:7d_saintduke_neutral: You remember our adventure in that strange cave, right? It wasn't so long ago.
:7d_saintduke_neutral: The moment I saw that woman dive for the RITUAL CIRCLE, my mind went into overdrive.
:7d_saintduke_neutral: It implored me to strike first, to strike swiftly.
:7d_saintduke_verygentle: But for the first time, it wasn't to protect myself, or for the sake of my mission....
:7d_saintduke_verygentle: ...It was to protect someone who had grown so dear to me.
:7d_saintduke_verygentle: I've... never felt something like that before.

:7d_saintduke_verygentle: Though I kept my intentions from you until now, everything else was spoken with sincerity.
:7d_saintduke_verygentle: The feelings we shared, the earnest conversations we've had... I meant everything I said.
:7d_saintduke_sad: More than anything, I wish we had met under better circumstances.
:7d_saintduke_smile: But I do not regret that we met at all. For the first time, I'm going to follow my own path in life.
:7d_saintduke_verygentle: I shall devote myself to you, and only you, forevermore.
:7d_ceri_scarf_gentle: It's hard not to be charmed by your chivalrous words...
:7d_ceri_scarf_concerned: ...But I don't think I can just act like nothing happened.
:7d_siphon_verygentle: That's okay. Saint can earn your trust again with some time.
:7d_ceri_scarf_neutral: To start, why don't you go ahead and tell me about these 'Snowhunters' of yours?
:7d_ceri_scarf_neutral: At this point I think it's best if we have no secrets between us.
:7d_saintduke_neutral: Of course, my lady. I'll tell you what I know.
:7d_saintduke_neutral: On the surface, the Snowhunters are tasked with hunting meat to help feed the hungry.
:7d_saintduke_neutral: And originally, that was all we did. But that has since changed.
:7d_saintduke_neutral: They've started taking bounties. Hiring assassins to do their dirty deeds.
:7d_saintduke_pained: It stopped being about helping people, and started being about who pays the most money for their 'jobs'.
:7d_saintduke_annoyed: Greed and corruption rule that place now. Ever since Mittens was ousted for speaking out.
:7d_ceri_scarf_concerned: Mittens...?
:7d_saintduke_sad: She was... someone I treasured deeply. Someone who...
:7d_saintduke_pained: ....
:7d_saintduke_sad: I'm sorry. It's... painful to think about. Long story short, she's no longer a part of my life.
:7d_ceri_scarf_sad: Oh, I'm sorry to hear that.
:7d_saintduke_pained: Despite what happened, I foolishly remained a loyal lapdog for the Snowhunters.
:7d_saintduke_verygentle: At least... until now.
:7d_siphon_hopeful: It's hard to give up everything you know, even if you know it's wrong.
:7d_siphon_sad: It was easier to convince people to do that with Chei around...
:7d_siphon_verygentle: ...But Ceri is a pretty good 'Chei' herself.
:7d_ceri_scarf_gentle: I do my best.
:7d_ceri_scarf_neutral: I guess the next question is, how much do they know about me?
:7d_saintduke_neutral: Like I said, we were acting on a rumor that a dragon had been sighted here.
:7d_saintduke_neutral: We get enough false positives on that front that it should be trivial to convince them there's nothing here.
:7d_ceri_scarf_concerned: Do you have any idea who gave them that rumor?
:7d_ceri_scarf_concerned: ....
:7d_ceri_scarf_angry: Adele Fonzarelli. Tell me. Was it a female galeacoma?
:7d_saintduke_concerned: I'm afraid I don't know, mistress. They didn't consider that important enough to tell me.
:7d_ceri_scarf_angry: That bitch. I knew she'd try something like this.
:7d_siphon_concerned: Are you sure? She wants Skif to make you a slave, not to kill you.
:7d_ceri_scarf_sad: ...I guess that's true. For her, I'm just some 'prize' for Skif to claim, and he can't exactly do that if I'm dead.
:7d_saintduke_determined: Worry not, my lady. I shall report that no dragon lives here, and collect what information I can.
:7d_ceri_scarf_sad: ....
:7d_siphon_verygentle: If it's too hard to trust him yet, I'll watch him for you.
:7d_ceri_scarf_sad: ...Yeah. Thanks.

:7d_saintduke_determined: I won't let you down, mistress Ceri. I shall earn back your trust ten-fold.
:7d_siphon_gentle: That's probably enough drama for one day.
:7d_ceri_scarf_gentle: Yeah, it's getting pretty late.
:7d_saintduke_smile: Farewell for now. May our next meeting be under better terms.
:7d_siphon_smile: Bye, Ceri!

We fade to black.

:7d_empty: You spend a few moments alone with your thoughts. You lift your head, taking in the silent beauty of the Cliche' Tree.
:7d_empty: There's no denying the effect it's had on you. Has it been a faithful ally, or a stoic nemesis?
:7d_empty: Only its swaying leaves know for sure.
:7d_empty: You stand up, brushing away the leaves that cover your body.
:7d_empty: Maybe it's time to say goodbye. To leave it for future generations and their heartfelt confessions.
:7d_empty: Better to do it now than to forever lose the chance as the prospect of living a normal life begins to slip away.
:7d_empty: Goodbye, Cliche' tree. May your leaves paint the schoolyard for many years.

IIRC on the final night you get bonus progress for training physical stats. Or maybe it was all stats? I didn't test very much.

>IIRC on the final night you get bonus progress for training physical stats. Or maybe it was all stats? I didn't test very much.
You do! I forgot to mention that, sorry. And yeah, it's only for physical stats. I read in an interview that this is because gaining those stats requires you to beat the hardest music minigame, and when they added the 'no audio' version near the end of development they gave that one a boost too.

They probably did that so the game didn't punish people who couldn't hear the music, but in hindsight it does mean you can get those bigger boosts for basically free, huh?

Game balance is hard.

...S-so I'm told.

Anyway. VIM got a lot of votes, so let's go ahead and train it twice!

:7d_panvarinpc_neutral: I'm no longer stressing out about my runway show!

:7d_james_smile: Notice anything?
:7d_ceri_scarf_happy: Whoa, your chest looks totally flat now! All without magic! Kharadra really is a clothing wizard!
:7d_james_smile: Yeah, you weren't kidding! That lady's a genius!
:7d_james_smile: I'm definitely gonna spread the word about her store to all my trans friends.
:7d_james_neutral: I think she cracked the ralian code with this 'monokini' thing.
:7d_ceri_scarf_thoughtful: A 'monokini'? What's that?
:7d_james_neutral: Imagine if you took a thong, but anchored it around your shoulders instead of your hips.
:7d_ceri_scarf_shocked: That can't be comfortable.
:7d_james_smile: It's not!
:7d_james_neutral: But it's not as bad as I thought it would be, either.
:7d_james_neutral: And it's the first time I've felt happy about how I look in my clothes in as long as I can remember, so I'll take that trade-off.
:7d_james_smile: Thanks a bunch, I never would've checked out her store if not for you.
:7d_ceri_scarf_happy: I'm glad I could help!

:7d_ceri_scarf_smile: Hi! Need help with another package?
:7d_malebirbnpc_neutral: Sure, if you're willing!
:7d_ceri_scarf_smile: So who are you delivering to today?
:7d_malebirbnpc_neutral: Let's see...
:7d_malebirbnpc_neutral: This is actually my last package for the week! It's for a 'Ceridwen'?
:7d_ceri_scarf_thoughtful: For me? Strange, I don't remember ordering anything.
:7d_ceri_scarf_happy: Oh! Maybe someone got me an offer-- a present! How lovely!
:7d_malebirbnpc_neutral: Oh, sorry, I misread. This says to find you because you'd know where the actual recipient is located.
:7d_ceri_scarf_defeated: Ah.
:7d_malebirbnpc_neutral: It's for a miss... Outissa? It contains a weird mushroom-looking thing, the "lover plugger for plug lovers".
:7d_ceri_scarf_neutral: Huh. Not familiar with this particular item.
:7d_ceri_scarf_smile: But yeah, if you leave this near the lake I'm sure she'll manage to find it.
:7d_malebirbnpc_neutral: Got it! Thanks for the help!

:7d_maleelnpc_neutral: Here's what I've been working on today.
:7d_maleelnpc_neutral: It's pretty hard!
:7d_maleelnpc_neutral: Honestly, I thought I was never going to learn this song...

Music: ????


A few seconds into the song, Ceri's expression changes:

:7d_ceri_scarf_eartwitch:

Hearing the song should make it obvious why. The responsible dev has gone on record saying he's not sorry.

I'd be sorry.

:7d_siphonpeek: We could make the dev be sorry.
:7d_cheipeek: By looking cute and pitiful?
:7d_siphonthink: Well if we want to go into the cute realm we could steal all the slissas.
:7d_cheisinister: Yes! We pocket the slissas until the devs meet our demands!

:7d_maleelnpc_neutral: That's about as much of it as I can play right now.
:7d_maleelnpc_neutral: So... what do you think?
:7d_ceri_scarf_defeated: (Who saw this coming? Everyone? Literally every single person? Cool.)
:7d_ceri_scarf_knowinglook: (Just be glad I didn't pop up a familiar picture while it played.)
:7d_ceri_scarf_smug: (We're more classy than that.)
:7d_ceri_scarf_stressed: (...But not classy enough to avoid playing it in the first place.)
:7d_maleelnpc_neutral: ...I don't know how to read that series of emotions you're making.
:7d_ceri_scarf_shocked: Gah! Was I making faces? Does that always happen when I think to myself!?
:7d_maleelnpc_neutral: Uh...
:7d_ceri_scarf_stressed: It uh, it makes me want to be loyal to my partners and do my best not to disappoint them?
:7d_maleelnpc_neutral: Whoa. That's an oddly specific thing for my music to make you feel.
:7d_ceri_scarf_stressed: I'm... good at finding the deeper meaning behind the notes?
:7d_ceri_scarf_lookaway: For instance, I feel like I've heard the same three notes my entire life.
:7d_maleelnpc_neutral: Ah, so you're capable of noticing motifs! Maybe you should take up guitar, eh?
:7d_ceri_scarf_gentle: Haha, maybe at some point.

:7d_maleelnpc_neutral: It'd be nice to have someone else to play with, you know?

:7d_triti_neutral: The conference today was fun in ways I didn't expect.
:7d_ceri_scarf_thoughtful: Oh?
:7d_triti_neutral: Well, I met up with the specialist and decided to go bottomless to the conference with them.
:7d_triti_neutral: Turns out a lot of the attendees were also in various states of undress.
:7d_triti_happy: The casual behavio(u)r was so extreme that it made things much less stressful.
:7d_ceri_scarf_happy: This is quickly becoming a city where you can dress as little or as much as you'd like!
:7d_ceri_scarf_smile: Must have been a huge relief.
:7d_triti_happy: It sure was! Since it's warmer here than up north, I think I might go nude for the rest of my visit!
:7d_ceri_scarf_lookaway: A winning strat.
:7d_triti_happy: There's a lot of fun to be had here if you don't mind the lack of pockets!
:7d_triti_happy: I hope I can one day be as confident as you seem to be, Ceri.

It's actually pretty hard to get a screenshot of this image without Ceri talking over it, but in this case I feel it's appropriate to keep her dialog. This is it!

:7d_ceri_scarf_concerned: Wow, I guess this is it, huh?

:7d_ceri_scarf_lookaway: The last few weeks felt like years, and then this past week felt like it all happened at once?
:7d_sheriim_happy: Haha, sometimes it really feels like that.

:7d_rufran_smile: Oh! Hello again!
:7d_rufran_smile: So. Another beautiful night, huh?
:7d_ceri_scarf_smile: Yeah, I'm especially impressed that the lamps actually light up.
:7d_rufran_neutral: What? I-I don't get what you're saying.
:7d_ceri_scarf_goodness: Ah... nevermind.

If you haven't talked to Saint Duke yet:

:7d_rufran_neutral: Anyway, it feels like something important is happening somewhere.
:7d_rufran_neutral: Maybe you should look around some more before going to bed.
:7d_ceri_scarf_neutral: ...?
:7d_rufran_smile: Just some friendly advice.

Otherwise:

:7d_rufran_neutral: I hope this night is a good one. It feels... muddy. Bittersweet.
:7d_rufran_neutral: Are you okay? You look like something's bothering you.
:7d_ceri_scarf_sad: Oh, I just... had kind of a rough conversation with someone I was close with.
:7d_rufran_neutral: Do you want to talk about it?
:7d_ceri_scarf_gentle: I think I wanna process it a bit first. Thanks, though.
:7d_rufran_gentle: Do you want a hug? Hugs make everything better.
:7d_ceri_scarf_gentle: A hug would be nice right now, yeah.

We fade to black.


:7d_ceri_scarf_happy: (He's so soft and fluffy...!)

We fade back in.

:7d_ceri_scarf_smile: Thanks, I really needed that.
:7d_rufran_smile: I hope you feel better!
:7d_ceri_scarf_neutral: Me too.
:7d_ceri_scarf_gentle: ...How about we change the subject?
:7d_ceri_scarf_gentle: What kinda music do you listen to on that thing, anyway?
:7d_rufran_neutral: ....

We fade back out.

:7d_empty: You reach out and grab his headphones as the cover of darkness ensures you won't need additional frames of animation.
:7d_empty: Thanks, darkness!
:7d_empty: You listen intently with your mighty ears, picking up the sounds of soft rock playing.
:7d_empty: The music is... gentle. Meandering and surreal.
:7d_empty: After a few moments, you hand them back and he places them back on his head.
:7d_ceri_scarf_smile: That music sounds lovely.
:7d_rufran_blushusmile: T-thanks.
:7d_ceri_scarf_gentle: A bit melancholy, though. Any reason you picked it out?
:7d_rufran_sad: Ah... my dad used to listen to this a lot. It reminds me of him.
:7d_ceri_scarf_concerned: Oh... sorry.
:7d_rufran_sad: ....
:7d_rufran_smile: My name's Rufran. What's yours?
:7d_ceri_scarf_gentle: I'm Ceridwen, but you can call me Ceri.
:7d_rufran_blushusmile: Ceri... that's a beautiful name.
:7d_rufran_blushusmile: It's fitting for such a beautiful soul.
:7d_ceri_scarf_blushu: ...!
:7d_rufran_smile: I hope to see you again soon.
:7d_ceri_scarf_blushusmile: Yeah... me too...

And with that, let's finish things off. We'll be inviting the whole gang!

:7d_ceri_scarf_smile: I'll invite all my friends! It'll be picnic 2.0!
:7d_sheriim_stressed: Hopefully with less of your 'spaghetti'.
:7d_myra_annoyed: What's wrong with my spaghetti!?
:7d_sheriim_shocked: N-no! I meant-- you know how Ceri--!
:7d_myra_happy: Hehehe! Gotcha again!
:7d_sheriim_defeated: Dangit.
:7d_myra_smile: Anyway, now that that's settled, why don't you tell us about your day?
:7d_ceri_scarf_goodness: Today was oddly dramatic for some reason.
:7d_ceri_scarf_thoughtful: Let's see...

-Daatra-

:7d_ceri_scarf_gentle: I hung out with Daatra today. We talked about the whole... you know, Zesmirl visiting and them breaking up thing.
:7d_myra_concerned: Is she doing okay?
:7d_ceri_scarf_smile: Yeah. She even seemed proud of herself being, as she put it, "All confident and shit".
:7d_sheriim_gentle: It's never easy to lose your first love.
:7d_myra_shocked: !!!!
:7d_sheriim_defeated: What's with that look?
:7d_myra_shocked: I wasn't your first!?
:7d_sheriim_defeated: Why are you so surprised by that? You had like two other boyfriends before we met, right?
:7d_myra_shocked: That's different!
:7d_sheriim_defeated: How is that different, exactly?
:7d_myra_shocked: That-- it's-- you-- but--
:7d_ceri_scarf_gentle: I clearly got my flirtatious nature from Mom, but you've never struck us as the type to seek out romance.
:7d_sheriim_smug: It's more that I only needed two tries to get it right.
:7d_sheriim_gentle: I'm a pretty good judge of character, and I didn't run into a lot of people I felt I'd be happy around.
:7d_myra_shocked: But-- but I was the one known for being picky!
:7d_sheriim_smile: Haha, you got that reputation by being as social as you are.
:7d_sheriim_grin: I wait in silence for the right target... and then I strike.
:7d_ceri_scarf_goodness: Wasn't the entire point that you didn't strike?
:7d_sheriim_smug: That's the beauty of my methods. You don't realize I'm flirting with you until it's too late.
:7d_myra_shocked: All this time...!
:7d_ceri_scarf_lookaway: We're getting a bit off-track.
:7d_sheriim_gentle: Heehee, sorry.
:7d_sheriim_smile: Knowing you, I give it a week before you have several potential suitors lined up to take Daatra's hand.
:7d_ceri_scarf_gasp: !
:7d_ceri_scarf_shocked: Y-you don't think the members of my hoard will...!?
:7d_sheriim_woe: I know that feeling well, having to compete with someone so powerful.
:7d_ceri_scarf_annoyed: T-they're my hoard! They're not allowed!
:7d_sheriim_happy: There's that dragon side of you poking its head out again.
:7d_ceri_scarf_shocked: !
:7d_ceri_scarf_stressed: Y-yes, well.
:7d_ceri_scarf_stressed: I'll... think about if and when I'll find Daatra a new boyfriend some other time.
:7d_ceri_scarf_smile: For now, how about I tell you more about my day?
:7d_myra_shocked: All this time... I never knew...
:7d_sheriim_stressed: If it helps, she wasn't even close to being as lovely as you are.
:7d_myra_smug: Obviously.
:7d_ceri_scarf_goodness: Aaaand she's back.
:7d_ceri_scarf_thoughtful: Now then. Let's see...

-Gulketi-

:7d_ceri_scarf_smile: Oh! I spent some time with Gulketi!
:7d_ceri_scarf_gentle: For a while there, I was convinced something was bothering him that he was being cagey about.
:7d_ceri_scarf_goodness: But it turns out he's just Like That.
:7d_sheriim_blushu: He's small and fluffy is what he is.
:7d_ceri_scarf_goodness: ...I might have to show you two something later, if your hearts can handle it.
:7d_myra_siphon: Oh~! How mysterious!
:7d_sheriim_defeated: I'm not sure how many more 'surprises' I can handle.
:7d_myra_gentle: Maybe it's a good surprise!
:7d_ceri_scarf_stressed: It's... an interesting surprise?
:7d_ceri_scarf_smile: I might have mentioned it before, but the small fluffy guy isn't Gulketi's true form.
:7d_sheriim_shocked: Wait! Are... are you saying he's not small and fluffy!?
:7d_ceri_scarf_lookaway: He's not either of those things, not even a little bit.
:7d_sheriim_veryshocked: No! This can't be! I won't believe it!
:7d_myra_stressed: You might want to give him a moment, dear.
:7d_myra_smile: So nothing was actually bugging him in the end, then?
:7d_ceri_scarf_gentle: Yeah. He actually seems to be in pretty high spirits.
:7d_sheriim_sillysad: BRING BACK THE FLUFFY.
:7d_ceri_scarf_stressed: Y-you'll still mostly see him as a ketza! It'll be fine, Dad!
:7d_myra_gentle: He'll probably survive.
:7d_ceri_scarf_shocked: Probably??
:7d_myra_smile: But I'm glad to hear he's doing well. He seems like a nice guy.
:7d_ceri_scarf_smile: Yeah, me too.
:7d_myra_smile: Anything else you did today?
:7d_sheriim_sillysad: ....
:7d_ceri_scarf_shocked: I-I'm not sure we can move on yet!
:7d_sheriim_sillysad: Think of the fluff... think of the fluff...
:7d_sheriim_happy: I'm okay now.
:7d_ceri_scarf_goodness: You and Daatra would have a lot to talk about, it seems.
:7d_ceri_scarf_thoughtful: Anyway, what else did I do today...

-Skif-

:7d_ceri_scarf_gentle: I spent some more time with Skif today.
:7d_sheriim_gentle: He's not still upset about what happened when you sparred with him, is he?
:7d_ceri_scarf_gentle: No, I think we're on the same page there.
:7d_ceri_scarf_verygentle: In fact, the experience has made us closer than ever.
:7d_myra_siphon: How was the make-up sex?
:7d_sheriim_veryshocked: Myra!!!
:7d_ceri_scarf_blushuwat: WHY IS THAT THE FIRST THING YOU ASK???
:7d_myra_siphon: It was really good, huh~?
:7d_ceri_scarf_blushu: We might not have even done that for all you know...!
:7d_sheriim_shocked: Yeah maybe they didn't do anything!
:7d_myra_defeated: You expect me to buy that after the multiple things you've confessed to us in your panicked ramblings?
:7d_ceri_scarf_blushu: T-that-- I--
:7d_ceri_scarf_moreblushu: okay fine it was amazing and romantic and oh gods it felt so good skif really figured out what he's doing and saw to my every need in a way he hasn't done before and I love him so much okay are you happy now
:7d_myra_happy: That's my girl!
:7d_sheriim_defeated: I don't know if I'm okay with how okay I'm starting to feel about all this.
:7d_myra_grin: The sooner you two adjust, the sooner I can brag to Ceri about my techniques.
:7d_ceri_scarf_shocked: H-hang on now!
:7d_ceri_scarf_shocked: ....
:7d_ceri_scarf_wat: I don't know if I'm okay with how okay I'm starting to feel knowing this stuff about you two.
:7d_sheriim_veryshocked: RIGHT!?
:7d_ceri_scarf_lookaway: In that case... maybe I'll think about asking you for some ...tips... at some point.
:7d_myra_smug: I have much to teach you, young one.
:7d_ceri_scarf_stressed: F-for now, let's see what else I did today, hmm?
:7d_ceri_scarf_thoughtful: Let's see...

-Outissa-

:7d_ceri_scarf_blushusmile: I um, I took Outissa out on a date.
:7d_sheriim_happy: Aww, how sweet!
:7d_myra_smile: How'd it go?
:7d_ceri_scarf_blushusmile: Really well. We connected on a deep level.
:7d_ceri_scarf_blushusmile: I feel silly holding back my feelings for so long.
:7d_myra_happy: That's great, dear! Another person for your Hoard of Dragon Romance!
:7d_sheriim_stressed: Should we really be encouraging this behavio(u)r?
:7d_myra_gentle: If this is what makes Ceri happy, then we should support her.
:7d_sheriim_stressed: I guess that's true...
:7d_sheriim_happy: Good job adding another body to your concerningly large hoard!
:7d_myra_stressed: ...We'll work on it.
:7d_ceri_scarf_stressed: Thanks for trying, Dad.
:7d_ceri_scarf_verygentle: But yeah, she's such a sweet and kind girl. In a way, I kind of understand how Skif feels now.
:7d_ceri_scarf_verygentle: I just... want to be her knight and protect her. To hold her close and never let go.
:7d_myra_happy: Be sure to invite her to dinner sometime! We have to get to know her better!
:7d_ceri_scarf_goodness: Maybe once Eezeryh works out some of the kinks in her translator device.
:7d_sheriim_smile: For now, is there anything else you did today?

-Saint Duke-

:7d_ceri_scarf_sad: I saw Saint Duke, and...
:7d_ceri_scarf_sad: ....
:7d_sheriim_concerned: Did something happen?
:7d_ceri_scarf_sad: I...
:7d_sheriim_annoyed: That's it-- where's my shotgun? I swear, if he did something to you...
:7d_myra_annoyed: And I'll bring an actual weapon, like my fists.
:7d_ceri_scarf_sad: Please don't. Look, I...
:7d_empty: You sigh, and explain what happened to them.
:7d_ceri_scarf_angry: Damn it. I can't believe we let our guard down!
:7d_myra_angry: If anyone dares lay a finger on you...
:7d_ceri_scarf_sad: You know I appreciate you two having my back, but...
:7d_ceri_scarf_sad: For the moment, it at least seems like it might be fine.
:7d_sheriim_annoyed: You're really going to take him at his word that he'll tell them it was a false alarm?
:7d_ceri_scarf_sad: I know it sounds naive of me to trust someone who just revealed they'd been keeping things from me...
:7d_ceri_scarf_concerned: ...But what kind of dragon would I be if I didn't give him a chance to redeem himself?
:7d_myra_annoyed: A smart dragon.
:7d_sheriim_annoyed: ....
:7d_sheriim_sad: ...Oh, babygirl. I know how hard it is to forgive someone. I just hope you don't regret that kindness one day.
:7d_ceri_scarf_sad: Yeah, me too.
:7d_myra_annoyed: Now, I don't want to say 'I told you so' about trusting everyone so readily, but...
:7d_ceri_scarf_sad: ....
:7d_myra_sad: ....
:7d_myra_verygentle: Look, it'll be okay. You're not alone, remember?
:7d_sheriim_verygentle: Yeah. You have us, and Daatra and Skif. And your new friends, too.
:7d_ceri_scarf_sad: It did help that Siphon was there. She offered to keep an eye on him, too.
:7d_myra_gentle: See? At times like these, you need to remind yourself of all the good surrounding you.
:7d_myra_gentle: For every bad actor, there's hundreds of unsung heroes trying to do right by everything.
:7d_ceri_scarf_verygentle: Yeah... I know.
:7d_ceri_scarf_sad: It's just a lot to take in. I want to believe that he really has switched to my side, but...
:7d_sheriim_gentle: Don't feel guilty for protecting yourself, babygirl. It'd be foolish to believe him again immediately.
:7d_sheriim_gentle: Time will reveal if he's truly sincere, or if he has ulterior motives.
:7d_myra_smug: If he does, he has my fists to contend with.
:7d_ceri_scarf_gentle: Thanks, you two. For now, I'll just... give it some time, and see how it goes.
:7d_ceri_scarf_verygentle: I guess it's good that I'm able to charm someone out of killing me, huh?
:7d_ceri_scarf_verygentle: Maybe I'd even be able to talk down a dragon.
:7d_myra_smile: Like mother, like daughter!
:7d_sheriim_stressed: Just don't try to talk to any dragons without Mr. Ilan around.
:7d_ceri_scarf_gentle: Yeah.
:7d_ceri_scarf_thoughtful: Speaking of which, he's coming back soon, huh?
:7d_ceri_scarf_gentle: It'll be nice to not have to worry about my seal all the time.
:7d_empty: Your D-WINGS glimmer gently, a somber reminder of how close you've come to losing everything.
:7d_empty: You spend the rest of your time bleeding D-ENERGY in silence, your parents rubbing your back encouragingly.
:7d_empty: ....
:7d_ceri_scarf_smile: Okay, that should be enough for now.
:7d_ceri_scarf_gentle: Mom, Dad... thanks for everything.
:7d_ceri_scarf_blushusmile: For spending so much time with me, for always being there for me.
:7d_ceri_scarf_concerned: Especially knowing I might one day lose... myself.
:7d_myra_gentle: You'll never lose yourself with us around, sweety.
:7d_sheriim_gentle: No matter what happens, we'll find a way to bring you back.
:7d_sheriim_smug: In fact...
:7d_myra_siphon: Oh~! Is it time to do the thing~?
:7d_ceri_scarf_shocked: Thing? What thing???

:7d_myra_grin: Put your faith in us, darling child!
:7d_sheriim_grin: Yeah!
:7d_myra_grin: We won't let anyone or anything come between us!
:7d_sheriim_grin: Not dragons, not dragon-riders, not even a Ceri struggling for control!
:7d_myra_grin: We'd dive into the pits of hell for you. Travel across the driest of deserts...
:7d_sheriim_grin: ...or the deepest of oceans!
:7d_myra_grin: Any dragon that threatens you will meet my fist with their face.
:7d_sheriim_grin: Or the barrels of my shotgun.
:7d_myra_grin: Even dragon scales can't stand up to bullets powered by parental love!
:7d_sheriim_grin: Heheheee. Fear us, dragons, for we are loving parents!
:7d_myra_grin: Nothing will come between us and giving you a happy and peaceful life!
:7d_sheriim_grin: Hmph, Ilan worries about you losing control? Fuck that!
:7d_myra_grin: Even a berserk Ceri will know better than to piss us off!
:7d_sheriim_grin: The dragon inside you will have no choice but to bring you back to us!
:7d_myra_grin: So don't worry about the future, or what will happen...
:7d_sheriim_grin: ...Because you'll always have a safe and loving home to return to!
:7d_ceri_scarf_blushusmile: Heehee, you two are really fired up.
:7d_myra_happy: We've made it this far, haven't we?
:7d_myra_grin: Hear that, Ceri's inner dragon? We'll be coming for you!
:7d_sheriim_grin: So make your peace while you still can!
:7d_ceri_scarf_blushusmile: You guys are such goobers.
:7d_ceri_scarf_gentle: But you're right. Even if my dragon-self gains control...
:7d_ceri_scarf_happy: ...You'll be my guiding light in a maze of darkness.
:7d_ceri_scarf_verygentle: Maybe we really can win this.
:7d_myra_smile: We'll definitely win this. You'll see-- Dragon's Day will go great.
:7d_sheriim_smile: And then Mr. Ilan will return, and we'll make sure he does right by you.
:7d_ceri_scarf_smile: And even if things don't go well...
:7d_myra_smile: ...We'll be there to make it better.
:7d_sheriim_smile: No matter what.
:7d_ceri_scarf_sillysad: Mom... Dad... I love you both so much...!
:7d_myra_verygentle: Aww, come here, sweety.
