Professor, you're late.

To tell the truth, it was an act of sheer hope that I might find you here.

True, but a young man can hope to accidentally bump into someone.

My apologies, Professor. It was a bit of a joke.

I've been waiting here because I thought you might come by.

I'm glad to find I was right.

I hoped to find you so I might ask... Well, I would very much like to research your Crest.

Does that mean you might be interested eventually?

Let's decide the place and time right now, then. What? Is that not acceptable?
link
Linhardt

Because it would be terribly interesting?

Anyway... Have you heard the legend of this place, Professor? It's a sentimental one to be sure.

The story goes that if two people share a vow at the Goddess Tower, they'll be bound together forever.

Hm, or was it that they'll be cursed forever? One or the other for certain.

Linhardt

All the same, I think it's a rather lovely legend.

Linhardt

Well, I suppose it does depend on your enjoyment of potentially mistranslated myths.

Professor, be warned. This may seem forward of me...

However, let's vow that one day I will be allowed to research your Crest as much as I please.

Linhardt

I've overstepped my bounds again, haven't I?

Linhardt

It's just that today is such a special day and, well, I suppose I got caught up in all the excitement.
link
Linhardt

How about this instead? Let's agree to meet here again one day, just the two of us.
link
Linhardt

Such an opportunity won't just arise, we have to make it happen for ourselves. I look forward to that day.
