Selena x Beruka C
Music: Pray to the Dark
SELENA: Hello, Beruka.
BERUKA: Selena? What do you need?
SELENA: I don't need anything, Beruka, but... We are both retainers to Lady Camilla. I want to know which of us is stronger. We should duel sometime to find out.
BERUKA: I do not especially want to fight for no reason. If Lady Camilla commanded it... But no, I do not want to fight just to satisfy your curiosity.
SELENA: Ooooor...could it be that you're afraid of losing to me? Hmmmm?
BERUKA: There is no need to put up a false front of confidence.
SELENA: Wh-what? What do you mean by that?
BERUKA: I know that you are a skilled fighter...
BERUKA: But I believe that you are -emotionally- quite fragile.
BERUKA: You're too concerned with how you rate compared to others. You're constantly trying to prove you're the best.
SELENA: Th-that's not true.
BERUKA: If you were suddenly proven wrong, I don't think you could handle the disappointment.
SELENA: Hrm.
SELENA: As long as we're analyzing, how about you? Aren't you just like me?
BERUKA: We aren't alike at all. I've never sought out the approval of my peers the way you do.
SELENA: I meant that you appear strong but are actually quite fragile.
SELENA: You won't ever do anything unless there's some outside motivation, right? Either there's enough money, or duty requires that you act.
SELENA: If you never do anything for yourself, what is it that makes you...you?
BERUKA: You may be correct.
BERUKA: Maybe I am a fragile person, as well...
