The circumstances of my birth...

[A little sigh.]

That's a really long story.

Do you have somewhere to be?

[ Sorry, he's nosy. ]

That interested in someone you've only know for a few days? Or... Are you like this with everyone?

[Lightly teasing.]

Well, there's not much to do other than to get to know one another.

[ Smiles! ]

And maybe I do show more interest in cute girls every now and then.

[ Immediately blushes and uses her free hand to cover a cheek- not that it does much to cover it at all. ]

Thank you? You're very charming yourself.

[ NOOO CUTE He laughs a little. ]

I don't know if anyone's called me that before... But well, I hope that my sincere interest in your story is coming across at least.

Really? That doesn't seem right.

[He seems quite nice to her!]

I'm interested in you too, you know? Why don't we share a little bit with each other?

[ Just hums. ]

Sure, if you have any questions, I'm happy to answer them.

[ Meanwhile, he'll lead them over to a towel on the sand so they can chill. ]

[She'll take a seat and tug him down with her, still not letting go.]

Alright. Hmm... What was your childhood like?

[ That's fine... It's kind of nice. ]

Oh, I'm going first?

[ It's cozy. ]

That's right.

You're tougher than you look.

[ Sighs. ]

Well, there's not much to say. It was fairly unexciting, tutoring, training... Your typical noble upbringing.

Hmm... I don't know any nobles, so I don't know what's typical.

It's not particularly exciting. You're usually kept within the estate, and exposed only to what your family deems fit.

[ He shrugs. ]

It's easy to form an extremely biased view of the world.
