Dorothea & Petra A

Dorothea
Oh, Petra, are you researching something?

Petra
Yes. I am investigating useful fighting techniques.

Dorothea
You're always trying to become a better fighter. Personally, I'm sick of all the battles.

Petra
You are...feeling sick about battle? Ah! I understand. Yes, I am also wishing for this war to finish quickly.

Dorothea
Sooner the better. Ugh, I don't even remember the last time I washed my hair.

Petra
Yes, it is hard to be braiding your hair when it is damaged from lack of care.

Dorothea
Speaking of... You know, I don't think I've seen many braids like yours, Petra.

Dorothea
I assume it's a hairstyle from Brigid? May I take a closer look?

Petra
You may. This style of braiding has been passing... has been passed down through my family.

Dorothea
How very elaborate! That must take a long time to do.

Petra
Your words are delighting me. Braiding it does take up a great amount of time every day.

Dorothea
Every day? No, I suppose you couldn't sleep with your hair like that, could you?

Dorothea
When there's time, do you think you could teach me? It would be fun to match you every now and then!

Dorothea
And once I learn how, I can help you with your hair. What do you think?

Petra
I am really liking that idea. It would give me great happiness to have our hair match.

Dorothea
Haha, I'd like it too!

Petra
Dorothea... Before, I had confusion. I thought you were being overly familiar.

Petra
But then I gained understanding. Now I am knowing that is how you show your kindness, and I have much gratitude for that.

Petra
It is impossible to be imagining life without you. You are...precious to me.

Dorothea
Petra... What a lovely thing to say.

Dorothea
I might just cry...

Petra
If you will be crying, you can have my... Ah! My shoulder. For your crying.

Dorothea
Oh, I was just playing around.

Dorothea
But...if I ever do need a good cry, I do hope you'll lend me your shoulder.

Petra
My shoulder will always be available for you.

Dorothea
Oh, yeah? So, I don't even need to make a reservation or anything?

Petra
A reservation? For...my shoulder?

Dorothea
Oh, I just meant... You know what? It doesn't matter.

Dorothea
What matters is that I enjoy spending time with you. It makes me stop worrying about marriage and status.

Petra
If that is the truth, then will you be coming to Brigid with me?

Dorothea
Huh?

Petra
When this war is finished, I am wishing for you to be seeing my homeland.

Dorothea
You...you are? Oh my.

Dorothea
I'd love to, Petra. As soon as the fighting is done, I'd like nothing more than to see Brigid with you.
