Part 807: Gregor (Father) A
Apply the whetstone to the blade at an angle, and then... Gah, not again! That's the fifth one that broke! Nothing EVER goes right for me!
Er, Severa? What are you doing?
I'm sharpening these stupid weapons that won't stay sharp! Gawds!
You told me to help out, right? So I'm helping.
...And what is huge pile of broken swords behind you?
It's not my fault they're defective! They all, like, fell apart and stuff! Sorry I'm not PREFECT at everything like Mother! Sorry I'm SO STUPID! I get it--I'm useless! You should just drown me in a sack...
Gregor thinks you are overreact--
I burn everything I try to cook... I just about beheaded a horse while chopping wood... I'm no help to anyone! I'm just a bunch of lame deadweight.
You must've had high hopes, too, given Mother's history. I'm such a disappointment.
......
...Well? If you have something to say, just say it!
Gregor not disappointed. In fact, he could not be happier daughter came back to us.
Oh, please. Are you mocking me? Do you really think I'm that stupid? All my life, every time I mess something up, people compare me to Mother! And you're closer to her than anyone! I KNOW you think I don't measure up.
You're your own woman, Severa. Gregor would never compare to other. You are daughter and treasure, yes? And Gregor knows mother feels same.
Wha--?!
Gregor will make with the standing behind you no matter what happens. So no more talk of being disappointment! It make Gregor feel like failure as father.
What? No! Daddy, you didn't! *sniff* I'm sorry! I... I didn't...WAAAAAAAAAH...
Oy, do not cry! You go through much, yes, but everything all right now. Gregor is sorry for saying you need more hardship. He know it has been hard...But he will do all he can to keep daughter from suffering again. And you HAVE been making with the daily chores, yes? So let's give reward!
No. I don't need it. I don't need anything but you, Daddy!
But if you die on me again, I'll never forgive you!
Gregor is not going anywhere, child. Is promise.
