Same day. Your old rooms.
"As strange as it may sound, dancing has always been comforting to me whenever I'm struggling or stressed out. I just spin around, move my arms and legs and it's like I'm free. Life just melts away."
Francis: Y/N?
You: Francis?
Francis: What are you doing?
You: Nothing I...I didn't realize anybody was up here. Did I disturb you?
Francis: No. I was just...
You: Gathering your thoughts.
Francis: Yes, I sometimes come up here to be alone.
You: To my old rooms?
Francis: I know it must sound silly....
You: No, not silly...sweet.
You smile sweetly at each other.
Francis: There's another reason I come up here though.
He takes you to another one of your old rooms.
You:(smile) Where did all these swords come from?
Francis: I made them.
You: You made them? All of them?
Francis: Yes.
You: I never knew you were interested in bladesmithing.
Francis: I wasn't as a child, but I somehow acquired an interest.
You: What other interests have you acquired? Besides breaking countless girls hearts.
Francis: I have not been breaking countless girls hearts.
You: Alright you don't have to tell me if you don't want to...I'll just ask Bash.
Francis: You wouldn't dare?
You: So you have kissed a lot of women.
Francis: Not as many as you think.
There's a moment of seriousness.
You: So tell me what other interests have you acquired? Bash told me you've taken up building boats
Francis: I'm trying to learn, but it's not easy.
You: Math never was your best subject.
Francis: Among other things
Another serious moment.
Francis: I should go, I promised Bash I'd spar with him.
You: Alright.
Francis leaves, you continue dancing.
Longer chapter next time. Promise!!!
