[It’s not that she’s unused to people being nice to her, but she is unaccustomed to anyone being quite so open or sincere, so she pauses for a moment.]

You really are weird... [huff] Anyways, there’s no point in not being bold or not saying what you want! Someone else will take the opportunities that you pass up.

[It's fine he's just feeling generous right now and also maybe the tiniest bit vindictive in that maybe she deserves a little sincerity attack after That]

I happen to agree entirely. I suppose that's why I'm here at all in the first place.

[fisherwoman]

[As she settles back onto the grass:]

Then what did you come here for? Ah, unless that’s off limits, too.

[headmt]

Wouldn't you like to know, fisherman?

[Clouds start to move across the sky by now, as it gets later into the night. He doesn't seem all that bothered.]

. . . I suppose I'm trying to decide if I should come up with an intriguing lie or tell you the mundane truth.

[fisherwoman]

If you’re going to give me a nickname, you should at least make it elegant, you know!

[But she sighs.]

Mundane, huh? How boring.

[headmt]

You and Lust are awfully picky, you know.

[stop complaining about the nicknames!!! Anyway, grinning. Thanks for picking up what he was putting down here.]

In that case, I'm of course here to grant my greatest desire: to restore my family to the throne of the great Empire beyond the sea. I'm secretly an emperor, but I'm a bit on the outs with the court I'm afraid. Lineage situation.

[fisherwoman]

Hm... Funny! Once, someone very wise told me it was impressive that I ask for what I want.

[With a laugh:]

Very dramatic. Good luck proving you’re the rightful heir, I guess!
