Clair Obscur: Expedition 33
A conversation takes place between Maelle and Verso at [00:42]. Verso says, "Youre tired of painting, arent you?" [00:55] Maelle says, "Im tired too." [01:02] Maelle asks, "Why did you run in? Its dangerous for you here." [01:37] Verso replies, "See things as they are. Not how you want them to be." [01:42] Maelle asks, "What?" [01:48] Verso says, "You lied to your father." [01:51] Maelle replies, "No, I." [01:55] Verso says, "He saw it too. But he wanted to believe." [01:57] Verso asks, "Youre going to die here. Why dont you just leave? You can always come back." [02:05] Maelle replies, "The moment I leave, Papa will erase this canvas." [02:11] Verso says, "This is not worth your life." [02:14] Maelle asks, "What life? My life of loneliness in a shell of a body? With no voice and no future?" [02:17] Verso says, "Youre Maelle, no matter where you are. You dont need this canvas." [02:26] Maelle says, "But everything I want is here. Here I have a chance to live, Verso, to live. Out there, I merely exist." [02:31] Verso says, "Life keeps forcing cruel choices." [02:43] Maelle replies, "Stop quoting Papa!" [02:45] Verso says, "Its time to stop painting." [03:03] Maelle replies, "Verso" [03:13] Maelle says, "Papa also said, Hold on to each other." [03:19] Verso says, "Im sorry." [03:43] Maelle asks, "What about Lune and Sciel and Monoco? What about Esquie?" [05:01] Verso says, "Sciel was right. Grief blinds us. All you see are walls." [05:07] Verso says, "Ive lived a long time, Maelle. There are things we can never outrun." [05:47] Maelle says, "Im so tired, Verso. Please, can we just go home and talk about this?" [05:50] Verso says, "Alicia, I beg you, stop him from painting." [07:17] Maelle replies, "Dont say that, please, dont say that." [07:27] Verso says, "Hey, please, listen to me. Only you can do this. You can do this, please. Unpaint me. Unpaint me!" [07:38] Maelle replies, "Verso" [07:47] Verso says, "Please. I dont want this life. I dont want this life... I dont want this life..." [07:52] Maelle replies, "Stop saying that." [07:55] Maelle says, "I just - I just wanted to live this lifetime together. This lifetime that was stolen from us. Please, Brother... Please." [08:04] Verso says, "I dont want this life." [08:20] Verso says, "Help me help me" [08:30] Maelle says, "If you could grow old... Would you... find a reason to smile?" [09:20]
