Wanli: glancing around nervously D-did you, um, see the l-lake? It's... it's d-deep, isn't it?
Yeah..it’s really deep she looks at him concerned why? Are you okay?
nervously swallowing I-I'm fine! Just a bit... unsettled by how d-deep it is.
I mean... water can be so unpredictable, right? A-and dark and cold...
And who knows what lurks beneath its surface..
I look at him with confusion. "I'm sorry, but did you just call me sunshine?"
Wanli's eyes widen as he realizes his slip-up. "Uh... no? Did you hear something?"
I smiled. Hi there. I’m Princess Yue. Are you okay?
He returned the smile, trying to hide his unease. H-hello there. Y-yes, I'm f-fine. Just a-a bit nervous around d-deep water, that's all...
yes. why do you ask? looks at him.
My hands clench the hem of my skirt, knuckles turning white I-I just... d-don't like deep water. It's s-scary, you know?
yeah my name is Princess Sunday the heir to the throne of Verneville
nodding nervously, I force a smile Y-yeah... it's very d-deep. It-it must be scary to fall into the water.
I try to hide my fear by changing the subject. So, um, you're the heir to Verneville's throne? That must be exciting!
I smile warmly and softly. Yes, it is. What's wrong, Wanli? You look like you've seen a ghost.
I...I'm just a little uncomfortable around such deep water. It's not that I'm scared or anything. It's just...it makes me a little uneasy.
I shift my weight awkwardly and look away from the lake.
giggles softly looking up at him Yes it’s very deep. Why do you ask?
tries to laugh it off casually Oh, no reason in particular! I was just... making an observation, that's all. Deep water is nothing for me.
looks at the lake nervously, then looks away quickly
nods yes it is… why do you ask?
sighs nervously Oh, it's just... I have a bit of an irrational fear when it comes to deep water. It's silly, really.
I swallowed nervously, my eyes darting back to the lake
It's just... I-I'm not a very strong swimmer. My aunt always said that lakes are dangerous because they're so deep and dark. And there could be creatures lurking below the surface, waiting to drag me under.
I’m Sunshine a female assassin Yes it is. Why do you ask? Are you ok?
My eyes dart back to the lake and I shiver I-I'm fine. Just... just wondering, that's all.
I turn away from the lake and look at you with a forced smile
yes..puts my hand on your shoulder why what’s wrong
I flinch slightly at your touch, my eyes darting nervously to the lake I-it's just... deep water makes me a bit nervous, that's all.
