Leonie & Shamir B

Shamir
I heard what you did. I'm disappointed, Leonie.

Leonie
Um, hi, Shamir. What have you heard, exactly?

Shamir
You aimed your bow at a group of students passing through the monastery. Was this your idiotic idea of training?

Shamir
I told you to be cautious.

Leonie
I'm sorry! Idiotic's a bit harsh though, isn't it?

Shamir
What were you planning on doing after you took aim? Shooting passersby? Of course not.

Shamir
If you want to train, choose a target you can actually shoot.

Leonie
I know. Everyone was pretty mad. I really am sorry.

Shamir
Nobody's happy to have a bow pointed at them.

Leonie
My mentor used to do that kind of thing a lot.

Shamir
Mentor? Was that Jeralt?

Shamir
I don't know much about him. Would he really do that?

Leonie
Would and did. Mostly when he was drunk though.

Shamir
Not a good habit to emulate.

Shamir
From now on, only aim at bugs. Like I showed you.

Leonie
But, um, I don't...really like bugs.

Shamir
You don't like bugs? That should make you want to aim at them even more.

Leonie
I just can't look at them. Seeing all the extra legs, and things. Ugh! Makes my skin crawl.

Shamir
Then just draw some spiders and hang them on the walls.

Shamir
Aim at the drawings whenever you pass one. Overcome your fear of bugs while you train.

Leonie
You want me to draw spiders?! Ew, no!

Leonie
Would that even help?

Shamir
Yes. I should know.

Leonie
Huh? You were scared of them too?

Shamir
I was, but they don't bother me anymore.

Leonie
OK, you've talked me into it. I'll give it a try.

Shamir
And don't hang them where other people might pass.

Leonie
Got it! Got it. Learned my lesson. Promise.

Shamir
I'm choosing to believe that.
