Marianne?

Marianne

Oh. Yes?

Dimitri
volume_up

May I sit here? There isn't another open spot...
link
Marianne
volume_up

Um, you may.
link
Marianne, Dimitri enter the scene
link
Dimitri
volume_up

I'm sorry... I should have eaten in my quarters. I know you asked me to stay away from you.
link
Marianne
volume_up

No, it's fine.
link
Marianne
volume_up

About the other day, when you said you didn't regret risking your own life...
link
Dimitri
volume_up

I apologize for whatever foolish thing I said to upset you, truly. But...may I ask what happened?
link
Marianne
volume_up

It's just... There is only misfortune for anyone who comes near me.
link
Dimitri
volume_up

Misfortune?
link
Marianne
volume_up

I'm afraid so.
link
Marianne
volume_up

Especially those with complete disregard for their own safety.
link
Dimitri
volume_up

Ah, so I didn't offend you. You're trying to tell me I should be more concerned for my own safety. Well, I suppose I could improve in that regard.
link
Dimitri
volume_up

As for you causing misfortune, I think that's far from the truth. In fact, I find you to be a lucky charm of sorts.
link
Marianne
volume_up

Me? Lucky? I'm sorry, but I don't agree with that at all.
link
Marianne
volume_up

My entire life up until this point has been nothing but a string of unfortunate events.
link
Dimitri
volume_up

But misfortune finds us all. Perhaps those around you have suffered or even perished, but look at you. You're still here, alive and well.
link
Marianne
volume_up

That's...
link
Dimitri
volume_up

It doesn't feel good, does it...to be the one left behind? You feel guilt for not dying along with the others.
link
Marianne
volume_up

H-how did you know?
link
Dimitri
volume_up

You and I are the same.
link
Dimitri
volume_up

Maybe you should fear being cursed with misfortune for coming near me.
link
Marianne
volume_up

Hehe.
link
Dimitri
volume_up

Ah, a smile and a laugh. Coming from you, that's a rarity. This must be my lucky day.
link
Marianne
volume_up

I just find the idea amusing.
link
Marianne
volume_up

It's strange to think that someone like you could have anything in common with me.
link
Dimitri
volume_up

Is it so terrible a thought?
link
Marianne
volume_up

No, no. It's not that. It actually makes me happy.
link
Marianne
volume_up

As though there's finally someone who understands how I truly feel...
