Ogma and Caeda (Caeda's Request)

Caeda: Ogma!
Ogma: Princess...
Caeda: I never got to thank you for coming along with us. There's no swordsman I trust more. I've seen your strength.
Ogma: You don't need to thank me, Princess. I'm just doing my job. Speaking of which, your father would flay me if you came to any harm. Do me a favor, and leave the dangerous fighting to me and my men.
Caeda: I don't need protecting, Ogma. ...I've got another job for you. Protect Marth for me.
Ogma: But, Princess...
Caeda: He's very important to me. And the world... But mostly to me. So do as I ask, Ogma. Keep him safe. That's my first and last request.
Ogma: Very well. How could I say no to you?
Caeda: Thank you, Ogma. I knew you'd understand. All right, I have to go. But I hope we get to talk like this more. You're a good listener.
Ogma: ...
Caeda: Yes?
Ogma: You keep yourself safe, too. Marth would grieve if anything befell you.
Caeda: Fair enough. Thank you, Ogma. You're very kind.

Maria and Minerva (Maria Steps Up)

Maria: Sister!
Minerva: Maria... Are you all right?
Maria: Fine. Have you heard? Marth made me one of his soldiers! Well... I made him make me one.
Minerva: ...What am I going to do with you? Listen to me, Maria... You cannot stay here. It's too dangerous. Real war is nothing like your stories of princes and damsels.
Maria: I'm not going anywhere! I want to stay with you!
Minerva: Maria, you're being selfish—
Maria: I am not! I'm just...sick of being helpless. I've burned you long enough. How can I ever help you if you don't give me a chance to be strong? I'm staying here and fighting! No protesting!
Minerva: ...Ha ha. Somehow I knew you would say that. All right, Maria. If you feel that strongly about it, who am I to stop you? All I ask is that you be careful. If you need help, you come find me. Understood?
Maria: Of course! Thank you, Sister!

Merric and Linde (Between Mages)

Merric: Linde, I presume? My name's Merric. Prince Marth asked me to look after you. Not that we mages need any help looking after ourselves, mind you.
Linde: Oh, you've studied magic?
Merric: Yes, in Khadein.
Linde: Khadein... The school? My father was a student there a long time ago.
Merric: The school is beautiful—was beautiful, until Gharnef took over and changed everything. I was blessed with wonderful teachers, and I found a healthy mix of friends and rivals in the other aspiring mages.
Linde: It sounds nice, I suppose. But my father was the only teacher and friend I ever needed. ......
Merric: I'm sorry, Linde...
Linde: Don't be. I'm tough like my father, too. ...Let's talk about you, Merric. And about Khadein. I've never been to a school before. How do they teach?

Boah and Astram (Beneath Archanea's Banner)

Astram: Bishop Boah.
Boah: Ah, Astram. Welcome back. I must say I am relieved. Where would Archanea's army be without its finest knight?
Astram: Nonsense... I am but one arrow in the quiver. Princess Nyna is the bow. So long as we have her to lead us, Archanea's light shall never fade.
Boah: Well spoken, child. But let us be honest: that light has not shone as bright since our defeat at the hands of Dolhr. It will take a miracle to restore Archanea's prestige after this... Or, perhaps, some clever thinking. If our next king were to be foreign...
Astram: What? A king who's not Archanean?
Boah: Well, of course, the princess would need to approve of him. How do you feel about it, Astram?
Astram: I don't. I am a knight. I will leave the feeling to those whose job it is to feel and content myself with serving my kingdom...no matter how the kingdom might change.
Boah: Then you are a loyal knight indeed. Well...the future can wait a tad longer. We have a war to fight first...and win. Archanea's tomorrow depends on it.
Astram: That it does, Bishop.

Minerva and Palla (Whitewinged Parley)

Minerva: Palla, I am truly sorry. I never meant to involve you and your sisters in my personal battles.
Palla: Your battles are our battles, Commander.
Minerva: But our kingdom has fallen apart: sons slay their fathers; brothers and sisters trade blows instead of kisses... I have let Macedon be destroyed.
Palla: I do not think so. Nor do I think you should feel troubled for our sake. You are our home, more than Macedon; our true house is the sky around you. We will always serve you, Commander, through thick and thin. I swear it.
Minerva: Palla...

Minerva and Catria (The Path I Chose)

Minerva: ......
Catria: Commander. ...Princess Minerva?
Minerva: Hm? Ah, sorry... Now I've taken to daydreaming on the battlefield. How Michalis would laugh.
Catria: Then...it was your brother you were thinking about?
Minerva: ...... He made his choice; I, mine. I've no time to stew in my own sorrow when my path is clear before me. Come, Catria. Hyah!

Minerva and Est (Fighting Her Hardest)

Est: Commander, did anybody tell you? I flew all the way to Grust and brought back Mercurius. Pretty spiffy, huh?
Minerva: Yes, Marth told me all about it. Very brave of you to undertake such a dangerous task alone. Well done, Est.
Est: Hee hee! You mean it? Thanks, Commander! You should have seen the arrows whooshing past me left and right! But I'm a Whitewing, right? So I swooped down and let 'em have it! Just watch, though. I'll find some way to top it.
Minerva: I don't doubt it. I expect great things from you, Est.
Est: Hee hee! You mean it?

Palla and Est (Comforting Words)

Est: Hey, Palla. I'm not slowing you and Catria down, am I?
Palla: Why would you say that?
Est: I don't know... You and she have so much more experience. Sometimes I... I just feel like I'm not pulling my load.
Palla: Ha ha... Est... You're doing just fine. There are no half-Whitewings or almost-Whitewings. You're one of us because you're every bit as good as us. Have a little confidence.
Est: Right, confidence...
Palla: ...Feel better?
Est: Uh-huh. Thanks, Palla. It's funny... Whenever I talk to you, I calm right down. Promise you'll always be there for me, Palla.
Palla: I will... I promise.

Catria and Est (Three as One)

Est: Catria!
Catria: Est! It's about time you made it back. I was so worried...
Est: Sorry... I won't leave you like that again. We belong together anyway. When the three of us surround an enemy, we're just about unstoppable!
Catria: True...but even so, I like having you somewhere I can keep an eye on you. Ha ha.
Est: Hey! What's that supposed to mean?

Tiki and Xane (Xane's Mischief)

Tiki: Huh? Xaney, where'd you go?
Xane (as Tiki): Huh? Xaney, where'd you go?
Tiki: Xaney?! Why are you imitating me!
Xane (as Tiki): Xaney?! Why are you imitating me!
Tiki: Cut that out right now!
Xane (as Tiki): Cut that out right now!
Tiki: Ugh, I HATE you, Xaney!
(Tiki leaves)
Xane (as Tiki): Huh? Hey, wait, Tiki! Oh, come on. I was just jokin' around! Trying' to lighten the mood!
(Xane transforms back into himself)
Xane: It's not like I can transform into a dragon like you so just— Oh, would you come back?
(Tiki reenters)
Tiki: Meanie.
Xane: So how are you holdin' up, kiddo?
Tiki: I'm all right.
Xane: Still having those bad dreams?
Tiki: Sometimes. They're really scary...
Xane: I bet they are. (...Ugh, what does Lord Gotoh expect me to do?)
Tiki: Did you say something?
Xane: Oh! No, no, it's nothin'. Hey, you know that Marth's countin' on those powers of yours.
Tiki: Uh-huh... Why?
Xane: So, uh...you just take care of yourself, that's all. You're one special kid.
Tiki: I know.

Merric and Elice (Tender Thoughts)

Merric: Princess Elice! You're safe!
Elice: Oh, my! Merric, is that you? I haven't seen you in ages... ...So you've been fighting with the League? Thank you for keeping Marth safe.
Merric: Well, I did learn a spell or two in Khadein. Here, Princess. Get behind me. I'll face the enemy for us both.
Elice: You'll...face the...? Aha ha, oh, Merric?
Merric: Wh...what's so funny, Princess? I was quite serious, I'll have you know!
Elice: Ha ha, forgive me, Merric. It's just, I remembered you when you were little... You were always a bit delicate. Oftentimes I had to nurse you back to health. Remember?
Merric: But that was— I couldn't— Yes.
Elice: And look at you now. Such a brave, strong man! A far cry from the old Merric. But you don't have to pretend. I know you're far too sweet to mow down hordes of enemies. And...I think I prefer it that way.
Merric: You...you do?
