Constance & Jeritza C

Constance
Well, well... Look who it is.

Constance
Emile?! It is you, isn't it? Are you feeling more talkative than when I saw you last?

Jeritza
Do not call me that.

Constance
Oh, look at you. From professor at the Officers Academy to an Imperial general...

Constance
Though you seem idle enough now. Might you spare a moment for a proper apology?

Jeritza
...

Constance
Could you not have even informed me when dear Mercedes left House Bartels?

Constance
To say nothing of the scandal you caused...

Constance
Granted, I can hardly blame you, that family being what it was.

Constance
But did it never occur to you that I ought to have been consulted?!

Constance
We've only known each other since childhood! Such callousness! Such rank insensitivity!

Constance
Emile! Are you listening?!

Jeritza
...

Constance
You think you can escape? Ahaha! I won't be denied this time.

Constance
You may think yourself skilled with a blade, but remember that my spellwork is peerless.

Constance
Dealing with you would be no more than a murmured word and a flick of a finger.

Jeritza
...

Jeritza
Restrain yourself, Constance.

Constance
I am the model of restraint. On the contrary, Emile, it is you who insists on being so—

Jeritza
I said not to call me that.

Constance
You know I've not slipped from using General Jeritza in public. And this is the thanks I get?

Constance
Ugh. You've always been the sort to keep your own counsel and let others draw their own conclusions.

Jeritza
Would it kill you to be silent for once?

Constance
Emile, stop! This isn't over!
