Mun is starting to look at some games...

[edgar_roni]

So, you're finally looking to take the plunge, are you? And here I was starting to enjoy being a free agent...

My feelings on personal freedom aside, are you sure about this?

[edgar_roni]

Silly? I was being dead serious. But I'll take care, only because you said so.

[ethereal_earth]

[A shake of the head. Edgar why are you always so confusing and impossible.]

If that's what it takes for you to be safe and take care of yourself.

[edgar_roni]

[Admit it: you wouldn't have him any other way.]

I will. But only if you'll promise me one thing?

[ethereal_earth]

[Of course not. That would be boring.

A pause, then a bit hesitantly...]

What is that?

[edgar_roni]

That you do the same? It's only fair for you to uphold your end of the bargain.

[ethereal_earth]

I'll do my best.

Though with where my mun is sending me, that may be difficult at times...

[edgar_roni]

Mm. I hear your mun is sending you to where Locke, Celes, and the bridestealer are headed?

[ethereal_earth]

She is, yes.

Ah... the bridestealer? Do you mean Setzer?

[edgar_roni]

That would be the one. Do you know of any others?

[If so, he was going to have to make some...arrangements.]

[ethereal_earth]

...Not that I know of.

You know, you could come along with us. It isn't the nicest place and I don't think it will be safe, but... at least we'd be together.

[edgar_roni]

Not a nice place and not safe. How tempting. Sign me up.

[ethereal_earth]

You're right. That was silly of me, wasn't it?

I'm sorry.

[edgar_roni]

Oh, come now. It was a minor joke.

[His hand comes down on her shoulder.]

There's nothing to be sorry for, dear heart.

[ethereal_earth]

No, there is. I shouldn't ask you to come with us, not when we're going to such a frightening place. I'm worried about Locke and Celes and Setzer too...
