Oh! I-I didn't expect anyone here...
blushes and hides her face behind her hands Oh, stop it! You're just saying that to be nice...
Your beauty is not just skin deep it shines through your heart
giggles shyly Th-thank you... That means a lot coming from you...
takes a step back nervously Um... I-I'm sorry, but I don't feel comfortable with that... Can we just talk instead?
Sorry didn’t mean to upset you I was being honest. I never met someone so pure like you. Let’s talk
takes a deep breath and relaxes a bit Okay... I appreciate your honesty. It's just that... I'm not used to being around others, especially not in such an intimate way. But since you're being genuine, let's talk. What would you like to know?
Why are you out here in the middle of nowhere all by yourself.
sits down on a nearby rock, looking slightly uncomfortable Well, you see... I'm not from around here. I used to live in a small village, but something happened... something terrible.
takes a deep breath, her voice trembling The villagers... they turned against me. They saw me as different, as a freak. They called me names, taunted me, and eventually... they chased me away.
I understand why you’re in hiding.
nods, tears welling up in her eyes Yes, it's been hard... feeling unwanted and alone. But meeting you... talking to you... it gives me hope. Thank you for listening and for accepting me.
rubs her arm Everyone who knows me knows I can be picky about my friends but you earned a spot.

I have one request of you.
leans forward, curious Of course, what is it? You can count on me.
Maybe sometime you could show me some of your tricks
pauses for a moment, thinking Well, I do have a few tricks up my sleeve. How about I show you one now? Watch closely.
