[ eeeeh. ]

That somethin' you've got to look forward to?

[midway]

Oh. Well, I don't know if I'll ever get married.

Or if I do, by then no one will care who I marry.

[berserketype]

[ tilts his head at that last bit like ? ]

[midway]

Because I'll be old and irrelevant.

[berserketype]

[ dflgkhsdkjhgd help ]

That the plan then? Dodge until you're "too old"?

[midway]

It's not really dodging. My parents aren't with me, so there's no one to pressure me.

[berserketype]

[ oh. ]

Are they… just not with you with you, or are they…?

[midway]

[ lifts his hands ]

No no, they're just in another country.

[ Claude the only lord allowed to have parents. ]

[berserketype]

[ truly he's the only one and he's the most well adjusted. sort of. mostly. compared to the others. ]

Oh. Blimey, you had me gettin' all depressed for ya there.

[midway]

[ feel free to drop this! ]

I wouldn't want that! But don't worry, my parents are alive and well. And blissfully unconcerned with my marital status.

[berserketype]

[ locks the door you're trapped here now. ]

Aw, that's good. Gotta be nice havin' parents [ imagine if i left it like that ] who're just happy to let you do what you gotta do.

[midway]

[ I SEE!

He just smiles. ]

They certainly do that. They're big proponents of letting their kids find their own way.

[berserketype]

[ caught. ]

... That ain't a bad thing, is it? I mean, you might mess up but at least you learned along the way.

[midway]

It's not. I wouldn't have the survival skills I have now if I didn't have to learn to survive on my own.

[berserketype]

So it’s like… you had the support in the background if shite got real bad, but y’got to figure stuff out on your own and learn how to survive.

[ … ] That’s normally the kinda stuff you only have to do if you don’t have parents.

[midway]

[ Deciding how to keep this positive. ]

They were hands off. But I always had a roof over my head, and food on the table, and that's more than I can say for a lot of other people.

[berserketype]

[ gets you by the neck ]

Yeah.

Alternative's nothin'.

[midway]

Exactly!

In any case, after I solve all of Leicester's problems, I'm going to take some time to myself and go exploring. Maybe I'll consider marriage after I'm done with that.

[berserketype]

[ byleth is right there. ]

Leicester… that your home?

[midway]

[ Actually, he doesn't know Byleth in his timeline. ]

That's right. It's the country I'm responsible for.

[berserketype]

[ reset the game. ]

Huh.

Reckon you and Will'd have a lot to talk about, leandin' nations. Or, I reckon he'd have a lotta questions for you.

[midway]

[ ? ]

Will?

[berserketype]

[ ah. ]

Guy I'm travellin' with. He's gunnin' to win the race for the throne, and... well. S'kinda his right to, honestly.

[midway]

His right? How so?

[berserketype]

He's the Prince.

Everyone figured he were dead for like... twelve years? He weren't.
