A Choco-Mad Cyclone
On a regular outing into town for supplies, (Captain) and crew walk past two girls excitedly talking about Valentine's Day. Grimnir, unable to help himself, begins to wonder about (Captain)'s Valentine's plans. Right before they return to the ship for the day, Grimnir suddenly declares he has something to do and drags Lyria and Vyrn with him back to town.
Valentine's Day is quickly approaching, but the crew's normal routine remains unchanging.
Today finds Grimnir, (Captain), Lyria, and Vyrn shopping in town for daily necessities.
Vyrn: Whew, having you around to carry stuff sure makes shopping a breeze. Thanks for the help, Windy!
Grimnir: Heh... To foster the tranquility of mortals, the full might of my power shall spare no undertaking.
Grimnir: Bearing the simple weight of this burden is no challenge for the Mad Cyclone, Tempest Incarnate.
Lyria: Thanks to your wind powers, we can leave the heavy lifting to you and buy more than usual!
Grimnir: Oh, quit it! My heart can only take so many compliments!
As the crew strolls down the street, two girls come chattering by.
Girl 1: Oh hey, did you already decide who you're gonna give chocolates to for Valentine's?
Girl 2: Huh? Yeah, but... you've gotta tell me who you're giving chocolates to first!
Girl 1: Fiiine, but you better tell me after! Now lean in close so no one else can hear, 'kay?
Girl 2: You sure gave in fast! I wonder who it is...
Girl 2: What? Seriously? I was expecting someone else!
Grimnir: Hm?
Grimnir's eyes curiously follow the excited girls as they walk past.
Lyria: Grimnir, is something wrong?
Grimnir: Nah, I was just kinda distracted by how lively those two girls were.
Vyrn: I guess they did seem pretty pumped up for Valentine's, huh?
Grimnir: This "Valentine's" thing sounds pretty familiar...
Lyria: Valentine's is a day for giving chocolates to people who are important to you, so you can show how much you appreciate them.
Grimnir: Ohhh, that thing! So that's what you call it! I think I remember reading about it somewhere.
Grimnir: Doesn't everyone get all crazy for it every year, trying to prepare homemade sweets and whatnot?
Vyrn: They sure do. Those girls that passed us by were talking about who they were gonna give their Valentine's gifts to.
Lyria: Hehe... It's so fun to think about what chocolates to get and who to give them to.
Grimnir: Hm... Chocolates and their recipients...
Grimnir's gaze falls to the form of (Captain) walking by his side.
Grimnir: (Is (Captain) going to give somebody chocolates too?)
Grimnir: (I guess to Lyria and Vyrn? Or maybe even... me?)
Grimnir: (Wait, stop it, me! Being nosy is most uncouth!)
Grimnir: (The singularity is free to give chocolates to whomever! It's none of my business!)
Feeling the weight of Grimnir's intense stare, (Captain) turns and gives him a smile.
Choose: Did you want chocolates?
Grimnir: M-me... Meee? Want ch-chocolates?
Grimnir: N-not really! I'm not that interested in Valentine's chocolate or whatever!
Vyrn: Huh... That so? I figured you'd be all over it.
Lyria: That's too bad. Chocolate is so tasty...
Vyrn: If you don't want 'em, you don't gotta eat 'em. Anyway, let's hurry on back to the ship!
Choose: Want to give someone chocolates?
Grimnir: G-give... Giiive? Someone ch-chocolates?
Grimnir: I'm the God of War! Shouldn't mortals be, like, the ones giving chocolates to me?
Vyrn: If you put it that way... Guess I've never heard of a god doing the Valentine's giftin'.
Grimnir: I-in the first place, I'm not that interested in Valentine's chocolate or whatever!
Lyria: I don't think it really matters if you're a god or not when it comes to giving chocolates though!
Vyrn: Up to you what you wanna do, really. Anyway, let's hurry on back to the ship!

Grimnir: O-okay...
The four make haste for the Grandcypher, Grimnir fidgeting the whole time.
Grimnir: Oh! I almost forgot! I gotta do something, so you guys can go on ahead!
Suspicious of Grimnir's strange behavior, (Captain) volunteers to tag along.
Grimnir: N-no! Uh... Don't you have requests to fill soon? Stuff that'll keep you busy?
Grimnir: I don't wanna bother you, so... How about the red dragon and girl in blue come with me instead?
Lyria: Sure! If it's all right with you, I'd love to join!
Vyrn: Now hold on just a second. What makes you think we're not busy too?
Lyria: Oh, Vyrn! We really are free though, so why not?
Grimnir: Please, Red Dragon? C'mon! Pretty please!
Vyrn: Well... If you're beggin' that much, I guess I can join too.
Grimnir: Really? Thanks, you guys!
(Captain)'s earlier concern is assuaged after Lyria and Vyrn agree to accompany Grimnir.
With a wave, (Captain) sees the three off as they turn around and head back into town.
