[the way i think anastasia would also want to spar on a date]
Of course! [goes to get training swords... once he takes his, she will assume her position.]
Come at me with all your strength!
[okay... anyway i would roll but while reirin is v diligent with practicing she has not actually fought in her entire life... she has only trained.... she will Lose,]
[this is not wrong because in the dlc iirc when lucien asks out of curiosity why she chose to become a knight she's like "duel me and i'll show you the answer that way"]
Very well—same to you!
[HELP SWEET REIRIN. lucien's no crius or even anastasia but according to himself in the fd he's like at the level where he'd be allowed to instruct in swordsmanship so there we go ig.]
THEIR BLADES CROSS TO DRAMATIC MUSIC..!!! but the victor is clear... Reirin is both disappointed and also thrilled, because there's nothing like Adrenaline to keep the heart pumping,]
It is my loss! Your skill is truly impressive, Lucien. I must train even harder from now on so I can defeat you...!
[lucien... he is so cute... please be happy forever (ignores the canon point you took for him).... he is also so nice to reirin.... who will absolutely take him up on this offer...]
Then shall we make this a regular occurrence? We could go on a friend date again tomorrow... And the day after that as well, and the day after...
In other words, you would like to spar every day? [reirin... though lucien doesn't think that's too odd, since] Well, for training, it is good to be diligent.
... I can understand how you feel. I am ashamed of some of my earlier progress, or lack thereof, now knowing what I am here for.
However, your Lady Keigetsu would surely not wish to see you unduly harmed for her sake. Neither would you be in your best condition without a break here and then.
[these wise words from lucien who offered to spill all of his life's blood in a chalice once..............]
It is true that she would be most upset if I were injured on her behalf. She would call me an ignoramus, a fool who pushes herself needlessly and ungraciously, someone who is more a hard-headed beetle than a delicate butterfly...

Given your passion, I've no doubt you could if you worked for it. I'd be happy to spar with you again.

I would! I confess, I love nothing more than the reward of physical exertion...
[she says this like it wasn't super obvious]
I would... also like to explore the mazes again. And to do that, I must become stronger. I did not go the week prior, much to my shame...
no subject
[but reirin sure does seem to love her physical activities.]
... Indeed, the mazes have continued to be dangerous. You needn't feel shamed over taking a break, though.

How can I hold myself back when Lady Keigetsu is waiting for me...? Even if I did not know it was her at the time...

[LUCIEN!!!!!!! PRINCE AMONG MEN HE CAN SHARE THAT POSITION WITH CHARLES]
I would also be pleased if Lady Keigetsu could laugh at me as well... But I am afraid all I do is upset her.
