Part 917: Nah B

*Sigh* ...She didn't have to yell like that. A simple no would have sufficed. Ah, well. Plenty of fish in the sea.

Still haven't learned your lesson, I see.

No one has ever won a woman's heart through capitulation!

Or creepiness.

How do you not surrender after being turned down this many times?

It's who I am. Flirting is in my blood! I'm constitutionally incapable of NOT talking to beautiful women.

Ugh, I'm wasting my breath trying to convince you with words. I suppose I'll just have to eat you and be done with it.

Ha ha! Ha! Oh, what a wit! What a razor-sharp... um... wit. You know, I really wish you wouldn't tell jokes with a straight face like that.

Honestly, I don't see why you need to ask women out at all. You're handsome enough. If you kept your mouth shut, they'd come to you.

Who would even know to look for me if I didn't put myself out there?

Well, me, for one. I imagine I could find you tolerable if you stopped talking.

Ah, the sweet naivete of youth!

You're too young to be worrying about other people's affairs of the heart, Nah. But I'm sure you'll find someone perfect once you're older.

Now why don't you run along and see if Uncle Chrom will read you a bedtime story? (leaves)

...Get back here, you idiot! Manaketes just grow slowly! I'm the same age as you!
