Ah, um...

Lorenz

Hm? What is it, Marianne?

Marianne
volume_up

I'm curious why you've been eating your meals near me as of late...
link
Marianne
volume_up

I'm not much for conversation...
link
Marianne
volume_up

I'm always at a loss for words...and I never know how to respond to questions.

Lorenz

It's true that there are some who prefer a lively dinner table. But I prefer to eat in peace.

Lorenz
volume_up

With you, my meals are a relaxing experience. In fact, you are the most peaceful dining companion I've ever had.

Marianne

R-really?
link
Lorenz
volume_up

There is a real grace and fluidity to your every movement. I greatly appreciate refined table manners.
link
Lorenz
volume_up

Observing you all this time, I believe I've realized what is so striking about you.
link
Lorenz
volume_up

Your beauty comes from the heart. It is an inner beauty.
link
Lorenz
volume_up

It is not some flamboyant pageantry, a product of external adornment or grooming.
link
Lorenz
volume_up

When I first noticed it, I thought that it could use some refinement. A little polish.
link
Lorenz
volume_up

But I was mistaken. You are perfect in your natural state. Just as you are.
link
Marianne
volume_up

You think I'm beautiful...just the way I am?
link
Lorenz
volume_up

Certainly. To add a superficial luster on top of what you already possess would be offensively redundant.
link
Marianne
volume_up

No one's ever said anything like that to me before...
link
Lorenz
volume_up

Alas, I am the only one with eyes.
link
Lorenz
volume_up

But perhaps it is for the best that your beauty not be revealed to all the world.
link
Lorenz
volume_up

Yes, it is certainly better that only I, Lorenz Hellman Gloucester, can appreciate your true magnificence!
link
Lorenz
volume_up

And on that note, I bid you farewell!

Lorenz leaves the scene

Marianne

What a strange person... But being called beautiful just the way I am?
link
Marianne
volume_up

That was nice to hear.
