| 1 | qst700605_msg0001 | 84 | Hey, you're back! So how'd it go? |
| 2 | qst700605_msg0002 | 84 | That's roughly what happened. |
| 3 | qst700605_msg0003 | 84 | I'm sorry we couldn't have been
more help, lad. |
| 4 | qst700605_msg0004 | 84 | Nah, it's fine. It's not your fault
anyways. |
| 5 | qst700605_msg0005 | 84 | It just proves my invention needs more
work. This was just a prototype! |
| 6 | qst700605_msg0006 | 84 | But I guess it'll be a bit longer before
I can make that medicine for her... |
| 7 | qst700605_msg0007 | 84 | Medicine? What now? |
| 8 | qst700605_msg0008 | 84 | Waaaaaaaaiiiit!!! |
| 9 | qst700605_msg0009 | 84 | Ever so sorry, but would you mind if
I borrowed a moment of your time? |
| 10 | qst700605_msg0010 | 84 | Um...sure...? |
| 11 | qst700605_msg0011 | 84 | I couldn't help but overhear the word
"invention," you see. |
| 12 | qst700605_msg0012 | 84 | Might we attribute this invention to
your esteemed persons? |
| 13 | qst700605_msg0013 | 84 | Oh, no, not us. That honor goes to
this boy here. |
| 14 | qst700605_msg0014 | 84 | What's that?! This stripling built it?! |
| 15 | qst700605_msg0015 | 84 | ...Who's this geezer? |
| 16 | qst700605_msg0016 | 84 | An excellent question, my dear boy! |
| 17 | qst700605_msg0017 | 84 | It is I, the greatest inventor that
Torna has ever known! A man known
only as...Gideon. |
| 18 | qst700605_msg0018 | 84 | Um...I wasn't asking you... |
| 19 | qst700605_msg0019 | 84 | Now, that's entirely besides the point.
Gideon has noticed your talent, young
man. Of that, you should be thankful! |
| 20 | qst700605_msg0020 | 84 | He's not even listening... |
| 21 | qst700605_msg0021 | 84 | What is your name, boy? |
| 22 | qst700605_msg0022 | 84 | M...Marcus. What about it? |
| 23 | qst700605_msg0023 | 84 | Marvellous! Well then, from this day
forth, Marcus, I would like to take you
under my wing! How about that, eh? |
| 24 | qst700605_msg0024 | 84 | What, you want to teach me stuff?
Nah, thanks. I'm not interested. |
| 25 | qst700605_msg0025 | 84 | Good heavens! Are you quite sure?
Why, I can think of dozens of children
who would jump at such a chance! |
| 26 | qst700605_msg0026 | 84 | Go ask those other children then.
I don't want to. |
| 27 | qst700605_msg0027 | 84 | Wait. Let me step in for a moment here. |
| 28 | qst700605_msg0028 | 84 | Pardon? |
| 29 | qst700605_msg0029 | 84 | Marcus, look at it this way. |
| 30 | qst700605_msg0030 | 84 | Ultimately, you want to perfect your
machine, yes? |
| 31 | qst700605_msg0031 | 84 | Does it matter how you go about
doing that? Isn't what matters that
you succeed? |
| 32 | qst700605_msg0032 | 84 | Ah! |
| 33 | qst700605_msg0033 | 84 | I think it would be best for you learn
the skills you need from this man, and
then bring your goal to fruition. |
| 34 | qst700605_msg0034 | 84 | That is, if you feel you can tolerate
his eccentric ramblings... |
| 35 | qst700605_msg0035 | 84 | But I think this is well within the
realms of your ability, don't you? |
| 36 | qst700605_msg0036 | 84 | Yeah, yeah, I get it already! |
| 37 | qst700605_msg0037 | 84 | So... |
| 38 | qst700605_msg0038 | 84 | Yeah, I'll do it. I'll give a go! |
| 39 | qst700605_msg0039 | 84 | If this weirdo knows how to build
stuff, he can teach me for all he's
worth! |
| 40 | qst700605_msg0040 | 84 | I'm not gonna let one stupid little
failure get me down, nu-uh! |
| 41 | qst700605_msg0041 | 84 | That's a good lad. If only everyone
had your spirit! |
| 42 | qst700605_msg0042 | 84 | You sure about this? That was pretty
reckless, getting him fired up like that. |
| 43 | qst700605_msg0043 | 84 | It'll be fine. |
| 44 | qst700605_msg0044 | 84 | He learned a valuable lesson today:
that failure paves the way to success. |
| 45 | qst700605_msg0045 | 84 | If you've risen up from the jaws of
defeat once, you can survive in almost
any environment after that. |
| 46 | qst700605_msg0046 | 84 | And that's not all. |
| 47 | qst700605_msg0047 | 84 | Oh? |
| 48 | qst700605_msg0048 | 84 | He also reminded me of something
I'd almost forgotten. |
| 49 | qst700605_msg0049 | 84 | That anyone, if they believe in
themselves enough, has the power
to overcome any hardship. |
| 50 | qst700605_msg0050 | 84 | When you're an adult, it's easy to lose
sight of that simple fact. |
| 51 | qst700605_msg0051 | 84 | ...Is that a lesson you had to learn? |
| 52 | qst700605_msg0052 | 84 | Maybe, maybe not... |
| 53 | qst700605_msg0053 | 84 | Meanie. |
| 54 | qst700605_msg0054 | 84 | Anyway, I think we're done here. |
| 55 | qst700605_msg0055 | 84 | Time we made a move. See you,
Marcus. I'm sure we'll cross paths
again! |
| 56 | qst700605_msg0056 | 84 | Yeah, buh-bye! Thanks for everything! |
