Dorothea, Hanneman enter the scene

Dorothea, my dear, you must be tired from the extended fighting. May I get you anything?

Thank you, Professor Hanneman, but I'm fine.

You don't appear fine. Make sure not to overexert yourself.

The war is not yours alone to fight. You have friends to rely on. We are here for you, always.

Thank you, but I really am fine.

It's nice to know you're always thinking of me though.

Well, of course. You're like a...

Like a what?

N-nothing... You're a very good friend. That's all.

And once the war is over, I want to be sure you have a pleasant life.

Is that so?

It sounds like you're getting a little ahead of yourself, planning for the end of the war.

Ahead of myself? No, I don't think so.

Oh? You sounded like you were building up the courage to give me something.

Something, um, small and round and ring-shaped?

Huh?

A ring you mean? Well, I...

Oh no. Am I wrong?

I'm so embarrassed. I misunderstood...

Oh my! That's what you were thinking!

I've misled you. I see now I phrased things all... Just all wrong.

I had no other intentions, I swear. I'm sorry. Please forgive me.

I could forgive you...if you proposed properly.

You got me excited, you know.

I... But I haven't...

It's OK. I'm just teasing. Don't look so scared.

Teasing. Ah. Well, of course.

It's nice just to know you care about me...

Maybe we should talk more about the future...in the future. How's that sound?

Why, it sounds lovely. Quite lovely.
