We had that, too. Unless I needed something to take the edge off, I always preferred hot chocolate.

I think wine tastes horrible.

But oh, I know hot chocolate! Prompto made it for me when I visited him. It was very good. Sweet.

My default drink is whiskey, but I suspect you wouldn't think it's much better.

That's my favorite. I drink coffee for the caffeine, but if I want something I'll enjoy, it's hot chocolate with whipped cream and cinnamon.

I haven't tried it, but if it's an alcohol, I'd rather not.

But hot chocolate with whipped cream and cinnamon sounds much more like something I'd like. I think I only had the... is it the normal version that only has the hot chocolate?

Staying away from those would be smart.

Yeah, that's the normal version. You could get whipped cream most places where I'm from, but cinnamon was a family preference before I even knew I had one.

I must remember to try it your way, then.

Wait... you didn't know you had a family? Or a preference?

You should, you might like it. And even if the cinnamon isn't for you, whipped cream makes most things better.

The first one.

I can believe that.

You didn't know that you had a family?

I'm sorry, you don't need to tell me. It's just... did you learn of them, afterwards? Did you get to meet them? I hope you did.

Chocolate also makes most things better, but it's already there.

I was born the same day a curse was cast over my parents' kingdom. They used magic to help me escape, but the curse made them forget who they were. I grew up without them.

[ it's mostly behind her now. she has a family and she knows they love her, but at the next question, she smiles.]

I did. After the curse was broken, we had a chance to be a family.

[ she takes in all the information, puzzling over it. ]

Then... your parents are a king and a queen? I should call you my lady.

I'm glad you had that chance. They must have been happy to see you again.

You should call me Emma, it's the only thing I go by, except weird savior references.

They were. I was the one who made things difficult. Being a part of a family took some getting used to.

Alright... Emma, then.

I think I understand. It's hard to get used to having people who love you around when you've gone a long time without anyone to trust in.

That's better.

Yeah, sometimes it feels like relying on other people is too much of a risk.
