Oh - I already know an Ame-san, so I wouldn't know what to do if there were two... but if you don't like it, I can try to call you what you'd prefer.

[buzen and his nicknames right off the bat like he's known people 2 whole seconds,,]

But haha, that sounds really pretty! I haven't heard of it before, so we must be from different places. Though - ah...

Isn't "Saillune" [he copies the way she said it, intonation and all] your name too...?

[saillune]

Hehe. I've never had a nickname before...

[Well, it sounds like she doesn't dislike it.]

... Oh, yes! I'm a member of the Saillune royal family. A princess.

[hasteful]

Oh yeah? Then Lia-san it is! Congratulations on your first nickname.

[and he grins a little bit at that,]

It's funny you didn't mention it. Do you normally have to hide it? I can keep your secret safe, if you want.

[even tho he wouldn't be surprised if others figure it out,]

[saillune]

Oh, I'm not worried about hiding it. I'd rather be honest with people, and I doubt my title means anything here, anyway.

[and yeah it's real easy to figure out when your country is right there in your name.]

But thank you for your consideration! It's very kind of you, um... Mister Buzen, was it?

[hasteful]

Ah, Buzen's fine... I keep getting spoken to pretty politely here, but I think I'm a pretty casual guy.

[he has good manners but is very used to being treated more familiarly than anything,]

But of course! I've never met a princess before, so I just wanna make sure I'm not being rude.

[despite instantly being on nickname basis? ok,]

[saillune]

Casual suits me just fine! In my position, I usually don't get to have many friends that I can speak freely around... It's nice to not have to worry about decorum.

[hasteful]

Ah, I bet! Then so long as you're okay with it.

[he just laughs]

Some swords serve nobility families, or things like that - but I'm not among them. So I guess I've still got a lot to learn.

[saillune]

Swords...?

[Does he mean like "hired swords," as in mercenaries, or...]

[hasteful]

Oh - ah.... How do I explain...

[he places a hand over his heart]

I'm a sword that's lived for hundreds of years - that's been summoned in a human form? Does that make sense...?

[how familiar is amelia with the idea of ikemen gijinkas]

[saillune]

... Ahh! Another sword spirit!

[Good news: he doesn't have to explain the whole thing.]

I never thought I'd meet two in one day!

[hasteful]

Oh, you've met Matsu!

[he seems both relieved and excited about this]

Good, good, I'm sure he explained it way better than I can. He's way smarter than I am.

[saillune]

[She laughs a little at that.]

I think I understand, thanks to him! But you shouldn't sell yourself short, either!
