I almost let lunch break end without getting the plants I need for class.

I may have gotten a smidgen caught up in teasing Silver and Sebek.

Today I need... Twilight Grass. That should be grown near these flower pots...

 * colspan="2" |Hm? There's a quarrel somewhere.

I would rather not get caught up in all that, so I'll just find a tree to hide behind to sneak a peak.
 * colspan="2" |That is my Lamp Blossom. I've been taking really good care of it and now it's nectar is finally ready to harvest!

 * colspan="2" |Well, thanks for takin' such good care of it for us. You know this garden is for all students to use.
 * class="character" |Savanaclaw Student B
 * colspan="2" |We need this plant too, you know. We heard you can sell it for a pretty pile of madol.
 * class="character" |Savanaclaw Student C
 * colspan="2" |You're a first-year, aren't you? We're second years, so that means you hafta show your elders respect.
 * colspan="2" |Wat's that gotta do with this?
 * colspan="2" |Oh no, getting surrounded by some bad-mannered delinquents certainly isn't fun. It must be the fate of all us adorable shorties.

That being said, those second-years seem to be enjoying picking on someone smaller than them. This is hard to watch.
 * colspan="2" |I said...give it back!

On the battlefield a moment's hesitation can mean life or death. Those with good instincts who don't hesitate make good soldiers.

That being said...

 * colspan="2" |Don't think we're gonna go easier on ya just because of your delicate features! Go back to your fancy dorm to do embroidery or something!

*sigh* It's all fine and dandy to hate losing, but three against one aren't great odds.

I couldn't bare to turn a blind eye to this little chick with the bright future. Just which one should I lend a hand to?
 * colspan="3" style="text-align:center" |*rustle*
 * colspan="2" |That's enough!
 * colspan="2" |Huh? You're...
 * class="character" |Savanaclaw Student C
 * colspan="2" |Crap! That's Lilia Vanrouge, the vice leader of Diasomnia.

As far as I can see, you're second-years while I'm a third-year...

Aren't juniors supposed to respect their elders?
 * class="character" |Savanaclaw Student A
 * colspan="2" |Say what?! This eavesdropper was listening in on our conversation!
 * colspan="2" |Um... Lilia, sir. I'm handlin'... No. This is my problem to solve.

There's nothing wrong with sparring with someone of higher skill. I won't do anything to bad, so sit back and watch.

 * colspan="2" |Hmph. Fine. If you want the damn flowers so bad then take 'em by force!

Scaredy cats. I don't need magic to have you tasting the sweet earth.

 * colspan="2" |He took out three guys that were so much bigger than him all at once. I can't believe my eyes.

Here I was thinking I needed this for my next class, but I was wrong! Oh gosh, how very careless of me.

Here, Epel. I don't need it so back to you it goes.
 * colspan="2" |I-I really don't see how you're being careless...
 * colspan="2" |I-I really don't see how you're being careless...

...Um, Lilia? I get the feeling that you're tyring to be considerate and all, but that flower is yours.
 * colspan="2" |Hm? Why's that?

Despite your demure appearance you've got quite a bit of moxie, I see.
 * colspan="2" |Same goes for you.
 * colspan="2" |Same goes for you.
 * colspan="2" |Same goes for you.

You're about the same size as me, but you took out those big and buff second-years without breaking a sweat. Just who are you?
 * colspan="2" |Heh, actually...
 * colspan="2" |Heh, actually...
 * colspan="2" |Heh, actually...

...I used to be obsessed with fighting games. Over the course of that obsession, I learned out ot perform those moves myself.
 * colspan="2" |You got that strong just from playing games?
 * colspan="2" |That was a joke.
 * colspan="2" |Huh?
 * colspan="2" |Anyway. I like how you didn't falter or give an inch against an opponent that was tougher than you quite a bit!

Especially that combo you pulled off at the start. You could polish that to a wonderful shine.
 * colspan="2" |You're not joking...are you?
 * colspan="2" |I am not. There is a style of fighting the works perfectly with those of us of small stature.

Would you like me to show you a thing or two?
 * colspan="2" |Y-Yes, please!
 * colspan="2" |Then, lesson one for fighting at a smaller stature: find an opening!
 * colspan="2" |Y-Yes, please!

 * colspan="2" |Then, lesson one for fighting at a smaller stature: find an opening!

It's never a good plan to try fighting someone larger than you head on. They'll simply overpower you.

That's why you must find an opening. Keep dodging your opponent's attack and wait for your chance to strike.
 * colspan="2" |What? That seems a little unmanly...I guess.
 * colspan="2" |Just listen. If a small guy keeps dancing around their larger opponent, that will end up irritating them.

Chip away at their patience and their attacks will become more reckless. That's your chance to get inside their guard and let loose.

Aim for their weak points to seal the deal.
 * colspan="2" |I see! The bigger the opponent, the bigger their strike zones...right?
 * colspan="2" |Precisely! Next, lesson two: when facing more than one opponent, hide in the shadow of your target.

For example, if you use person A as a shield, then you can strike person B from their blindspot.

This is a strategy we can use only because we're smaller!
 * colspan="2" |From listening to all this I'm starting to think being short isn't such a drawback.
 * colspan="2" |There you go. Appearance and strength are not related. The power of your fists isn't what's important, it's technique. Also...

Um...would you be willing to help me with training again in the future?
 * colspan="2" |Sure. I'll help you if the fancy strikes me.
 * colspan="2" |Heck yeah!
 * colspan="2" |Make sure to keep up with your own training in the mean time. Then, I'll be off.
