Reviews! Yay! Here are MYreplies:

Icey Lullaby- I will make some more... don't stalk me...-whimpers-

Wandering Cat- I don't know. Basically, Eirika is sort of the only character I imagined with that book, and...She's my favorite character! (Besides Marisa)

Ayumi187- Well, there's gonna be a lot of innits here, so um...never mind.

I'm a weirdo, blame me.

Chapter 3!

I remember...

" Hello, Marisa."

"Chief."

"How're you doing? Your sword still sharp?"

"Same as always."

"You're not seriously injured or ill, are you?"

"No."

"I see. So you can continue on?"

"Yes. Why all the questions?"

"Oh. I'm the commander, you know? I'm supposed to check on you now and then. Well, see you later."

"Wait."

"Hm?"

"I'd like you to keep talking. I don't mind talking to you."

"You know, we've known each other for a long time, so I understand you... But listen, Marisa, it wouldn't hurt you to be a bit more sociable. Not for me, mind you, but some of the others have a hard time working with you."

"..."

"Speaking of which, when I first met you, you were always working alone. I remember thinking how odd that was. I figured a woman as beautiful and talented as you would have men all around her."

" Don't need 'em."

"You see, that's what I'm talking about! Your beauty belies your words."

"Chief?"

"Hm?"

"Do you like sociable women?"

"Um... sure, I guess. I mean, doesn't everyone? If you go to an inn, aren't the sociable gals the most popular?"

"I understand. Ok. I'll be more sociable. This better?"

"Huh?'

---------------

"And, that was our first conversation."

"I can imagine."

"Shut up, Redhead."

"My name's not Redhead!"

"Wow, princes shout?"

"..."

"Better. The next conversation was like this..."

-------------------------

"Say, Marisa".

"Hello."

"Listen, you've been acting a bit odd lately. You don't talk to me as much as you used to."

"... I'm practicing."

"Practicing? Practicing for what?"

"Being sociable."

"Oh... Because it's you, I'm going to assume that you're serious. You know what I said before? I wasn't really serious, so don't worry about it."

"But. I've practiced. I'm a bit more sociable."

"In what way? You don't appear to have changed at all,"

"You're wrong. Let me show you."

"What? You're going to be sociable? This I've got to see. Well, go ahead".

"You won't laugh, will you?"

"No, I won't laugh."

"Truly?"

"Yes, I promise."

"Here goes... Hello, Gerik! Wonderful day for a battle, innit?"

" ..."

"Why are you looking away?"

"N-n-no... reason... Mmha... Bwa ha ha ha ha!"

"Crap!"

-------------------

"I understand why Gerik laughed."

"Oh look, I see a stone! And you are on a tree! And the healers are gone!"

"Come on, we can talk it over...Don't hurt me!"

"Redhead crybaby."

"Waaaaaaaah! Mommy! "

Tune in for the next chapter!
