[a nod] Honestly, I probably caused more trouble for everyone than they did for me.

[Except maybe for Raven... Kidnapping notwithstanding, because she never knows how to take his more ~*old man*~ comments.]

[That's not surprising to hear. Flynn's mentally sighing to himself because Yuri got involved in this. He's taken a back for a moment and then regains his composure. ESTELLE WHAT HAPPENED?

He totally buys what Estelle's saying and it shows on his expression. Doesn't mean he likes it though. That much is obvious too.]

[Oh Flynn, somehow you're easy even for Estelle of all people to read. Or maybe that's just a testament to their friendship at this point. She smiles fondly.]

You couldn't have thought I'd act perfect the entire time, could you?

No one's perfect Lady Estellise. We'll all make mistakes at some point.

[That's something that Flynn's painfully aware of. He made such a big one at home. How could he make the mistake of trusting Alexei? If only he'd thought it through more then maybe he could have stopped Estelle from being kidnapped.

Yuri sort of reassures him though. Everything should turn out alright if Flynn's assumptions are correct. He look torn between being disturbed and relieved.]

Yes, exactly. But because of those mistakes, we can always learn from them. [Like realizing she needs to be less selfish, or how better to use her healing artes. Likewise on her part, Yuri's reassurance of things working out puts her a lot at ease as well.]

We have to keep learning until we eventually find the answer we seek.

[Flynn nods to himself. Estelle's maturity is really something. If only she were less reckless, well...

asking for that might be too much. He's come to terms with Estelle's new determination.]

That's a part of growing up. Even Yuri still has trouble understanding his own mistakes.

Yes, I think so too. [Her smile softens at the mention of Yuri.] He acts so nonchalant and composed that it's hard to tell sometimes, but I'm sure he'd have an easier time understanding his mistakes if he opened up a little more every now and then.

I agree as well.

Yuri may open with time. That's up for him to decide.

I hope he will. [He's done so much for her, she wants to be able to do more for him!! Taking a better look at Flynn though, she nods, looking satisfied.]

So, have you calmed down a little, Flynn?

I'm perfectly calm, Lady Estellise.

[For now at least. He still sounds a little irritated, but he'll deal with it later. Flynn doesn't want to be mad when Estelle's here. She's not to blame for this.]

Good, I'm glad. [If only she knew that it's inevitable for it to flare up again later...!] I suppose we'll have to find a way to do something for you dreamberry next...

[that thing is so done for]

I apologize.

I shouldn't have acted so rashly. [HOW EMBARRASSING. ]

As long as you understand at least. [even though this is a repeat problem that will never end......] Perhaps next time you can take out your anger in another way... Oh, I could spar with you for instance!

Lady Estellise??? [NO.

NONONONO.

]

Your highness, you can't be serious.

I'm being perfectly serious! [She's smiling but it might as well be a :| smile SHE IS SERIOUS MAN.] Besides, it would be a good chance for me to show you have much I've grown too!

You've grown and I can see that well. You don't need to prove it to me.

Still, I think it would be a good way to spar. [But she is glad to hear him say that. She feels proud!!]

[Estelle seems really set on this! It gets Flynn to rethink his opinion. No matter what he wants, in the end he should pick the option that'll increase Estelle's survival. Considering what's going on back in their own world it doesn't have to be said. Alexei will put Estelle in danger and he can't be there to protect her. Flynn nods and puts his hand over the hilt of his sword.]

I understand.

I'll help you spar.

[He's so reluctant to do this, but he's made his mind up.]

Really? [And just like that, she lights up immediately. SPARRING WITH FLYNN OH GOD OH MAN. She's excited to show how much she's improved and see what advice Flynn might have to say. Don't mind her as she throws her arms around him in a grateful hug.] Oh, thank you so much, Flynn!

[Flynn's getting nervous. Estelle is thanking him for it and that alone is enough for him to go through with this.]

Lady Estellise...

[He's trying to hide his embarrassment and he shifts around awkwardly.]

Of course. I meant it. We'll spar whenever you're ready.

[oh come on flynn THEY'RE FRIENDS good friends in fact, so don't be so stuffy!!]

Hehe, I'll be looking forward to it! I hope you'll be prepared.

[He's trying not to be! Go easy on him...]

I'll be more than prepared. I am a knight after all. I'll stand true to my honor as one and fight with everything I've got. [If he doesn't then Yuri will do something to screw it up and that's just not a situation he wants to get into.]

[there is no such thing as going easy when it comes to estelle....]

As knights, then. [a beat] Well, not that I'm a knight, but I'm sure you'll see that Sir Drake taught me quite well!
