Annette, Lysithea enter the scene

Annette

Hi hi, Lysithea! When are you going to teach me magic? Is now good?

Lysithea

Why do I have to?

Annette

Why? Because you're way better at it than me, silly!

Lysithea

Is that so. I thought you were something of an honors student at the school of sorcery?

Annette

Well, sure... But I wouldn't say I've got any kind of natural talent for it.

Annette

I'm going to have to try very hard to become as good of a mage as you are!

Lysithea

What is that supposed to mean? Are you implying that I don't work hard too?

Lysithea

If you think my skills are inherent, you are sorely mistaken.

Annette

No! I wasn't saying that at all! Everyone knows how hard you work.

Annette

I just meant that if I want to be as good as you, I'll have to work really, incredibly hard!

Lysithea

Hm. And what is it you want to learn about?

Annette

Oh! So you'll teach me?! Thank you so much! Um, actually...

Annette

Oh, I get it now! I never thought about it that way before!

Lysithea

Look at how quickly you're picking this up. You're clearly very skilled already.

Annette

Don't be silly. You're just that good of a teacher!

Annette

Your way of looking at the world is so fundamentally different from mine.

Lysithea

Do you insist on taking the conversation in that direction?

Annette

Oh no, I'm sorry! I wasn't doing that! There I go, saying the wrong thing again.

Lysithea

It's fine. Let's just drop it.

Lysithea

A bit more self-confidence would go a long way for you, Annette.

Annette

Huh?

Lysithea

That's all I've got for you today. I need to get going now. Lots to do.

Annette

Oh, I'm so sorry to take up your time! Thanks again for teaching me!
