Part 912: Severa A

Sorry to keep you waiting, Severa. An errand came up that has me running a bit behind schedule today.

I... I wasn't waiting for you, Inigo!

Ah ha ha! Suuure you weren't!

Gya! You are simply DELUSIONAL! ...Also, you are running late today. You always bother me at the same time every day. I can set a clock to it.

That's because I was getting... THIS! It's a present! ...Come on, open it! Come on, come on, come ooon!

You got me a... present?

I sure did! You never seemed to believe me when I said you looked good. So I thought this ring might help you feel more...I dunno. Pretty?

You... really want me to have this?

Well, yeah! I picked it out for you! Go on, try it on.

This is stupid. I don't see why... A-all right. But just to see how... There. It's on.

Say, it really brings out your eyes! I think you look adorable. Of course, I DO have a talent for this sort of thing.

F-flattery will get you nowhere, Inigo! Now take this back!

But... it looks good on you.

...It's bulky and garish and would just get in the way. Kind of like the person who gave it to me!

Oh, I... I see...

Still, I suppose it means your words are more than idle flattery.

So... thank you. Now good-bye! (leaves)

...There she goes again.

But at least I got a smile this time!

...Oh, Inigo, you sly dog, you!
