Scenario:Galleon - A Love Too Great

A Love Too Great

Galleon pays (Captain) a sudden visit one morning and tends to the captain's every need—no matter how small. When she imitates Ewiyar in expressing eagerness to receive a head pat, some begin to wonder about Galleon's change in personality.

---

A typical morning like any other begins for the crew.

(Captain) has just woken up in the captain's quarters.

Galleon: Dawn.
(Good morning, Singularity.)

A surprised (Captain) sits upright on the bed.

Galleon: Rejuvenation.
(Have you recovered from fatigue? I bless you with a wonderful day.)

Galleon: Decorum.
(Blessings upon your bed too for providing you with a good night's rest.)

Vyrn: Mng... Someone there?

Vyrn: What the... Galleon?

Waking up beside (Captain), Vyrn is bewildered to see someone unexpected in the room.

Galleon the Gold, as the earth wedge, is one of the Six Dragons that preserves the shape of the world.

Concerned with the threat presented by Otherworlders from the Crimson Horizon, she had incorporated Vyrn's power into herself.

Believing that she was going too far, the crew stopped her rampage.

Galleon apologized for overstepping her bounds. Because no one was hurt in the end, the incident was deemed water under the bridge.

Galleon: Blessing.
(Red Dragon, I offer a blessing unto you as well.)

Vyrn: Gah! Everything's a blessing with you!

Vyrn: What brings ya here anyway? Got business with (Captain)?

Galleon: Kismet.
(I came here hoping to see (Captain).)

Galleon: Penitence.
(But first, I wish to apologize.)

Galleon: Wish.
(Although I acted out of a desire to see the world restored to its former glory...)

Galleon: Indiscretion.
(I ended up causing great trouble for you and all other lives in the Sky Realm.)

Galleon: Apology.
(As one of the Six Dragons, what I did was unforgivable.)

Galleon: Atonement..
(Yet not only did you make me see sense, but you were also quick to forgive me. For that, I am grateful.)

(Captain) suggests that they simply let bygones be bygones.

Vyrn: I mean, I was caught up in my head too at the time. Felt like I had no other choice...

Vyrn: So it wouldn't be right to pin everything on you. Far from it!

Galleon: Regret.
(You believe so?)

Vyrn: I know so! Tell her, (Captain)!

The captain readily nods, eliciting a smile from Galleon.

Galleon: Gratitude.
(I will not forget this kindness. For now, allow me to bless—)

Vyrn: Gah! Here we go again!

Lyria's Voice: (Captain), Vyrn, rise and shine! Breakfast is ready!

Vyrn: Oh, better get a move on.

Vyrn: Already up, Lyria! See ya at the dining hall in a bit!

Lyria's Voice: Okay!

Vyrn: Care to join us, Galleon?

Galleon: Companionship.
(If you don't mind, I will gladly accompany you.)

Vyrn: All right then. Time for (Captain) to get changed!

Once the captain is ready, the three proceed to the dining hall.

The four end up enjoying breakfast together.

Vyrn: ...

Lyria: ...

Galleon: Assistance.
(Singularity, open your mouth. Good, stay like that...)

Galleon: Comfort.
(Now close your mouth and take it all in. Oh my, a stain on your mouth. I'll wipe it for you.)

Galleon: Reliance.
(Yes, stay still. I will take care of you.)

Galleon: Wholesomeness.
(Haha, good job. Now for your next spoonful.)

Lyria: Um... Galleon!

Galleon: Acknowledgement.
(Yes, Girl in Blue?)

Lyria: Uh... Just why exactly are you spoon-feeding (Captain) today!

Lyria: I... I wish I could spoon-feed (Captain) too... Er, I mean...

Galleon: Dissatisfaction.
(Do you disapprove?)

Vyrn: Well... For starters, you're not exactly using the spoon right.

Vyrn: You keep using the backside to pick up food, so it just slips off.

Galleon: Insight.
(Oh, this is the backside? No wonder...)

Galleon: Apology.
(I did not mean to stain your mouth, (Captain). I hope you'll forgive me.)

Seeing the disappointment in Galleon's eyes, the captain opens wide once more.

Galleon: ...!

Galleon: Acceptance.
(I will deliver another spoonful to your mouth at once. If this is the backside, then this must be the front.)

Lyria: Um, I don't remember Galleon being quite like this before...

After an unusually long time spent on breakfast, (Captain) has regained some amount of freedom—for but a moment.

Galleon: Trust.
((Captain), can you turn to me with your mouth open?)

Galleon: Stillness.
(Loosen up those face muscles. Good.)

Galleon: Cleanliness.
(Allow me to clean this up. Healthy teeth are important.)

The captain isn't quite sure how to respond to Galleon's tooth-brushing assistance.

Galleon: Companionship.
(Where are you going, Singularity? I shall accompany you.)

With cat food in hand, they make for the Grandcypher's deck next. Lyria and Vyrn are puzzled to see Galleon moving in lockstep with the captain.

Lyria: What's gotten into Galleon...

Lyria: I don't remember her clinging to (Captain) like this before...

Vyrn: For one thing, she definitely doesn't mean any harm...

Vyrn: Makes me wonder if something happened...

Lyria: I'm happy that she's trying to be friendly with us, but...

Lyria: Now I'm just worried about her.

Lyria: Hey, kitty! We brought you food!

Ewiyar: Meeooww!

Galleon: ...
(Oh?)

Vyrn: This is your first time meetin' her, right? She's a pet of sorts.

Vyrn: We figure she's a stray cat that happened to sneak aboard at some island we docked at. Didn't feel right tossing her away, so we just kept her around.

Galleon: Realization.
(So I see.)

(Captain) places Lyria's handmade cat food before Ewiyar, who delightfully gorges away.

Ewiyar: Meow! Meow-meow! Meorw!

Vyrn: No clue what she's sayin'. Seems happy enough though.

Lyria: Haha, that's for sure. Please eat to your heart's content, kitty!

Ewiyar: Meow!

Having emptied her tray, Ewiyar spreads out on the ground with arms and legs outstretched. She is in bliss as Lyria and the captain caress her fur.

Ewiyar: Mew.

Lyria: You're as fluffy as ever!

Ewiyar: Merow!

Galleon: ...

Vyrn: Haha, they just love playin' with cats.

Galleon: Favoritism...
(How nice...)

Vyrn: Wha? Everything all right, Galleon?

Ewiyar: Meow!

Galleon: Privilege.
(Singularity, Girl in Blue.)

Lyria: Huh?

Galleon leans down beside the two and sticks her head out.

Galleon: Offering.
(I am ready.)

Lyria: Erm, what are we supposed to do, (Captain)?

Galleon: Dissent?
(Won't you give me the same treatment?)

After the three briefly trade glances, (Captain) begins petting Galleon.

Galleon: ...

Lyria: Hrm...

The comfort provided by (Captain)'s and Lyria's simultaneous head-petting brings a smile to Galleon's face.

Galleon: Wisdom.
(Mortals love running their fingers through hair or fur. An important lesson learned.)

Ewiyar: Meow, meow-meow...

Ewiyar: Hiss!

Lyria: Oh, kitty!

Vyrn: Guess she got upset that Galleon was gettin' all the attention.

Vyrn: Which is kinda ironic when you consider how freedom-loving she is.

Lyria: Ahaha, that's what's so cute about her.

Vyrn: That's one way of lookin' at it...

Galleon: Desire.
(Red Dragon, if you wish a caress for yourself, you're welcome to stick your head out.)

Vyrn: Er... Nah, I'm good!

Vyrn: I'm just wonderin' why you're suddenly craving (Captain)'s attention so much.

Galleon: Grace.
(I believe those who do their best to make the world a better place are worthy of reward.)

Vyrn: Well... No argument there, but...

Galleon: Comfort.
(So you agree then?)

Galleon: Expedience.
(Singularity, please keep it up if it pleases you.)

Galleon: Guidance.
(You are also welcome to touch more than my hair, if you so wish.)

Having inadvertently obscured Vyrn's point, Galleon appears to be in a good mood.

Unsure how best to react to Galleon, (Captain) simply shoots Lyria a confused look.
