  • Avatar: Hm? Was that a whinny just now? Oh, I think I see Hinoka. It must be her pegasus I heard...
  • Hinoka: There you go... Feels good, doesn't it? Oh, don't get your feathers all ruffled! It just makes it harder to brush you... We've been partners for a while; it was so long ago that I chose to be a sky knight... Hm?
  • Avatar: Oh, sorry, Hinoka. I didn't mean to interrupt you...
  • Hinoka: Hi, Avatar. It's not a problem at all. What can I do for you?
  • Avatar: Well, I overheard you talking about when you decided to become a sky knight... I'm actually curious why you did it.
  • Hinoka: I don't know if it's a story I should tell you. ... No, that's wrong. Now that we're reunited, I can share it with you. After you were kidnapped, I was so mad, I didn't know what to do with myself. On several occasions, I snuck out of the castle, thinking I could come save you.
  • Avatar: Really?!
  • Hinoka: But I was always stopped, either by castle staff, Ryoma, or even Mother herself. I was just so angry that those Nohrians had stolen you away from us... And I was mad at myself for not being able to do anything about it.
  • Avatar: Hinoka...
  • Hinoka: As I got older, I realized that I was trying to do the impossible. I was so young; there was no way I could walk through all of Nohr and save you. And then one day I saw a pegasus flying...
  • Avatar: So that was when you decided to become a sky knight?
  • Hinoka: Indeed. That decision has driven almost everything I've done since then. It's really made me into the person I am today---much stronger and determined. I suppose I should thank you, Avatar, even though I wish you'd been spared it.
  • Avatar: I'm the one who should be thanking you. If things hadn't turned out exactly as they did, I'd have needed you to save me! Thank you, Hinoka.

  • Avatar: Hello there, Hinoka. Tending to your pegasus again?
  • Hinoka: Indeed. He's always been my partner on the battlefield, after all. It's important that I show him my appreciation whenever I can.
  • Avatar: You were still quite young when you decided to become a sky knight, right? It's obviously a dangerous job... Did anyone try to talk you out of it?
  • Hinoka: Oh, definitely. Many people did. Your mother more than most.
  • Avatar: What? Even my mother? She was worried for your safety, even though you weren't related?
  • Hinoka: Indeed. It even surprised me how strongly opposed to the idea she was. She tried all manner of things to convince me to change my mind. Begging, bribing...
  • Avatar: How did you respond?
  • Hinoka: Well, I was still a very young girl... Ryoma and the others accepted her as Father's wife and our new mother, but I... I didn't do that very easily. As a result, I was cruel to her---more cruel than she could ever deserve.
  • Avatar: Oh, no! What happened? What did you do?
  • Hinoka: I told her that she wasn't my mother and had no place ordering me around. Of course, I apologized later, but it's impossible to take back what was said. I still remember how her face changed right as the words left my mouth. I'll probably regret having said that for the rest of my life...
  • Avatar: That was years ago, though! I'm sure she forgave you long ago. You were young and didn't know any better. I think you can forgive yourself...
  • Hinoka: No, it's better that I continue to carry this burden with me as a reminder, I think.
  • Avatar: Hinoka...

  • Avatar: Is that Hinoka's pegasus over there? Hey there. You're a lucky one. You probably know this, but Hinoka is pretty great. She's strong and she's brave...and she's really determined. At the same time she's so kind and caring. You couldn't have asked for a better rider.
  • Hinoka: Avatar? What are you doing here?
  • Avatar: Gah! H-hello, Hinoka! I didn't see you...
  • Hinoka: You jumped a foot in the air, Avatar. Why were you so startled?
  • Avatar: No reason! No reason... I'm fine. I just wasn't expecting you to be there. I was...wrapped up in talking to your pegasus about you.
  • Hinoka: You were? What were you saying to him?
  • Avatar: I was telling him how lucky he was to have someone who cares so much. Even though becoming a sky knight has really defined who you are...you were just as caring a person before.
  • Hinoka: ...
  • Avatar: I'm incredibly grateful for how much you've cared for me. I feel like I need to give a little back, too.
  • Hinoka: Avatar...
  • Avatar: You've worked so hard to support me. I want to be able to support you too.
  • Hinoka: Heehee... When did you learn to be so direct in your words?
  • Avatar: D-don't tease me! I'm serious!
  • Hinoka: I know, Avatar, I know. Thank you. I'm blessed to be your sister.
  • Avatar: And I'm thankful to be your brother. I hope that you'll lean on me for help whenever you need it.
  • Hinoka: Of course.

  • Hinoka: You know, Avatar showered me with all those nice words, but... I don't think I'm as wonderful a person as he seems to believe... Remember how angry I was after he was kidnapped? It's impossible to deny---even you wouldn't obey me back then... They say pegasi only listen to people with pure hearts... I can't even count the number of times you threw me as I was learning to ride. Heehee... Even then I had probably fallen for him and just not realized it. I can be pretty scary when I lose something I love...
  • Avatar: H-Hinoka...
  • Hinoka: What the---?!
  • Avatar: Were you talking about...me, just now?
  • Hinoka: I...um... You were listening? It doesn't matter! Just...forget everything you heard, OK? That wasn't meant for you!
  • Avatar: No. I don't think I can forget that.
  • Hinoka: But why...
  • Avatar: Because hearing it... It made me really happy to hear you say that.
  • Hinoka: What?!
  • Avatar: Never in my wildest dreams did I think that you felt that way about me. And while I am glad to know it...no matter how much we care about each other, we're siblings. It would be best if we just buried these feelings and never let them out.
  • Hinoka: I didn't think you shared the same feelings, which is why I didn't tell you... Well, forgive me for not sharing this truth with you before now.
  • Avatar: What are you talking about?
  • Hinoka: The truth is...you're not my brother. My blood brother, anyway.
  • Avatar: Huh?! What do you mean?
  • Hinoka: After you returned to Hoshido, Mother... Queen Mikoto gave me this letter. She told me to read it if---in light of your return---I ever worried about who I loved. I didn't know what she meant then, but a few days ago I realized she meant you. In the letter, Mother writes that you aren't Father...King Sumeragi's child. Since we also have different mothers...
  • Avatar: This is...a lot to take in all at once...
  • Hinoka: Thinking back, we all knew that Mother had prophetic powers. She must have given me the letter because she knew I would fall in love with you. The letter also talked a bit about her and Father's relationship...
  • Avatar: What did it say?
  • Hinoka: Mother wrote that she came to Hoshido after asking my father for help. When she arrived, she had a baby with her. He had been born in her homeland. That baby was you, Avatar. Father knew that you weren't his child, and yet he raised you as his own... Such was his love for Mother... Your mother, that is.
  • Avatar: Even knowing the truth, I can't think of him as anyone other than my father. This begs the question, though... Who is my father by blood?
  • Hinoka: I can't help you there. Mother didn't say anything about him in her letter.
  • Avatar: I see... Still, this means that you're not actually my sister...
  • Hinoka: I'm sorry, Avatar. Maybe I shouldn't have told you...
  • Avatar: No, I'm glad you did! I'm shocked, to be sure, but now that I know the truth, I can be honest, too. Hinoka... I love you. I love you more than anyone else in the world.
  • Hinoka: Really? Are you certain? If you are... Well, there is no one I would rather be with than you.
  • Avatar: I am. And I feel exactly the same way.
  • Hinoka: Avatar... I never dreamed this would happen. It makes all those days I spent planning how to rescue you all the more meaningful. I'm so glad that we feel the same...
  • Avatar: We'll never be separated again. Ever. I'll always be by your side.
  • Hinoka: Me too. I promise to always protect you.

  • Hinoka: Azura! Good. I found you!
  • Azura: Are you all right? You seem a little out of breath.
  • Hinoka: Yeah, well. I just ran the whole way here. I needed to apologize to you right away!
  • Azura: Whatever for?
  • Hinoka: Today, I realized...I have been so focused on this war and getting Avatar back, I’ve been ignoring you! I feel terrible!
  • Azura: ...And you ran the whole way here to tell me that? Did you apologize to the others?
  • Hinoka: What? You mean-- Ryoma, Takumi, and Sakura? There was no need! Ryoma’s pretty fixated on the war too, and Takumi--well, he’s oblivious. Sakura’s so delicate. I check in on her every day, but you’re strong. I thought--
  • Azura: You thought I’d be fine? Of course I am. You know how I love my alone time.
  • Hinoka: Ah, that’s right. I guess I forgot. Thanks, Azura. I feel a lot better now.
  • Azura: Since you’re here, there’s something I’ve been meaning to give you. Years ago, I found this little pegasus statue for your birthday. But you were so serious about your training, I thought you’d find it silly. I never gave it to you, but perhaps you’d like it now.

  • Azura: There's no need to do that. The important thing is that we're close. We're sisters! Oh my, Hinoka? Why are you hugging me so tight? I can...barely...breathe!
  • Hinoka: Hush! Let me hug you just a little longer. I'm enjoying this.

  • Azura: What?! You MADE this?!
  • Hinoka: Yeah. I thought it would go with your other pendant. Fire and water. Kind of like us. Also, I figured anything more complicated would be WAY too hard for me.
  • Azura: Aww, Hinoka! I don't know what to say.
  • Hinoka: It looks pretty awful, but I figured it's the thought that counts.
  • Azura: And I can tell you put a lot of thought into it. Thank you, Hinoka. I'll treasure it. This pendant was a gift from my mother, and now I have one from my sister too. I'll always have a reminder of how much I'm loved.

  • Azura: You already have. I'm so lucky to have you as my sister.

  • Hinoka: There you are, Silas. Just the man I was looking for.
  • Silas: Nice to see you, Princess Hinoka. What can I do for you?
  • Hinoka: I had some questions I thought you could help me with. It's about the finer points of Nohrian cavalry tactics.
  • Silas: You've come to the right place, then. What do you want to know?
  • Hinoka: So, when your unit first sights and enemy...

(Scene transition)

  • Hinoka: Ahh...that explains a lot.
  • Silas: Did that satisfy your curiosity?
  • Hinoka: Yeah. Though I'm surprised by some of your answers.
  • Silas: In what way?
  • Hinoka: Apart from a few minor details, it's not that different than how we do things here.
  • Silas: A knight is a knight. A sword is a sword. There's only so much possible variance.
  • Hinoka: Hmm...yeah, maybe so.
  • Silas: "Maybe"? You still have some doubt?
  • Hinoka: No...not really. If you think of anything else useful, then you know where to find me.
  • Silas: Understood. Happy to be of service.

B Support

  • Hinoka: Question for you, Silas. During that last battle, your troop had and enemy unit cornered. One of them saw that all was lost and threw down his weapon, right?
  • Silas: Yes, I remember that.
  • Hinoka: You then ordered your troops to change course and attack another front?
  • Silas: Right. Our efforts would be wasted on the enemy who'd already surrendered. Why do you ask?
  • Hinoka: It never corssed your mind what a triumph it would have been to finish the other foe? You'd racked up a considerable count in that battle, after all. This would have been an easy way to add to the total.
  • Silas: Wh—I would never! He may have been our enemy, but he'd laid down his weapon. He posed no threat. What "triumph" would there have been in his death? It's cowardice, pure and simple!
  • Hinoka: Hmm... you're right.
  • Silas: I can't believe what I'm hearing. Especially from you, Princess Hinoka.
  • Hinoka: Don't misunderstand me. I wasn't saying that'ws what you should have done. And I didn't mean any insult by it. Though I'm relieved you reacted the way you did.
  • Silas: Relieved?
  • Hinoka: Yes. Now, I know I can count on you if we're fighting side by side. Just like I hope you'll count on me.
  • Silas: Yes... of course.

  • Silas: Princess Hinoka...
  • Hinoka: Yes, Silas?
  • Silas: I still can't make heads or tails of our recent convesation. So I came to ask you directly.
  • Hinoka: Refresh my memory?
  • Silas: You were questioning my decision not to attack and enemy who'd surrendered.
  • Hinoka: Oh, that. Sorry if it's still bothering you.
  • Silas: I was mostly wondering why you would ask me that. Which reminds me, you wanted to know before about Nohrian tactics. Are the two subjects related somehow?
  • Hinoka: The truth is, I wasn't quite sure how to fight alongside a Nohrian. It's not that I distrust you, but...
  • Silas: But what?
  • Hinoka: I was concerned that your perspective on the rules of engagement would be different. I mean... Nohrians murdered my father and kidnapped my brother. So deep down, it's hard not to think of Nohrians as willing to stop at nothing.
  • Silas: Yes, but not ALL—
  • Hinoka: Right, of course. I'm not holding the whole nation to account for one man's actions. But that one man does lead the military. So for all I know, you've been trained to use any means necessary. And if you have, then we need to talk about that before we can work together in battle.
  • Silas: So you asked me those leading questions to provoke me into revealing myself.
  • Hinoka: Sorry. It seemed like the fastest way. You command a troop. I thought that your idea of tactics would be revealing.
  • Silas: And what did you discover?
  • Hinoka: I told you already, didn't I? I was relieved.
  • Silas: Then you think the two of us fight well together?
  • Hinoka: I do. You'll remember that I also already said I'll be counting on you.
  • Silas: Well then! With the air cleared between us, I'll be happy to help!

  • Hinoka: Silas...? Why did you ask to meet me all the way up here in the mountains?
  • Silas: Princess Hinoka. I'm glad you came.
  • Hinoka: Did you want to discuss strategy for the upcoming campaign? Or do you still have a bone to pick over our last conversation?
  • Silas: Neither, really. I wanted to get your opinion on some plans I've been making.
  • Hinoka: Oh?
  • Silas: Yes... I had a notion of establishing a new home here.
  • Hinoka: You'd build a house here? Way up on top of a mountain? Why...?
  • Silas: It might not be obvious, but we're standing on the border between Hoshido and Nohr. It's very safe, mind you—there's nothing here but hte native wildlife.
  • Hinoka: Hmm. It's got quite a view, too.
  • Silas: Yes... *ahem* Pardon me as I summon up some courage to say this next bit. When the house is built, Princess Hinoka, I hope that you'll live here with me.
  • Hinoka: ...Here? ...Me? ... What?
  • Silas: As husband and wife.
  • Hinoka: D-did I hear that right?
  • Silas: Yes. I want you to marry me.
  • Hinoka: But... But that's impossible!
  • Silas: Why?
  • Hinoka: Isn't is obvious? I'm the high princess of Hoshido. And from what i understand, you come from a noble Nohrian family. A relationship between us needs more than a simple mountainside agreement to work!
  • Silas: Which is why I want to build a house here. It's not exactly in Hoshido or in Nohr. We'd live right on the line, in both senses... I, a Nohrian noble married to the high princess of Hoshido. You, the high princess of Hoshido wed to a Nohrian nobleman.
  • Hinoka: ... it could never hold. We'd be forced to commit one way or the other.
  • Silas: I don't think so. There is some precedent. Just look at Avatar, who embodies both Hoshido and Nohr.
  • Hinoka: ...
  • Silas: You know me well by now, and because of that, you've trusted me this far. When you put me to the test, you did so because you thought we were well matched. Isn't that right?
  • Hinoka: Yes... but I meant well matched on the battefield. Not in life.
  • Silas: ...Oh. I fear I've made a serious mistake...
  • Hinoka: Don't be so sure. We know not that we make a good team in combat. And I think, now that you mention it, I'd like to see if we'd be a good team in life.
  • Silas: Then...
  • Hinoka: Yes. Consider your proposal accepted.
  • Silas: Well, if taht's settled... would you care to stay here with me a little longer? It's a long way down the mountain, after all. Let's realx here awhile and talk about our furute on the site of our new home...
  • Hinoka: Sounds like a pleasant evening, I'm open to hearing your ideas.
  • Silas: Good, because I've got a lot of them. So first I was thinking...

  • Hinoka: Ah, Kaze. Thank you.
  • Kaze: No need for thanks. I am just performing my duty. Besides, it is an honor to be entrusted with your letters. I am happy to be of service.
  • Hinoka: All right, all right. May I have the letter now?
  • Kaze: Of course. Here you are.
  • Hinoka: Haha! Sakura really knows her way around a pen. She's such a hoot on the page. Especially today. Must be in a good mood.
  • Kaze: A good mood? That is excellent news. Though I am surprised to hear she is so different in writing than she is in person.
  • Hinoka: No need to be shy if there's no one around, right? Now let's see.. Ah, so that's what it was. She found a beautiful field of flowers the other day. By the way, what did she look like when she handed you the letter?
  • Kaze: She seemed ecstatic. She was smiling ear to ear. She said she wanted to tell you in person, but she needed to record her thoughts. It was an experience she did not want to forget.
  • Hinoka: I see. Heh. Sounds just like her. Thank you, Kaze.
  • Kaze: It was no problem. It warms my heart to see you two exchanging letters. I vow to continue serving your family to the best of my ability.

  • Kaze: I see. I thought she was acting strangely today.
  • Hinoka: Is that so?
  • Kaze: I do not think Lady Sakura wished to concern you. Perhaps she will be more forthcoming if you go to speak to her in person.
  • Hinoka: Yes. You're right. I'll go see her as soon as I have some time.
  • Kaze: Yes. I think that would be for the best. I only wish I could be more helpful.

  • Kaze: Oh? I'm glad to hear it.
  • Hinoka: As you said, talking to her in person helped a lot. Thanks for the advice.
  • Kaze: No need to thank me. I had nothing to do with it. It was the strength of your bond. I talked to her myself, and it only made me more aware of how little I could do.
  • Hinoka: Come on. Don't be like that.
  • Kaze: Hm?
  • Hinoka: I might never have thought to talk to her if you hadn't suggested it. So stop pitying yourself. All right?
  • Kaze: ... Very well. Thank you, Lady Hinoka. I will continue to serve you both to the best of my abilities.If it facilitates better communication, perhaps I should watch Lady Sakura.
  • Hinoka: Watch her?
  • Kaze: Yes. So I can alert you immediately if anything bad happens. if you wish it, I will keep an eye on her at all times.
  • Hinoka: All times?
  • Kaze: Do not fear. I would not do anything too indiscreet, of course.
  • Hinoka: No... I think that would be overkill.
  • Kaze: Would it?
  • Hinoka: Yes. But I appreciate the thought, Kaze.

  • Kaze: Ah. So that's what's troubling you. For what it's worth, I think you could tell him any way you'd like. No one could turn down a woman as wonderful as you.
  • Hinoka: Do you really mean that?
  • Kaze: I do.
  • Hinoka: ... All right. Here goes nothing. The man I'm talking about is you, Kaze.
  • Kaze: What?!
  • Hinoka: You have such a kind and devoted soul. I admire it very much. Do you mind my saying so?
  • Kaze: Of course not. if anything, the opposite. You've no idea how happy I am. Just now, when you said you had feelings for someone, I felt a pain in my chest.
  • Hinoka: Kaze... You mean... you feel the same way?
  • Kaze: Yes. I love you, Lady Hinoka. I have for some time now. I admired you from afar, knowing it was not proper for one like me to love a princess. But I cannot hide it any longer. I adore you. Your kindness, your strength, your ferocity. You are a special woman, milady.
  • Hinoka: So, then. The real question. Do you believe you are ready to be with a princess?
  • Kaze: Yes, if you will have me. I shall love you for the rest of times.
  • Hinoka: Oh my. I think my heart just fluttered! I love you too, Kaze.
  • Kaze: I am overcome with emotion. Thank you, Hinoka.

  • Hinoka: Hah! Hiyaaah!
  • Ryoma: Hello, Hinoka. You’re really putting a lot of effort into your training.
  • Hinoka: Ah, Ryoma! Of course I am. The stronger I become, the sooner we can end this war.
  • Ryoma: I see… That’s an excellent goal. Though I regret that our lives had to go down this path.
  • Hinoka: What do you mean?
  • Ryoma: We’re royalty of Hoshido… Our place is leading and inspiring our people. I wish we were doing it in times of peace, rather than war. Also… I hate the thought of you--and all our siblings--being in danger.
  • Hinoka: Ryoma, you know just as well as I do that we don’t have time to worry about that. I understand your concern, but... Don’t let anyone else hear you voice your doubts. We need you to be strong. Hoshido needs you to be strong.
  • Ryoma: Hinoka… You’re right. That wasn’t like me. Forget I said anything.
  • Hinoka: I’m happy you feel you can be open to me. And it’s nice to know you worry about me. I want to end this war quickly to erase that worry.
  • Ryoma: I’ve got an idea. When the war is over, let’s go on a trip with all of our siblings.
  • Hinoka: A trip, huh…?
  • Ryoma: We can relax, set aside our weapons… You’ll be able to dress like a proper princess instead of a warrior.
  • Hinoka: A proper princes?! What are you trying to say?!
  • Ryoma: Just that you don’t have to be ready for battle at every moment. A little makeup, a little perfume...You might even find the perfect someone.
  • Hinoka: Ryoma! If you think for one moment…
  • Ryoma: heh…
  • Hinoka: You...You’re not serious at all, are you?
  • Ryoma: Hahaha. Did I go too far? Your face turned quite the shade of crimson when I mentioned makeup.
  • Hinoka: If you weren’t my brother…

B SUPPORT

  • Ryoma: Hinoka. I see you’re continuing to put all your efforts into your training.
  • Hinoka: Ah, Ryoma!
  • Ryoma: I know I’ve been putting off practicing with you. I’d like to correct that today.
  • Hinoka: Oh! Thank you Ryoma! If you’re busy, it’s absolutely fine to wait until another time…
  • Ryoma: I’m not that busy… Do you think I would suggest it if I didn’t truly have the time?
  • Hinoka: N-no! I just… You’re always so busy. I wouldn’t want you to set aside something for me. Though after our last conversation, I was briefly worried about you.
  • Ryoma: Really? Why?
  • Hinoka: Usually you’re so serious, but you were messing with me the other day! Don’t misunderstand me, though. It was worrisome to see you joking, at first… But as I thought about it more, it seems good for you to be able to relax a little.
  • Ryoma: That’s interesting, coming from you. You’re incredibly serious, yourself.
  • Hinoka: Maybe, but I’m definitely not as serious as you are, Brother!
  • Ryoma: We aren’t actually going to compete over this, are we? Besides, I’m this serious because I want to be. It makes me a better leader.
  • Hinoka: Ryoma…
  • Ryoma: I’m happy to know that you worry about me, Hinoka. Half of my strength comes from knowing that those I lead care for me.
  • Hinoka: I hope that you, our other siblings, and I can bring peace back tot he world.
  • Ryoma: I’m certain we can.

A SUPPORT

  • Hinoka: Hey, Ryoma!
  • Ryoma: Hinoka? I expected you to be out training more. Looking for a sparring partner?
  • Hinoka: Oh no, not today. I actually wanted to talk to you about something.
  • Ryoma: What’s on your mind?
  • Hinoka: Well...Do you notice anything different about me?
  • Ryoma: What do you mean? I don’t see anything… Hold on. Do I smell…perfume?
  • Hinoka: Yes, that’s it! I thought a lot about what you said the other day… You know, about being more like a proper princess and such. It’s difficult to really get dressed up when we’re at war, but the perfume should work. Although now I’m torn over which bow to put in my hair…
  • Ryoma: I-I suppose I did say something like that. Still, I don’t see your weapon with you. How are you going to fight without it?
  • Hinoka: Oh, I thought that maybe today I could do something more relaxing and calm. Maybe work a shift in the kitchens, or help the servants with linens…
  • Ryoma: What…? What is going on…?
  • Hinoka: What do you think, Brother? The pink bow or the sky-blue bow?
  • Ryoma: You can’t be serious… You’re messing with me!
  • Hinoka: Of course I’m messing with you! Did you really think I wanted help picking out a BOW?!
  • Ryoma: I thought I’d woken up in the wrong camp. Where did you even find those?
  • Hinoka: It doesn’t matter; I’m done with them. You looked so much more relaxed after pulling your joke on me… I had to get you back and experience that for myself--it was worth it! Now then, give me time to get my weapon and wash this perfume off, then we spar!
  • Ryoma: Hahaha, I see. Honestly, your joke even relaxed me a little. Regardless, I’m ready to spar the moment you return, so hurry up!

  • Takumi: *gasp* I-I'm fine.
  • Hinoka: You don't look fine! That gash in your leg is pretty deep. Try not to move! I can't believe we got separated from the others. Stay here! I'll go get help!
  • Takumi: No, don't worry about it. I'm fine. Go on ahead. I'll catch up.
  • Hinoka: I'm not going to abandon you like that!
  • Takumi: What other choice do we have? If you come back for me, I'll only slow you down! We'll be a prime target. Just leave me! I'll find my way back.
  • Hinoka: If you think I'd leave my little brother behind, bleeding in the forest, you're crazy!
  • Takumi: Why do you always have to be so stubborn?!
  • Hinoka: Seriously?! You're calling ME stubborn?
  • Takumi: Look. We don't have time for this. Those guys will be back any minute. We'll split up. I'll find my way back on my own. You don't have to keep pretending like you care.
  • Hinoka: What?! How could you say that?! Takumi, wait! You shouldn't move! You'll make it worse!

B Support

  • Hinoka: Good. You're here. We need to talk!
  • Takumi: *sigh* This again? Look, it doesn't matter. We were rescued. We're both fine!
  • Hinoka: I'm so furious with you! I can't believe you'd run off with a wound like that! And how could you say something so horrible? You really think I don't care? You're my little brother. I love you!
  • Takumi: You'd be better off without me!
  • Hinoka: Takumi! You can't actually think that's true! Where's all this coming from?
  • Takumi: Don't act so surprised! I know everyone in the whole army feels that way! They think I'm useless. Next time, leave me behind. I'll figure things out on my own!
  • Hinoka: Takumi, wait! *sigh* I wish he wasn't so worried about proving himself all the time!

A Support

  • Hinoka: Takumi?
  • Takumi: Stop right there. I'm not listening to this again! I told you. I've got to prove myself!
  • Hinoka: The only thing you've proven is that you're an idiot!
  • Takumi: What?!
  • Hinoka: You want us to leave you alone. What will you do? Take down the enemy by yourself?
  • Takumi: Exactly!
  • Hinoka: Do you know what we call people like you? Rash!
  • Takumi: What's that supposed to mean?
  • Hinoka: You think you're so brave, but jumping in without a plan is just plain stupid! Maybe we should all go home while you finish the war for us! Is that your idea? Do you really think you can fight all by yourself? You need allies!
  • Takumi: That's not what I meant!
  • Hinoka: Oh? I'll tell you something. The way to earn respect is by respecting others! Do you have any idea how the rest of us would feel if something happened to you?! We'd be devastated. Don't you remember how we felt when Avatar was missing?
  • Takumi: ...Yes.
  • Hinoka: I can't believe you'd put me through that again! Losing Avatar was devastating. ...Takumi, losing you would break me.
  • Takumi: Hinoka! I'm not going anywhere.
  • Hinoka: Good, because we need you with us! You're our brother, Takumi. I don't think you realize how powerful it is to have all of us fighting together!
  • Takumi: ...You're right. I'm sorry, Hinoka.
  • Hinoka: That's OK. Just promise me you'll never say something that absurd ever again!
  • Takumi: I promise.
  • Hinoka: Aww, there's the little brother I know and love. I'll always be there for you, Takumi.
  • Takumi: I'll be there for you too.

  • Sakura: Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to interrupt your training.
  • Hinoka: No, it's fine. What's the matter?
  • Sakura: Uhh... I was just admiring your fighting style, Hinoka. You always look so cool.
  • Hinoka: Is that it? If something's bothering you, you can tell me. I'm your big sis...
  • Sakura: I guess not all sisters are alike...
  • Hinoka: Huh?
  • Sakura: You're this brave, incredible warrior, and I'm...not. We're nothing alike.
  • Hinoka: That's not true! There are some things we have in common, like... Oh! Every morning we wake up with the same bedhead... We both like to run barefoot on the grass... What else...?
  • Sakura: N-no, I don't mean like that. I mean... personality. You're brave, and I'm not.
  • Hinoka: You have plenty of strengths.
  • Sakura: I wish I was more like you... Then you could be proud of me. I didn't mean to blurt all of that out! I'm sorry. I shouldn't have interrupted!

B Support

  • Hinoka: Sakura, do you have a minute?
  • Sakura: Sure...
  • Hinoka: I thought of a few more things we have in common.
  • Sakura: Really?
  • Hinoka: Yes. For as long as I remember, whenever I left for battle, you'd tell me to be safe... And you were always the first person to welcome me back when I came home, right?
  • Sakura: Yes.
  • Hinoka: Did you know that I did the same thing when Father and Ryoma left to fight?
  • Sakura: You did?
  • Hinoka: Yeah. It was you telling me to be safe that made me realize how important family is. I thought, "We really are sisters." Oh, and another thing. I may have had a doll or two.
  • Sakura: Really?!
  • Hinoka: Yeah, and, while I'm happy we have some things in common, even I have weaknesses. We should both try to be the best versions of ourselves.
  • Sakura: That's a great idea! I'll try to help you!

A Support

  • Sakura: Hinoka, I have a favor to ask. I want you to give me lessons!
  • Hinoka: Lessons in what?
  • Sakura: Well, um...up until now, I was afraid to ask for your help with fighting. I thought I'd only be in your way if we trained together.
  • Hinoka: Sakura, don't think like that...
  • Sakura: After our talk the other day, I want to try harder. I want you to train me for battle.
  • Hinoka: You're serious?! I never thought you'd say that!
  • Sakura: I want you to be able to count on me, Hinoka.
  • Hinoka: OK. In that case, I'll be serious, too. You have to do something for me in return.
  • Sakura: What's that?
  • Hinoka: In exchange for training you, I want you to teach me how to treat injuries... But go easy on me! Remember, I'm not going to be on your level.

  • Saizo: I'm impressed, Lady Hinoka. For all my stealth, you detected me almost immediately.
  • Hinoka: I thought it might be you. You have a very distinctive presence.
  • Saizo: I could say the same for you, Lady Hinoka.
  • Hinoka: Hahah... we've known each other so long, and you've never changed in all that time. So, what's got you skulking around at this hour?
  • Saizo: Lord Ryoma entrusted me with a secret letter. I have instructions to deliver it to you at this specific time.
  • Hinoka: Ryoma sent this? What's it about?
  • Saizo: I don't know. It's not my place to read his mail.
  • Hinoka: All right. I'll give it a look, then. ... What the...? Hmm, OK.
  • Saizo: ...
  • Hinoka: Thanks for delivering this letter. You've done well, Saizo.
  • Saizo: Thank you. I must return to my master now.
  • Hinoka: So soon? Aren't you curious about what was in the letter?
  • Saizo: No. My part in this is done. Farewell, Lady Hinoka.
  • Hinoka: Hmm...

B Support

  • Saizo: Greetings, Lady Hinoka.
  • Hinoka: Ah, Saizo. Do you have another letter from my brother?
  • Saizo: Indeed. Here it is.
  • Hinoka: Ah... ... I see...
  • Saizo: ...
  • Hinoka: Hmm...understood.
  • Saizo: Farewell, then.
  • Hinoka: Saizo...do you really not care what the letter was about?
  • Saizo: Not in the least. I do not presume to make Lord Ryoma's business mine. If I had orders from Lord Ryoma, I would read it. But I don't.
  • Hinoka: I suppose. But you've served my brother, and the whole royal family, for a long time. If it was me, I'd be miffed at not getting to know what these exchanges were about.
  • Saizo: We see things differently, then. ... Lady Hinoka... The way you talk seems almost as if you're eager to reveal the letter's contents to me.
  • Hinoka: N-no. I'm not...
  • Saizo: Understood. My apologies.
  • Hinoka: Anyway... I've written up a response. Please see that Ryoma gets it at the specified time.
  • Saizo: I will ensure that Lord Ryoma gets it, even at the cost of my life.
  • Hinoka: *sigh* Saizo...

A Support

  • Hinoka: Saizo... I have to apologize.
  • Saizo: For what, Lady Hinoka?
  • Hinoka: For using you as a messenger between my brother and I. But there was a reason for it. The truth is...one of the Hoshidan nobles told Ryoma something alarming. He accused you of passing information to the enemy, Saizo.
  • Saizo: What?!
  • Hinoka: In the end, it was revealed as a hoax the noble concocted to sow distrust. He was a traitor, with plans to overthrow the royal family. I never liked the man. He should be in a cold, dark place by now.
  • Saizo: I...I see...
  • Hinoka: Ryoma came up with the idea of having you deliver those letters as a test.
  • Saizo: Lord Ryoma was testing me?!
  • Hinoka: Don't blame him for it. We can't ignore accusations like that, however unlikely. We had to do something to get to the bottom of it. There were several nobles on the war council suspicious of you, not just one.
  • Saizo: I see...
  • Hinoka: But you must know that Ryoma and I were absolutely convinced of your innocence.
  • Saizo: And that's why you kept asking if I had read the letters? To confirm my loyalty?
  • Hinoka: Basically, yes.
  • Saizo: In that case, I am truly sorry. I have wasted your and Lord Ryoma's precious time.
  • Hinoka: It's not you who needs to apologize. The whole business with the letters was pointless, political pageantry. We're the ones who should say we're sorry for putting you through it.
  • Saizo: Don't be ashamed, Lady Hinoka. Tell me: If I had broken the seal on the letter, what would you have done?
  • Hinoka: I'd probably have cut you down where you stood.
  • Saizo: Just what I'd have done if I were in your shoes. I believe that you and Lord Ryoma made the right choice. Far from being upset, I'm proud, knowing that I've proven my loyalty beyond a doubt.
  • Hinoka: Hoshido is blessed to have loyal retainers like you, Saizo. We are grateful for your continued service.
  • Saizo: Thank you for your kind words, Lady Hinoka.

S Support

  • Saizo: Lady Hinoka, do you have a moment?
  • Hinoka: Saizo...I'm very sorry about the other day. I can hardly look at you without feeling ashamed for what we did.
  • Saizo: You have a big heart, Lady Hinoka.
  • Hinoka: Huh?
  • Saizo: Several times when I carried letters, you asked if I was curious about their contents. Was that your way of hinting to me that I was under suspicion?
  • Hinoka: Yes...I couldn't tell you outright, but I tried to warn you.
  • Saizo: You didn't need to extend that courtesy to someone under suspicion. But...that act of kindness was what I fell in love with.
  • Hinoka: Wh-what?! Love?!
  • Saizo: Yes. I'm sorry to spring this on you. And I understand your surprise. But I came here because it needed saying. Granted, I can't be with you. We are worlds apart, socially. Even telling you of my feelings is dangerous for a man in my position. Despite this, I needed you to know. Forgive me, Lady Hinoka.
  • Hinoka: Saizo... I can't forgive you if you've done nothing wrong. I love you too.
  • Saizo: Wh—?!
  • Hinoka: I fell you for when I saw the depth of your loyalty to Ryoma. I know that Ryoma is your master and therefore your highest priority. But I hope one day I can worm my way into your heart and take his place.
  • Saizo: Lady Hinoka...I am very moved by this. Nothing has ever stirred such emotion in me as what you just said. If you will have me, I vow to place you above all else in my heart.
  • Hinoka: Thank you, Saizo. But it's all right if my brother stays your top priority until the war ends. Right now, we both need to look after him, for our country's sake.
  • Saizo: Agreed!
  • Hinoka: Let's help Ryoma lead the world to peace so we can get there all the sooner.
  • Saizo: No duty could be more welcome.

  • Hinoka: Exuse me? This is how I style my hair on purpose!
  • Azama: Oh! So, you spend all your time on your hair... That must be why your clothes are so wrinkled.
  • Hinoka: Damn it, Azama! You're not wrong, but did you really need to point that out?
  • Azama: Well, I held my tongue the other day when you spilled all those eggs in the kitchen. Oh ho! I did have a good laugh about it behind your back, of course. For a mighty warrior, you sure are clumsy!
  • Hinoka: Look, one of the eggs was already cracked, and it made everything slippery... Wait. Why am I explaining myself to you? You're MY retainer! What's with all the back talk?
  • Azama: Yes, we mustn't forget that I'm your servant. Even though we only met because I rescued you. You were such a pathetic pegasus rider when you were younger!
  • Hinoka: That's true. However, I have always been handy with the naginata. Would you like an up-close demo of just how handy I can be?
  • Azama: You're threatening me? How rude! After all I've done for you! Yeesh, some people just can't handle even the tiniest amount of power...
  • Hinoka: What have I done to deserve this constant berating? If I'd known what you were really like, I'd have pawned you off on someone else. Maybe it's not too late...

  • Setsuna: Of course, Lady Hinoka... Please, enjoy.
  • Hinoka: All right. *gulp* Oh my---what is in this?! It's so bitter my tongue has gone numb in self-defense!
  • Setsuna: I apologize, Lady Hinoka. I don't understand... I used the same tea leaves as usual...
  • Hinoka: How could it have gone so bitter, then... Oh, now I remember... You're not incredibly good at cooking. But could that really extend to tea?
  • Setsuna: It must... But you aren't good at cooking either, are you, Lady Hinoka?
  • Hinoka: Hey now, you know I'm sensitive about how poorly I cook...
  • Setsuna: Heehee... We really are two of a kind, aren't we?
  • Hinoka: I'm not nearly as bad at cooking as you are! It's not fair to lump us together. I have an idea. Why don't we work together and see who can improve their cooking?
  • Setsuna: I don't know...
  • Hinoka: Don't be so negative, Setsuna. I know you don't like doing things... But this could deepen our bond as retainer and liege. What do you say?
  • Setsuna: Very well... Only because you insisted, Lady Hinoka... I will try my best, though...
  • Hinoka: That's all I can ask! Let's get together in the coming days and get to work!
  • Setsuna: OK... See you later.

B Support

  • Hinoka: OK, I think the best way for us to improve is with a bunch of practice. First objective: learn to make an omelet!
  • Setsuna: Oh, I like eating omelets...
  • Hinoka: Likewise, which is part of the reason it'll be great to learn how to make them! That, and it is said that learning to make eggs is a good start to becoming a chef.
  • Setsuna: Ah. But I'm not really interested in becoming a chef...
  • Hinoka: We just need to approach this like being a chef is our goal. Let's get to it!
  • Setsuna: OK, what does it say to do first... Crack one egg. OK. Hai-yah!
  • Hinoka: Setsuna, what are you---? You've completely smashed that egg!
  • Setsuna: Oops. I think I cracked it a bit too hard. It's tough to judge my own strength...
  • Hinoka: OK, well, I'll handle cracking the eggs. You add some oil to that pan over there.
  • Setsuna: OK, I can do that... Oh no! Ah!
  • Hinoka: What's wrong? Holy--- Setsuna! Why is there a pillar of fire coming from the pan?!
  • Setsuna: It looks like that was too much oil.
  • Hinoka: Don't just stand there! Put the fire out!
  • Setsuna: Oh, right! My apologies, Lady Hinoka...
  • Hinoka: You nearly scared me to death, Setsuna. But...don't worry about it. Let's try and get our focus back on task. I've cracked the eggs and put them in this bowl. Now I just need to stir them gently while I add a little soy sauce...
  • Setsuna: Lady Hinoka, you are adding vinegar to the eggs...
  • Hinoka: No, this is the soy sauce... Oh. You're right; that was vinegar. Damn it.
  • Setsuna: We're really pretty bad cooks...
  • Hinoka: I don't understand how we keep messing this up. All we have to do is follow the recipe, and we can't even seem to do that...
  • Setsuna: Don't feel down, milady. I'm sure if we keep trying, we can do it.
  • Hinoka: I admire your optimism, especially after you nearly burned the kitchen down.
  • Setsuna: I know, that was a big mistake... But I really think that we can do this if we focus and work together. We've always succeeded before. No matter where I am, you've found and rescued me from all kinds of traps. I feel like, if we're together, there is nothing we can't do. You just have to hang on to hope, Lady Hinoka.
  • Hinoka: Setsuna... That's such a nice thing to say. You're right, of course. We can do this together, no matter what issues we face. If we can get through war, we can definitely win in the kitchen!
  • Setsuna: That's the spirit, Lady Hinoka...

  • Setsuna: Lady Hinoka, there is no reason for you to apologize... I'm just happy to see you so pleased with what we've done.
  • Hinoka: That's generous of you, Setsuna... But this really was all because of your willingness to keep trying. I...might have given up back when we nearly burned down the kitchen...
  • Setsuna: I'm glad to have helped, Lady Hinoka...
  • Hinoka: I think this effort really strengthened our bond. I feel like we can accomplish anything now! I know! Let's try to take on a stir-fry!

  • Hinoka: Excellent. Thank you, Setsuna!
  • Setsuna: No problem, milady...
  • Hinoka: Heehee, this really is a great omelet. No one could possibly complain about it! I bet if we master the stir-fry and combine it with this omelet, people will be lining up. I wonder what's keeping Setsuna, though... The ingredients for stir-fry aren't all that complicated... Oh no... There are mousetraps in the storehouse... Setsuna! I'm coming!

  • Hinata: What?! But, Lady Hinoka, the whole reason you have retainers is to rely on them. Aren't there some things you can order them to deal with?
  • Hinoka: No, I'm not bossy with them most of the time. And even if I was...
  • Hinata: You trailed off there. What do you mean?
  • Hinoka: Even if I gave them orders, they're not the types to jump up and get things done.
  • Hinata: That doesn't seem like the proper behavior for a royal retainer at all...
  • Hinoka: It doesn't bother me that much, so it's fine. If anything, I feel obligated to watch over them, really. Honestly, having to take care of them actually keeps me on my toes.
  • Hinata: Well, if you ever need help with anything, just let me know. I'll gladly help you!
  • Hinoka: Oh no, I wouldn't impose on you. Or on Takumi, for that matter.
  • Hinata: Don't worry! Lord Takumi would understand if you needed help. It really wouldn't bother anyone.
  • Hinoka: I appreciate the thought, but I prefer not to rely on other people. I have somewhere to be.
  • Hinata: W-wait! Lady Hinoka!

  • Subaki: Greetings, Lady Hinoka.
  • Hinoka: Subaki. How are you today?
  • Subaki: I'm doing perfectly well, as always.
  • Hinoka: I'm glad to hear it. It's been quite some time since last we spoke. We used to talk regularly back when I was in training as a pegasus knight.
  • Subaki: Of course, I remember.
  • Hinoka: I suppose it would be more accurate to say that you were mostly just teaching me.
  • Subaki: Oh, I didn't teach you that much. I simply showed you the simplest way to bond with a pegasus.
  • Hinoka: Back then, I had a well of hate for every aspect of Nohr. I believe the pegasi could feel that anger burning within me. But you showed me how to let go. To calm my burdened spirit.
  • Subaki: Haha, is that right? I feel like you may be giving me more credit than I deserve.
  • Hinoka: No, it's true... You told me that it wasn't about trying to control the pegasus. It was about bonding with the creature. That totally altered my perspective. You also helped open my eyes to the intricate beauty of nature. The rustle of leaves and sounds of chirping birds makes me think of you, even still.
  • Subaki: Is that right? Gods, it seems like a long ago now.
  • Hinoka: I recall those days fondly.

  • Subaki: Oh, Lady Hinoka. We keep bumping into each other lately.
  • Hinoka: Isn't that lucky? Our recent conversation made me recollect on my past as an apprentice.
  • Subaki: Do you remember the night of the storm?
  • Hinoka: I wish I could forget...
  • Subaki: It was a very trying night, to say the least. Lady Sakura had gone missing in the forest. You and I went out to search for her together.
  • Hinoka: I was angry that we couldn't find her, so I sent out more search parties. But you wanted to minimize our losses. We... We fought that night. I lost my temper. All I could think of was her safety. I caused a lot of trouble.
  • Subaki: It couldn't have been helped. After all, you were utterly exhausted, Lady Hinoka. You couldn't help but try to seek her out yourself. But the storm was raging to the point that the pegasi simply couldn't fly.
  • Hinoka: But you found me. And you charged into the forest on foot and rescued Sakura.
  • Subaki: I just had to concentrate and think where she would have taken shelter. It's lucky that no one was injured that night. Or worse.
  • Hinoka: We sisters certainly have caused you our fair share of trouble, haven't we? I'm glad that we had a moment to speak about it. I'll never forget... You've always been dependable, Subaki. I hope you know I appreciate that.

  • Hinoka: I watched you flying pegasi this afternoon, Subaki. Tell me... Are you helping to train this new class of recruits?
  • Subaki: That's right. Many Hoshidan recruits are hoping to become pegasus knights.

  • Subaki: Very true. Many of them actually look up to you, Lady Hinoka.
  • Hinoka: Really?!
  • Subaki: It's true. Mere moments ago, I heard one of the troops speaking about you. They admired your graceful fighting style and close relationship with your pegasus. I'm sure none of this comes as much of a surprise to you. I think you're remarkable too.
  • Hinoka: That's kind of you to say. The new recruits greatly admire you as well, Subaki.
  • Subaki: Is that right?
  • Hinoka: Your demeanor and loyalty are the stuff of legend. In their heart, I believe every Hoshidan warrior truly wants to be just like you.
  • Subaki: Oh, you're just trying to flatter me, haha.
  • Hinoka: It's true. We've made our way through a great many hardships together. So much time has passed, and now the troops look up to us. It's almost embarrassing.
  • Subaki: But as representatives of the recruits... no, the whole kingdom of Hoshido... we must do what we can to live up to their hopes and expectations.
  • Hinoka: You're absolutely right. Maybe someday, one of these young recruits will lead the next generation... It's an extraordinary responsibility.

  • Subaki: I appreciate it. So the thing is... I have feelings for someone.
  • Hinoka: What?! YOU need romantic advice?!
  • Subaki: I-I'm sorry, is this inappropriate?
  • Hinoka: No, no, of course not. I'm just a bit ignorant in the ways of love. Surely there must be someone more knowledgeable who can help you.
  • Subaki: You've never known love, Lady Hinoka?
  • Hinoka: No, I can't say that I have.
  • Subaki: You've never had a boyfriend? Or a fiance?
  • Hinoka: N-no, never. Oh, Subaki, why are you making me go on about my lonely life!
  • Subaki: You don't have to be lonely...
  • Hinoka: What do you mean?
  • Subaki: I must admit, it makes me happy to learn that you don't have a boyfriend. I apologize if this is too forward... But would you ever consider seeing me?
  • Hinoka: Subaki!
  • Subaki: I'm sorry. But I must admit that I have feelings for you, Lady Hinoka. Do you recall when we talked about the future? About how those who look up to us will eventually be leaders? I realized that nothing would make me happier than leading together. I hate to think of someone else standing by your side. I know that I'm just a soldier. But know that my feelings are true.
  • Hinoka: Subaki, it's fine. The truth is, I like you too.
  • Subaki: R-really? Are you sure?
  • Hinoka: Considering that you're Sakura's retainer, I didn't want to complicate things. But it would seem that my caution was unnecessary. I wish to spend my days by your side.
  • Subaki: Nothing would make me happier!
  • Hinoka: Together, we can provide encouragement and hope to all of Hoshido. Take my hand, Subaki.

  • Hayato: Hello, Hinoka. Say, what are you doing all the way out here?
  • Hinoka: I'm just folding paper cranes, Hayato.
  • Hayato: Cranes, huh? Your folds are so meticulous. That looks difficult.
  • Hinoka: Have you never folded origami, Hayato?
  • Hayato: Well I've heard of the practice, but can't say that I've tried it myself. Tell me, why are you folding so many of them? Just for fun?
  • Hinoka: Traditionally, paper cranes are folded while making a wish. You know, praying for someone's health, wishing for peace. Then you fold a thousand cranes to make the wish come true.
  • Hayato: O-one thousand?! I suppose if you make that many, you must really care deeply about the wish.
  • Hinoka: When I was a child, I watched my father go off to battle. I made paper cranes then to pray for his safe return. Now, I fold them in hopes that our army advances safely.
  • Hayato: To think that so much heart and care was put into each of these small cranes. Please, let me help you. I think I know how to make them even more effective.
  • Hinoka: More effective? What do you mean?
  • Hayato: With my help, I know that we can make your hopes come true. What do you say? Can I help you make the cranes?

  • Hinoka: Oh, Hayato. Did you still want to help me fold some paper cranes?
  • Hayato: Yeah. I've just finished the preparations for improving their effectiveness. Look here.
  • Hinoka: A brush and ink? What are you going to do with those? Write something?
  • Hayato: Exactly. I'm going to jot down a charm on every single paper. Then we can fold the cranes with our wishes in mind. That way, our hopes will be amplified. Don't you think?
  • Hinoka: Ha! That's just like you, isn't it? Adding the power of magic to our desires...
  • Hayato: Hehe, are you praising me?
  • Hinoka: This was very thoughtful of you, Hayato. Thank you for making my cranes even more wonderful.
  • Hayato: Of course. So first I'll write the charm on the paper and then hand it to you. You can fold it, and then we will have tons of pretty cranes in no time!

  • Hayato: As soon as I jot down all these charms, I'll help you fold more cranes.
  • Hinoka: Thank you. I can show you my technique for folding when you're ready.

  • Hinoka: Of course. I hope these cranes bring our troops luck during the battle.
  • Hayato: I'm sure that they will. I believe in you.
  • Hinoka: Thank you, Hayato.
  • Hayato: The strength of a wish is determined by the passion of the one doing the wishing. These thousand cranes not only have a charm, but heartfelt feeling within them. I know things will be OK.

  • Hayato: Wow, this is pretty tough. I had no idea that origami was so challenging.
  • Hinoka: It looks like you're really getting the hang of it to me!
  • Hayato: So when it comes to folding paper, flowers are just the beginning, right? If I'm going to be as skilled as you, I better learn new designs every day!
  • Hinoka: Hehe, is that right? You know, this is my specialty. I don't plan on losing to you.
  • Hayato: Oh, I see...

  • Hayato: I'm sorry, but I can't help my feelings. I really like this side of you, Hinoka.
  • Hinoka: Wh-what?!
  • Hayato: I can't help but be moved by your compassion and hope for peace. I thought that I simply wanted to be by your side. I know that writing a few silly charms doesn't mean that much... But my feelings for you are very real.
  • Hinoka: Oh, Hayato, I don't know what to say.
  • Hayato: Huh? Oh...
  • Hinoka: You're so friendly and reliable. When you confessed your feelings, I got so happy that I didn't know what to say.

  • Kaden: Heh. Yeah, I had to request them special from the stable managers. I think these ones feel way better than the ones we were using before. Here, I'll show you how to use them. You just wash away the muck with this one, and then brush the hair out with that one... And... ta-da! Look how shiny and beautiful it looks!
  • Hinoka: Impressive...

  • Kaden: OK! So! Pegasus Grooming 101!
  • Hinoka: Heh. I'm listening.

Like so! *brush brush* Next, change to the coarse-bristled brush to remove the finer pieces of dirt! *ksh ksh ksh* And lastly, you use the short-bristled brush to add glossiness to the coat! *rub rub rub* And voila! You're finished!
  • Hinoka: Wha—Kaden, I'm sorry, but could you go over that again? That was way too fast for me.

  • Kaden: Yahoo! I can't wait! I bet with her strength, you could practically get us to the moon!

  • Xander: Oh really? That's very kind of him.
  • Hinoka: I agree, but there is one small problem...
  • Xander: What kind of a problem?
  • Hinoka: You see, it was supposed to be a surprise dinner party. Obviously it won't be now, since I found out about it... How should I behave in this situation?
  • Xander: Hmm... How did you find out about the party?
  • Hinoka: Well, I was walking down the hall, and the door to Ryoma's room was open... I heard him whispering about it to another person.
  • Xander: I see. It definitely wasn't meant for your ears, then.
  • Hinoka: I have no one else I can talk to about this. As a fellow royal, I thought you might have some insight you could share.
  • Xander: Do you know what the reason for the dinner party is?
  • Hinoka: No idea at all... It's not for my birthday... It could be the anniversary of my first victory in battle. I think that's coming up soon, and it's been several years since it happened.
  • Xander: Well, my advice is to feign ignorance. When the party does happen, just behave as you normally would. Whatever you do, don't dwell on your knowledge of the party. Just enjoy it.

  • Xander: I see...
  • Hinoka: I'm such a fool. I bet there never was any dinner party to begin with. It's so unlike me to get excited over something like that. I was so nervous, I was almost shaking whenever I was talking with Ryoma. On the anniversary itself, I couldn't focus on anything at all. I couldn't eat, I couldn't read. I thought that Ryoma would call on me at any time. But in the end, the day came and went.
  • Xander: I understand why that would bother you... But try not to take it so hard. It's always possible that the party is planned for some other celebration.

  • Hinoka: Yes. You were right. I appreciate your help. There are a few things I still don't understand, though... Like... What was that dinner party actually celebrating? I can't think of any anniversaries, it wasn't my birthday... And if it was a Hoshidan celebration, why were you there, Prince Xander?
  • Xander: Erm...well...
  • Hinoka: Hang on... Could it be that you planned the whole event yourself? Maybe I really did mishear Ryoma and there was no party being planned originally... But you felt bad when you saw how excited I became, and so planned one yourself?
  • Xander: Who knows? I suspect that it will forever remain a mystery. The food was good though; that much we know!
  • Hinoka: You know, Prince Xander, you act like you are unemotional... But you are actually pretty sensitive and considerate to others.
  • Xander: Hahaha... You're welcome to interpret the party however you like. You may be giving me far too much credit.

  • Hinoka: I don't quite understand...
  • Xander: I'm sorry. Allow me to explain. After the last dinner party, I had hoped to plan more meals between the royalty. I thought that by doing so, we could bring our two kingdoms even closer together. But I also realized that you were the one I specifically wished to get to know better...
  • Hinoka: Prince Xander, are you saying... Do you have feelings for me?
  • Xander: Yes, Princess Hinoka. That is it exactly. Heh, it's actually a bit difficult to leave myself vulnerable like this. That's not a feeling I'm accustomed to.
  • Hinoka: You may feel vulnerable, but you aren't in any danger, Prince Xander. I've cared for you for a while now. Even before you planned that dinner you wont' admit to planning. That kind act made me think that maybe my feelings toward you were mutual.
  • Xander: Oh? Was it that obvious? I'll admit that I feared how you would react to my confession.
  • Hinoka: You have nothing to fear! Hmm... You said that eatin together today would strengthen our bond?
  • Xander: That's the belief in Nohr, anyway...
  • Hinoka: In that case, we'd better find something to eat and somewhere to eat it!

  • Camilla: Er...yes. You are "sewing" rather quickly, Hinoka, but your stitches are all off. See how they're supposed to line up? Like this.
  • Hinoka: Gah. You're right; this looks awful.
  • Camilla: Just remember - it's not a competition. Take your time and-
  • Hinoka: Grr! Why is this so hard? My hand is cramping up already. I can travel halfway across Hoshido on my mount, holding my reins the entire way... And my hand wouldn't hurt this much.
  • Camilla: Again... If you expect to become proficient at this in only one day... You are in for a rude awakening. Sewing is an art - it will take time to master.
  • Hinoka: I'm sorry. Maybe this isn't for me.
  • Camilla: Please, don't apologize. I just thought this would be a good way to get to know each other.
  • Hinoka: Is that so? Do you think we can ever become friends?
  • Camilla: Well, I'm hopeful that we can. At first, I was jealous when I learned that you're Avatar's real sister. And I know you grew up with a strong resentment of Nohr. But I've been impressed with your dedication to Avatar... I think we actually have a lot in common.
  • Hinoka: Well, in that case... I should give this sewing thing a real chance. Would you mind terribly continuing to instruct such an impatient pupil?
  • Camilla: Of course not. Now, unclench your fist, and let's keep going...

  • Hinoka: Camilla, come take a look at this!
  • Camilla: Hinoka? Did you sew this all by yourself?
  • Hinoka: Yup. Look how straight the stitches are. Of course, I only know how to sew in a straight line...
  • Camilla: That's quite all right. And besides, those are beautifully uniform. Excellent work, Hinoka.
  • Hinoka: Well, thank you, Camilla. It's all thanks to your patient instruction.
  • Camilla: No need to thank me. Your dedication to Avatar made this possible.
  • Hinoka: Don't get me wrong. I love Avatar, but there's more to it than that.
  • Camilla: Oh?
  • Hinoka: Well, we're both protective of Avatar as a younger sister. But I've come to think of you as a friend. A friend fighting alongside me for a just cause. I think that's what kept me going, even when I wanted to give up.
  • Camilla: Well, I'm just glad to have a new sewing partner. I've got a lot more to offer as a teacher, you know...
  • Hinoka: Oh?
  • Camilla: Oh yes, indeed. Have you ever heard of embroidery? You really ought to come to my next tea party so we can talk all about it.
  • Hinoka: Well, that sounds interesting...
  • Camilla: Yes? Splendid! I look forward to our next lesson. You'll soon be as sharp with the needles as you are on the battlefield.
  • Hinoka: Yes...I suppose I will...

  • Hinoka: Hah! Hai-yah!
  • Leo: Now that I've seen your commitment to your training... I can understand how your battle prowess became so well known.
  • Hinoka: Prince Leo? I'm sorry, I didn't know you were watching.
  • Leo: No problem, Princess Hinoka. It's quite interesting to see how both you and Prince Ryoma train. It's no surprise that you were both able to turn the tide of a battle on your own. I used to consider you both incredibly dangerous as enemies... It's reassuring now to have such strong comrades to fight alongside.
  • Hinoka: Prince Leo, I think you're exaggerating our skill just a little bit...
  • Leo: That is unlikely—the power you wield is undeniable. My only critique would be that your style is difficult to build a strategy around.
  • Hinoka: I don't understand what you mean.
  • Leo: I'm having trouble creating a plan that accounts for your aggressive attitude. Since you charge the enemy head-on, it'd be best to have a plan that supports you. But I find it hard to predict how you will behave when battle begins.
  • Hinoka: Ahhh. Heh, I see what you're saying. A gifted stategist like yourself would be concerned with how things look on paper. I'm more concerned with how strong I am when steel meets steel. I'll leave you to your board-game strategies.
  • Leo: ...

  • Leo: Princess Hinoka... I've been thinking more about the way you fight. I've concluded that it is far too reckless.
  • Hinoka: Thanks for your thoughts, but I don't need any advice from you. I'll fight how I please.
  • Leo: I must ask, though... As a princess and one of the leaders of Hoshido, why fight so dangerously? There must be ways to fight that don't constantly put you in danger.
  • Hinoka: I'm sure there are, but none of those ways are how I prefer to fight. I won't sneak about, attempting to deceive or outflank my foe. Just give me my weapon and point me in the right direction. I'll meet them head-on.
  • Leo: Perhaps you'd consider following a plan I've come up with, then? It accounts for your crazy charges by shifting troops to support and protect you. It has no downside, so you'd have to have a really good reason to refuse...
  • Hinoka: I'll follow your strategy if the situation calls for it. But the only thing I put my faith in is my own power. It's just my nature. It doesn't matter how many troops I've got supporting me.
  • Leo: Really? I'm actually a little surprised by that.
  • Hinoka: How do you mean?
  • Leo: From what I've seen, many of your retainers and subordinates put all their faith in you. But you in turn only trust in your own capabilities...
  • Hinoka: ...
  • Leo: You can't possibly believe that you can win this war all by yourself.
  • Hinoka: I don't...
  • Leo: Hrm. I apologize if I spoke out of line. Please excuse me, Princess Hinoka.

  • Hinoka: Prince Leo...
  • Leo: Hello, Princess Hinoka.
  • Hinoka: Do you remember what you said to me the other day?
  • Leo: You mean about you trying to win the war all by yourself?
  • Hinoka: Yes. But... It's not my intention to fight alone. I'm aware that the people who fight at my side have put their faith in me. It isn't that I choose not to trust in those people. It's not that at all. But I can only know my own limits. I can't be sure of other people's.
  • Leo: What are you saying, Princess Hinoka?
  • Hinoka: I'm saying that I'm afraid of depending on other people too much. That's why I prefer to fight alone.
  • Leo: But isn't part of the reason for having retainers so that you can depend on them?
  • Hinoka: It is, and in day-to-day events, or for minor tasks, I can depend on them. But when Ithink about the idea of ordering someone into harm's way... I couldn't bear to do that, so instead I take on those duties myself.
  • Leo: In other words, you'd sooner put yourself in danger than someone else.
  • Hinoka: Yes... Is that really such a fault?
  • Leo: Not in the least. On the contrary, it's a rather noble mind-set. It also explains why people put such trust in you—they believe you'll protect them.
  • Hinoka: Having them around to protect does drive me to be stronger... Prince Leo, I apologize that my style makes it difficult to plan tactics.
  • Leo: Now that I've thought about it, it doesn't seem like as big a problem... You've actually motivated and encouraged me to fight by your side as well.
  • Hinoka: R-really?! Well, I'm glad to hear it, Prince Leo!

  • Leo: Hey, Princess Hinoka. I apologize if this seems incredibly random... But have you given much thought to relationships?
  • Hinoka: P-Prince Leo! Why are you bringing this up all of a sudden?! Anyway, aren't we all incredibly busy? It seems there are other things to focus on...
  • Leo: There is no reason that love should fall by the wayside, even in times of war.
  • Hinoka: There is some truth to that, I'll admit...
  • Leo: I'm sorry if this seems rude, but you have not answered my question...
  • Hinoka: If you're going to be so persistent... W-well... I am human... Of course I've thought about relationships. Who hasn't? But even if there was someone I was in love with... I couldn't risk confessing my feelings and then losing him in battle.
  • Leo: I understand what you're saying, but I feel a little differently... I don't think I can afford to risk losing the woman I love without admitting my feelings.
  • Hinoka: What are you trying to say?!
  • Leo: Princess Hinoka, I am in love with you. I'm telling you this because I want to know if you feel the same.
  • Hinoka: You...you love me... Is this really true? You aren't messing with me, are you? This isn't some brand of Nohrian humor?
  • Leo: I promise you, I'm not making any sort of joke. I adore you from the depths of my soul. I've felt drawn to you for a while, but when you said you'd risk yourself before others... Well, your courage and kindness won my heart.
  • Hinoka: Prince Leo... I love you too. But wouldn't a relationship between us be difficult, since we're both royalty? I'm sure there's some complicated process for royals to become involved... And an even more complex one for royals from kingdoms at war!
  • Leo: That may be true, but I won't let it hold me back if you won't. What do you say, Hinoka?
  • Hinoka: ...You know that this wouldn't change how I am, on or off the battlefield? I'll still drive forward into the enemy, still risk myself before I risk my friends... If you can accept that, then...
  • Leo: If that's all you wish, then I'd gladly relent. I know what kind of person I fell for. Though I won't stop forming strategies that offer you support in battle.
  • Hinoka: Heh... I wouldn't have it any other way.

  • Hinoka: Yeah, Kana? What is it?
  • Kana: Look! I picked some pretty flowers for you! They're yellow like the sun!
  • Hinoka: Oh, thank you, Kana. They're very pretty.
  • Kana: Do you like them?
  • Hinoka: I do. But what's gotten into you lately? You seem to be bringing me an awful lot of flowers these days.
  • Kana: I just remember 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 to help you smile!
  • Hinoka: Haha. I think I remember that too. You've got a good memory, Kana. I'm glad you've held on to that. But I have a request for you.
  • Kana: Anything, Mama. What do you need?
  • Hinoka: Remember how I told you that flowers are living things too? Well, when you pick them, it hurts them, and they start to wither away. You sohuld never take a life if it's not necessary. Even a flower's life.
  • Kana: Oh no! I've been hurting them?! It was an accident! I'm sorry, flowers!
  • Hinoka: Don't worry, Kana. I'm sure the flowers will forgive you. The important thing is that you don't pick any more of them, OK?
  • Kana: OK! B-but...if I don't do that, then how can I show you the neat flowers I find?
  • Hinoka: Hm. Next time you find some, come and get me. Then we can go and look at them together. How does that sound?
  • Kana: Really? You won't be too busy?
  • Hinoka: Me? Too busy for you? Never!
  • Kana: OK, then it's a deal! We'll go look at all the pretty flowers together! That's a promise, Mama!

  • Caeldori: Hm. The advance troops have just received fresh recruits, so they'll be needing tents. And a larger shipment of grain. Have the quartermaster make the arrangements.
  • Hoshidan: At once, milady. And would you like him to resume his duties managing the armory?
  • Caeldori: No. I will continue to oversee the armory personally. On that note, please go to the smiths and requisition the items on this list. Delivery is expected within the fortnight.
  • Hoshidan: Yes, milady. Right away, milady.
  • Hinoka: Well, someone's been busy, huh?
  • Caeldori: Oh, Mother! How can I help you?
  • Hinoka: I heard the supply division was short of hands and thought I could help. But it looks like you've got it all handled. Whoever appointed you really knew what they were doing, huh? It's a good fit for a workhorse like you.
  • Caeldori: You flatter me, but I've got plenty of room for improvement yet. I'm still very new to this kind of work.
  • Hinoka: Yeah, yeah, enough with the false modesty, kiddo! Now, what can your ma help with? Any heavy lifting in need of doing?
  • Caeldori: Thank you, Mother. I appreciate your offer, truly, but I have nothing for you to do. All I've left is the inventory.
  • Hinoka: Then I'll help with that! With an army this size, it's got to take a while for one person to count everything.
  • Caeldori: Well, see, about that—
  • Hinoka: Here, show me the list. We just need to make sure the numbers match, right?
  • Caeldori: I—Er. Please give that back. It's important.
  • Hinoka: Huh? This isn't a log. What is it? Some kind of map?
  • Caeldori: Er, something like that, yes. It's a plan for the armory I drew up a little while ago. If the supplies are stored according to the plan, they can be counted very easily. It takes a fraction of the time and... only one person. I'm sorry, Mother.
  • Hinoka: I see... So you're sure there's nothing else I can do?
  • Caeldori: Well, I've prepared some tea for just such an occasion. Please, help yourself. Over there.
  • Hinoka: Uh. OK, Sure. Sounds delicious... (Am I... am I being coddled? Who does she think she is?)

  • Caeldori: Is something wrong? You seem a little off today.
  • Hinoka: Oh, no. I'm fine. Nothing's wrong. Why would anything be wrong? Hahahaha! I just came to offer my help again, but it looks like you still don't need it. I'm impressed, to be honest. No hesitation. Precise, rapid orders. Intense focus. You were so impressive, in fact, that I had absolutely nothing to offer you. So I guess I'll just sit over here and drink my tea while you work. Again. *siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiip*

  • Hinoka: Huh? What do you mean?
  • Caeldori: I mean that... I have never seen Father work hard at anything. But I have seen you do, so. I know that you trained for years to acquire your skills. It was your work ethic that gave me the courage to improve myself. You made me understand that I didn't need to be naturally perfect to succeed in life. So thank you, Mother. I would not be who I am without you.
  • Hinoka: Caeldori... Thank you. It makes me so happy to hear you say that. Gah, I feel so stupid! Gettint this emotional over something so silly.
  • Caeldori: No, Mother, it's all right. Just... please, never think you are not as important a part of me as Father, OK?
  • Hinoka: OK. OK. You're right. Heh. How did I get so lucky, to have a daughter like you? I'm so pround of you, Caeldori. Thank you.
