You get the feeling you need to train a bit more with your clumsy front-line...

Thought a two-man party isn't typical among adventurers, you and your partner have made your duo work, taking on quite a few bounties and proving other doubtful adventurers wrong. It's worked in part to your party's composition, with your partner, Madeleine, taking the front-line head-on with her bulky armor and wide bastard sword while you, the ingenious wizard, sling spells to take out any beast hiding in the back or to help push Madeline's advance.

Despite your initial successes taking on easier bounties, though, you've found you've run into a problem with Madeleine: she's just so clumsy! For whatever reason, she won't stop coming to close, stepping on your toes or narrowly stepping into your spells as you try to cast them! Coming in from another bounty where you're both barely standing from the exertion of trying not to die, you figure now's the time to broach the subject to her, wondering whether you might be better off just finding someone else to adventure with...

Little do you know, the real reason why she's been slipping so close to you during fights is that she's started to form a crush on you, and is eager to protect you from any blow, no matter if you can defend yourself just fine!

She's tall and she's French.
