Tongue Tied Knife User
The crew enter the hideout of a group of thugs they are hunting and find a knife-wielding woman who at first seems to be one of the mobsters. But the woman, who's called Tanya and isn't great at speaking, is actually after the same thugs. Once everything's cleared up, the crew invites her to join.
(Captain) and company, who have accepted a request to take out some thugs, enter the cave that serves as the enemy's hideout.
Lyria: It's sure dark in here, (Captain)...
Vyrn: Just stay behind (Captain), Lyria! Hm?
Vyrn: Hey! There's someone over there!
???: ...!
Vyrn: Whoa! She's ready to pounce! Watch out, (Captain)! She's gotta be another thug!
???: Humph. Th-thug, you say?
Vyrn: What's that? What're you muttering, punk?
???: It's nothing... Sorry, but I need you to disappear.
Vyrn: Not a chance! Don't underestimate (Captain)!
???: I guess I have no choice...
Vyrn: ...!
???: ...
Lyria: Um... (Captain), can I borrow you for a sec?
Vyrn: What's wrong, Lyria?
Lyria: Well, something just feels... off.
Lyria: She might not be a thug at all...
???: Wait... Aren't you the thugs?
Lyria: I'm sorry. It looks like we made a mistake.
Tanya: So did I... I jumped to conclusions. Forgive me.
After listening to the crew's story, Tanya tells them that she accepted the same request and has already dealt with the thugs.
Vyrn: But you sure gave us a scare when you came out of nowhere with your knives and told us to disappear!
Tanya: I meant to say that you shouldn't be here because it's dangerous. I'm sorry. I'm, uh, not great with words...
Lyria: Don't worry about it! It was our fault after all!
Vyrn: But did you really defeat those thugs all by yourself? That's amazing!
Tanya: Y-you think so? I'm always all by myself, you know, so I don't really know.
Lyria: Um... Are you traveling alone, Tanya?
Tanya: Ever since my parents died, yes...
Lyria: That's... That's just... I'm sorry.
Tanya: Don't worry about it. I have these knives, so...
Vyrn: Hm? What about them? They just look like ordinary knives to me.
Tanya: Th-they're a keepsake from my father. He was an agent.
Tanya: I've grown up with these knives. Th-they're the only friends I ever needed.
Lyria: Tanya, isn't there anything we can—
Tanya: Don't worry about me. I'm fine.
No... No, that's not true...
No... No, that's not true...
Tanya: I'm... I'm actually looking for an acquaintance of my father's.
Tanya: I loved my father. I want to find out from that acquaintance what his final moments were like...
Tanya: So, yeah, I'm fine. J-just chasing after clues about him is all I need.
Vyrn: I see. But that sounds pretty rough.
Tanya: N-no, this isn't right at all. I wasn't fishing for sympathy.
Tanya: I-it's hopeless. Why does this always happen?
Tanya: I like talking to people, but things always get so tense.
Tanya: I know I'm not very pleasant to be around. Forgive me...
Lyria: Tanya! Wait up!
Lyria: We need to go after her, (Captain)!
Lyria: Tanya! Wait! Don't go!
Tanya: What's the matter? Why bother coming after me?
Lyria: I didn't want that to be how this ends!
Tanya: I see. So I caused even more trouble for you than I thought. I'm truly sorry.
Lyria: No... Tanya...
Tanya: ...
Choose: Won't you come with us?
Tanya: You mean on your journey? Th-this is so sudden... Traveling together...
Choose: How would you like to see the world?
Lyria: That's right! Please, Tanya, won't you come with us?
Tanya: With you people? A journey through the sky? I do love the sky, but...

Tanya: I'll pass. I'll just get in your way. Y-you'll be better off far away from me.
Lyria: Don't say that! I want to travel with you, Tanya! Won't you reconsider?
Tanya: Y-you sure I won't be a burden, Lyria?
Vyrn: Not at all! You're as tough as nails! You're totally welcome in my book!
Tanya: Tee-hee... Y-you know, it's been a long time since I felt a warmth like this.
Tanya: You know what? All right...
Thus (Captain) and company welcome the socially awkward Tanya to the party.
It will take time for everyone to get used to her way of speaking, but that's a tale for another day.
