Sorry if I'm interrupting anything, but I need your help with something...
Icon DMs REPLY
Is it something personal or work-related?
What's up? I'm on it!
Message Von Lycaon Icon
It's a personal affair. I apologize if you're disappointed.
Message Von Lycaon Icon
As you already know, my legs are completely mechanical.
Icon DMs REPLY
I didn't know that
Message Von Lycaon Icon
My apologies, it slipped my mind and I failed to inform you... Though, this isn't the crux of my issue today.
Are you thinking of getting more mechanical modifications done?
Message Von Lycaon Icon
That sounds like a great idea, but I have no such plans at the moment.
Message Von Lycaon Icon
You see, I'm looking for the videotape of a film named "Final Punch." I heard that the protagonist of the story also has mechanical legs, so my curiosity was piqued.
Message Von Lycaon Icon
When it comes to films, you're the first one that comes to mind. Do you have time to look for the videotape of "Final Punch" for me?
Icon DMs REPLY
Leave it to me
Message Von Lycaon Icon
You have my most sincere gratitude. I'll wait for your call then.
I'll get to it!
Message Von Lycaon Icon
You're as reliable as ever.

You really live up to your name as the best video store manager in New Eridu.

Thank you. I'll visit the store later to collect it.

Wait for Lycaon

Icon Dialogue Agent Commission Description

Lycaon said they would come to collect the "Final Punch" videotape in a while. I should wait a while.
(Wait until the next day)

Watch the videotape with Lycaon.

Icon Dialogue Agent Tracked Step Description

Lycaon is waiting for me near the video store. I should go find him.
(Idle)
Lycaon: I don't have much on my plate today. There should be enough time to finish "Final Punch."
(Talk to Lycaon)

Story summary:
"Attendant's Free Time..."
Accompanied by coffee sweets prepared by Lycaon, you watch "Final Punch" together. Despite the peculiar reason behind his choice, it turns out to be an enjoyable experience.
Lycaon: Hello there. I was just planning on contacting you. I didn't expect to see you here.
Lycaon: Do you perhaps have a moment? I'm here to collect the "Final Punch" videotape that I reserved.
Icon Dialogue Talk Wanna watch it together?
(ProtagonistProtagonist): I'm free right now. Wanna watch it together?
Lycaon: View a movie together with you? It would be my pleasure.
Lycaon: But prior, if I may, allow me to make adequate preparations, please.
Lycaon bows gracefully, then leaves for a moment, before soon returning to the entrance of the video store.
Lycaon: Sincerest apologies for the wait. Now then, let's get started.
You go with Lycaon into Random Play, and watch "Final Punch" together. Classic Lycaon! It turns out that he left earlier to prepare coffee and some dessert for the movie...
Lycaon: I do apologize. Time was short, so I had to purchase coffee from a nearby cafe and I'm afraid the roast is rather bland.
Lycaon: If I were brewing it, I would have chosen a far more aromatic bean.
Lycaon: And, what's more, the dessert is rather high in sugar, so I'm not sure it will be to your liking?
Icon Dialogue Talk It's all great!
(ProtagonistProtagonist): (‍They all taste great.They all taste great. / They all taste great!They all taste great!‍)
Lycaon: I'm so glad you do not dislike it. If I have sufficient time in the future, I'll prepare even better hors d'oeuvres.
Icon Dialogue Talk You sure come prepared.
(ProtagonistProtagonist): You sure come prepared...
Lycaon: You're too kind. You are an important partner, so it's my pleasure.
Lycaon: I confess, I also chose the film "Final Punch" according to my own tastes. I hope it was satisfactory.
Icon Dialogue Talk It's pretty nice...
(ProtagonistProtagonist): (‍It was pretty good.It was pretty good. / It was pretty good!It was pretty good!‍) I liked it.
Lycaon: So long as you were not bored.
Icon Dialogue Talk What did you think about the quality?
(ProtagonistProtagonist): What's your opinion of its quality?
Lycaon: It was excellent quality. But I have one burning question they never answered.
Lycaon: The synopsis says, there is "a young man who, after an amputation, equips himself with a robotic leg and enters boxing tournaments." Is the robotic leg in a movie about boxing used for comic effect? Or is there indeed a logical connection between the two?
Icon Dialogue Talk I don't think it's either...
(ProtagonistProtagonist): I don't think it's either...
Icon Dialogue Talk Why did you pick this one?
(ProtagonistProtagonist): It wasn't bad, but why did you pick this movie?
Lycaon: Hmm, you may find my reasoning a little absurd. In the synopsis, you see, it mentions a young man equips himself with a robotic leg to enter boxing tournaments —
Lycaon: Why does he choose boxing after installing a robotic leg? What is the logical connection between the two? I wanted to better understand, and therefore, I decided to carefully watch the whole movie.
Lycaon: But despite my scrutiny, the film provided me with no such answer.
Icon Dialogue Talk That sure is interesting reasoning...
(ProtagonistProtagonist): That's an interesting reason. You might have thought of something even the director didn't consider...
Lycaon: Thank you for watching the movie with me.
Icon Dialogue Talk You're welcome.
(ProtagonistProtagonist): You're welcome! Come back again soon.
Lycaon: Of course. If possible, I hope you can recommend me some interesting movies sometime.

(Lycaon can now promote the video store)
(Idle)
Lycaon: If we have the chance to watch movies together again, I'll prepare a more exquisite set of coffee and desserts for you.
(Talk to Lycaon again, optional)
Lycaon: Overall, "Final Punch" is a good movie.
Lycaon: Thank you kindly for your help, and I look forward to more movie recommendations from you.
