Beruka x Selena A
Music: Dance in the Dark
SELENA: Ahhh! Beruka! You're late!
BERUKA: Your message was very vague-I had to be sure it actually came from you.
SELENA: Well, you got here eventually, at least. Anyway, I had a question for you!
SELENA: What do you normally do when you come into town?
BERUKA: Purchase new weapons...or poisons. Sometimes a new anatomy book to help me find new ways to kill people.
SELENA: You what? No, never mind. Your brain must be a scary place.
SELENA: Anyway, I wanted to take you shopping with me today!
BERUKA: All right. What are we going to buy?
SELENA: Some matching accessories! One for me, one for you, and one for Lady Camilla!
BERUKA: Accessories? Are you serious?
SELENA: Think about it. We realized how similar we are, and we both value Lady Camilla.
SELENA: It's a sign from the gods that we need accessories as a symbol of the connection.
BERUKA: The gods must not be very busy...
SELENA: Oh, shhh! You know what I mean. Don't ruin this moment!
SELENA: I just meant...we're friends.
BERUKA: I get it. OK, let's go find something.
SELENA: Are you sure?
BERUKA: Of course. After thinking about it... There are functional uses for accessories.
BERUKA: Necklaces for strangling, or earrings that double as small blades.
SELENA: Seriously, you've got a twisted way of thinking.
BERUKA: I'm sorry. I'll use them as they are intended.
SELENA: That's all I ask.
SELENA: Anyway! I think we should buy a matching set of accessories. That way, if we're ever separated, we'll have them to remember each other with!
BERUKA: If we're ever separated... Are you already planning for our deaths?
SELENA: No! Not at all! I just mean...there are so many reasons that we could become separated.
SELENA: The world is a strange place, sometimes...
BERUKA: I suppose you're right. I doubt I would wear a matching item if you were gone, though.
BERUKA: I'd keep it somewhere safe and then break it out when we next met. I suspect you'd be mad if I lost it.
BERUKA: There'd be something lonely about wearing it while the matching one is absent.
SELENA: *sniff* *sniff*
BERUKA: Selena, are those tears? Why are you crying?
SELENA: Because of what you just said! I didn't think you could express that feeling so well.
BERUKA: Thank you. I think.
BERUKA: Regardless, what sort of accessories should we get? We should really decide soon, too-it isn't great that we've left Lady Camilla alone.
SELENA: Oh hell, you're right! Let's choose quickly...
SELENA: How about a necklace? Then we would just need to settle on a design...
SELENA: Oh! Rings could be great. And instead of one style, how about different colors?
SELENA: A purple one would be absolutely perfect for Lady Camilla. We should check several places before we make a decision, though...
BERUKA: Um, all right...
BERUKA: This could take some time. But maybe it's OK to enjoy myself once in a while...
