[k] @Mordred It's gotta be because of our king or some girl. [k] @Mordred Either one of those'll set him off real fast. [k] [charaFadeout D 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk B] [charaFace B 0] [charaFadein B 0.1 1] @Bedivere That's true... [k] ?1:He slept through a parade? ?! [charaFace B 4] @Bedivere Yes... [k] [charaFace B 0] @Bedivere After a victorious expedition,[sr]we returned home in triumph with our king. [k] @Bedivere We received a joyous reception from the citizenry. [k] [charaFace B 4] @Bedivere But...while we were riding through the fanfare...[sr]Sir Tristan was asleep on his horse. [k] @Bedivere Sir Lancelot obvious reprimanded him, but he may even have been sleeping through the lecture.

[k] [charaFace D 0] @Mordred Unless something is REALLY serious, he's always got his eyes closed. Somehow he's still aware of his surroundings, though. [k] [charaFace B 0] @Bedivere I read somewhere that animals like bats and whales possess an ability called echolocation. [k] [charaFace B 2] @Bedivere Perhaps Sir Tristan is like that.

We're already not sure whether he's a bird or a human anyway! [k] [charaTalk B] [charaFace B 1] [charaFadein B 0.1 2] @Bedivere Well, that is quite rude, Sir Mordred.[sr]But Sir Tristan's nerves are truly mystifying. [k] @Bedivere He possesses sensitivity, impudence,[sr]transience, and incorrigibility... [k] @Bedivere An animal that is tranquil, unreadable, but is said to shed tears at times...indeed, I suppose comparing him to a whale is appropriate.

[charaFace E 0] @Tristan Ah, I see you've noticed.[sr]...I was remembering the past. [k] ?2:Did something sad happen? [charaFace E 0] @Tristan How direct of you. Yes...I was remembering[sr]something very sad from very long ago. [k] ?! @Tristan I was thinking of Iseult. [k] [charaFadeout E 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 7] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Mash Isn't Iseult your... [k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk E] [charaFace E 0] [charaFadein E 0.1 1] @Tristan There were, in fact, two Iseults in my lifetime. [k] @Tristan One was the Iseult I loved.[sr]The other was the Iseult with white hands who loved me. [k] [charaFace E 4] @Tristan ...Most people get the wrong idea[sr]about this story if I tell it. [k] @Tristan They think of it as a story of an immoral two-timer, figuring that makes sense for a handsome man like me. [k] ?1:Well... [charaFace E 0] @Tristan It's fine.[sr]No need to sugarcoat your words. [k] ?2:Didn't you love them both? [charaFace E 0] @Tristan Yes.[sr]And that is the problem. [k] ?! [charaFace E 4] @Tristan Ultimately, did I really love someone? [k] [charaFadeout E 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 6] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Mash Eh...!? [k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk E] [charaFace E 0] [charaFadein E 0.1 1] @Tristan According to legend, my falling in love was the work of a love potion. [k] @Tristan That mad, passionate feeling...I never once felt it with the Iseult with the white hands. [k] [charaFace E 4] @Tristan But that was just the effects of the potion. Could it have been a mistake...a fleeting dream one night? [k] @Tristan Yes. And all this seems to come from the fact that I was never loved once, not from the moment I was born. [k] @Tristan As I never knew love during my childhood,[sr]perhaps I never learned to love others. [k] [charaFace E 0] @Tristan Thinking on such things immediately drags me down, and the next thing I knew, I was playing this music. [k] [charaFadeout E 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 7] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Mash No, I don't think that is true.

[k] [messageOff] [se ad150] [wt 0.6] @Tristan As Sir Bedivere mentioned,[sr]maybe I do fail as a human being? [k] @Tristan As a melancholy dragon who never knew love, I can't help but to think I may well end up crushed under Martha's foot! [k] ?1:STOP! [charaFace E 0] @Tristan But I'm not moving. [k] ?2:Calm down!!! [charaFace E 0] @Tristan I am calm.[sr]My heart is beating at a normal rate. [k] @Tristan I can check my pulse if you would like. [k] ?!

[k] [charaFadeout E 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk C] [charaFace C 0] [charaFadein C 0.1 1] @Gawain Of course I wouldn't understand. Not so much your sadness as WHY you are always getting so sad. [k] @Gawain Nobody can best you when it comes to loving someone...at least that's what I think. [k] @Gawain Love is a shapeless thing to begin with.[sr]Even loyalty is a type of love, wouldn't you agree? [k] @Gawain It has nothing to do with physical lust.[sr]The intensity of passion is also meaningless. [k] [charaFace C 4] @Gawain For example, let's say that there is a man who was weak and mild-mannered. He then took a woman to be his wife... [k] @Gawain But then, a powerful entity threatened his life, unless he would trade it for his wife. And the man, sadly, complied. [k] [charaFace C 5] @Gawain Would you say that he did not love his wife? [k] @Gawain Who are we, who are much better able to fight such a being, to say that such a man did not love his wife?

[k] @Gawain Master. Please do not trouble[sr]yourself about Tristan's lamentations. [k] [charaFace C 1] @Gawain This cloud of sadness can simply be blown away by force.

[k] [charaFadeout E 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk C] [charaFace C 0] [charaFadein C 0.1 1] @Gawain Then use a simulation of me for his opponent.[sr]Please make him as strong as possible.
