[The Dreamberry is seated next to Ada, who can be seen picking and studying flowers in the field. She looks rather happy about it, humming softly to herself.

While she has a number of different flowers gathered in a small bouquet at her side, she still seems determined.]

I wonder what sort of flower Miss Vanessa would like.

[She hums thoughtfully to herself.]

I have to do something to thank her for agreeing to teach me.

[Her eyes finally rest on a beautiful red flower. The vibrant color of the flower makes her think of Vanessa in a way. It's an amaryllis, she remembers, after a long moment of thought.]

Maybe this one. I wonder if she'll like it. I hope so.

[Ada happily plucks the flowers, careful to preserve the stems the same way she watched Vanessa.]

Eh? M-My hobbies...?

[Noel never really discussed them to anyone before... Aside from Tsubaki and Makoto, but besides them... They were complete secrets. Kind of. Maybe it would be okay to tell Ada...]

Um... I-I like poetry and cooking, I guess. [Never mind the fact that she's completely terrible at both. She frowns though, at the notion of being 'strong'.]

I... wouldn't really consider myself 'strong'. I pretty much enlisted just to restore my adopted family's name... They wanted me to get a non-combative position, but... I was offered to have their noble status restored in exchange for me becoming a special solo combatant. Despite that, I'm still really shy and clumsy...

Those are really nice hobbies.

[Ada thought it was cute. Those were more feminine hobbies then some of her own but wasn't that a good thing?]

Still... I don't know if I could have done that myself. Most of the time I'm sure I probably don't live up to my family's name in most ways. But I try to at least be strong of heart so that someday I can.

R-Really? Um... Thank you.

[That was the first time that she's ever been complimented on her secret hobbies. It kind of felt nice. Noel frowns at the next thing Ada says, though.]

I'm sure you can, Miss Ada. I... I'd like to think that there's something that only some people can do. So... I think you can defend your family's honor in a way that only you can do. It's only a matter of discovering it.

[Ada considers this, and nods.]

Thank you... I think that's a good way to look at it. Everyone can do it, it's just a matter of how they can. Still... I want to try and move forward. That's why I'm going to learn how to fight.

[That's right... Elliot's going to teach her.]
