Finished Bravely Default and mun is in pain

Well, this is hardly fair!

Firstly, I realize I'm from a game, and secondly, you take no time to decide you're going to have me from a canon point where we're still ignorant of even Ringabel's identity, much less Ouroboros and Airy! For what reason? Nothing more but your own satisfaction at 'extensive character development'? Not to mention the kind of places you're thinking of sending me to!

Ones of crime, murder and chaos... what you're doing with me and all your others is nothing more than torture, base and cruel!

[Her hands are clenched, and teeth gnashing like sandpaper.] Mrgrgr...! My blood is boiling just from the thought that people like you exist! If you're going to deport me out of nowhere, have the decency to send me somewhere I'd consider a break!

[Huff huff.]

Why of course Agnes, I was just considering my attire; specifically how plain it usually is, and that I might fancy a change.

What do you think?

[ringabel pls]

...I think you're just fine how you are, Tiz. Changing yourself and your tastes just to look more flashy sounds more like something Ringabel would have the audacity to pull.

What a coincidence you should mention him! It was he who I had in mind when I started thinking of it.

Perhaps something raw and vibrant in a similar style to the Red Mage outfit would work.

That's even worse! You should never change yourself just because you admire someone. Especially not when that person is someone as deadbeat as Ringabel.

Anyway, red isn't your color.

Ah, of course, of course - perhaps something a little more down to earth, like a nice brown jacket instead.

It may serve better to accent the natural plainness than try to hide it. A choice that could only have come from your suggestion, Agnes!

I would appreciate if you stopped using the word 'plain'! It sounds almost like an insult.

[AHEM] I don't want you to look down on yourself, Tiz. After all, you are a... dear friend to me. [bleeeeh that was physically painful to say.]

Nonsense! It's all about context - and plainness has a charm in itself that is inaccessible to those of a more energetic demeanor, much like Ringabel and Edea.

And while I'd use plain to describe your own style as well, I'd hate for you to think I'd ever mean it disparagingly. You know I find you just as endearing as any other.

[At least he means it genuinely.

Even if it's still Ringabel.]

...That does make sense, if you say it that way.

[Hey, she thinks over and smiles at that! It's a start, okay.] That is pretty nice of you to say. Thank you very much. I didn't think you were so knowledgeable about such things, Tiz. But... what do you mean by 'endearing'?

[She's still attempting to keep up the act.]

Ah, my apologies Agnes, but my farmboy upbringing prevents me from eloquently expressing any genuine feelings I harbor for you.

Please excuse me while I attempt to think of a way I can deflect the subject of "what traits of yours do I find endearing"...although, I'd imagine in truth the answer is "all of them".

If only I weren't such a shy mess around pretty girls.

[The Ringabel Effect™

You say something half decent and then completely ruin it the next time you open your mouth.]

[seriously ringabel

every damn time- after the Red Mage, and countless times in Florem generally

Ringabel]

Alright, that's it, Ringabel! I can't take any more of this!

We need to think of a different plan.

[A pout, accompanied by an exaggerated, dramatic sigh.]

And I was finally starting to have fun.

Oh well.

[Ringabel your definition of fun is really...

...moving on, though]

So, enough about me, though- what is your player planning to do with you, Ringabel? If we know enough about them, we could plan a counterattack.

I'm afraid there's very little to be said; meeting you here is the only use out of me he's gotten. It really is quite a shame.

But from what you've said, should I take it as a blessing in disguise? Crimes, chaos and murder doesn't sound too appealing.

...Just to meet me?

[That's both slightly flattering and kinda creepy to her.] It probably is. She's looking at this... Hunger Games thing, along with something called 'The Box'. Who knew so many sinister things could tie in with a name so simple...

So, unending horror or fighting for your life. They both sound simply charming.

[But...]

Still, considering this is you we're talking about, I'm certain neither will pose much threat. I'd be much more intimidated by your temper than any terror they could bring up.

[Which is his roundabout way of saying he's just a bit worried for her.

She's capable but.

Still.

Either option sounds terrible, neither of which she deserves. None of them do, in fact.]

[Funny thing is, Edea is actually pretty capable of reading people's emotions and thoughts. All their little hand gestures and facial expressions, especially from people she knew, like Kamiizumi.

Funny thing also is, this is Ringabel, and Ringabel tends to be notoriously hard to read under all that skirt-chasing glamor.]

Excuse me? Do you mean I can compare to those horrors because of my temper?!

[Okay okay, on second thought, she might be able to decipher what he means. Kind of.] ...Whatever. I'll be fine. And I especially don't need any hero coming to save me this time, because they'll getting into danger too, got it?!

[Which in turn, is her own way of telling him to stay safe.]

Perish the thought! With any luck you won't be going anywhere; that way noone will get ideas about sending me anywhere either.

It will completely negate the need for saving of any kind.

Luck that I don't have.

[Sigh.]

Ugh, so wherever I'm going you might follow? That just gives me a bigger headache.

As straightforward as always.

But you know, some say absence makes the heart grow fonder. Perhaps some time away would make you realize just how lonely it is without me around.

[SHE'S THIS CLOSE TO BREAKING YOUR FACE, RINGABEL.]

Right now, I'm missing the absence of your absence! Don't even think I'll fall head-over-heels for you, or something nearly that ridiculous!

[just. shove the whole 'alternis dim' thing under the rug for now okay]

[Any sane person would know this is definitely the time to drop it.]

No, no, perhaps this is exactly what we need - a little break from each other.

It will make our reunion all the more touching...and I'm awfully fond of touching reunions.

[so many Ringabels to punch in the face, so little time]

Don't even think about it! [Ouch, that whack has to hurt. She's had enough of reunions, especially after her father.]

[u-ugh oh god, face punching. YEAH SAW THAT COMING.

Worth it though.]

N-noted! I shan't think of leaving your side ever again, my dear.

[RINGABEL DONT U KNOW WHEN TO JUST DROP IT, JESUS CHRIST.]

[...Ringabel pls]

Excuse me?! You just don't know when to quit, do you?! I've half the mind to hit you twice more, Ringabel!

Kidding! I'm kidding.

[Still, he figures it's better if she can direct her frustration towards him instead of having nothing to take it out on otherwise, considering she can't punch through the 4th wall.]

I shall maintain a comfortable distance from here on out; close enough to talk to, yet out of punching distance, as I always do.
