Do you think you deserve to be loved?

What makes you worthy of it?

Well that's alright. I already know you're kind to people.

And you're definitely one of the people I want to make happy.

You . . . want to make me happy?

Of course! You're a very dear friend of mine.

Come on, don't tell me I haven't made you happy already. I'm pretty sure I caught a smile while we were sparring!

That was different!

Hey, I'll welcome your happiness even if it's because you're being smug. We should spar some more.

I would not mind another session with you.

Want to meet up right now? Correct me if I'm wrong, but it sounds like you could use some distraction. Nothing beats emptying the mind with a vigorous workout!

I wouldn't mind that. Tell me where and I'll come over to win at sparring.

Oh yeah? Pretty sure I won last time, so that makes me more likely to win.

We'll see about that.

Want to make a wager?

Why not?

I am listening.

Oh. I didn't think that far ahead. Maybe you could help me with a tough quest?

You could ask that of me without the wager. Is that what you want?

Gee, this is hard. I mostly just want to work out with you, but we do that already. ...What would you want from me?

[ hm. ]

What do you do with your friends? Besides sparring and exercise.

Honestly, there's not much I do besides working out! Lots of activities turn into exercise challenges for me, like when I was digging wells for water. ...But, I like spending time around flowers, and it's nice when people join me. And I like to have tea and play music, and go on horseback rides... all of those are great with friends.

So why can't we do one of those?

Hmm... horseback riding maybe?

Wait, I have an idea! Could you take me flying in your dragon form? Is there a way we could do it so it's not like wyvern-riding? Maybe if you clutch me in your powerful talons...

You want me to carry you in my claws while we fly??

Yes!!!

If I win in our match, that is.

[ alfred truly is the most bizarre person he knows. ]

Fine. And if I win, we'll have tea.

Okay, you could ask me for something more strenuous, but if that's what you want.

Asking for something strenuous from you defeats the point.

Ah, I see! Making me do something relaxing. Fair enough. So no weighted teacups I assume.
