HEY NERDS I'm horribly indecisive over which character(s) to play from this cute game, so call out a character out of these three in the subject line and let's thread! You can choose a prompt or I can come up with one. Cross-Tales/cross-canon CR is totally fine too. (As a note, I'm also still clearing out sidequest content beyond the main story/future arc, so apologies in advance if there's still gaps in my canon knowledge!)

[Richard's smile softens a little at her nerves. He can tell she's speaking sincerely, and compared to the hollowness of courtly relations, it's something he can appreciate.]

Then I suppose now is as good an opportunity as any to practice. [Because if she doesn't, she'll only be taken advantage of -- but again, he won't voice such thoughts. Instead, he simply gestures to the chair next to her.] Is it all right if I join you? Although if you wish to be alone, I won't be offended.
