Alear x Panette



C Support:

Panette: HYAAA!
Alear: That was incredible!
Panette: Yes. Learn to strike with that much force and you are sure to trounce all comers.
Panette: In truth, I was rather surprised when you asked me for lessons in brawling.
Panette: I take it you wish to give someone a forceful talking-to. A debtor, perhaps?
Alear: What? No, nothing like that.
Alear: I figure that I could lose my weapon when I’m in battle or get ambushed when I’m not.
Alear: Just in case, it’s best I learn how to hold my own in physical combat.
Panette: I see. That is quite shrewd, Divine One.
Panette: Very well. I shall instruct you in the ancient art of the fisticuffs.
Panette: How to hone an indomitable spirit. How to repel foes with a mere scowl.
Panette: There is much I can teach you.
Alear: I see. Well, I’m ready to learn!
Panette: Good. I will make you into the most fearsome of scrappers. Let us begin!

B Support:

Panette: In a brawl, the most crucial blow is the first. Victory oft rests on attacking before your foe.
Panette: Thus, you must be agile─agile enough to strike with a raptor’s swiftness!
Alear: Be agile. Got it.
Panette: That way, even if your enemies do attack first, you will be able to evade their fists.
Alear: Makes sense…
Panette: Is something the matter, Divine One?
Alear: I’m just surprised that a noblewoman like you knows so much about brawling.
Panette: I suppose there is no need to obscure the truth. The woman standing before you is not a noble.
Panette: Why, in time past, she was quite wild indeed.
Alear: Really?!
Panette: Yes. My parents were awful─gallivanting about with nary a thought for their children.
Panette: So I fled. Before the princess appointed me, I lived a roaming, solitary life.
Panette: It was then that I learned how to fistfight.
Alear: I’m sorry you had to endure all of that.
Panette: Sorry? If not for running away from that wretched home, I would hardly be who I am.
Alear: I see. Well… Would you like to tell me more about your past?
Alear: I think it might help me to hear about your life before you met Princess Timerra.
Panette: Why, of course.
Panette: If my stories of woe can help you, I would be all too happy to share them.

A Support:

Panette: Aw, damn. I guess it won’t be so easy to find them after all.
Alear: Panette? You’re up late.
Panette: Ah! Good evening, Divine One!
Alear: What’s that letter you’re reading?
Panette: I employed a Solmic investigator to find my parents. This is her report.
Panette: Alas, it seems the search has come up empty.
Alear: Huh. I thought you said your parents were horrible people.
Panette: Yes, well… Our conversation made me realize I have some feelings in need of resolution.
Panette: I thought perhaps now, with the benefits of time, I could speak to them with a cooler head.
Panette: Thus my desire to track them down…assuming they are still alive, of course.
Alear: I’m impressed. It’s brave of you to try facing them after all these years.
Alear: Panette, how about I help find your parents?
Panette: No, no… I would not dream of such an imposition!
Alear: It’s the least I can do to repay you for your training.
Alear: Besides, we’ve seen our share of dangerous battles together.
Alear: You, me, the others─we have a connection. We help each other. Let me help you, please.
Panette: Very well, then. I will gratefully accept your aid.
Panette: Truth be told, even if we do not find my parents, I have already found my family.
Panette: What more do I truly need?

S Support:

Alear: No word on your missing parents today, I take it? Don’t lose hope yet. We’ll keep looking.
Panette: Divine One… I have come to the conclusion that it is time to abandon the search for my parents.
Alear: But…why?
Panette: It is regrettable, but we have searched high and low. There is nothing more to be done.
Panette: That said, I thank you, sincerely. You have been a steadfast companion throughout.
Panette: Searching for my parents with you has been… enjoyable. I hope we can continue on together.
Alear: If that’s what you want, Panette, then yes, I would like to continue on with you. Always.
Panette: I─ I don’t understand…
Alear: I told you before we had a connection, but it’s more than that. I mean, I want us to be more.
Alear: Please, take this.
Panette: That’s…the Pact Ring.
Alear: You’re supposed to give it to someone you care for deeply. For me, that’s you.
Panette: Divine One…I─ I cannot.
Panette: My parents were once wildly happy with one another. But in time, their relationship soured.
Panette: People’s feelings change. I cannot bear the thought of that happening to us.
Alear: That was your past, Panette. You have a whole future ahead of you.
Alear: Everyone has their ups and downs. You and I too─good times and otherwise.
Alear: But you have the agility of a raptor, and now so do I. We can evade anything together.
Panette: Haha! Over and over again, you astonish me, Divine One.
Panette: I see I’ve impressed upon you the importance of agility. But what of the rest of the brawler’s art?
Alear: Nothing to do with us. So, what do you think? Will you accept this ring?
Panette: Yes. I will, gladly.
Panette: Stay with me, from now until forever, .
Alear: Of course. I am your partner and you are mine.
Panette: I like the sound of that.
Panette: I can think of no one I’d rather fight beside. You are the one I truly adore.
