Well, that took a bit longer than I had anticipated... My dear brother Zalbag can match me in stubbornness, apparently. It was quite the effort, convincing him to allow me to return, after all the recent commotion. One incident should not serve as reason to keep me away forever! Honestly...

Ah, on that note, I hope everyone is well? Ramza,

Comments

[brbusinivalice]

I am only grateful that you did not return at the same time as your brother.

One Beoulve is enough to worry about.

[amiably]

Ah, but Delita, you have no need to worry for me! I am perfectly responsible, you know.

[brbusinivalice]

...

Yes. Responsible enough to wish to protect your brother from any deplorable situation he finds himself in. While that may be noble, it can still lead to foolhardiness and danger in itself.

[amiably]

You say that as if you would not do the same for Te-- ...one of us.

[brbusinivalice]

...

What I would do has naught to do with what you would do, Alma. First and foremost, I am certain that Ramza would agree with me when I say that you shouldst look after yourself, rather than run headlong into danger.

[amiably]

Oh, so you and Ramza can protect your loved ones, but I cannot? That is hardly fair.

[brbusinivalice]

If you were harmed, what do you think would happen?

[amiably]

...

And what of you?

[brbusinivalice]

I would be fine.

[amiably]

And so would I!

[brbusinivalice]

You too often allow your emotions to get in the way. In such a situation, you cannot allow yourself to lose your head.

Until you do that, you will end up harming yourself in the process.

[amiably]

So you would expect me to sit idly by and do nothing? You should know that I am not fond of inaction, Delita.

[brbusinivalice]

Then if you must act, do not do so alone!

[amiably]

All right, I won't.

You may come along if you wish, Delita~

[brbusinivalice]

I had every intention. If you must go and act the fool, at the very least, one can be there to protect you.

And I trust you in the hands of few other than your brother, in any case.

[amiably]

I would be angry with you for calling me a fool, but...

Well, I suppose you are being sweet, in your own special way.
