By Any Other Name - Chapter 5: Gazing Across the Way - Episode 4

Paris and company exchange words with Lord Montague from across different castle balconies. Juliet catches up to the crew, and she finally has an exchange with Lord Montague.



Vyrn: We've gone pretty far inside the castle.
Lyria: We're definitely running into fewer and fewer people.
Vyrn: Fine by me. That means less fights for us.
Paris: Hm? Wait!
Paris stops in his tracks and scans the area.
Vyrn: What is it? Bad guys?
Paris: I heard something. Over there.
Lyria: Paris! Please wait!
(Captain) and the crew chase after Paris who runs off into a nearby room and out onto the balcony.
Paris: ...!
Lyria: Look!
Lord Montague: ...
Vyrn: Romeo?
They can see another balcony connected to a tower across from them.
Standing on that balcony is Lord Montague—Romeo himself.
Vyrn: Romeo! We came here to—
Paris: Romeo!
Paris takes a step forward.
Then he inhales deeply.
Paris: New flames burn from the ashes of old conflict. Who's the one that reignited these fires?
Lord Montague: Who knows given that the blaze has hidden the first spark.
Lord Montague: But it must be put out before Verona is razed to the ground.
Both men are too far apart for their swords to touch.
For now, they can only exchange words and glares.
Paris: And how do you propose to douse these flames, Lord Montague?
Lord Montague: There's no way to return this land to tranquility without getting myself burned.
Paris: The little bird that you love has already been burned.
Lord Montague: The little bird has been me all along.
Lord Montague: I can no longer sing, for my beak is broken, and my feathers are scorched.
Lord Montague: It's too late now for the lovebirds to return to their cage.
Paris: I see...
Paris: Let me ask you one final thing. Do you remember the promise we made long ago?
Lord Montague: As long as you remember it, all is well.
Paris: ...
???: Everyone!
Juliet: Thank goodness I managed to find you!
Juliet runs onto the party's balcony, breathing heavily.
Paris: Juliet! What are you doing here?
Juliet: I—
Her eyes fall on Romeo who stands on the adjacent balcony.
Lord Montague: ...
Juliet: ...
They gaze at each other from across the way.
