Alfred: Morning, Divine One!
Alear: Good morning, Alfred.
Alear: That’s…quite the smile. Having a good day, are you?
Alfred: You can say that again!
Alfred: I got up before sunrise and did tons of training. Even got an early run in.
Alfred: And the cherry on top? I get to see your bright and shining face. What a day to be alive!
Alear: There’s no need to tease me.
Alfred: Who’s teasing? Wouldn’t you be just as happy to wake up to the sight of a friend?
Alear: Well, yes. I do feel happy when I see my friends.
Alfred: See? Me too!
Alfred: But look, isn’t there anything I can do for you? You’ve been awake a while, but it must be hard.
Alfred: There’s bound to be a lot you’re still adjusting to. Tell your friend Alfred all about it!
Alear: Let me think… Hmm. No, there’s nothing bothering me at the moment.
Alfred: Good. Great. But if there is something, well, I want to be the first to know.
Alfred: Before you left Lythos, you asked me as a friend to teach you things─to help you adjust.
Alfred: And knowing you wanted to be friends just tickled me.
Alear: Our friendship makes me happy too, Alfred.

Alear: Hi, Alfred. Do you have a moment?
Alfred: Sure do! Whatever you need─I’m all ears.
Alear: I appreciate the beautiful breakfasts you’ve been bringing me in the mornings.
Alear: But would you please stop making them?
Alfred: Oh no! They’ve been too heavy on the meat, haven’t they? I just wanted you to get strong.
Alear: To be honest, they do have a ton of meat… But that’s not why I’m bringing it up.
Alear: I just feel bad that you’ve gone out of your way to do this for me every morning.
Alfred: Ah, I get you. Sorry about that. I wasn’t out to make you feel bad.
Alfred: I thought my friend would enjoy waking up to healthy, yummy breakfasts. But I’ll cut it out.
Alear: Thank you, Alfred. There was one other thing.
Alear: Every night, as I’m fading into sleep, I hear the haunting song of a flute…
Alfred: Yeah! That’s me playing a lullaby. Just making sure the Divine One gets a good night’s rest.
Alear: Ah, I thought that was your silhouette outside my sanctum.
Alear: Your playing is quite lovely, but I’d like for you to stop doing that as well. Please.
Alear: The song continued into the late hours, and it started invading my dreams…
Alfred: Oh no… I am so sorry! I had a hard time telling when you were asleep, so I just kept going.
Alfred: I was only trying to help, but… Wow. This really didn’t pan out.
Alfred: Maybe I’m not worthy of being your friend.
Alear: That’s rather extreme.
Alfred: I always try to keep things light, but I feel awful right now. I need a jog to clear my head.
Alfred: Sorry for the trouble, Divine One. I’m off for my run. Goodbye!
Alear: Wait! Alfred…

A Support:

Alear: Ah, there you are, Alfred.
Alear: Do you recall when you said you weren’t “worthy” of my friendship?
Alfred: Yeah. I didn’t think hard enough about your feelings, and I made a pest of myself.
Alear: Well, I disagree with what you said. You’re my friend, Alfred.
Alear: We ended up here because you were trying so hard to help me, which I do appreciate.
Alear: So, please, don’t ever say things like that again.
Alfred: Sorry, Divine One…
Alfred: Everything I did was way off the mark. How could I possibly still call myself your friend?
Alear: You already do so much for me, Alfred. Doing additional things isn’t necessary.
Alear: You know…you were the first friend I made after I awoke.
Alear: It would pain me if my first friend didn’t spend time around me anymore.
Alfred: Your first friend, huh?
Alfred: That’s got a real ring to it! Thank you. I’d be honored.
Alfred: I did feel close to you, y’know, even before you woke up.
Alfred: So when you finally did wake up, I was so excited that I went completely overboard.
Alfred: But I’m through with all that. From now on, let’s be plain ol’ friends!
Alear: I’d like that very much.
Alfred: Good. Oh! I have a great idea.
Alfred: As my totally regular friend, what do you say we do laps around the atrium together?
Alear: Laps? As in, running? Right now?
Alfred: No time like the present! Off we go!
Alear: Now wait just a moment! I haven’t even agreed!
Alear: Alfred! Alfreeeeed!

S Support:

Alfred: Good morning, Divine One.
Alear: Good morning, Alfred. Is something troubling you? You look a little upset.
Alfred: You could tell, huh? I’m dealing with a lot of emotions right now.
Alfred: You know me─I act, then maybe I think. Not the other way around.
Alear: Yes, I’ve noticed that in you. Once you have an idea, you run with it.
Alfred: But for the first time in maybe ever, I’m dragging my heels getting something done.
Alfred: This time, if I act without thinking, I might end up destroying a perfectly good friendship.
Alfred: Plus, I’d be going back on my word.
Alear: What do you mean?
Alfred: Remember when I said I wanted us to be plain ol’ friends?
Alear: Don’t tell me you’re back to feeling unworthy of my friendship again.
Alfred: …
Alfred: I’m the crown prince of Firene. I can’t be a coward when it comes to this of all things.
Alfred: Plain ol’ friends isn’t going to cut it with me anymore, sorry to say.
Alfred: Divine One? I want us to be closer than that.
Alear: …
Alfred: I said I’d stop going overboard when it comes to you, but I can’t help myself.
Alfred: I even brought you this. See what I mean?
Alear: The embroidery on this is exquisite.
Alfred: It’s an old Firenese tradition to pass down embroidered clothes through the generations.
Alfred: This royal piece has been re-sewn so many times, it’s taken on a completely new form.
Alfred: Still, I have it, and I’m supposed to give it to someone important to me to show I care.
Alear: Wow…
Alear: Thank you so much. I will happily accept your gesture.
Alfred: Oh! Gosh. You’re sure? It’s not too much?
Alear: No, it’s perfect. I feel the same way about you.
Alear: Thinking back, I’ve felt that way almost as soon as we met in Lythos Castle.
Alear: Now I have something for you. Please, may I see your hand, Alfred?
Alfred: The Pact Ring?
Alear: We’re going to be inseparable. I look forward to the journey ahead with you.
Alfred: Thank you, …
Alfred: I’m done holding back my feelings. I love you. You’ve made me the happiest man in the world.
