I've... really never met a girl so gorgeous and kind. It's almost a fairytale trait, I'd think.

[primrosella.livejournal.com]

Well, I've been told I live in a place that's rather like a fairy tale, so perhaps you're not as far off as you think, after all.

If that's the case, one has to wonder if anyone like that could exist in mine.

Victoria is the closest it comes.

[primrosella.livejournal.com]

[Oh, boy, here it goes.]

Then I think your Victoria is much, much luckier than she realizes, that someone like you cares so strongly and deeply about her.

I haven't done enough, really. I can never do enough--- unlike Humphrey. Did you know he went all to Ipswitch to buy her a ring? I... how am I to match that?

[ silence ]

Unless Yvaine and I return to Wall.

[primrosella.livejournal.com]

Is that what she wanted? A ring from Ipswitch, in exchange for her hand in marriage?

[gazingup.livejournal.com]

I don't know if that's what she wanted, but she... she seemed extremely happy at the prospect of him returning with it.

[primrosella.livejournal.com]

And she seemed happier still, I take it, at the thought of you returning with a star for her?

[gazingup.livejournal.com]

... Yes. However, I suspect she doesn't think I'm able to it.

[primrosella.livejournal.com]

...Really, she ought to be marrying you because you're kind and considerate and brave, and noble and honest and charming, besides. Because you are all of those things, and I think...I'd question whether or not she sees that in you. But I know I do.

Now you're being too kind, Rosella. None of those adjectives aren't fit for me, other than kind and considerate.

Or at least that's how I try to be.

[primrosella.livejournal.com]

Is it really too kind if it's just the truth? Perhaps I ought to add "humble" to my list, as well.

[gazingup.livejournal.com]

I'm... just uncertain where you made such observation. I haven't really done much anywhere here.

[primrosella.livejournal.com]

You spent a month searching the woods for Yvaine when you thought you'd lost her. That certainly sounds brave to me.

[gazingup.livejournal.com]

If I lost her, how else could I have brought her to Victoria?

[primrosella.livejournal.com]

That's true, but having justification for it doesn't make it any less brave, does it?
