[As their fingers are laced together, Aether blushes bright. He's never thought that something like this would be actually possible and the princess's joy over the entire affair adds up to his embarrassment. Meanwhile, Childe seems pleased, as everything is going just how he wanted. He offers Elise a date with Luke and the girl seems completely lost at first. She takes a step back, hands now over her mouth again.]
Oh, goodness, I-I... [It clearly is very sudden to her and she looks away for a moment, swaying lightly in her place as if carried away with her emotions. She's obviously very eager, but she takes a moment to think about it. Eventually her hands move to her cheeks, but she's smiling.]
Sir Childe, you're not only charming but also so considerate. I see the prince is in good hands. [She giggles softly and Aether's face burns bright this time. It seems he's the only one in here that still has some doubts left, while the other two have fun.]
You... you're really okay with this? [He suddenly speaks up.] We'll still have to marry...
[There's a deep frown on his face, his voice is showing worry. The princess looks at him surprised, then, still embarrassed herself, she smiles kindly, her brows softly raised up.]
It's really okay. I'm happy I can help. And I... I knew you wouldn't love me.
[The last part is spoken quietly, but it still crushes his heart.]
