several fighters who fight the same way.
 * Rinkah: It may be common within Hoshido, but I've never seen it used in the Flame Tribe.
 * Hinata: Oh, I see what you mean.
 * Rinkah: I've witnessed a lot of different styles, but yours makes great use of follow-up moves. If I could meld it with my own, I could definitely become stronger...
 * Hinata: That... was a compliment, right?
 * Rinkah: Again, take it however you like.
 * Hinata: Awesome! Anyway, you'd better stick with me if you want to learn more!
 * Rinkah: What? No, you're sticking with me! Let's go again. Get ready!

 * Hinata: Damn it. You managed to parry or evade all of my attacks today.
 * Rinkah: Of course; it's only natural to get used to someone you are fighting time and again.
 * Hinata: True... Also, none of your counterattacks landed, so that means... We haven't determined the better fighter!
 * Rinkah: You're right. Clearly I still haven't learned all there is to learn from you. Only your strong defense can expalin me not being able to hit you.
 * Hinata: I think that we've come as far as we can, sparring against one another with swords. Next time, let's spar with your best weapon, OK?
 * Rinkah: Are you serious?
 * Hinata: Of course! You're best with a club, right? Our next battle will be with clubs!
 * Rinkah: If you insist... But you aren't allowed to blame the weapon choice when you lose.
 * Hinata: Hah, I'd never!
 * Rinkah: And I won't be responsible if you get hurt.
 * Hinata: I'm not worried about that. Our sparring matches are actually a ton of fun!
 * Rinkah: What? You're having fun?
 * Hinata: Of course. There's a limit to how strong I can get just training alone. Practicing with you is great experience, so I'm really enjoying this chance to learn. I feel like I can get a whole lot stronger by doing this!
 * Rinkah: Interesting... I think we are both on the same page, actually. We're driving one another to grow.
 * Hinata: Yeah! So don't you dare hold back!
 * Rinkah: Same to you!

 * Hinata: Hello, Rinkah. I wanted to ask you something, if you've got a moment...
 * Rinkah: Oh, Hinata. You're acting very formal today. What do you need? I'm ready for another match if you are!
 * Hinata: Oh, n-no. That's not why I'm here. I actually wanted to ask... Can I go with you next time you go to the Flame Tribe?
 * Rinkah: What are you talking about? You don't seriously want to challenge the Flame Tribe to sparring matches, do you?
 * Hinata: No, no! That's not it at all! The last thing I want to talk about today is sparring. I wanted to visti so I could introduce myself to them is all.
 * Rinkah: Why would you want to introduce yourself?
 * Hinata: It seems only right that I meet the people who raised the woman I care for...
 * Rinkah: Hang on, what? What are you trying to say?
 * Hinata: I'm saying that, as we've practiced and been around each other... I've grown to like you. A lot. You're strong and cool and amazing. RInkah... Do you feel the same about me? Do you want to be with me?
 * Rinkah: I... *sigh* I can't believe you asked if you could visit my village before telling me how you feel.
 * Hinata: I just got the order of things mixed up! It doesn't change how I feel! But I need to know—do you feel the same way about me?
 * Rinkah: Yes, Hinata. Of course. Ever since I saw that burning drive in your eyes...
 * Hinata: Hah, I knew it! I could feel the way you were looking at me!
 * Rinkah: What?! I wasn't looking at you in any special way.
 * Hinata: Nah, I could feel it. You definitely were. I don't want you to stop, though. Keep looking at me like that forever!
 * Rinkah: Hrmph. I suppose I can't say no to that...
 * Hinata: Excellent! I promise to make you happy!

 * 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!

 * Hinata: *huff* *puff* Not bad. Hisame!  HIIIIIIIIII-YAH!!
 * Hisame: Nng... *huff* *huff* Not bad yourself, Father!
 * Hinata: You know, it's been a few hours now. Aren't you getting just a little bit tired?
 * Hisame: Never! HAAAH!
 * Hinata: Whoa, hey! Sorry Hisamaru!  I didn't mean to drop you!
 * Hisame: Wait, what? Father...what did you say just now?  When you dropped your sword.
 * Hinata: What? N-nothing!  I said nothing!
 * Hisame: Father, I know you're lying.
 * Hinata: Grk. OK, OK.  I said "Hisamaru."  It's the name I gave my sword.  But it's a secret, OK?  So don't go telling anyone!
 * Hisame: ...You gave your sword a name?
 * Hinata: Hey! Stop looking at me like that!
 * Hisame: ...
 * Hinata: Look, every swordsman loves his sword! You can't deny that!  Even you talk to yours when you're alone, right?  We all do it!  Well, giving it a name is no different.  OK?  So cut it out with the stink-eye!
 * Hisame: What? I've never spoken to my sword.
 * Hinata: WHAT?! Stinky cheeses!  And you call yourself a samurai?
 * Hisame: I believe the one who deserves that question is you. Who but a child talks to inanimate objects?
 * Hinata: All samurai do, you big weirdo! You must not love your sword enough.  No wonder your form is so sloppy!
 * Hisame: M-my form is fine! And you're the "weirdo" here!
 * Hinata: Hey! You can't talk to your father like that!
 * Hisame: What kind of name is "Hisamaru" anyway? Do you really not hear how moronic that sounds?
 * Hinata: What?! Moronic?  Hmph.  Never mind.  You wouldn't get it.
 * Hisame: I should hope not, or I would fear for my sanity.
 * Hinata: Uh-huh. Looks like you've still got a lot to learn about being a swordsman.  Anyways.  Let's take a break.  I'm pooped.
 * Hisame: What? Hey, wait!  And he's gone.  Good grief...
