Your Songs Remind Me of Swimming...

“Just because something happened from experience doesn’t mean you need to retell the whole story bit by bit. The sentiment can be shared while sparing the bloody details. Yes, the realness of a story and the pain of it reminds us of the humanity behind the morals, and I get the seriousness you were trying to impart, but dear...” Another sigh. Liam could be a headstrong, blunt idiot at times... but she still loved him for it. “Love, you remember who handled most of the diplomatic meetings, yes? I think it’s time you learned a thing or two about being a diplomat in this day and age.”

“... Unfortunately yes. I can’t seem to forget that day.” She sighs. “While yes, your words are true and in a perfect world we would not have to choose one above the other, there are a ton of better ways to go about sharing the sentiment without bringing up a memory as painful as that one.”

“... Advice on what, pray tell. Stabbing something? That’s not exactly something you bring up to people on a normal basis.”

“Liam. What chaos are you creating this time..?”

“Hmm, probably the one about the Ugly Duckling. I always thought that one had a good message behind it.”

“My ideal water type Pokémon? Well, Meri is a good example. She’s cheerful, likes swimming with me, is patient with my antics, and goes with the flow. I don’t like picking favorites though.”
