[ Said a little too quickly as she continues to hide under the bed.
Meanwhile, the commotion outside soon calms down enough before the owners of the voices - whom Lon'qu will recognize as Chrom and Robin - soon decide to head out. Their voices fade into the distance.
Though Lissa refuses to actually come out of hiding from under the bed until she's sure that the coast is clear. ]
. . . are they gone?
no subject
[He should walk right up to Chrom and tell him where you are, Lissa, if you're going with that attitude.]
...Maybe.
no subject
[ Lissa pouts from her hiding spot under the bed, peeking her head out and groaning to herself as she all but faceplants the floor. ]
Do you know how awkward it's gonna be if I have to face them now?! It's not like I went in there knowing I was interrupting something as important as a proposal--!!!
[ . . .
Ah.
That... explains a lot, actually... ]
no subject
[If he were in this type of situation... Yeah, he'd definitely be pissed.]
What were you thinking, doing something like that?
no subject
Chrom told me that he was going to go off training or something, so I figured with him distracted and Robin, well, being Robin I could get her back for that frog she left in my tent the other day...
[ Ah, yes, the prank war... it rages on... ]
So I go to her tent, ready to release the birds I'd caught in retaliation, and then next thing I know I hear Chrom shouting and Robin screaming to get them out of her face!
. . . granted, her expression was really funny, but the point being, I didn't even know he was going to propose to her until I felt the ring hit me in the face.
[ A beat. ]
... it was a really simple looking ring, too. Like... unremarkable. I would've thought he'd give her his signet ring or something... you know, the one with the family crest on it?
[ Lissa, is that really what you're concerned about? ]
no subject
Where... does he even begin...]
...Getting caught up in something that childish was your first mistake, I think.
[...He does have a point.]
Does the appearance of the ring really matter in this case? It's more of a symbol than anything else, isn't it...?
no subject
Don't judge her, it's not her fault that Robin's the only one with beautiful and amazing reactions to the pranks she pulls off on a semi-regular basis! :T ]
Well, it's her fault for continuing it! I was willing to stop, at least...
[ Either way, once he mentions the ring, her expression just drops into one of exasperation as she stares at like.
. . . really, Lon'qu? Really? She can't help but let out a displeased sound at his seeming indifference to the ring, shooting him a disapproving look as she readied herself to explain a thing. ]
But Lon'qu! You don't get it, it's a big deal! This is her engagement ring we’re talking about! If there’s any time a girl should spoil herself, it’s when she’s about to become a bride!
no subject
[He's seen that prank war. He's lived through this prank war. It's somehow worse than actual war.
Please, Naga, just let it end. He has no stake in this fight!]
...Is it really that important? [Well, he's from a pretty poor area... So he's never really seen extravagant rings or weddings before.] The point is the union, not the trinkets, right?
no subject
[ And this is why the war continues. May Naga help you all.
That said... that does get Lissa to pause as she crawls out from under Lon'qu's bed - finally - before she responds. ]
Well, yes, but weddings are not just about the unions, but celebrating them, too! Some of us like to have a bit of fun on our special day, after all~
[ Considering that she's pretty much grown up in the climate of the royal families and the nobility of Ylisse? Yeah, she's pretty much used to extravagance and gaiety being the norm for weddings... ]
no subject
[Why do you do this to everyone, Lissa.]
Is that how it is? I wouldn't really know. I've never really been to any extravagant ceremonies.
I guess I don't really see the point. Just being together with the person you love... I always figured that was enough.
[Culture clash at its finest.]
no subject
[ Lissa can't help but grin cheekily at that, though she does pause thoughtfully at Lon'qu's words again as her cheeky smiles become a more wistful one, nodding to herself. ]
... I feel like Robin would say the same thing, too, actually. Whenever I see them together, they always look so happy together...
I hope they take time out to enjoy being engaged! I know that if I had a fiancé, I’d make sure to spend time with him every day and talk about our future together.
[ . . .
Lissa, you're surprisingly quite the romantic, aren't you...? ]
no subject
[Seriously, Lissa, why this...]
...Agreed. Whenever they're near each other, they're calmer. That's a good sign.
That's... surprising, coming from you. But it sounds nice.
no subject
[ Said while huffing at him, a very obvious pout in her expression. Still... her expression softens somewhat as she glances at Lon'qu for a moment longer than she really needed to...
Before she turns away, tugging at her collar as she looked up at the tent ceiling. ]
It really does, huh...
... have you ever thought about it? I mean... once this war's over. Have you ever thought about finding someone to settle down with?
