And what, run an estate while I'm in my teens? Fight over a lord intervening to get me hitched?

All I want to do right now is have fun.

[phoenix_temple]

Are you having fun though?

[fluidgender]

With you here? Always.

[phoenix_temple]

Well I know that isn’t true!

[fluidgender]

You think too little of yourself.

[phoenix_temple]

I’ve seen you after diners with your father and mother my lady.

[fluidgender]

Well yes, my mom and dad were there. Them making me mad is a lot different from you making me happy.

[phoenix_temple]

I’m still with you then. I’m always with you.

[fluidgender]

Its their fault for being in the way then! When they're blocking the view, its hard to stay as happy.

[phoenix_temple]

[ She giggles a bit at that. ] Of course, my lady.

Just remember I am always on your side, and at your side.

[fluidgender]

Its so much effort to turn my head! Better to stare at you face forward I think.

[phoenix_temple]

A servant should never be ahead of her master. It’s a breach of protocol that I am so close to you so often.

[fluidgender]

They say that, but they still expect ya to be ahead of 'em and keep everything tidy and prepared... Ain't a lot of fairness.

[phoenix_temple]

If my father was able to handle it, I’ll be able to as well. He had a much more difficult master than I do.

[fluidgender]

Yeah, but Pops is still here. That's like... twice the trouble when you include me.

[phoenix_temple]

I don’t serve your father unless you ask me to. And you’re hardly as bad.

[fluidgender]

[She dodges past that first part.] I should hope not! I'm much cuter.

[phoenix_temple]

Well that is a given!

[fluidgender]

No, now you got me doubting! [She lifts a finger into the air.] You're gonna have to find a way to prove my cuteness at some point now...

[phoenix_temple]

It couldn’t be that hard. I’d need only show you to a mirror.

[fluidgender]

Oho, flattery will get you everywhere!

But maybe I demand something more. Like a dance or a day out in the shopping district.

[phoenix_temple]

Your wish is my command, my lady.

But I am a much better dancer than you.

[fluidgender]

Ehhh? Is that a challenge?

[phoenix_temple]

Not a challenge. Just a statement of fact.
