Love Will Grow

You called?

Well, no one was physically hurt. All things considered, though, I think things went.. -Clears his throat.- —well. And Imma get his arse with mashed taters someday.

Why didn’t you send for me sooner? I’m so sorry I let this happen…I definitely thought you said ‘mashed tears’ for a moment. I want to help in this escapade.

No, no. Don’t blame yourself, Maria. It was nothing to do with you. As for why you weren’t called beforehand.. well, you’re here now, yes? That’s what matters.

I suppose…I’ll be more vigilant next time. I’d hate to see you have to stand up against him without me to be there with you.

I guess you’re right. Thank you, Ricard…

Yes, that doesn’t seem to work out very well, from personal experience. But you’re very welcome.. and thank you.

Going it alone never worked out for anyone, I’ve noticed.

I really have missed you, Ricard. I know that sounds weird, but I have.

Well, there’s no need to be alone anymore. And don’t worry about how things sound; it’s been a while. I’ve missed you, too.

No more need for pointless sacrifices. I'm glad those days are finally behind us...

I must be taking leaves of my senses, then. I’ve handled petty events in the palaces of Hell. Perhaps the high seas will be a welcome change, no?

I just hope all this sitting and acting pretty hasn’t made me soft. Now that would be a real shame.

Aye, but unlike the seas ye traveled on before ye’d be darin’ rougher seas on duty and experiencin’ the seas of Hell on a daily basis, lass.

Ye’ve been just sittin’ and actin’ pretty? What have ye been up to? And wouldn’t want that talent with the bow and arrow ta go ta waste, would we?

That sounds like a challenge I'm willing to accept.

Oh, of course. When peace fell over Fynn, suddenly all the court customs were back in place. 'A lady wears dresses! A lady does not shoot! A lady sits and waits to find a husband.' I've had enough. I miss my bow. I miss being miserable, if that makes any sense at all.

Hey Maria!

Hello, Firion.~

I missed you.

Awww, I missed you too. You’ve been gone for far too long.

I know I have. —I’m sorry for that.

You don’t need to apologize. I’m just glad I get to see you again.

Hmm, have you seen Guy?

#LOL BEAVER #god I miss you guys

Not since the anniversary of the fall of the Empire. He doesn't like to come back to Castle Fynn very often. And I don't blame him, either.

You called?

#thank you my dear #it's true I've always wanted to ambush a person by jumping out of a box #and now I can do it with all my very best friends

I guess that’s better than leaving him adrift on the sea, right?

Honestly, I’m considering it. Though it would be a grievous disregard to my responsibilities, I can only deal with so many petty events.

We’re not that cruel!

Aye? Wasn’t expectin’ ye of all people after ye had Firion turn down me offer ta him, but not complainin’. Ye \think ye can handle petty events on the high seas?

YES.

WAT.

Ahoy there, lass! Be a while, aye?

Indeed, it has! How has life been treating you, Leila?

Well enough, fetched a pretty gil from a travelin’ merchant earlier! -grins- How have ye been?

I hope you didn’t hurt him too badly. -nervous laugh- I’ve been alright, myself. Cooped up for far too long, but I’m alright.

Jeez, I think I missed you.

Don’t ye worry, we only roughed him up enough ta take his goods and leave him be in the streets of Poft. Aye, if I were cooped up for a long time I would go mad with restlessness.

-chuckles- Ye can always join me crew, but I miss ye as well.

I guess that's better than leaving him adrift on the sea, right?

You called?

Oh, Maria..! You.. just missed some unfortunate company. Fortunately, of course.

Unfortunate company? What do you mean by that..?

—Nevermind that. He’s gone now. He’d better be, anyway.

-raises an eyebrow- Who was it? It couldn’t have been any worse than who I’m thinking of…

The worst of them all, I’m afraid.

…

It can’t be…I mean— Nobody go hurt, right??
