[Huh.]

Then it should not be a problem. I myself have kissed some people last month and it was quite nice... But he started being strange just after this happened?

You have tried talking to him, right?

[unyieldingmarch]

Yes, and he simply stiffens up and refuses to speak on it.

[It's almost like him not telling her something bothers her...]

[thejoyrider]

Hmm...

[Not that it was any of her business, but Marie rarely cared about that when asking personal questions]

Have the two of you ever kissed before this happened? Or after? Or is this something you would only do under an enchantment?

[unyieldingmarch]

Goddess, no! That is not the nature of our relationship at all.

[And after, he's barely spoken to her.]

I think it unlikely we would kiss without the enchantment.

[Except, he had kissed her...]

[thejoyrider]

I see, I see... There’s one thing in this story that seems quite curious though, Edelgard. If I might... Did you not say that the two of you happened to kiss twice?

[One time should break the enchantment for good]

Or did you end up being caught by the mistletoe two separate times?

[unyieldingmarch]

Yes...he did kiss me a second time.

[Edelgard frowns, puzzled.]

Do you think that could have had something to do with it?

[thejoyrider]

I do not know your exact situation. However...

[Marie gives Edelgard a serious look]

Whenever I ended up under the mistletoe with someone, we only kissed once. All compulsion to do anything of that sort would disappear by then.

[unyieldingmarch]

I...see.

[...hmm...that...]

So he kissed me of how own accord...

[She needs a moment to process what this means, exactly.]

Do you think he might...be...?

[thejoyrider]

[Looks like Edelgard does not want to say this out loud. It’s okay, Marie will just do that instead!]

In love with you? I would say that it is quite possible!

[unyieldingmarch]

I...see.

[Edelgard frowns, a look of pinched confusion on her face.]

That seems a touch outlandish given...who I am and who he is. But I am admittedly well out of my depth dealing with such.

[thejoyrider]

Birthright and royal upbringing aside...

[If that’s even possible for Edelgard]

How do you feel about him? That’s what’s important here. You do not have to follow any other rules than your own after all. Especially in matters of heart.

[unyieldingmarch]

Hubert? He's a good man. He's handsome, but...I don't know if I feel that way about him. Or anyone, to be honest.

[she's sorting her life out first. With revolution.]

[thejoyrider]

That’s absolutely fine. I am sure he wouldn’t want to force you into anything. You just need to talk about it!

[Revolutions are a touchy subject for Marie, but she obviously supports any kind of sorting out one’s life]
